His whole body was curled up into a ball under the blanket and was slightly trembling.

Did she dream of something?

Lei Zichen smiled as he squatted beside her and observed her without moving.

"Zichen …" Perhaps because he felt Lei Zichen's scorching gaze, Tao Tian lazily opened his eyes and looked towards Lei Zichen, who was staring at him in a daze, "I'm so sorry. I was unable to accompany you to complete the banquet."

"Idiot, aren't you drunk?" Lei Zichen said gently.

"Is the banquet over?" Tao Tian still had a confused look on his face.

"Yeah, I sent everyone away, leaving only your grandfather and my father to chat."

"What!" Tao Ziteng sat up. To her, her grandfather was someone who was in extreme danger. Tao Tianzhen was afraid that he would do something bad to Lei Zichen's father.

"It's just a conversation between elders, what's there to be nervous about?" Lei Zichen looked at the nervous Tao Tian with a puzzled expression.

"Oh, no... "Nothing." Realizing that he had once again lost his composure, Tao Tian hurriedly arranged his emotions. Ye Zichen looked at Lei Zichen with a smile, "Are you just curious, what are they talking about?"

"Don't worry, your grandfather loves you so much. He definitely wouldn't say bad things about you to my father." Lei Zichen scratched Tao Tian's nose and wrapped a blanket tightly around him. "I just woke up, be careful not to catch a cold."

The wind was a little chilly at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. However, after so many years, who would care if she caught a cold or if she needed a stable harbor.

"Yaoyao, let's go home." Lei Zichen held Tao Tian's hand and said softly, "I've finally married you. I can walk home together with you by hand." Lei Zichen purposely emphasized 'our own home'. This was once a promise between them. No matter how conflicted they were, they finally got what they wanted.

"En," Tao Tian nodded. "Let's go back to 'our own home'."

Lei Zichen took off his suit jacket and put it on Tao Tian. Then, he pulled him out of the lounge.

When the banquet hall was empty, most of the guests had already dispersed, leaving only Tao Weiguang and Lei Haotian chatting. To the side, Tao Ran was listening attentively without uttering a single word.

"Dad, grandpa, oh, and big brother." Lei Haotian pulled Tao Tian across the arena and greeted these people. You guys start with me … "He Yao, let's go home first. Yao Yao is a bit drunk today, so she wants to rest early."

"Alright, alright, go ahead." Lei Haotian smiled as he looked at his son and new wife, his eyes filled with joy.

"Alright, Zichen, don't bully our family." Tao Weiguang pretended to intimidate Lei Zichen.

Tao Weiguang's words caused a chill to run down Tao Tian's spine as he broke out in a cold sweat. She wished that she could quickly leave this place and leave the area that Tao Weiguang could monitor.

"Grandfather, I … "I'll be leaving first." Tao Tian lowered his head, not looking at Tao Weiguang's eyes.

As he spoke, he pulled Lei Zichen away from the banquet hall. Tao Weiguang didn't say anything else as he looked meaningfully at Tao Tian before turning his head to look at Tao Ran. His eyes were filled with a murderous light.

Tao Tian felt as if his spine was about to shatter under this gaze.

Without a word, he quickly left.

Regardless, today, she was his purest bride. What she wanted to give him was her purest self.

"Yao Yao, we're home." Lei Zichen slowly parked his mirage in the parking lot of his home and excitedly brought Tao Tian into the house.

In fact, Lei Haotian had already bought a small two-story house for the two of them. However, Lei Zichen insisted on living with his father because he was afraid that his father would be lonely, and since Tao Tian didn't object, the house was temporarily empty.

"Yao Yao, I'm going to give you a surprise." Lei Zichen mysteriously told Tao Yao.

"What surprise?" Tao Tian had a face full of anticipation. Lei Zichen always brought her unexpected happiness.

"You'll know soon enough." Lei Zichen had a mysterious look on his face, but he still refused to speak the truth.

"Yao Yao, this is our family's living room. Lei Zichen pushed the door open and introduced the two of them, one by one, to this day. Tao Tian has never visited before, and she always felt that her identity was extremely awkward.

The Lei Family and the Tao Family's style was completely different, and they were dazzling in gold and jade.

In the center of the room was a golden, marble tea table. More importantly, on the wall in the center was a large portrait of a woman with delicate features. Her face bore some resemblance to Lei Zichen's.

"Zichen, this is …?" Tao Tian pointed at the portrait and asked.

"This is my mother …" Lei Zichen was lost in thought as he stared at the portrait.

"Quick, come and let my mother see you, the daughter-in-law who just entered the house." Lei Zichen pulled Tao Tian over to the portrait. "Mom, this is your daughter-in-law. Can you see her?" Lei Zichen looked at the portrait and said excitedly, as if the person in the painting would answer her.

"Yao Yao, hurry up and greet Granny." Lei Zichen pulled on Tao Tian's hand.

"Mmm, mama …" "Mom …" He didn't feel strange speaking to the person in the painting. On the contrary, the old granny in the painting gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity. It was as if she could smell the fragrance of orchids emanating from her body.

