Chapter 2681: A Visit

~11 min read 2,152 words

Twenty minutes later, An Chongqiu accompanied the old lady to the old house of Ye Chen's parents.

The An family's bulletproof motorcade soon drove out of Wanliu Villa and headed to the old city of Jin Ling.

At the same time, Ye Chen was also driving from the city towards Wanliu Villa.

He planned to go to Xiangshali Hot Spring, and the straight-line distance between Wanliu Villa and Xiangshali Hot Spring was very close, separated by only two mountains. Therefore, most of the journey from the city to Wanliu Villa and from the city to Xiangshali Hot Spring overlapped.

On the expressway out of the city, Ye Chen saw the motorcade coming from the opposite direction.

Before he set off, Li Yalin had sent him a message telling him that his grandmother was going to visit his parents' old house today. So although both sides passed each other at an extremely fast relative speed, Ye Chen could still judge that this was the An family's motorcade.

However, Ye Chen's thoughts were not overly affected. He had already explained to everyone he should explain to. He believed that with his usual conduct and prestige, no one in Jin Ling would reveal his identity to his grandparents.

Arriving at Xiangshali Hot Spring Hotel, Hong Changqing had already started a new day of teaching.

When Ye Chen arrived, he saw that all the students were studying intently, so he didn't go in to disturb them, just observed the situation of Nanako and Qin Aoxue from the window.

At this time, the two girls were sitting cross-legged on the cushions, following Hong Changqing's guidance, closing their eyes and circulating their Qi.

Ye Chen was surprised to find that there were already signs of Qi circulation in Nanako's body.

It seems that in just a few days, she had mastered the mystery of internal observation and the key to the transformation of Qi in the body, which could be considered as completing the introductory stage of the Martial Dao, which really made Ye Chen look at her with admiration.

As for Qin Aoxue beside her, Ye Chen could feel at this time that there was some intermittent energy similar to Qi in her body, but she could never truly achieve the complete circulation of Qi in the body.

And the state of her dantian, meridians, and Qi was like a car's power system in a starting state, but the starter couldn't reach the speed requirement for the engine to truly ignite and run.

Although she hadn't completely succeeded yet, she had already succeeded more than half. As long as she continued to work hard in this direction, he believed that it wouldn't be long before she would also successfully achieve the complete circulation of Qi.

It seems that Qin Aoxue's talent is indeed much worse than Nanako's.

In addition to the two of them, Ye Chen was also more concerned about the state of Chen Zekai and Hong Wu.

So he shifted his gaze to the two of them, only to find that the two brothers were still in the stage of headless flies, unable to achieve internal observation at all. Although Hong Wu closed his eyes, he was always baring his teeth, and his heart seemed to be exerting force in a certain direction.

Although Chen Zekai was not as ferocious as Hong Wu, his brows were always tightly locked, and he seemed full of doubts.

Ye Chen knew very well that these two were stuck at the key point of internal observation.

If they couldn't achieve internal observation, they couldn't find the specific location of the meridians and dantian, and circulating Qi was even more impossible.

Internal observation is very mysterious, just like vocal music teachers always talk about chest resonance and head resonance. Those who understand it will understand it as soon as they say it, and those who don't understand it will not know how to make the head and chest participate in vocalization even if they shout until their throats are hoarse.

This kind of thing must be explored slowly with a calm heart. Only by touching that context can it be possible to succeed.

At the same time.

Old city of Jin Ling.

The An family's originally very eye-catching motorcade had already dispersed before entering the old city, looking not so eye-catching, but all vehicles were still tightly protecting the commercial vehicle that Ye Chen's grandmother and eldest uncle were riding in.

And in the old house of Ye Chen's parents, Du Haiqing and Su Zhiyu had already finished breakfast.

Su Zhiyu dressed herself simply and neatly, picked up her handbag, and said to Du Haiqing, "Mom, I'm going to the Academy of Finance and Economics."

Du Haiqing nodded and exhorted, "Drive slowly on the road, are you coming back for lunch?"

Su Zhiyu said, "I won't come back for lunch. Zhiqiu and I will eat in the cafeteria of the Academy of Finance and Economics."

As one of the people in charge of Yisu Shipping, Su Zhiyu had been going to Jin Ling University of Finance and Economics with He Zhiqiu to make up lessons and recharge with He Zhiqiu's father, He Yuanjiang, for the past few days.

Now, Yisu Shipping's business was getting bigger and bigger, and its market share and operating income were getting higher and higher. The 100 billion US dollar level stall, although the two young girls had not had any problems running it, the company's development speed was too fast after all, and both of them were worried that their lack of experience and ability would limit the upper limit of Yisu Shipping, so they were recharging with He Yuanjiang at the Academy of Finance and Economics these days.

He Yuanjiang was a top economics professor after all, and also had rich practical experience. He was knowledgeable and was like a guide for the two young girls.

Su Zhiyu was changing her shoes and preparing to go out when she heard a crisp knocking sound from outside the courtyard gate.

In order to retain the original flavor of this old house to the greatest extent, Du Haiqing chose an iron fence gate as the courtyard gate. Although there was no doorbell, the knocking sound was as crisp as a copper bell, and it could be heard clearly in the room.

Su Zhiyu was a little puzzled and muttered, "Who is coming to the house so early in the morning? It wouldn't be Mr. Ye, would it?"

