After dinner, Nan Mu and Li MO cleared the table and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes without getting prompted.

Huo Xunzhou stood up.

“Follow me.”

Lin Shanchu followed Huo Xunzhou upstairs.

When Huo Xunzhou passed by the study, he stopped in his tracks. “Wait for me in the study.”

Lin Shanchu stepped into the study room for a second before leaving the room. She peeked in the direction Huo Xunzhou had left.

Then, she saw Huo Xunzhou enter the bedroom.

Was he going to the bedroom to get the gift he had brought for her?

Lin Shanchu hadn’t received a gift for many years, so she was looking forward to it.

She returned to the study.

Huo Xunzhou’s study room was decorated in a similar style to the villa.

There were books, a desk, a chair, and a couch.

Other than that, there was nothing else.

It was minimalistic and simple.

It was as if he was ready to leave at any moment.

Lin Shanchu stood in front of the bookshelf and looked at the titles.

She realized that many of the books were still sealed.

The door opened behind her.

Huo Xunzhou entered the study with a brown handbag that had a simple design.

As he approached, Lin Shanchu could smell the fragrance.

“It’s incense.” Lin Shanchu sniffed carefully.

“What incense?” Huo Xunzhou asked.

Hearing this, Lin Shanchu reached out to grab the handbag.

Huo Xunzhou raised his arm and held the handbag high.

There was a height difference between the two of them. Lin Shanchu couldn’t reach the handbag even after standing on her tiptoes.

‘What are you doing? How am I supposed to guess if I can’t smell it carefully?” Lin Shanchu gritted her teeth.

“I’ll give it to you if you guess it right,” Huo Xunzhou said, unmoved.

“You…” How could there be a gift that could only be given if one guessed correctly?

“I don’t want it anymore!” Lin Shanchu snorted coldly.

She turned around to leave.

“If you admit that you can’t guess it, I can give it to you right away,” Huo Xunzhou said casually.

Lin Shanchu felt that this man was clearly provoking her.

Admitting defeat was impossible!

Lin Shanchu stopped in her tracks and turned around.

Huo Xunzhou’s eyes flashed with a look of victory, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

Lin Shanchu pursed her lips and glared at him.

The fragrance was very faint, but it was very familiar.

He must have smelled it somewhere.

Huo Xunzhou had always been a cautious and orderly person. Even if it was a gift, it wouldn’t be as simple as picking a random one.

Lin Shanchu thought for a moment and asked, “Cypress?”

Huo Xunzhou lowered his eyes and handed the bag to Lin Shanchu.

“I knew it. You’re so smart, Shanshan, so you’ll definitely be able to guess correctly. ”

Lin Shanchu took it with a complicated expression on her face.

When her mother passed away, she was already six years old.

She had some vague memories of her mother’s life.

Her mother was a clever person.

She loved to craft and also made incense in the past.

Incense could help calm people down while chasing mosquitoes away.

However, what her mother often made was the cypress incense that her father liked.

Cypress incense was her childhood memory.

However, it had been so long that she had almost forgotten the smell.

Was Huo Xunzhou giving her this because of her mother? Lin Shanchu smiled faintly, wanting to test Huo Xunzhou.

“Is this the only gift you’ve prepared for me?”

The raw materials of cypress incense were simple. Even the production process was simple as well.

To put it bluntly, it was worthless.

“It may be a small gift, but it’s meaning is priceless,” Huo Xunzhou replied, not looking angry at all.

Lin Shanchu said, “Well, it’s true that this gift is quite small…’

“I ground it myself.” Huo Xunzhou suddenly interrupted her.

Lin Shanchu was stunned.

The final step of the handmade cypress fragrance was to grind the dried cypress into powder by hand before using it.

“If you don’t like it, you can return it to me,” Huo Xunzhou said as he reached out to take it.

“There’s no reason to take back something that’s given out.” Lin Shanchu immediately hid the handbag behind herself.

Her anxious look was a little childish.

Huo Xunzhou couldn’t help but smile.

Lin Shanchu changed the topic in frustration. “I want to light some incense.”

Huo Xunzhou sat down at the table, took out the incense burner, and opened the incense box.

His slender and beautiful fingers pinched the incense mold and took out the incense. He then placed it into the incense burner and lit it up. He was focused and serious throughout the entire process.

The entire scene was extremely pleasing to the eye.

When the fragrant mist started rising from the incense burner, the fragrance spread throughout the room.

“Mdm. Ning used to make cypress incense in May,” Huo Xunzhou said slowly.

“It’s July now. The season isn’t right, so the fragrance is different.”

After Huo Xunzhou finished speaking, he didn’t get a response from Lin Shanchu for a long time, so he looked up at her.

Only then did he realize that Lin Shanchu was staring straight at him.

“Lin bnancnu,” rtuo xunznou canea alter a momentary pause.

“Hmm?” Lin Shanchu suddenly came back to her senses.

She was actually entranced by the sight of Huo Xunzhou lighting the incense.

“Did you hear what I said?” Huo Xunzhou asked.

“Yes. It’s true that my mother liked to make cypress incense in May,” Lin Shanchu said. “But I think the smell is the same as when I was young. ‘ Her parents had sacrificed their lives for the Lu Corporation.

Yet, Lu Shiyuan could not even remember their death anniversary.

Lin Shanchu’s mother had treated Huo Xunzhou well for a period of time when he was young, but he remembered it until now.

The difference between people was huge.

“Xunzhou?”

Nan Mu’s voice came from outside.

Then, there was a knock on the door.

Nan Mu and Li MO pushed the door open and entered.

“I knew you two were in the study.”

Nan Mu sniffed. “What’s that smell? It smells good. ” “Cypress incense.” Lin Shanchu explained.

“Incense? Get me some too!” Nan Mu strode over.

Lin Shanchu silently hugged the box of incense Huo Xunzhou had given her.

“Huo Xunzhou gave it to me.”

“Xunzhou…”

“Go get it from my bedroom,” Huo Xunzhou said coldly.

“As expected of my brother!” Nan Mu turned around and ran out happily. Lin Shanchu pursed her lips and asked casually, “Everyone has the same gift?”

Huo Xunzhou only gave her a half-smile.

Lin Shanchu also felt that her question was a little strange.

She quickly adjusted his emotions and asked as if nothing had happened, “Did you really go to the mountains for a business trip?”

‘Yes.”

“Xunzhou, this doesn’t seem like incense!”

Nan Mu pushed the door open and entered with a jar in his arms.

He put the jar on the table. “Incense is supposed to be powder form, right? Why does this look like herbs?”

Lin Shanchu glanced at it and realized that it was dried cypress leaves.

She could not help but smile.

Everyone did receive a gift from Huo Xunzhou.

However, Huo Xunzhou had personally ground hers.

Nanmu had dried cypress leaves, but he had to grind them himself.

Li MO looked at Nan Mu with disdain. “Grind it into powder and you can use it.”

“Is that so?”

“That’s right. I’ll buy an incense burner to burn when the time comes.” Li MO looked proud. He had learned a lot from his big brother.

Nan Mu was silent for two seconds before he stuffed the jar into Li MO’s arms.

“It’s too troublesome. Forget it.”

At this moment, Lin Shanchu’s phone rang.

She took out her phone and her expression froze.

The call was from Lu Shiyuan.

It seemed like time was up.

The police had no evidence and had no choice but to release Lu Shiyuan within 24 hours..
