Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

Chapter 1447 Lu Feng, Xiao Mei

On this side, Xiaomei got off work and Lu Feng also wanted to go back, so they left together.

Lu Feng lives in the old house left to him by his mother. After he became rich, he still lives here and is reluctant to move away. This is where he had the happiness of his childhood.

The two came to a slightly old door. Lu Feng stopped and scratched his head awkwardly. His hair danced between his fingers, which seemed to be a true reflection of his mood at the moment.

Xiaomei looked at this somewhat old villa and felt strange. Why would Lu Feng live in such a place? Shouldn't he live in a big villa like Fu Yanchen and the others?

Lu Feng spoke up, "Well... my house, um, might be a little messy."

His voice was trembling, as if he was having difficulty speaking. As he spoke, he would steal glances at the other person from time to time, his eyes revealing a hint of guilt and uneasiness.

"Xiao Mei...you have to be mentally prepared. My room is too messy. I know this may not be good, but I really have no choice."

He went on to explain, “There are so many things to do in the company that I have to work until very late every day. Sometimes I don’t even have time to go home.”

He paused, took a deep breath, and then continued, "And even if I go back, I'll be exhausted as a puddle of mud and won't have the energy to clean the room. So, I can only ask temporary workers to help."

At this point, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he almost whispered, "I know this is not good, but I really have no other choice. As a bachelor..."

Xiao Mei heard this and the corners of her mouth curled up into a warm arc. Her smile was like a flower blooming in spring, bright and moving. "It's okay, Brother Lu."

Her voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of waking something, but it carried a firmness that was impossible to ignore.

"I'm the best at cleaning the house." She said with a smile, a gleam of confidence in her eyes.

Then she paused for a moment, as if thinking about what to say next.

Then, she took a deep breath and continued, "From now on, let me help you clean up. This will not only save the cost of hiring temporary workers, but also make your home tidier and warmer."

His words reveal a love for life and concern for others that move people.

As she spoke, she gently patted Lu Feng's shoulder. Although the action was light, it seemed to dispel all the worries in his heart.

Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, and then a touch of emotion flashed in his eyes.

He looked at the woman in front of him and felt a warm feeling in his heart.

He knew that from this moment on, his life might become different because of Xiaomei's appearance.

He nodded, a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth. In that smile, there was both gratitude and expectation for the future.

The two smiled at each other and then opened the door.

It's really messy in there.

While packing, Xiao Mei asked, "It's just... Brother Lu, you... are not badly off, why do you live in a house like this?"

Xiaomei frowned slightly, and lightly pointed at the slightly old villa with her slender fingers, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

The villa has a quaint exterior, and the years have left mottled traces on it, like the whisper of time, telling stories of the past.

When Lu Feng heard this, a complex look flashed across his eyes, which contained nostalgia, emotion, and a hint of loneliness that was barely noticeable.

"This is what my mother left for me," he began slowly, his voice low and full of emotion, "She...left me for several years."

After saying this, he sighed softly, with a hint of sadness in his breath, like the yellow leaves falling in autumn, with a hint of reluctance and helplessness.

When Xiaomei heard this, she suddenly felt a surge of regret in her heart. The regret came like a tide and drowned her heart.

"I'm sorry, I...I don't know."

She whispered, her voice full of guilt and self-blame, as if she had accidentally touched the scar in his heart, making him recall the past that he didn't want to mention.

Lu Feng looked at her, with a warm light flashing in his eyes. The light was like the warm sun in winter, instantly dispelling the coldness in his heart.

"It's okay, Mei."

He said softly, with a faint smile on his lips, a smile that showed understanding and tolerance, "It's all over.

Xiaomei was quick and efficient, and in no time she had tidied up the first floor of Lu Feng's villa, making it look brand new.

She dusted her hands and looked around with satisfaction, as if admiring her own masterpiece.

