Chapter 542: Chapter 0542: Su Guyan and Ye Xunhuan Meet
In the early morning, the bright sunlight spilled from the eastern horizon, dispersing the lingering, decadent atmosphere of the dark.
Qiu Ruoxi got up early as usual, with nothing out of the ordinary.
To her, the events of last night seemed nothing more than a dream.
But was it really a dream?
Could it truly be forgotten?
Only Qiu Ruoxi herself could know.
At this moment Qiu Ruoxi, wearing an apron like a dutiful wife, was making breakfast!
When Ye Xunhuan walked out of the bedroom into the living room and saw Qiu Ruoxi’s attire, he was slightly taken aback.
Why had this woman started making breakfast?
That’s right, where was Wang’s mother?
Because of the unusual circumstances yesterday, Ye Xunhuan had forgotten about Wang’s mother. Now, seeing Qiu Ruoxi’s appearance, he suddenly remembered Wang’s mother!
It seemed he hadn’t seen her yesterday!
The moment Qiu Ruoxi walked out of the kitchen with breakfast, she immediately saw Ye Xunhuan, and her heart leapt with joy.
He hadn’t left; he had stayed.
Upon waking up this morning, Qiu Ruoxi felt extremely anxious, her heart filled with nervousness and unease, worried that Ye Xunhuan would still leave.
Now seeing that Ye Xunhuan hadn’t left but had stayed here filled her heart with joy!
Even she didn’t know why seeing that Ye Xunhuan hadn’t left made her so happy.
Although she felt a slight thrill in her heart, Qiu Ruoxi maintained her composure as usual, saying indifferently, "Come eat breakfast!"
Observing Qiu Ruoxi in this state, Ye Xunhuan felt a warmth in his heart; this was what a wife, a woman should be like—only that voice...
If it were a usual day, Ye Xunhuan would definitely have teased Qiu Ruoxi here, but he didn’t this time and instead asked softly, "Where is Wang’s mother?"
"Wang’s mother’s blood pressure was high, and she fainted from fright yesterday. Xia Jiu took her to the hospital," said Qiu Ruoxi without looking at Ye Xunhuan, her head lowered. "After breakfast, you go see Wang’s mother at the hospital; I’ll go to work!"
Hearing Qiu Ruoxi say this, Ye Xunhuan’s face showed a dawning comprehension, no wonder he hadn’t seen Wang’s mother yesterday!
Qiu Ruoxi was not a typical rich young lady, nor was she a woman untouched by hardships.
She was truly the kind of wife men dream of, fit for the living room and the kitchen!
The breakfast Qiu Ruoxi prepared was quite lavish, featuring poached eggs, ham, and other high-protein foods.
The two sat at the dining table, eating their breakfast in silence, which made the atmosphere slightly oppressive.
Thus, breakfast slowly came to an end in this oppressive atmosphere!
After breakfast, Qiu Ruoxi left the villa for work, not minding Ye Xunhuan, who also said nothing about it.
After Qiu Ruoxi had left, Ye Xunhuan exhaled a long breath, leaned back in his chair, and lit himself a cigarette to smoke.
Ye Xunhuan could understand Qiu Ruoxi’s disregard, considering the shocking nature of last night’s events; even though Qiu Ruoxi had asked him to stay, a night had passed.
But Qiu Ruoxi surely hadn’t fully processed it yet.
Ye Xunhuan could understand this, and also knew that the matter was now behind them.
After smoking a cigarette, Ye Xunhuan too left the villa.
Upon leaving the villa, Ye Xunhuan went to the hospital as Qiu Ruoxi had instructed to see Wang’s mother.
In the hospital, Xiao Jiu was having Ma Yingjun accompany Wang’s mother.
Upon seeing Ye Xunhuan, Ma Yingjun immediately greeted him respectfully as "Brother Xunhuan."
Ye Xunhuan gave a faint smile in response.
Ma Yingjun left the hospital room sensibly because of Ye Xunhuan’s arrival.
Although Wang’s mother was accompanied by Ma Yingjun at the hospital, she still seemed very bored.
When she saw Ye Xunhuan coming over, her face immediately brightened up. She exchanged pleasantries warmly with Ye Xunhuan and inevitably asked about the events of the previous night.
However, Ye Xunhuan brushed off her inquiries with the same story he had told Wang’s mother before, claiming that the police had arrived and caught everyone involved.
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan and Ma Yingjun’s stories coincided, both giving a vague official version!
Wang’s mother had no reason to suspect anything, after all, she had fainted during the violent, bloody scene and did not witness it.
This, admittedly, was a relief for Ye Xunhuan.
Wang’s mother did not want to stay in the hospital, claiming she was not seriously hurt and wanted to be discharged. Even the doctor said that she had only been frightened, plus her high blood pressure caused her to faint, and that a few days of rest would suffice.
But Ye Xunhuan did not agree and suggested she stay in the hospital for observation.
This time, Wang’s mother could not argue with Ye Xunhuan and had to stay in the hospital.
After staying with Wang’s mother for a while, Ye Xunhuan was urged by her to go to work.
As he left the hospital, Ye Xunhuan told Ma Yingjun to take good care of Wang’s mother, then left.
After leaving the hospital, Ye Xunhuan headed straight to the Huangtu Group.
Upon arriving at the Huangtu Group, Ye Xunhuan proceeded to his office as usual.
However, just as he entered the grand lobby of the Huangtu Group, Ye Xunhuan saw a familiar figure.
On seeing this familiar figure, Ye Xunhuan paused slightly.
Why is she here?
The person Ye Xunhuan saw was none other than Gu Yan.
Gu Yan had been calling Ye Xunhuan all night without any rest; every call filled with hope ended in disappointment.
It was always that mechanical, cold voice!
This made Gu Yan anxious and unable to settle down.
As soon as dawn broke, she rushed to the Huangtu Group, hoping to find Ye Xunhuan there. She also asked A Li to continue searching for Ye Xunhuan and used her own connections to gather information, incessantly calling him.
Without news of Ye Xunhuan for even a moment, it seemed as if all these efforts would never cease.
Although Gu Yan came to the Huangtu Group to possibly meet Ye Xunhuan, she was also continuously dialing his number on her phone. It can be said that for Ye Xunhuan, she, Gu Yan, was almost in a state of frenzy!
She was virtually going crazy!
For so many years, her heart had been intertwined with thoughts of Ye Xunhuan, always searching for him. Now that she had finally met him, were they destined to be separated by life and death?
She could not accept this!
She became frantic, searching desperately for Ye Xunhuan, trying to find any piece of information about him.
Because of a sleepless night, the tense Gu Yan’s delicate face was as pale as paper, her eyes filled with blood vessels, showing extreme fatigue.
But her face still displayed undiminished concern, anxiety, and impatience.
Ye Xunhuan saw all these expressions on Gu Yan’s face, and he seemed to guess why she looked this way, which filled him with a multitude of complex feelings!
Ye Xunhuan saw Gu Yan, and Gu Yan saw Ye Xunhuan.
On seeing Ye Xunhuan, the heart that Gu Yan had been holding in her throat slowly returned to her stomach, and the nervous, worried, and anxious expression on her face slowly turned into a smile as radiant as a blooming flower!
The two of them just looked at each other like that.
