Before Nalan died last time, he told her that Night Owl had never touched her. Does this mean... Actually, the two of them never had that kind of relationship
Bai Suye found that she really cared about this question. When she thought about it, she felt like there was a thorn in her heart, and she felt depressed and uncomfortable.
She did not allow herself to think any more, and got up from the bed and walked towards his desk, which was piled with various documents.
She looked at it casually, and suddenly remembered her mission - among these contracts, she wondered if there were contract materials prepared for the other two countries. If he had even prepared the contract, then the time for signing would only become more and more urgent.
However, he probably wouldn't put those important contracts in such a conspicuous place.
Bai Suye subconsciously opened the lower drawer a little, but the next moment, she hesitated to do anything else. If Ye Xiao knew that she came to his room and touched his things, he might...
Is he going to be sad again
After all, she couldn't bear to make him sad.
He took a deep breath and tried to close the drawer. But before closing it, his eyes paused.
A small photo suddenly appeared in her eyes.
She recognized it immediately; it was the photo she had seen in his wallet before, torn into pieces and then pieced together.
But…
In the photo, that face... is clearly her...
She is 18 years old.
Even though Nalan was very similar to her, she would not be mistaken about herself.
After so many years, Night Owl actually still keeps his own photo...
His heart was in turmoil for a moment. Bai Suye reached out and took the photo out of the drawer, staring at it intently. Thinking of ten years ago, his eyes couldn't help but become moist. In his chest, all kinds of emotions were rippling...
Night Owl…
She murmured the name emotionally in her heart and quietly put the small photo into her pocket.
———
An hour and a half later, the servant came upstairs to call her for dinner, and she left Night Owl's room.
The restaurant was filled with fragrance.
However, the Night Owl did not come back.
Bai Suye looked around in search of someone, and Ye Mu saw it all.
"Look at me, I was so busy that I forgot to call my son." Ye's mother took off her apron and handed it to the servant, while going to pick up the phone.
Bai Suye was helping to set the table in the restaurant, but was listening to the noise outside.
…
When Yemu called, Yexiao was busy and exhausted.
"Night Owl, come back for dinner in the evening."
Night Owl looked at the time and realized it was already this time.
At this time, has she had dinner? Eating alone in a hotel, I'm afraid she won't have much appetite, right
"Mom, I have an appointment tonight and can't go back for dinner. How about I accompany you tomorrow?"
"You have a date. Who do you have a date with? A boy or a girl?"
“…” Night Owl didn’t say anything.
Ye Mu asked, "Girl?"
"… Um."
"Okay, then I'll tell Susu that you have a date tonight. She and I will eat first and won't wait for you."
Night Owl was stunned.
The next moment, he immediately asked, "Mom, what did you just say? Who did you say it to?"
"Susu, Susu, come and have dinner with me tonight." Night Mother said this and raised her voice, "Susu, we don't have to wait for Night Owl for dinner, he has an appointment with someone else tonight..."
"Mom, I'll be right back!"
"Hey, didn't you date other girls?"
Where are the other girls? The other girls are at his house now!
"I'm hanging up. I'll be right back." Ye Xiao said only this and immediately hung up the phone.
Ye Mu shook her head in amusement. As expected, she had found her nemesis.
… … …
"Is Ye Xiao not coming back?" Bai Suye asked Ye's mother when she entered the restaurant. There was a hint of disappointment in her tone.
Ye Mu smiled, "Of course I will. I originally thought you were in the hotel, so I wanted to go and accompany you. But when I heard you were here with me, I didn't need your words, and I immediately clamored to come back."
Bai Suye listened and felt sweet in her heart.
Seeing her sweet smile, Ye Mu was relieved. These two young people obviously like each other, so why are they still not together
Less than half an hour later, a servant came in and said, "Madam, it's almost time to serve the food. The young master is back."
Ye Mu looked up at the time and said, "You're back so soon? You don't usually drive this fast. Are you really eager to go home today?"
Bai Suye just smiled and said, "Let me serve the dishes."
——
Night Owl walked in, took off his coat and handed it to the servant.
He looked around but didn't see the person he wanted to see. His brows were slightly furrowed. Could it be that his mother had lied to him
"I'm back." Ye's mother walked out of the restaurant, "Hurry up and wash your hands. Come in and eat. I've been waiting for you for a while. It's a rare opportunity to have a meal with me."
"Mom." Night Owl called out, wanting to ask something but not asking.
Ye Mu saw through his thoughts and joked, "You only care about Su Su, right?"
"…" Night Owl didn't answer, but only asked: "Is she not here?"
"Go in and take a look yourself."
Ye Mu pointed to the dining room. Ye Xiao understood and strode towards the dining room. In the dining room, she was concentrating on serving the dishes, holding a full bowl of hot soup in her hand.
Hearing the noise at the door, she looked up and saw him. She smiled and said, "You're back?"
Ye Xiao stared at her intently, watching her smile, and was in a trance for a long while.
He had imagined this scene before - when he came back from work, she would take care of everything and greet him at home with a sweet smile. He was the husband and she was the wife. If they could have a child, then everything would be just right...
He didn't ask for much.
However, these are also luxuries.
"What are you daydreaming about? Come in quickly." Ye's mother came in from behind and gently pushed him with her elbow.
Ye Xiao walked in slowly, looked at Bai Suyue deeply, and took the soup from her hand.
Bai Suye reminded, "Be careful of the heat."
Night Owl looked at her and put the soup on the table. She turned around to serve other dishes, and Night Owl helped her.
"Susu, let Ye Xiao do the rest. Sit down." Ye Mu pulled Bai Suye to sit down at the dining table and looked at Ye Xiao with a smile. "Ye Xiao doesn't usually do these things. He just wants to show off when you're here. Just let him show off."
Bai Suye also looked at Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao's face didn't show much expression at first, but when his eyes met hers, his eyes softened in an instant.
There was also a hint of unconscious tenderness in Bai Suye's eyes.
Her heart beat a little faster, so she turned her eyes away and said to Ye Mu, "I've tasted the food made by Ye Xiao before. He is actually quite skilled in these things."
