get married, dough maker

On the lawn, the Du family's dinner was still going on.

Du Xueming was called to his side by Mr. Du, and he didn't know what he was talking about.

Du Xueming turned sideways from time to time, looking into the distance.

Soon, people noticed his gaze.

Following his gaze, people saw Sun Shunan.

This little girl who didn't know where she came from was able to get the protection of Mr. Du, and even arranged for her to live in the old house of Du's family.

All this shows that she has "value".

For them, no matter who they are, the first criterion for measuring identity is "value".

Whether a person has value is the key to their friendship.

Take Du Xueming as an example, don't look at him as an illegitimate child, Mr. Du dotes on him and trusts him, this is his value.

No one in the family dared to underestimate him.

Similarly, this new girl received Du Xueming's attention and old man Du's protection.

Everyone in the family keenly felt that Sun Shunan was unusual.

The young people from the side branches of the family all smiled and approached Sun Shunan one after another, trying to get some useful news from her.

Du Xueming saw Sun Shunan who was being accosted, and saw that her expression was calm, so he looked away and continued talking to Mr. Du.

After a while, he looked over again.

It turns out that Sun Shunan was actually talking to Mei Li.

Du Xueming frowned indistinctly.

Every time Mei Li approached Sun Shunan, nothing good happened.

He hesitated to go over and interrupt their conversation.

"Xueming?" Old Man Du noticed that he was distracted, "Are you worried about that girl?"

Du Xueming shook his head.

Mr. Du narrowed his eyes, "It's safest for her to stay with me. You can just leave her here tonight."

"Not tonight." Du Xueming refused.

"why?"

"She... owes me money."

Mr. Du chuckled: "...how much she owes you, I will pay it back for her."

Du Xueming was a little embarrassed.

Owing money is just an excuse for him to keep her. He hopes to get in touch with her as much as possible so that she can remember what happened without getting hurt.

It was rare for Mr. Du to laugh out loud when his youngest son was deflated.

The people around didn't know what happened, but the old man smiled happily.

They all looked at Du Xueming enviously.

You know, it's really not easy to make the old man so happy.

Du Xueming turned his head to look at Sun Shunan again, but it was empty.

Sun Shunan is gone.

He looked around with his eyes, but he didn't find Sun Shunan's figure.

He went to look for Meili again, and found that Meili was also missing.

Du Xueming's eyes darkened.

Inside the old house.

Mei Li led Sun Shunan through the long corridor to the innermost room on the fourth floor.

"Miss Mei Li, here is the key." A young maid with a ponytail appeared and handed Mei Li a key, "Hurry up, don't let anyone find out."

Mei Li took the key and opened the door, while introducing: "This room used to be lived by Du Xueming, and he hasn't touched it since he moved out. No one can enter without authorization, and maids are not usually allowed to clean it... holding many of his secrets."

Mellie went in first.

Sun Shunan stood at the door of the room without moving.

"Come in." Mei Li urged.

Sun Shunan still didn't move, "This is not good."

"What's wrong?"

"We are prying into other people's privacy."

Mei Li looked at her like a fool, "Sun Shunan, are you stupid? How can we get in if we let him know?"

Sun Shunan shook her head, "Forget it, it's up to you to see, I'm not interested, so I'm going back." She turned around and left.

Mellie is in a hurry.

If Sun Shunan really left, what would happen to her plan?
In order to get Du Xueming, she had already risked everything. Without Sun Shunan, it was impossible for Du Xueming to take the bait.

"Wait a minute!" Meili winked at the maid standing outside the door.

The maid immediately stopped Sun Shunan.

"What do you want to do?" Sun Shunan realized that something was wrong, "Do you want to fight?"

She waved her small fist.

"Don't be impulsive, I really just want to show you Du Xueming's secret room." Mei Li had a smirk on her face, "If you don't want to go in, don't go in. It's okay to stand at the door and take a look, right?"

Sun Shunan: "What exactly do you want me to see?"

Mellie opened the door.

The wind was blowing in through the windows at the end of the corridor.

The hot summer wind stirred up Sun Shunan's skirt, and also stirred up a crisp crashing sound in the room.

Is it... a wind chime?
Du Xueming's room is full of glass wind chimes.

A string of hand-folded thousand paper cranes hangs on each thread with wind chimes hanging.

When the breeze blows, those paper cranes seem to be cruising on the sea, rippling with the waves.

"Ding ding ding..." The glass wind chimes collided with each other.

Sun Shunan stood there blankly, the paper cranes were reflected in his eyes, and there seemed to be something familiar in his mind that was about to emerge.

Mei Li kept talking beside her ear, "Du Xueming has always hidden a woman in his heart, and he folded these paper cranes for her... Even without me, you would not be able to win his heart."

In Meili's opinion, Sun Shunan was in a daze because he was hit.

She stepped back quietly, pushed Sun Shunan's back suddenly, and pushed her into the room.

Sun Shunan was defenseless, she was pushed to the ground.

"Bang!" The door closed, followed by the sound of a key turning.

Mei Li locked the door, and then handed the key to the maid, "Okay, go find Du Xueming now, and say that someone broke into his room, and then you can leave Du Xueming with the money I gave you." Home."

The maid left, and Meili took out the perfume bottle her mother gave her from her bag, held her breath, and sprayed it all over herself...

Du Xueming looked for Sun Shunan everywhere. He called Sun Shunan, but no one answered the ring.

Du Xueming couldn't help panicking.

"Master Xueming, it's not good." A maid ran over in a panic, "There is movement in your room, it seems that someone is inside."

Du Xueming stared at the maid with dark eyes, as if he wanted to suck her in.

The maid was sweating coldly from his back, "Young master, young master, why don't you go to the room and take a look? It will be troublesome if a thief enters."

"The thief who dares to steal the Du family's old house must have a background." Du Xueming's tone was calm, but in fact, his hostility was already evident.

The maid was terrified.

She thought that after tricking Du Xueming into the old house, she would be able to leave with Mei Li's money.

You must know that Mei Li gave her a lot of money, enough money to allow her to live a nourishing life without working.

She had a good idea, but she never expected that Du Xueming would see through her trick with just one glance.

"Master Xueming, what are you talking about, what kind of thief with background..."

Du Xueming ignored her, and directly called the housekeeper of the old house, pointing to the maid, "Show me this person, she can't go anywhere until I come back."

After speaking, he entered the old house alone...
