The phone kept vibrating, and after a while, Ye Wen woke up from the daze and pressed the connect button.
"Hello, Mom."
There was silence on the phone.
Ye Wen was a little uneasy by the silence: "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
After a while, Xia Jin's voice finally came from the phone: "Mom is fine, I haven't seen you calling for a long time..."
Ye Wen's long eyelashes drooped slightly, hiding the emotion in his eyes, and said, "I've been a little busy at work recently... Is the money I sent you enough?"
"It's enough." Xia Jin paused, "I don't need any money right now, so take care of yourself and stop begging him for this."
This "he" naturally refers to Ye Yuannian. Ye Wen's head hurt a little, he raised his hand and pressed his forehead, and said softly: "Well, I know, I didn't ask for the money from him."
There was another silence, and there seemed to be not much to say between mother and daughter.
"Shall I go over to see you?" Xia Jin suddenly asked.
"!!!"
Ye Wen was shocked, and hurriedly said: "You are not in good health, don't run around, I am fine, I can eat and sleep, I will go back to see you when I have time later."
With her temper, if she knew that Ye Yuannian had tricked her into marrying a blind man, she wouldn't be able to splatter blood.
Xia Jin didn't insist either: "Then tell me before you come back."
"Well, you should pay more attention to your body."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Wen let out a sigh of relief.
Before he finished breathing, there was a sudden knock on the door.
She shook her hand, and the phone fell to the ground with a "crack".
There is a carpet in the living room, and it would not be a big problem if the phone fell, but... During the fall, it hit the corner of the coffee table, and the screen bloomed again.
Ye Wen: "..."
Her mobile phone is really full of disasters.
Ye Wen numbly picked up the phone and said "Come in".
The door was pushed open, Zhong Fu appeared at the door, and said to her: "Madam, Mr. Xie please go over."
Ye Wen got up and followed Zhong Fu back to the conference room. The high-level executives had basically dispersed. Xie Shuo was standing in front of the conference table, talking to the middle-aged man whom he called "Uncle Zhang" earlier.
Ye Wen walked to Xie Shuo's side, and consciously raised his arms to hold him, the fingertips felt silky.
The middle-aged man cast his gaze at her, looked at her indistinctly, and smiled.
Ye Wen replied with a polite smile. She had actually heard of the middle-aged man in front of her. He was one of the deputy directors of Junming Group. His name was Zhang Junfeng. It was said that he had a very good relationship with Xie Baiyan and was considered a family friend.
After saying a few words, Zhang Junfeng also left.
The sun had already set in the west, and the twilight was dark outside the towering tall buildings.
Ye Wen helped Xie Shuo out of the company, and the two got into the car and rushed back to the hospital.
The atmosphere in the car was gloomy, and Ye Wen's mentality was better than when he came here, and he was no longer so nervous, but when he turned his head to see Xie Shuo's cold and indifferent face, he was still a little apprehensive, and he didn't dare to lean on him like usual Run amok.
She sat quietly, looking at her nose, nose, and heart. Her white and slender legs were slanted together, which was very in line with the posture that a vase should have.
However, just as she was trying to let herself go, an inappropriate voice suddenly sounded in the silence—
"Cuckoo..."
— from her belly.
Ye Wen: "..."
Dazed for a second, Ye Wen hurriedly covered his stomach.
It's a pity that Xie Shuo had already heard it, turned his face to the side, and a pair of deep eyes were facing her.
Ye Wen's face turned hot, he was extremely embarrassed - why is she always embarrassing in front of him
In fact, she couldn't be blamed for this. She didn't eat much at noon, and then went back and forth with him in the afternoon. She was very nervous and her stomach was already empty.
"What time is it?" Xie Shuo asked suddenly.
Ye Wen looked at the time: "It's past six o'clock."
Xie Shuo frowned, and said to the front, "Zhong Fu, find a place to eat first."
Ye Wen hurriedly stopped him in a low voice: "Let's go to the hospital first, I'm not—"
Before the word "very hungry" came out, my stomach grumbled again.
