Chapter 2013: Chapter 1973: Invited to Breakfast
When the health doctor at the sanatorium hurried over, he found the old chief sitting in the chair with rosy cheeks, looking like he was no longer in critical condition.
So, why were those nurses so anxious to call them earlier?
"Oh, the chief is okay now?" said a doctor surnamed Lin.
"Dr. Lin, thankfully Dr. Ye just treated the chief, otherwise it would have been really dangerous," said the nurse.
Now the old man already knows about Mr. Zhou and their family history, but that young man just now, why does he feel that his eyes are somewhat like Ye Lao’s from the Ye Family, even a bit like Ye Lao when he was young?
"That Dr. Ye, why do I feel he resembles someone? Whose grandson is he?"
Whose grandson?
Mr. Zhou and the others indeed didn’t know.
They only knew Ye Qiu was from over in Jinling, but they also felt Ye Qiu might have some connection with the Ye Family in Capital City, yet Ye Qiu himself denied it.
In this situation, they were not clear about Ye Qiu’s real relationship with any family.
"We’re not very sure either," Mr. Zhou said.
Ye Qiu and Cao Ling hung out by the seaside for a while, then prepared to leave the sanatorium and return to the villa.
Ye Qiu didn’t say goodbye to Mr. Zhou and the others, and headed out of the sanatorium with Cao Ling.
Outside, they got in the car and drove towards the villa.
Back at the villa, the four girls hurried upstairs, relieved to find the paintings Ye Qiu gave them still there.
Ye Qiu watched TV by himself until after nine, and when Cao Ling and the girls finished their showers and returned to their rooms, Ye Qiu also showered and prepared to continue his cultivation.
For Ye Qiu, cultivation cannot be halted now.
Even though he had just made a breakthrough.
By around one in the morning, Ye Qiu’s phone rang again, evidently Cao Ling was calling him.
Ye Qiu picked up to hear Cao Ling ask, "Will you come over?"
For Cao Ling now, the long night brought an inexplicable sense of emptiness.
If it were before, she wouldn’t have felt this.
Now she found her mind filled only with images of Ye Qiu.
This bastard, he actually charmed her.
Ye Qiu could only stop, take his room card, and go to Cao Ling’s room, where she stood in her nightdress and asked, "If I don’t call you, will you not come over?"
"There’s pleasure in indulging."
"What?"
Cao Ling blushed as she spoke.
"That’s how it is for you now."
"I, I’m not!"
From under the quilt, the sound of rustling quickly spread.
After an unknown duration, when the two stopped, Lin Xiang, who habitually got up at midnight to use the bathroom, heard happy noises from outside Cao Ling’s door again, making Lin Xiang’s face flush with an indescribable heat.
She couldn’t imagine, usually during the day, Cao Ling seemed like an ethereal fairy, unexpectedly she could be like this too.
Thinking of her with Ye Qiu inside, Lin Xiang felt oddly uncomfortable.
Why was she feeling this?
She couldn’t understand.
Early the next morning, Ye Qiu returned to his room.
He thought Lin Xiang and the others didn’t know, but in fact, Liu Lingxiu and Lin Xiang had long heard.
Ye Qiu got up first, washed up, watched TV downstairs, and planned to go to the tea house when Lin Xiang and the others woke.
At this moment, seeing Cao Ling coming downstairs saying, "Ye Qiu, my cousin called, saying the old chief wants to invite you for breakfast."
Breakfast?
"That old man from last night?"
"It’s him."
"Can I not go?"
Ye Qiu wasn’t keen on dining with such an elderly person.
Not go?
This bastard wouldn’t go?
This is such a rare opportunity, people would find it hard to get close, even though he’s retired, he still possesses great influence.
"It’s a one-time opportunity."
Cao Ling said.
"I don’t need any opportunities."
For Ye Qiu, he didn’t need any opportunities.
"Do you truly not understand, or are you pretending?"
Cao Ling was a bit dumbfounded.
Ye Qiu was so smart, how could he not understand? Clearly, Ye Qiu simply didn’t regard the old man highly.
In others’ eyes, being invited to dine by such an elder is a great honor, but to Ye Qiu, it meant nothing.
Because he was himself, he didn’t need anything from anyone.
However, seeing Cao Ling’s glance, Ye Qiu could only say: "Fine, I’ll go with who."
"Of course, you go alone, he didn’t invite us."
While Ye Qiu was considering this, a car arrived outside.
It was the old chief’s personal bodyguard, in fact, as people say, a bodyguard from Zhongnanhai.
They came to take Ye Qiu to have breakfast with the old chief.
As Ye Qiu and Cao Ling went outside, a Hongqi sedan was already parked there.
"Dr. Ye, the chief sent us to pick you up."
"Cao Ling, you’re not going, are you?"
"I’m not going."
The old man didn’t invite her, so she wasn’t planning to go, besides, she hadn’t washed up yet.
Ye Qiu got into the Hongqi sedan, which drove away.
Ye Qiu thought it was yesterday’s sanatorium, but it wasn’t, it was another place, and upon arrival, Ye Qiu clearly felt this place’s security was much tighter, likely even a fly would struggle to enter.
This place truly wasn’t one ordinary people could enter.
The Hongqi sedan stopped, Ye Qiu disembarked and saw Cao Long and Mr. Zhou waiting, smiling at him with even more respect.
If not for Ye Qiu, they wouldn’t have had such a chance to get close to the old chief.
They had to admit, they felt in this circle, treating Ye Qiu as their leader was certainly worthwhile.
"Dr. Ye, my cousin didn’t come?"
"She didn’t come."
Ye Qiu followed Cao Long and the others inside, soon learning the place was for special leaders’ convalescence, both retired and not.
Anyway, the location was very good.
Though it wasn’t by the sea or near Beidaihe, in terms of location, it was the best around here.
Entering the courtyard inside, Ye Qiu already saw the old man from last night, with a young woman dressed as a female attendant beside him.
"You’ve come, I’ve long missed chatting with young people like you, seeing all of you makes me feel much younger."
"Chief, we’re not young anymore, almost thirty."
Mr. Zhou joked.
Almost thirty?
"That’s still young."
