Gu Fei spent the night at Ye Yun's estate—just one night, and nothing happened.
After all, this wasn't some romance novel where steamy plot twists pop up just because two people share a roof.
Ye Yun was up early. After breakfast, he pulled out the ancient map he had gotten from Larrick and began comparing it to the Treasure Map, trying to pinpoint the treasure's location.
Gu Fei, on the other hand, didn't wake up until after nine. She came downstairs in a silk nightgown.
Though the gown was loose, it still couldn't hide her stunning figure—the curves of her body were impossible to miss.
Looking at the languid yet alluring Gu Fei, Ye Yun had to admit she was breathtaking. No wonder she had millions of fans—she absolutely had the looks to back it up.
"If her fans found out that their goddess spent the night at some guy's place, they'd probably be heartbroken."
That wicked thought flashed through Ye Yun's mind, and he couldn't help but chuckle mischievously.
"What are you laughing at?"
Noticing his gaze, Gu Fei glared at him, her face flushing red.
"Ahem, nothing. Breakfast is on the table."
Ye Yun quickly looked away and coughed, turning his attention back to the Treasure Map.
Gu Fei picked up a cup of coffee and walked over. When she spotted the maps on the coffee table, her eyes lit up and she asked excitedly, "Is that a Treasure Map?"
"Yeah, I came across it by chance. Just trying to figure it out."
Ye Yun nodded casually while examining the similarities among the maps.
Gu Fei watched for a bit, then suddenly pointed to a spot on one of the maps. "Doesn't this look like the place marked on the Treasure Map?"
Ye Yun followed her finger and laughed. "Impossible. That's part of the ocean. The treasure site on the map is clearly on an island."
"What if it used to be an island and sank?"
"…"
Ye Yun froze for a moment, then his eyes lit up.
She was right! Hawaii was an earthquake-prone region. The Treasure Map was ancient, and it was entirely possible the island had sunk. Why hadn't he thought of that?
"Gu Fei, thank you so much. How did you know?"
Now that it all clicked, Ye Yun was so thrilled he nearly jumped for joy.
Caught up in the moment, he grabbed Gu Fei's delicate hand.
"I just love adventure novels and movies, so I guessed."
Gu Fei smiled sweetly, a bit proud of herself.
Thinking again about the Treasure Map, she curiously asked, "So what's hidden in the treasure spot? Could it really be treasure?"
"This has been a family secret for over a hundred years. Only my family knows. Want to find out?"
Ye Yun said mysteriously.
"Yes!"
Gu Fei's eyes lit up with curiosity, the word slipping out without thinking.
But when she caught the sly look on Ye Yun's face, she instantly realized what she'd just implied—and her face turned bright red.
Only Ye Yun's family could know… and she wanted to know too? Didn't that mean she was volunteering to become part of his… family?
"You said it yourself. I guess I'll have to tell you."
Ye Yun grinned wickedly.
"I'm not listening! I'm not listening!"
Gu Fei immediately covered her ears and pouted, her flushed face making her look even more beautiful.
Her adorable reaction made Ye Yun burst out laughing.
Living the easy life, teasing beautiful women—this was exactly what the rich life should be.
Just then, Sebas walked in and bowed. "Young Master, there's a visitor outside. She says she's here for Miss Gu."
"For you?"
Ye Yun looked at Gu Fei with surprise.
"It's probably Qiaoqiao coming to pick me up. I told her last night I was staying here."
Gu Fei said after thinking for a moment.
"Alright then, go change. Sebas, please bring the guest in."
"Yes, Young Master."
Sebas bowed and left. Gu Fei also went upstairs to change.
Soon after, a refined-looking young woman entered the living room with Sebas.
Seeing her, Ye Yun said, "You're here for Gu Fei? She's changing right now."
The elegant woman was Wang Qiaoqiao. But at the moment, her expression was a bit nervous—clearly overwhelmed by the grandeur of the estate.
"Y-You are…?"
She sat down cautiously and looked at Ye Yun, asking nervously.
"I'm an old classmate of Gu Fei's. We met on the plane that day."
Ye Yun pushed the coffee toward her and smiled warmly—his demeanor elegant and gentle.
True charisma is hard to fake. But with a Hawaiian estate and a luxury villa backing him, not to mention the confidence that came with them, it could definitely be exuded.
To Wang Qiaoqiao, Ye Yun seemed like a proper young nobleman. The more she looked, the more convinced she was that he came from an elite family.
Remembering her attitude on the plane, her heart filled with regret and anxiety.
As she sat there nervously, Gu Fei came downstairs, now dressed.
"Beauty Queen Gu!"
Wang Qiaoqiao shot to her feet like she'd just seen her savior.
Being alone with Ye Yun was nerve-wracking. She couldn't explain it, but she felt completely out of place.
The tension and guilt made every minute feel like an eternity.
Seeing Wang Qiaoqiao so flustered, Gu Fei shot Ye Yun a curious glance, wondering what he had done to shake the always-proud Wang Qiaoqiao like this.
"Thanks for letting me stay the night."
Gu Fei sincerely thanked Ye Yun.
"No worries. We're classmates, after all. You're welcome here anytime. This estate is too quiet for just one person."
Ye Yun smiled faintly, then glanced at her with a playful twinkle. "If you ever feel like hearing the secret behind that treasure, I'd be happy to share it."
At that, Gu Fei blushed furiously and shot him a glare before dragging a bewildered Wang Qiaoqiao out of the villa.
The Butler escorted them to the estate gate and helped them into the car, while Ye Yun simply waved farewell from the villa's balcony.
Sitting in the car, Gu Fei looked back at the slowly closing estate gates, lost in thought before finally turning away.
Wang Qiaoqiao couldn't hold back her curiosity. "Beauty Queen Gu, who is that classmate of yours? Which wealthy family's young master is he?"
"Him?"
Gu Fei looked absentminded, then glanced down at the hand Ye Yun had held, a soft smile playing at her lips.
"He's… an interesting man."
