When they returned to Yayuan, it was only about ten o'clock, and Lu Ziyou was still sleeping. Xiao Yingze looked at the woman smelling of alcohol, shook his head helplessly, closed the bedroom door, and then walked to the computer to start his day.
Coding work.
Near noon, Xiao Yingze received a call from the property management company of the community.
"Hey, Mr. Xiao, I am the gatekeeper of the community here. There is a Miss Ou here who says she is your guest. Can you let her in?"
Outsiders are not allowed to enter the community where Xiao Yingze lives without the permission of the owner.
At this time, Ou Qianyi was dragging a suitcase and was stopped at the entrance of the community. No matter how she explained, the security guard at the door would not let her in.
Xiao Yingze heard the doorman's words and thought for a moment. There seemed to be only one Ou Qianyi among the women named Ou he knew, so he asked.
"Can I ask her full name?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ou Qianyi's voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Second Young Master Xiao, it's me, Ou Qianyi, can we meet each other conveniently?"
People came to the door, and they were able to find out where she lived. It was obvious that this woman was determined to see him. Xiao Yingze finally said something.
"Come in, I believe Miss Ou has found the door number of the building."
"See you later."
After Ou Qianyi finished speaking, she hung up the phone, and the doorman opened the door for Ou Qianyi.
After a while, Ou Qianyi arrived at Xiao Yingze's apartment. Just as she was about to knock on the door, she found that the door was ajar. She opened the door and took a look, and heard Xiao Yingze's deep voice coming from inside.
"Miss Ou, please come in."
Ou Qianyi then walked into the apartment and saw Xiao Yingze sitting at a coffee table by the window sill making tea. She walked over and automatically sat down opposite Xiao Yingze without waiting for Xiao Yingze to speak.
"Miss Ou, you're here to celebrate the Chinese New Year. What's the point of coming to Luo City?"
As soon as Ou Qianyi sat down, Xiao Yingze politely placed a cup of tea in front of Ou Qianyi, lightly opened her thin lips, and spoke in a low and indifferent voice.
Ou Qianyi glanced down at the tea in front of her, took a sip, and said.
"I just came from Haotianju. Your servants said that they have all gone to other places. As for Si Nian, aren't they in Luo City as well?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yingze raised his eyebrows. What day was it today? Why did two people come to him to ask for help? Was he responsible for taking care of them?
However, Xiao Yingze's attitude towards Ou Qianyi was not as warm as Gu Jinmo's. Xiao Yingze took a sip of tea before slowly speaking.
"Miss Ou, I don't know in what capacity you come to see me now. Don't you think this is very abrupt?"
If the visitor is unkind, then there is no need to be polite. What's more, now that his eldest brother has passed away, Xiao Yingze doesn't want these irrelevant people to disturb his eldest brother's peace.
But she didn't expect that Ou Qianyi didn't want Xiao Yingze's attitude at all. She had expected this. Ou Qianyi said with a calm face.
"Second Young Master Xiao, if you really want Si Nian to be good to you, you should let me see him. He needs others to take care of him most now."
When Xiao Yingze heard this, he frowned slightly and finally raised his head to look at Ou Qianyi.
Xiao Yingze was thoughtful. Ou Qianyi had obviously meant something in her words just now. Could it be that Masnian was hiding something from them? But now that everyone is gone, what's the use of talking about it.
After Xiao Yingze was silent for a moment, his attitude changed slightly and he spoke tentatively.
"What Miss Ou said is really interesting. My eldest brother is the eldest son of the Xiao family. Do you think there is no one taking care of him? As for what you said is for his own good, that is even more ridiculous. Could it be that Miss Ou is my eldest brother's savior.
"
"Second Young Master Xiao, I'm not kidding, your eldest brother..."
Speaking of this, Ou Qianyi suddenly stopped, and her hands under the table were tightly pulled together. She seemed to be hesitating about something. Seeing this, Xiao Yingze frowned slightly, feeling confused.
At this time, Ou Qianyi's face suddenly became extremely solemn, and then she saw her speaking quietly.
"Sinian is ill. It is a very serious illness. He has been hiding it from you. Second Young Master Xiao, please tell me where he is now. His illness may kill him at any time."
After all, Ou Qianyi still told Mas Nian's secret. She had no choice. In the past two months, she had been looking for Mas Nian everywhere like crazy, but she tried all possible ways to contact her, but she couldn't get Mas Nian.
news.
She had been to Nanyun City no less than five times in the past two months, but the villa looked like it had not been inhabited for a long time.
This time coincided with the Chinese New Year. Ou Qianyi thought that even if Mas Nian was trying to hide from her, she would not be able to avoid coming back to celebrate the New Year with her family. However, she did not expect that when she went to Haotianju, she got the result that no one was in Luo City.
