Chapter 484

"Let's go, work's over," An Nuan didn't want to ask anymore.

Asking questions, Ye Jinghuai also wouldn't answer anyway.

She didn't even have confidence that she would eventually know who exactly Ye Jinghuai was and what huge secret he was hiding.

She now instead hoped to live in the moment.

As long as Ye Jinghuai didn't kill her and what he did didn't conflict with her interests,

She could turn a blind eye to whatever he wanted to do.

Because of love, she gave Ye Jinghuai the lowest baseline.

The two stood up from the sofa together.

An Nuan walked in front.

Ye Jinghuai went to hold An Nuan's hand.

An Nuan's hand shook slightly as she avoided it.

Ye Jinghuai pursed his lips.

The smile on his face carried some helplessness.

He followed behind An Nuan.

An Nuan looked carefree on the surface, but he could absolutely feel that she was unhappy.

The two sat in Hu Feng's sedan.

"How's An Xiao?" An Nuan asked him.

"Nothing much, just minor abrasions. She already got medication and the doctor said she'd heal by tomorrow," he replied matter-of-factly.

"Oh," An Nuan responded.

Hu Feng looked at the two people in the backseat through the rearview mirror.

No matter how he saw it, it seemed like they had a fight.

Just now after sending An Xiao to the hospital, he didn't go to An Nuan's office because he didn't want to disturb them.

He really didn't understand how the two could have disagreed on something.

Hu Feng drove carefully.

Anyway, he didn't understand matters of the heart.

The sedan soon arrived at the villa.

The entire ride, An Nuan and Ye Jinghuai truly did not communicate much.

It made Hu Feng not even dare to breathe loudly the whole way.

Previously he still thought it was cute how affectionate Mr. Ye and Madam were, and now he kind of missed that feeling. It was definitely better than their current cold war.

It was the same when getting out of the car.

Usually when Mr. Ye came home, he would definitely open the car door for Madam.

This time Madam opened the door herself and directly got out.

Ye Jinghuai followed behind her, and the two walked into the villa together.

Hu Feng sat in the driver's seat watching their silhouettes.

He didn't know why,

But he felt that if one day Madam left Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye would...not be able to carry on living.

Hu Feng retracted his gaze and drove the car away.

Inside the villa foyer.

An Nuan had just walked in to see Yun Yu Qing sitting on the sofa with Ye Jingjing.

Zhong Shu was next to them taking care of things. Seeing them come back, he hurriedly came up, "Young Master, Madam, you two came back together."

Ye Jinghuai nodded slightly.

He looked towards Yun Yu Qing and them.

An Nuan also looked at them this way.

Regarding mother-in-law Yun Yu Qing, An Nuan truly liked her very much, but this younger sister-in-law of hers...An Nuan walked over without changing her expression, appearing still very enthusiastic, "Mom, you and sister came over without letting me know. I'm always working overtime usually that if not for Jinghuai, I wouldn't be back until after 9."

"It's fine, work comes first. We didn't have anything going on anyway, so we didn't call to rush you," Yun Yu Qing said gently.

She had An Nuan sit in the spot next to her before speaking to Ye Jinghuai, "When did you come back? You came back and didn't let me know either!" Her tone was clearly not great.

The difference from how she treated An Nuan was like heaven and earth.

Ye Jinghuai very calmly sat on a sofa to the side, "I only just got back to pick up An Nuan after work. Mom, did something happen that you came over suddenly?"

So he directly changed the topic.

Yun Yu Qing was also not someone who liked making trouble over things, so she just went along with Ye Jinghuai's words, "It's like this - your dad and I have our wedding anniversary trip coming up in a couple days. I was going to have Jingjing stay home originally, but your sister-in-law's mom got sick recently so she has to go back and take care for a few days. Your older brother will go with her too. At home there's only your second brother left, and you also know he's a workaholic. Leaving Jingjing alone at home, I wouldn't feel assured, so Jingjing took the initiative to suggest coming over to stay with you guys for a couple days."

An Nuan just listened quietly.

She couldn't help but glance over at Ye Jingjing as well.

She truly didn't know what tricks this vixen was trying to play now.

In any case, it was definitely no good.

"Now that you're back, it works out perfectly. I was originally afraid I would be bothering Nuan Nuan. Now that you're back I'll feel assured leaving Jingjing to you," Yun Yu Qing said very naturally.

Before Ye Jinghuai could agree.

Ye Jingjing quickly said, "I'll just impose on brother and sister-in-law then."

She put on a delicate and weak appearance that would make anyone who rejected her seem excessively cruel.

Ye Jinghuai turned to glance at An Nuan.

An Nuan already had misgivings towards Ye Jingjing to begin with. And now he intentionally put her in the position to make this decision!

Clearly, to avoid offending her mother-in-law she had no choice but to agree.

While Ye Jinghuai definitely also did not want to refuse, but to show respect, he still asked for her opinion. Calling it respect - it was just leaving himself a way out, so she wouldn't blame him for Ye Jingjing's arrival since she was the one who agreed out loud after all.

An Nuan truly felt she was no match for Ye Jinghuai.

If they were in a palace drama, Ye Jinghuai would definitely be the last one standing.

An Nuan felt Yun Yu Qing's gaze and quickly smiled, "Mom you're being too courteous saying things like being a bother or not. We're all family. If sister wants to come then of course she's welcome without needing to feel reserved."

"Now that Nuan Nuan puts it that way, then I won't stand on ceremony either. Family should be casual," Yun Yu Qing laughed and said, "Your dad and I will probably be on our trip for half a month. After we get back I'll bring Jingjing home. Please take care of her these two weeks."

"Mom, Jingjing isn't a child. What burden could she possibly be to me? With her here, I'll actually have more company so I won't be as bored. Jinghuai is probably going to Jiang City these next couple days too, so Jingjing can just accompany me," An Nuan appeared very happy.

But her words were clearly provoking.

Ye Jingjing wasn't a child either and didn't need to be treated like one.

Also, Ye Jingjing coming over wouldn't be to keep her company, but to give her company.

If Ye Jingjing tried anything, the fault would be Ye Jingjing's alone.

Hearing An Nuan say this, Yun Yu Qing also couldn't help laughing, "What Nuan Nuan says makes sense too. Jingjing is the same age as you after all. I've still been treating her like a child. That was me spoiling her too much."

An Nuan didn't chime in agreement, as that might make Yun Yu Qing feel uncomfortable in her heart. After all, Ye Jingjing was still the apple of Yun Yu Qing's eye. Saying too much would make Yun Yu Qing feel unsettled.

So she just smiled without commenting, tacitly agreeing to Yun Yu Qing's words.

"I'll be staying for a week this time back," Ye Jinghuai stated directly.

An Nuan looked back at Ye Jinghuai.

She had assumed all this while that he was back just for his plans.

Thinking about it, it had been about that long these couple days.

Ye Jinghuai said plainly, "I still have about half a month until I officially transfer back, so I need to come back early and hand off work. It'll probably take about a week."
