Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 1097 Heart

, but Lu Chengyuan merely frowned, asked if she was hurt, and then had Uncle Zhang buy a new one, without a single word of blame. Another time, her mother's condition suddenly worsened, requiring immediate surgery, and they were still 50,000 yuan short. Su Wan was terrified, unsure where to find the money. Upon learning of this, Lu Chengyuan offered her a bank card with 100,000 yuan in it, claiming it was "three months' salary in advance," and told her to use it to pay for her mother's surgery. Gratitude welled up in Su Wan's hand, unsure how to repay Lu Chengyuan. She could only work harder, improving the villa. The tension between them grew increasingly strained, like a thin layer of window paper that would break with the slightest poke. Yet, they both knew the gap in status was an unbridgeable chasm between them. Lu Chengyuan was the high-ranking CEO, while she was just an ordinary maid. Nothing was destined to happen between them. Su Wan could only keep this delicate feeling to herself, quietly continuing to do her job, fearing any undue ambition. Lu Chengyuan, also concerned about his status, dared not take that step rashly. He could only silently watch over Su Wan, caring for and protecting her in his own way. Unbeknownst to them, the gears of fate had already begun to turn. An unexpected event threatened to shatter their peace, forcing them to confront their inner feelings. The rainbow cake incident: Gray Wolf's "sweet trap." The first rays of morning sun, like melted honey, spread across the rainbow grasslands. The seven-colored flowers on the grasslands bloomed in the sunlight, their red petals resembling tiny flames, yellow like tiny suns, and purple like tiny stars. A gentle breeze blew dewdrops from the petals onto the green grass, creating miniature rainbows. "Star Sheep! Wake up! Today is the village chief's birthday. We're going to pick the freshest strawberries for a cake!" The chubby voice, like a spring-loaded spring, could be heard from three sheepfolds away. He was covered in snow-white wool, his belly chubby, and when he ran, his wool bounced back and forth, making him look like a moving being. He was crouching outside the fence of Xing Yangyang's sheep pen, his claws clinging to the wooden bars, his eyes wide open, staring at Xing Yangyang's door. Xing Yangyang's door creaked open, and a lamb wearing a small silver bell stepped out. His fleece was fluffier than the others, and on his forehead was a tuft of light blue wool, like a tiny star—this was Xing Yangyang, the cleverest lamb on the Rainbow Grassland. He rubbed his eyes and shook the bell around his neck, which rang out a crisp, "ding-ding-ding" sound. "I know, I know, Yuan-Gun-Gun! If you keep yelling, you'll wake up all the rabbits on the grassland." "Oh, I'm just anxious! The village chief loves strawberry cake. If we're late, the sweetest strawberry will surely be picked by the butterflies in Butterfly Valley!" Yuan-Gun-Gun said, his stomach growling. He scratched his head sheepishly. "Besides... I want to try some freshly picked strawberries." Xing Yangyang smiled helplessly and pulled a bamboo basket from the sheep pen. "Let's go, but we have a deal: you can't steal any strawberries while you're picking them. You have to save them for the cake." He had just finished speaking when he heard the thump-thump-thump of footsteps behind him—Zhuangzhuang ran over, holding a carrot taller than him. Zhuangzhuang had light brown wool and sturdier muscles than the other lambs. He always wore a small helmet woven from vines on his head, making him a famous "little warrior" of the Rainbow Grassland. "Xingyangyang! Chubby! Wait for me! I'm going to pick strawberries too!" Zhuangzhuang stuffed carrots into a bamboo basket. "These are the carrots I dug this morning. The village chief said carrot cake is delicious too. We can make a strawberry and carrot cake!" The three lambs chatted and laughed as they headed towards the strawberry fields on the eastern edge of the grassland. On the way, they met Meiyangyang, who was watering seven-colored flowers. Meiyangyang had a small pink flower pinned to her wool and was holding a small sprinkler. "Xingyangyang, are you guys going to pick strawberries? I just saw a lot of bees over there in the strawberry fields. Be careful." Xingyangyang nodded and pulled three small mint hats from his pocket. "Don't worry, we have these. The bees won't sting us." Soon, the strawberry fields appeared before their eyes. A lush green vine was laden with bright red strawberries, some still covered in morning dew, looking particularly tempting. Yuan Yuan's eyes lit up instantly, and just as he was about to rush over to pick the strawberries, Xing Yangyang stopped him. "Wait, let's check for traps first." He crouched down, carefully examining the ground around the strawberry patch. Last year, Gray Wolf had dug a trap next to the strawberry patch, and luckily he'd spotted it in time, otherwise Yuan Yuan would have fallen into it. "Oh, Xing Yangyang, you're just too cautious! Gray Wolf was beaten with a frying pan by Red Wolf yesterday, so he definitely wouldn't dare come!" Yuan Yuan said, breaking free from Xing Yangyang's hand and running towards the largest strawberry. The strawberry was bigger than Yuan Yuan's fist, bright red, and looked incredibly sweet. But just as he reached out to pick it, there was a sudden "click" beneath his feet, and the ground gave way, revealing a dark hole. "Be careful!" Xing Yangyang shouted, grabbing Yuan Yuan's wool. Zhuang Zhuang quickly came to help, and together they pulled Yuan Yuan out. Yuangungun was so scared that his face turned pale. He patted his chest and said, "That was a close call. I almost fell down!" Xingyangyang squatted down and looked into the cave. The cave was covered with a layer of soft hay. There was a small tape recorder next to it, and the bleating sound of sheep was playing on the tape recorder. "It's a trap set by Gray Wolf!" Xingyangyang frowned. "He used the bleating of sheep to lure us in, and he also spread hay in the hole, hoping we'd fall in and be unable to climb out." Zhuangzhuang clenched his fists in anger: "Damn Gray Wolf! He wants to catch us again! Let's go find him!" Xingyangyang shook his head: "No, if we go find him now, he'll definitely run away. Let's finish picking the strawberries first, and then think of a way to teach him a lesson." Yuanyuangun swallowed and looked at the big strawberry: "Then... can we still pick that strawberry?" Xingyangyang smiled and said, "Of course, but we have to fill the trap first." The three of them gathered branches and soil, filled the hole in the trap, and placed a large rock on top to prevent other small animals from falling in. After picking the strawberries, the three lambs returned to the Sheep Village with a basket full of strawberries. In the Sheep Village square, the other lambs had already started setting up the birthday party. Lazy Sheep was lying in a hammock, eating grass biscuits and blowing up a balloon. The balloon was too big, and it exploded with a "bang", splashing biscuit crumbs all over his face.
