Shi Ye didn't notice Gu Jinlan behind him, and continued to ask Qing Li: "What's wrong with you?"

"Master Shi is so interested in the things between us girls, do you want to be sisters with us?"

When Shi Ye heard Gu Jinlan's voice, his body froze.

"Ahem!" He coughed lightly, turned around and looked at Gu Jinlan, and said gently, "Why did you wake up? Was it because the temperature in the airport was too low and you woke up from the cold?"

Gu Jinlan looked at him leisurely.

Talking nonsense.

If she doesn't wake up, he will find out her true colors.

Shi Ye is a sinister and treacherous person, while Qing Li is a brainless and outspoken person.

After being tricked by Shi Ye, Qing Li would probably explain everything about his ancestors for eighteen generations to Shi Ye in detail.

Gu Jinlan resisted the urge to pull Shi Ye's ears.

Sensing the coldness in her eyes, Shi Ye quickly stood up and said, "I'll ask them to turn up the air conditioning."

Looking at his hurriedly leaving back, Gu Jinlan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He actually feels guilty?

This is unlike his previous character.

Gu Jinlan sat down opposite Qingli and asked, "What did you talk about?"

Qingli finally retracted his gaze from the porthole and quickly explained: "You saw it, he came to talk to me, I didn't take the initiative to provoke him."

"What on earth did you talk about?"

"We didn't talk about anything. We just started and you came." Qingli winked at Gu Jinlan, "Don't worry, I won't let anything slip. I'm smart."

Gu Jinlan shook his head helplessly.

In terms of scheming and brains, Qingli is just a kindergarten kid in front of Shi Ye.

Qingli asked doubtfully, "I heard about the Tenth Master of Haicheng when I was in Country M before, and since you didn't let me see him before, I thought he was very scary."

"After talking face to face today, I feel that he is not as scary as the rumors say."

"Although he looks arrogant, his gestures are quite elegant, not as crazy as me."

Gu Jinlan smiled.

Otherwise, how can we say that Qingli is simple-minded? He was deceived by Shi Ye's appearance.

Shi Ye's elegance and dignity are engraved in his bones.

What makes him scary is that he is moody and people can't see through his deep eyes.

Qingli moved closer to Gu Jinlan, his eyes sparkling, "But Lan, your cheap husband is really handsome!"

"So damn handsome! I just took a closer look at that face, wow~ 360 degrees without blind spots!"

The curve of Gu Jinlan's lips slowly drooped.

Seeing this, Qingli stepped back and hurriedly explained: "Don't worry! I just admire him and I won't have any bad thoughts about him."

"Let's talk business. How is Shu Yi?" Gu Jinlan asked.

"Let it go."

"Really?"

"Why would I lie to you? She's not fun at all."

When Qing Li mentioned Shu Yi, he looked disgusted and said ashamedly: "It's a pity that I didn't help you find out anything useful. Her stress reaction at that time..."

Qingli never shows mercy to normal people.

But if the other person shows signs of mental problems, it will remind her of her past self and her dead companions.

Gu Jinlan said: "It's quite useful. I have asked Aye to check Shu Yi's stepbrother."

She believed that by following this clue, she would be able to find valuable information.

Her intuition told her that the secret of Shu Yi and the person behind her would soon come to light.

-

After the plane landed in Haicheng, Gu Jinlan did not allow Qingli to follow them any further and agreed to contact them again in a few days when they were ready to go to Country M.

Shi Ye asked Xiao Li to take Xia Nian and her son to his other residence in Haicheng.

Xia Ni'an didn't want the Fan family to know about her and her child. If she let them go back to the manor with her, the news would easily leak out.

Butler Xue was already waiting at the gate of the manor's main house.

Seeing Shi Ye getting off the car, he hurriedly came forward and asked, "Master, did this trip go smoothly?"

Shi Ye said: "It was a close call."

Seeing the wound on Shi Ye's face, Butler Xue's eyes suddenly widened, "How did you get hurt?!"

"Just a scratch."

Shi Ye quickly took Gu Jinlan's hand and walked into the house, not wanting Butler Xue to continue staring at him.

Fortunately, the long sleeves and long pants covered the wounds on his body, otherwise Uncle Xue’s wounds would have been very exaggerated.

Butler Xue followed closely beside the two of them, "Did the young master encounter any other obstacles on the way?"

Hearing this, Shi Ye paused, "Other obstacles? What do you mean?"

Butler Xue avoided looking at him, "I... was just asking casually."

He was not sure whether the old lady had sent people to the southwest to prevent the young lady from retrieving her child.

Afraid that his good intentions might lead to more harm than good, he did not dare to tell the young master.

I thought that even if the old lady really wanted to stop it, she would never do anything to hurt the young master and the young mistress.

But seeing that the young master had bruises on his face, he couldn't help but suspect that the old lady had already taken action.

Shi Ye lowered his eyes slightly, and probably guessed something from the look in Butler Xue's eyes that showed he didn't dare to look directly at him.

His expression turned a little colder. He glanced at Butler Xue and took Gu Jinlan upstairs.

The couple returned to the bedroom and were about to change into comfortable home clothes when there was a knock on the door.

Butler Xue's voice came from outside, "Master, the old lady just called and asked the young lady to go back to the old house."

Gu Jinlan had just walked to the door of the cloakroom and stopped when she heard the voice.

Shi Ye opened the bedroom door and frowned as he looked at Butler Xue, "Grandma knows that we are going to the southwest?"

Butler Xue nodded.

Shi Ye asked again: "What do you think?"

"Um……"

"You're the one who said we'd come back today?"

"No!" Butler Xue shook his head and said, "The old lady just called me and asked me to inform the young lady to come over. It's obvious that she already knew you were home."

"Grandma only called Lanlan, didn't she call me?"

"No."

Shi Ye had a vague sense of foreboding in his heart.

Grandma is a little abnormal...

Gu Jinlan responded to Butler Xue from inside the house, "Uncle Xue, I'll be there after I change my clothes."

After saying that, he went into the cloakroom.

Shi Ye lowered his voice and asked Butler Xue, "Does grandma have any opinion about Lan Lan? You just asked me downstairs if I encountered other obstacles. Are you referring to grandma?"

"No, I really don't know. Master, I'll be busy now."

Butler Xue said this hurriedly and turned away.

Shi Ye came to the cloakroom and saw that Gu Jinlan had already changed her clothes.

"Wait a minute, I'll go with you." He walked to the closet and took out a matte black long-sleeved shirt.

Gu Jinlan said: "You should have a good rest. I can go alone."

Grandma Shi no longer contacts her alone. Even when she wants to see her, she asks Butler Xue to pass on the message and issue a notice.

She didn't know why Grandma Shi suddenly wanted to see her, but with Shi Ye following around, it would definitely be inconvenient for her to talk to Grandma Shi.

She didn't want Shi Ye to have an unpleasant relationship with Grandma Shi because of her.

"I'll wait with you." Shi Ye took off his clothes. Because the movement was too large, the wound on his arm was affected. He gasped in pain, "Hiss~!"
