"Where are we going?"
As soon as Eric turned the corner, Lily asked. Because this direction was neither the direction to the
Qiao family's old house, nor the direction to the manor, nor the direction to the Gu family.
"You will know when we get there." He didn't say.
"Can't you just tell me now?"
"No, I can't." He retorted, "If I tell you, there won't be any surprise."
Lily raised her eyebrows and thought, surprise? Well, he was going to give her a surprise, so she would
not ask him for now. Anyway, she would know later.
Looking at the night view outside the window, Lily was in a good mood. She was more and more
excited about the surprise that Eric told her. To be honest, being with him for so long, it seemed to be
the first time that he had said that he would give her a surprise.
About ten minutes later, the car drove into a high-end neighborhood.
"Here we are." After parking the car, Eric turned to look at Lily and asked.
"Where am I?" Lily asked, looking around.
"Don't worry. I won't sell you." With a smile on his lips, Eric leaned over and unfastened her seat belt.
"Get off the car. I'll take you upstairs."
With some doubts and expectations, Lily opened the door and got out of the car.
Eric, who had gotten off the car earlier than her, walked to her side and naturally held her hand. They
walked towards a building nearby.
Since it was at night, although there were street lights outside the community and the night scene was
good, she could not see what the community was like. This community was completely strange to Lily.
As soon as they entered the corridor and entered the elevator, Eric pressed the number 7. Then he put
his arm around Lily's waist and took her into his arms, with his chin on her shoulder. "I remember your
lucky number is 7."
Lily raised her eyebrows and asked, "How do you know?"
She remembered that she had never mentioned a lucky number to him, and she didn't believe it either.
She only preferred the real number, seven.
Eric said while rubbing his head against her shoulder, "Each of your books has a special number with
seven pages."
He found it by accident, even in the book she gave him when he was in hospital last time, she drew
some shallow lines on each page with seven pages, looking adorable.
A sense of shyness flashed across Lily's face. She remembered that she always liked a 7-type.
Sometimes, when she felt bored, she would try to draw on the seven pages.
Seeing that she was so easily shy, the hand holding her waist tightened, and the lips were closer to her
neck. When he spoke, his breath directly jumped onto her neck. "My luck number is 3."
Lily subconsciously winced her neck. Suddenly, a thought came to her. She liked 7, so he pressed the
number 7 as soon as he entered the elevator. Now, the number he said was 3, then…
Jingle.
The elevator stopped on the seventh floor, interrupting her thought.
After letting go of the woman in his arms, Eric held Lily's hand and walked out of the elevator.
After getting out of the elevator, he stopped and looked at Lily. "Girl, what I have just said is very clear.
Do you know which house we are going to enter?"
Turning her head to meet his gaze, Lily took a deep breath, and her heart was filled with an
inexplicable throb, looking at Eric's eyes full of water, which was particularly moving.
Now she had got the answer from what she had thought. Holding his hand, she stopped in front of No.3
door confidently. Turning around, she smiled at him and said, "Open the door."
"Okay." His voice was full of love.
His girl was really smart.
After opening the door and entering the room, Eric turned on the light, and the whole hall was lit up in
an instant.
The room was empty without any furniture. It was even not a cement floor, and the walls were just
made concrete walls. There was no decoration in it. It was totally a roughcast house.
"Are you a little disappointed, huh?" Eric embraced her from behind.
Lily shook her head. Her throat was a little dry, and her eyes were sore. Although the room was still a
room, she was very moved and dynamic.
"I planned to finish the decoration and then bring you here, but I don't know what kind of style you like,
so I have to bring you here in advance." Eric continued, "Let's see what kind of style you like and then
we will redecorate it. It will take at least one or two months to finish the decoration. That is to say, if we
want to move in, we have to wait until the end of the year."
"Eric," Lily choked with sobs. She turned around and looked at Eric with red eyes. "Thank you, thank
you for this surprise for me today, and thank you for giving me a home."
"Silly girl." Eric reached out his hand and touched her face, saying, "Don't say that. We should have our
own home. We always live with our elders and don't have any private space."
