Ch. 441..450
Chapter 441: Her Graveyard
Yang Feng took a picture of the tombstone.
A photo of a young woman.
Gentle, quiet, with a bright smile unique to young girls.
Tang Yiheng’s heart was struck.
"Wait here, I’ll be right there."
——
Monday.
Early in the morning, Ye Qingwan sent Zixi to school.
She handed Zixi over to her homeroom teacher, Jiang Luan, and waved goodbye to Ye Qingwan.
Ye Qingwan was about to leave when Jiang Luan stopped her. He handed her a form and said,"
"Zixi’s mom, our school is organizing an autumn outing this Friday. It’s at the amusement park in the suburbs. It’s all voluntary. Do you want Zixi to participate? If you want to participate, please sign this consent form."
"Do you want to sign it now?" Ye Qingwan asked.
"You don’t have to sign it now." Jiang Luan explained," However, you must return the receipt to me before Wednesday. They needed to count the number of people and confirm it with the amusement park."
"Alright, I’ll ask Zixi tonight. If he wants to participate, can I sign and bring it over?"
"Of course, Zixi’s mother."
After leaving school, she was about to get into the car and ask Gu Feng to send her to the company when she unexpectedly received a call from Yang Feng.
"Wanwan, I have something to tell you."
"What is it? Tell me."
Yang Feng’s voice sounded unusual, which made Ye Qingwan conclude that something must have happened to him.
This was because Yang Feng usually looked like a carefree playboy, as if he was born to be optimistic, but also as if he did not care about anything. He would never give people such negative emotions.
"I told you that I came to South City to look for my aunt, right? I’ve found the treasure now
"Ah?" Ye Qingwan was surprised. Didn’t Tang Ying pass away?
Yang Feng said that he found it. Could it be...?
"Where did you find her?"
"Aunt has passed away."
Yang Feng’s voice was deep and solemn. Although Ye Qingwan knew this fact, her heart still sank slightly when she heard him say it.
"Are you sure? Where did you find it? Can you tell me the address?"
Ye Qingwan did not know where her mother had buried Tang Ying. She was Gu Shimo’s biological mother.
Even if he had never seen it before, he still had to know where it was buried, so that it would be convenient for him to pay his respects and express his grief.
However, before that, she had to confirm it personally.
"You know Qingshan Cemetery, right?"
"Ah, is it the Qingshan Cemetery next to the West Mountain?"
Originally, Qingshan Cemetery was planned to be a public cemetery, but because it was not open to the public, the Cemetery Administration later designated an area on the adjacent West Mountain as a cemetery.
In the past, the cemetery was only two to three thousand square meters per square meter. Now, it had soared to two hundred thousand. The people in the cemetery administration could not figure out why Qingshan Cemetery guarded such a large treasure and no longer sold it to the public.
"Yes, that’s the place." At the back of the mountain, someone had built a separate cemetery for Little Aunt. It was very beautiful."
"Alright, I’ll find time to take a look as soon as possible."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Feng took another deep look at the tombstone in front of him.
The mountain wind blew, causing Yang Feng and Tang Yiheng’s clothes to flutter. View the correct content at NovelFire
The cemetery was indeed very beautiful, but many years had passed. Due to the neglect of the management staff, many weeds had grown around the tombstones, making it look particularly desolate.
After Tang Yiheng rushed over to meet up with Yang Feng, he began to remove the weeds around him and clean up the tombstone.
"I’m sorry we’re too late."
Tang Yiheng, who only knew how to hold a pen and an instrument, did not mind dirtying his hands and clothes with such rough work. He insisted on cleaning the cemetery with Yang Feng. NovelFire
"Other than this, we don’t know what else we can do for you, auntie."
After the two of them tidied up, Tang Ying’s grave looked much more pleasing to the eye.
After dealing with all this, Yang Feng called Ye Qingwan.
Seeing Yang Feng call Ye Qingwan, Tang Yiheng walked away and called home.
"Dad, I’m Yi Heng."
"Oh, Yi Heng."
In the Tang Corporation, Tang Songkang made a gesture to stop listening to his subordinate’s report and picked up Tang Yiheng’s phone.
Chapter 442: Hope She’s Alive
With Tang Yiheng’s personality, he would never make a boring phone call.
There must be something important that she wanted to talk to him about.
Therefore, as long as Tang Yiheng called, Tang Songkang would give priority to his son’s call under any circumstances.
"Yang Feng and I have already found my aunt’s grave."
The Tang family had already mentally prepared themselves, so Tang Yiheng did not need to lay down the foundation like Yang Feng did.
"What? Yi Heng, what did you say you found?"
On the other end of the phone, Tang Songkang suppressed the excitement in his heart.
Even though he had already guessed that it would be like this, he still couldn’t help but be moved when he heard it from Tang Yiheng.
"Aunt Tang Ying has indeed passed away. It should have been almost thirty years."
Because the photo on the tombstone and the photo in their hands looked about the same age.
"Ah, ah..."
Tang Songkang seemed to find it hard to believe, but also hard to accept. He couldn’t tell his true emotions now, and he was a little incoherent.
"Alright, I understand. You haven’t told Grandpa about this, right?"
"Not yet."
Tang Yiheng seemed to be a little hesitant.
"I didn’t know if Grandpa would be shocked again, so I called you first."
