She spoke as if Si Xue was some kind of victim.
The old butler was as still as a mountain, and only said: "I will wait for Mr. Ye to wake up and tell him."
Seeing that he was adamant, Elena had no better solution. She couldn't just break in. This was Jing City, not an island.
She couldn't just force her way in.
Elena took a deep breath, pulled up the corners of her mouth and smiled to thank you: "Thank you for your trouble."
"Um."
The old butler stood there, not moving.
"Ms. Ina's car is outside. I won't send her off."
"!"
Elena was not unable to hear such an obvious order to leave. Her face sank, she suppressed her anger, smiled and nodded, turned back to the car, opened the door and got in.
"go back."
The black sedan drove back into the night, and soon its taillights disappeared at the intersection outside.
The old butler then said something to the guard at the door and turned around to go in.
…
Ye Maoshan was not asleep inside.
He changed into his pajamas and continued playing chess with Ye Keji.
Without Qiao Nian's help and guidance, Ye Maoshan and Ye Keji were in a very tense game of chess. They played for nearly two hours.
Ye Keji didn't dare to take it away, so he had to stay here patiently to accompany the old man.
Ye Maoshan thought for more than ten minutes before making his move.
Finally the chess game became clear.
Ye Keji was not polite. He captured the elephant and the chariot, firmly gaining the upper hand on the chessboard. He then smiled and said to the old man in front of him, "Mr. Ye, thank you for letting me."
"Hmph." Ye Maoshan realized that he had made a bad move, which laid the foundation for Ye Keji's victory. He retracted his hand, raised his head and snorted at him, but he was not really angry. He picked up the chess piece and said, "Come again." Ye Keji smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "No, it's already eight o'clock in the evening, it's time for you to rest. You have to stay healthy. I can't take the responsibility."
Ye Maoshan was annoyed: "Do I need you to teach me? No, let's play another round. I must beat you today!"
Ye Keji stood up quickly and refused to cooperate: "No, no, I'll come over tomorrow to play chess with you."
Just kidding, Mr. Ye has a stubborn temper and his seniority is there.
Ye Lan might just say a few words and that's it.
He is of the same generation as Ye Lan.
That young lady is not a pushover. You know, she didn't let Old Ye sleep at night and played chess with him. Ye Lan's decisive character can't help but be criticized.
As the most trusted branch of the Ye family, Ye Keji is not only capable and not selfish, but also has good foresight.
That was the first time Qiao Nian went back to the Ye family with Ye Wangchuan.
He is the one who welcomes Qiao Nian the most among the group of leaders in the Ye family.
He is very good at positioning himself.
Seeing that Ye Maoshan still didn't want to rest, Ye Keji advised him: "Mr. Ye, just listen to the doctor and the eldest lady and rest early. I will come to accompany you tomorrow."
"Eh." Ye Maoshan paused in setting up the chessboard, half of his face hidden in the shadows, looking like he was worried.
Ye Keji didn't have time to ask him.
The old butler knocked on the door and came in.
"Mr. Ye, the person is gone."
He glanced at Ye Keji who had not left yet, as if seeking Ye Maoshan's opinion, and looked over.
Ye Maoshan waved his hand: "He is one of us, you can speak."
Upon hearing this, Ye Keji straightened his back and became extremely alert, but he also felt a little headache about having discovered a secret.
"Yes." After receiving his approval, the old housekeeper finished what Elena asked him to say: "...She looks very anxious. She may come to see you tomorrow." (End of this chapter)
