Lu Shouyue's duplex flat combines classic Shanghai style with modern Italian design, its neutral dark tones hinting at a simplicity that isn't simplistic.
The living and dining areas form a cohesive space, and the study is also open-plan, with concealed screen doors that can be closed for private work.
The housekeeper arranges for a few maids to come every three days to clean and ventilate the rooms, so it remains spotless.
Living here alone feels too spacious; according to Huaxia's feng shui principles, a large house with few people tends to have more misfortune than good luck, so Lu Shouyue only stays occasionally.
But today, the house has gained a beauty, making the vast space seem particularly lively.
Anywhere Lu Shouyue looks seems beautiful, and ultimately, he can't focus on documents; he can't work. He can't resist sneaking upstairs again.
He quietly opens the door to the east master bedroom and gazes silently at the sleeping Lin Wanwan by the dim glow of the wall lamp.
