Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!

Su Qing hasn't wasted the past few months in the United States; her English skills have improved rapidly. When discussing professional topics with Susan, she speaks fluently without any hesitation or forgetting words, expressing her design concepts in English effortlessly. Susan's deep blue eyes are fixed on Su Qing, nodding occasionally, seemingly captivated by her.

In fact, Zhou Yuwen also finds himself slightly attracted to this focused Su Qing. As she passionately articulates her ideas, a gentle smile occasionally lifts the corners of her mouth, a reflection of being truly absorbed in something she loves.

The two of them engaged in a three-hour-long conversation. During this time, Zhou Yuwen asked the butler to take him for a walk, and he discovered just how vast the estate really was, even spotting a group of horses running across the prairie, making him eager to saddle up and ride one for fun.

Unfortunately, the butler didn't know the exact price of the estate.

Upon returning, Su Qing and Susan had concluded their discussion. Susan, impressed, remarked to Zhou Yuwen, "You have a very talented partner. I honestly think you don't need to go to great lengths to hire me for the design; your wife is more than capable."

She expressed this praise in Su Qing's presence, causing Su Qing to blush slightly and glance at Zhou Yuwen.

Zhou Yuwen said to Susan, "She still has much to learn. I'm genuinely hoping you can come out of retirement to mentor her. Don't worry about the compensation; I can offer you an enticing deal."

Even before arriving, Zhou Yuwen had asked Lu Wanting to investigate this woman thoroughly and had professionals draft an irresistible offer for her.

Zhou Yuwen handed Susan an envelope, and when she curiously opened it and saw the amount, she couldn't help but whisper "omg" and covered her mouth with her hand, saying, "This offer truly takes me by surprise."

Zhou Yuwen assured her that she deserved it, as she would be Su Qing's teacher from now on.

Feeling overwhelmed by Zhou Yuwen's genuine invitation, Susan couldn't refuse. She ultimately decided to take Su Qing under her wing, becoming the chief designer of the building at Su Qing's studio.

Susan needed time to pack her things, and Zhou Yuwen also wanted to enjoy a couple more days at the estate. So, they all lingered for three days, during which Su Qing started learning design from Susan.

One morning, while Zhou Yuwen and Su Qing were still in bed, they suddenly heard some noise outside, followed by the maids softly saying, "The young lady has returned."

Soon after, the sound of a horse neighing resounded outside.

The loud neighing woke Zhou Yuwen, who furrowed his brows slightly and went to the terrace.

He saw a slim girl, dressed in riding attire, sitting tall on a horse, her booted legs pressing firmly against the stirrups as she tried to calm the horse. Below the horse, three or four estate laborers were doing their best to hold down the horse, finally managing to settle it.

The girl, in an outfit resembling a soldier's, dismounted. The estate's butler approached her, said a few words in her ear, then looked up at Zhou Yuwen on the terrace and pointed at him.

At this moment, the girl also looked up.

Their eyes met, and the girl, with her pair of beautiful deep brown eyes, gave Zhou Yuwen a friendly smile. Her lips were somewhat full, but her smile was particularly charming.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Annie, Heather,"

The girl had a tall and slender frame, wearing white tight-fitting riding pants paired with black boots; her top was a sleeveless shirt over a white chiffon blouse.

Her smile was infectious, and she told Zhou Yuwen, Emma has already filled me in on the situation.

"You're planning to take Susan away, right?"

Heather was indeed the true owner of this estate and a good friend of Susan's. The two of them met with hugs and cheek kisses.

Susan also shared her future plans with Heather. As a friend, Heather was happy for her. Before leaving, Heather treated them to a meal.

The meal was held at the estate itself. Heather was quite a talkative person and didn't stop talking at the dinner table, sharing stories about her family, starting from her great-great-grandfather.

Her great-great-grandfather was a fallen noble from Spain, who came to the American Continent aboard the Mayflower. In those days, the American Continent was barren, filled with hills and dense forests.

Through diligent hands, her great-great-grandfather built a home here and established their family.

As a traditional noble, Heather had an aristocratic sense of superiority but was also very polite, explaining her family's rise and fall while enjoying a steak.

After several generations' ups and downs, only this estate remained.

In fact, Heather's story was similar to many traditional American aristocrats. Zhou Yuwen listened while enjoying his steak, but Su Qing was paying very close attention. Heather's beauty mesmerized Su Qing from the very first glance, making her eager to befriend Heather. Hearing Heather speak about her family's decline, Su Qing naturally asked, "Why don't you get married, Miss Heather?"

"Marriage?" Heather laughed at the question, took a sip of her drink, and casually replied, "Aha, that's an interesting idea."
