Chapter 177 My childhood sweetheart can’t be a fool! (13)
Because the road was blocked by snow, the car could not go up after reaching the foot of the mountain, so they could only take the cable car to go up the mountain.
Bai Yao sat on the cable car. She put on her cotton clothes, but it was not enough. She curled up in Qi Ye’s arms and looked at the snowy scene outside the window. It was all white, without a single green.
As for the road, there was no trace of it.
Bai Yao could even see the mist emitted when she breathed. She asked Qi Ye curiously: "Why is your grandpa so depressed that he lives in a place with such difficult transportation?"
Qi Ye tilted his head and blinked.
Bai Yao wrapped his coat tighter. Although he was not afraid of the cold, she was cold herself, so she thought he would be cold too. "I looked around and the only way to get up and down the mountain was to take the cable car. The environment here is not good. I guess even airplanes can't land here. If something happens on the mountain..."
Bai Yao has watched a lot of murder TV series recently. She was excited and her eyes widened. "For example, if there is a perverted murderer on the mountain, and he damages the cable car track, then we will all be trapped inside and wait for death!"
Qi Ye cooperated with her very well. His handsome face showed a look of panic and fear. He reached out and hugged her tightly, his body shaking.
Bai Yao couldn't help laughing.
Maybe it was the dead nanny in his childhood that left a psychological shadow on Qi Ye, but he was very timid.
When Bai Yao dragged him to watch a horror movie when he was a child, he didn't dare to sleep alone that night, so he sneaked into her room and had to share a bed with her to sleep.
Even though Bai Yao told him that there were no ghosts in this world, he was still too scared to stay alone.
Yes, he was really timid.
Not long after, they took the cable car to the top of the mountain, where a man in a black suit was waiting for visitors.
He was smiling and wearing a pair of glasses. He looked very gentle, elegant, and friendly. When he saw someone coming down from the cable car, he said in a gentle tone: "You two must be Mr. Qi and Miss Bai. Hello, I am the housekeeper who takes care of the old man, He Ming."
This housekeeper He was probably in his thirties or forties. His exact age could not be seen. He could recognize Qi Ye and Bai Yao at a glance. He must have done kung fu before.
After Bai Yao politely greeted him, He Ming took them to the mansion.
This is a white and majestic building with a Western style from the last century. It stands in the snow, majestic and imposing.
After entering the door, the air became much warmer, and the decoration inside was even more magnificent, unabashedly announcing to the guests the magnificence accumulated with money.
For so many years, Qi Ye has been living in the Bai family, and no member of the Qi family has contacted him. Bai Yao has never deliberately inquired about the Qi family, but she works in finance and trade after work, so it is inevitable that she has heard about the Qi family several times from others.
The Qi family has been wealthy for countless generations, and their family property is unimaginable for ordinary people, but they are too lazy to take care of a child.
Bai Yao has a hunch that she will have a tough battle to fight.
In the living room where the fireplace was burning, there were already several people sitting on the sofa.
A middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman sat together. He Ming introduced them as the eldest son and daughter-in-law of the old man, Qi Da and Jia Ran. The couple greeted Bai Yao and Qi Ye in a friendly manner.
Sitting on the other side of Qi Da was a young man, the son of Qi Da and his wife, named Qi Fei. He was curled up on the sofa playing with his mobile phone and was too lazy to look up at the newcomers.
Opposite the eldest uncle's family sat the younger uncle's family. The third brother Qi Xiao was the youngest of the three brothers and had a nonchalant demeanor. His wife Yin Mo was a quiet and reserved woman.
At this time, a woman with exquisite makeup walked in. She was wearing bright and colorful clothes. The diamonds inlaid in the jewelry on her neck and hands sparkled under the light. She looked like a rich flower.
This is the old man's only daughter, Qi Xingyun. It is said that when she was born, the old man just negotiated a big deal and made a lot of money, so he named his daughter "Lucky".
Because she is the only daughter, she is of course spoiled. She came here alone first, and her husband had work to deal with and needed to arrive later.
As for the second child, Qi Yuan, his family was also on the way, but they were delayed by something on the way.
It is worth mentioning that all the brothers and sisters in this room are half-siblings, and the old man played a lot when he was young.
Bai Yao was ready to fight back, but what she didn't expect was that after hearing Butler He introduce the identities of Qi Ye and Bai Yao, the younger sister Qi Xingyun chatted with Bai Yao enthusiastically.
Qi Xingyun asked the two kids to sit down, smiling brightly and kindly, "The road to the mountain here is not easy to walk on, I have already told my father that there are so many estates at home, any one of them is more comfortable than living here. He is old and stubborn, and he just doesn't listen to me."
Qi Xingyun went to pull Bai Yao's hand, "Little girl, your skin is so delicate, don't let it get frozen."
Before she touched Bai Yao's hand, Qi Ye had quickly reached out and pushed Qi Xingyun's arm away, and pulled Bai Yao closer to him.
The friendly smile on Qi Xingyun's face twisted.
This uneducated wild child!
Almost everyone sitting in this hall would look at Qi Ye inquiringly. They were all wondering how competitive Qi Yuan's son, who was only mentioned in rumors, would be in this war to divide the property.
They all knew that Qi Yuan had a son named Qi Ye, but Qi Yuan never brought the child to them. It was said that the child had intellectual problems. Qi Yuan probably felt embarrassed and didn't want Qi Ye to show up.
I don't know what the old man was thinking. He even notified Qi Ye to come here this time.
Qi Xingyun quickly adjusted her expression. She smiled and said to Bai Yao enthusiastically: "I have wanted to meet you, my niece-in-law, for a long time. When I saw you today, you looked so tender and tender that even an old lady like me was moved."
Qi Xingyun was almost 40 years old, but she took good care of herself and definitely did not look like an old lady.
Bai Yao also had a false smile on her face, "Auntie, you are really good at making jokes. Your skin is better than that of an 18-year-old girl. When you go out, people will ask you which school you are from."
Qi Xingyun covered her mouth and laughed, "Yaoyao, you are so interesting to talk to."
They had only met for a short time, and she already called her "Yaoyao".
Qi Fei, who was lying on the sofa playing with his phone, raised his head and said to his father in an exaggerated tone: "What's wrong with Auntie today? She's so easy to talk to."
Qi Da glanced at his son and said, "Don't meddle in the adults' affairs."
