Chapter 146 Care about her, everything
Ye Wanqing listened quietly to the sound of the door slowly closing, her eyes dull as she followed Lin Xuan's receding figure, as if time had frozen at this moment.
It was not until a few seconds later that she slowly withdrew her gaze, gently opened the door of the retro bedside table beside her, and took out an exquisite small medicine box from it.
It contained sleeping pills prescribed by a professional doctor when she was back home.
Nowadays, this type of medicine is strictly controlled and difficult to purchase. The dosage she obtained at that time was limited, and most of it had been consumed during her time in her hometown. At this moment, there were only four precious pills left in the medicine box.
She carefully poured out two pills and swallowed them without hesitation with the warm water in the cup.
After completing this series of actions, Ye Wanqing finally turned off the bedside light and slowly lay down.
Perhaps thanks to the magic of the two sleeping pills, Ye Wanqing gradually fell into a dream.
At the same time, Lin Xuan was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the guest room. He had just finished smoking a cigarette and turned to walk into the room. After a little hesitation, he started searching.
After finding a set of comfortable pajamas, he walked into the bathroom with the pajamas in hand. After washing up, the clock had quietly pointed to 3:30 in the morning.
Lin Xuan put down the communication device in his hand, left the guest room, and slowly walked towards the master bedroom at the end of the corridor.
The master bedroom was pitch black. He gently turned the doorknob and walked into the room silently. With the faint moonlight coming in from the window, he could vaguely make out Ye Wanqing sleeping on the bed.
She was sleeping soundly.
Lin Xuan's gaze swept across her and finally stopped on a box of medicine on the bedside table. He frowned slightly, reached out to take the medicine box, gently opened the buckle, and the only remaining sleeping pills inside came into view.
He recognized the familiar logo and suddenly understood.
Lin Xuan pursed his lips slightly, looked at Ye Wanqing on the bed again, then slowly closed the medicine box, put it back in its place, turned around and left the room, his movements so gentle as if he was afraid of disturbing the tranquility.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Lin Xuan woke up on time on the soft bed in the guest room.
Although he almost didn't sleep all night last night and only took a short rest of less than four hours, he had an important morning meeting today and he had to force himself to be alert and prepare to return to the company.
Lin Xuan rubbed his temples, slowly sat up from the bed, changed into a brand new dark suit, and then went into the bathroom to wash up.
Ye Wanqing made meticulous arrangements for the guest room. Not only were all the toiletries available, but even the spare shirts in the wardrobe were ironed perfectly.
It is no wonder that she is so attentive and thoughtful that the old lady loves her so much.
Lin Xuan sorted out his thoughts, wiped his face with a soft towel, put on the exquisite watch on his wrist, and left the guest room.
As soon as he stepped onto the corridor on the second floor, he met Ye Wanqing walking out of the kitchen. A hint of surprise flashed through Lin Xuan's mind, while Ye Wanqing seemed unusually calm: "Good morning, do you have an important meeting today?"
After all, as the former Mrs. Lin, Ye Wanqing was no stranger to Lin Xuan's schedule. This was a requirement that Mrs. Lin insisted on, and Zhao Yu would send Lin Xuan's schedule to her regularly.
Lin Xuan stared at her. Although her face was a little pale, she seemed to have recovered her spirit, and the familiar smile appeared on the corner of her mouth again.
He nodded gently, "Aren't you tired?"
"That's fine. I can catch up on my sleep later. I really troubled you last night. Wait a moment, I'll pack breakfast for you."
Ye Wanqing prepared warm soy milk and crispy fried dough sticks. She carefully packed them in an insulated box and handed them to Lin Xuan: "You can drive my car. It will be more convenient this way."
Lin Xuan looked at her and took the car keys and breakfast without refusing. "I'll ask the driver to return the car to you later."
"Ok."
She smiled and nodded, with a gentle light flashing in her eyes, making Lin Xuan feel as if he had returned to the time when they had not divorced.
Lin Xuan looked down at the thermal box in his hand, turned around and walked down the stairs without saying anything more.