In Tang Bai Yong’s heart, perhaps he was still hoping that the daughter he was once most proud of was still alive?
Tang Yiheng couldn’t bear to talk about it, nor did he have the courage to do so.
Isn’t it better to say it in person?
"Alright, I understand. You guys keep your mouth shut first. Let me think about it first."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Songkang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It was like waiting for the other shoe to land on the ground. Now, the shoe finally fell.
The things he was worried about would never happen again.
After Tang Yiheng ended the call, Yang Feng and Ye Qingwan also ended the call.
"Are you calling your dad?" Yang Feng asked.
With Tang Yiheng’s personality, it wasn’t hard to guess.
"Yes."
Tang Yiheng nodded.
"This is a serious matter. Of course, we have to inform him immediately. Besides, I can’t make up my mind about this matter. You didn’t call the old man, did you?"
"No, I haven’t."
Yang Feng seemed to be quite worried.
"I told you first because I wanted to ask for your opinion. I’m also worried that if I tell Grandpa directly, he won’t be able to take the blow."
If you don’t forget, there will be echoes.
Some persistent people would often hold onto the same thought, and in the end, they really got the feedback they wanted.
Unsurprisingly, Elder Tang was such a person.
Even though he also felt that Tang Ying might not be alive anymore.
However, he had to bury this thought and hypnotize himself that Tang Ying was still alive in some corner of the world.
One day, they would meet again.
However, it was definitely not a case of a white man sending off a black man.
"Yes, you did the right thing."
Tang Yiheng agreed.
"Just now, my dad also reminded me on the phone not to tell the old man. He also asked me to tell you not to tell the old master rashly."
"Don’t worry. Do you really think I’m a kid who doesn’t know anything?"Yang Feng said. View the correct content at NovelFire
"It’s best to talk about this slowly in person and step by step."
When he spoke in person, he could carefully observe the other party’s expression and adjust his countermeasures according to the other party’s psychological endurance.
First, he had to make some preparations before he could express himself tactfully. This required some language skills, and it was difficult to do it over the phone.
"Yes."
Tang Yiheng looked at the photo on the tombstone and said to himself,"
"The saddest thing in this world is probably that I thought you were still alive somewhere in the world after you left me. However, he didn’t expect that we would be separated forever."
Yang Feng also turned his head and looked at the photo of the deceased.
"Aunty, you’re so heartless. You actually have the heart to leave all the pain to the living."
The two of them were sorrowful, but they also seemed to have their own thoughts.
He stood in front of the tombstone for a long time.
"Alright, let’s kowtow again and leave."Tang Yiheng said.
They had been delayed here for too long.
Chapter 443: He Had Knew
The deceased had passed away, and Tang Yiheng felt that he had fulfilled his duty. He should cherish his time more and spend it on meaningful things.
"Alright."
Yang Feng’s mission had also been completed. If he continued to linger, it would only cause sadness. NovelFire
The two of them were serious. They respectfully knelt down and kowtowed three times. They said goodbye to Tang Ying solemnly and set off for South City.
When they left the cemetery, they might still be immersed in the emotions of life and death.
Therefore, they didn’t realize that a black car had left quietly not far from the parking lot after they left.
——
At night, after settling her little descendant Zixi down, Ye Qingwan washed up and went to bed. She then made a video call with Gu Shimo, who was on a business trip.
"I was just about to call you when you called."
Coincidentally, Gu Shimo had just finished washing up and climbed into bed. He found a comfortable position to lean against and video-call her.
"We really have a telepathic connection."
Seeing that her hair was still wet, Gu Shimo reminded her," Didn’t you blow-dry your hair? Remember to blow dry your hair before sleeping."
"You blow for me."
Ye Qingwan teased him.
"Then I’ll buy a ticket and come back immediately?"
"Forget it, I’m just joking with you."
After saying some unimportant words, Ye Qingwan changed the topic and got to the point.
"By the way, Brother Shi Mo, let me tell you something."
"What is it?"
Gu Shimo raised his handsome eyebrows as if he was filled with anticipation.
"Is it what I think it is?"
"What are you thinking about?"
"It seems that it isn’t. Why don’t you tell me what it is?"
"Brother Shi Mo, you’re a..." Do you know who your biological mother is?"
Ye Qingwan asked tentatively.
Gu Shimo had obviously not expected this to be related to this matter and was momentarily speechless.
Ye Qingwan noticed that he was not in the right mood, so she continued,"
"I’ve already found out where your biological mother is buried. When you come back, I’ll accompany you to see her, okay?"
Gu Shimo was silent for a long time. It was hard to tell how sad he was, but he could no longer maintain his smile.
"Wanwan, actually, I already knew where my mother was buried."
Gu Shimo’s tone was calm." It’s just that I haven’t had the time to tell you."
It turned out that after he found out that his biological mother was killed, he had started to investigate the cemetery near South City.
The method he used was similar to Yang Feng’s. In addition, he had the advantage of timing and location, so he spent much less time than Yang Feng.
"I don’t know why, but when I found her grave and saw her photo, I didn’t feel too much. Nominally, she’s my biological mother, but I really don’t have any feelings for her. I stood there for a long time and realized that I had nothing to say to her. I didn’t even pull out a blade of grass around her tombstone."
