The night was getting deeper and quieter.
When Yi Xiu Jie returned from the hospital, he met his mother in the courtyard.
"Mom."
Yi Xiu Jie asked warmly.
Ling Hong Yu drank and her face turned red. Seeing her eldest son returning home at this time, she casually asked, "Xiujie, are you working overtime again?"
"Yes." Yi Xiu Jie nodded, not wanting to let his mother know that he had accompanied Ye Qing throughout the entire night. If she had not threatened him, if he had not left, she would not have slept, and he would have wanted to stay at the hospital to keep vigil.
How could she not feel his kindness? She kept thinking that he had only taken care of her and visited her because of Zhang Xiao.
Slow enough.
"Don't be so tired." After walking two steps, she turned back and said suspiciously: "Xiujie, you lied to mom. Your uncle said that you haven't been to the company for the past few days, so you don't have to work overtime. What are you up to? Every day I go out at dawn with breakfast in my hand and come back so late at night."
With a calm expression, Yi Xiu Jie calmly replied: "Busy with what I need to do."
Ling Hong Yu was at a loss for words, what kind of answer was this?
After thinking about it, she suddenly asked happily, "Xiujie, are you chasing girls?"
Yi Xiu Jie's footsteps paused, and then he smiled lightly, "Mom, if you want to think like that, then it's fine." He was twenty-eight years old, and he could marry if he wanted to.
"Really, who is that girl? Beautiful? Family? Xiujie, although your father is no longer here, you still have your mother and your uncle. You are someone with a background and status, you have to find a good girl who is worthy of you, okay? If you aren't the Wealthy Class's daughter, you can't even take it." Her son, Ling Hong Yu, was going to marry the Wealthy Class's daughter.
Yi Xiu Jie's eyes twinkled, "Mom, I don't care about those, I only care about those people."
Ling Hong Yu stared at him, "Is her family situation really that bad?" She had never seen her eldest son being close with any other family's daughter before, and because of her eldest son's taciturn actions and the indifference of those Miss Qian Jin s towards anyone, they didn't want to take the initiative to chase after him.
Even so, she would not allow her son to find a poor girl.
Yi Xiu Jie laughed, "Mom, we have yet to talk about anything, let's not talk about this yet." Ye Qing was an orphan and didn't even have a fixed home. Her biggest wish was to buy her own house.
Just like Zhang Xiao, she did not like to rely on others and liked to rely on herself. She relied on her own hands to conjure up her own blue sky, he believed that she would be able to make it out of her blue sky.
Ling Hong Yu still wanted to say a few more words, but seeing that he was walking towards the house, it was clear that he did not want to talk about love matters, so she could only swallow her words. She caught up with his son and entered the house with him.
"Xiujie." Seeing that Yi Xiu Jie was about to go upstairs after entering the house, Ling Hong Yu called for him again.
Yi Xiu Jie stopped and turned to look at his mother, waiting for her to ask.
Ling Hong Yu took out his own phone, and said: "My time seems to be off. Show your phone to mom, check the time."
Yi Xiu Jie said as he took out his own phone and handed it over to his mother. When Ling Hong Yu took the phone, he said: "Mom, I'll go upstairs and take a bath first. Help me take my phone upstairs after you set the time."
Ling Hong Yu could only wish for it.
The reason why she asked for Yi Xiu Jie's phone was not to change the time, but to find out how to contact Zhang Xiao from his phone.
The Zhang Yu brothers were useless. When they went to look for Yi Xiu Jie at the company, they escaped in less than two minutes, as if they had done a heinous crime.
Even though she advised Zhang Hao Tian to find Zhang Xiao, Zhang Hao Tian still did not agree. For this matter, Zhang Hao Tian intentionally went to the party alone tonight, and did not accompany her to the Lu Family to attend the banquet.
Yi Xiu Jie went upstairs.
Ling Hong Yu hurriedly walked in front of the sofa and sat down, then went to press Yi Xiu Jie's cell phone. However, there was a pattern on the screen of Yi Xiu Jie's phone, and she didn't know what the unlocked pattern was.
Even if he could not unlock the pattern on the lock, he could still face time, and she could not let Yi Xiu Jie help her. Otherwise, Yi Xiu Jie would know her purpose.
Yi Xiu Jie was opposed to her introducing Zhang Xiao to Ning Zhi Yuan. Seriously, she did that all for the sake of the three brothers, but he only helped Zhang Xiao instead. The Zhang Yu brothers were his brothers, but they didn't look as concerned as he did. Zhang Xiao did not have any blood relation to him, so he was extremely tense on the inside.
Thinking of how Zhang Hao Tian wanted to fuse with Yi Xiu Jie, Ling Hong Yu felt his scalp go numb.
Zhang Hao Tian was still not willing to go and find Zhang Xiao now. Could it be that he was not willing to give up on the relationship between Yi Xiu Jie and the two of them?
Ling Hong Yu tried to unlock the pattern on the screen of Yi Xiu Jie's phone a few times but still couldn't. She was a little discouraged. She wasn't willing to give his son back his phone just like that.
After thinking about it, she immediately shut down Yi Xiu Jie's phone, dug out Yi Xiu Jie's phone card, and then placed it into his own phone. That way, she could look up Yi Xiu Jie's contact list.
Fortunately, Yi Xiu Jie did not set up his PIN.
After opening Yi Xiu Jie's contact list, Ling Hong Yu quickly looked through the phone numbers. However, the numbers that were stored in Yi Xiu Jie's contact list were all from those customers, and all of them had a general description written on them. Other than the customer's contact number, there was only one other family, but not Zhang Xiao's.
"Why isn't there that damned girl?"
Ling Hong Yu muttered, feeling that something was amiss. Yi Xiu Jie treated Zhang Xiao so well, how could she not have her number.
At the stairs on the second floor, Yi Xiu Jie hid there and watched his mother's every move.
Her mother did not find any contact number for Zhang Xiao on his phone. That defeated yet unreconciled look made Yi Xiu Jie sneer, then turn and walk back to his own room.
He would never remember Zhang Xiao's phone number, so he did not need to keep it in his phone.
It was impossible for his mother to find Zhang Xiao's contact number on his phone.
Mother would also never be able to get Zhang Xiao's contact information from him.
She just could not understand, Zhang Xiao had already moved out of the Zhang Family, and was no longer occupying the slightest bit of glory in the Zhang Family. She had been self-reliant for the past nine years, so why did her mother not let him go?
Thinking about the hatred Zhang Xiao had towards his parents, Yi Xiu Jie let out a low sigh. If her parents really appeared in front of Zhang Xiao and forced him to date her, Zhang Xiao would definitely have a huge argument with his parents and her relationship with him would then become even more awkward and cold.
He didn't want her and his father to go on.
It had been nine years since father and daughter met face to face. How many more were there in life? His uncle already felt guilty, but he still couldn't bring himself to look for Zhang Xiao.
