Chapter 54 I Miss Him a Little
This was a bit presumptuous, but when he asked it, his expression was genuine and natural, as if he was caring, and not offensive.
Jin Ye thought for a moment and said, "My parents died early, and I only have one uncle who runs a grocery store. He is doing quite well in business."
Several classmates looked at her with sympathy, because it turned out that both her parents were dead.
But her uncle must be a big businessman, after all, he had a car to take her to school.
Professor Gu sighed and felt somewhat guilty, "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked."
"It doesn't matter."
After dinner, Jin Ye took Lao Zhang's car back to the Governor's Mansion. Mrs. Wei also came back, but she didn't see Wei Liangchen.
To avoid suspicion, she asked nothing.
Jiaxin and the second concubine came over and asked her about the kidnapping. After listening, Wei Jiaxin said, "If it were me, I would have fainted from fear a long time ago."
"Fortunately Xiaojin knows how to shoot." The second concubine's legs went weak just by hearing this.
"I'll ask my second brother to teach me how to shoot next time," Wei Jiaxin said, "but he can't expect me to mop the floor for him."
Jin Ye was a little amused and helpless.
Suddenly I thought, yes, if that guy hadn't taught her shooting and boxing - although she didn't learn the latter very well, she might have died on the boat before he could save her.
In the final analysis, his contributions to her outweighed his faults.
Thinking of the scene where he flew to save her on the boat, her heart softened a little and she actually missed him a little. But quickly, she shook her head and said, "No, no, I must not think about him."
He was not seen the next morning either.
Jinye and Jiaxin went to school. As soon as they entered the school gate, they saw Ling Shaomin surrounded by a group of girls, looking at something.
"Wow, this is your sister, so beautiful."
"Not only is she beautiful, she also has a great temperament."
"They look so good together with Young Marshal Wei."
Jin Ye and Wei Jiaxin passed by and took a look. They were seen by Ling Shaomin, who pushed everyone aside and walked towards them.
Jin Ye saw that she was holding a newspaper in her hand.
It's the Sioux Morning Post.
Ling Shaomin pointed at the photo with the text on it and said, "Look, my sister is back, and Marshal Wei went to pick her up in person."
Jin Ye's gaze fell on the character column. Wei Liangchen and Ling Xuewei were in the front, and behind them was a huge cruise ship and a crowd. Ling Xuewei was wearing a white long dress and a small lace hat on her Western court curly hair. She was beautiful and charming.
Wei Liangchen was standing beside him, holding a light yellow umbrella, with that familiar, nonchalant smile on his face.
There was almost no distance between the two men's arms.
No wonder he didn’t come back, it turns out he really went out to pick someone up.
People of this era are really strange. Good news or bad news, no matter what happens, they just like to put it in the newspaper.
Ling Xuewei looks more mature than before. Her small face, the size of a palm, is extremely pretty. She is tall and has a kind of otherworldly, intellectual beauty.
"So what if you come back? What do you want to do?" Jin Ye asked.
Ling Shaomin raised her head slightly and said, "You will know soon."
"Don't mess around." Wei Jiaxin was afraid that she would bully her third sister.
We were bullied a lot in the past, but later on, my third sister learned some skills to protect herself, so we got bullied less.
Ling Shaomin raised her noble head, snorted, and turned away.
Jin Ye felt a little depressed, but she comforted herself that perhaps the days of hiding from the light would be over.
After school, Jinye passed by a firecracker shop and asked Lao Zhang to stop the car and bought two large firecrackers to celebrate in advance. Jiaxin was puzzled, "Why did you buy firecrackers? It's not the New Year or any other festival."
"Get rid of bad luck for yourself."
When we returned to the Governor's Mansion and were about to set off firecrackers, a shiny black Chevrolet drove over, the door opened, and black military boots came into view.
"Are you so happy to see me come back that you're setting off firecrackers?" Wei Liangchen strode over, still with a nonchalant smile on his face.
Jin Ye put away the firecrackers, turned around and left.
Wei Liangchen's eyes darkened for a moment.
Wei Jiaxin said, "Second brother, Ling Shaomin brought us a newspaper today, which reported that you went to pick up Miss Ling yesterday. I don't know how arrogant she was."
Wei Liangchen's eyes flickered as he looked at the slender figure, "Those reporters are boring. They published such a small thing in the newspaper."
"Isn't it? But everyone says that Second Brother and Miss Ling look like a good match." Jiaxin said.
"You know you're a good match just by meeting a boat?" Wei Liangchen was very impatient. "You girls don't study hard, and you spend all day thinking about random things."
After saying that, he took two quick steps and went up to grab Jin Ye's arm, "Why are you walking so fast?"
Jin Ye was startled. Jia Xin was right behind him. He quickly broke away and said, "I have a lot of homework. I am not as free as my second brother."
"Which eye of yours saw that I was free." He laughed, "Are you mocking me for having time to pick someone up? Are you jealous?"
Jin Ye didn't want Jia Xin to notice anything, so he ignored him and quickly walked into the yard.
Wei Liangchen snorted, feeling depressed, his eyes darkened terribly, he stopped and asked Wei Jiaxin behind him, "What else did Ling Shaomin say?"
Wei Jiaxin came up and said, "She told Third Sister to wait and see. It seems like she is going to complain to Miss Ling, so Third Sister is unhappy."
Wei Liangchen pouted his cheek with his tongue: So she was unhappy because of Ling Shaomin?
Wei Jiaxin asked cautiously, "Second brother, can you please not let Ling Shaomin bully Third Sister? She relies on your friendship with her eldest sister and always thinks you are on her side."
Wei Liangchen sneered: "When have you ever seen her being bullied by Ling Shaomin? Is the kung fu I taught her just for show?"
Wait until they are out of sight.
Wei Liangchen frowned and told Adjutant Shen, "Go and see which newspaper it is."
Adjutant Shen was stunned for a moment, "Young Marshal, do you want to buy one?"
Wei Liangchen glared at him.
As the worm in the young marshal's stomach, Adjutant Shen understood immediately, "Yes, young marshal!"
While having breakfast, Jin Ye didn't see Wei Liangchen.
"Didn't my brother come back? Why is there no sign of him?" Wei Jiaqi said unhappily at the dining table, "I was just thinking about gossiping about him and Miss Ling."
Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "What's there to ask? Your brother went to pick someone up yesterday. Look at the newspaper. Miss Ling was smiling. I think there's something going on."
Wei Jiaqi sneered, "Mom, don't you dislike Miss Ling?"
"I didn't say I don't like it, I just don't like it as much as your aunt. I don't care." Mrs. Wei said.
Jin Ye glanced at her, but couldn't tell any emotion from her face.
Wei Jiaqi also said, "At first, Ling Xuewei suddenly left the country, and my brother was so upset. Now she comes back just like that. What does she think of my brother?"
"I heard that it was your brother who drove her away? You are biased towards your brother and think he is good in every way."
"That's right, I only have one brother." Jiaqi loves her brother unconditionally.
Even his farts smell good.
Jin Ye thought, maybe this was the reason why Wei Liangchen had always doted on this younger sister.
Who doesn't want unconditional love?
"Your brother has always liked such a girl." Mrs. Wei's eyes flickered slightly, "What do you think, Jinye?"
