Chapter 35: The Fake Daughter of a Prominent Family
At the same time at the Huo family, Huo Zhenxun went into Huo Guangchun's study as soon as he came back.
"Juxian Pavilion?"
Huo Guangchun raised his head, with a dark gleam in his eyes, and Huo Zhenxun nodded:
"Ye Jiuzhou said it himself."
With his current abilities, he could find out who Huo Zhenyao met, but it would take a lot of effort.
Huo Zhenxun kept thinking about this matter on his way back. After much deliberation, he decided that he could maximize his benefits by relying on the power of Huo Guangchun.
After all, what Huo Zhenyao is threatening now is Huo Guangchun's position.
"Oh, your wings have really hardened."
Huo Guangchun couldn't help but sneer, and lowered his head to look at the document again:
"I see. I'll investigate this matter. Don't worry about it for now. Don't let anyone know that you know this news."
Huo Zhenxun agreed and was about to leave when Huo Guangchun suddenly stopped him and asked, "Do you really like that girl from the Su family?"
Huo Zhenxun didn't say anything. He thought he had made it very obvious and this question was completely unnecessary.
Huo Guangchun leaned back in his chair:
"You should know that your enemy is Ye Jiuzhou. Do you think you can defeat him?"
The Huo family almost fell into Ye Jiuzhou's hands during its heyday, not to mention that the Huo family is now on the verge of splitting up.
At first, Huo Guangchun was happy to cause trouble for Ye Jiuzhou, and he hoped that his son would snatch the person that person liked away from him so as to curb his arrogance.
Ye Jiuzhou is so young but he is riding on the heads of these old guys. Who can be willing to accept this?
But the most important thing now is to suppress the rebellious second son and stabilize the situation of the Huo family.
Huo Guangchun naturally changed his original idea. He didn't think it was a wise choice to face the powerful Ye Jiuzhou at this time.
Huo Zhenxun knew what Huo Guangchun meant. He was silent for a while before saying, "The decision is still in Ranran's hands."
Who she wants to choose is the key.
Huo Guangchun smiled:
"Recently, there have been rumors about their sweet relationship in Sucheng. Even I have heard a lot about it."
Huo Zhenxun didn't want to listen anymore and walked away: "Without marriage, everything is still unknown."
Huo Guangchun watched him go out, shook his head and sighed: "You are still young after all."
Huo Zhenxun stood at the door for a long time without moving. There was one thing he didn't say, which was:
Even after getting married, he will still protect his lady.
No matter who she is with, he will always be there as long as she needs him.
Someone slowly approached Huo Zhenxun: "Young Master."
Huo Zhenxun glanced at him. This was one of the people he had gathered after returning to the Huo family. He walked slowly downstairs and whispered:
"Go check for a person named Aunt Qin among the servants of the Su family and find out her background and identity."
I don’t know why Huo Zhenxun always feels a little uneasy.
"yes."
The people who came retreated in response, but they didn't notice a figure flashing around the corner.
"Investigate a servant of the Su family?"
Huo Zhenyao had a cigarette in his mouth and his legs were on the desk, looking a little nonchalant.
The person standing opposite was the one who collected Su Youran’s information last time. He replied in a calm voice:
"Yes, the eldest master ordered it himself."
Huo Zhenyao smiled with interest: "Interesting, why would you investigate a servant for no reason?"
He put down his legs and stood up, his posture elegant and calm:
"Since big brother needs help, then I, as his younger brother, must help. Go and find out what's so special about this person. Make sure you find out everything in detail."
For a time, the two largest forces in Sucheng were investigating an inconspicuous servant at the same time.
I don't know whether to feel honored or sympathetic for her.
Unfortunately, the person who was about to be investigated still knew nothing and was still staring at the figure sitting in the courtyard, whom she had been thinking about day and night.
Since Wu Shuxian didn't want to go out, Su Youran didn't go out either.
I wanted to do something to kill time, but I didn’t expect Ye Jiuzhou to come over at the usual time when he went to work in the morning. After having breakfast with Su Youran, the two of them sat on the recliners and basked in the sun.
The two lounge chairs were close to each other, and Ye Jiuzhou could reach out and touch Su Youran's tender and smooth face.
Of course, it wasn’t originally like this.
When Su Youran asked people to put out the recliners, the middle was at least one meter wide.
But who can blame Ye Jiuzhou for becoming more and more shameless? He just moved them together.
In fact, Ye Jiuzhou wanted to lie down while holding his beloved little one, but unfortunately, he thought the little one wouldn’t agree and would definitely glare at him.
Ye Jiuzhou thought about it and gave up this plan. But this is also good, rounding it off can be considered as sleeping in the same bed.
Ye Jiuzhou touched Su Youran's little hand, pinched her ears, and pulled her hair, and his little movements never stopped.
Su Youran had been enjoying it with her eyes closed, but he interrupted her and forced her to open her eyes. She asked him speechlessly:
“Do you have ADHD?”
Is that childish?
Ye Jiuzhou smiled like a pervert: "I can't help it when you are by my side."
He leaned over and kissed those tender and tempting lips, rubbing them for a long time before reluctantly letting go.
He then held Su Youran's hand and kissed her again and again, from her fingers all the way up her arm. His movements were full of tenderness and affection.
