C120 (1/2)
When the time came for work to end, Ye Yan Xi impatiently left the office. When she arrived at the main hall, she heard a few security guards whispering to each other.
It seemed like Chu Beize broke a vase or something like that in the hall. Since it had nothing to do with her, Ye Yan Xi immediately went out to take a ride.
Fortunately, Ye Yan Xi had gotten off earlier. She quickly got on a taxi and, according to the Old Master's plan, went straight to the Heavenly Heart Square.
It was not even six when they arrived at the Tianxin Square.
Standing at the side of the fountain at the edge of the plaza, Ye Yanxi looked around, but she didn't see Old Master Xiao. Thus, she picked up the phone and dialed the number she had saved up last night.
The bell only rang twice before it was picked up.
”Hey!” It was the voice of an unfamiliar man. It sounded very young.
Ye Yan Xi frowned and asked in puzzlement, ”Hello, is this grandpa Xiao's phone number?”
”You are Miss Ye.” The other party asked.
”Yes.” Seeing that she made the right call, Ye Yan Xi heaved a sigh of relief. She then continued to ask, ”I've already reached the Heavenly Heart Square.”
It seemed like Grandpa Xiao had used someone else's phone to call her. He should be afraid that others would know his number.
”Look, at the direction of 10 o'clock, there's a car parked by the roadside. You can come straight over, I'll take you to see the Old Master.”
”Alright.”
After hanging up, Ye Yan saw that there was indeed a car parked there. As soon as she crossed the road, a person waved at her from the car. After confirming, Ye Yan Xi walked over to the car.
Along the way, Ye Yanxi felt that this person's speed was very fast, but she also felt that she was purposely circling around.
At last the car stopped in front of a hotel, and the man told her to go straight in and give her the number of the box.
Looking at the classical decorations of the restaurant, Ye Yanxi felt a little depressed. Why didn't the Old Master ask her to wait here directly, and instead asked her to meet him at the Tianxin Square?
However, it didn't matter even if he couldn't figure it out.
After entering the restaurant, Ye Yanxi went straight to the room where the Xiao family's old patriarch was.
In the corridor, Ye Yanxin was slowly looking for room numbers one by one. In front of her, there was a man walking leisurely around, wearing a black baseball cap that covered most of his face.
Ye Yan Xi hurriedly glanced at him and wanted to overtake him. But suddenly, there seemed to be something missing from his bag. However, the man didn't notice that she was still walking.
Ye Yan Xi took a closer look and discovered that it was something like a black leather wallet, but it didn't seem like it at all.
Seeing that the man didn't know anything, Ye Yan Xi picked it up and chased after him, ”Hey, big brother, you dropped your wallet.”
Hearing someone call him brother, Jiang Huai Ming immediately turned around happily.
Ye Yan Xi quickly handed the wallet to him, ”Big brother, yours …”
Before she could finish, Ye Yan saw a wisp of white hair under the hat. Judging from this person's appearance, he should be at least 50 to 60 years old.
Jiang Huai Ming took the wallet and praised with a smile: ”Little sister, you're such a good person.”
Little sister, isn't this what older people usually called girls?
”Uncle, you should take your things properly next time. Don't drop them again.” Ye Yan Xi had changed her name this time.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she felt that the other party was a little unhappy. Her face darkened, ”Uncle? Am I that old? ”
Don't like people calling him uncle?
Ye Yan Xi was stunned for a moment and immediately reacted. She smiled and added, ”Big Brother, you're not old at all. You look very young.”
It was just a few greetings, yet it made Jiang Huai Ming smile again.
”Little girl, your mouth is so sweet. Oh yeah, I'm surnamed Luo, you can call me Brother Luo!”
”...” Ye Yan Xi smiled awkwardly, ”Alright, Big Brother Luo.”
Thinking that she had to hurry to see the Xiao family's old patriarch, Ye Yan Xi decided to leave first. She saw two people walking towards her, one was Lady Jiang, the other was Jiang Ye.
”Dad, what are you doing? Are we waiting for you?” Jiang Ye called out.
Jiang Huai Ming's face immediately darkened: ”What are you trying to urge me for? Didn't you see that I'm talking to someone? ”
Seeing a little girl standing in front of Jiang Huai Ming, Jiang Ye immediately became speechless. He didn't need to think about it. His father was using his special qualities to attract a little girl. He was even forcing her to call him big brother.
To think that he was even a general and had openly teased this little girl.
”This little …” Jiang Ye was about to apologize on behalf of his father, but he looked at Ye Yan Xi with a bit of surprise in his eyes, ”Yi, Miss Ye, it's you!”
Jiang Ye had heard of Ye Yanxi from Shen Jingshu. Shen Jingshu had told him that she was Xiao Yu's woman, but he had never seen her before.
However, he had seen the photo before. Shen Jingshu even proudly waved the photo in front of him, saying that this was his goddess, which was why Jiang Ye could recognize Ye Yan Xi at first glance. It was just that Ye Yan Xi didn't recognize him.
