Chapter 253: Who is that man?
Xiao Zhang rushed to the gate of the yard where Xu Xiaoyue lived.
The wooden door was half open, and he could still hear the sounds coming from inside while standing at the door.
When he got in front of the person, the man couldn't help but hesitate.
He was just a neighbor, and even if Xu Xiaoyue was really in a relationship, he had no right to interfere.
Xiao Zhang thought so, but he still felt unbalanced.
The entanglement, hesitation and twists pushed him forward, but the inferiority in his heart prevented him from taking a step forward.
He stood at the door for more than half an hour in a self-torturing manner, hiding in the shadows and staying quietly without saying a word.
It was Yan Ye who discovered that there was a missing piece of light in the gap of the door.
His sharp military intuition came in handy again at this time.
The man made a gesture to Xu Xiaoyue, indicating that she should go into the house first.
After confirming that the girl had entered the house, Yan Ye slowed down his pace and opened the door from the inside.
The dilapidated wooden door made a creaking sound when it was opened with a swish.
Xiao Zhang thought the door was broken and was about to fall down, so he dodged to the side.
He took a big step back and raised his head to meet the gaze of the man in front of him.
"I, I..."
Xiao Zhang was suddenly at a loss.
He was prepared for the possibility that there would be a man in Xu Xiaoyue's family, but he did not expect that he would be such a tall, strong, and extremely oppressive man.
Xiao Zhang is not short. About 1.78 meters tall, this is the average height for most boys in Hong Kong.
Only when he stood in front of Yan Ye could he barely reach the man's shoulders.
It's just that Yan Ye is tall, and through his slightly transparent shirt, one can even catch a glimpse of the man's muscular body, broad shoulders and narrow waist underneath his clothes.
Needless to say, his facial features include thick eyebrows, big eyes, a straight and upturned nose, and an angular jawline. He looks even more stylish than the stars on TV.
The only thing worth criticizing is that the man looks cold and indifferent, as if no one can arouse his emotions.
Yan Ye narrowed his eyes, and scanned the man in front of him with his dark eyes, and asked in an unhappy tone of being interrupted: "What's the matter?"
Xiao Zhang didn't know where to look. He stared at Xu Xiaoyue in the yard through Yan Ye and said incoherently, "I want to find her."
As soon as Xiao Zhang finished speaking, he felt the temperature all over his body drop. My back feels chilly.
Xu Xiaoyue was also confused. She pointed at herself and asked, "Are you looking for me?"
After getting a confirmatory nod from Xiao Zhang, Xu Xiaoyue simply gritted her teeth and met Yan Ye's gaze and walked out.
"What can I do for you?"
Xu Xiaoyue kicked the pebbles under her feet, feeling something strange in her heart.
Before, she could be frank and stress-free when facing Xiao Zhang, but after Aunt Zhang said a lot of nonsense to her.
She was talking to Xiao Zhang, especially when they were alone like this, and it inexplicably felt like she was cheating on Yan Ye behind his back.
An indescribable feeling of stealth made her lower her voice when she spoke.
"I'm here to apologize to you. Don't take what my mother said this afternoon to heart."
Xiao Zhang mustered up his courage and the first thing he said was "I'm sorry."
He more or less understood his mother's temper.
He had said a lot of bad things about Xu Xiaoyue at home before, so he probably wouldn't be in a good mood when he met people.
He has gotten used to it over the years.
He was used to his mother's overly strong control over him, always belittling and suppressing everything he liked, pushing him to move forward according to her plans.
After being verbally hurt again and again, Xiao Zhang almost thought he had accepted it.
But this time, when Xiao Zhang heard his mother using those dirty words to describe Xu Xiaoyue, he felt angry.
No matter what he likes, as long as it is not in accordance with his mother's arrangements, it will be denied.
So he fled from that house in a hurry.
Xu Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment. She thought Xiao Zhang came to stand up for his mother.
I didn't expect that I would come to apologize to her.
"It's okay. It's okay."
Xu Xiaoyue is a person who responds to soft words and does not respond to tough ones. She was almost mad to death when someone called her a vixen in front of her.
But once Xiao Zhang apologized, she felt that it was not unforgivable.
The girl waved her hands, looking very open-minded, "These are all trivial matters, really, don't take it to heart."
Hearing her say this, Xiao Zhang felt relieved.
Xiao Zhang glanced at Yan Ye, who had been standing at the door and staring at him, and clenched his fists as if he had had a psychological struggle.
"Is the gay man who opened the door your partner?"
Xiao Zhang's tone sounded like he was asking casually, but the bead of sweat on his forehead showed that he was not as calm as he appeared.
When Yan Ye was suddenly mentioned, Xu Xiaoyue wanted to shake her head to deny it. She hadn't decided yet whether she should rekindle her relationship with the man, so what kind of person was he.
But the girl suddenly remembered what Aunt Zhang said, that Xiao Zhang liked her.
Xu Xiaoyue stopped shaking her head halfway and nodded.
"Yes, he is my partner."
"We met in the capital before."
Xiao Zhang's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he lowered his head and did not dare to look into the girl's eyes.
"Okay, I've finished what I want to say, so I won't bother you any more."
Yan Ye stood at the door, staring openly at the two people who were talking not far away.
The man looked at the watch on his wrist. Five minutes had already passed. He didn't understand what Xu Xiaoyue had to say to this man.
The girl lived in the alley for exactly three months, not too long or too short.
Yan Ye couldn't help but wonder whether during these three months, there would be a man younger than him and more talkative than him who would come into contact with his baby.
Yan Ye tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and just watched the two people chatting endlessly with cold eyes.
I don't know what I said, but the boy actually blushed.
Yan Ye smiled coldly and blushed easily. Maybe he was a sickly person. Such a person had no right to compete with him.
When Xu Xiaoyue turned around, she saw the man acting like a first wife. His dark eyes fell on her with an indescribable depth of meaning.
Xu Xiaoyue's hair stood up for no reason, "Let's go back."
As she spoke, she dragged the person inside.
Yan Ye tried to hold back, but couldn't help asking, "Who was that man just now?"
