121 Veiled in Darkness!

As the soft hum of the city life resonated in the distance, the riverfront villa, nestled on the bank of the Huangpu River, stood with understated elegance.

Its two stories held a quiet dignity, with the prime riverside location making it one of the most coveted properties in Shanghai.

The villa's interior was a sanctuary of warmth and light, the kitchen a heart that pumped the fragrance of home-cooked meals throughout the rooms.

Fu Yuxin, a young lady commanding the kitchen, moved with a practiced grace. Her delicate features were a testament to youthful beauty — her skin was fair and her eyes, framed by long, sweeping lashes, held a depth of warmth. Her hair cascaded in gentle waves, soft and dark, occasionally caught by the light to reveal hints of a deep, rich black. It was as if she had stepped out of a portrait, her appearance effortlessly blending with the villa's serene atmosphere.