When he said this, he could not tell what kind of emotion Gu Shimo was feeling.
To him, although Tang Ying gave birth to him, to him who had grown up through too much suffering and trauma, he was still a child.
They had strong independence and autonomy. They were less dependent and attached to their parents who played a supporting role.
In fact, Ye Qingwan could understand this feeling.
For example, if Zixi had not found his biological father, he would not have much of a feeling when he grew up and found out who his biological father was.
"I saw that her tombstone didn’t even have a name, and it was covered in weeds. I thought that no one would pay attention to her anymore. I didn’t want to disturb her, so I didn’t move the grave away."
"Brother Shi Mo!"
Ye Qingwan felt the same way. She wanted to comfort him, but she didn’t know what to say.
If he was in front of her, she could still hug him.
It didn’t necessarily have to be expressed by wailing or heart-wrenching. It was the real pain and suffering.
On the contrary, those who were hidden under the calm face and could not be expressed in words were the most bitter and heavy.
Wanwan, I’m fine."
He was always able to accurately sense her feelings, as if he was truly connected to her.
"By the way, how did you find that place?"
"It wasn’t me. Yang Feng found it and told me."
Chapter 444: Unrelated Person
Seeing that Gu Shimo’s mood was still stable, Ye Qingwan asked him tentatively,
"Brother Shi Mo, do you know your birth mother’s background?"
"I know."
Since he wanted to find his birth mother, he naturally had to find out her background.
It was also because he knew the identity of his birth mother that he acted so calmly.
"The reason why I didn’t tell you was because I felt that since my biological mother has passed away, the others have nothing to do with me."
The truth was often cruel.
It turned out that after Tang Ying was pregnant with him, she was put under house arrest by Old Master Tang. Later, Tang Ying escaped and traveled thousands of miles for love.
In the end, it was not the lovers who finally got married, but she lost her life.
If it wasn’t for Old Master Tang stopping this marriage, Tang Ying wouldn’t have ended up like this. And he would not have been born into a deformed family.
If she didn’t insist on giving birth to him, Tang Ying wouldn’t have died from childbirth.
If Old Master Tang was the murderer who indirectly killed Tang Ying, wasn’t he the same?
The Tang family did not welcome his arrival, and he also did not like the entire Tang family.
Just treat him as a stranger. No love, no hate, no gratitude, no resentment.
"In fact, when I went to the capital last time, I heard the Yang family talking about your biological mother. I guessed that Tang Ying should be your biological mother. I’ve always wanted to tell you, but I never found the chance."
"Yeah, I’m fine. Wanwan, you don’t have to be so careful and nervous."
Gu Shimo smiled at her.
"I’m a businessman. So you can think of me as a very realistic person. I will only cherish and grasp the things in front of me. All my energy and love will only be poured into the person closest to me. I don’t even want to think about anything else. I can’t be bothered to care about meaningless things."
"If that’s the case, you’re so far away from me now. Doesn’t that mean that I’ve become someone you can’t be bothered to care about?"
Ye Qingwan asked him on purpose in order to calm her emotions.
"Is that why I said I wanted to get a certificate and stamp with you? With this marriage contract, no matter how far apart we are, legally, you are the closest person to me. How about it? Think about it?"
"Brother Shi Mo, you’re getting more and more familiar with this trick of yours."
"No matter how skilled you are, it’s useless. You won’t fall for it."
At the mention of this, Gu Shimo’s tone immediately returned to his usual relaxed and cheerful tone.
"I’ve already thought of the gift I’ll give you when I go back from my business trip. When we meet at the Civil Affairs Bureau, I’ll give you the gift, okay?"
"Why go through so much trouble? You’re my best gift."
Ye Qingwan was unmoved.
Gu Shimo sighed. NovelFire
"This is really...Tang Sanzang had to go through eighty-one difficulties to obtain the true scripture. Do I have to propose 81 times before I can marry you?"
Ye Qingwan laughed.
"Brother Shi Mo, it’s getting late. Go to bed early. I’m going to sleep too."
"Look at you. You’re changing the topic again. You said that I’m skilled in tricks, but I think your tricks are even better than mine. The longest road that I, Gu Shimo, have walked in this lifetime, wouldn’t be the long road of proposing to Ye Qingwan, right?"
"That’s not bad. When we’re old, we can write a book about our love. What do you think?"Ye Qingwan smiled mischievously.
"Just torture me. When I get back, see how I punish you. Since you tortured my heart, I can only torture your body."
He made an evil gesture at her." I’m asking you if you’re afraid." NovelFire
Ye Qingwan’s face was burning with embarrassment. She was too embarrassed to continue the video call with him.
"I’m really going to sleep. I won’t talk to you anymore. Good night."
Without waiting for his reply, she hung up the phone and threw it aside. She pulled the blanket over herself and covered her head with it. She was so embarrassed that she couldn’t even show her face.
——
In the capital.
Tang Songkang went to the sanatorium to visit Old Master Tang.
When the old man got old, he hated falling down the most, so the hospital suggested that he should be transferred to a sanatorium for a few more days after receiving treatment.
Chapter 445: Enrage Him
Old Master Tang moved into his family’s sanatorium, which was equipped with all kinds of advanced equipment.
This way, there would be someone to take care of him, and he wouldn’t have to trouble his family. Tang Baiyong also felt that it was quite good.
