The Master's Mask Unveiled Again-Chapter 1266 - 1265: Wedding Preparations

Seeing Lu Mian somewhat incredulous, Xiao Qimo tilted his head, "They said you’d know once you got home." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

After returning from M Country, Lu Mian went directly to Qing University for exams and hadn’t returned to the Yun Family or Xiao Family.

But she knew her parents well enough, what surprises could such straightforward people have?

"Cough, let’s go."

Without thinking too much, Lu Mian, hand in hand with Xiao Qimo, left Qing University.

At the moment, the Yun Family residence was filled with a joyful and festive atmosphere.

As soon as Lu Mian returned home, she was dazzled by the bright red everywhere.

The originally elegant and classic Yun Family home seemed to have switched styles, with bright red lanterns hung high on either side of the vermillion gate, and the bright red "double happiness" character outlined in gold trim, taking up a third of the large door’s size.

Lu Mian twitched her lips, nervously stepping into the courtyard.

Because it was winter in Jinjing, trees and plants were dormant, but today many cold-resistant flowers were arranged temporarily, a swath of crimson displayed in the center of the garden.

Lu Mian marveled internally, truly a testament to her parents’ aesthetic taste.

Xiao Qimo, observing the Yun residence after her in-laws had decorated it, gently scratched Lu Mian’s palm and joked, "Mianmian, does it feel like walking on a wedding red carpet?"

Lu Mian forced a smile, "Not really."

The two of them reached the main building, where Lu Xun, Yun Zhishu, Yun Sang, and Yun Zhijuan were each busy.

Seeing these two return, they immediately put down what they were doing and came over to greet them.

"Dad, Mom, Brother." Lu Mian called out softly three times, her gaze inexplicably lingering on Yun Zhijuan.

"Mian Xiaobao, what about me?" Yun Zhijuan pointed at himself, feeling wronged.

After all, he’d helped her once at the seminar, but this brat didn’t even call him uncle?

Lu Mian curled one side of her lips, smiling very kindly.

"Uncle."

"..." Yun Zhijuan shivered.

With such a gentle voice... it would have been better if she hadn’t called out!

"Mianmian, don’t mind them, Mom has a surprise prepared for you. I’ll take you to see it."

Yun Zhishu eagerly took Lu Mian’s hand, leading her upstairs.

Naturally, Xiao Qimo wanted to follow, but he was stopped by an arm, and the man confusedly looked at Lu Xun.

Lu Xun adjusted his glasses, "Qimo, come play a game of chess with me."

"Dad?"

Xiao Qimo didn’t understand why it was time for chess, and he looked longingly at Lu Mian going upstairs before reluctantly nodding.

Yun Sang patted his brother’s shoulder, "Don’t worry, bro, my dad is terrible at chess."

After saying that, he mischievously ran off after Lu Mian.

Xiao Qimo: ...

So, should I win against my father-in-law, or should I let him win?

Upstairs.

Yun Zhishu led Lu Mian to her room, and as she opened the door, the middle-aged woman cheerfully exclaimed, "Ta-da! Mianmian, take a look!"

Lu Mian first glanced at her mother’s gentle and beautiful, smiling face before turning to look at her bedroom.

She was a bit dumbfounded at the sight.

Lace curtains?

Pink princess bed?

Red carpet?

Beige giant teddy bear?

Overwhelmed by all the girlish items, Lu Mian closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them again.

"Mom, these..."

"This is a new room Mom specially decorated for you, isn’t it beautiful?"

"..." Lu Mian: "It’s quite beautiful."

Yun Zhishu smiled, took her daughter’s hand, and walked inside, explaining, "I know you prefer a simple black and white style, but since the wedding is coming up soon, the room should be a bit festive. I spent a lot of time matching everything together."
