Chapter 475 The Witch’s Castle

Chapter 475: Chapter 475 The Witch’s Castle

"Lizi, what does your dream home look like? Just... no mom and dad, no one else, just your own, a home just for you."

"Lizi, when I make money in the future, I want to buy a big house."

"... Snow-white walls, lush green lawns, and flowers in every color. From afar, it looks like a white castle built in the forest. Then I want to plant a row of climbing vines by the window. Climbing vines are so full of life, growing wildly, until the snow-white walls are covered in vines, both extravagant and eerie. Adults and children would be afraid to come in, thinking it’s... a witch’s castle! Yes, indeed, a witch!"

"Lizi, do you think people have past lives? If they do, I wish I were a witch in my past life, riding my broomstick, flying wherever I want, free and soaring with the wind."

"Lizi, do you think that day will come?"

I can’t remember when that conversation was.

Which year’s Christmas? Or

after watching Harry Potter together in the summer and returning to the apartment, spouting nonsense after drinking?

Can’t recall the exact time and place.

But she remembers clearly how she responded, Ye Li remembers distinctly.

She said: Yes, Chu Chu, it will definitely come true! We will work hard together, adding bricks to your castle!"

At that moment, eyes twinkling like stars as if already drunk, Qin Chu raised her glass: Cheers!

And at this moment, Qin Chu’s dream came true!

Snow-white villa.

Dark green climbing vines.

Lush green lawns.

Colorful blooming flowers.

Push open the big door, the pebble-paved path winds forward, straight leading to the villa’s steps.

For a moment, Ye Li felt she was not in a bustling and glamorous city but accidentally entered a forest, walked into a witch’s villa.

The villa was exquisitely decorated, from the sofa to the wine cabinet, every detail down to the chair in the dining room was in Qin Chu’s style.

The best was on the second floor, in the study with a beige theme, the huge bookcase against the wall held a broomstick.

Read the words engraved on the broomstick.

Ye Li: ...

[Tinderblast]

"Has Harry Potter’s broom become Qin Chuchu’s hidden treasure?"

Ye Li smiled at Lue Xizhou, who was leaning against the study door, "I’d say no one would believe it exists. Mr. Lue, you’re impressive!"

"Of course!"

Lue Xizhou looked smugly at Qin Chu, "Don’t just mention a broom; even if my baby wanted the moon in the sky, I’d find a way to get a ladder and climb up."

Saying this, Lue Xizhou glanced at his wristwatch, "Alright, you girls chat. I’ll come by to pick you up when it’s time for dinner!"

He waved goodbye as he swiftly left.

Considering it’s almost past six, and approaching dinner time, there’s no need for him to go away and rush back.

Before Ye Li could speak, Qin Chu grabbed her, "He just lives next door, just a few steps away."

???

Ye Li blinked, looking at Qin Chu incredulously, "You two are... trying something new?"

Just as she was about to speak, Ye Li suddenly understood.

Qin Chu’s desired home has always been hers alone, a so-called witch’s castle.

It’s truly what she wants deep down, a personal space that brings her happiness and safety.

Lue Xizhou not only understands her but gives her that.

"I finally get why you were so captivated, and so completely!"

Ye Li embraced Qin Chu, "Darling, I’m truly happy for you!"

Qin Chu’s heart settled back into place with a thud.

She hesitated to accept the 50-million car, which Lizi decided to take for her.

But the 200-million villa, she accepted without a second thought.

At that moment, it was an impulse due to overexcitement.

But in the aftermath, when she sobered up, Qin Chu thought about regretting, but it was already too late.

For the past few days, Qin Chu kept wondering if she made a mistake.

After all, taking what’s offered puts you at a disadvantage.

Not to mention, it’s 200 million.

She wanted to talk to Lizi but didn’t know how to start.

Yet at this moment, Ye Li smiled warmly as if she shared in her happiness.

Qin Chu immediately felt at ease.

This villa, was given to her by Lue Xizhou three days ago.

After coming and going so many times, she always stayed at Lue Xizhou’s villa.

Whenever they were together, they seemed to have endless things to talk about, all of which were a bit quirky.

Lue Xizhou said he envied the bald roadside vendor grilling crayfish, carefree and full of the everyday hustle and bustle.

Lue Xizhou said if the Lue Family went bankrupt, he’d find a bridge, wear sunglasses, and play the erhu. He’d even remain unkempt for a few days to add a bit of rough stubble. He might still earn some money.

Lue Xizhou also said that his biggest dream was to wake up on a small 1.2-meter bed, hugging one, with another on top of his head.

The one he hugs must be her.

The one on top could be a child, a cat or dog, or even a parrot.

Basically, a sense of crowdedness combined with pure happiness.

Lue Xizhou said so much, she couldn’t just listen.

So, her dreams about home were shared with Lue Xizhou over these months of to and fro.

Once said, it was said, and Qin Chu didn’t think much of it.

In her view, dreams are meant to be realized, and she is still young.

Someday, when she’s done with cars and running racetracks, then she can choose a place she likes.

If she can’t buy the right one, she’ll find someone to build it herself.

It will always come true.

But that evening, Lue Xizhou mysteriously said he wanted to take her somewhere.

Lue Xizhou had taken her to many places already, always looking extremely profound and secretive.

And indeed, it was quite mysterious.

Qin Chu never knew that the dignified Mr. Lue knew which alley in Si City had the best tofu pudding or which street had blind massage masters with great skills.

By day, Lue Xizhou was the Executive Vice President of the Lue Family, handsome and poised, embodying an image of elegance and high status.

But when night fell and Lue Xizhou stepped out of the company, he shed his suit, loosened his collar, rolled up his cuffs, and took her on a journey through the streets and alleys, like an 18-year-old radiant boy.

That dazzling smile, with pride in every corner of his eyes and brows, drove her home.

The car stopped in front of the villa, and before she could joke, Lue Xizhou took her hand, and they ran along the sunset glow to this villa.

"Welcome home, my witch!"

With eyes sparkling, even recollecting now, Qin Chu can still recall how dashing Lue Xizhou was as he pushed open the door three evenings ago.

"Lizi..."

The orange-red sunset spread from the distant sky, enveloping the whole world in a riot of colors.

In the dazzling scene, Qin Chu’s eyes and brows were lit with starry smiles.

Even the tips of her hair were glowing.

Qin Chu looked at Ye Li with starry eyes and said, "I have found the person I was looking for and the way home."
