Chapter 628: Chapter 0628: Who is Coming?
Qiu Ruoxi was sitting at the dining table, her pretty face tense and covered in frost, her charming phoenix eyes filled with sharpness, like a knife flickering cold light.
After Ye Xunhuan walked up to the dining table, a smile immediately appeared on his face, "Wife, are you angry?"
Qiu Ruoxi didn’t pay any attention to Ye Xunhuan and instead buried her head in eating her meal after Ye Xunhuan came over, completely ignoring him.
Seeing this, Ye Xunhuan felt an even stronger bitterness in his heart, this time Olivia had really helped him to anger this woman.
Causing Qiu Ruoxi to fall back into her ice queen mode once again!
Wang Ma wanted to say a few words to help Ye Xunhuan from the side, but she had no idea what had happened, feeling powerless despite her willingness!
"Wife, I know no matter how I explain it, you won’t believe me!" Ye Xunhuan said earnestly, "But if there is something bothering you or making you uncomfortable, don’t hold it in, just let it out. I won’t change anyway, and I don’t want you to develop any health issues from keeping it all inside!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Qiu Ruoxi, who had been completely ignoring Ye Xunhuan, trembled slightly.
"Ye Xunhuan, you..."
Seeing Qiu Ruoxi’s reaction, Ye Xunhuan knew in his heart that he had used the right approach.
He wasn’t afraid of Qiu Ruoxi getting angry, he feared her silence and cold demeanor more than anything, that was even scarier than her anger!
Ye Xunhuan chuckled and hurriedly said, "Wife, it’s really not what you think, Olivia is just a friend of mine. She helped me a bit last time in Milan, and I just wanted to thank her, it’s not like what you think!"
"You know, there’s a time difference between our country and others!" Ye Xunhuan explained, "She was sleeping, dressed like that, I really had no say in it..."
At this moment, Wang Ma finally understood; these two were fighting because of another woman.
Previously worried, Wang Ma now felt somewhat gleeful instead of worried.
You see, before Qiu Ruoxi never cared about Ye Xunhuan, but now getting angry over a woman showed that Ye Xunhuan had a place in Qiu Ruoxi’s heart.
Otherwise, why would she be angry!
This meant their relationship was developing towards that of a normal husband and wife, which was a good thing!
"Miss, did you perhaps misunderstand your husband..."
"Misunderstand?" Qiu Ruoxi snorted coldly, "I know there’s a time difference between here and abroad, and I can understand how she was dressed, but what about you wearing only your boxers?"
"Are you telling me you were about to sleep?"
"I had just taken a shower..."
"Showered?" Qiu Ruoxi stared intently at Ye Xunhuan, her sharp eyes as if to completely penetrate the thoughts inside Ye Xunhuan’s heart!
Facing Qiu Ruoxi’s intense gaze, Ye Xunhuan didn’t back down nor show any fear, facing her interrogative eyes squarely.
Qiu Ruoxi watched for a long while but couldn’t make out anything from Ye Xunhuan’s face.
The thoughts she had before began to waver.
Had she really been wrong before? Had she wronged him?
But this bastard was a first-rate actor; could he be fooling her with his acting?
However, remembering the moment Ye Xunhuan ran out with a bomb in Milan, her heart immediately softened.
"I’ll trust you this time!" Qiu Ruoxi finally chose to believe Ye Xunhuan.
She and Ye Xunhuan needed each other’s trust, a fact Qiu Ruoxi was clear about.
Although Qiu Ruoxi’s voice was still cold, it was much milder than before, which made Ye Xunhuan breathe a sigh of relief.
But he was also curious, was this woman so easily convinced?
Right at that moment, Wang Ma spoke, "That’s right, Miss, husband, the most important thing between spouses is trust. If there isn’t even basic trust, with you suspecting her and she suspecting you, such a marriage can never go far, it simply can’t last!"
In relationships, without trust there is no association, it is trust that lasts!
If there’s no trust between a husband and wife, that marriage is bound to quickly fall apart!
As these somewhat nagging concerns echoed in her ears, Qiu Ruoxi slowly turned her gaze towards Ye Xunhuan and started scanning him back and forth.
Could she fully trust him?
After all, this guy had often lied to her before.
When Ye Xunhuan met Qiu Ruoxi’s gaze, he smiled gently. He knew, just as she did, that what they lacked the most was trust.
But for Qiu Ruoxi to completely trust him, how difficult would that be!
Afterwards, the three of them sat down at the dining table and began to eat, as if the unpleasantness brought by Olivia had also vanished at that moment.
"Honey, is everything sorted out in Milan?" Ye Xunhuan asked with concern.
Qiu Ruoxi nodded indifferently, "It’s sorted. Thank my friends for me!"
As she spoke these words, the curiosity in Qiu Ruoxi’s heart surfaced again.
After Ye Xunhuan left, many dignitaries came to get to know her, even someone as notable as Nicholas from the Church, ranking just below the Pope.
Moreover, every one of these people was extremely polite and respectful towards her, and the luxury brand merchants also suddenly came flooding in, actively discussing collaborations with her.
Although Qiu Ruoxi didn’t say much at the time, always maintaining a calm and indifferent expression, her heart was filled with shock. She knew all of this must be related to Ye Xunhuan!
Later, when Qiu Ruoxi asked Dominic, he only stammered and dared not say more. When pressed further, a frightened Dominic simply knelt on the ground, begging her not to ask anymore.
What kind of background did this guy have abroad that could make the three major Italian Mafia families come out to protect her, Qiu Ruoxi, and countless dignitaries scramble to make her acquaintance and be seen in her presence!
Curious!
She really wanted to ask Ye Xunhuan, but would he tell her?
"What about Xiahou Yuzhu?"
"Your friend helped send him over to Grandpa’s place!" Qiu Ruoxi said calmly, looking at Ye Xunhuan, "Ye Xunhuan, what exactly is your role abroad that makes so many people seem to fear you!"
Ye Xunhuan chuckled upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s words. How could they not fear him?
The Marshal’s dragon-slaying saber was not something just anyone could handle, not to mention there were the Church and Olivia secretly helping Qiu Ruoxi at that time.
In such circumstances, who would dare touch a hair on Qiu Ruoxi, who would dare offend her in the slightest.
Otherwise, you might not even know how you died.
"What do you think?"
"I don’t know!" Qiu Ruoxi shook her head honestly.
She really couldn’t figure out what kind of status Ye Xunhuan had abroad that could influence so many powerful figures.
"If I tell you that with just one word from me, their families would be destroyed, would you believe me?"
Believe it?
Qiu Ruoxi was silent.
If Ye Xunhuan had said this before, she would never have believed him, thinking he was just bragging. But now, she wasn’t so sure!
But the power Ye Xunhuan demonstrated in Milan was too terrifying.
As Qiu Ruoxi was rendered speechless, the doorbell of the villa rang.
Ye Xunhuan was startled by the sound of the doorbell.
Who could it be at this time?
