Chapter 811: Shared Childhood Memories
On the way to the Gu family in Gu Weiliang's car, Dong Ruolin sent him a WeChat message, saying: "Ye Chen, I have booked our tickets back to Jin Ling, tomorrow morning at nine, is that okay?"
"Okay." Ye Chen replied: "How much is the ticket? I'll transfer it to you."
Dong Ruolin complained: "It's just a ticket, you still want to give me money? You are too polite to me!"
Ye Chen said seriously: "You paid for me, how can I not give it to you."
Dong Ruolin hummed and asked: "Then you saved me several times, how can I not repay you? When will Mr. Ye give me a chance to give myself to you?"
Ye Chen was speechless for a moment and said helplessly: "Okay, I won't be polite to you about the ticket, see you at the airport tomorrow morning."
Dong Ruolin said: "Then you have to get to the airport before eight, don't get up late."
Ye Chen said: "Don't worry, I will arrive at the airport on time."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Weiliang asked nervously: "Mr. Ye, are you going back to Jin Ling tomorrow?"
"Yes."
Gu Weiliang asked again: "Mr. Ye, when will you come back again?"
"Not sure yet."
Gu Weiliang felt cold in his heart.
He originally thought that if Ye Chen stayed in Jingcheng, he would go to his uncle's house every few days to curry favor with him, and maybe after a period of time, he would forgive him for his previous behavior, thereby allowing him to restore his reproductive ability.
But Ye Chen was leaving Jingcheng tomorrow, and he wouldn't have a chance to curry favor in the future. What should he do?
What if Ye Chen really only lets him recover after three or five years? How will he spend these three or five years...
Ye Chen saw through his thoughts and said faintly: "Even if I am not in Jingcheng, you can perform well in front of my uncle's family. If they are satisfied with your performance, I can consider letting you recover to normal ahead of schedule."
Gu Weiliang breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Mr. Ye, don't worry, I will definitely work hard to perform!"
When Ye Chen returned to the Gu family, Gu Yanzhong had already gone to the Gu Group.
He had recovered from a serious illness and was in very good physical condition, so he devoted himself to work, striking while the iron was hot to strengthen his control over the Gu Group.
Except for the servants at home, Ye Chen only saw Gu Qiuyi lying on the sofa reading a novel.
Because the villa had floor heating, even though it was the middle of winter outside, it was still very warm in the villa. The temperature in the room was constant at about 28 degrees, and you could wear shorts and short sleeves at home like in summer.
Gu Qiuyi was wearing a lace nightdress, her long, white, beautiful legs were intertwined and exposed to the air.
Her figure was indeed the best among all the women Ye Chen had ever seen, even Qin Aoxue, the little pepper who practiced martial arts all year round, could not compare with her.
This was mainly because Gu Qiuyi's body proportions were too good. She was the nine-head-body that all actresses dreamed of.
The so-called nine-head-body refers to a woman's height being nine times the length of her face. A woman with this proportion has the most perfect figure. It is extremely difficult to find a woman with such perfect body proportions in life, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is one in a million.
Seeing Ye Chen return, Gu Qiuyi stood up happily, ran to him in two or three steps, and said with a smile: "Brother Ye Chen, why are you back so early? I thought you wouldn't be back until the evening!"
Ye Chen felt his arm being held tightly by her, and it was inevitable that he would have some distracting thoughts, but he didn't dare to think crookedly, and said: "It's just attending a birthday banquet, I came back after it ended."
As he spoke, Ye Chen asked her: "Uncle and Aunt are not here?"
"Hmm." Gu Qiuyi said coquettishly: "My dad went to the group, and my mom went to a charity banquet, with charity auctions and cocktail parties, so she won't be home for dinner tonight."
Ye Chen nodded. He knew that with Lin Wanqiu's status, she was also a top socialite in Jingcheng. Her husband made a high-profile comeback, and she also had to make a high-profile comeback in her own way to provide support for her husband.
Gu Qiuyi asked tentatively: "Brother Ye Chen, are you sure you are leaving tomorrow?"
Ye Chen said: "Yes, leaving tomorrow."
Gu Qiuyi looked disappointed, hesitated for a moment, remembered something, and said: "Brother Ye Chen, take me out for a walk!"
Ye Chen asked her: "You are a big star, if you go out casually, won't you be followed by paparazzi?"
Gu Qiuyi smiled: "Just like when I went to the airport to pick you up last time, just disguise yourself!"
As she spoke, Gu Qiuyi said again: "I'll take you to see the places we played when we were young. Do you remember Luogu Lane?"
"Luogu Lane?" Ye Chen frowned, feeling that the place name was both strange and familiar.
Gu Qiuyi said: "It's the place where our parents often took us when we were young. There are many street vendors, small shops, many delicious and fun things, and Luogu Lane is next to Houhai. When we were young, we would go to Houhai to skate on ice cars every winter. Do you remember?"
Fragments of childhood suddenly appeared in Ye Chen's mind.
In the picture, he and Gu Qiuyi, led by their parents, went to Luogu Lane to eat candied haws and played ice cars on the ice of Houhai.
Winter in Jingcheng is very cold. The surface of Houhai lake will freeze into thick ice. After the ice is sealed, people will go to the lake to skate and play ice cars. Children sit on self-made small ice cars, moving by poking two iron rods on the ice.
In that era, children had no electronic products to play with, so every winter, Ye Chen would think about going to Houhai to skate.
He still remembers that Gu Qiuyi's parents had a very beautiful courtyard by Houhai. Every time his parents took him to Houhai, they would take him to visit Gu Qiuyi's parents first, and then have a meal in Gu Qiuyi's courtyard.
Thinking about it now, those distant memories that hadn't appeared in his mind for more than ten years were still vivid after such a long time.
At that time, Gu Qiuyi was a follower, wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket, like a little cotton ball, her small hands stretched out from the sleeves of the cotton-padded jacket, holding his clothes tightly, and would not let go once she grabbed them.
At that time, she always had the words "Brother Ye Chen" on her lips, her voice was sweet, glutinous, and with a bit of shyness, which was very cute.
However, he hadn't been to the place he loved most in his childhood for eighteen years.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen's heart was also full of nostalgia.
So, he asked Gu Qiuyi: "Nannan, is the courtyard your family has by Houhai still there?"
"Yes!" Gu Qiuyi said with a smile: "That is a protected building and is not allowed to be demolished. My dad spent a lot of money to renovate it two years ago. If it weren't for the traffic congestion in the city center now, we would want to move there to live."
As she spoke, she asked with excitement: "Brother Ye Chen, do you want me to take you to see it now?"
Memories in Ye Chen's brain surged, and his heart suddenly became excited, blurted out: "Okay!" ===== CHAPTER 812 =====