Tang Songkang was usually busy with work, but he also tried to find time to visit the old man.
There was no filial son in front of the bed for a long time. Tang Songkang had been trying to avoid being gossiped about.
Now that he knew that Tang Ying had passed away, he was in a relaxed mood. He finished his work early and drove to the sanatorium to see Tang Baiyong.
He planned to tell Tang Baiyong about Tang Ying’s death at the right time.
Who knew that this good mood suddenly took a sharp turn at the door of Tang Baiyong’s ward.
Private hospitals were different from public hospitals. There were fewer people here, and it was very suitable for patients who needed to recuperate.
Therefore, he stood by the door and could easily hear the conversation inside.
In the ward were Tang Baiyong and He Yutang, his confidant who had followed him for many years.
He Yutang’s original name was not this.
He was originally just a small hooligan, but later, by a strange combination of factors, he accidentally caught Tang Baiyong’s eye and followed him all the way until now.
It could be said that Tang Baiyong was the benefactor of this little hooligan.
Later, he simply changed his name to He Yutang.
It meant that Tang Baiyong was his second parent, and he only came back to life after meeting Tang Baiyong.
" They all say that ’old people who don’t die are thiefs’," Tang Bai Yong’s voice sounded.
"I’m already at this age. There are some things that should be arranged. When the time comes, I’ll be on my way quickly so that I won’t be annoying."
"Old Master, what are you saying?"
He Yutang was already over 60 years old, and his son had done everything he needed to do. f.(r)eew ebnovll.com
"You want to live a long life. I still have to follow you for another 30 years."
Tang Baiyong laughed heartily.
"People have birth, aging, illness, and death. As long as you don’t live in vain, you don’t have to live in vain, right? I know that you are loyal to me. It’s also because of this that I’ve entrusted you with the task, because you’re the only person I trust the most."
"Please don’t use the word ’will.’ I met Tang just as usual, following your instructions and doing things for you. Old Master, tell me what you need to meet Dunn for. Although Yutang’s body is not flexible, Yutang still has his sons and grandchildren. They are also loyal to the old master for their entire lives. They will go through fire and water for you."
Tang Baiyong waved his hand at him.
"It’s not that serious. When a man is about to die, his words are kind. I was like this, I wanted to be a chaoswoman. Because of my stubbornness, Xiao Ying broke off her relationship with me and left for a foreign land. Later, I didn’t go to find her because of my face. He wondered how she was doing now. She was really a heartless girl."
Speaking up to this point, a trace of sadness welled up in Tang Baiyong’s heart.
"But no matter what, she was the daughter that I, Tang Bai Yong, was most proud of. I want you to find Xiao Ying and her descendants as soon as possible. I plan to hand over the Tang Empire to her and her descendants to make up for what I owe her for so many years. When the time comes, I hope you can support them, just like how you supported me. Can you do it?"
He Yutang was about to speak when heavy footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.
"Old Master, I’ll go take a look."
He Yutang was about to turn around to open the door when a voice came from the door.
"Dad, it’s Song Kang. I’m coming in!"
Before his voice fell, the door opened and Tang Songkang appeared.
"Eldest Young Master!" Seeing that it was Tang Songkang, He Yutang couldn’t say anything.
Old Master Tang’s expression turned serious. His face was dignified without anger, and his tone was slightly reproachful.
"What’s the matter?"
"I’m sorry, dad. I just got some shocking news, so I rushed here to tell you.""
"Tell me."
Tang Baiyong’s expression didn’t relax because of this. View the correct content at NovelFire.
Tang Songkang was calm and said,"
"Dad, it’s confirmed that Little Ying has passed away. She was buried alone in a barren mountain. Other than a photo on the tombstone, there was no name."
Chapter 446: There Are So Many People Looking For The Grave
"What did you say?" Tang Bai Yong’s eyes widened in anger."
"Yang Feng and Yi Heng personally went to Xiao Ying’s grave to confirm it."
Afraid that it wasn’t exciting enough, Tang Songkang turned on his phone and handed the tombstone photo sent by Tang Yiheng to Tang Baiyong.
" Puff!" Seeing the picture on the tombstone, Tang Baiyong was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
He Yutang shouted," Old Master." He didn’t have time to argue with Tang Songkang. He quickly pressed the call for help while supporting Tang Baiyong’s fallen body.
Seeing Tang Baiyong faint from shock, Tang Songkang felt a sense of pleasure.
All these years, he had done his best, and he believed that as Tang Baiyong’s adopted son, he hadn’t let him down. He had worked hard for the company, opened up new territory, and built up a number of territories.
Even if there was no credit, there was hard work.
He thought that the old master would at least take him into consideration for all that he had done.
Who would have thought that he would completely exclude himself, thinking only of his daughter who had defected and left home, and even wanted to entrust the entire Tang Empire to Tang Ying’s posthumous son.
Then what was he? Was his many years of hard work a joke?
In his anger, Tang Songkang no longer cared about Tang Baiyong’s feelings and directly told the news of Tang Ying’s death.
——
The next day, Ye Qingwan went to Qingshan Cemetery.
Thanks to Yang Feng’s guidance, she successfully found the exact location of Tang Ying’s tomb.