Su Youran felt a little itchy and couldn’t help laughing: “Aiya, let go, it’s itchy!”
Ye Jiuzhou looked up with a smile in his eyes. Just as he was about to say something, he saw someone hiding in the corner and watching him stealthily.
His brows were furrowed. What was going on? Who was that?
In the past, when he entered and left the Su Mansion, he felt that the servants were well-behaved and did their duty. However, in the past two days, he encountered people with abnormal behavior one after another.
Could it be that the Su family was really being framed?
Ye Jiuzhou reminded Su Youran in a low voice: “There’s someone over there. Do you know him?”
Su Youran turned around in surprise and saw a woman who looked to be around 40 or 50 years old.
The woman realized that they had discovered her and seemed to be in a panic and was about to run away. Su Youran stopped her in time:
"Stop, come here!"
She sat up, her thick black hair falling softly, and she frowned slightly, as if she was a little unhappy.
Qin Mingyue was nervous and flustered, feeling helpless but also a little expectant.
She knew she shouldn't have gone over there, she should have turned and run away before they could see her face clearly, but she really wanted to see her daughter up close and talk to her...
Seeing that she didn't move, Su Youran frowned even more and muttered, "Why are you so rude?"
Ye Jiuzhou had already gotten down from the recliner and stood beside Su Youran. Seeing that he was about to get angry again, Su Youran quickly stopped him:
"What are you doing? Don't scold her all the time at home. It scares her and she won't dare to come over."
She shouted over there again: "Come here quickly, I want to ask you a few questions."
Qin Mingyue couldn't help herself and walked over hesitantly: "Ran... Miss Youran... Mr. Ye..."
Su Youran looked her over. “What’s your name? What area are you in charge of? And what were you doing over there just now?”
Qin Mingyue was disappointed that Su Youran had no impression of her, but she was more excited and happy.
This was the closest she had been to her daughter in all these years.
Qin Mingyue had tears in her eyes:
"My last name is Qin. Everyone calls me Aunt Qin. I'm in charge of laundry. Just now... just now... I..."
Qin Mingyue was wondering how to explain her peeking behavior just now, when she heard Ye Jiuzhou coldly say:
"Are you Aunt Qin? Do you have a daughter named Qin Yiyi?"
Are there something wrong with this mother and daughter? Why do they both like to peep so much?
I met the daughter yesterday, and today I met the mother. It’s not about anything special, but the question is what are the mother and daughter planning?
Qin Mingyue suddenly had an idea and found an excuse in an instant. She said hurriedly:
"Yes, Yi Yi is my daughter. When I went back yesterday, I heard that she had disturbed Miss Youran... and Mr. Ye. I... felt uneasy, afraid that Yi Yi had caused trouble. I wanted to apologize to the young lady, but I didn't dare..."
Ye Jiuzhou's eyes turned colder. This was clearly a lie. But Su Youran seemed to really believe it.
"It's okay. I told you yesterday that there's nothing to disturb you. Just do your job well. You don't have to be so cautious."
She waved her hand and changed the subject:
"But your peeping behavior is very bad. Don't do it again next time. Otherwise, I will tell Uncle Lin to punish him."
Qin Mingyue felt bitter in her heart. Her biological daughter was right in front of her but she couldn't recognize her. She didn't even dare to show it.
She had never felt so clearly that:
She is just a stranger to my daughter...
Qin Mingyue's eyes were complicated, showing longing, joy, closeness, and sadness.
The more Ye Jiuzhou looked at this person, the weirder she felt. From the moment she came here until now, her eyes had always been on Ranran.
Her target is Ranran?
Su Youran seemed unaware of what was happening. She waved at Qin Mingyue and said, “Go back to work. Stop walking around.”
Qin Mingyue couldn't help but reluctantly turned around and left.
Ye Jiuzhou looked at her somewhat hunched back and narrowed his eyes. It seemed that he had to go back and urge Ye You again.
Su Youran picked up the water cup on the small table beside her, took a sip, and then said jokingly:
"Aunt Qin doesn't look like her daughter at all. When I saw Qin Yiyi yesterday, I felt that she looked familiar, but I was very sure that I had never seen her before. After thinking about it, I thought that I had seen her mother before, but it turned out not to be the case."
She drank some water and thought, "But why do I feel it looks so familiar?"
Ye Jiuzhou was slightly stunned. This was the second time that Ranran said that he looked familiar. He thought carefully about the timid face he had seen yesterday. Was there anything special about it?
"Jiuzhou, Ranran, have some snacks, freshly baked."
Wu Shuxian came over with a tray in her hand. Her movements were gentle and graceful, showing the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
Ye Jiuzhou walked over with a smile and was about to take the things from his future mother-in-law's hand when his eyes accidentally stopped on her face and he was suddenly startled.
No wonder Ranran felt familiar with her. Qin Yiyi’s facial features were somewhat similar to Wu Shuxian’s.
It’s just that Qin Yiyi’s temperament and demeanor are too timid, which is completely different from Wu Shuxian.
Unless you look at them side by side and compare them deliberately, it is difficult to see the similarities between them.
Ye Jiuzhou couldn't help but wonder, is there any connection here, or are the people just similar?
