The first thousand one hundred and forty-eight chapters
Ye Bufan drove the car. In order to relieve Yiluoxiang's tension, the two of them chatted while walking.
"Who else is in your family?"
"Both my parents are here, and they don't know how hard they were affected by my absence for such a long time.
I was so possessed back then that I actually committed suicide for such a scumbag. Now that I think about it, I really feel sorry for my parents."
Speaking of this, Yiluoxiang looked remorseful and regretted her stupid behavior back then.
Ye Bufan comforted him: "Don't worry, your parents are not too old either, so they must be fine."
"It was really hard for my parents to raise me, especially my father. My grandparents passed away early when I was young, and it was he who raised my second uncle..."
Yi Luoxiang began to tell, and kept telling Ye Bufan about her family affairs.
His father's name is Yi Zhengwei and his mother's name is Jiang Chunling. They were childhood sweethearts and later started from scratch and built a large company with assets worth billions.
Especially Yi Zhengwei is a very capable person.
While talking, they came to the western suburbs and pointed to a separate courtyard not far away.
"Xiaofan, my home is there. I grew up there. My father likes peace and quiet, so he bought a separate yard and built a house here..."
As the saying goes, people become more timid when they are close to home. Speaking of this, Yiluoxiang choked and started crying.
After being trapped in the Dragon King Palace for so many years, I finally came back today.
Ye Bufan parked the car at the door, and the two held hands and walked towards the door together.
"Xiaofan, I'm a little scared..."
Arriving in front of the gate, Yiluoxiang held Ye Bufan's hand tightly and rested her head on his shoulder, looking very nervous.
"What are you afraid of? It's a good thing to have a family together. Let's go in. Your parents are waiting for you to go back."
Ye Bufan patted her shoulder and opened the door.
What catches the eye is a four-story villa building. In the middle of the courtyard is a large locust tree with lush branches. The entire courtyard looks quiet and elegant.
Seeing the familiar scenery in the yard, Yi Luoxiang choked up again: "Xiao Fan, I grew up under that big locust tree. At that time, my father often held me and told stories..."
Ye Bufan shook her hand hard: "Okay, stop crying and go in quickly."
"Um!"
Yi Luoxiang nodded, then plucked up the courage and shouted to the villa building: "Dad, Mom, I'm back..."
"Who is it? What are you shouting for?"
A young man in his 30s, wearing bright red pajamas, walked out of the villa building with an impatient look on his face.
Then he saw Yiluoxiang, and his face instantly showed a look of shock, even a little frightened.
"You...you...are..."
"Cousin, I'm Xiaoxiang, by the way, why are you at my house?"
The young man in front of me is Yi Pengfei, the son of Uncle Yi Luoxiang. He rarely came to his home in the past, but I don’t know why he is here today.
After the shock, Yi Pengfei squeezed out a look of excitement on his face.
But Ye Bufan could tell that this guy was obviously just pretending, and he had no intention of being happy about Yiluoxiang's return.
"Cousin, why are you at my house?"
Yiluoxiang asked again. In her impression, her father did not have a good impression of this lazy nephew.
Yi Pengfei said: "That's it. Didn't you suddenly disappear? My parents were afraid that my uncle would be too lonely, so they asked me to come over and accompany them more often."
"Oh!" Iroka didn't think much about it. What she was most anxious about now was to see her parents. She asked as she walked into the room, "Where are my parents? Are they at home? Are you okay now?"
"Uh... Xiaoxiang, what a coincidence that you came back. My uncle just went to the company for a meeting."
"What about my mother?"
"Well, my eldest aunt also went with me."
"My mother went too? My mother usually doesn't care about company affairs, right?"
Seeing Yi Luoxiang's surprised look, Yi Pengfei quickly explained, "It's like this. After you left for so many years, the uncle was heartbroken and his health has never been good, so the uncle has been with him to take care of him."
"I'm sorry for them."
Hearing that her father was in poor health, Yi Luoxiang fell into self-blame again and did not notice the strange look on Yi Pengfei's expression.
"Xiaoxiang, hurry up and sit inside. Where have you been all these years? Why did you suddenly disappear?"
Yi Pengfei enthusiastically let the two people into the room.
"This is a long story. Let's talk about it later when we have time."
Regarding her own affairs, Yiluoxiang didn't want to explain to her cousin any more.
Yi Pengfei asked: "Who is this Xiaoxiang? Is it your boyfriend?"
"Um!"
Yiluoxiang hummed softly, and then secretly glanced at Ye Bufan, with shyness on her cheeks.
From the moment she received the inheritance from the Dragon Concubine Palace, she and the Dragon King were destined to be married. However, the two had just met and their relationship was not that close.
"Oh! Where can my brother-in-law do his job?"
Ye Bufan said calmly: "I am a doctor, a Chinese medicine practitioner."
"The doctor is good."
As Yi Pengfei said this, a look of contempt flashed in his eyes, and the trace of worry in his heart also dissipated.
Originally, it seemed to him that Yiluoxiang must have been with this young man since he had not returned for three years.
If the other party were from a wealthy family, or a young man, he would have to be more careful, but he was just a little doctor and would not pose any threat to him at all. He didn't even bother to ask his name.
Yiluoxiang said: "Cousin, when will my parents come back?"
"Uncle and the others are in a meeting, and I can't get through the phone. How about I send a message and ask the secretary to notify you that you are back. I believe they will be back soon."
"Xiaoxiang, brother-in-law, seeing how happy I am, I forgot to make tea for you. Wait a minute, I will make tea for you right now."
After Yi Pengfei finished speaking, he hurriedly went to make tea for the two of them. Yi Luoxiang looked at the facilities in the room with a look of nostalgia in his eyes.
From the moment she walked in, her heart was in a mess, and she was far less perceptive than usual.
Only Ye Bufan looked at Yi Pengfei, with a cold look in his eyes.
"Xiaoxiang, brother-in-law, the tea is ready. Try it. This is the latest Biluochun."
Yi Pengfei said and brought two cups of hot tea to the two of them.
Yiluoxiang immediately picked up the tea cup. She was not particularly thirsty, but she came back from outside and wanted to taste the tea at home.
Seeing that she was about to drink tea, Yi Pengfei looked over intently, with expectation and fierceness in his eyes.
"Wait a moment."
Ye Bufan stretched out his hand to stop Yiluoxiang.
"What's wrong, Xiaofan?"
Iroka immediately stopped what she was doing and put down the tea cup.
"It's okay. Such good tea must be appreciated before drinking. Otherwise, it would be a waste of good tea."
Having said this, Ye Bufan turned to look at Yi Pengfei, "Are you right?"
"Yes, my brother-in-law is right."
Yi Pengfei nodded repeatedly, looking a little unnaturally flustered.
"Then let me tell you." Ye Bufan picked up the tea cup, blew on it, and smelled the aroma of the tea, and then said, "This tea is good, it is indeed the latest Biluochun.
The Hedinghong is also well made and the portion is quite substantial.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yiluoxiang's expression suddenly changed. She had no doubts about Ye Bufan's words, which proved that the other party had poisoned the tea.
At this moment, she put aside the complicated emotions she had just returned home and looked at Yi Pengfei with cold eyes.
