When He Chaoqun left, apart from the two elders, a large group of people from the Gu family sent him off to the pier.
He pulled an 18-inch suitcase and carried a backpack. Just like when he first arrived, he was confident and unrestrained. When he smiled, his dimples were revealed. "Sister, I'm leaving. If you regret it, feel free to contact me. I'll immediately bring the betrothal gifts and a matchmaker to the mountain villa. I'll bring you a palanquin with eight people to marry you."
Ye Huanyan punched him on the shoulder. "You don't have any other skills other than talking nonsense. Be careful that you won't be single in the future."
He pretended to be in pain and squatted down with a hand on his chest. "Aiyo, I'm hurt. Heart disease. It hurts so much. I can't walk. Quick, call the ambulance …"
Everyone laughed. Ye Huanyan lifted his leg and kicked him. "Little brat, did I hit your heart? It was the other side. Are you mentally retarded? "
"You hit my body, but it hurts my heart."
After the joke was over, He Chaoqun squatted down and did a fist bump with Naonnao.
"Uncle Xiaoqun, the nine consecutive rings are too simple. It's very boring. I've dismantled the robot bird, but it can only transform twice when assembled. What should I do?"
"Let me see."
Naonnao placed the little robot bird, which was the size of a fingernail, in his palm and stared at it without blinking.
"The parts are worn out and there's a problem with the switch. You assembled it correctly. I'll bring you a better one next time."
"When is the next time? You adults are always so perfunctory."
"Oh, you know how to be perfunctory?" He Chaoqun looked at the couple meaningfully. "Looks like you've been perfunctory with our Little Young Master all this time."
"…"
"Wait until your parents' wedding. I'll bring you a big robot bird as a toy."
Naonnao nodded in agreement.
Ji Xiaoyue and Gu Sinian had reconciled thanks to him, so the couple was very grateful to him. Gu Sinian didn't say anything, but Ji Xiaoyue was a little reluctant to part with him. "Don't be sad, Xiaoqun. It's not your fault that you like older people. You just didn't find the right person. I know a few friends who are a little older than Yan Yan. I'll introduce them to you someday."
He Chaoqun's face paled. "Don't, I'm just kidding. I'm leaving, the ship is here …"
"Hey, keep in touch. My sisters are crying piteously for food after their divorce!"
He Chaoqun didn't even look back as he pulled his suitcase and jumped onto the ship like a gust of wind. He waved his hand and disappeared into the fog on the sea.
During dinner, Ye Huanyan tactfully mentioned that she was preparing to return to China.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? How many days have you been back? "
"The movie is almost done editing. I have to go back and take a look at it. If there are any problems, I have to quickly change it. I still have to leave some time to submit it for review and set the file."
"Can't Gu Chi do these things?"
Wen Yi was a little unwilling to give up. "It's fine if you're shooting the movie yourself, but it's already done. These small things can be left to Gu Chi to handle."
"Mom …"
Ye Huanyan was a little helpless and secretly glanced at Gu Heng.
Gu Heng coughed dryly and said in a deep voice, "Why are you stopping our daughter from doing what she wants to do? Being a director and screenwriter is her career. Look at you, aren't you busy mining and looking for raw materials for gems all these years? I'm not stopping you. "
Wen Yi pursed her lips and knew that she was in the wrong. She muttered, "But I'm still mining in my own villa. It's not 108,000 miles away from home."
"Mom, if you miss me, I can fly back at any time. Why do you say it as if I won't come back for a year?"
Ji Xiaoyue also tried to persuade Wen Yi. Only then did her expression soften a little. "Then Ling Han can stay."
Ye Huanyan's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She looked at her mother in disbelief.
On the contrary, Gu Sinian looked like he understood everything. It was as if he already knew his mother's character like the back of his hand.
"Why … why would he stay?"
"To help me mine? And to fish. "
Wen Yi's expression was matter-of-fact.
Ye Huanyan exclaimed, "There are so many gems in Zhen Bao Pavilion. Yesterday, Ah Ben in the kitchen told me that there was enough fish to eat for a week … Mom, what are you trying to do …"
Wen Yi raised her eyebrows. "Good gems are one in a million. The gems in Zhen Bao Pavilion are very ordinary. Don't you want me to personally make the jewelry for your wedding? It's one in a million and one of a kind?"
Ye Huanyan wanted to refute, but Ji Xiaoyue beat her to it. "Mom, do you mean that you agree to Ling Han and Yan Yan's wedding?"
Ye Huanyan finally came back to her senses. She turned her head and pondered Wen Yi's words. She looked at her with an inquisitive expression. "Mom …"
Wen Yi pursed her lips and looked indifferent. "I didn't say that. I still need to think about it for a while. But since you're in such a hurry to leave, I'm sure you won't be able to find the gems and I won't be able to eat the fish. I won't consider it."
"Look for it. He'll stay to look for it with you. I'll stay too."
Ye Huanyan instantly put on a smile. She eagerly picked up a piece of braised fish and put it into Wen Yi's bowl. "Mom, eat more fish. It's good for your skin."
Wen Yi's sudden change in attitude had a lot to do with Gu Heng. It was common sense that the conversation between peers would be more valued and understood by the other party. Therefore, no matter how much Ye Huanyan said, it was not as good as her father's help.
After that day, Ye Huanyan never mentioned that she wanted Ling Han to rest. She couldn't wait for Ling Han to help find the gems that Wen Yi wanted in the mine as soon as possible. She also couldn't wait for Ling Han to pile up a mountain of fish that Ling Han went out to sea. It would be best if he could fill up the entire freezer of the Four Seasons Villa so that Wen Yi could eat to her heart's content.
With Gu Heng's tacit approval, although Ling Han still lived in North Court, Ye Huanyan began to go in and out casually. She rarely returned to her own place and stayed in North Court every night.
Late at night, in the study of East Court, Gu Heng was practicing calligraphy. She had just written a word and her handwriting was very natural and unrestrained.
Wen Yi came in with a bowl of soup and placed it on the coffee table. "The kitchen has made tremella soup. Drink some."
Gu Heng put down the writing brush and looked up. "You're in a good mood these days."
Wen Yi smiled. "You've seen through me. My seventh brother sent me a ruby two days ago. I plan to use it to make Yan Yan's jewelry. I tell you, there won't be a more suitable gem than this. I can start work in a while."
Gu Heng walked to the coffee table and sat down. She took the tremella soup and pretended to ask casually, "Yan Yan's jewelry? For the wedding? "
"Of course, I should be able to finish it in half a year. I haven't exercised for a long time and my hands are rusty."
Hearing this, Gu Heng glanced at her. "Since you've found a suitable gem, why do you still let Ling Han go to the mine?"
Wen Yi's face changed and she was choked. After a while, she straightened her neck and said, "Isn't it because I want to see if I can find a better gem?"
"If there were any gems in the mine, they would have been dug out by you in the past ten years."
Gu Heng glanced at her as if she knew what she was thinking. "You want Yan Yan to stay in the villa with him for a while. In fact, you can tell me directly. Do you think I won't agree?"
