Chapter 2211 - 2171: Moving Back in the Middle of the Night

Ye Qiu indeed has feelings for Zhao Rubing, but because he cares about Zhao Ruxue, he won’t make a move on Zhao Rubing directly.

Looking at Zhao Rubing now, Ye Qiu doesn’t know what to say.

The two kept drinking, and soon Zhao Rubing collapsed into Ye Qiu’s arms, hugging him and saying, "Brother-in-law, what am I going to do, I miss you so much!"

"What are you thinking? I’m right here."

Zhao Rubing didn’t quite look like someone who was drunk!

Normally, Zhao Rubing drinks quite a lot, so why today after just a few drinks does she seem like she’s going to get drunk?

Ye Qiu was merely there to accompany Zhao Rubing for some drinks; he had to go to Liu Xia afterwards.

Ye Qiu held Zhao Rubing’s soft figure, stroking her hair.

"Brother-in-law."

Zhao Rubing continued to act coyly.

People say a sister-in-law is like a little cotton jacket for her brother-in-law, but right now Ye Qiu doesn’t feel that at all!

"You should rest now, I’m leaving."

"Brother-in-law, are you really leaving?"

The drinks were done, the conversations had, and there was nothing problematic at the Norwegian Forest Bar, so of course Ye Qiu had to leave.

Now Liu Xia is still waiting for him over there.

"Are you going to see another woman? How can you do this to my sister?"

Zhao Rubing’s expression changed as she looked at him angrily.

You could say a woman’s sixth sense is pretty accurate. She really managed to see through him.

Ye Qiu didn’t deny it: "Is it not possible?"

"You, I’m going to tell my sister."

Ye Qiu was indifferent.

After all, his actual girlfriend isn’t Zhao Ruxue, and Zhao Ruxue knows that.

As Ye Qiu was leaving, Zhao Rubing watched him go out, noticing that Ye Qiu seemed a bit different from before, especially in his attitude towards her.

Perhaps it was because of her sister’s influence that Ye Qiu acted that way.

But now, from Zhao Rubing’s perspective, everything about Ye Qiu deeply attracted her, and it seemed like no other outstanding man could compare to him.

In such circumstances, whenever Zhao Rubing looks at other men, she doesn’t glance at them directly.

Going outside, the cool breeze blows and Ye Qiu proceeds to his car.

Once in the car, Ye Qiu drives over to the apartment where Liu Xia lives.

At the entrance of the apartment complex, he parks the car and takes the elevator upstairs.

"Xiaxia, I’m here."

Liu Xia was nearly asleep, thinking that Ye Qiu might not come tonight.

Unexpectedly, he actually arrived.

Hurriedly getting up to open the door, she saw Ye Qiu, and he carried the scent of alcohol and perfume.

Liu Xia didn’t think much of it, she just let Ye Qiu go shower first.

As Ye Qiu went inside, he showered first before heading to Liu Xia’s room.

The two were like an old couple, having that kind of relationship naturally meant there wasn’t much to hesitate about.

"Ye Qiu, let’s go to bed early."

The two kept busy until about two or three in the morning when suddenly, Xiao Hong’s phone rang, and it was a call from her.

Xiao Hong picked up the nearby phone, panting, and asked, "Xiao Hong, what’s the matter so late?"

"Liu Xia, I’m scared, I keep feeling like someone downstairs is staring at me."

"No way?"

Could this be just a psychological effect?

Liu Xia glanced over at Ye Qiu.

"Let me have Ye Qiu go pick you up then."

Xiao Hong is her only friend, and their bonds are so strong. If something really happens to Xiao Hong, Liu Xia couldn’t bear it.

Turning to Ye Qiu, Liu Xia said, "Ye Qiu, quickly go and get her."

"She’s just causing trouble for no reason."

Ye Qiu could only get up.

After getting dressed, he went downstairs to fetch Xiao Hong.

Driving over to that urban village.

The urban village residential area was quiet, and now it’s late at night, you can’t even see any dogs, let alone other people.

The dim lighting added a sense of fear.

Ye Qiu arrived downstairs where Xiao Hong lived, and he called her.

By this time, Xiao Hong had already packed her things.

"I’m coming down now."

Ye Qiu waited there, soon seeing Xiao Hong with large bags, presumably all her clothes and stuff; when Ye Qiu went over to help her carry them, he asked, "Aren’t you just making trouble for no reason?"

"I didn’t want to."

Xiao Hong said with some grievance.

Getting into his car, Ye Qiu drove away from there, returning to the apartment where Liu Xia lived.

Once back at the apartment entrance, after parking the car.

The security at the entrance knew Xiao Hong, but didn’t expect this late-night return with so many bags along with Ye Qiu.

Taking the elevator up, Liu Xia was already awake.

Ye Qiu rang the bell; when Liu Xia opened the door, she saw Xiao Hong had brought her things back.

Xiao Hong put down her things and went over to hug Liu Xia.

"Let’s just shower and sleep." Ye Qiu said.

Being interrupted by Xiao Hong, the mood was gone.

Those things can be organized tomorrow.

Ye Qiu and Liu Xia went upstairs, naturally going to shower and then sleep.

The next morning, when Ye Qiu woke up, Liu Xia was still in his arms. Since they slept around two or three last night, she was still a bit tired.

However, she needed to get up since there was a meeting at eight thirty in the morning; she had to get ready and have breakfast.

When Liu Xia got up, washed up, and dressed, she found that Xiao Hong had already prepared breakfast.

Ye Qiu went downstairs, and after breakfast with the two women, he was ready to leave.

Leaving the apartment, Ye Qiu drove back to the Peach Blossom Source Villa Community.

Back at the villa, Lin Xiang had already returned to school, but Xiaomai should be back, as he saw Ye Weidong’s car had returned.

The four of them had gone back home for three to four days, which should be fine.

As expected, upon entering inside, he saw Ye Weidong smoking a cigar there, Xiaomai and Chen Fang were cleaning, Ye Xue should be downstairs.

"Where did you go?" Ye Weidong asked curiously when seeing Ye Qiu.

"Dad, aren’t you worried I don’t have anywhere to go?"

Sitting next to Ye Weidong, Ye Qiu learned that grandpa’s cemetery had been repaired, the roadsides were fixed, and the new house had laid the foundation.

Now they were starting to build the house.

They’re aiming to finish it before it snows.

Since it’s only two or three stories high, and they have hired many workers, it shouldn’t take too long to complete.

"Dad, you should rest now."

As Ye Qiu went upstairs, Zhao Ruxue called again.

She already knew that Ye Qiu went to drink with Zhao Rubing last night, but Ye Qiu left shortly after, and Zhao Rubing said that Ye Qiu went to find another woman.

Regarding this, Zhao Ruxue couldn’t control it but didn’t want Ye Qiu to get too close to her sister, fearing that if they really got together, it would be awkward for both.

Now Zhao Ruxue wanted to talk about the situation of those remains at Mountain Lake.

"Based on the forensic assessment, these remains haven’t been dead for very long."

"Then why are there only bones left?"

Normally, bones take time to be eaten away by bugs and microorganisms, but being thrown into a lake, it couldn’t be that the fish below ate them.

So, that’s what seems suspicious.
