Predestined Marriage
Chapter 175: You Are Better than Them

Old house?

Summer turned around to look at Leonardo and found that his expression had become extremely gloomy.

Summer discovered that anything related to the Emersons made Leonardo unhappy.

He seemed to dislike the Emersons in particular.

She reached out and held Leonardo's hand. Almost immediately, Leonardo held her hand, too.

Immediately after, Leonardo said indifferently, "I see."

Summer could tell that Leonardo did not want to return to the Emersons' old house.

She did not know much about the Emersons. She only knew that the Emersons was a large clan. She had heard from Douglas before that the Emersons had a large population and he had many cousins. But only Douglas and his brother had a good relationship with Leonardo.

Leonardo's identity was revealed now. It was normal for the Emersons to let Leonardo go back after such a big incident.

When they returned to their rooms, Summer asked him, "Do you want to go back tomorrow?"

Leonardo raised his head and saw the cautious expression on Summer's face. He curled his lips and his smile was not very obvious, but his entire body was clearly softened.

He held Summer in his embrace and said with a rare hint of teasing, "Of course I have to go back. I have to show him his granddaughter-in-law."

Summer raised her head to look at him, "Who is he?"

Leonardo smiled at her, "My grandfather."

The rulers of the Emersons were all legendary figures, not to mention Charlie, who had maintained the prosperity of the clan for decades.

Summer was a little nervous.

The next day.

Summer got up early to pick out clothes in the cloakroom.

This color was too plain, and that style was not dignified enough...

Summer was a little discouraged for she didn't know what to wear.

Suddenly, she noticed a slight movement behind her. She suddenly turned her head and saw that Leonardo was here. He was leaning against the wall and looking at her with a smile in his eyes. Such a smiling gaze was simply fascinating to Summer!

She noticed that Leonardo loved to smile these days, and he always looked at her and smiled as if he was out of his mind.

Summer threw the clothes in her hand away, curled her lips and said, "Help me choose what to wear today."

If people from the Emersons found fault with her, such as that her clothes were not dignified, or her shoes were not good-looking, she could say they were chosen by Leonardo. "Alright."

Leonardo walked over without the slightest hesitation.

He directly took a down jacket and handed it to Summer.

Summer didn't know want to do.

She didn't want to take the down jacket at all, and even wanted to kick Leonardo out.

Sure enough, she couldn't have any expectations of Leonardo.

It was the first time she went to his home and met with his family members. She wanted to dress beautifully!

Summer looked at him disdainfully. "There are so many beautiful female stars in Tip Top, but you still have no taste in dresses."

"Beautiful female stars?" Leonardo repeated. He turned around and hung back the down jacket that Summer disliked. He seemed to say inadvertently, "You are better than them." Summer was slightly stunned.

Did he mean she was more beautiful?

Leonardo picked a thick dark gray coat and handed it to her. "This one?"

He raised his head and saw Summer staring at him with her beautiful eyes. Her eyes were a little excited and filled with joy.

Leonardo raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

Summer came back to earth. She did not see what kind of clothes he was holding in his hand, but hurriedly nodded and said, "It looks good."

Leonardo looked at her with an unfathomable gaze and reached out to touch her forehead.

The temperature was normal, and she was not sick....

Leonardo did not directly compliment her on her beauty. His words were implicit and tactful, but Summer had automatically changed that sentence from "You are better than them" to "Those female stars are not as beautiful as you."

Although it was a little exaggerated, who didn't like to be complimented for being beautiful?

It wasn't until Summer carried the clothes out that Leonardo finally realized that Summer's expression just now was because of what he said....

But did she need to be so happy?

He was telling the truth.

After breakfast, Tim came over to take them to the old house.

The Emersons' old house was truly old. The hundred-year-old house that had been passed down from the Qing Dynasty had once been valued at nearly 10 billion yuan by experts.

However, in order to make it more comfortable to live in, it had also undergone several repairs, but they still maintained the charm of the ancient mansion.

The Emersons' old house was famous, and there were often tourists who came here to see the house even from far away.

"Mr. Emerson, Mrs. Emerson, here we are."

Summer's uneasy mood miraculously calmed down when she heard Tim's words.

She turned her head to look out of the car window and saw rows of bodyguards and servants standing on both sides of the door to greet them.

Summer had never seen such a dramatic scene before. It felt like they were in a film.

Just as she was about to open the door, Leonardo suddenly pressed down on her hand and said, "Don't move yet."

She turned around and looked at Leonardo in confusion.

However, Leonardo did not say anything. Tim had already gotten out of the car and walked over to open the car door for Leonardo.

After Leonardo got off the car, Tim still stood by the side and held the car door. Leonardo bent down slightly and put one hand on the top of the car door to prevent her from bumping into the door. He extended the other hand to Summer and smiled at her. "You can get off now."

Leonardo was more handsome and charming when he smiled, not to mention the gentlemanly way he invited her out of the car.

Summer thought that she wasn't a particularly romantic person, so she wasn't feeling special, but looking at Leonardo's face, she actually felt her cheeks burning ....

She blushed and put her hand in Leonardo's. Seeing this, Leonardo's smile deepened. He took Summer out of the car and walked towards the door holding her hand.

The servants and bodyguards at the entrance bent down and said respectfully, "Welcome home, Mr. and Mrs. Emerson!"

Although Summer had been married to Leonardo for a period of time, they had always lived in a villa halfway up the mountain. Leonardo did not put on airs in front of her. He would eat whatever she cooked, and he would not be picky about what restaurant she chose.

Therefore, she knew that she had married into a wealthy family, but she didn't feel anything special.

Only at this moment, when she stood at the entrance of the Emersons' old house and was greeted respectfully by a group of servants and bodyguards, did she truly have the feeling of marrying into a wealthy family.

Leonardo felt Summer's hand stiffen slightly, so he gently pinched her palm, turned his head to look at her, and comforted her, "Don't be nervous, just follow me."

Summer pursed her lips and nodded. "Yes."

The layout of the Emersons' old house was not much different from that of the modern villa, but the garden design was more exquisite and unique.☐☐☐
