Two hours later, the car stopped in front of the Bo family's old house.
As Ye Chen entered the villa, he heard the old man's hearty laughter and Shi Nian's sweet voice coming from the living room.
The girl's voice made his heart tremble.
An uncontrollable surge of emotion welled up inside me.
But the thought that she had only ever used his body during their relationship made him feel as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, leaving him feeling utterly disheartened.
He clenched his fists and walked into the living room with a sullen face.
"Oh, Fifth Brother, you're back! Niannian and I were just talking about you." The old man spotted Ye Chen at a glance and immediately greeted him with a smile.
Ye Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.
He glanced at Shi Nian.
Seeing Shi Nian staring at the old man with a silly smile on her face, completely ignoring him, his eyes darkened slightly.
He looked away and turned to the old man, asking, "Dad and Niannian, what did they say about me?"
"Hehe." The old man was in good spirits, smiling broadly. "Niannian said that you put in a lot of effort and sacrifice to save me this time. Thank you for your hard work."
"Don't rush to the company yet. Take a few days off and rest at home. Don't overwork yourself."
Although the old man loved Shi Nian the most, he still cared about his youngest son.
Ye Chen nodded and sat down next to the old man, not in a good mood.
In the past, he would definitely have sat down next to Shi Nian.
But because of the things he had thought about before coming back, he felt very frustrated, so he deliberately sat on the other side to see her reaction.
However, there was no response to the incantation.
She didn't even look at him; her eyes remained fixed on the old man.
He felt as if a stone was pressing on his heart, making him feel both frustrated and suffocated.
The old man has a habit of taking a midday nap.
Every day at noon, I need to rest and lie down for half an hour.
It was noon.
The old man chatted with Shi Nian for a while, then the housekeeper helped him back to his room to rest.
Shi Nian watched the old man's departing figure with reluctance.
Even after the old man had gone upstairs, she was still staring at the direction of the stairs.
Ye Chen finally lost control of himself, stood up, and walked in front of her to block her view.
"What are you doing? Don't block my view of Grandpa!" Shi Nian's face darkened, and she scolded him in an unpleasant tone.
Ye Chen didn't move, looking at her with a gloomy expression. "The old man has already gone upstairs. You can't see him even if I don't block him."
Shi Nian's eyes dimmed instantly, and she murmured, "If only my grandfather and I were conjoined twins, we could stay together forever... Even if we die, we could die together."
Ye Chen: "..."
He suppressed his irritation and said in a deep voice, "Come upstairs with me, I have something to ask you."
"I'm not in the mood to talk to you. I'm going to wait here for Grandpa to wake up. He'll only rest for half an hour, it'll be quick." Shi Nian said uncertainly, sitting on the sofa.
Ye Chen looked at her coldly.
Then, without saying a word, he picked her up and strode upstairs.
Shi Nian's face darkened, and she lowered her voice to scold, "What are you doing? What if the servants see you..."
"There's no one in the living room right now. If you don't make a sound, no one will notice us." Ye Chen's voice was deep, and he held her tightly, showing no intention of putting her down.
Today he had to find out exactly why she was with him!
What exactly is her attitude towards him?
