Chapter 1562

~7 min read 1,340 words

Gu Qiuyi left, which made Ye Chen feel a bit lonely.

The courtyard at this time was quiet, the weather was still a bit cold, and looking up at the sky with few stars and a bright moon made Ye Chen sigh even more.

He had never thought that Gu Qiuyi's concert would end in this way. Recalling the old photos at the concert, Ye Chen's heart was filled with emotion and shame.

Although he had lived a hard life over the years, in the welfare home, with Tang Sihai's secret protection, he could actually be considered to have no worries about food and clothing, it's just that various material conditions were a bit hard.

But he had never thought before that during the years he suffered, Gu Qiuyi's whole family had been sparing no effort to find his whereabouts.

This sentiment alone already made him very moved, and he didn't know how to repay it, let alone that Gu Qiuyi had strictly followed the marriage contract with him for so many years, waiting for him bitterly for nearly twenty years with deep affection.

Therefore, how to repay the sentiment of the three members of the Gu family became a knot that Ye Chen couldn't untie in his heart.

The reason why he couldn't untie it was because he couldn't think of any good way at all.

After all, there was still Xiao Churan beside him, who had married him for four years and never left him.

Just when Ye Chen was sighing in his heart, Xiao Churan, wrapped in a cotton jacket and holding Ye Chen's down jacket in her hand, walked out of the villa.

She came to Ye Chen's side, gently draped the down jacket over his shoulders, and said: "Husband, why did you run outside and stand foolishly? The weather is quite cold tonight."

Ye Chen smiled and said: "It's a bit stuffy inside, I want to come out and get some air."

Xiao Churan nodded and said: "Why don't we turn off the floor heating in our house? It's already mid-March, there's no need to keep the heating on."

Ye Chen said: "Let's keep it on. It's easiest to catch a cold in this season. It's much better to have the heating on in the house."

Xiao Churan didn't insist anymore, but looked at Ye Chen and asked with concern: "Husband, why do I feel like you have something on your mind? Did you encounter any trouble?"

"No." Ye Chen said insincerely: "Around Qingming, there is a feng shui business that needs to go to Yanjing. A big family wants to invite me to help look at the feng shui of their ancestral grave, but it seems a bit tricky, and I am thinking about how to deal with it."

The reason why Ye Chen said this was, on one hand, not to let Xiao Churan think too much, and on the other hand, it just happened to give her a vaccination in advance, informing her about his going to Yanjing before Qingming Festival.

After saying these words, Ye Chen didn't feel complacent because of the two birds with one stone of an excuse. On the contrary, he felt a trace of sadness in his heart.

Ever since Tang Sihai reappeared, ever since he obtained the Nine Mysteries Heavenly Sutra, the relationship between him and Xiao Churan had been filled with more and more lies.

Although many of these lies were out of good intentions, the essence of lies could not be covered up.

At this time, Xiao Churan heard that Ye Chen was going to Yanjing to look at feng shui for others again, and she didn't doubt it, just asked him: "Husband, why did you take on feng shui work again?"

"Yes." Ye Chen said casually: "They pay a lot, so there's no reason to refuse."

As he said this, Ye Chen was afraid that Xiao Churan would repeat the same old tune, so he immediately added: "And wife, you should also know that these rich people have their own circles. If you offend people in this circle, you might be blocked by this circle, and you might even be targeted by this circle. So husband is now riding a tiger and can't get off, it's impossible to cut off all business in this area."

Xiao Churan originally did want to repeat the same old tune. According to her idea, as long as her company gradually saw improvement, Ye Chen could gradually reduce his feng shui business and try not to touch things in this area anymore.

But now hearing Ye Chen say this, she put away her set of rhetoric and said helplessly: "Husband, then you must pay more attention."

Ye Chen smiled slightly and nodded: "Don't worry, wife, I will."

Xiao Churan smiled with relief: "It's getting late, hurry back to the room and sleep."

"Okay!"

Late at night, when Ye Chen and Xiao Churan were sleeping in each other's arms, a woman walked out lightly in the huge courtyard of the Song villa.

It was already 1:30 in the morning, but Ito Nanako didn't sleep, but came to the courtyard alone, found a dry place, sat cross-legged in the courtyard, and looked up at the starry sky.

Gu Qiuyi's concert was very shocking to her, and many details made her unable to recover until now.

At the concert, she saw for the first time the devotion and courage of her idol Gu Qiuyi. At that moment, she admired Gu Qiuyi even more.

After the concert, she pondered this matter repeatedly, and always had an intuition that the Prince Charming Gu Qiuyi confessed to at the scene might be Ye Chen, whom she had loved deeply for a long time.

However, she couldn't think of any clear clues that could support this intuition of hers.

She had learned about some of Ye Chen's background, but the specific information was not that detailed. She only knew that Ye Chen had been an orphan since he was a child, had been growing up in the Jin Ling welfare home, and then married into the Jin Ling Xiao family. This life experience looked very ordinary, and even carried a bit of tragic color that made people sympathize.

However, she also couldn't figure out how Ye Chen grew from a live-in son-in-law into the human true dragon Master Ye who was respected by everyone in Jin Ling, and she couldn't figure out how Ye Chen had such powerful strength, and even had the Rejuvenating Pill, which could be called a heaven-defying divine medicine.

One was a live-in son-in-law of the Xiao family, and the other was a human true dragon. These two images were simply heaven and earth, making Ito Nanako fall into a dilemma for a while, and she couldn't think of the connection between them.

Just when she was puzzled, Song Wanting walked into the courtyard, slowly came to her, and asked with a smile: "Nanako, why haven't you slept so late?"

Ito Nanako looked back at her and smiled: "I can't sleep, what about you, Sister Wanting?"

Song Wanting shrugged her shoulders and returned a smile: "Me too."

Ito Nanako smiled knowingly and sighed: "Sister Wanting can't sleep, it must be because of Ye Chen-kun!"

Song Wanting was slightly startled, and then also sighed with a smile: "Oh my, it seems that the reasons for our insomnia are the same."

Ito Nanako nodded and said without any reservation: "I was thinking, will the Prince Charming that Gu Qiuyi confessed to at the concert tonight be Ye Chen-kun."

Song Wanting widened her eyes and blurted out: "I thought exactly the same as you! Although there is no evidence and I can't think of any possibility, I have also been suspecting this matter!"

Ito Nanako didn't expect that Song Wanting would think the same as her, and hurriedly said: "Sister Wanting, you have always lived in Jin Ling and knew Ye Chen-kun relatively early. Can you tell me what Ye Chen-kun's past was like?"