Tang Ying’s grave stood alone in the forest, looking particularly desolate.
Fortunately, Yang Feng and Tang Yiheng had come to clean it up before, so it looked a little better.
Looking at the photo on the tombstone, she confirmed that it was indeed the woman in the photo she had seen in the study at home.
Pure and beautiful, a peerless beauty.
She was originally born into a good family and had a good education. It was the time when a young girl yearned for a beautiful family. However, fate played a joke on her and took away everything she had. In the end, she even slept in this deserted forest.
"Aunt Tang Ying, did you see my mother in the sky? With her company, you won’t be lonely and afraid anymore, right?"
Seeing Tang Ying reminded her of her mother.
In fact, her mother’s fate was not much different from Tang Ying’s. In contrast, Ye Qingwan’s mother left with her father, unlike Tang Ying who was so lonely.
He did not know if this was considered lucky or unlucky.
After staying in front of Tang Ying’s grave for a while, Ye Qingwan saw that it was about time and said,"
"Auntie, I’ll come visit you with Brother Shi Mo and Zixi next time, okay?"
When she went down the mountain, she unexpectedly met Xue Yunfei.
"Why are you here?"
Ye Qingwan looked suspicious.
"Why? You can come, but I can’t?"
Xue Yunfei said disdainfully and then walked up the mountain in her high heels.
Ye Qingwan guessed that she must have heard the news and came to confirm Tang Ying’s grave.
This was indeed the case.
Previously, when Yang Feng and Tang Yiheng came, they didn’t know that they had already been followed by the Wandering Know-it-all that Xue Yunfei had contacted earlier.
Xue Yunfei had rushed over after receiving the news. View the correct content at NovelFire.
However, that Wandering Know-it-all didn’t follow them up the mountain, so he didn’t know which tomb Yang Feng and the others paid their respects to.
Xue Yunfei was too impatient and ran over in her high heels.
She crawled up and down the cemetery until her legs were about to break.
Later, she spent money to ask the cemetery administrator for a pair of cloth shoes. She even received a piece of news from the administrator.
"There have been a lot of people looking for people in our cemetery these past two days."
Xue Yunfei used her honey trap and told her that there was a special tomb at the back of the mountain.
Therefore, Xue Yunfei followed the clues and found Tang Ying’s grave.
When she saw the photo, she knew that she had found the right person.
She finally found Tang Ying. NovelFire.c(o)(m)
However, there was no news left on the tombstone. She did not know who buried her, when she was buried, or what it had to do with her.
Chapter 447: Coincidence Encounter in the Cemetery
If she hadn’t seen Tang Ying’s photo, she probably wouldn’t have known who the tomb belonged to.
Seeing Xue Yunfei appear at Qingshan Cemetery, Ye Qingwan was suspicious. She stopped her plan to go home and turned around to follow Xue Yunfei.
He saw that Xue Yunfei had finally found Tang Ying’s grave and even took a photo with her phone.
Ye Qingwan didn’t know what her purpose was and how much she knew about Tang Ying.
However, there was something very strange. Where did Xue Yunfei get this news from?
Ye Qingwan had just received the news herself, and Xue Yunfei had also arrived.
She only found out about it after Yang Feng told her.
Then what was Xue Yunfei’s source of information?
After going down the mountain, she couldn’t wait to go home. As soon as she got into the car, she couldn’t wait to call Yang Feng.
"Yang Feng, I also came to Qingshan Cemetery today. Guess who else I saw?"
"Who is it?"
"Xue Yunfei."
"Xue Yunfei?"
Yang Feng was also surprised." Why would she be there? Are you sure she’s going after my aunt’s grave?"
"I’m sure. I only called you after I specifically confirmed it. Don’t you think it’s strange?"
It’s really strange to be in the middle of the sea She knew what she was up to. She just wanted to find out where my aunt was and then go to Grandpa to get credit. However, how did she know that her aunt was no longer alive? How did she find Qingshan Cemetery so accurately?" NovelFire
"Especially the timing."
Ye Qingwan continued to throw out her doubts.
"I just got the news from you yesterday and rushed over. What a coincidence that she’s here too. Could it be that she just got the news too?"
If that was the case, there was a high chance that the news had been leaked from Yang Feng or Tang Yiheng.
"It wasn’t me." NovelFire
Yang Feng guessed what she was thinking and immediately clarified for himself.
"Wait, I’ll ask Yi Heng. Did this kid accidentally get information from him? Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be. Although Xue Yunfei had taken the initiative to ruin the marriage, Yi Heng did not like Xue Yunfei to begin with."
"Okay, then you can ask. If she didn’t get the news from the two of you, then she still has to check her source."
Ye Qingwan didn’t say it too directly. Smart people didn’t need to say it so clearly. With a little nudge, she could understand what she meant.
"Alright, I’ll ask him."
After hanging up, Yang Feng immediately called Tang Yiheng.
"Brother Yi Heng, other than your dad, did you tell anyone else that we found Youngest Aunt’s grave?"
"No, I haven’t."
"Are you sure?"
"Is there a problem?" Tang Yiheng was keenly aware that something was wrong.
"You didn’t tell Xue Yunfei?"
Yang Feng then told him about Ye Qingwan meeting Xue Yunfei at Qingshan Cemetery today.
"It wasn’t me."
