Chapter 258: Yan Ye sensed something unusual
The first thing He Zhishu wanted to do after getting the appraisal certificate was to look for Xu Xiaoyue.
If reason had not prevailed and he had wanted to check with Mr. He first, he would have been in front of the girl by now.
Along the way, He Zhishu couldn't calm down for a long time.
The pearl that I have been looking for for so many years is actually right under my nose.
He Zhishu's joy did not last long. Thinking back to the baby in Xu Xiaoyue's belly and her relationship with Yan Ye, his eyes darkened and he thought that he was still a step too late.
He Zhishu was more or less aware of Yan Ye's identity. Given his family background, it was impossible for him to find a woman who had no background and was of no help to him.
He Zhishu didn't want to guess the worst, but based on the reality, the girl was most likely just Yan Ye's lover.
Considering the baby in her belly, it is also possible that Yan Ye disagreed with giving birth, but she insisted on having it, and the two quarreled, so Xu Xiaoyue ran from Kyoto to Gangcheng in anger.
There are similar examples around He Zhishu. The more powerful someone is, the more they play tricks in private.
When they get tired of playing with older people, they just look for younger ones.
When you get tired of playing with women, you start looking for men.
He Zhishu had never been keen on love, but he had seen a lot and naturally knew a lot.
Being someone's mistress is not that easy.
If they meet someone with a violent tendency, not only will they beat the girls up, they will also force them to do some disgusting things, treating them like a dish that anyone can take a bite of.
Those who are mistresses have been cursed since ancient times.
He Zhishu, on the other hand, had a different perspective on this. Compared to the women being scolded, the men hiding behind were more hateful.
Thinking of how Zhuzhu had suffered so much in places he couldn't see, He Zhishu still regretted that he was too slow.
Xu Xiaoyue hid behind Yan Ye. She looked at He Zhishu from head to toe as if she was meeting him for the first time, repeatedly confirming whether he was joking.
He Zhishu said that she was from the He family and was the lost little daughter of the He family.
The man was so excited that he was incoherent, which was completely different from his usual calm and self-confident appearance.
The girl’s first reaction was, isn’t an unreasonable shrew like He Zhiyu her sister?
Xu Xiaoyue has no concept of relatives.
Not to mention the He family whom she hadn't seen for more than ten years, even if they were her biological parents, she only had a better impression of Xu's mother at most.
At least compared to Xu's father who wanted to sell her to a butcher, Xu's mother still considered her.
He Zhishu kept talking to himself, and then he realized that he hadn't given the appraisal certificate yet.
He handed the appraisal certificate in his hand forward and said, "Zhuzhu, it is indeed our fault that we have not found you in these years."
Xu Xiaoyue didn't go to take it but instead shrank back. She was a little scared and tentatively tugged at Yan Ye's sleeve.
She had no idea about the He family. She only knew that if what He Zhishu said was true, and she was really the lost child of the He family, then those two naughty kids, He Zhiyu and He Zhiyu, might be her younger brothers and sisters.
Xu Xiaoyue didn't really want to accept such rude and disrespectful brothers and sisters.
Besides, what's the point of telling her this now?
She is already an independent adult, and the He family has been absent from her life for more than ten years. If you must say, they are just strangers with blood ties.
He Zhishu saw the girl's backward movement clearly.
He Zhishu paused with his hand raised in the air, "Zhuzhu..."
"She is not your Zhuzhu."
Yan Ye couldn't help but interrupt He Zhishu.
Yan Ye stepped forward and blocked Xu Xiaoyue tightly. He glanced at the words on the appraisal certificate, which showed that they were relatives.
"She has her own name. Her name is Xu Xiaoyue, not He Zhizhu from the He family."
"You can't rely on feelings. He Zhizhu from more than a decade ago and Xu Xiaoyue now are two different things."
He Zhishu was stunned by Yan Ye's words. The man subconsciously looked at Xu Xiaoyue who was hiding behind him and explained, "I don't think so..."
Even before he knew the girl's true identity, He Zhishu already felt close to her.
That's why he realized the girl was missing on the train and couldn't wait a moment before going to find the conductor.
To He Zhishu, both Xu Xiaoyue and Zhuzhu were his little sisters in his mind. It was just that God had mercy on him and allowed him to fulfill his wish and find He Zhizhu again after searching for more than ten years.
He Zhishu's scorching gaze could not be ignored. Xu Xiaoyue pursed her lips, feeling conflicted and hesitant.
After a struggle between her conscience and her conscience, she took the appraisal letter and looked at it carefully.
According to the contents of the appraisal certificate, she is indeed a member of the He family.
"Brother He, I'm sorry."
"I don't want to go back with you yet."
Xu Xiaoyue really couldn't face a whole family of strangers and get along with the two siblings of the He family as if nothing had happened.
He Zhishu frowned. There were some things he couldn't say in front of Yan Ye.
What the He family can give Xu Xiaoyue will definitely be more than what Yan Ye can give.
She is a child of the He family, so Xu Xiaoyue should also have a share of those things.
No matter from which perspective, He Zhishu did not agree with Xu Xiaoyue's decision.
He was about to persuade her again, but Yan Ye's face darkened, "She just doesn't want to go back with you."
"If you keep talking nonsense, don't come next time."
If Xu Xiaoyue hadn't told Yan Ye that He Zhishu had helped her on the train before and had been protecting her since arriving in Gangcheng, Yan Ye would never have spoken in such a polite tone.
For him, nothing can go directly over Xu Xiaoyue's head.
The He family is something that others are eager to get into, but to him, it is really nothing.
After being rejected again and again, He Zhishu's face turned very ugly.
He Zhishu carefully put the paper appraisal form in his pocket and looked at the girl steadily. "Wait for two days and make a decision after you have thought it through."
After saying this, He Zhishu did not linger any longer, and walked out of the courtyard with a distraught look on his face.
Only after she could no longer see the man's back did Xu Xiaoyue feel relieved.
"Will it be bad to reject him like this?"
The girl began to feel conflicted again. She was not worried about the power of the He family, but because she felt guilty towards Zhishu He.
All the decisions made by eldest brother He Zhishu were for her own good, but not all members of the He family were like him.
It takes a lot of courage to reject someone who is so sincere to her.
Yan Ye ruffled the girl's black hair with his big hands and said, "You're right not to go."
"The He family, from top to bottom, all the people in the family, threw you in there to be sold and you have to help count the money."
Yan Ye had never expected that Xu Xiaoyue's life experience was so bizarre.
He investigated her and only knew that Xu's mother and father were not from the village at first, but moved here from somewhere else later.
Because it happened so long ago, no clues could be found even if we investigate further.
I didn't expect there would be such twists and turns in the development.
According to He Zhishu, Xu Xiaoyue was originally the granddaughter of the He family, but she was abducted and sold.
From Gangcheng to Xujia Village, the distance between them is not just a short distance, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is tens of thousands of miles.
The point is that it is illogical to travel such a long distance just for such a little girl.
Yan Ye keenly sensed something unusual from it.