Hearing the word "own", Lily felt very warm in her heart. She threw herself into Eric's arms, with her
hands around Eric's waist and her face against his chest. "Well, this is our nest from now on."
"Haha." Eric burst into laughter. He hugged her back and said, "I just did this for you. Are you moved?"
Hearing his words, Lily looked up at him and said, "I've been very tired. When I lived with Dillon in the
past, I had been very cautious all the day. Claire liked to say my bad words in front of him. At last, I was
punished. Lucia liked to gossip with him, but I was the one who suffered a lot. Only Eden hasn't done
that. Many things happened later. Grandpa couldn't stand it anymore and asked me to go back to live
with him in the old house, so I got rid of the scheme of the whole family, but I haven't got rid of them
completely yet."
"Lucia still come to the old house to" take care "from time to time. I couldn't get rid of them. Only when I
went to live in the manor with my mother and uncle Kerr would I feel at ease. There was no scheming
among people there. It was just a warm home, so I like Uncle Kerr very much. But after all, that place is
not my home at all. I also want to live an easy life with no trouble. There was nothing but warmth in the
room after all the tricks."
"You will, girl." Eric held her more tightly in his arms. What she said just now was in the same situation
with him. The only thing that was better was that his parents loved her.
"We will move in as soon as the decoration is finished. I believe my parents, aunt and uncle Kerr will
not object to it."
"Yes." Lily nodded.
"Well, don't think too much." Eric slightly patted her face, then lowered his head and kissed her lips.
After that, he separated and said, "Let's go to the bedroom first."
"Yes." Lily shyly nodded and followed him into the bedroom.
"The master bedroom is large with a small balcony connected outside." After walking into the bedroom,
Eric said, "I plan to add a floor to ceiling window to the small balcony, and then a lady chair on the small
balcony. At night, we can lie on the chair and look at the stars. What do you think?"
"Yes, I like it." Lily nodded in agreement with a smile on her face. She had already come up with the
idea of that scene. With the stars shining at night, the couple leaned against a throne and looked up at
the stars. How romantic it was!
"I knew you would like it." "Besides this, what kind of style do you want to set up inside the bedroom?"
he continued.
"What kind of style do you like?" She asked.
"I will love whatever you like."
Hearing that, Lily smiled happily. She held Eric's face, got close to him and kissed him actively. Then
she was about to leave. However, Eric would never allow her to leave so easily. He pulled her against
the wall of the bedroom.
"You lit up and want to escape, huh?" His voice was a little bit low and husky, which sounded very
attractive.
Hearing that, Lily's face flushed. "I'm not running away. We're still young. Eric, Hmm..."
Before she finished her words, she was stopped by his lips. The kiss was extremely gentle, from the
bottom to the bottom, and every step was dominated by Eric.
One minute, two minutes, five minutes
Until his hands started to move about restlessly, Lily stopped him. "Eric… You are just going too far."
She could clearly feel the change of his breath and body temperature. He was too young to be
impulsive.
"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing." With his forehead against hers, Eric gasped slightly.
"Yes." Lily just responded in a low voice. To be honest, she was not afraid that they would really do the
last thing. It was just that, their age was so sensitive that they were not in the mood to make love.
He pecked her nose gently and pulled away from her. After adjusting his state, he went back to the
previous topic, "What kind of style do you want to put the house into?"
"Pastoral style, I like this style." She replied, and then asked, "What do you think?"
"Well, let's choose the pastoral style." Eric replied.
Lily smiled. "In fact, I like the manor that uncle Kerr built especially for mom. Although it's not alongside
the mountains or rivers, it's quiet and peaceful."
"I like it, too. I'll make you a better one when I'm strong enough."
"Okay." Lily nodded with a smile, her eyes full of affection.
"Let's go. I'll drive you home. Grandpa will be worried if we don't go back." With that, he held Lily's hand
and walked towards the door.
"Okay."
"I may be very busy in the following period of time, and there will be fewer and fewer chances for us to
meet each other. I can only call you."
"Yes." She said yes and looked up at the side face of Eric. Her eyes were full of smile. How lucky she
was to meet him!
