Chapter 320 Replacement
Chapter 320 Replacement
After Nan Sheng got in the car, the driver closed the door and the car drove steadily towards the Zhou family's villa in Haicheng.
When Nan Sheng arrived, she was amazed.
The most famous and mysterious villa in Haicheng occupies a huge area and is located halfway up the mountain. It is an extremely complete Chinese-style building.
But it is not in disrepair for many years, but is maintained and cared for by someone.
Only no one knew whose house this was.
It was once said to be the residence of a prince from the Ming and Qing dynasties, but the legends became more and more outrageous.
But no one ever comes here.
Later, a popular internet blogger checked in and took photos of the wall, and it became a popular check-in spot. It is now a major tourist attraction in Haicheng.
As it turned out, this was the Zhou family's residence.
The car stopped at the door for a moment, then the door slowly opened and the car drove into the courtyard.
Nan Sheng was truly dumbfounded when she saw the standard Chinese-style pavilions and towers here.
The driver noticed Nan Sheng's surprise and explained, "The old lady particularly likes these Chinese-style buildings. This house was built by the Zhou family a long time ago, but the old lady rarely comes here, especially after she fell ill in recent years. However, there is a fixed team to maintain it every year, and the housekeeper here has always been managing it. Everyone is sensible and knows what to say and what not to say, so no one knows this is the Zhou family house."
Nan Sheng nodded in understanding.
"If you like, we'll have the butler take you around later." The driver continued, "The access control Mr. Zhou gave you earlier allows you to come and go freely."
The implication is that Nan Sheng can come at any time.
It is indeed a great honor.
"Okay." Nan Sheng responded.
Soon, the car stopped and the housekeeper was already waiting for Nan Sheng.
"Miss Nan, please follow me." The butler was also very polite to Nan Sheng.
Nan Sheng followed the butler neither humbly nor arrogantly. The butler took Nan Sheng around the pavilions and towers and walked towards the house.
On the way, the housekeeper and Nan Sheng talked about some of the Zhou family's rules.
For the first time, Nan Sheng felt what a large and prestigious family compound meant.
Compared with the Zhou family, the Lu family is not on the same level. No wonder Lu Shiyan tried every means to get close to the Zhou family.
Nan Sheng thought, if it were her, she would probably do the same.
"You can tell me if you have any needs. The old lady is in the small garden in the side hall." The housekeeper took Nan Sheng to the small garden in the side hall with a smile on his face.
Even the small garden was so beautiful that Nan Sheng couldn't take her eyes off it.
The flowers inside are all rare varieties from all over the world. Jiang Qingqiu takes care of these flowers in the small garden, and it can be seen that he likes them very much.
Nan Sheng walked quietly into the small garden, and Jiang Qingqiu sensed it almost instantly.
She looked at Nan Sheng with a smile on her face, and she really looked much better.
"Zhenzhen, you're here." Jiang Qingqiu took the initiative to walk towards Nan Sheng and held her hand. "Come, accompany Mom to look at these flowers. Are there any you like?"
Nan Sheng was a little overwhelmed by Jiang Qingqiu's enthusiasm.
But she did not forget Zhou Jingyan's instructions. Here, the role played by Nan Sheng is Zhou Zhenzhen.
So Nan Sheng calmed down and changed the subject calmly: "Mommy, I like roses. The roses here are really beautiful, and there are also these extremely difficult varieties to grow."
Nan Sheng was chatting with Zhou Zhenzhen in a low voice, talking about roses.
Nan Sheng likes flowers because in her previous life, Lu Shiyan treated her like a pampered canary and hid her away.
Lu Shiyan would not come to see Nan Sheng anytime and anywhere. Most of the time, these beautiful flowers were the ones that accompanied Nan Sheng.
After a long time, Nan Sheng really fell in love with him.
Probably because he was afraid that Nan Sheng would be bored, Lu Shiyan found teachers for Nan Sheng, all of whom were top botanical experts, to teach Nan Sheng how to grow flowers.
Later, Nan Sheng's small garden had countless rare species from all over the world.
So now that Jiang Qingqiu wanted to talk to Nan Sheng about flowers, Nan Sheng naturally followed up on the topic.
An old man and a young boy just sat in the small garden.
The housekeeper brought some snacks, and Nan Sheng made Jiang Qingqiu very happy.
Jiang Qingqiu looked at Nan Sheng with joy in his eyes.
Nan Sheng also knew that Jiang Qingqiu really thought he was Zhou Zhenzhen.
She thought it was cruel, but she couldn't expose it.
At dinner time, Jiang Qingqiu took Nan Sheng to the restaurant.
Nan Sheng then noticed that there were three people's bowls and chopsticks on the table. She instinctively thought that Zhou Jingyan had come back to eat.
Nan Sheng was surprised by what the housekeeper said.
"Madam, the master is back." The butler said respectfully.
Jiang Qingqiu nodded, without much change in his emotions, at least not as enthusiastic as when he faced Nan Sheng.
Nan Sheng didn't say anything, but guessed that this gentleman was not Zhou Jingyan, but Zhou Zhiming.
He is Jiang Qingqiu's husband and the adopted son of the Zhou family.
It was also because of marrying Jiang Qingqiu that she truly entered the core circle of the Zhou family.
Jiang Zhilu and Nan Sheng had talked about the Zhou family before, but Zhou Zhiming had never taken the initiative in the Zhou family.
Before, the initiative of the Zhou family had always been in the hands of Old Master Zhou.
Everyone thought that after the old man passed away, the initiative would be given to Zhou Zhiming.
After all, no matter what, Zhou Zhiming is the adopted son of the Zhou family and was brought up by the old man.
The result was unexpected. After the old man passed away, the initiative was given to Zhou Jingyan.
Obviously, Zhou Jingyan had just become an adult that year.
Gossips were all saying that Zhou Zhiming would never have the chance to enter the core circle of the Zhou family in his lifetime, even if he married Jiang Qingqiu.
The people in power in the Zhou family will only be members of the Zhou family.
But even so, it did not affect the relationship between Zhou Zhiming and Jiang Qingqiu, and they were deeply in love.
Later, when the Zhou family encountered trouble, Zhou Zhiming also stayed with Jiang Qingqiu without any regrets.
Nan Sheng felt that this was probably the best performance of a good man.
"Mr. Zhou." Nan Sheng saw Zhou Zhiming, stood up and called him politely.
Jiang Qingqiu interrupted Nan Sheng with a smile: "Zhenzhen, why do you call me daddy instead of sir?"
Nan Sheng stuck out her tongue; she had truly forgotten.
It was because of the way Zhou Zhiming looked at Nan Sheng that made Nan Sheng feel something was wrong. It was an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
That's why it just came out of my mouth.
"I'm not used to it yet." Nan Sheng took the initiative to explain.
Then Nan Sheng looked at Zhou Zhiming and changed her tone: "Dad."
Zhou Zhiming felt a little awkward and embarrassed. He obviously knew why Nan Sheng was at the Zhou family's house. He smiled at Nan Sheng and said, "Relax, Nan Sheng."
"Okay." Nan Sheng nodded.
"I'm glad you're back. Your mother will be in a good mood now that you're back. She has really put a lot of effort into finding you over the years." Zhou Zhiming chatted with Nan Sheng very naturally.
Nan Sheng felt that everything Zhou Zhiming said to her was meant for Jiang Qingqiu to hear.
Nan Sheng chose to answer safe questions to ensure that she would not make any mistakes.
The meal was quite enjoyable.
But Nan Sheng seemed particularly depressed.
