Siheyuan: I have a mental illness

Chapter 177 Lou Xiao'e's Thoughts

After hearing Han Yuying's words, Yu Haitang's lively eyes rolled around, and then quickly changed into a lovable look. She pleaded tenderly to Yu Li: "Sister, please let me go first, okay~" Her coquettish tone made people feel pity for her, like a docile little lamb.

Although Yu Li got on Ye Fan's car first, she felt a little guilty towards Haitang in her heart regarding matters related to Ye Fan, so she had no choice but to nod and agree, and replied softly: "Okay, then you and Section Chief Ye should go to meet your parents first! Anyway, it's only a day or two earlier or later."

After getting Yu Li's approval, Yu Haitang smiled happily, as excited as a happy little bird, blinking her beautiful eyes constantly, and at the same time, she did not forget to send her love to Ye Fan. At this time, Ye Fan was happily having dinner with four other women. Everyone was enjoying the food and talking freely. The atmosphere was harmonious and joyful.

However, at this moment, there was a rich and distinguished young lady who was alone in front of the table full of delicious food, with a sad face and sighing. This young lady was Lou Xiao'e. She was sitting in front of the table in a trance, staring at the dazzling array of dishes on the table with empty eyes. She looked lost, as if her thoughts had already flown away to the sky. As for what she was thinking about? The answer was self-evident - apart from Ye Fan, it would be difficult to find another person who could make her so worried.

Since the encounter with Ye Fan that day, Lou Xiao'e has been like a lost soul, thinking about the man named Ye Fan day and night, and worrying about him. Time flies, and in more than a month, she has become increasingly haggard. Her originally round, lovely, delicate and charming face has now become obviously thinner, which makes people feel distressed.

Lou Bancheng stared at his beloved daughter Lou Xiao'e and couldn't help but sigh heavily. He asked worriedly, "Xiao'e, what's wrong with you? It's been so long, and you're always so depressed and listless all day long."

When Lou Xiao'e heard what her father said, she felt even more distressed. That extremely hateful guy didn't even tell her his name, leaving her with no way of finding his whereabouts.

However, when faced with Lou Bancheng's concerned inquiries, Lou Xiao'e just silently cast her eyes towards her father, gently opened her red lips, and said slowly: "Dad, it's okay, it's just that my daughter has a poor appetite recently." After that, she gently put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, and then said: "Dad, Mom, please enjoy your meal, I will go back to my room to rest first."

After saying this, Lou Xiao'e didn't even look at her parents, dragged her heavy feet, and staggered towards her boudoir. Her back looked extremely lonely and desolate, as if she was carrying endless sorrow and sadness.

Lou Bancheng was extremely anxious as he looked at his daughter who was still so depressed, but he was at a loss like a headless fly and had no idea how to solve the current predicament.

He also searched everywhere, trying to figure out why his daughter became like this, and finally found out that it was because of a man. It is normal for a woman to fall in love with a man, but what puzzled Lou Bancheng was that his daughter had only met the man once, and she didn't even know his name.

Lou Bancheng also tried to ask someone to find out who Ye Fan was, but due to the lack of clues and unclear information, no one could understand who he was referring to. Time passed quietly, day after day, and in the blink of an eye, nearly a month had passed.

Seeing his beloved daughter becoming increasingly haggard and thin, Lou Bancheng was heartbroken and anxious. But facing such a situation, he really felt helpless and had no idea how to find the man who was deeply hidden in his daughter's heart and made her dream.

Lou Xiao'e walked into her room with heavy steps, as if all the strength in her body had been drained away. She sat silently beside the bed and took out a piece of paper from the drawer. On the paper was a lifelike portrait of a human face. If you look closely, you can clearly recognize that the person in the painting is Ye Fan.

Lou Xiao'e gently held the paper in her palm, as if she was holding the most precious treasure in the world. She carefully put it close to her chest, feeling the faint warmth of the paper, as if it was Ye Fan's warm embrace. Gradually, she closed her eyes, and two lines of tears silently slid down her cheeks, dripping onto the painting in her hand, creating a faint stain.

At the same time, Lou Xiao'e's mother, Tan, was looking at her husband, Lou Bancheng, worriedly. She lowered her voice and said, "Master, don't you think it's time to find a marriage for our Xiao'e? We can't just watch her become so depressed!" Hearing what his wife said, Lou Bancheng couldn't help but sigh, his tone full of helplessness and pity: "Alas, can't you see that our daughter already has someone in her heart? If we matchmake her with someone now, wouldn't it be like asking for her life?"

After hearing what Lou Bancheng said, Tan's face was also full of worry. She lamented repeatedly: "But if we continue to leave it alone, how can we bear to see Xiao'e become more and more haggard?" Lou Bancheng frowned and thought for a moment, finally said: "Forget it, you accompany Xiao'e to go out for a walk later. Firstly, you can try your luck and maybe you can really meet that person; secondly, it will help Xiao'e relax and change her mood." His eyes fell on the window, his eyes full of worry and expectation for his daughter's future.

After Ye Fan accompanied the four girls for dinner, he did not break his promise but followed them out of the courtyard and strolled on the street.

Of course, Ye Fan and Han Yuying walked together, and Qin Huairu and Yu Li walked together. But they were not too far apart, just a few steps ahead.

Before he knew it, Ye Fan accompanied the four girls to the door of Xu Huizhen's tavern. Looking at the sign of Xu Huizhen's tavern, Ye Fan seemed to remember that he hadn't met Lou Xiaoe for nearly a month.

At the same time, I was wondering how Lou Xiao'e was doing now. After all, the last encounter lasted only a few minutes.

As for Xu Huizhen, Ye Fan completely forgot about her.

Han Yuying looked at Ye Fan who was standing still, curiously followed Ye Fan's gaze to look at Xu Huizhen's tavern, and asked with a smile: "Brother Ye Fan, do you want to drink? If Brother Ye Fan wants to drink, Yuying will accompany you tonight."

Ye Fan looked at Han Yuying and smiled faintly: "It's okay, I just thought of someone."

Han Yuying narrowed her eyes and asked, "Brother Ye Fan, are you thinking of a certain woman?"

Ye Fan was stunned when he heard this. He thought to himself, "Oh no, how could I say what was in my heart so easily?" He quickly said, "How can I think of other women when you are around?"

Just as Ye Fan finished speaking, an untimely voice sounded.
