C40 (1/2)

The next morning, when Meng Yunhan woke up again, he was no longer by her side. When she went downstairs, the courtyard was filled with the sounds of talking and laughter from the Old Master Yi.

”Dad …” Meng Yunhan called Old Master Yi, who was in the yard talking to palace people about medicinal herbs.

Afterwards, the two of them turned to look at her, put down the things in their hands and walked over. ”Xiao Han, you're awake. You must be hungry. You'll be able to eat later.” Old Master Yi was full of smiles. He was really happy, ever since Yi Yuanze got married, he had not seen this daughter-in-law of his.

Hearing the old man's words, Meng Yunhan smiled and nodded, then asked: ”I'm not hungry, Dad, where is Yi Yuanze?”

”Uncle Yuanze and my mother went back to the city early in the morning. Because they have something to take care of, he told us not to disturb you and to let you rest for a while.” They all knew in their hearts what kind of thing Yi Yuanze was going to take care of. ”My brother went to work, but they told me to stay at home with you, so you shouldn't be too bored.”

”I wonder what matter they have. They left without eating early in the morning.” Old Master Yi grumbled as he walked inside the house.

Meng Yunhan was a little dazed when she heard this. She didn't know whether it was because she had not woken up yet, or because they had not explained everything clearly, Gong Yu went close to Meng Yunhan's ear and whispered to him, ”Grandfather still doesn't know about the matters of the Uncle Yuanze. My mother told everyone to hide it from him, and did not let him know.

Meng Yunhan nodded his head as if she understood something, and then asked: ”Why are you called Yi Yuanze, Uncle Yuanze?”

”Because …”

”What are you guys talking about?” The Old Master Yi who was sitting inside saw the two people standing at the entrance. His mouth formed a smile as he asked.

Gong Yu smiled at Meng Yunhan, then walked in with her in tow, and said: ”Aunt is asking me why I'm called Uncle Yuanze?”

Hearing the two words' Aunt ', Meng Yunhan was truly speechless. She was only a few years older than Gong Yu, to be called Aunt by her, Meng Yunhan found it hard to accept.

The Old Master Yi smiled and nodded, asking Meng Yunhan to sit down. Then he started to speak, ”Originally, they were all called Little Ze's second uncle, but Little Ze didn't like it. After that, they had no choice but to change their names to Uncle Yuanze.”

Seeing Meng Yunhan's frown, Gong Yu knew that she had not heard clearly. She added, ”Usually we call him uncle, referring to Brother Zhengxuan's father, while Little Uncle is the one far away in the camp. Thus, we can only call him Uncle Yuanze.”

Hearing that, Meng Yunhan finally understood, she smiled and nodded, and did not continue asking.

After eating breakfast, Old Master Yi did not continue to be angry at Yi Yuanze for leaving so early. He happily brought along palace language to play with Meng Yunhan's medicinal herbs, telling them many ancient things.

Throughout the entire morning, Meng Yunhan and Gong Yu listened to the old man's story and chatted very happily.

Later, Meng Yunhan told Gong Yu not to want her to call him Aunt, since the two of them were only a few years apart, calling her sister would be fine, but Gong Yu said that seniority could not be chaotic, but Meng Yunhan insisted, and in the end, Gong Yu could only compromise, indicating that she should call her Sister Xiao Han when there were only the two of them, but seniority could not be chaotic, even when there were a lot of people around.

Meng Yunhan felt that his conversation with Gong Yu was very speculative, possibly because they were around the same age, or maybe it was related to their job. Gong Yu was an internship teacher in the early childhood, and what she did was teaching, whereas Meng Yunhan was a doctor, and she did things to save others. They were both doing things to help others, so they had a lot of common language.

On the other side, Yi Yuanze had also gained a lot. In just a single day, they had already found the person who took the photos on the roof that night, and the monitoring system of the restaurants and hotels had also found some clues.

Yi Yuanze sat in his office, looked at the man in front of him, and didn't speak for a long time.

The man in front was completely unsettled by Yi Yuanze's gaze. In the end, he could not help but ask: ”Director Yi, why are you looking for me?”

Zhang Hao, you're a reporter from Rongcheng Entertainment,” Yi Yuanze said calmly, his hands folded across his chest. ”But a month ago, you were beaten up for sneaking a picture, and your boss didn't ask why.

Zhang Hao, who was initially flustered, seemed much calmer than before. He coldly snorted and said: ”So what? Did you ask me about this? ”Since you're done with your questions, and I'm done with my questions, can we leave now?”

After that, he got up and prepared to leave. The atmosphere here was really difficult for him to resist.

”Your mother …” Yi Yuanze slowly said, but then stopped.

Zhang Hao stopped what he was doing, his brows knitted tightly as he looked at Yi Yuanze fiercely, and said: ”What exactly do you want to say?”

”I heard your mother's medical fees are enough, but it seems like you were looking for someone to borrow money from in your circle of friends three days ago. So quickly, you managed to borrow two hundred thousand …”

”This is my personal matter, what does it have to do with you?” Zhang Hao was angry, and shouted at Yi Yuanze.

Yi Yuanze also didn't want to continue beating around the bush. He withdrew the smile on his face and became serious, saying, ”Who gave you the money to wait at the Sky Platform, and then take that photo?”

”I don't know what you're talking about. I'm no longer a journalist. What pictures have I taken? ” Zhang Hao denied what Yi Yuanze had said and his attitude was firm.

Then, Yi Yuanze took out a pile of photos from the folder next to his hand and threw them in front of him, saying: ”This is the surveillance camera of that building, the person in the photo is you, right? The camera in your hand. Could it have something in it that I want? ”

Zhang Hao looked at the photo in front of him and confirmed that it was him. And it seemed that he could no longer pretend to be stupid, he sat down again and asked: ”What do you want to know?”

”We are all smart people, so we don't need to beat around the bush. Who gave you the money to go wait at the roof and take that photo? As long as you tell me, I will not pursue this matter with you. ” Yi Yuanze saw that Zhang Hao seemed to be hesitating, and continued: ”If you don't want to say it, then you should talk to my lawyer.”
