The driver, dressed in a black suit, stood upright next to the open door, waiting respectfully.
Haiyue smiled and nodded to the two maids guarding the door, and was about to walk down the stairs and sit in the car.[
But Butler Li suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Haiyue, "Madam! Please wait a moment!"
Haiyue turned to look at Butler Li in confusion.
"The sun is a bit strong, please be sure to hold an umbrella, madam!" Butler Li said while winking at the driver. The latter understood immediately, bent down and got into the car, and brought a folding umbrella over.
Is the sun too bright?
Haiyue raised her head and glanced at the sun that had just climbed up to the sky and was emitting warm rays. There was a black line on her forehead. She opened her mouth to stop Butler Li from being overly cautious and walked down the stairs slowly. "It's just a little bit of sunshine. It's nothing."
relation……"
"No!" Butler Li refused without thinking. He opened his umbrella and blocked the sunlight above Haiyue's head while saying, "The young master even called me back this morning to tell me that he must take good care of his wife."
Sikong Jingqiu... called back this morning?
Haiyue froze as she got into the car, and slowly turned back to look at Butler Li. After a while, she said, "Did he... call back this morning?"
"Yeah." Butler Li nodded.
Haiyue licked her lips and her voice was a bit choppy, "Did he say... when he would be back?"
Butler Li didn't answer, he just glanced at Haiyue, then turned his head and looked at the back seat of the car. His intention was very obvious, that he wanted Haiyue to get into the car first, and then he would tell her the answer.
Haiyue was silent for a moment and sat in the car.
Butler Li put away his umbrella and got in. After closing the car door and telling the driver to drive, he said expressionlessly, "Young Master's flight is at 11 o'clock at noon. He will be home at three o'clock."
Haiyue nodded, and the hands hanging by her legs involuntarily grasped the corners of her clothes.
Sikong Jingqiu will be back at three o'clock in the afternoon.
Somehow, after hearing the news, Haiyue found that her heart was trembling slightly, as if...as if...she had been looking forward to Sikong Jingqiu's return.