Then, she slowly walked to the sofa, sat down lightly, and leaned forward slightly, as if she had something to say.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and quickly took out her cell phone from her pocket. The screen flashed at her fingertips, reflecting her serious face.

"Brother Lu," she asked, with a hint of uneasiness in her voice, "How much is the rent per month? I'll give you the money."

Lu Feng stood aside, looking at her like this, and a warm current surged in his heart, mixed with smiles and tenderness.

"I……"

He was about to speak when he suddenly realized that he had never thought about collecting rent from her.

Xiaomei is Xiaoxiao's friend, so helping her is a natural thing for him. How could he talk about money?

But he also knew that Xiaomei had a strong sense of self-esteem and would definitely not be willing to accept help without any reason.

So, he raised his lips with a playful smile, which was a bit teasing, "You are helping me with work, aren't you? That will pay for the rent. If you think it's cheap, you can also cook a meal for me occasionally."

After he finished speaking, he blinked, as if waiting for the other party's reaction.

When Xiaomei heard this, she was stunned at first, and then a bright smile broke out on her face. That smile was like a flower blooming in spring, bright and moving.

"Brother Lu, is this a good deal for you?"

"It's a good deal. Part-time workers are very expensive. It costs several thousand a month."

Lu Feng said with a smile, which contained a hint of ridicule and complacency, as if he was proud of his own cleverness.

He leaned back on the sofa, a cunning gleam in his eyes.

Xiaomei raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and then a playful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"So expensive?"

Lu Feng nodded.

"Well... we have decided so happily. I will help you clean and cook to pay for my rent."

But... we are a single man and a single woman after all, so it is not appropriate for us to live together like this. You have helped me so much, I will find a suitable house and move out to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles."

Lu Feng...he didn't think it was that complicated.

"But don't worry, even if I move away, I will come over from time to time to help you clean, and I will definitely not charge any fees! After all, you've been so good to me, how can I not repay you? Don't hire a part-time worker."

After saying that, Xiaomei blinked, and there was both mischief and gratitude in her eyes.

She knew that although Lu Feng's words seemed like a joke, he actually took her best interests into consideration. He not only solved her housing problem but also maintained her self-esteem.

She couldn't help but feel a warm current in her heart, and her liking for Lu Feng deepened a little bit.

Seeing her like this, Lu Feng was even happier. He sat up straight, his eyes full of seriousness and sincerity. "Xiaomei, no, I..." His words were filled with hesitation and concern, as if he was confirming the other party's determination.

He wanted to say that he... didn't need that little money

Xiaomei interrupted him, her smile still as bright as ever. "Brother Lu, stop talking nonsense, it's settled."

Her voice was full of firmness and determination, as if she was telling Lu Feng that her decision could not be changed.

During the time she spent with Lu Feng, she felt unprecedented ease and comfort, and she was unwilling to give up this friendship easily.

"Okay, as you wish."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and there was both tacit understanding and expectation in that smile.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on them through the window, adding a touch of warmth to this cozy scene.

Lu Feng stood up, stretched his slightly stiff body, and then gave Xiaomei a gentle smile. The smile contained both relief after being tired and anticipation for the peaceful life that was to come.

"You can go upstairs now and get familiar with the environment of my room. By the way, you can see which bedroom you want to stay in. It's up to you. You can do it yourself."

His words were full of casualness and trust, as if he had completely handed the family over to Xiaomei and let her make the decisions.

Xiaomei's eyes flashed with surprise and gratitude when she heard this. She knew that this was Lu Feng's trust and respect for her, and also a recognition of her ability.

She nodded, a bright smile on her face, "Okay, then I'll go upstairs and look for a bedroom that I like."

After saying that, she turned around and walked briskly towards the stairs. Her back was full of energy and expectation. Xiaomei stepped onto the stairs and walked upstairs step by step.

The wooden treads of the stairs creaked slightly, as if welcoming my arrival.

Xiaomei walked slowly, feeling the atmosphere of the house.

