Chapter 260 Did you want to take a flower bath?
There was no news about the trend of Ye Sichen. It was just about the turmoil in Country S. It was the royal civil unrest and seemed to be related to Ni’s Family. A rumor said that Mr. and Mrs. Ni were not dead.
On the next day, the news seemed to be related to Ye Sichen.
The refuge built by Ye Sichen was searched, and a man named Meng Zuo was found. The man was the tomb watcher of the refuge. However, when the tomb was investigated, there was nothing but two coffins inside, and even the remains of the owner of the tomb were missing.
The media began to focus on Ye Sichen. They said that Ye Sichen covered up the secret of the unknown for the sake of building the refuge.
At present, Ye Sichen and Uncle Zuo were under investigation in Country S.
A few days later, after the investigation, Ye Sichen and Uncle Zuo were in peace. Xia Nuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Nuan had been looking forward to seeing Ye Sichen, but he didn’t come back. Just as Xia Nuan was in a hurry to find Ye Sichen, a woman named Ge Li came to the villa suddenly. She said that Ye Sichen told her to come here as a servant. Because Auntie Lian was dismissed, Ye Sichen hired a new maid.
Since Ge Li was hired by Ye Sichen, Xia Nuan naturally believed her and asked Ramon to arrange work for Ge Li.
Ge Li did all the housework quickly. She was very diligent, but she didn’t speak very much. After working all day, Xia Nuan thought she was familiar.
“Li, have we met before?” Xia Nuan asked Ge Li friendly and cleaned the plates on the table together.
Ge Li looked up at Xia Nuan and said with a smile, “Of course, we have met before, but you didn’t know who I am.”
Hearing that, Xia Nuan immediately remembered and said, “Oh, are you the cook? No, wait, are you the female reporter? At the beginning, Wuyou and Nianci were still young. I just came here to take care of them. When I went out, I met you. You gave me a business card and told me to sell you the privacy of Ye…”
Not only did Ge Li look like the female reporter, but like the cook in that building. Ye Sichen took her to a quiet building on the countryside of Feicheng City when he was Mr. X. Ge Li was the cook over there and was also the cook in the Luo Lan’s kitchen. Now she finally knew her name was Ge Li. The reason why she had an impression was because Ge Li had a pair of extremely bright big eyes. She never forgot.
Ge Li smiled and said, “I didn’t expect that you could remember me. Yes. I’m the woman who pretended to be a journalist, but I was also the cook. In fact, I pretended to be a journalist in that year because I was ordered by Mr. Ye to test you. Fortunately, I’m glad that you didn’t provide me with privacy. So, at that time, Mr. Ye always trusted you.”
Hearing this, Xia Nuan already had no complaint. She just smiled.
“How can I forget? Your eyes are very beautiful, so I always remember.” Xia Nuan said.
“Mr. Ye also said so.” Ge Li said shyly.
Xia Nuan was stunned and then smiled.
“In fact, Mr. Ye asked me to tell you that he would come back in a few days and don’t be worried about him.” Ge Li emphasized.
Xia Nuan couldn’t help being curious, “Have you seen Mr. Ye?”
Ge Li nodded, “I went to Country S and just came back from there because the refugees needed me to cook.”
Xia Nuan hurriedly took her hand and sat down, “What’s the matter with Uncle Zuo?”
“At first, many police went into the basement of the refuge and searched the tomb. At last, they found nothing except Uncle Zuo. Later, Mr. Ye was also investigated, but there was no substantive progress. As a result, the investigation was cancelled. This is probably the case, but I suspect that the police of Country S did it deliberately. They firstly cancelled the investigation and then put on a long line to try to pull out the movements of Mr. and Mrs. Ni from Mr. Ye and Uncle Zuo.”
Xia Nuan nodded and changed the way she thought of Ge Li.
Xia Nuan also found that Ge Li would set up a telescope in her spare time and then observe the surroundings of the villa. Xia Nuan was curious and asked what Ge Li was observing.
Ge Li looked very professional and capable. She said, “Because I want to protect Mr. Ye’s privacy. I can’t let those people who have ulterior motives come here. Mrs. Ye, you know that Mr. Ye is a celebrity. Some people like to expose the celebrity’s privacy without shame and then make profits from it. Therefore, I must guard against these people for Mr. Ye.”
Xia Nuan was appreciated, “It’s very kind of you.”
“No. It’s nothing for my sake.” Ge Li smiled, put on a telescope, and continued to look around.
Xia Nuan was going to Country S. However, Ge Li repeatedly stopped her from going. Ge Li said that once she went, she might be involved in Ye Sichen. Ge Li asked her to just stay at home and wait for him.
Xia Nuan had to give up the idea of looking for Ye Sichen and stayed at home to take care of the kids.
