Chapter 815: This Actually Makes Sense

~4 min read 744 words

After smoothly walking out of the kitchen, Xu Youyu returned to her bedroom, winked at Li Luo who was still there, and gave him an OK gesture.

"What do you mean?" Li Luo stood at the doorway, peeked outside, then immediately closed the bedroom door and asked, "That's it? What did you say to her?"

"I didn't say anything special," Xu Youyu chuckled, "I just told Aunt Yuan I was planning to buy a villa, and asked her to take me along next time she goes to look at one."

"About that..." Li Luo nodded slowly, but soon asked in confusion, "What does this have to do with what I just told you?"

"You're really dumb." Xu Youyu rolled her eyes at him, "Think carefully. Uncle Ying and Aunt Yuan aren't usually around here, so they have no idea how close our relationship actually is."

"From their perspective, I'm just a roommate friend who happens to be especially close to the three of you."

"So I just need to dispel a little bit of doubt in their minds."

Li Luo stroked his chin and thought it over, gradually catching on: "So what you mean is..."

Xu Youyu snapped her fingers, hummed twice, and said, "Let Uncle Ying and Aunt Yuan know that I'm planning to buy a villa, and they'll get the wrong idea that moving into the villa with you guys is just a temporary stay."

"After all, if I had really been 'collected' by you, with a super-rich husband like you, why would I bother spending my own money to buy a villa?"

"So in their eyes, as long as I'm buying a villa myself, it must mean I'm planning to move out."

"Thinking about it that way, they'll definitely believe I don't have any particularly close relationship with someone."

"Right?" Xu Youyu now leaned close to Li Luo, tilted his chin up, and whispered teasingly in his ear, "Hubby~"

"I'm impressed you actually came up with that." Li Luo, flushed with heat from her teasing, pressed her against the wall, leaned down for a kiss, then continued asking, "Then why don't you just tell Aunt Yuan directly that you'll be moving out in the future?"

"That would be lying." Xu Youyu huffed, "And if I brought it up myself, wouldn't that be a bit like 'hiding silver where there's no silver'?"

"Some things still need to be figured out and guessed by people themselves before they'll believe it's true."

"Many people trust their own logic and judgment more than answers that others volunteer to them."

Li Luo nodded slowly after hearing this: "Your reasoning is pretty solid."

"Of course." Xu Youyu grinned, "Someone rushed in here asking for help, so I probably didn't disappoint you, did I?"

"How should I repay you?" Li Luo carried her to the bedside, sat down, wrapped his arm around her slim waist, and asked softly, "I locked the door just now, so should we..."

"Let go of me!" Xu Youyu quickly broke free from him and glared at him in annoyance, "Uncle Ying and Aunt Yuan are both outside! You still want to mess around? And I haven't even packed my luggage yet, hurry up and help me."

"Fine." Li Luo spread his hands helplessly, had to put away his little thoughts, calmed down, then got up and started helping Xu Youyu pack.

Xu Youyu didn't have that much stuff, just a little more than Yan Zhusheng.

Starting with the wardrobe, aside from regular clothes, there were plenty of playful little items.

Things like JK outfits, secretary costumes, bunny ears were all considered the most basic stuff.

As for the other items, even though there were no outsiders here, Xu Youyu still felt a bit embarrassed, so she quickly stuffed them all into her suitcase.

"Why so many?" Li Luo watching from the side was also a bit shocked, "I don't feel like we've used that many?"

"Like we haven't?" Xu Youyu glared at him, "It's just that there are still some we haven't used yet."

"Then you bought way too many..."

"Didn't it all end up benefiting you in the end? And now you're complaining?"

"Ahem... I'm not complaining." Li Luo chuckled, hugged Xu Youyu from behind, "Buy more, we'll try them next time."

"Hmph~"

With Li Luo's help, Xu Youyu quickly emptied all the clothes from the wardrobe, put the unwanted extras into plastic bags to be taken downstairs and dealt with later.
