Chapter 255: Chapter 0255 Let’s Go Watch a Movie Together
Speaking, the middle-aged man and the woman took their seats without waiting for Ye Xunhuan to open his mouth.
Mei Hanqing noticed and immediately frowned, wondering what was up with these two. There were plenty of open seats, so why insist on sitting at their table?
Ye Xunhuan, however, remained calm and showed no surprise.
This was because the woman was Wu Mei, and the middle-aged man next to her was definitely from the National Security Bureau.
Just as Mei Hanqing was about to speak, Ye Xunhuan’s voice rose, "If I didn’t allow you to sit here, would you have sat somewhere else?"
The middle-aged man chuckled lightly, "Mr. Ye, let me introduce myself. I am Xie Guangyi. I apologize for the intrusion and any offense it may have caused. I hope you can forgive me!"
"This lady needs no introduction. You already know her, right?"
Ye Xunhuan picked up his glass and gently sipped his wine. "Alright, tell me, what brings you here?"
"Mr. Ye, there was some presumption in our previous actions. I hope you won’t hold it against Wu Mei. If we have offended, I apologize on her behalf," Xie Guangyi said, with a harmlessly smiling face.
"I haven’t taken it personally. If I had, you would know what she would be like now," Ye Xunhuan replied coolly.
"Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Ye," said Xie Guangyi very politely. "But Mr. Ye ..."
"What now, you want to interrogate me?" Ye Xunhuan’s brows rose slightly, and a hint of menace started to appear in his eyes.
Seeing this, Xie Guangyi hurriedly said, "Not at all, Mr. Ye, but as you know, your existence..."
"Rest assured, I’ll keep to myself," Ye Xunhuan interrupted again. "As long as no one troubles me, I won’t do what you all are worried about. You can be at ease about that!"
"As for that matter, someone wanted to die. How could I have let him live?"
"Furthermore, didn’t I also help you all significantly in removing a nuisance for the people?" Ye Xunhuan said unhurriedly.
Xie Guangyi wanted to say more, but before he could open his mouth, Ye Xunhuan cut him off, "Enough, I’m not in the mood for idle chat today. Please leave!"
Xie Guangyi wanted to add something else, but upon seeing Ye Xunhuan’s increasingly cold expression, he had to swallow back his words.
"Well then, I shall visit you another day, Mr. Ye. I won’t disturb you further today!"
Saying this, Xie Guangyi stood up, ready to leave.
Just then, as if Ye Xunhuan had suddenly remembered something, he spoke abruptly, "The Koga Clan is in this city!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Xie Guangyi shuddered and then nodded at Ye Xunhuan, "Thank you for the information, Mr. Ye!"
With that, Xie Guangyi didn’t linger any longer and swiftly left with Wu Mei.
Once outside the restaurant, an utterly puzzled Wu Mei asked Xie Guangyi, "Uncle Xie, why do you treat him with so much respect? Just because he is the Qin family’s nephew, is Qin..."
"Mei’er, you don’t understand," Xie Guangyi shook his head and sighed. "You shouldn’t meddle in his affairs anymore, don’t ask!"
"But..."
"I know what you are worried about. You heard what he just said, He will keep to himself," Xie Guangyi whispered. "Now you go find out why people from the Koga Sect have suddenly appeared in Jiangzhong City and see what they are up to!"
"Uncle Xie, do you really believe what he said?"
"If it were anyone else, I might not believe it. But for him, I trust him completely," Xie Guangyi stated emphatically. "Come on, let’s go!"
Saying this, Xie Guangyi got into the car, and Wu Mei, casting one last unwilling glance at the restaurant where Ye Xunhuan sat, departed.
"Who are these people?" Mei Hanqing asked, unable to restrain herself, as she watched the two leave through the window.
Ye Xunhuan smiled, but did not answer.
Just then, Ye Xunhuan’s phone suddenly rang.
He took out his phone and looked at the caller ID, a slow smile forming on his lips. Qiu Ruoxi was actually calling him this early—it was quite a rare occurrence.
"Hello..."
"Ye Xunhuan, where are you messing around now? I order you to come back to me immediately in thirty minutes."
"You want me to come back just because you say so? Wouldn’t that make me lose face?" Ye Xunhuan pursed his lips and said, "How about you plead with me, then I might consider coming back!"
"Cut the nonsense, I’m warning you, if you don’t come back within thirty minutes, you’ll bear the consequences," Qiu Ruoxi said sternly.
As her words ended, Qiu Ruoxi didn’t give Ye Xunhuan a chance to speak and directly hung up the phone.
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Ye Xunhuan was speechless inside, this woman...
Seeing Ye Xunhuan put down his phone, Mei Hanqing asked softly, "Minister Tang?"
"No." Ye Xunhuan laughed and said, "It’s my wife!"
"Your... your wife?" Mei Hanqing’s eyes widened in shock: "Then... Miss Tang..."
"You didn’t think she is my wife, did you?" Ye Xunhuan shook his head, "She is not my wife, my wife is someone else!"
"Then you and Miss Tang..."
"What do you think?"
"You... you..." Mei Hanqing looked at Ye Xunhuan with an incredulous face.
"It’s not what you think, my relationship with Xiao Rourou is as pure as spring water," Ye Xunhuan said lightly, "Anyway, I have to go now, or if my tigress at home starts her temper, I might end up kneeling on cacti tonight!"
With that, Ye Xunhuan stood up right away, "By the way, you’ll have to take a cab back alone later!"
With those words, Ye Xunhuan walked towards the exit of the restaurant.
"Could he... could he be a kept man?"
Having not walked more than two steps, Ye Xunhuan stumbled upon hearing Mei Hanqing’s words, almost falling to the ground.
Do I look like a kept man?
Is there any kept man as handsome and capable as me?
"Indeed, I’m a kept man, Minister Mei, feel free to keep me!" Ye Xunhuan turned around and said to Mei Hanqing.
Hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Mei Hanqing’s face instantly blushed.
After leaving the small restaurant, Ye Xunhuan was filled with confusion. Why was Qiu Ruoxi so anxious for him to return?
Could something have happened?
When Ye Xunhuan drove back to the Ting Xiang Shui Xie Villa, he saw Qiu Ruoxi sitting in the living room, watching TV.
"Wife, why did you call me back?"
"Husband, you’re back!" Qiu Ruoxi’s face immediately showed a sweet smile, then she quickly walked towards Ye Xunhuan, hugged his arm lovingly, and said, "Let’s go to the cinema together!"
