“Ding-dong!” The doorbell rang.
Auntie Zhuang quickly went to open the door.
When Li San pushed Huangfu Ruiling into the living room, Ye Lengan was sitting on the sofa with a tablet. She seemed a little surprised to have visitors at this time.
“What are you doing here?” Ye Leng’an put down her tablet and blinked. “What’s the matter?”
“When did you hire a helper?” Huangfu Ruiling glanced at Auntie Zhuang who just opened the door for them and asked, “I haven’t seen her before.”
“Before I went to the southern boundaries.” Ye Leng’an was not angry that
Huangfu Ruiling did not answer her question. Instead, she calmly replied,
“That’s Auntie Zhuang. She has pretty good cooking skills.”
Huangfu Ruiling raised his eyebrows and asked, “Are you ready to go? “What?” Ye Leng’an couldn’t react in time. “What are you talking about?”
“Have you forgotten?” Seeing that Ye Leng’an was still in a daze, he asked,
“Aren’t you going to do a double-check today? I specially came to pick you up.”
“Oh, yes! How could I have forgotten about this!” Ye Leng’an smacked her head and stood up hurriedly. “Wait a moment. I’ll go upstairs and change my clothes. After that, we can set off.”
She had been busy making money in the stock market these nights, preparing for the upcoming auction. Now, all she thought about was the medicinal herb that was about to appear at the auction, so she had forgotten that she needed to give Zhongyu Yiran a check-up today. If Huangfu Ruiling hadn’t come to pick her up today, she might not have remembered this matter all day.
Downstairs, Auntie Zhuang was going to pour tea for the guests. However, the guests refused, so she took the teacups back to the kitchen.
“Mom, who was that person just now?” As soon as Li Qiaomeng saw Auntie
Zhuang, she immediately stopped her mother and asked. “He’s so handsome!”
That man looked noble and elegant. No, compared to a noble young master, he was more like an emperor who had the situation well in hand. However, it was a pity that he was in a wheelchair.
“Why are you asking so much?” Auntie Zhuang glared at Li Qiaomeng. “I’m warning you, don’t have any wicked ideas. You have to know that they can wring us to death effortlessly.”
She knew her daughter. Although Li Qiaomeng did not have any bad intentions, she liked to take shortcuts since she was vainglorious. So, when Li Qiaomeng suddenly asked about it) she didn’t think it was a good thing.
“Mom, what are you talking about?” Hearing the warning, Li Qiaomeng was very angry. “I asked that question because I’m just curious. You don’t need to make a drama out of it.”
“You’re my daughter, so I know your tricks.” Auntie Zhuang said bluntly, “If I’m wrong, then I’ll apologize to you. However, what I said today is just to give you a heads-up. No matter who that person is, it has nothing to do with us, understand?”
Li Qiaomeng felt very uncomfortable, but she did not dare to disobey her mother. In the end, she could only nod her head unwillingly under Auntie Zhuang’s gaze.
Ye Leng’an quickly changed her clothes, went downstairs, and left with
Huangfu Ruiling.
This time, they didn’t head to the nursing home, but to a relatively quiet small villa in the suburbs. It seemed to be a very suitable place for recuperation.
Zhongyu Yiran looked much better today, and there was some color on her face, so she didn’t look as sickly as before. Instead, she had a beauty of vulnerability and self-will.
“Brother Huangfu, you’re here!” The first person Zhongyu Yiran saw at a glance was none other than Huangfu Ruiling. Perhaps, she could see nobody but Huangfu Ruiling. As soon as she saw him, she could not suppress the joy in her heart.
However, different from Zhongyu Yiran who was overwhelmed by excitement, Huangfu Ruiling appeared much colder. He had no response and didn’t even look at her for a second.
He didn’t look like he was here to visit Zhongyu Yiran at all. No one was clear about what he was here for.
Li Yi, who was at the side, saw that Zhongyu Yiran was being treated coldly, and his heart ached for her. However, it was not appropriate for him to say anything on such an occasion. Moreover, that was his master, so he dared not speak out in favor of her..
