Chapter 677 The storm is coming
His voice was icy cold, like a thousand-year-old ice falling into Zhou Yi's heart, making her tremble.
Zhou Yi's face turned deathly pale.
She couldn't stop it...
The phone went silent. At that moment, Qin Shi's taut string could no longer hold on and snapped with a "snap".
He had lost all reason.
"Fine, if you won't tell me, I'll come to Qingbei Villa right now."
I hung up the phone and stepped on the gas.
In an instant, the car drove out of the underground parking garage.
"Beep beep..."
The busy signal came through. Zhou Yi held the phone, looking like a soulless puppet, devoid of any vitality.
My brother wants her to quit her job; he doesn't want her working for Mr. anymore...
Why is your face so pale?
Strong arms encircled her body, and her back rested against a firm chest.
Zhou Yi snapped out of her daze and immediately looked at the person who had appeared behind her without her noticing: "Sir, you... how did you get here?"
Her eyes widened, and as if realizing something, she quickly looked behind him.
Yu Yu was nowhere to be seen, nor was anyone else; the gentleman came alone.
"Sir, where is Yuyu?"
She looked at him, her face frighteningly pale, her eyes completely lifeless, as if she had lost her soul. But because of his appearance, her eyes lit up, and worry, self-blame, and apology instantly filled them.
Wenren Chen pulled his arms closer, his large hand enveloping her small hand, which was icy cold and devoid of its usual warmth.
He held her little hand tightly, wrapped her up completely, and said, "Mom is taking her to play."
"Old lady?"
Zhou Yixin tensed up, looked around, and said, "Madam...Madam..."
She wanted to ask the old lady if she knew, but she stopped herself before she could ask.
The old lady will never know.
Because the gentleman didn't know what had happened either.
Even if he knew, the master wouldn't say anything; he wouldn't want the old lady to worry.
But now...
Zhou Yi pursed her lips, looked away, grabbed the person staring at her with her small hand, and said, "Sir, I... can I ask for half a day off? I... I need to go out for a bit."
Yes, she had to go out to Qingbei Villa to explain to her brother.
Brother, you really misunderstood, you really misunderstood.
She suddenly became like this, I don't know why. Maybe it was because of the news last night, or maybe Zhou Jianye went to see her brother, or some other reason.
But whatever the reason, she has to talk to her brother now, otherwise he'll make her resign today.
She couldn't resign; she had to work for her husband.
She owes her husband so much; she cannot leave.
Her face was filled with anxiety for a moment, so much so that she gripped his clothes tightly.
Wenren Chen said, "Let's go together."
He gripped her fingers tightly and led her away.
Zhou Yi was stunned.
They...together?
This...this is not allowed.
The husband has work to do, he has many things to do, and he cannot be affected or delayed by her any longer.
Zhou Yi quickly grabbed his clothes and said, "Sir, you don't need to go. It's nothing. I can go by myself. I'll be back as soon as I've taken care of it. Don't worry."
The gentleman noticed her unusual behavior and became worried about her.
She still affected her husband.
He heard her anxious words, and her slender fingers gripped his shirt, desperately trying to stop him from leaving.
Wenren Chen looked down at her. Her eyes were red, like a little rabbit that had been bullied. She was huddled in the corner, looking pitiful.
He pulled her close with his strong arms, their bodies pressed together. He looked into her eyes and said, "I'm not busy today."
Zhou Yi: "..."
not busy……
The gentleman said he wasn't busy...
How could this happen?
My husband is always very busy, especially today, which is a normal workday, not the weekend.
The gentleman never takes a day off on weekdays.
The gentleman knew she had something to do, so he wanted to accompany her and help her resolve the matter.
"Sir, I'm really fine, it's just... just a small matter, really, I'll take care of it now, it'll be done quickly, don't worry."
"I'll be back as soon as I've taken care of it. You can focus on your work. Everything's fine here."
Wenren Chen led her to the front yard, and Zhou Yi had no choice but to follow him, but she kept talking, trying to stop him.
As Wenren Chen listened to her urgent words, he wrapped his large hand around her trembling, uneasy fingers and held them tightly, conveying all her emotions from her fingertips to the depths of his heart.
He gazed at her, his eyes deep and intense: "I've said it before, nothing is more important than you."
Zhou Yi's voice was hoarse.
She stared at him blankly, at his deep gaze, wondering if it was her imagination, the angle, or something else, but his gaze seemed very different to her.
It seems... to be revealing something...
In an instant, Zhou Yi panicked.
I'm even more panicked than before.
Startled, she dared not meet his gaze and could only lower her head to avoid it, her long eyelashes trembling as if startled.
Seeing her evasive gaze, Wenren Chen's arms and palms tightened like a territory, encircling her again and again.
She wanted to escape, but it was impossible.
The two walked toward the front yard, and servants walked past them with their heads bowed.
After the two left the front yard, got into the car, and drove away shortly afterward.
The servant hurried toward the chrysanthemum garden.
Autumn has arrived, and the chrysanthemums have begun to bloom. In this corner of the old house, various varieties are blooming in a riot of colors, vying for attention.
It seems that no matter what happens in this world, even if the world turns upside down, it cannot affect them.
Meanwhile, Sheng Mingying was enjoying the flowers in the chrysanthemum garden with her little one.
Aunt Qi was by her side.
Soon, the maid came over, and when Qi Ma saw her, she left silently.
The maid came to Aunt Qi and told her about the situation in the front yard.
After listening, Aunt Qi looked towards the front yard and said, "Go downstairs."
The servant bowed her head and quickly left.
Qi Ma turned around, went to the chrysanthemum garden, and came up behind Sheng Mingying.
Aunt Dong was holding the little one, squatting in front of the clusters of beautiful blooming flowers, letting the little one pick up the flowers.
Don't let his gender fool you, this little guy loves flowers.
Whenever she sees flowers, she thinks of giving them to Zhou Yi, so that Sheng Mingying will often smile. Her precious grandson will never have to worry about finding a wife when he grows up.
It's something that girls would absolutely flock to.
As Qi's mother came up behind her, Sheng Mingying said to the little one, "Yuyu, you play first. Grandma has something to do, but she'll play with you later."
Upon hearing Sheng Mingying's words, the little guy immediately raised his face and looked at Sheng Mingying.
Sheng Mingying smiled and gently patted his little face, saying, "Good boy~"
She turned and sat down in the pavilion. Qi Ma followed her into the pavilion, poured tea for Sheng Mingying, and said, "Sixth Young Master and Young Madam left together."
As Sheng Mingying listened to her words, her old eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at the darkening sky in the distance.
The weather isn't very good today. A thick layer of dark clouds is rolling towards Yunzhou City from afar, and it looks like it's about to rain.
Sheng Mingying said, "This day was bound to come sooner or later, and now it's almost here."
Hearing her words and seeing her expression, Aunt Qi handed her the tea: "Is there anything we need to do?"
Sheng Mingying took the teacup, took a small sip of tea, and said, "Wait."
