After visiting Qin Fangbin and Qin Muge, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi left the capital city the very next day!
Originally, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi had planned to visit Dongnan City, but due to Ye Xunhuan’s few days delay in Yangcheng, they had to cancel the trip to Dongnan City.
After all, it was already work time, and as the CEO of Huangtu Group, Qiu Ruoxi couldn’t stay away forever!
If it were before, Qin Muge and Mei Hanqing would be in the company, but now that both are absent, if Qiu Ruoxi doesn’t return, something might go wrong.
Recently, Qiu Ruoxi has been handling work remotely.
After flying back to Jiangzhong City, Qiu Ruoxi went straight to the office instead of heading home.
Ye Xunhuan understood this because Qiu Ruoxi is a workaholic, a strong woman, and going straight to the office upon returning suits her personality.
But Ye Xunhuan went home.
When Ye Xunhuan got home, Wang Ma and Wang Zilin were sitting on the living room sofa watching TV!
Ye Xunhuan’s sudden return first startled Wang Ma and Wang Zilin, but soon they were filled with joy.
"Son-in-law, why didn’t you notify us of your return in advance?"
Wang Ma stood up from the sofa and walked toward Ye Xunhuan. She seemed very excited and happy, and her eyes were filled with warmth.
It was as if a mother saw her son unexpectedly returning, displaying all her maternal instincts.
"I wanted to surprise you, Wang Ma!" Ye Xunhuan said with a smile.
"Oh, where’s Miss? Didn’t she come back?" Wang Ma looked behind Ye Xunhuan for a long time but didn’t see Qiu Ruoxi, so she asked.
"Oh, Ruoxi is back, but she went to the company!" Ye Xunhuan shrugged helplessly and said, "You know Ruoxi’s temperament; returning now and not going to the office would be strange!"
"Miss is really reluctant to take even a short break." Wang Ma sighed softly.
Just after speaking, Wang Ma seemed to remember something and quickly said, "Son-in-law, have a seat and rest!"
"No need, Wang Ma!"
"Son-in-law, are you hungry? Want me to cook some noodles for you?"
"No need!" Ye Xunhuan gently refused, "I’ve already eaten, but please sit down first, I have something for you!"
"What is it?" Wang Ma looked at Ye Xunhuan with curiosity.
"Ruoxi brought gifts for you and Zilin from the capital." Ye Xunhuan said, full of smiles, "She went to work and asked me to bring them to you first!"
"You two kids, what gifts do you need to bring for me!" Wang Ma said with a stern face, "Isn’t this just wasting money?"
Although she said that, Ye Xunhuan could tell that Wang Ma was actually quite happy inside.
Ye Xunhuan smiled, "Just a little money, it’s nothing!"
With that, Ye Xunhuan brought out the gifts Qiu Ruoxi had prepared earlier.
Qiu Ruoxi prepared a pair of jade bracelets for Wang Ma and a necklace and earrings for Wang Zilin!
These items were bought by Qiu Ruoxi and Qin Rumeng together while Ye Xunhuan was in Yangcheng, during their trip to the capital.
Having stayed with Qiu Ruoxi, Wang Ma was well-informed. Upon seeing the bracelets, necklace, and earrings, she immediately said, "Son-in-law, this... this is too valuable, we can’t accept them!"
"Wang Ma, just take them." Ye Xunhuan said softly, "What’s so valuable about them?"
"Son-in-law..."
"Wang Ma, if you don’t want them, you can just throw them away later." Ye Xunhuan said very seriously, "Anyway, these are meant for you!"
"But Zilin’s needs to be her decision!"
"Brother Ye, I..."
"You can’t refuse!" Ye Xunhuan said with a stern face, "This is a gift from your Brother Ye and Sister Ruoxi, you must accept it!"
Wang Ma felt that the gifts were too valuable to accept, and Wang Zilin naturally listened to her mother, but with Ye Xunhuan’s firm stance, they had no choice but to accept the gifts!
"That’s better!" Ye Xunhuan said with a smile, "Wang Ma, Zilin, you two stay at home and have fun, I need to go to the office. When Ruoxi gets off work, I need to bring her home!"
"Son-in-law, aren’t you going to rest a bit..."
"Wang Ma, it’s fine, I’m not tired!" Ye Xunhuan said softly, "I’m going upstairs to get the car keys!"
"By the way, Wang Ma, prepare something delicious tonight. I’ve missed your cooking after all these days!"
After grabbing the car keys, Ye Xunhuan left the villa and headed straight to Huangtu Group.
Once at Huangtu Group, Ye Xunhuan didn’t go looking for Qiu Ruoxi, but returned to his own office.
After all, Qiu Ruoxi had just returned to work and would definitely be busy. Going now would mean she wouldn’t have time for him, so Ye Xunhuan returned to his office.
Not long after Ye Xunhuan arrived at his office, Lin Caidie, fresh into marriage, heard someone mention that Ye Xunhuan was back at work and came to see him.
After a brief chat, Lin Caidie left.
Once Lin Caidie left, Ye Xunhuan leaned back in his chair and leisurely smoked a cigarette.
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan felt it was better to be an ordinary office worker, not having to constantly think about fights and disputes.
While he was leaning back and smoking, Longzu Bodhi suddenly walked in.
Seeing Longzu Bodhi made Ye Xunhuan’s heart skip a beat.
When planning to go to the capital, Longzu Bodhi wanted to tag along too. Ye Xunhuan refused her, but she mentioned going herself, yet Ye Xunhuan hadn’t seen or heard from her since.
Now she suddenly appeared, seemingly with an unfriendly demeanor.
"Bodhi, Happy New Year!"
"Happy my foot!" Longzu Bodhi snorted coldly, "Bastard, I asked you to take me to the capital and you didn’t. I went myself, and then you vanished, not even a single call for so many days!"
"Tell me, are you planning to deny everything after having your way with me?"
Longzu Bodhi wasted no words, directly confronting Ye Xunhuan.
Ye Xunhuan was instantly embarrassed, "My dear, I met with unexpected situations, almost didn’t survive, and had no time to contact you!"
"Don’t tell me you heard nothing about it!"
