Chapter 256 Hiding the Lover
"Since we have guests, it's not convenient for me to stay here." She put down her teacup. "Is Mr. Yan in the bedroom? I'll leave after I finish talking to him."
The servant was in a panic, "He's not here... I'll go get him, you——"
"Are you downstairs?" Chen Qingteng stood up and went to the elevator at the back door regardless of the obstruction.
"Miss Chen! Mr. Yan is busy and has instructed that no one should disturb him."
"Am I someone else?" She laughed. "Is there Mr. Yan's lover hiding downstairs? Why are you being so secretive?"
"no…"
Chen Qingxin made up his mind, pushed her away, turned around and ran down the stairs.
The underground floor is the Yan family's wine cellar, and it is also a "forbidden area" that Yan Baiqing has ordered not to enter.
The servants could not run away without permission like Chen Qing did, but it would be even more taboo if they were not stopped.
Chen Qing's ears were filled with chaotic heartbeats. Just as she ran to the corner, Lao Qian stood in front of her with a face as stern as iron. "Miss Chen, go up first. Mr. Yan will be done soon."
"I have something urgent to discuss with him."
"Two minutes, please wait."
The design of this staircase is very clever. There is no light above and no ground below at the corner. The light strips on the wall are dim and deep. Chen Qing is afraid that Lao Qian will use brute force, and she cannot withstand the fall now.
So, she softened her expression and said, "Okay, then please urge him, I'm leaving soon."
"Where are you going?" Yan Baiqing slowly stepped onto the stairs. Old Qian nodded, stepped aside, and disappeared into the darkness.
He was wearing a beige home suit, with wrinkled trouser legs and sleeves rolled up to the middle of his forearms, unlike his usual gentle and elegant demeanor.
Chen Qing looked over his shoulder and asked, "Who's downstairs?"
"Old Qian."
"I'm not asking him!"
"Then who are you asking?" Yan Baiqing looked at her calmly, "Do you suspect I have a mistress?"
There was a hint of anger on Chen Qing's face, and a thin layer of pink spread to her neck, which made her look cute and pitiful.
His expression was gentle, and he wiped the sweat from her forehead with his thumb. "You haven't told me yet, where are you going?"
"The school notified me that I have to join the team in a charity performance this afternoon."
"So temporary?"
"I told you last week, but I forgot." She kept looking downstairs, but it was all in vain.
Yan Baiqing was standing below her, but even so, they were still not at eye level.
When you lean forward, you inevitably get closer to each other.
The scent of the young girl lingered in the air, he could see the small hairs on Chen Qing's cheeks, and the pounding in his chest was uncontrollable.
"Qing'er." He lowered his eyes, "You came back just for this?"
Chen Qing came back to his senses and pursed his lips, "Well, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to find me if something happened. I misunderstood."
Yan Baiqing laughed, "What misunderstanding? What do I need to find you for?"
"Li Xiangli, the owner of the music store." She said without hesitation, "You will come to me about the Chen family's affairs. You lost your temper last night, and if you hear that I'm not in the city, I'm afraid you will misunderstand again."
The man narrowed his eyes, half probing and half teasing, "Qing'er is starting to think about me."
"You have guests?" Chen Qing turned and went up the stairs, changing the subject. "I won't stay. I'll make room for you."
"What nonsense! You don't occupy any space."
The sky was not very clear and the room was foggy. Chen Qing walked to the sofa and sat down calmly. "Then I'll rest for a while before leaving."
"I've met Director Su."
Her expression was calm and composed. "Are you saying you won't let me lose weight?"
Yan Baiqing casually dusted his trouser legs with a handkerchief. "Besides this, he suggested you go to the hospital for a detailed examination."
Chen Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Aunt He really cares about Yan Baiqing and the Yan family. In order to prevent him from doing something out of line in anger, Aunt He took the trouble to shut Director Su up.
She rested her fingers on her temples and looked troubled.
"Don't fool around." Yan Baiqing was unusually serious about this matter. "I should have taken you to the hospital early in the morning, but Aunt He said you had to go to school and leave early."
"I'm going to get a physical checkup after the charity performance."
"How long will it take?"
"About a month."
Yan Baiqing's face darkened. "Where's the address? I'll make the arrangements. When we get there, we'll have a physical examination first."
Chen Qing opened his mouth, but the servant came in and interrupted, "Mr. Yan."
Yan Baiqing glanced at her and said, "Take Qing'er upstairs to rest. I'll take you to school this afternoon."
"Just now I told you that I don't take up space..." Chen Qing muttered softly, his butt motionless, "Now you're asking me to leave again?"
The servant glanced at the courtyard and offered her a hand. "Rest for a while. I'll go pack some cakes for you to take away. Charity performances are mostly held in towns and villages. I don't know how hard it would be to find some of the food you want."
Chen Qing noticed the gate from the corner of her eye and saw a women's car parked there, which made her guess even more certain.
She didn't argue anymore and went back to her bedroom obediently.
Yan Baiqing's guest is Zhang Yun, his ex-girlfriend who fell in love with him at first sight, was devoted to him, but was then cruelly abandoned.
Jiang Jingyan secretly monitored all suspicious people, except for the Zhang family, who was a loophole that could be exploited.
If Yan Baiqing wants to divert Zhao Ming, he will definitely ask his ex-girlfriend for help.
Chen Qing stood on the terrace of his bedroom, staring at the road outside the gate. He took out his cell phone, edited a text message, sent it, and then deleted it.
After this action, she leaned back in the rocking chair exhausted, her back almost soaked with sweat.
Zhang Yun stayed for half an hour. When Chen Qing thought she was about to leave, the servant knocked on the door and said, "Miss Chen, Mr. Yan wants you to go down."
"Have the guests left?"
"No."
Chen Qing was puzzled. Why would Yan Baiqing let her meet Zhang Yun? Could it be that... Zhang Yun couldn't forget their old love and was using her as a shield?
Before she could think any more, the servant came to urge her for the second time.
Chen Qing stood at the railing on the second floor, staring at the woman on the sofa.
"Miss Zhang." She smiled brightly, "Long time no see."
Zhang Yun's temperament remains unchanged. At first glance, she looks dashing, but when you get closer and observe carefully, you will find that there is a bit of frustration in her eyes, and the light in her eyes has a bit more of a fierce and pretentious look.
"After a few days of not seeing you, Miss Chen is truly capable of making me take notice."
Chen Qing didn't sit down, but replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "Ms. Zhang is still the same as always."
"I have a friend who is a classmate of Miss Tao." Zhang Yun said with disdain, "I have learned how Miss Chen stepped on Si Ran and climbed to Mr. Jiang's side. But you should cherish her. Do you have to make both of you two brothers the subject of gossip?"
Yan Baiqing frowned and warned, "Miss Zhang, it is too presumptuous to speak rudely in my Yan family. Please get out."
Chen Qing reached out to stop the servant, nodded and smiled, "It's okay, I'll see Miss Zhang off."
Zhang Yun looked at Yan Baiqing, her eyes filled with unconcealed resentment.
Chen Qing sighed, he was also a lovesick man.
She didn't really intend to send Zhang Yun off. The two people had no relationship, but Zhang Yun had been treating her coldly since their first meeting. Anyone would have a temper.
In addition, Chen Qing had set her up, so it was impossible for them to live in harmony in this life.
"Miss Zhang." Chen Qing glanced at the French window in the living room and said in a very low voice, "Do you really have to board Mr. Yan's ship?"
