The butler raised his hand to the window, leaned down, and slowly turned away.

Qu Zhenzhen looked up, and the figure by the window also heard the movement and slowly turned around to look.

The two looked at each other, and Qu Zhenzhen was in a trance, as if she hadn't seen him for a long time.

"How are you doing?"

He stepped forward, a familiar smile on his face.

Qu Zhenzhen also hooked her lips and nodded at him with a smile, "It's not bad, what about you?" ”

……

In the living room, the housekeeper went back and forth, and served a few plates of fruit snacks to the Wanxin family who were sitting in the living room watching TV. At this time, Xie Yaotian, who was upstairs, ended the video conference, held on to the handrail of the stairs with one hand, and came down the stairs.

His eyes swept around the hall, but he didn't see Qu Zhenzhen's figure, he frowned slightly, and asked the housekeeper, "Where is the young lady?" ”

The housekeeper stopped turning around, leaned over slightly, and replied, "Mr. Hui, the young lady is meeting guests in the living room." ”

"Still entertaining? How long has it been? ”

He went to a meeting just now, and a meeting lasted about half an hour, and he hadn't finished yet?

The butler pondered for a moment and replied, "About, half an hour." ”

Xie Yaotian was slightly stunned, this answer, in fact, did not need to be answered by the housekeeper, he probably estimated the time himself.

"Well, I see, you go down first."

Xie Yaotian nodded to the butler and walked towards the living room.

There is only a long corridor between the living room and the living room.

Passing through the corridor and through a carved window, you can see the approximate location of the living room.

Xie Yaotian walked all the way, please be quiet in the corridor, but there were a few servants passing by, and when they saw him, they stopped and said hello.

Xie Yaotian's expression was faint, his chin responded, passed through the wooden door, and stepped into the living room.

He stepped in with his front foot, and in the second he did, his face sank.

Because there was no one in the parlor......

"What about people?"

Xie Yaotian lowered his voice and asked the servant at the door with a sideways look.

"Mr. Hui, is it the young lady who is asking?" The servant was stunned and asked.

"Or else?" Xie Yaotian frowned, and looked at her with displeasure.

The maid shuddered, quickly lowered his head, and replied nervously: "I'm sorry!" Sir, I've just been here, and I'm not quite clear—"

"That's not what I want to hear."

Xie Yaotian interrupted her explanation in a low voice.

The maid hurriedly stopped and replied respectfully, "Yes, young lady, young lady has taken the guest to the back garden." ”

After receiving the answer, Xie Yaotian didn't stay any longer, didn't say a word, turned around and strode in the direction of the back garden.

As the evening approached, the sky was getting darker, and the fiery sunset was shining on the horizon.

When Xie Yaotian walked to the back garden, he happened to see two men and women standing side by side under the fiery sunset.

The man was gentle, with a faint smile on his face, and his eyes looked intently at the woman next to him; The woman tilted her head slightly, looking at the remnant sun in the distance, and the fiery red light sprinkled on her face, revealing a hazy sense of unreality.

In the eyes of others, this scene may feel like the one in front of them

A man and a woman are made in heaven, so compatible. But in Xie Yaotian's eyes, at this moment, he just wanted to beat people.

A few steps forward, Xie Yaotian stepped into the two of them with a movement of his long legs, and forcibly separated the two of them by two steps. At the same time, he said lightly: "What are you talking about?" ”

Both of them were stunned, Qu Zhenzhen slowly came back to her senses, looked at Xie Yaotian who was holding her shoulders strongly, and replied in a low voice: "I didn't say anything." ”

The man on the side first glanced at Xie Yaotian, and then said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I just chatted casually with my junior sister." ”

Xie Yaotian's eyes lit up, and he looked sideways at Yin Zeyan, "It's a little late, Hazel Zhen is still pregnant, it's not appropriate to stay outside for a long time, if there is anything, you better go into the house and talk." ”

"Well, it's better that way."

In the face of Xie Yaotian's sneer, Yin Zeyan behaved very casually, didn't seem to care, and followed Xie Yaotian to the house as he spoke.

Xie Yaotian lowered his gaze slightly, looking at his steps behind him, with a faint displeasure in his eyes.

He walked in front with Qu Zhenzhen, and when he turned the corner, he inadvertently said to Qu Zhenzhen: "It's warm and comfortable to chat in the conference room, why did you think of running to the back garden?" ”

Qu Zhenzhen stared ahead, thinking about things, and when she heard Xie Yaotian's voice, she didn't think much about it, and replied directly: "The air outside is good, and it's boring to chat in the house, so the senior proposed to come out for a walk." ”

"Oh, that's right." Xie Yaotian retracted his gaze, and glanced at Yin Zeyan.

