Chapter 93: Are you treating him as a fool?
As the group boarded the hovercar, Andy felt as if he'd forgotten something. What exactly was it? He couldn't recall it at all. Never mind, if he couldn't remember it, he might as well forget about it. It probably wasn't anything important.
It was not until they got home and Andy received a call from Bai Youyou that he remembered that he seemed to have forgotten this person. He shuddered and decided to hang up the call. It was clearly she who left him to see Ji Xingyao, so he couldn't blame him for forgetting her.
Inside the villa, Baiguo was eating the food he had packed, while Pei Ji was looking at Wen Ye with a puzzled look.
"I say, can you please take a look at whose home this is? Did I invite you here?"
Wen Ye smiled good-naturedly, "I'm leaving tomorrow. What's wrong with me spending time with my daughter now? It'll be over two months before we see each other again."
Before Pei Ji could retort, Wen Ye continued, "If you really think I'm an eyesore, it's not impossible for me to take Bai Guo back home. The key is whether you agree."
Of course, Pei Ji would never agree. Who knows when this person will bring the person back after taking him away!
"impossible!"
Wen Ye shrugged, "That can't be helped. I'll have to bother you for another night."
Pei Ji: “…”
This shameless guy!
The night passed peacefully.
Baiguo woke up early and was sitting patiently in the living room waiting for her broken branches to arrive.
Andy came down from upstairs in a daze, the dark circles under his eyes particularly noticeable. Bai Guo gave him a strange look, "Uncle Andy, what's wrong with you?"
Andy, who had nearly put the cup of water in his nose, came back to his senses. He stared blankly at the cup with a sad face and started crying to Baiguo, "Your Aunt Youyou might come and beat me up later. What should I do?"
"Oh..." Baiguo expressed that he was helpless. It seemed that beating up the man who could even forget his dearest girlfriend was no big deal?
Wen Ye, who had just returned from exercise, walked in from outside and happened to hear this, so he said, "You don't have to worry about this at all. Bai Youyou has a mission and won't be back for a while. I have to leave soon too."
Andy was cheered up after hearing this. No wonder Bai Youyou didn’t come back to settle the score with him at night. It turned out that she had a mission?
To show his concern as a fiancé, he politely asked, "Is the mission dangerous?"
"It's not dangerous, just a bit tedious." Wen Ye poured himself a glass of water familiarly and gently rubbed Bai Guo's little head. "I'll be back before you start school."
Baiguo slapped Wen Ye's hand away and asked, "Why do humans always like to touch things? Can't they just talk properly?"
But I don't go to campus...
That should be good, it's quite boring to stay here every day. When I was a tree, I could stay in one place for thousands of years without moving and it didn't feel like a big deal. But after becoming a human, I'm not used to it anymore.
Wen Ye also noticed Bai Guo's expectant look. People of the same age still need to play with people of the same age. He understood this feeling.
Peggy came down from upstairs in a formal suit.
"Come with me to the company today."
"I?"
Baiguo pointed at herself, then felt a little repulsed when she thought of that Chao Ge song. The food in that place was delicious, but she really didn't like the atmosphere.
"Who else?" Pei Ji glanced at Bai Guo. "Otherwise, you can just stay home by yourself. I don't have time to play with you today."
Pei Ji did have something serious to do today. He thought it was not appropriate to leave a cub at home. In the past, he wished she would never appear in front of him, but now, considering that she was his savior, he thought it would not be a bad idea to take care of her more. After all, she had been much more obedient in the past few days and was not as annoying as before, so he could barely accept it.
Wen Ye probably didn't know that he had Bai Guo's tree heart blood in him. Thinking of this, Pei Ji leaned close to Bai Guo's ear and whispered, "Have you tried it? Did it sense your tree heart blood?"
Bai Guo was confused for a moment after hearing this, and followed Pei Ji's gaze to look at Wen Ye. So they were talking about him...
"No, he's very alert."
The way the two of them were whispering to each other amused Wen Ye. "What are you talking about? What tree heart blood?"
Bai Guo and Pei Ji looked at each other in shock. How could he have heard it? They were clearly speaking very quietly, and Andy didn't hear it!
"Have you two forgotten that I have mental power? Even if I don't use it, my hearing is better than that of an average person." Wen Ye smiled and nodded, "So, can you tell me what tree heart blood is?"
"You heard wrongly." Pei Ji denied it flatly. "I was just telling Bai Guo not to cause trouble at the company. There's no such thing as tree heart blood. You might need to go to the hospital to check your ears. Don't delay treatment."
"Dad Wen, we weren't talking about any trees or anything like that. You might have really heard it wrong!"
"Really? Maybe I heard it wrong." Wen Ye looked at the two pretending to be stupid and smiled meaningfully. Tree heart blood? Was it related to him?
"Uncle Andy, did you hear what we mentioned just now?"
Baiguo asked Andy, who was sleeping on the sofa, in a fake tone. But Andy was already asleep, so how could he answer her?
Wen Ye always felt that they treated him as a fool. What gave them such an illusion?
"Ding dong ding dong ding dong..."
The doorbell rang quickly. Baiguo jumped off the chair and followed the butler robot out the door. Her broken branches were here!
Wen Ye did not intend to let Pei Ji go, but stepped forward and asked, "Tell me, is there anything else I don't know?"
Peggy scoffed, "Aren't you pretty impressive? Go check it out yourself!"
He didn't believe that Wen Ye could find the term "tree heart blood". If he hadn't experienced it for real, he would never have believed that Baiguo was really a tree, and that he survived because of her blood. It was all so magical, but it happened.
"Of course I'll check."
Wen Ye also knew that asking Pei Ji would not yield any results, but what if?
"I did come to see Bai Guo with a purpose, I don't deny that. Even so, I can't possibly harm her."
Pei Ji didn't react much after hearing this. Wen Ye might not harm Bai Guo, but the tree's heart blood was so powerful, and if more people knew about it, it would be very dangerous for Bai Guo. He didn't forget what the main brain said, that someone was looking for this tree. In addition, Bai Guo was a person with super psychic abilities, so it was better to be cautious.
"You really don't want to talk?" Wen Ye continued to persuade Pei Ji, who was unmoved. "If I really want to investigate, it will cause a big stir."
"It's very simple if you want to know."
Pei Ji finally relented. Bai Guo needed the Wen family's military power right now, and that was what the mastermind was planning, right? So he'd just go along with it.
Ah... I'm stuck. It's so hard to write the transition chapter TT
