C119 (1/2)
He had seen her in the hospital, and her surname was Xiao!
The voice sounded like it belonged to an old man. It was hoarse and filled with a sense of competence.
In his mind, the image of the serious and powerful old man from the hospital appeared, Old Master Xiao! Ye Yan Xi suddenly felt an invisible pressure pressing down on her, even though she hadn't personally seen Old Master Xiao.
Not to mention that he was also Xiao Yu's grandfather.
”Ah, hello Grandpa Xiao!” Ye Yanxi reacted and politely greeted him. She felt a burst of nervousness in her heart and the hand holding the phone was slightly shaking. She pressed the phone close to her ear and asked, ”I don't know. What business does Grandpa Xiao have with me?”
Old Master Xiao did not waste any time and went straight to the point. ”If anything happens, come to Heavenly Heart Square tomorrow and make this call when you arrive!”
”Alright, then I'll go over tomorrow after work.”
As Ye Yan replied, the Old Master Xiao also hung up the phone. That kind of domineering temperament was a match for Xiao Yu.
She hadn't seen Xiao Yu's father before, but she had heard from Chu Beize that Xiao Yu and his father didn't have a good relationship.
It was also said that 10 years ago, when Xiao Yu was staying at Chu Beize's home, something happened, causing the relationship between Xiao Yu and his father to completely break off. Chu Beize's mother tried several times to get close to them, but it was to no avail.
Even though Xiao Yu and his father weren't that close, their relationship was still very good. After that incident, Xiao Yu was brought back from the Chu Clan to live with his grandfather.
This Old Master's temper couldn't be too similar to Xiao Yu's. He must have obtained this through some sort of subtle means. Thus, Xiao Yu's personality was most likely under the control of Great Master Xiao.
This was the first time she had come into contact with someone from Xiao Yu's family, so she felt uneasy.
After hanging up, Ye Yanxi saw that the bodyguards had already walked towards the elevator. After the elevator stopped, a person came out. It was He Man.
The He family had booked the entire hotel, so it was normal for He Man to appear here.
She saw He Man seemingly scolding the bodyguards with a ferocious expression. The big, sturdy men all slightly bent their bodies with respectful looks.
Then, He Man got into the elevator again, and the bodyguards got in another elevator.
Ye Yanxi watched as that person disappeared into the elevator along with the group.
Originally, she wanted to wait outside for a while, maybe that bodyguard would come out. However, the door saw that she was not leaving and told her that those people wouldn't come out again tonight.
Because of that call from Old Master Xiao, Ye Yanxi had been out of sorts the entire night, unable to sleep at all. After tormenting her for an entire night, she woke up the next day as soon as the sky turned white. The first thing she did when she woke up was to see Xiao Yu's grandfather after work. She rummaged through the cabinet and finally found a light colored shirt and black pants that looked more formal and proper.
She had originally wanted to wear a dress, but the thought of Xiao Yu warning her to wear it all the way to her knees made her want to wear it. She didn't have such a long dress, otherwise it would have reached her ankles.
After changing his clothes and washing his face and rinsing his mouth, he went out the door.
The company still didn't see Xiao Yu. No one knew where Xiao Yu had gone to, but everyone was still doing their duty peacefully. No one knew that their boss was currently at the border between life and death.
Ye Yan Xi also forced herself into her work, making herself too busy to let her imagination run wild.
Today, she didn't even go to the CEO's office on the top floor to take a look. She usually went to work, perhaps because she had to see the Old Master in the afternoon.
Xiao Yu was brought away by the Old Master, so he must know about Xiao Yu's current condition. Perhaps the Old Master could give her the answer he wanted.
Thinking of this, her heart once again calmed down. All she wanted was to quickly get off work and leave.
However, just as she was looking forward to getting off work, an unexpected person came into the company. When her colleagues told her that someone was looking for her, she was filled with doubts about who would look for her.
As she walked out of the office in confusion, she saw Chu Beize standing outside. However, his face was a bit unsightly.
”Why did you call the company?” Ye Yan Xi was getting impatient.
”Why can't I come to you? You didn't want to see me before, so of course I came. ” Chu Beize's eyes were fixed on her, and his expression wasn't looking too good.
”I've said it clearly enough, do you really not understand?”
In the past, Chu Beize thought Ye Yanxi was beautiful, obedient, and did whatever he said. He even felt that it was a little boring, but she had a pretty face that he brought along with him. But now, even though she was still very beautiful, she was still tiresome and disgusted with him for always giving him such a cold face … But even so, Chu Beize was still unable to forget her. The more she hated him, the closer he wanted to get to his.
Thus, humans were born with a despicable trait.
”Come out with me!” Chu Beize said coldly.
Chu Beize seemed to be deliberately looking for trouble, but after thinking for a while, Ye Yanxi still followed him. With Chu Beize's ability, there was nothing he could do to her, so she wanted to see how long he could continue causing trouble.
Chu Beize walked forward until he reached a staircase. Other than the two of them, there was no one else.
Ye Yan Xi didn't follow him inside. She stood a few steps away from him and said, ”You can say it now.”
Chu Beize was a bit agitated and wanted to grab Ye Yan's hand, but she quickly dodged his hand.
