Lu Xize waited for Chu Yao to finish touring the living room, dining room, and small storage closet downstairs before taking her hand and leading her upstairs.
On the second floor, the first room they saw was the study.
The room was very large and clearly intended for Lu Xize, but there was a slightly incongruous element inside.
In the cool-toned study, placed diagonally from the heavy desk near the floor-to-ceiling window, was a white rattan hanging basket chair.
A round, gray, plush rug was laid out underneath, making the space look both grand and cozy.
That little area was obviously prepared for her.
Although it might have been just a casual design choice, Chu Yao suddenly felt as though Lu Xize had saved a spot for her in his own territory.
Even though this feeling was very likely a misconception, her heart still softened.
