Ye w.a.n.gchuan's eyebrows did not move. His eyelashes were longer than a woman's and were as beautiful as snow. He only raised his eyelids to glance at Qin Si before retracting his gaze. "No. Eat it yourself."
Qiao Nian had not eaten yet, so he would fast with her!
"Oh, alright. You and Sister Qiao are both G.o.ds. Neither of you is hungry. But I'm hungry. I'll eat a bowl of instant noodles to fill my stomach first…"
Qin Si guessed that even if he asked further, he would just be reminded of how single he was. Therefore, he was especially smart this time and did not ask Ye w.a.n.gchuan why he was not eating.
After saying his piece, he buried his head in the bowl and did not ask anything he should not ask.
…
The next morning, at eleven o'clock.
Qiao Nian came out of the room, exhausted from not sleeping the entire night. She was carrying a black leather notebook in her hand.
Gu San was preparing lunch. He had just asked Ye w.a.n.gchuan if he should prepare Miss Qiao's portion.
Turning around and seeing the girl coming down the stairs, Gu San shouted in surprise, "Miss Qiao, you're out?"
Qin Si had just finished a video conference when he heard Gu San's voice. He immediately came out. "Sister Qiao is out? Where?"
There was no need for Gu San to say anything.
Qin Si saw the person coming down from the second floor.
Qiao Nian was still dressed the same as yesterday. It was obvious that she had not slept the entire night. She exuded the frustration of sleep deprivation.
Qin Si stopped talking upon seeing her.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan reacted quickly. He immediately got up and went to the kitchen to get her the milk that had been heated in the microwave. He walked to the girl and handed her the mug. "Drink something warm first. Otherwise, your stomach will feel uncomfortable later."
Qiao Nian took it and found it warm to the touch. Her fatigue lessened a little as she carried the mug to the living room.
She said, "Elder Feng, Grandpa Ye, and the others…"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan's heart ached when he saw the green under the girl's eyes. He walked over and said, "They didn't wait for you last night. They went back first."
Qiao Nian rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache. "Yesterday…"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan handed her a stomach medicine and lowered his eyes. His deep eyes were filled with gentleness. "I've explained it to Elder Feng and the Old Master for you. They know that you didn't do it on purpose. Before Elder Feng left, he told me to ask you to call him if you found anything. As for the Old Master… You know him. What objections can he have? You don't have to worry about him thinking too much. He's at most afraid that you're too busy and didn't eat well or rest well."
This was not a casual remark. Ye Maoshan called early in the morning to ask him what time Qiao Nian was done.
If he had not changed the topic, with Ye Maoshan's personality, if he had heard that Qiao Nian had not slept the entire night and still had not come out, he would definitely have come to the villa again.
Fortunately, Qiao Nian came out at noon.
"They're flying in the afternoon. Are you seeing them off?" Ye w.a.n.gchuan pondered for a moment and was about to say, "Forget it. Rest at home. I'll go in your place…"
Only then did Qiao Nian calm down from her headache. "Aunt Ye and the others are leaving?"
"Mm. They've already settled their matters on the independent continent. It's about time to go back." Ye w.a.n.gchuan thought of something. "By the way, the Old Master left Ye Keji and w.a.n.g Fei behind. He said that if you need people, they can help a little."
Qiao Nian did not expect Old Master Ye to leave some people behind to help her.
Feng Yu called just as she was thinking about this in a daze.
