A resolute look flashed across Lan Shan's eyes. When he looked at the man's straight and strong back, his eyes were once again filled with love. He obediently replied, "Big Brother Ting, I was in the wrong this time.
After Lan Shan finished speaking, he bit his lips and turned to walk out of the office.
But unexpectedly, when he walked to the entrance of the office, he bumped into Liu Ni who was wearing a white suit walking in.
When Liu Ni saw Lan Shan, his breath tightened and he stared at her face for a long time. Finally, he sighed in his heart and nodded to her, "Miss Lan Shan."
Lan Shan nodded to Liu Ni as he walked past her.
Liu Ni turned his head to look at Lan Shan.
Lan Shan was wearing a short dress made of satin with pink lotus leaf sleeves. The hem of the skirt was also in the shape of a flower petal, revealing two thin and white calves.
Last year, when she had just entered the Huo's, this Miss Lan Shan was still wearing a pretty head of short hair.
Every time he saw this Miss Lan Shan, Liu Ni would always think of a pretty face.
It was for nothing other than that this Miss Lan Shan and the girl in her impression of could be imagined in certain aspects.
Liu Ni thought that if her hair had grown a little longer, perhaps she would be even more similar.
Pursing his lips, Liu Ni calmed himself down and walked towards the office.
"CEO, I've found what you wanted me to find out. The one who stayed at the Royal Palace Hotel room 1011 was a female guest, her name was Song Le. " Liu Ni respectfully reported the contents of his investigations to Huo Yaoting.
Huo Yaoting sat on the black class chair, the engravings on his face did not change at all when he heard Liu Ni's words. His black eyes glanced at Liu Ni, "Song Le?"
"Yes, CEO." Liu Ni nodded.
Huo Yaoting pursed her lips, hung her thick black long eyelashes, and remained silent.
Liu Ni glanced at Huo Yaoting from the corner of his eyes, and then quickly withdrew his gaze, his face filled with constipation that was almost suffocated with curiosity.
"Go down." Huo Yaoting retracted his eyebrows, his expression still unreadable.
Liu Ni's eyelids jumped, and especially took the initiative to ask, "CEO, do you want to check again on this girl called Song Le?"
"Little girl?" Huo Yaoting raised his brows and looked coldly at Liu Ni, "How do you know she's a little girl?"
"?" Liu Ni's heart thumped, and he smiled in embarrassment, "I guessed, I guessed."
Huo Yaoting's handsome face turned cold, his gaze was like ice blades that shot straight at Liu Ni.
Liu Ni's heart trembled, and immediately lowered his head.
Cold sweat trickled down his back.
The CEO was almost thirty years old, and the Xiao Leng Qi around his body was also increasing with each passing day.
It used to be cold, but now it's lonely.
His personality was getting weirder and weirder. He wondered if it was because he hadn't lived for two years.
"What else did Secretary Liu guess?" Huo Yaoting lowered his head, his eyes that were as deep as a pool stared straight at the computer screen in front of him, his long and powerful fingers starting to tap the keyboard.
"Also, I guessed it. Miss Song Le is currently staying at a three-star hotel."
Liu Ni said while trembling, his legs even starting to tremble.
He couldn't help but regret that he had investigated this Miss Song Le on his own.
However, she had good intentions as well, alright?
After all ?
The CEO is in her prime, no life is very pitiful, okay? Now that he had finally met a girl he was interested in and wanted her to investigate, she naturally had to take note on behalf of the CEO.
All right.
The truth is.
A CEO without X's life is really hard to serve!
She did it for herself! Tap tap tap tap!
But after hearing Liu Ni's words.
Huo Yaoting's finger that was tapping on the keyboard suddenly stopped.
At the hotel.
Ye Xi covered himself in bed and sweated hot sweat on a hot day. Along the way, he rang his alarm several times, but he was unable to wake her up.
At two in the afternoon, Ye Xi finally opened his eyes hazily and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He pressed his temples with his fingertips and shook his head.
As he lifted the warm blanket, Ye Xi curled up his body and buried his face in the pillow for a moment.
He lazily got up from the bed, opened the safe and grabbed a dress from inside, then went into the bathroom.
After bathing and washing his hair, Ye Xi finally regained some energy, and his face regained some color.
Ye Xi poured the cold water from the thermos into a cup, and took another drink before he took his bag and left the room.
On the taxi heading to Lan's Mansion, Ye Xi leaned on the back of the car, her pure and i
ocent face facing the window, her lustrous eyes rippling outwards along with the scenery outside the window.
As for the ten thin white fingers on her knees, they were tightly holding onto the hem of her skirt, causing her delicate joints to turn white.
Half an hour later, the taxi stopped at Lan's Mansion, and Ye Xi paid the fare and was about to get off.
Then, the hand holding the handle of the car timidly didn't dare to push it away.
Two years.
What are mother and grandfather like now? Did Lan Shan still hate her? Since there had been no news of her in the past two years, did they think that she no longer existed in this world?
There were too many misgivings and even greater eagerness in his heart, causing the current Ye Xi to feel incomparable cowardice.
Only until the driver in front impatiently urged Ye Xi to take a step forward did Ye Xi no longer have any choice but to open the car door and alight.
However, after getting off the car ?
When Ye Xi saw the locked, heavy, vermillion wood door, his heart sank.
Holding his breath, Ye Xi ran forward in a fluster. Her jade white hands held onto the door knocker that was covered with a little bit of spiderweb and her pair of black crystal-like eyes fiercely trembled.
She looked up at the corners of the wooden door, where cobwebs fluttered in the breeze.
The owner of the house had not simply left but had not been here for a very long time.
Ye Xi's small face trembled, the unease in her heart grew bigger and bigger.
Letting go of the knocker, Ye Xi turned and ran towards the bus stop, his steps in a mess.
Ye Family Apartment.
Ye Xi had already pressed the doorbell countless times, but every time, no one replied her, as this door was always closed to her.
Ye Xi's eyes were bloodshot, his body leaning weakly against the door, his forehead helpless against the door.
Clenching his teeth tightly, Ye Xi did not allow himself to cry.
However, the soreness in her heart kept rushing into her eyes, which were unbearably dry.
At this moment.
She suddenly felt like an orphan who couldn't find a home.
Mom, where did you go?
Ye Xi fiercely bit down on his forefinger, tears finally uncontrollably gushing out from his eyes.
It was night, and it was as if Ye Xi had returned to the hotel with no master, as he closed the door. Facing the darkness of the room, all of the negative feelings of collapse surged, Ye Xi covered his face, and slid down the door with all his strength. His tiny body curled up on the floor, and he could no longer hold back his tears.