He walked into the garage, gently placed the thermal box on the passenger seat, fastened his seat belt, started Ye Wanqing's car, and slowly drove away from this mansion full of memories.
As the vehicle slowly approached the gate of the manor, Ye Wanqing stood quietly on the side, holding an exquisite umbrella.
Lin Xuan caught a glimpse of Ye Wanqing's gentle figure through the rearview mirror, and an indescribable ripple arose in his heart.
He recalled the past when his parents were still alive. Every morning, his mother would stand in front of the Lin family's door and watch his father drive away with deep affection.
This scene was so similar to the one before his eyes that it gave rise to an inexplicable emotion in his heart.
He gripped the steering wheel tightly as the car slowly drove out of the manor. Ye Wanqing's figure gradually blurred in the rearview mirror until it finally disappeared from sight.
Lin Xuan's eyes involuntarily fell on the thermal box on the passenger seat, his eyes flickered slightly, then he took a deep breath and drove to the company with full concentration.
Today, Lin Xuan chose a car that was different from usual.
When the car was parked steadily in the exclusive parking space in the company's underground parking lot, many employees were surprised to find that the parking space was occupied by an unfamiliar vehicle.
However, they were even more surprised when they saw that it was Lin Xuan who got out of the car.
What made them even more curious was that Lin Xuan was actually holding a white insulated lunch box in his hand, which seemed particularly abrupt in their eyes.
Zhao Yu ran into Lin Xuan at the elevator entrance and was surprised. He noticed that Lin Xuan was wearing the same clothes as yesterday, and he couldn't help but speculate.
"Mr. Lin, good morning!" Zhao Yu quickly organized his thoughts and greeted Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan glanced at him calmly: "Well, Secretary Zhao, come in."
Zhao Yu was a little nervous when Lin Xuan summoned him to his office early in the morning. He took a deep breath, followed Lin Xuan into the office, and closed the door behind him.
"Mr. Lin?" Zhao Yu asked cautiously.
Lin Xuan glanced at him and casually threw the car keys on the desk: "Find someone to drive the new car in the parking lot back to Ye Wanqing."
Hearing the name "Ye Wanqing", Zhao Yu immediately perked up: "Okay, Mr. Lin."
He picked up the car keys and was about to leave when he heard Lin Xuan say, "By the way, carefully check the specific details of the Su Junyan incident."
He paused for a moment, his tone carrying a barely perceptible seriousness: "Especially, we need to find out how this matter is connected to Ye Wanqing."
Zhao Yu was shocked when he heard this. After so many days, Lin Xuan actually mentioned this matter again. He couldn't help but wonder whether Lin Xuan had discovered something.
However, the content that Lin Xuan asked him to investigate did not seem to be directly related to the relationship between the two.
Zhao Yu didn't dare to think too much and quickly replied: "I understand, Mr. Lin."
He glanced at the old clothes Lin Xuan was still wearing and hesitated for a moment: "Boss Lin, do you need me to prepare a new set of clothes for you?"
"No need." Lin Xuan waved his hand, indicating that Zhao Yu could leave. He had spare clothes in the lounge, so he was in no rush to change.
Zhao Yu nodded in agreement, turned around, closed the door and walked out.
At this time, in the small villa of the manor.
After finishing breakfast, Ye Wanqing sat lazily on the sofa, listening to the sound of wind and rain outside the window.
She felt a little sleepy, but didn't want to fall asleep, so she just sat there quietly, letting her thoughts drift in her mind.
She sat for a long time until the doorbell rang suddenly, then she slowly stood up and walked downstairs.
It was the person Lin Xuan sent to deliver the car. Ye Wanqing took the car keys and said softly, "Thank you."
The visitor was stunned by Ye Wanqing's beauty, but thinking that she was Lin Xuan's person, he didn't dare to look at her any longer. He lowered his head and responded respectfully: "You're welcome, Miss Ye!"
After the pleasantries were over, the visitor left in a hurry. Ye Wanqing also opened her umbrella again and returned to the villa.