Ye Wen: "..."
Ye Wen resolutely closed his mouth.
Soon, Zhong Fu booked a private room in a nearby high-end restaurant.
The warm yellow wall lamp is exquisite and elegant, like a moonlight floating.
Ye Wen helped Xie Shuo to sit down at the dining table, thinking, last time he tortured him for so long and even threatened him with "dark cooking" but he couldn't get him to come out for a meal with him, today it happened by accident .
It's just... the atmosphere is not charming at all, and it doesn't have the mood she wants.
Xie Baiyan was still lying in the hospital, so Ye Wen naturally couldn't take this as a romantic date, and after serving Xie Shuo's food as usual, he buried his head and started eating quickly.
Probably aware that she was in a hurry, Xie Shuo suddenly said in a low voice, "There's no news from the hospital, it's just that it's all right, don't be in a hurry."
Ye Wen raised his head, the light in the box was soft, covering the man's stern face, dizzying a bit of tenderness.
An inexplicable warmth welled up in her heart, she responded lightly, lowered her head, and slowed down her movements.
—In this way, it seems that there is a little atmosphere again.
After eating, the two rushed back to the hospital. Xie Baiyan had come to his senses and seemed to be in good condition.
Because he was worried about the company, Xie Baiyan insisted on leaving the hospital tomorrow, which was unanimously opposed by everyone.
"I heard from Xiao Ran that you went to the company this afternoon?" Xie Baiyan sat up leaning on the pillow and looked at Xie Shuo.
Xie Shuo made a "hmm" sound, and said calmly, "I've already dealt with Wu Wenqi's matter."
Xie Baiyan coughed twice: "Since you can handle it, let Xiaoran tell you about Ju's development project..." After a pause, he turned to Ye Wen, "Stay here and chat with me."
Ye Wen:? ?
What day am I chatting with you
Ye Wen was confused and a little nervous, but she couldn't refuse and could only keep smiling. Who told her to set up a character set of a good wife, a loving mother, and a filial daughter-in-law!
When they were young, Xie Shuo and Xie Yuran went outside to discuss business matters, only Ye Wen and Xie Baiyan were left in the ward,
Ye Wen sat by the bed, tucked the quilt up for Xie Baiyan gently and meticulously, and waited for him to speak.
Xie Baiyan looked at her, and said softly: "During these days, Ah Shuo's condition is much better than before, thank you for your hard work."
It came with such a high hat, Ye Wen was flattered and smiled slightly: "You are serious, he and I are husband and wife, we should take care of him, not to mention hard work."
Heart: It's really hard work, this young master is not usually difficult to serve.
Xie Baiyan leaned on the pillow, observed her expression, and suddenly said: "Wan Wan, you are a smart girl."
Ye Wen was a little confused when he heard that: ... It's okay, my brain is not bad.
"The current situation of the Xie family, you should also be clear in your heart. If Ah Shuo continues to be depressed like this, once I can't hold on, the Xie family can only be handed over to Xiaoran, or handed over to outsiders. What does the old man mean? , no matter which one is his grandson, as long as the family business remains intact, it doesn't matter whoever hands it over to, but I'm just such a son, I really can't be cruel... "
Xie Baiyan sighed.
"As for Xiaoran, although he was raised under my lap, he was separated by a layer. This child was well-behaved and sensible when he was young, but his temperament has changed a lot when he grows up. Especially in the past few years when he is away all the time, even I can't figure it out. It would be fine if he didn't hide any evil intentions, just in case..."
In case of anything, it goes without saying.
Even Ye Wen, an outsider, became suspicious of Xie Yuran, let alone Xie Baiyan.
"You are Ah Shuo's wife, so you must wish him well, so please spend more time and help him."
Ye Wen didn't expect that he would suddenly say such heartfelt words to himself, and entrust him with a heavy responsibility. His mood was a little complicated, so he thought about it and asked, "Do you want him to return to the company?"