This man has disappeared for a few months, why not just disappear, but appearing when everything is not going well like him is really enough to make him feel irritable.

"Brother Zeyan should also stay and eat together."

When he walked to the living room, the maid and nanny were arranging dinner, and Qu Zhenzhen looked at it and said to Yin Zeyan naturally.

The moment he said it, Xie Yaotian's eyes froze, and then after hearing the person behind him say extremely embarrassedly, "Okay, then bother", the displeasure in his eyes increased again.

Xia Wanxin is a hospitable master, and this characteristic cannot be changed in any place, even if it is in the Xie Mansion.

At dinner, everyone sat down at the table, and the atmosphere was slightly weird. Xia Wanxin didn't know it alone, so she still clinked glasses with everyone happily, and took Jing Yuanhao to join Yin Zeyan's chat.

Everyone hasn't seen each other for a long time, and Xia Wanxin and Yin Zeyan also had some contact before, and now that he has disappeared for so long and suddenly appeared, he naturally has a lot of questions to ask.

When asked where he had been in the past few months, the Qu Hazel on the opposite side also cast a curious gaze.

Yin Zeyan's polite words came to his lips, and he changed his mouth after seeing Qu Zhenzhen's gaze. She is still paying attention to herself, does she still care?

"It's just a trip." He smiled and looked at the curved hazel opposite.

Qu Zhenzhen's eyes lit up, as if she was interested, took Xia Wanxin's curiosity, and continued to ask: "Brother Zeyan, where did you travel, how do you feel that after you came back, it has become a little different." ”

“…… Have it? ”

Yin Zeyan raised his eyebrows and looked at Qu Zhenzhen with a smile, his eyes were full of tenderness. Jing Yuanhao, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but be stunned, and then opened his mouth slightly, as if he had suddenly discovered something earth-shattering, and turned his stunned eyes to Xie Yaotian, who was sitting on the main seat.

Xie Yaotian's expression was faint, hmm...... It should be said that he was eating with a blank face.

The knife and fork in his hand flashed silver light in his hand, and he didn't have anything abnormal, but Jing Yuanhao was inexplicably worried, and the next second the knife and fork in his hand would fly to Yin Zeyan's head opposite.

"...... "Hmm...... It's scary to imagine.

Jing Yuanhao got goosebumps all over his body, trembled, put down his fork, and rubbed his hands on his arms.

Xia Wanxin was finishing cutting the steak for Xiao Fenghe, turned her head and saw him rubbing his arms frantically, and asked curiously, "What are you doing?" ”

"I have something to do—" Jing Yuanhao paused, and when he saw Xia Wanxin, he excitedly stepped forward and wanted to share the secret he had seen with her, but the powerful aura emanating from the main position suddenly increased, and he swallowed the words that came to his mouth in shock.

"Nothing, nothing, I'm just a little cold."

He hurriedly shook his head, for the sake of the health of his wife and children, he had to swallow the words in his stomach.

"What's the ...... nervous" Xia Wanxin had already leaned over, ready to listen to what he said, seeing that he didn't say anything, she muttered a word and turned her head.

Jing Yuanhao was uncomfortable, and at this time, a servant passed by. He hurriedly raised his hand, drank the red wine in the cup, raised the empty cup to the servant, and said quickly: "Please give me a cup of hot water, thank you." ”

Everyone: "......"

Except for Xie Yaotian, who was sitting on the main seat, Xiao Fenghe, who was concentrating on fighting with the steak, and Xiao Jing'er, who was already asleep, everyone, who was playing back in slow motion, turned their eyes on Jing Yuanhao.

Jing Yuanhao paused, but he didn't expect that his words would attract everyone's attention, "What...... What's wrong? I'm just a little cold and want to drink hot water, can't I? ”

It's not impossible, it's just that the tone and voice of his speech are very abrupt.

Qu Zhenzhen smiled, retracted her gaze, and continued to turn her head and say to Yin Zeyan next to her, "So Brother Zeyan will leave again when he comes back this time?" ”

Yin Zeyan didn't answer directly, but looked at her with a smile, "What about you?" Do you want me to go? ”

Qu Zhenzhen was slightly stunned, and for some reason, she subconsciously glanced at Xie Yaotian next to her.