, fortunately, when she was leaving, she heard someone inside say that the second young master was still in Luo City, so she came to Yayuan to find Xiao Yingze.
Xiao Yingze was still making tea elegantly. When he heard Ou Qianyi's words, his hands visibly stopped. Although his face was very calm, the twinkling eyes betrayed his heart.
Xiao Yingze raised his head and looked at Ou Qianyi. He didn't know what tricks this woman was trying to play. His first reaction was that this woman was lying.
How could it be possible that the eldest brother was sick? Although they did not get along day and night like they did when they were children, if it was as Ou Qianyi said and he was seriously ill, how could he hide it?
But the expression on Ou Qianyi's face doesn't look like she's lying. As the boss of an entertainment company, she is used to seeing people with all kinds of excellent acting skills. If Ou Qianyi's expression is lying, then her acting skills are really great.
"Miss Ou, what do you mean? How can the boss be sick? Even if you lie, you have to find a more credible excuse."
At this time, an angry voice came from the direction of the bedroom. Lu Ziyou walked out of it wearing a men's shirt and bare legs, with a look of confusion and resentment on his face.
The two people in the tea room were stunned for a moment, especially Xiao Yingze who couldn't help but swallowed when he saw what Lu Ziyou was wearing. He hurriedly walked aside, picked up a robe and put it on Lu Ziyou's body, and asked with concern.
"Are you awake? Does your head still feel uncomfortable? I have prepared breakfast for you. You go and eat it first."
But as soon as Xiao Yingze finished speaking, the hand he was holding was pushed away by Lu Ziyou. Lu Ziyou walked straight to Ou Qianyi, sat down opposite her, and scolded her with a cold face.
"Miss Ou, even if you break up with the boss, you can't curse him with such vicious words."
Lu Ziyou was very angry. Now that Mas Nian is no longer alive, how can this woman still say such things about Mas Nian? Does the lover have to slander him like this because he can't do it?
When Ou Qianyi saw Lu Ziyou dressed like this, she obviously wanted to go in an ambiguous direction. She subconsciously glanced at Xiao Yingze, but she was not interested in what happened between Lu Ziyou and Xiao Yingze. After Lu Ziyou finished speaking, she took out her mobile phone.
"You two, after reading this report, you will know if I lied to you. As the closest people to Si Nian, have you really cared about him? He has been suffering from this disease for five or six years. You
Can you imagine how painful it must be to be unable to have any emotions?”
Ou Qianyi's face showed a trace of pain, her eyes were full of worry, and even her voice was trembling.
Lu Ziyou and Xiao Yingze looked at the mobile phone that Ou Qianyi took out, and then looked at each other. After that, Xiao Yingze directly picked up the mobile phone.
Inside is a case report, with the three characters "Mas Year" clearly written on the name, and the date on it is actually six years ago.
Xiao Yingze's heart suddenly froze, and he felt like he had been hit hard by something. Six years ago, it seemed to be Masnian's last year studying in the UK.
After that, he returned to Luo City, and then used work as an excuse to move from Haotianju to the city, which is Yayuan. Then three and a half years ago, on the second day of Xiao Yingxi's birthday, Mas Nian came
I volunteered to go to the branch in the UK and stayed there for another three years.
If you think about it carefully, in the past six years, the total number of days that their family and Mas Nian have been together is probably less than one month. Even if Mas Nian was still in Luo City three years ago, he occasionally went back to Haotian Ju for a meal.
He rarely stayed overnight in the villa, so from then on, Masnian had been deliberately keeping a distance from all of them in order to conceal his illness.
Xiao Yingze stared at the case for a long time. He knew every word in it, but when they were put together, he couldn't figure out what the disease was.
"How do you have this?"
Xiao Yingze looked at it for a long time and finally remembered that Ou Qianyi was still there, so he hurriedly took the phone and asked.
"He told me personally. In order to break up with me, he told me the secret he had hidden for many years."
Ou Qianyi no longer hides anything at this moment. She wants to take this opportunity to get closer to the Xiao family, so that maybe she and Mas Nian can still be together.
After hearing Ou Qianyi's answer, Xiao Yingze fell into deep thought. He was judging the credibility of these words, but Lu Ziyou on the side spoke directly.
"Miss Ou, could it be that the boss deliberately made it up to break up with you?"
Lu Ziyou didn't believe that such a healthy Masnian would have any disease, even if he is no longer alive.
"Miss Lu, do you think I don't even have this bit of judgment? Well, let me ask you, if you and Si Nian have lived together for so many years, does he take various health supplements every day?"
When Ou Qianyi asked, Lu Ziyou looked at Xiao Yingze. After all, she rarely lived in Haotianju in the past few years, and the number of times she saw Mas Nian was even rarer.
