"I know, I know!"
Ye Linyan was surprised that Xu Nuo remembered the number of days so accurately.
"So we can't waste any more time! Arno, I have time, I'll have time to spend with you from now on!"
What I want to tell you is that I'm preparing to resign!
“............................”
Xu Nuo stared blankly at Ye Linyan for a long time before she reacted:
"What do you mean? After all these years of hard work, it's finally... finally..."
"Listen to me, Arnold, there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding! The road has no end! But we will all grow old eventually, and we only have so much time left. I don't want to miss even a single second!"
Ye Linyan looked at Xu Nuo earnestly, and seeing Xu Nuo's somewhat bewildered expression, he said with unwavering determination:
"This is my choice. I can't make this decision for you, and you can't make this decision for me! I'm tired. I don't want to keep struggling on this path. Let's travel together, go see the sea, watch the sunrise, and watch the sunset!"
"Let's enjoy life together. Wherever you like, we'll settle down there, whether it's abroad or in China! As long as we're together, anywhere is fine!"
Looking into Ye Linyan's eyes, filled with tenderness and longing, Xu Nuo felt a sudden weight lift from her heart...
Ye Linyan did not lie to him, and he would never lie to him.
As Xu Nuo watched, she suddenly burst out laughing:
"Brother, you've already quit your job, do you still have money to travel? If you really don't want the company anymore, how will you support me?"
"Fool!"
Ye Linyan ruffled Xu Nuo's hair, messing up his long black hair:
"When I said resign, I meant resigning from my position! I'm still the largest shareholder! Don't worry, I can support you more than enough!"
Xu Nuo blinked, as if she understood, yet also as if she didn't!
"Come on, let me tell you slowly..."
——————————————————————
The next day, Ye Linyan indeed took Xu Nuo back to the villa on the hillside.
As soon as Xu Nuo entered, she discovered that the living room had completely changed.
"I had someone redecorate it! Do you like this style?"
Xu Nuo looked around and nodded:
"I'm fine with anything, I'm not picky!"
Hearing the noise from the living room, a kind-looking woman in her early fifties came out from the dining area with two other women of similar age, and they stood in a row.
"Greetings, young master!"
Xu Nuo turned around and looked at Ye Linyan with a question in her eyes.
"I invited them; from now on, I'll rely on them for everything, from food and clothing to shelter and transportation."
Ye Linyan smiled and introduced, "This is Aunt Wu, she's here 24 hours a day. The other two only work during the day."
As she went upstairs, Xu Nuo asked:
"Don't you dislike having outsiders in your home?"
"Then what can we do? You can't do laundry, you don't clean, and you can't cook! Someone has to do all these things!"
"Well, wasn't it always like this before...?"
He only said half of his promise before stopping.
Wang Mingwu used to send his clothes out to be washed. The two of them rarely ate at home. When they did eat at home, Ye Linyan would cook and they would wash the dishes.
Ye Linyan always made him do the cleaning, but he didn't like it and secretly hired someone to clean when Ye Linyan wasn't home.
Judging from Ye Linyan's words, he had known all along that Ye Linyan had been secretly hiring someone to clean the house!
The bedroom door was open, and before Xu Nuo could even enter, she noticed that the bedroom seemed to have been renovated.
Previously, the bathroom was on the right-hand side when you entered the room, but it's gone now. The bathroom has been moved to the northwest of the bedroom. The bed's position hasn't changed, but the cabinets have been moved to another wall along with the bathroom!
"Let's forget about the past. Starting today, let's begin a new life, okay?"
Ye Linyan put his arm around Xu Nuo's shoulder and led him inside, then turned and pointed to the area above the bed:
"Look, isn't it beautiful?"
Xu Nuo looked up and saw a large photo of the two of them hanging directly above the headboard, extending from the highest point of the wall to the headboard, with sides wider than the bed itself.
The photo wasn't the one of the two of them on the rooftop, but rather the one taken in the lounge behind Ye Linyan's old office. Ye Linyan was holding him, and he was fast asleep, nestled against Ye Linyan's chest...
"You made me look a little ugly in that picture!"
Xu Nuo had seen this photo on Ye Linyan's phone before, so she wasn't too surprised.
"Then you can take the photos another day!"
"That will definitely look much better than yours!"
Xu Nuo smiled at the photo.
"Mr. Ye, what would you like to prepare for dinner?"
Wu Ma stood at the bedroom door and knocked on the open door. She had just arrived and didn't know what the two of them liked, so she had no choice but to ask.
What would you like to eat?
Ye Linyan turned to Xu Nuo and asked.
Xu Nuo sat on the bed, took out the phone Ye Linyan had bought for him, and started looking through it:
"Let me look! I saw some recipes on my phone yesterday, and I really want to eat them!"
"Why didn't you tell me when I was in the hospital? I could have asked Aunt Wu to prepare earlier."
Ye Linyan sat down next to Xu Nuo, wanting to see what he wanted to eat.
"Didn't you still need to write your resignation letter? Go write it now! I'll tell Aunt Wu what we want to eat! We just finished lunch and aren't hungry, so we can prepare it in time!"
Xu Nuo turned her phone over so Ye Linyan wouldn't see it.
Seeing Xu Nuo's mysterious demeanor, Ye Linyan didn't press him further.
Xu Nuo and Aunt Wu went downstairs to the dining room. Ye Linyan couldn't stay in the study, so he took his computer and sat on the sofa in the living room. From this spot, he could see Xu Nuo as soon as he looked up.
"Young Master, there are so many things, just shopping for them will take a lot of time! I'm afraid we won't have time for dinner!"
"There's still time. I'll find someone to take you. You just need to pick the best and freshest ones!"
Ye Linyan couldn't hear very clearly, but seeing Xu Nuo's enthusiastic preparation for dinner, he still smiled.