On this day, Xia Nuan took three kids to Mi Ke’er for physical examination. Mi Ke’er seemed to be even more depressed than before. Xia Nuan knew that she must be worried about Lacy. It could be seen that Mi Ke’er still had feelings for Lacy, but she was always duplicative and unwilling to admit it.
Although Xia Nuan also held the grudge about Lacy’s calculation of Ye Sichen, she thought that Lacy was compelled and was relieved a little. Besides, Ye Sichen had forgiven Lacy. What else couldn’t she forgive?
“Dr. Mi Ke’er, an unknown gentleman has sent you roses again.” Her assistant came over and said to Xia Nuan, “It’s almost a month since today. Every day, Dr. Mi Ke’er receives flowers from the same pursuer. The card of each bunch of flowers shows four words of affectionate style, ‘Sorry, I love you’.”
“All right, move on.” Mi Ke’er interrupted the nurse impatiently.
Xia Nuan smiled and asked Mi Ke’er in a low voice, “Is that Lacy?”
As soon as Mi Ke’er heard his name, she kept silent.
During this period, Lacy came to find Mi Ke’er every day, but she ignored him. He stayed beside her patiently for a whole day, but Mi Ke’er still refused him mercilessly. So, Lacy changed the strategy. He sent her flowers every day. There was a bunch in the morning, a bunch in the afternoon and a bunch at night. In order not to disturb Mi Ke’er’s rest, he put the flowers outside the door separately. She could see them as soon as she opened the door.
“Mi Ke’er, you can’t forget him. Why don’t you give him a chance?” Xia Nuan said.
Mi Ke’er bit her lips and kept silence for a moment. Then she said, “No. I will never believe his words. I’m clear that he was what kind of person before. He was entangled with countless women every day. I don’t believe that nothing happened to him and Yu Manli. Even without Yu Manli, he still has so many mistresses. How can he move on?”
There was irony in Mi Ke’er’s tone.
Xia Nuan didn’t make a sound. Obviously, Mi Ke’er had a knot in her heart. This knot must be untied by the person who gave her. Then she would be relieved.
Since Mi Ke’er couldn’t forget Lacy, she decided to fix them up.
Xia Nuan left and called Lacy for Yu Manli’s phone number. She excused that she needed to get a mole on her face. Because Yu Manli happened to be a beauty doctor, Lacy has no doubt about Xia Nuan’s words. He gave it to her.
Xia Nuan contacted Yu Manli. But of course, they were not about talking about beauty, “Dr. Yu, if nothing really happened, and if you are innocent, you shouldn’t cheat Mi Ke’er. What do you think?”
“I didn’t mean to deceive her…” Yu Manli said.
“You can explain it to Mi Ke’er.”
Xia Nuan said mildly.
Yu Manli hung up the phone and thought about it. Then she put on her clothes and left home.
When Mi Ke’er was about to lock the door and leave the clinic, she found Yu Manli was standing outside. Mi Ke’er pretended not to see Yu Manli. She turned around and walked toward the garage. Yu Manli followed.
When Mi Ke’er was about to get on the car, Yu Manli stopped her, “I’m sorry, Dr. Mi Ke’er. I was wrong. I cheated you.”
Yu Manli stopped Mi Ke’er and showed her sincerity.
Mi Ke’er looked at Yu Manli coldly and asked with a smile, “Did Lacy ask you to come here? You go back and tell him I won’t be reunited with him.”
Yu Manli shook her head quickly and said, “No, I’m willing to come. It has nothing to do with Mr. Lacy. In fact, what I said to you on that day was all lies. At that time, Mr. Lacy’s parents were kidnapped. Those people said that if Lacey didn’t cooperate with them, they would kill his parents. Not only that, they would also catch you. Mr. Lacy wanted to protect you. He didn’t want you to get involved, so he broke up with you. What I said is true. I swear.”
“There is no need to say that. I’ve broken up with Lacy. I can’t be with him, whatever.” Mi Ke’er said firmly.
Seeing that there was no movement in her eyes, Yu Manli sighed, “Well, anyway, I have no right to interfere with Mr. Lacy’s business. I just want to say sorry to you because I lied to you. Now I confess, and I should leave. Bye.”
Mi Ke’er looked at her receding figure, and her eyes were more and more complicated. She got in the car and drove slowly.
On the next morning, when Mi Ke’er came to the clinic, she found three branches of bright roses outside the clinic. Although there were three branches, they occupied a lot of places. There was a card under each bunch of flowers. In order, one was sent at 0:00, one was sent at 2:00, and the last one was sent at 5:00. On the contrary, it could be read as 520 which means “I Love U” in Chinese.
Mi Ke’er pulled a face and opened the clinic. She told the envious assistant behind her, “Take the petals off and put them in a box.”
The assistant said with a smile, “Wow, do you want to take a flower bath?”
