Chapter 1457: Returning to the Xiahhou Family


Time flies, and just like that, two days have passed!

In these two days, Ye Xunhuan has been living quite freely, doing nothing all day and spending time with Mei Hanqing.

Today, Jian Yunong is preparing to take Mei Hanqing to her grandfather's house. After all, Mei Hanqing has been away for over twenty years, and her grandparents have always been thinking about her!

Now that Mei Hanqing is back, how could she not visit them?

Ye Xunhuan didn't plan to join in on the excitement. During these days in Suzhou and Hangzhou, Mei Hanqing and Jian Yunong have grown closer, and he's also quite familiar with the Su family now. So, Ye Xunhuan decided to return to Jiangzhong City today.

He has already been out for a long time, and if he doesn't go back, who knows what Qiu Ruoxi might think!

Though Olivia is in Jiangzhong City right now, she would surely cover for him a bit, but if it's for a short time, it's fine. Long term, though, he might get exposed.

Moreover, if he and Mei Hanqing return to Jiangzhong City together, it would be equivalent to telling Qiu Ruoxi that he's been with Mei Hanqing these past days.

Who knows what will happen then.

Ye Xunhuan didn't want to complicate things, so he returned to Jiangzhong City first.

Mei Hanqing understood that if she returned with Ye Xunhuan, it would be troublesome. Although she was a bit reluctant, she let him go.

After driving to Jiangzhong City, Ye Xunhuan went straight to the Ting Xiang Shui Xie villa.

At this moment, Ye Xunhuan found himself missing the atmosphere of life at the Ting Xiang Shui Xie villa.

Although Qiu Ruoxi would occasionally give him a sour face, and the two of them would have some quarrels from time to time.

But how could a married couple have smooth sailing for their entire lives?

If they never even argued throughout their whole lives, wouldn't that be too dull?

Due to it being a Sunday, Qiu Ruoxi hadn't gone to work, so when Ye Xunhuan returned to the villa, he saw Qiu Ruoxi right away.

When Qiu Ruoxi saw Ye Xunhuan come back, she didn't act excited, like many couples who reunite after a long time apart, and offer a passionate kiss or hug.

Faced with Ye Xunhuan's sudden return, Qiu Ruoxi appeared very calm, like a lake surface without a ripple.

"Honey, I'm back!" Ye Xunhuan grinned at Qiu Ruoxi.

Qiu Ruoxi calmly nodded and responded with a light hum, without asking anything.

Seeing how calm Qiu Ruoxi was, Ye Xunhuan felt quite frustrated.

People say that little separations enhance the love between newlyweds, so why is there no reaction from my wife!

But thinking about it, this is really in line with Qiu Ruoxi's cold personality.

While Qiu Ruoxi was extremely calm, Aunt Wang seemed very happy and warmly inquired about Ye Xunhuan's well-being.

"Honey, where's Olivia?" Ye Xunhuan looked around, and not seeing Olivia, couldn't help but ask, "She didn't leave, did she?"

"No, she went out!" Qiu Ruoxi said indifferently, "I guess she'll be back soon!"

"Where could she go at this time?" Ye Xunhuan said puzzled.

To Ye Xunhuan's question, Qiu Ruoxi didn't respond because she didn't know where Olivia had gone either.

Anyway, Olivia has been going out for a while every day recently, and no one knows what she's been doing.

Although Qiu Ruoxi was very curious about this, she didn't ask Olivia anything.

After all, everyone has their secrets, and Qiu Ruoxi didn't think anyone could do anything to Olivia!

Seeing Qiu Ruoxi not answering, Ye Xunhuan didn't continue asking about Olivia. Instead, he said, "Honey, aren't you curious about what I've been doing lately?"

"If I asked, would you tell the truth?" Qiu Ruoxi casually glanced over Ye Xunhuan.

Ye Xunhuan chuckled, "If you ask, I'll definitely tell you!"

"If you wanted to tell, you wouldn't ask like this!"

Having been with Ye Xunhuan for over half a year, it's impossible to say she knows nothing about him!

Qiu Ruoxi also knows her husband has many secrets. He'll naturally tell her when he wants to, but if he doesn't want to, questioning won't help!

So, Qiu Ruoxi might as well not ask.

Avoid asking questions that won't be answered anyway.

Suddenly, as if something occurred to her, Qiu Ruoxi changed the subject and said to Ye Xunhuan, "Dad called me a couple of days ago!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xunhuan's face immediately lit up with surprise and joy, "Where are Dad and Mom now?"

Since the last time Qiu Shuihan and his wife left Jiangzhong City, Ye Xunhuan hasn't seen them or heard any news.

"He didn't say!"

Ye Xunhuan's mouth twitched slightly. They say daughters are their father's little princesses, but his wife doesn't seem like that at all!

"Didn't you ask?"

"No," Qiu Ruoxi said softly. "He called, proving he's doing well, and there's no need for me to ask further. Even if I knew, what difference would it make?"

Ye Xunhuan was completely defeated by Qiu Ruoxi's logic, "Okay then, why did Dad call?"

"Nothing much, just to tell me that my grandparents miss me and want me to go back for a visit." Qiu Ruoxi said while scanning Ye Xunhuan up and down, "And take you back to recognize the family home!"

Visiting the Xiahou family?

Ever since knowing the Xiahou family is quite mysterious, Ye Xunhuan had been thinking about when he could visit, but since Qiu Ruoxi hadn't mentioned it, he didn't bring it up.

Even if he did, Qiu Ruoxi might not take him back!

She's a typical workaholic!

"So when are we leaving?" Ye Xunhuan eagerly asked.

"In a while," Qiu Ruoxi said without hesitation. "Let me finish my work first, and since Han Qing went to Suzhou and Hangzhou, who knows when she'll return, we'll go after she's back!"

While talking about Mei Hanqing, Qiu Ruoxi's eyes began scanning over Ye Xunhuan continuously.

Facing Qiu Ruoxi's slightly intense gaze, Ye Xunhuan's heart skipped a beat.

Could she know that I went to Suzhou and Hangzhou and am back from there?

Otherwise, why else would she look at me like that?

For a moment, Ye Xunhuan felt a bit guilty, but even then, he managed to ask calmly, "Is she back?"

"Would you not know?" Qiu Ruoxi said with a slightly meaningful look.

Qiu Ruoxi's words left Ye Xunhuan unsure of what to say next.

Just when Ye Xunhuan was at a loss, the sound of footsteps suddenly echoed from the doorway!

Hearing the footsteps, both Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi turned their heads to look at the door.
