C173 (1/2)

Ye Junze's unsettled expression caused Ye Yan Xi to frown. She went to the kitchen and brought out a few oranges.

Ye Junze happened to see Ye Junze standing by the window. As soon as he heard the sound of the car, his whole body seemed to tense up. He followed the car until it was out of earshot, and then he heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on the sofa.

Ye Yan Xi handed him an orange, ”Dad, what are you always looking out for?”

Ye Junze mechanically reached out to take the orange, absent-mindedly saying, ”Nothing, not looking at what?”

”Dad, you are really weird today. What are you worried about? Can't you tell me? ” Ye Yanxi was a bit worried, and she suspiciously looked at Ye Junze.

”You're thinking too much. I'm fine. I'm fine, I'm fine.” Ye Junze immediately smiled at her.

”Is that so?” Ye Yanxi still didn't believe him. She stared straight into his eyes, hoping to see what was wrong. However, Ye Junze looked into her eyes and then looked away.

Ye Yanxi thought that this might have something to do with the car outside the villa.

The two of them chatted for a while, when suddenly, there was the sound of brakes from outside. There was a car parked outside the door, and it seemed like the driver had pressed the horn a few times. Ye Ze immediately sat up, he was sure it was the Jiang family's car.

Ye Junze sat on the sofa with his body stretched taut, as if he was stiff and his face ugly.

Ye Yanxi walked to the window and looked outside. It was indeed the Jiang family's Yan Zhen's car.

”Dad, Madame Jiang is here again.” Ye Yanxi was extremely puzzled in her heart. Yan Zhen had clearly come at noon, why had she come again in the afternoon? What was she doing here?

Ye Yan Xi walked out of the door to open it, but Ye Junze suddenly stood up and quickly grabbed onto Ye Yan Xi's arm, making his heart jump and becoming nervous.

”Dad, what's wrong?” Now that she saw Ye Junze's expression, even Ye Yanxi felt that it was indescribable. He had a very cautious and cautious appearance.

”Xiao Xi, you can …” Ye Junze looked expectantly at Ye Yan Xi's face, his eyes pleading, ”Do you want to call me daddy a few more times?”

”Dad, what happened to you?” Ye Yan Xi was very depressed in her heart.

Ye Junze looked like an abandoned child as he pitifully looked at her, which made her feel both funny and sad.

”Xiao Xi, just shout a few more times.”

Seeing Ye Junze begging again, Ye Yanxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he repeated, ”Dad, dad …”

Every time he shouted, Ye Junze's mood improved a bit.

It was only when Ye Junze's mouth was wide open that she finally let Ye Yanxi open the door and walk out. Ye Junze followed closely behind her.

Yan Zhen stood quietly at the entrance. The fences on both sides were covered with green vines.

”Is it ready?” As Yan Zhen spoke to Ye Junze, Ye Yanxi stood to the side.

Ye Junze nodded. ”It's done.”

”Mhmm, then I'll take Lil 'Ye and leave.”

Although Ye Junze still felt reluctant to part with her, he forced himself to nod. ”Okay, wait a moment. Her bag is still in the living room. I'll go get it.”

Ye Junze trotted into the room.

Ye Yanxi looked at Ye Junze as she entered the door, and then she doubtfully said to the verification, ”My dad seems to be very strange today, I wonder what you and my dad said?”

”He just did what he had to do.” Yan Zhen smiled, her expression changing unpredictably.

”What should I do?”

”You'll know about this soon enough. The reason I came to find you was precisely for this matter.”

Yan Zhen's smile as well as Ye Junze's abnormal behavior gave Ye Yanxi a bad premonition. She had a bad premonition that this wasn't a good thing, so she was a bit resistant to her feelings.

”I think maybe you're going to tell me. I don't want to know.”

”You will.” Yan Zhen's gaze was filled with determination, causing Ye Yan Xi to be startled. She then said word by word, ”Moreover, you must know the truth of this matter.”

Very quickly, Ye Junze took out her bag.

Seeing Ye Junze come out, Ye Yanxi's heart suddenly felt a bit soft. He playfully pulled his arm, ”Dad, I finally made a difficult trip back. I haven't stayed enough at home. I want to continue accompanying you.”

These words caused Ye Junze's soothed emotions to churn again.

Ye Yanxi wanted to stay, but so did he. However, she had to face all of this in the end, so she could only ruthlessly say, ”Xiao Xi, just follow me. In the future, you'll have plenty of time to come back.”

Feeling Ye Junze's firm attitude, Ye Yanxi bit her lips. Even if she wanted to stay, it shouldn't be possible, right?

In the end, he could only take the bag from Ye Junze and leave.

By the time she got to the car, the driver had already opened the back door. He waited for her to get in, then closed the door.

The afternoon sun was very dazzling. Through the heavy and dark windows, Ye Yanxue could see that Ye Junze's eyes had been fixed on her the entire time. His eyes seemed as if they were filled with reluctance, and his emotions surged.

Afterwards, Yan Zhen also got on the car and instructed the driver to drive.

”Dad, don't worry. Nothing will happen to you. I'll be back soon.” Ye Yanxi waved towards Ye Junze, a dazzling smile on her face.

Ye Junze forced out a smile and waved back, ”Alright, daddy will wait for you to come back.”

After that, the car drove off, heading towards the unknown. Seeing Ye Junze's figure getting further and further away, the smile on Ye Yanxi's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a strong reluctance to part ways.