He thought it was a big deal, but Tang Yiheng didn’t think much of it.
"Why do you think I told Xue Yunfei? Are you afraid that you have some misunderstanding about us?"
"That’s not it. Life is bound to have accidents."Yang Feng laughed.
"Of course, we have to confirm with the person involved and then confirm the direction of the investigation. Since you said that it wasn’t you, then the news didn’t leak out from you or me. Then where did she get her information from? It can’t be that your or my phone has been bugged?"
Tang Yiheng scoffed at his speculation.
"Have you watched too many TV dramas? Instead of suspecting this, it would be better to suspect that one of us is being targeted. I will pay attention to whether there is a tail behind me in the next two days, and so will you."
"Understood."
——
Ye Qingwan went to pick up Zixi from school and handed the signed consent form to the teacher.
After Jiang Luan told her about this last time, Ye Qingwan asked for Zixi’s opinion at night. Zixi was overjoyed at first.
Then, he suddenly thought of something and asked her,
"Mom, does that mean you can’t go with me?"
That Friday was a working day.
The children in the kindergarten were still young and had to be accompanied by their parents.
Chapter 448: Flattery
If they were determined to go, most office workers would have to apply for leave from the company. The school would need to confirm the number of people and the fees first.
Knowing that Zixi was thinking about her again, Ye Qingwan’s heart ached for his thoughtfulness.
"Mom, it’s okay. I don’t need to ask for leave from anyone. You just have to tell Mom, do you want to go?"
"Mommy, are you really okay?"
Zixi repeatedly confirmed with her.
"If it doesn’t affect Mom’s work, I want to go on an autumn outing with Mom."
"Alright, then we’ll go."
There were still three days until the autumn outing, and Zixi was already counting the days with her fingers in excitement.
It was the same today. The first thing he said to Ye Qingwan when he opened his eyes in the morning was,"
"Mom, there are three more days until the autumn outing."
After school, Ye Qingwan came to pick him up.
"Mom, I want to go home early and go to bed so that when I wake up, it will be a new day."
Ye Qingwan pinched his nose." Do you really want to join the autumn outing so badly?""
"Yes, yes, yes."
Ye Zixi nodded vigorously.
"Our classmates have prepared a lot of food. We can have a picnic together and share delicious food with each other. With my friends and my mother accompanying me, I feel so happy."
"Yes... Speaking of which, I haven’t prepared food for you for the autumn outing. Why don’t we go to the supermarket later and see what you want to bring?"
Ye Zixi shook his head.
"You don’t have to go to the supermarket to buy it, Mom. Don’t we have a lot of food at home? Just bring anything."
Ye Qingwan was about to speak when her phone rang. NovelFire
She gestured to Zixi, indicating that they could discuss this later. She had to answer the phone first.
The call was from Yu Xin.
"Yu Xin, is there something wrong?"
Ye Qingwan really didn’t want to answer her call.
However, Yu Xin was already overly suspicious, so Ye Qingwan had to pick up her call to prevent her from making all sorts of guesses.
"Qing Wan."
On the other end of the phone, Yu Xin’s tone sounded normal.
"Are you outside now? If it’s convenient, can you come to my house? I have something for you."
"What is it?"
"You’ll know when you come. If it’s not convenient for you, I can send it to your house."
"How are you going to take the child? I’ll come over."
Ye Qingwan didn’t know what she was up to, so she had to go there herself.
"I just happened to pick Zixi up from school. I’ll come over later."
"Alright, I’ll wait for you."
"Mom, is it Auntie Yu Xin?"
Zixi asked curiously.
"Yes."
"Are we going to her house now?"
"Yes, she asked me to get something. I don’t know what it is."
"Auntie Yu Xin burned her hand last time. I don’t know if she’s recovered. Mom, I’ll go with you. I want to see my little brother."
Zixi especially liked Little Yu Sheng. Seeing him was like seeing her when she was young.
He looked at Yu Xin like he looked at Ye Qingwan.
Last time, Yu Xin burned her hand, and he felt that she was very pitiful.
At that time, Yu Xin was also good to him. Even though she was injured, she still did not forget to entertain him, a small guest. He had a good impression of her.
"Alright, we’ll just go and take a look at the little brother and come out."
Ye Qingwan took Zixi to Leng Xiao’s house.
Upon seeing Yu Xin, Zi Xi greeted her very politely.
"Hello, Aunt Yuxin. Have you recovered from your injuries last time?"
Yu Xin looked at the little sensible and clever child in front of her. As a mother, how could she not like him?
"Thank you, Zixi. You still miss Auntie so much."
Yu Xin showed him her burnt left hand.
After using the medicine, it has been much better. It doesn’t hurt anymore."
On the back of her left hand, the blisters had disappeared, but the skin had not fully recovered. There were purplish-red spots, and it did not look good. NovelFire
"Auntie, you have to be more careful in the future. Don’t burn yourself again. Wear gloves."
Zi Xi said like a little adult.
Chapter 449: Chapter 449-Autumn Tour
"Okay, I’ll listen to you."
After greeting Yu Xin, Zi Xi ran to the room to see Yu Yusheng, leaving Ye Qingwan and Yu Xin in the living room.
"I’m really sorry to trouble you to make a trip here."
