Queen of Group-Pampering: Mr. Ye Fights for Attention Every Day

Chapter 22: Imperial City, Emperor Garden

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

From Dou Manni’s description, Xia Jinmian thought that the Ye family was a middle-class family.

Unexpectedly, the luxury car drove straight into Imperial City, Emperor Garden—the most expensive real estate in the Capital!

There were a total of eight mansions in Emperor Garden. Not only were the swanky mansions worth a king’s ransom, but residency prerequisites required more than just wealth.

As Xia Jinmian looked out of the window, she took in the spectacular scenery in surprise. She was suspicious of the stature of this family.

Dou Manni thought Xia Jinmian was overwhelmed by all this. Afraid that Xia Jinmian would be scared off when she set foot into the house, Dou Manni took liberties with their stature again.

“Little Mian, don’t be fooled by the beautiful facade of this place; it’s barely passable. The place just opens up as you delve further in. It may seem to look spectacular, but it’s really nothing much when you get used to it.”

Xia Jinmian: “????”

She could not help but doubt Dou Manni’s words!

Passable?? Really nothing much??

Xia Jinmian had the memories of her previous life and knew the value of this place very well. She could not be fooled like a three-year-old.

This family… was really eerily low-key!

“Aunt, don’t worry. I won’t be shocked by this place.”

Dou Manni did not say anything else. She was certain that Xia Jinmian’s earlier trance was due to shock and hoped that she would not be scared off when they got inside.

The car slowly drove past a marble plaque with the distinct engraving of four large words in black—Imperial City, Emperor Garden.

Further in, the sides of the road were beautifully landscaped with picturesque hills and pond, as well as grand green jade stone sculptures.

The car slowly approached the main door and stopped. Two majestic purple bronze doors opened automatically.

Xia Jinmian was speechless. How could this be called passable? She was not blind!

“Sister, we are home! Get out of the car quickly. Bubba will bring you to see your princess room.”

Ye Moliang took Xia Jinmian’s hand in exuberance and dragged her through the purple bronze doors.

Xia Jinmian: “…”

There were about 10 people standing respectfully inside—men and women dressed in the uniform of servants and a middle-aged man in a suit.

Xia Jinmian guessed that the middle-aged man was the butler. She barely took a hurried glance at him before she was dragged away by the little munchkin.

“Sister, walk faster. Let’s go take a look at the princess room first. Bubba did it up personally!”

The butler—Xu Huamao—looked in the direction where Xia Jinmian ran in shock. Who was this lady who could make Fourth Young Master design a princess room for her personally?

“Old Xu, that lass is a guest.”

Seeing the butler’s confusion, Ye Yelin offered a brief explanation.

After all, Xia Jinmian was not their adopted daughter yet. Her status here was relegated to that of a guest.

Xia Jinmian followed the little munchkin through the wooden sculpted corridor, lawn path, and a few square pavilions as well as an arched doorway before entering the magnificent courtyard villa.

Everything here was very retro. There were wooden carvings and antiques everywhere in the villa. The owner’s love for antiques is apparent.

The little munchkin dragged Xia Jinmian up the mahogany spiral staircase to the third floor before she could venture a ride in the elevator.

“Sister… Eldest Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, and Bubba’s bedrooms are all on the third floor, so Bubba arranged for your princess room to be on the third floor too. Do you like it?”

The corners of Xia Jinmian’s mouth twitched. What could she say?

She could only say, “Of course I like it!”

“Bubba knew that you would like it!”

Ye Moliang was so happy that his obsidian eyes lit up. He pulled Xia Jinmian along and continued to run forward. When they passed by a bedroom with closed door, he reminded her.

“Sister, this is Eldest Brother’s bedroom. He doesn’t allow anyone to enter his room, not even Bubba. So, you mustn’t enter, okay?”

It would have been better if Ye Moliang had not said anything. Now that he had said that she was not allowed to enter, Xia Jinmian became even more curious. She took a few more glances at the door before retracting her gaze and smiled. “Don’t worry, I won’t go in.”

“I knew it—you’re a good girl!”

“…”
