Not to mention paying rent, even if he didn't pay rent…
On account of the fact that Yan Su had fed the original Lin Luo for three years, Lin Luo had no choice but to agree.
Wasn't it just a buy-one-get-free situation? It was just one more person.
Not to mention that Lin Luo had designs on Yan Su.
At the thought of this, Lin Luo smiled. "Sure, but my house is a little rudimentary, so you have to be mentally prepared."
"It's fine as long as people can sleep there," Yang Zheng said.
In the past, when he led troops to war, Yang Zheng had been stationed in the wilderness many times.
His only requirement for accommodation was that he could sleep more comfortably.
Lin Luo smirked.
Yan Su dug out a box of books and two sets of clothes before bringing Yang Zheng back to the courtyard with Lin Luo.
There were a total of three rooms in the house. One was where Lin Luo lived, and the other was where the Lin family's parents lived. Lin Luo didn't intend to let anyone stay in the Lin family's parents' room. She led the two of them to the empty room and said, "The two of you can sleep in the same room."
When Yan Su saw the door, he froze.
Wasn't this the room with the mechanism?
"Yan Su, what are you waiting for?" Yang Zheng noticed Yan Su's hesitation and asked curiously. He didn't wait for Yan Su to reply. In the past few years since this kid left the capital, he had changed from an easygoing person to a quiet person. If you spoke to him, he would ignore you eight out of ten times.
Yang Zheng pushed open the door and walked in.
It was spacious inside, but there was nothing except a bed frame.
There wasn't even a stool to sit on.
At this moment, Yang Zheng understood that Lin Luo wasn't being polite just now. Her home was really shabby.
Yan Su didn't see any mechanisms, so he glanced at the door frame. In just a single day, Lin Luo had cleaned up those mechanisms.
Lin Luo carried a straw mat and two thin blankets over.
"I don't have any more pillows, so you guys can just fold your clothes and make do."
After Yang Zheng took the mat, he spread it out. It was just right, and the bed wasn't small, so it wouldn't be crowded for him and Yan Su to squeeze together on it.
When Yan Su took the blanket, he smelled a subtle fragrance.
It was different from the fragrance of lavender and marigolds.
Today's fragrance was sometimes strong, sometimes faint, sometimes complicated, sometimes lingering, and sometimes a little chilling.
The fragrance disappeared in an instant. Yan Su wanted to investigate further, but he could no longer smell it.
"You don't like this blanket?" Seeing that he wasn't moving, Lin Luo sighed slightly and said, "This is all I have today. I'll change it for you tomorrow."
If someone else stayed over…
Lin Luo naturally wouldn't put in so much effort. If they couldn't sleep here, so be it.
However, Yan Su was a benefactor and a hunk, so Lin Luo was more tolerant.
Yan Su shook her head. "No need. This is already enough."
"There's a fragrance on the blanket. What did you wash it with?" Yan Su hesitated for a moment before asking.
Lin Luo looked at Yan Su meaningfully as she said, "It's not the fragrance on the blanket. It's from my hand."
Yan Su was quite observant.
She liked to use incense and perfume, but not for other people's sake. She liked to smell it on herself. These past few days, whenever Lin Luo used incense, Yan Su noticed it.
However, this time, Lin Luo didn't raise her hand for Yan Su to smell.
Lin Luo didn't like to use the same trick a second time.
"This time's incense is different from the previous two." Yan Su said directly, "It smells better than the previous two."
Lin Luo smiled calmly.
She took care of herself well, so her skin had become much fairer these past few days. If not for the wavy birthmark on her face, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she looked beautiful now.
If the people in Little Bay Village saw this, they would definitely say that Lin Luo had changed drastically.
However, Lin Luo and Yan Su lived in a remote place and rarely encountered the people of Little Bay Village. The Qiao family members they encountered didn't even pay any attention to her, so no one could tell that Lin Luo had changed.
"I used 'Romantic' today." Lin Luo went out for a while and brought back an incense sachet for Yan Su.
This gift was for her kindred spirits.
The fragrance on the sachet was stronger and mellower than the fragrance on the blanket.
The fragrance that wafted into the tip of Yan Su's nose made him feel a little dizzy.
He tightened his grip on the sachet and removed the sachet hanging from his belt. "I mixed this myself."
"I'll give it to you as a return gift."
Lin Luo accepted it.
After interacting with him for these few days, she more or less understood Yan Su's personality now. He reciprocated with courtesy and had the demeanor of a gentleman. Although he always had a poker face, he wouldn't take advantage of others. He always returned favors.
In pleasant terms, he was a polite gentleman.
To put it bluntly, he was uncaring and apathetic. Only cold-hearted people were unwilling to have any entanglements with others.
However, she was such a person as well.
After Lin Luo returned to her room, she sniffed the sachet. The fragrance was refreshing and long-lasting, similar to that of Romantic. However, the fragrance of the sachet didn't have many layers. It was clean and refreshing.
It suited Yan Su very well.
Lin Luo gripped the sachet tightly.
At night, Yang Zheng went to bed early. After all, he was injured.
Lin Luo and Yan Su were warming themselves around the charcoal basin in the living room.
"What do you plan to do with that house?" Lin Luo was covered in a thin blanket and her two clean feet were placed beside the charcoal basin.
From her previous life to this life, Lin Luo had never felt like a mammal.
Be it spring, summer, autumn, or winter, her body was always extremely cold.
Especially in winter, her feet were always as cold as ice.
Yan Su said, "I have a few friends who can help me rebuild the house."
He continued, "I plan to buy some new items. If you need anything, tell me."
Lin Luo looked around.
Other than the charcoal basin, there were only two chairs in the entire living room.
It was indeed time to add some things.
Lin Luo nodded. "Then help me buy some things. Just buy two of everything."
"There are some things you might not need. I'll check around." When Yan Su didn't get a response after he finished speaking, he looked down and realized that Lin Luo had fallen asleep in her chair.
The girl looked cute in her sleep, so Yan Su took another look.
Then, he muttered under his breath, "Sorry," before sending Lin Luo back to her courtyard.
For a moment, Yan Su's nose was filled with the fragrance of 'Romantic'.
It smelled subtle and captivating.
The next day, Lin Luo was about to go out to fetch water when she saw Qiao Sheng bring the Qiao family over, along with many things.
Seeing this, Lin Luo remembered.
The Qiao family was here to return the things.
Coincidentally, Yan Su also came out. He naturally saw the things the Qiao family had brought back. There were cabinets, tables, and all kinds of random things.
"We've sent you everything you asked for." Qiao Sheng smiled at Lin Luo obsequiously.