Xie Baiyan shook his head: "With his current state, it's really too much to force him to return to his original position. As long as he can pull himself together and take care of things, it's fine. In this way, if something happens, he can keep himself."
Seeing Xie Baiyan's white hair on the sideburns and the worried expression on his face, Ye Wen couldn't help but sigh with emotion, after all, it was his own father who really took great pains for his son, why didn't she have such a good life
But what he said is indeed true, she and Xie Shuo are husband and wife, if something happens to Xie Shuo, her good days will come to an end.
"Don't worry too much, I will explain him well, besides—" Ye Wen gave a relieved smile, "Didn't you also arrange for him to meet a prestigious medical professor on the 15th of this month? Say Maybe it can be cured this time?"
When she smiled, her eyes were clear and starry, Xie Baiyan seemed to be infected, and a smile appeared on her face.
When he chose this daughter-in-law back then, he didn't make mistakes.
----
That night, Ye Wen and Xie Shuo did not stay in the hospital to accompany them, but went back to Xie's house.
It was past ten o'clock when we got home. As soon as we entered the bedroom, Xie Shuo took off his suit jacket. The metal cufflinks reflected the bright light under the light.
Ye Wen stretched out his hand to take it, looked at his cold face, and thought about his appearance during the day when the weather scene was fully open, he was still a little apprehensive.
This man became serious, and he was simply not close to strangers.
I don't know where she got the courage to cling to him and do anything wrong.
After taking off his suit, Xie Shuo sat down on the sofa, leaned back, and raised his hands to support his forehead, looking very tired.
Ye Wen stood beside him for a while, and asked softly, "Do you want to take a bath?"
Xie Shuo pinched his eyebrows, closed his eyes for a moment, and then got up.
Ye Wen went to the cloakroom to get his underwear and pajamas for him, and followed him into the bathroom, but probably because of his restlessness, he accidentally bumped into his back.
Through a layer of shirt fabric, her face was in close contact with his back, and the familiar cold smell of the man hit her nostrils, like the first snow in winter.
Her hand instinctively grabbed the hem of his waist, and this gesture seemed to hug him from behind.
"..."
Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly let go: "I'm sorry."
Xie Shuo stopped, turned around, and frowned, always felt that it was a little strange that she was so peaceful today, and she was about to change her usual routine. At this time, instead of apologizing, she would probably distort the facts righteously and take the opportunity to act like a baby with him nonsense.
Seeing his gloomy face and frowning, Ye Wen's heart skipped a beat: I'm not going to get angry right now
Fortunately, he couldn't see, and he probably couldn't find the direction when he got angry. Ye Wen held his breath, walked quickly to the bathtub with small steps, poured bath water for him, and put the clothes aside.
Listening to the noise in the darkness, Xie Shuo frowned more deeply.
When Ye Wen settled down and got up again, Xie Shuo was already loosening the bow tie in front of him.
The man raised his chin slightly, pulled his slender fingers left and right, his movements were neat, and his Adam's apple was obvious on his neck.
Ye Wen's heart skipped a beat involuntarily.
Every time he loosens his tie, he has a particularly lustful aura, which makes people blush and feel hot, and can't move their eyes.
Ye Wen stared at it for two seconds, caught a glimpse of the watch on his wrist, and asked, "Do you want to take off your watch?"
Xie Shuo paused, took off his watch, and handed it to her.
Ye Wen took it, the temperature of his wrist still remained on the watch, she burned her fingertips, forcibly retracted her gaze, and walked out quickly.
After coming out, Ye Wen put the watch back to its original place, walked to the sofa and sat down, facing the floor-to-ceiling windows, imitating Xie Shuo's usual appearance, and was in a daze.
The night is getting darker, outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the shadows of the distant mountains are continuous, and the lights are dotted like stars.
…
----
In the darkness, the lights flickered on.
Xie Yuran returned to the apartment, opened the door and entered the room, looking tired.
He changed his shoes at the entrance, and before he entered the living room, he received a call.