Yu Xin took out a two-layered food box from the fridge and opened the lid. The top layer was neatly arranged round sliced Sushi, and the bottom layer was a beautiful golden egg roll.
"When I went to the market to buy vegetables today, I saw that eggs were on sale, so I bought a lot. After that, I saw that the fridge couldn’t even fit it, so I thought of making an egg roll. Later, he realized that he had done too much. It was all thanks to your help last time. I don’t have anything to repay you with, so I just wanted to give you some. Please don’t mind."
Ye Qingwan looked at the scrumptious and delicious Sushi and Egg Rolls in the food box.
These two things were time-consuming and troublesome to make, especially the omelet. It required some special skills and was difficult to master the essence.
"Why are you doing such complicated things when your hand is injured? Just do it as simple as possible."
"I was feeling a lot of pain two days ago, but it doesn’t hurt much now, so I’m fine."
Yu Xin closed the lid again and handed the food box to her. NovelFire
"I don’t like to owe others favors. But I also know that you don’t lack anything, so I can only make some food to express my gratitude."
"Yu Xin, you’re treating me as an outsider."
"Aren’t you treating me as an outsider? You’re just being soft-spoken. This way, I can be justified when I ask you for help next time."
Zixi happened to finish watching Yu Sheng and came out. When she saw the things in the food box, she asked Yu Xin,
"Auntie, how long will the shelf life be if I put this in the refrigerator? Can you keep it until Friday?"
"Why do you have to wait until Friday?"
Yu Xin asked.
"I want to share it with my friends during the autumn outing. It looks delicious."
Yu Xin smiled and said,"So you’re going for an autumn outing on Friday?" Then I’ll make it for you on Thursday, and you can bring it over, okay?"
Ye Qingwan quickly stopped him. Yu Xin, it’s already very hard for you to take care of the child. Don’t waste your energy on these things. They’re sold in convenience stores, so it’s very convenient for us to buy them."
Then she said to Zixi,"Zixi, if you want to eat this, Mom can make it for you at home.""
Zi Xi immediately nodded.
"Yes, Auntie Yu Xin, it’s been hard on you to take care of your brother. I can also learn how to cook this myself. When I learn it, I’ll cook it for Dad and Mom. I’ll also let Auntie taste my cooking."
"Our Zixi is awesome!" Yu Xin laughed. Where are you going for the autumn outing?"
"To Happy Valley."
After talking for a while, Yusheng started crying in the room. She didn’t know if he had peed or something else.
Ye Qingwan didn’t want to stay any longer. She thanked Yu Xin and left the Leng family with Zixi and the food box.
Yu Xin carried Yu Sheng to the door and watched Ye Qingwan and Zi Xi leave the house. The smile on her face immediately disappeared.
The reason why she was so attentive to Ye Qingwan was because she had received a hint from the mysterious person on the phone last time.
The other party asked her to get closer to Ye Qingwan and her son so that she could know the other party’s movements as soon as possible.
It could also make the other party lower their guard and vigilance against her.
This was also why she was willing to spend time making the troublesome Sushi and Egg Rolls. It was to pave the way for the later plans.
There was always a return to what you put in. This sentence was confirmed.
He didn’t expect to find out from Zixi that he was going to have an autumn outing on Friday.
Ignoring Yu Sheng’s cries, Yu Xin put the child down and immediately took out her phone to dial the mysterious number.
"I just received news that Ye Zixi’s school is organizing an autumn trip to Happy Valley this Friday."
The mysterious person told her to report to her if she found anything related to Ye Zixi.
"Is that so? That’s really good news."
said You-Know-Who approvingly.
"This is a good opportunity. I’ll get someone to make arrangements to create some chaos in the Valley of Happiness and kidnap Ye Zixi. I’m not afraid that Ye Qingwan won’t give in."
"There are only two days left until Friday. Time is tight."
"Don’t worry, two days is enough. Just wait for the good news."
Chapter 450: Zixi’s Missing
After leaving Yu Xin’s house, Ye Qingwan brought Zixi to the car.
Zixi was still a child, and at this time, she felt a little hungry, so she asked Ye Qingwan,"
"Mom, can I have a bite of the food inside?"
He pointed at the food box on the front seat. NovelFire
Ye Qingwan asked him,"Zixi, are you hungry?""
Zixi rubbed her stomach." A little.""
Ye Qingwan looked out of the window and said to Gu Feng,"
"I remember that there’s a convenience store on the street around the corner, right?"
Gu Feng replied,"Yes."
"Alright, stop over there."
After instructing Gu Feng, Ye Qingwan asked Zi Xi,"
"There’s a convenience store ahead. They sell oden and roasted sausages. Do you want to eat?"
Ye Zixi didn’t think much of it even if Ye Qingwan didn’t say it.
At her mention, Ye Zixi seemed to have smelled the aroma of oden and roasted sausages in the air, and instantly forgot about the food in the food box.
"Ah, ah, can I really eat oden and roasted sausages?"
"Of course. Will Mom buy it for you later?"
"Alright, alright."
Zixi was overjoyed and clapped enthusiastically.
Gu Feng stopped the car at the next intersection. Ye Qingwan and Zi Xi went to the convenience store to buy a bowl of oden and roasted sausage.
Ye Zixi ate to her heart’s content. She sat on the chair and shook her legs, unable to stop.
