Ye Qing dragged her luggage and boarded the plane to go home that very night.
But interestingly, the more anxious she was to go home, the more she delayed it. The plane was delayed due to uncontrollable snowstorms, so Ye Qing waited at the airport for the flight to take off until six in the morning the next day.
After a three-hour flight and a half-hour taxi ride, she finally arrived in front of the Family Ye villa at ten in the morning.
Standing in front of the villa, Ye Qing looked at the villa that she hadn't set foot in for more than ten years. She thought about her miserable life in her previous life because of her willfulness, and her nose turned sour.
In this life, she would definitely lead a better life than Ye Zhen!
There was the sound of car horns on the asphalt road in front of the villa. Ye Qing hurriedly moved to the side and saw three cars stop in front of the Family Ye villa.
The villa door opened, and a man in a wheelchair was pushed out. Behind him were her parents, whom she hadn't seen in more than ten years.
Ye Qing's smile froze at the corner of her mouth. The word "disbelief" was written all over her face.
Lu Beichuan?
Why was he here? Why was he awake? At this time... shouldn't he be in a vegetative state, lying in bed receiving treatment?
Why did he wake up half a month early?
Before Ye Qing could react, she saw Ye Zhen walk out of the villa and hand a suit jacket to Lu Beichuan. Lu Beichuan said something, and Ye Zhen personally helped Lu Beichuan put on the suit jacket. Seeing that his tie was crooked, she helped him tie it properly.
No one saw it, but Ye Qing saw it. When Ye Zhen helped Lu Beichuan put on the suit jacket and tie, Lu Beichuan's eyes and gaze were all on Ye Zhen.
And the way Lu Beichuan looked at Ye Zhen was exactly the same as the way Lu Beichuan looked at Ye Zhen in the backseat of the Bentley in her previous life.
How was that possible...
Ye Qing watched in disbelief as they got into the car and left. As they drove off, she hid behind a trash can in a panic.
She clearly remembered that Lu Beichuan was supposed to wake up half a month later. Why was it half a month earlier now?
What exactly happened?
Ye Qing came out from behind the trash can and shouted at her parents, who were standing at the entrance of the villa and preparing to enter the house, "Dad! Mom! "
Father Ye and Mother Ye followed the voice and looked in the direction of Ye Qing.
"Qingqing!" Mother Ye was very emotional. She walked quickly to Ye Qing and hugged Ye Qing with trembling hands. She cried, "You child! Do you know how worried I was about you?! "
Ye Qing hugged her Mother Ye back. "Mom, I'm sorry … It's my fault. I'm sorry."
"Where did you go?! Do you know how long I've been looking for you?! "
Mother Ye hadn't slept well since Ye Qing eloped. She worried day and night about whether Ye Qing was eating or sleeping well. She worried about whether Ye Qing was being bullied. Now that Ye Qing was alive and well in front of her, it felt like a dream.
The mother and daughter hugged and cried for a while. Father Ye walked over and looked around. "That's enough. If you have anything to say, say it at home. Don't you feel embarrassed on the road?!"
"Right, let's go home. Qingqing, come home with Mom!" Mother Ye wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and held Ye Qing's hand tightly as they walked into the villa.
As soon as she entered the house, the familiar furnishings and decorations made her eyes redden instantly.
Mother Ye assumed that she had been wronged outside, so she kept comforting her. "Qingqing, don't cry. We're already home. It's okay now."
Father Ye was exasperated at the side and reprimanded, "Cry? You still have the cheek to cry?! You still have the cheek to cry after doing such a shameful thing like eloping! Didn't you say that if you didn't agree to marry that rascal, you would never come back? What? That rascal doesn't want you anymore? "
"That's enough. Our daughter is already home. Stop talking!"
"I'll stop talking? Look at the things that your precious daughter has done. Which one of them isn't a disgrace to our Family Ye? "
Ye Qing lowered her head and listened. Her eyes were red from crying. She raised her head and looked at Father Ye with teary eyes. "Dad, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me."
Ye Qing had always been their pride. She had always been stubborn and never admitted defeat. They thought that she would fight to the end, but halfway through, she lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
Father Ye couldn't say anything else about this apology. He only said angrily to Mother Ye, "You're spoiling her!"
"I spoiled my daughter! So what if I spoiled her? " As Mother Ye said this, her heart ached as she looked at her daughter who had lost a lot of weight. "Qingqing, Mom has thought it through in the past month. Mom won't force you anymore. You can marry whoever you want. Mom won't stop you anymore. As long as you're happy and happy, that's all that matters."
"Mom …"
"Where's that boy? Why didn't he come back with you? "
Father Ye snorted coldly from the side. "I don't think that man is a responsible person either!"
Ye Qing choked and said, "I broke up with him."
Father Ye and Mother Ye were both stunned. "Broke up? What happened? Why did you break up? "
Mother Ye still remembered how this girl had gone on a hunger strike and eloped in order to be with that Lin Zhan. She was so determined to cut off all means of retreat. Why did she break up with him in less than a month?
Ye Qing forced a smile. "Mom, let's not talk about him first. I saw Ye Zhen outside just now. Also, who was that man in the wheelchair?"