When she got upstairs, the first thing she saw was a long corridor with several doors on both sides, which should be the bedrooms.

I gently pushed open the first door, and inside was a spacious and bright room. The sunlight shone through the window onto the ground, forming patches of mottled light and shadows.

The layout of the room is simple, but gives people a comfortable feeling.

Then I pushed open the second door, which was a slightly smaller bedroom, but its window faced a beautiful garden, from which I could see all kinds of flowers and green trees, which made me feel happy.

I continued to explore the other rooms, each with its own unique character and charm.

Some rooms have a large balcony overlooking the entire neighborhood; some rooms have a comfortable sofa and a TV, suitable for rest and entertainment.

After looking at all the rooms, Xiaomei already had a favorite choice in her mind.

Going back downstairs, he said to Lu Feng, "I want to live in the bedroom with the window facing the garden, is that ok?"

"Of course." Lu Feng said. After a moment, he picked up his phone and opened the food delivery app. "I'm too tired today. Let's order takeout. What do you want to eat?"

There was a hint of inquiry and concern in his voice, as if he was asking for Xiaomei's opinion.

Xiao Mei came down from upstairs and just happened to hear Lu Feng's words. She walked to the sofa and sat down, tilting her head and thinking for a while, "Well... I want to eat steak and some pasta, how about it? Brother Lu, what do you want to eat?"

Her words were full of anticipation and excitement, as if they were a desire for delicious food and a love for life.

Hearing this, Lu Feng smiled and said, "I'll just eat something casually, a hamburger set will be fine."

"Hamburgers? They're not nutritious. Brother Lu, what do you have in the fridge? I'll make them."

"There are steaks."

"Wow, then I'm going to make it myself. Brother Lu, I'm really good at frying steak! I'll let you taste my cooking later, and I guarantee you'll be full of praise!"

After saying this, she patted her chest confidently, looking both cute and funny.

"Okay, I'll wait for your steak."

Lu Feng said with a smile, his smile full of expectation and encouragement, as if he was cheering Xiaomei on.

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes flashing with excitement, as if he could already anticipate the fragrant, tender and juicy steak.

Hearing this, Xiaomei curled up her lips into a confident smile, which showed both confidence in her cooking skills and gratitude towards Lu Feng.

She turned around and ran briskly towards the kitchen, her back full of energy and enthusiasm.

In the kitchen, the sound of pots and pans colliding could be heard, like a cheerful piece of music, playing the melody of life.

Lu Feng sat on the sofa, hearing the busy sounds coming from the kitchen, but his heart was filled with peace and satisfaction.

He knew that where Xiaomei was, there would be laughter and warmth, as well as delicious food and surprises.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The aroma of steak seemed to fill the air, making him swallow.

A moment later, Xiaomei came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of steaming, fragrant steak.

There was a smug smile on her face, as if she was showing off her masterpiece to Lu Feng.

The steak has an attractive color and is juicy, and you can tell at a glance that it is cooked with great care.

"Brother Lu, how about trying my cooking?"

Xiaomei placed the steak on the table in front of Lu Feng, her tone full of anticipation and confidence.

She stood aside, folded her hands in front of her, her eyes fixed on Lu Feng, as if waiting for his evaluation.

Lu Feng picked up the knife and fork, gently cut off a piece of steak and put it into his mouth.

At that moment, he seemed to be in a food paradise. The tenderness and juiciness of the steak and the richness and richness of the seasoning were all dancing on the tip of his tongue. He couldn't help but close his eyes and savor the deliciousness.

"Wow, Xiaomei, your craftsmanship is amazing!"

Lu Feng couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, his face filled with a smile of satisfaction and surprise.

This steak is not just a delicacy, but also Xiaomei's care and concern for him. It is the warmth and happiness he feels in this cold world.

"Xiao Mei... who did you learn this skill from? It's as good as that of a master chef. You... can definitely open a western restaurant?" Lu Feng praised.

"Um..."