Looking at the caller ID on the screen, his eyes darkened, he paused for a moment, and clicked to connect.
On the other end of the phone, a drunken female voice came with a smile: "I thought you had blocked me and wouldn't answer my calls anymore..."
Xie Yuran's tone was cold and firm: "What's the matter?"
"I miss you, can you come with me tonight?"
The female voice added a touch of coquettishness, as if whispering in the ear, Xie Yuran's face suddenly turned cold, and he was about to hang up the phone.
The other party obviously guessed his intention, and suddenly raised his voice: "Xie Yuran, you dare to try to hang up on me again!"
With a cold face, Xie Yuran paused briefly.
The voice on the other end dropped again, still drunk: "I found something related to your elder brother's car accident, are you sure you can't come and listen?"
Xie Yuran raised his eyelashes and held the phone tightly with his fingertips.
"I'll give you an hour. If you don't show up in front of me after an hour, you will be at your own risk."
After finishing speaking, the other end simply hung up.
Xie Yuran stared at the phone screen, raised his eyebrows for a long while, then suddenly tore off the tie in front of him, threw it casually, and pulled two shirt buttons along the way, the gentleness of the day faded from his whole body, his collarbone was half exposed, his neckline was messy, and his loose hair was lightly tied On the forehead, there was a hostility between the eyebrows and eyes.
The slender shadow is reflected on the wall, the curtains in the living room are floating, and the night is cold and breezy.
He turned around, strode out the door, and his figure disappeared into the vast night.
…
-----
The bathroom door opened, Ye Wen grabbed his freshly dried hair and came out, only to find that Xie Shuo hadn't gone to bed yet, standing alone by the window.
The man was dressed in a black nightgown, with a slender figure, half of his face was under the lamp, half of his face was shrouded in shadow, and there was no expression on his face.
From far away, he could feel the cold breath on his body, Ye Wen approached lightly, and asked cautiously, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
Xie Shuo didn't respond, and still stood silently.
Ye Wen asked again: "Can't sleep?"
The voice was played very softly, for fear of offending him.
Xie Shuo didn't move, but finally opened his mouth, and said four words indifferently: "Go to sleep first."
Ye Wen: ... You look like this, if I can fall asleep, my psychological quality will be very strong.
Ye Wen looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and asked again: "Are you still going to the company tomorrow?"
Xie Shuo didn't answer, his face was serious, he didn't know what he was thinking.
Ye Wen pursed his lips, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and said softly: "My father is not in good health now, if you can go back to the company to help him, I think it will be very good..."
Hearing this, Xie Shuo finally had a reaction, and turned his face towards her, his eyes were deep and dull.
Ye Wen met his unfathomable eyes, and became more and more anxious, feeling that the air was a lot more stuffy.
Thinking of Xie Baiyan's entrustment before the hospital bed, she stepped forward boldly, slender fingers climbed onto his arm, and continued: "If you find it inconvenient, you can ask Zhong Fu to give you the document like today, and I will read it to you." listen… "
She paused for a moment and glanced at him, the ink in the man's eyes became darker.
"The property of the Xie family cannot fall into the hands of outsiders." Ye Wen gritted his teeth and said the last sentence.
Xie Shuo smelled the scent of body wash on her body, and after a long silence, he took her hand away: "You don't need to worry about these things, go to bed early."
... Here it is again.
Ye Wen was very depressed, and whispered: "If only I could not worry..."
Although his voice was low, Xie Shuo could hear clearly. He actually knew what she was worried about. He was just afraid that he would not be able to inherit the family business.
She married him for profit, not for feelings.
A trace of ridicule flashed across Xie Shuo's heart, and he turned and walked towards the bed.
Ye Wen couldn't figure out his thoughts and followed him.
Going to bed and lying down, Ye Wen looked at him sideways, and wanted to say something, but it was obvious that he had closed his eyes, his expression was cold, so he could only swallow it back, and raised his hand to turn off the light.
The room was plunged into darkness, but she didn't feel sleepy for a long time, and her thoughts were chaotic.
