Chapter 376 How Many Masks Were Left Behind?
After they got back, they started packing their things, and Aunt Wu helped them pack.
It was clear that Aunt Wu was very reluctant to see them go back to China. Yue Yirou secretly pulled Yan Ye aside and said, "Ye, why don't we take Aunt Wu back with us?"
She wanted to create opportunities for Aunt Wu and Butler Xue.
Yan Ye had no objection: "Go ask Aunt Wu if she'd like to go back with us. If she's willing, then take her with you."
Yue Yirou looked at Aunt Wu, who was busy helping them pack, hesitated for a moment, and then walked over and said, "Aunt Wu, could you come back to China with us? I need someone to take care of me during my postpartum period. Although Butler Xue is very good at taking care of people, it is not very convenient for him. Ye and I hope you can come back with us."
Aunt Wu stopped in her tracks: "Young Madam, I..."
“Aunt Wu, come back with us. Uncle Xue needs to take care of Ruowei, and Yirou and I don’t know anything about this. We really need you.”
Aunt Wu was interrupted by Yan Ye, and finally, after being persuaded by Yan Ye and Yue Yirou, she agreed to go back with them.
The night breeze was cool. Yue Yirou leaned against the windowsill, looking at the night outside, her mind filled with thoughts of what had happened at the mall that day.
How can there be such similar back views in this world?
Furthermore, when Yan Ye went to answer the phone, she could really feel a burning gaze fixed on her.
Could it be Lu Tingyun?
Just then, Yan Ye's phone, which was on the bed, suddenly rang.
Yan Ye was taking a shower in the bathroom. After glancing at the closed bathroom door, Yue Yirou walked over and picked up Yan Ye's phone. She originally intended to give the phone to Yan Ye, but hesitated after seeing that the caller ID showed Zhang Qier.
She didn't want to know why Zhang Qier called Yan Ye; she just had some questions for Zhang Qier.
However, Zhang Qier's phone number was not saved on her phone.
After hesitating for a few seconds while looking at the closed bathroom door, Yue Yirou lowered her eyes and pressed the answer button.
"Qi'er, Ye is taking a bath. Is there something you need?"
Hearing Yue Yirou's voice, Zhang Qier was clearly taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered: "Actually, it's nothing, just some small work-related matters. By the way, Yirou, you should have cleared up the misunderstanding between you and the young master by now, right?"
"Yes, it's all untied. Qi'er, thank you, and thank you Acheng too. If it weren't for your help..."
Before Yue Yirou could finish speaking, Zhang Qier interrupted her: "Hey, Yirou, please don't say things like that. I don't want to hear it, and neither does Acheng. If you keep saying that, I'm going to hang up."
"Wait a minute." Yue Yirou was worried that Zhang Qier would really hang up the phone, so she quickly stopped her. "Okay, I won't say thank you. Qier, I want to ask you something."
"What is it? Ask away."
"I'd like to ask, when you were in Black Wind, did you leave behind a lot of highly realistic human skin masks?"
She had some doubts that the person she saw in the mall today was Lu Tingyun wearing a highly realistic human skin mask.
That silhouette was so similar.
"Yi Rou, why would you ask such a question?" Zhang Qi'er was surprised that Yue Yi Rou would ask such a question, and she found it a bit strange.
"Qi'er, don't ask so many questions, just tell me if it's true or not?"
"A few copies were left, but they were all confiscated by the police later."
"How many did you keep? Are you sure the police took them all? Before the police took them, could someone have already taken one or two?"
"How many? I don't remember very clearly. Oh dear, the Black Wind is no longer here. Yi Rou, why are you still asking these questions? Besides, these masks I specially made can only be preserved for a year at most. After a year, they will rot. Even if someone steals the masks, they can't live a lifetime wearing them. Yi Rou, what are you worried about or what are you suspecting?"
"No, no, I was just asking casually."
"Oh, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up now. We can talk again when we meet tomorrow."
"Okay. Hey, wait a minute, didn't you just say you had something to say to Ye? I'll hand him my phone. Also, Qi'er, please don't tell Ye what I asked you earlier."
"Don't worry, I won't tell him."
After receiving Zhang Qier's assurance, Yue Yirou felt relieved and took her phone to knock on the bathroom door.
"Night, Qi'er called. She said she needs to talk to you."
A few seconds later, Yan Ye opened the door, and Yue Yirou quickly turned her face away as soon as she saw him.
This man is really something; if he's not going to wear a towel, he shouldn't have left the door so wide open.
Yan Ye saw Yue Yirou's face turn red instantly, smiled and shook his head, leaned over and gently kissed her rosy cheeks, then took the phone from her hand and closed the bathroom door.
Yue Yirou sighed, turned around and walked to the window, staring blankly at the scenery outside.
Although she and Lu Tingyun had no relationship anymore, he was someone she had once deeply loved, and she couldn't completely ignore what happened to him.
But she knew very well that she simply wanted him to be well, not because she loved him.
She had long since lost love for Lu Tingyun.
When Yan Ye came out of the bathroom, Yue Yirou was still standing by the window.
Yan Ye frowned when he saw Yue Yirou standing by the window in a thin nightgown, feeling the breeze. He took a small blanket from the sofa and went over to drape it over her.
"Yi Rou, the night is as cool as water. How could you run to the window to catch a cold? What if you catch a cold? You're pregnant with a baby."
If he had known she went to the window to get some fresh air, he would have pulled her inside for a bath together.
Yue Yirou turned around, looked at Yan Ye, and hesitated to speak.
She wanted to ask Yan Ye what Acheng and Zhang Qier were busy with.
She suspected they were investigating Lu Tingyun's affairs.
However, if she was really investigating Lu Tingyun's affairs, even if she asked, Yan Ye wouldn't tell her, and it would only make him angry.
"What do you want to say to me?"
He could tell that she had something she wanted to ask him, and he had a vague idea of what she wanted to ask.
While she was on the phone in the mall, she kept looking around, which was definitely suspicious.
Perhaps she has already sensed something.
Yan Ye decided that if she asked, he would tell her.
Couples should be open and honest with each other; keeping things from each other can easily lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.
Yue Yirou moved her lips, but ultimately did not ask.
She didn't dare to ask. Even though Yan Ye had changed a lot, she still didn't dare to mention Lu Tingyun in front of him.
He would assume she was concerned about Lu Tingyun, that she still loved Lu Tingyun, and that she couldn't mention a single word about Lu Tingyun in front of him.
Whether in the past, present, or future.
She could never mention Lu Tingyun in front of him for the rest of her life.
"It's nothing, I'll be more careful in the future and won't go to the window to feel the cool breeze anymore. We're going back tomorrow, let's get some rest."
Yan Ye gently touched her forehead, then embraced her and walked towards the large bed.