"Hehe, Yao Yao, it will be hard for you to speak to a painting." Lei Zichen scratched his head in embarrassment.

"How could that be? She's your mother, and that's my mother." Tao Tian waited for his large eyes to explain, "It's just that I've never had a mother since I was young. I rarely make the sound scale of 'mother', so it's a little strange."

"Actually, my mother was no longer by my side when I was very young, so my impression of her was only this painting." Lei Zichen's gaze turned deep as he immersed himself in reminiscing about his mother.

"Dad told me that if there's anything to tell this painting, it's Mom. She'll pass on your thoughts to your mom, wherever he is. So, all these years, no matter how happy or sad I am, I will always share it with mom. "

Lei Zichen's expression moved Tao Tian a little. She shook off Lei Zichen's hand and took a step towards the portrait, getting closer and closer to it.

"Mom," Tao Tian bowed towards the portrait, "I don't know why, but I always feel that you're very familiar with it. I think it's because of Zi Chen. Mom, I'm guessing that you must like the orchids very much. After Tao Tian finished speaking, he took a step back and bowed towards the portrait.

He then returned to Lei Zichen's side.

Lei Zichen smiled as he held Tao Yao in his arms. "My wife, how do you know that mother likes orchids?" Lei Zichen asked curiously.

"I don't know either. I just feel that standing next to your mother's portrait, I can even ask her about the fragrance of the orchids." Tao Tian obediently stayed in Lei Zichen's arms.

"Hehe, little ghost girl, take me to our room to have a look." Lei Zichen said as he led Tao Tian to the second floor.

"This is Dad's study, this is Dad's bedroom, this is the restricted area, the room my mom used to stay in before she disappeared." Lei Zichen pulled Tao Tian to one of the rooms, and excitedly introduced him.

As he spoke of this mysterious room, Tao Tian couldn't help but stick out his head in curiosity. He could only feel a familiar scent, similar to the fragrance of orchids, blowing over him.

"Alright, curious baby, I'll show you what it looks like when I get the chance in the future," Lei Zichen said as he dragged Tao Tian over to another room across the hallway.

The layout of the Lei family mansion was a dot shaped design, which was very different from Tao family's rules and regulations.

"Yao Yao, don't be muddle-headed and walk the wrong path." Lei Zichen teased, clearly ridiculing the scene when they met for the first time.

"Haha, I won't. I won't be stupid every time." Tao Tian hurriedly tried to prove himself.

"Alright, the room on this side of the corridor is ours." This is our bedroom, our study, our own kitchenette and dining room.

This side of the walkway was like a separate house. It could be seen that Lei Zichen had truly put in a lot of effort. He wanted to be by his father's side, and he also wanted to have a day of independence with his new wife.

"I have already redecorated everything according to your preferences," Lei Zichen slowly explained, acting like a tour guide. "Dad said that the young couple needs their own space, so he gave us the room across the corridor. This way we can get further away from his room, neither of us will disturb the other." Lei Zichen smiled evilly and spread his hands.

Tao Tian also smiled. He followed Lei Zichen to the door of his own room.

"Then, before opening the door, you have to be mentally prepared." Lei Zichen said with a smile as he caught Tao Tian's jade hand on the doorknob.

"What, exactly?" Tao Yaoyang became more and more curious as he impatiently opened the door.

"Wow, Zichen …" Who knew how many surprises this was. Right now, the layout and style of the room were exactly the same as her small house in the pottery house. There were pink carpets, mats on the ground, pale pink walls, and even those "hulks".

Kitty's small display, are all Tao Tian's heart's love.

"How is it, a surprise?" Lei Zichen had a complacent look on his face.

Tao Tian nodded with all his might as he continuously looked around. All of his previous weariness was swept away.

What replaced it was a deep shock.

"Give me a kiss, I have an even bigger surprise." Lei Zichen's smile was devilishly charming. He leaned his face close to Tao Tian, pouted his lips, closed his eyes, and waited for Tao Tian to automatically send him a kiss.

"You're not lying to me, are you?" Tao Tian had a face full of incredulity. What kind of surprise could be unthinkable for her?

"Hurry up and kiss him. If you don't, you will regret it." Lei Zichen anxiously said.

"Really …?" Tao Tian still didn't believe it.

"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you …" Lei Zichen stomped his feet in anxiousness.

"Then... "Alright …" Tao Tian stood on his tiptoes and quickly pecked Lei Zichen's lips.

"Finished?" Lei Zichen asked hesitantly.

"It's over. What else do you want?" Surprised, Tao Tian asked, "Don't be so insatiable."

"What? He was in the lounge just now, and he's still so wild …" Lei Zichen complained in a low voice with dissatisfaction.

"Okay, okay. Although the acceptance test doesn't pass, I promised to give you a surprise, so I won't go back on my promise. The surprise will arrive soon." Lei Zichen said as he raised his hands and clapped twice.

"Duk Duk Duk …" Following the applause, a knock on the door was heard.

"Who is it?" Tao Tian turned his head to look at the door in surprise.