"How could it be." Du Haiqing said subconsciously, "Didn't Ye Chen say that if anyone comes to inquire about his news recently, we should never mention it? At such a sensitive time, how could he run over himself."

Saying that, she hurriedly said, "I'll go out and see."

Subsequently, Du Haiqing changed into outdoor slippers and pushed the door out.

Through the iron fence gate, she saw an old lady and a middle-aged man standing outside the door. These two were Ye Chen's grandmother and eldest uncle.

However, Ye Chen's grandmother had almost never appeared in front of the media for so many years, and because An Chongqiu was in charge of internal affairs and not external affairs, he almost never dealt with the media, so Du Haiqing didn't recognize the two.

She walked to the door and asked, "Who are you two looking for?"

The old lady outside the door looked at Du Haiqing, smiled slightly, and asked her, "May I ask, are you Ms. Du Haiqing?"

Seeing that the other party knew her name, Du Haiqing hurriedly said modestly, "Aunt, you are too polite. I am Du Haiqing. May I ask who you are?"

The old lady said with a smile, "I... I am Ye Changying's mother-in-law, An Chengxi's mother, Weng Huiyin."

Saying that, she pointed to An Chongqiu beside her and introduced, "This is my eldest son, and also Chengxi's younger brother, An Chongqiu."

"Ah?" Du Haiqing looked at the old lady in surprise and exclaimed, "You are Aunt An! Please come in, please come in! Mr. An, please come in too!"

Saying that, she hurriedly opened the gate.

Du Haiqing didn't understand why the old lady came to find her at first, but she soon realized that the old lady's purpose for coming here should have nothing to do with her. Combined with the things Ye Chen explained before, she immediately concluded that the old lady must have come here to look for clues about Ye Chen.

An old lady and An Chongqiu thanked Du Haiqing and followed her in. At this time, Su Zhiyu happened to walk out of the inner door. Seeing an old woman and a middle-aged man walking into the courtyard, she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

At this time, Du Haiqing hurriedly introduced to the two, "I'll introduce you two. This is my daughter Su Zhiyu. Zhiyu, this is Grandma An from the An family in the United States, and Uncle An."

"Grandma An..." Su Zhiyu blurted out subconsciously, "Then isn't that Ye..."

She originally wanted to say then isn't that Mr. Ye's grandmother and uncle, but she was shocked the moment the words reached her lips. She was smart all her life, and almost betrayed Ye Chen by accident, so she hurriedly said without a trace, "Then isn't that Uncle Ye's mother-in-law?"

The old lady asked curiously, "Does Miss Su also know Changying?"

Su Zhiyu hurriedly waved her hand, "Grandma An, you misunderstood. I don't know Uncle Ye. I heard others talk about it before, and later after my mother moved here, I heard my mother talk about it."

"So that's how it is..." The old lady nodded gently and didn't suspect much. After all, she had checked Du Haiqing and Ye Changying's past before coming, and she also knew that Du Haiqing had been thinking about Ye Changying for so many years, and even almost lost her life because of it.

However, visiting Du Haiqing herself felt somewhat awkward. After all, this gentle and intellectual woman was, to some extent, her daughter's rival in love, and she could be considered a miserable defeat at the hands of her daughter.

In fact, Du Haiqing also felt very awkward in her heart.

She had loved Ye Changying for so many years, and she didn't expect that one day, Ye Changying's mother-in-law would come to her door.

In order to ease the strange atmosphere, she said to Su Zhiyu, "Zhiyu, aren't you going to school? It's getting late, hurry up and go."

Su Zhiyu nodded and politely said to the old lady and An Chongqiu, "Grandma An, Uncle An, you two talk slowly with my mother. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

The two naturally exchanged pleasantries very politely. After Su Zhiyu left, they followed Du Haiqing into the inner door of this old house.

The moment she entered the room, the old lady saw that the decoration style here was still the same as it was twenty years ago. Thinking of her daughter, son-in-law, and grandson, the place where they lived before they died was here, and she was full of emotions, and tears flowed out unconsciously.

She was afraid that Du Haiqing would laugh at her, so she hurriedly turned to the side and wiped away her tears with her sleeve, then smiled and said to Du Haiqing, "Ms. Du, to tell you the truth, this is the first time I've been here in so many years. Thank you for maintaining this place so well!"

Du Haiqing hurriedly said, "Aunt, you don't have to be so polite to me, just call me Haiqing."

The old lady nodded gently and asked Du Haiqing, "Haiqing, I came to disturb you rashly because I want to ask you about some things."

Du Haiqing knew what the old lady was going to ask, but still asked her deliberately, "Aunt, what do you want to ask?"

The old lady sighed and said faintly, "After Changying and Chengxi had an accident, their son disappeared. For so many years, we have searched the world almost several times, but we have never found any clues related to him. I want to know, since you moved here, have you seen any suspicious young men around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old wandering around here?"

Du Haiqing could only lie, "Aunt, to tell you the truth, I haven't noticed. This is the old city of Jin Ling, the population density is very high, and the people living around are also particularly messy. People come and go every day. If you say who is suspicious, I really don't feel it."

The old lady said with a disappointed expression, "Chen'er, this child, was very emotional since he was a child and was very filial to his parents. If he is still alive for so many years, he will definitely come back to see..." ===== CHAPTER 2682 =====
