After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 668: Chapter 672 Her Ancient Castle [1]

The two of them continued onwards together, winding around the forest, and sure enough, not far ahead, abutting the river, another ancient castle stood tall on the hillside, one side facing the river channel, even larger than Huangfu Ruo’s castle.

The castle was brightly lit, reflecting off the river in a shimmering dance of light, as if a river of stars had been scattered across it.

From where Luo Xiaoqian stood, the view before her looked as if it were a scene straight out of a postcard, beautifully dreamlike.

”Do you like it?” Leng Zimo asked from beside her.

”I do,” Luo Xiaoqian instinctively responded.

”Do you want to go inside and have a look?”

”This... Isn’t that a bit presumptuous? We don’t even know the owner!”

”No worries,” Leng Zimo took her hand, striding up the grassy slope, ”I have an extraordinary relationship with the owner of this castle.”

”Really?!” Luo Xiaoqian immediately showed surprise, ”Wouldn’t that be too bold?”

”Not at all, she’s very hospitable,” Leng Zimo walked forward, taking her hand, ”Let’s go!”

Although Luo Xiaoqian felt it was somewhat forward, curiosity truly piqued her interest, having heard that each castle here was distinctly different from the next.

To not take a closer look at such a beautiful castle, when it was right before her eyes, would surely be a pity.

The pair made their way across the lawn without any obstacles, and soon, they stepped onto the staircase, arriving at the closed European-style grand doors.

Leng Zimo paused and suggested, ”Why don’t you knock on the door?”

”But I don’t speak French,” Luo Xiaoqian said, looking at him somewhat helplessly.

”No matter, you have me, don’t you?” Leng Zimo said with an encouraging smile in his eyes.

Luo Xiaoqian nodded, mustered up her courage, and moved forward to knock on the wooden door.

The heavy mahogany door made a pleasing sound, and just as Luo Xiaoqian withdrew her fingers, the door suddenly swung open wide.

A middle-aged man dressed in a black tailcoat opened the door with a smile, stepping aside and gesturing her to enter, then spoke in English with a thick British accent, ”Welcome, Your Royal Highness the Princess!”

Behind him, six maids stood in two rows, each clad in white aprons, all curtseying to her in unison.

A British butler, long-skirted maids, dazzling chandeliers, an opulent hall, and the faint sound of music...

Everything before her resembled a medieval royal ball.

”You...” Luo Xiaoqian stood in stunned surprise, ”You know me?”

At her side, Leng Zimo had already stepped forward, wrapping his arm gently around her waist, ”Let’s go, I’ll show you your castle!”

Her castle?!

Luo Xiaoqian suddenly thought of a possibility, turned her face, and asked in a soft voice, ”Is this... your castle?”

No wonder they hadn’t encountered any resistance on their way up; a castle like this would surely be equipped with surveillance systems for security.

Leng Zimo shook his head gently, ”No, it’s your castle!”

Because all the documentation for the castle bore her name, he was merely acting on her behalf.

”You...” Luo Xiaoqian’s joy mixed with a trace of helplessness, ”This... isn’t this too extravagant?”

When visiting the house before, she had heard Huangfu Ruo mention how valuable their castle was. This castle, being larger than theirs and judging just from the garden in front, must undoubtedly be even more expensive than Huangfu Ruo’s castle.

”Silly girl,” Leng Zimo gently pinched her waist, ”compared to you, my priceless treasure, what is this?”
