Chapter 27.18 (2/2)

An hour later, Wei Zhi Xian drove over to pick her up. She could not help but showed a surprised look to see her: “How did you end up like this?”

He He had been in tears and the cold wind had frozen her mouth and face with shallow scars. Extremely embarra.s.sing.

The old married couple added on the side: “This is much better now. The look earlier was much more pathetic.”

Wei Zhi Xian brought over Zheng Xie’s driver. “On this type of road, if I were to drive myself, I would only arrive at dawn.”

He He asked: “Why would you rather let the elderly be messenger and not calling me to inform me directly?”

“You also know how stubborn Director Zheng is. When he said to keep it quiet and not let anyone know, who would dare to even leak a single word to anyone. I guess that you would come back to tidy up so left a message through the elderly couple. You can also save a trip back to see him. Really did not think that you would come back. I am really lucky to hit it.”

“When I could not find him, I did not dare to call anyone else.”

“People do not know about it. His phone have been switched off. When someone asked me, I only say that he has gone abroad on holiday.”

When they reached the destination, it was almost midnight. In the midst of the snow and darkness, He He could not recognize the place.

This is the old house that Zheng Xie’s mother when she was still alive used to stay. It is an independent cottage with a small courtyard. Ancient and simple styled. He He also had spent several years here. Later when Zheng Xie’s mother pa.s.sed away, and both gone back to school, they had never gone back to the house to stay. Later there were urban renewal, so the area were developed and became unrecognizable. He He always though there the house had been removed but did not expect that the original has been retained so well.

It is so late but the villa’s light were lighted.

Wei Zhi Xian introduced He He: “This is Aunty w.a.n.g. After the death of Aunty Qian, she has been taking care of the house. In the evening there is a nurse to take care of Director Zheng. During the day, Dr. Li and Nurse Liu would come over.”

Aunty w.a.n.g said: “I know Miss He He. I have seen her when she was a little baby girl.” He He later realized that this Aunty w.a.n.g is the sister of the former old nurse at home. She was once Zheng Xie’s nanny.

Wei Zhi Xian asked: “How is Mr Zheng tonight?”