When they got home, Ye Zixi said that she was going to take a shower and sleep early.
Ye Qingwan handed the lunchbox to Gu Feng and said,"
"You can feed it to the stray cats and dogs in the community."
Gu Feng paused for a moment before taking the food box and leaving.
After meeting Xue Yunfei at the cemetery today, Ye Qingwan paid more attention.
Yu Xin’s attitude today made her feel puzzled.
She didn’t want to judge a gentleman’s belly with a villain’s heart, but there must be something wrong if things were abnormal.
The heart of harming others cannot be used for the first place, but the heart of guarding against others cannot be ignored. She had always been very cautious about what she ate.
Normally, she would never buy Oden and roasted sausages for Zixi because she was afraid it would be unsanitary.
However, in order to divert his attention, she also broke the usual rules and ate the oden.
The next day, when Gu Feng sent her out, he replied,
"Miss Qing Wan, there was no problem with yesterday’s food. I just saw the stray dogs that I fed last night."
Most of the people in Ye Qingwan’s neighborhood were rich. There were many families that raised small animals, and many abandoned animals. Stray cats and dogs were often seen running around.
"Okay, that’s good."
"Miss Qing Wan is suspicious?"
Gu Feng did not finish his sentence.
"I’m not suspecting anything. My stomach isn’t very good anyway, so I can only eat freshly made food. He didn’t dare to eat the things in the fridge."
"Understood."
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was Friday’s autumn outing.
Ye Zixi woke up early in the morning. Since the school required everyone to wear their uniform, he had to put on his own clothes and school bag.
They waited for Ye Qingwan to wake up and set off together.
Ye Qingwan had packed some food, fruits, drinks, and so on the night before. She also prepared a tablecloth on the grass and a garbage bag. Her backpack was almost full.
Ye Zixi looked at the bag of food and smiled so widely that his teeth could not be seen. He wished he could hug his backpack and sleep.
Since everyone had to take the same bus, Gu Feng drove the car and followed closely behind.
When they arrived at the amusement park, each class gathered and distributed their entry bracelets.
The school booked the entire place today, so Ye Qingwan didn’t consider Gu Feng. Gu Feng didn’t have a place to enter, so he could only wait outside.
Happy Valley was the largest amusement park in South City. It had all kinds of amusement facilities.
Usually, there would be long lines for every event.
Today, their school booked the entire venue and spread them out to ensure that they could play every event. They did not have to spend too much time queuing.
Ye Qingwan took Zixi to ride the merry-go-round and then the Hurricane Flying Car, which were not so exciting.
There was a popular water sport called " Rush to the Top ". There were a lot of people lining up. They wouldn’t get their turn in the morning, so they planned to go in the afternoon.
After the morning’s play, it was time for the children’s most anticipated picnic.
On the empty grassland, the children formed a team of twos and threes.
He spread out the tablecloth and took out the delicacies he had brought from his backpack, exchanging them with the other children to his heart’s content.
The parents took pictures with their phones. The sky above the amusement park was filled with the laughter of the children.
Halfway through the picnic, Ye Qingwan wanted to go to the bathroom, so she asked Zi Xi,"
"Zixi, Mom needs to go to the bathroom. Do you want to wait here or go with me?"
"Mom, I’ll go with you. I want to go to the bathroom too."
"Alright, let’s go together!"
They found the washroom and agreed that whoever came out first would gather at the door and not leave first.
Zixi expressed that she understood, and the two of them entered the male and female toilets respectively.
In the public toilet, the female toilet seemed to be always full.
Even though Zixi’s school had booked the entire place today, it didn’t seem to change the situation.
When Ye Qingwan went in, she realized that there was no space in the bathroom. There were two people waiting in line in front of her.
She had to spend some time waiting.
When she came out, she did not see Ye Zixi outside.
She thought that Ye Zixi was still not well, so she called Ye Zixi’s name a few times at the door, but there was no response.
Coincidentally, a child from his class went into the men’s room, so Ye Qingwan asked him to go in and see if Ye Zixi was there.
The child went in to look for a round, and when he came out, he said that Ye Zixi was not inside.
Ye Qingwan suddenly felt a little flustered. She then remembered to call Ye Zixi.
Zixi had a watch on her phone, but she rarely used it. Ye Qingwan had almost forgotten about it.
She called Zixi’s watch number, but she was notified that her phone was turned off.
Her heart sank, and she quickly sent a message to the class group to ask,
"Did anyone see my son? I can’t find him."
As everyone was playing and eating with the children, almost no one paid attention to the group messages.
Half a minute after Ye Qingwan sent the message, someone replied,""I didn’t see him."
Ye Qingwan waited for a few seconds after she sent the message. For the first time, she experienced how seconds felt like years.
She couldn’t wait any longer and immediately called her homeroom teacher, Jiang Luan.
"Mr. Jiang, did you see my son Xi? I just took him to the toilet, but I couldn’t find him anywhere when I came out."
Ye Qingwan took a few deep breaths to finish her short sentence. Her entire body and voice were trembling.
Jiang Luan had just seen the group message and scanned her surroundings. After confirming that she didn’t see Ye Zixi, she was about to reply when she received a call from Ye Qingwan.
"Zixi’s mother, don’t panic. Have you searched the bathroom? What about the surroundings?"