At the mention of this, Mother Ye's anger flared up again. She poked Ye Qing's forehead and said, "Oh, you. If I had known that you would break up with that man so quickly, I would never have let you elope! That's Lu Beichuan from the Lu Family. A year ago, he was in a vegetative state after a car accident. A month ago, Old Master Lu came to visit and said that he had received advice from an expert. He wanted you to marry Lu Beichuan to ward off bad luck so that Lu Beichuan could wake up as soon as possible. "
At this point, Mother Ye sighed. "The Lu Family has such a good family background. How could our family match up to them? Although Lu Beichuan was in a vegetative state at the time, the doctor said that he would wake up one day. But what about you? You threw away Mrs. Lu's status for a poor boy! "
"Then … what's going on with Ye Zhen?"
"What do you mean 'what's going on'?" Father Ye snorted coldly. "Your sister is much more sensible than you. She was willing to marry that vegetative person for the sake of our Family Ye. But your sister is also lucky. A month after the marriage, Lu Beichuan woke up."
Mother Ye glanced at him. "What do you mean lucky? That was originally Qing Qing's. Now Mrs. Lu is called Ye Qing, not Ye Zhen! Qing Qing, back then, your dad's company was having some difficulties, and you eloped with that boy. We had no choice but to marry Ye Zhen to the Lu Family in your name. You … don't be angry. Fortunately, it's Ye Zhen. Otherwise, how could our family still be living in this villa? "
Ye Qing smiled and said, "Mom, why would I blame Sister? I understand. But, isn't this too unfair to Little Sister? "
"What's so unfair about it? Being able to sit in Mrs. Lu's position is enough for her to wake up laughing in the middle of the night!"
Ye Qing smiled and comforted Mother Ye. "Mom, you can't say that. At the end of the day, this is my fault. If I hadn't eloped with Lin Zhan, she wouldn't have been forced to marry into the Lu Family. You definitely didn't ask Ye Zhen if she was willing, right?"
Father Ye and Mother Ye were silent for a moment when they heard this.
"Ye Zhen and I are twin sisters. How could I not understand Ye Zhen? She looks quiet and doesn't say much, but she's actually more sensitive than anyone else. You forced her to marry someone, so she must have a grudge against you. "
Mother Ye was impatient. She said in an indignant tone, "So what?! Back then, I risked my life to give birth to her and almost lost my life! The Family Ye raised her for so many years. Can't she repay the Family Ye a little? Moreover, many people want to sit in Mrs. Lu's position but can't! "
"Mom, don't be angry. I'm not worried about that. I'm worried that with Ye Zhen's character and her resentment, she won't get along well with others in the Lu Family. When the time comes and she offends the Lu Family, won't the Lu Family still blame it on our Family Ye?"
Ye Qing's words reminded Mother Ye.
Yesterday, Ye Zhen had told her that Mrs. Lu didn't like her.
She hesitated and said, "But I think Lu Beichuan's attitude towards your sister isn't that cold."
"Mom, of course I have to pretend in front of you. Don't tell me you think that you're really part of the family just because you're married into the Lu Family?"
Father Ye couldn't help but feel nervous.
Yesterday, he wanted to chat with Lu Beichuan while he was drunk. However, when he was alone with Lu Beichuan, Lu Beichuan didn't give him any face at all. It seemed that Lu Beichuan was just putting on an act in front of them.
If this went on, how could the Family Ye get any small benefits from the Lu Family in the future?!
"What … what should we do?"
Ye Qing sighed and said seriously, "I'll go."
"You'll go?"
"I'll get my sister back. I'll bear the consequences of my own mistakes!"
***
In the speeding Bentley, Ye Zhen nestled in the back seat and looked drowsily at the rapidly passing scenery outside the window.
Actually, it wasn't like she had never woken up this early before. The Lu Family had a rule of waking up early. When Lu Beichuan was still in a vegetative state, she was ordered to wake up at 7 a.m. every day to clean and wipe Lu Beichuan.
But lately, it was strange. She didn't have to wake up early to wipe Lu Beichuan's body, but she felt even more tired.
Ye Zhen yawned loudly.
Lu Beichuan, who was reading some documents, glanced at her and asked, "Sleepy?"
Ye Zhen shook her head. "I'm just a little carsick."
Lu Beichuan handed her the soft pillow behind his waist. "It's still early when we get home. Sleep for a while."
Ye Zhen didn't stand on ceremony. She put the pillow on the seat and slept with her upper body on the back seat. Her body was bent, and it was a very uncomfortable position. Ye Zhen frowned slightly, and it took a long time for her to calm down.
Lu Beichuan took advantage of Ye Zhen's sleeping state to gently move her legs onto his lap. He took off his jacket and covered her with it. He instructed the chauffeur to drive more slowly and steadily so that Ye Zhen could sleep more comfortably in the narrow space of the car.
Ye Zhen slept very comfortably in the car. When Lu Beichuan woke her up to get out of the car, she was rather upset and glared angrily at Lu Beichuan.
Perhaps it was because of the bumpy ride, but Ye Zhen felt very tired for the past two days. Her entire body exuded a tired aura. She originally thought that it would be over after a good rest, but for the next few days, she was still the same. At night, she fell into a deep sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. In the morning, she couldn't wake up no matter how hard she tried. After being forcefully woken up, she was sleepy the whole day. Her condition was even worse than that of the disabled Lu Beichuan.
In the morning, Ye Zhen sat at the dining table listlessly. Mother Lu looked at Ye Zhen worriedly. "Are you sick? Let William take a look at you. "
Ye Zhen forced a smile. "Thank you for your concern, Mom. I'm fine. I've just been a little tired recently." She yawned as she spoke.
Lu Beichuan looked at her again and said thoughtfully, "Let William take a look at you."
A wave of anger suddenly flared up.
I already said that I'm fine. Why are you so annoying?!
