Qiao Jun took Adeline back to the Qiao family's mansion. Looking at the ordinary siheyuan in front of him, he was slightly stunned. Originally, he thought that the house of a person with a status like Qiao Jun must be an ancient castle or an old house of the Lockwood family. After all, the house also represented the identity of a family. "What's wrong?" Seeing her standing there in a daze, Qiao Jun asked with concern. "I thought it would be more spectacular for people of your status to live in a house like grandpa and grandma's!" "Xiaowan, don't judge a book by its cover!" After that, Ye Chen whistled at her and walked toward the door. Qiao Jun just smiled at her and said, "You like this place!" After that, he pulled Adeline's hand and walked inside. "Hello, Sir. Nice to meet you, Young Master Ye!" The servants of the old house greeted them respectfully. It was obvious that Qiao Jun had great prestige in this family. "This is
Next, Ye Chen brought Adeline with him as they strolled around the Qiao Clan's courtyard. As Ye Chen had said, the Qiao Clan's courtyard was indeed a different world. Looking outside, it was just a simple siheyuan. But when he walked in, he knew that this siheyuan covered an area of at least a few hundred acres. It was very similar to the mansions of the ancient officials and nobles. The houses were scattered and orderly around. If he wanted to finish visiting all of them, he was afraid that he would not be able to walk without a day. "What do you think? Do you feel like you've traveled through the ancient imperial palace?" Ye Chen took the camera and kept taking pictures of the surrounding scenery. Although he was very familiar with this place, he was tired of watching it. "Well, if I change into a new set of clothes and stand here, I will really think that I have time-travel!" No wonder people online said that the place they wanted to go most in their li
"Okay, sir!" A pungent scent wafted from the kitchen to Qin Ye's nose. He couldn't help but stick his head into the kitchen. Looking at the dishes on the table that had already been fried, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Why didn't he have a share of such exquisite delicacies? As Qin Ye thought about it, he felt extremely sad in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. He could only vent it in his heart. A few minutes later, Qiao Jun changed into a new home-cooked meal and saw that Qin Ye was still standing in the living room. "Why haven't you gone back yet?" "I asked Brother Qin to stay for dinner!" Adeline came out with two bowls of fried dishes and heard Qiao Jun's words. After hearing Adeline's words, Qiao Jun nodded and turned his head to look at Qin Ye, who was standing at the side. Qin Ye's body trembled and he looked at Adeline with a smile. "First Miss, I suddenly remembered that there is a social engagement tonight,
"Sir!" "What is it?" "There's a client called Min Lan outside who wants to see you. Look..." As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Ziyou's hand, which was holding the porcelain spoon, froze slightly. She raised her head and looked at Qiao Jun, who was sitting opposite the table. The moment Adeline heard the name Min Lan, he abruptly raised his head and looked at Ye Chen. He recalled that Ye Chen was Qiao Jun's nephew. Could it be that the Min Lan that Qin Ye was talking about was her godmother? Ye Chen was also shocked by Qin Ye's words. Seeing that Qiao Jun didn't speak for a long time, he stood up and said with a smile, "I'm going out for a while!" "Sit down!" Qiao Jun then raised his head and said faintly to Qin Ye, "Take Miss Min to the study first. I'll be right there!" "Yes, sir!" Qin Ye looked at Qiao Jun, who had no expression on her face, and he was very confused. Shouldn't Mr. George be absent? "Take your time. I'm g
In the study room of the Lu's residence, smoke swirled, and a strong smell of smoke approached. Nicholas sat on the chair in front of the desk, smoking one cigarette after another. They hadn't seen each other for a few days. In an instant, Nicholas had aged more than ten years. One of his sons was still alive, while the other made him lose his life. No matter how good his mentality was, he wouldn't be able to withstand such a big blow. "Stop smoking. Your health is more important!" After that, Martha extinguished the remaining half of the cigarette in Nicholas's hand in the ashtray, and her eyes were full of pain. Only then did Nicholas slowly turn his head. Looking at his wife, who had lost quite a bit of her hair after not seeing her for a few days, he felt even more guilty. She patted the back of her hand gently and said, "I'm sorry to make you worry about me!" Martha pulled a stool over and sat down in front of her husband. She said softly, "Min
Mu Yan looked at the rolling mountains in front of him. They had been searching here for nearly a week, and they were only one step away from turning the whole mountain upside down. "Young Master Yan, what should we do? We've already searched the vicinity, but there's no news of our young master." A man walked up to Mu Yan and asked anxiously. However, on the other side of the mountain, in a shabby village, Mo Zixiao and Xu Yuan were sitting outside, basking in the sun. "Brother Mo, do you feel better?" He had been here for a few days. The skin on Mo Zixiao's body was almost healed, but he was weak. It was very hard for him to do it for a long time. "Still the same!" "How could this be? It doesn't make sense!" Xu Yuan clutched his head and said worriedly. She didn't know why, but she always felt very uneasy these days, especially the people in this village. She always felt that those people looked at her like prey, which made her ve
In the middle of the night, the village was exceptionally quiet. Apart from the calling of insects and birds from time to time, the barking of dogs came from time to time. "Brother Mo, can you really do it?" "Don't worry, follow me closely!" Mo Zixiao held Xu Yuan's hand and left the room quietly. He took advantage of the night to quickly walk in the direction of the forest. In the past few days, while they were not paying attention, he had almost touched the exit of the village, but all of this was done secretly. "Ah..." He tripped over something and stumbled to the ground. Mo Zixiao hurriedly pulled her up and asked, "Did you get hurt?" Suddenly, a shout came from behind. She turned her head and saw people in the village rushing in their direction with torches in their hands. "Oh no, they're coming after us!" "Let's go!" After helping Xu Yuan up, the two of them quickly walked forward. "No, Brother Mo, you go first! I
After bidding farewell to the cold winter, Caulford City welcomed the first spring of this year. There was vitality everywhere. The big trees beside the cemetery were hanging green branches, giving people a feeling of hope. But in the slender figure in the cemetery, everything was completely out of place with her. Because her heart was dead. The moment he knew that Christiano had left, he left as well. She gently touched the face on the tombstone that she used to be so familiar with, and everything in the past sounded in her ears. The man, who had promised to protect her and take her around the world, had cruelly abandoned her without warning. She hated him! "Christiano, I hate you!" After who knew how much time had passed, Adeline finally spoke these words. Beside the bushes on the other side of the cemetery, Christiano was dressed in a black suit. A pair of sunglasses covered his handsome features, and his eyes were fixed on the petite
