After breakfast, Ye Qingyu happily went out with Lin Yu to buy groceries, while Han Nuan stayed behind in the self-built farmhouse to do the housework.
Though it lacked the prosperity of a major city, it also lacked that suffocating urban tension. Having grown accustomed to city life, she had instead adapted to more than ten years of living in the countryside.
After finishing the chores, Han Nuan went out into the yard and relaxed in a wicker recliner. But before long, several men in black suits knocked on the courtyard gate.
"Come in."
Only after receiving permission did the suited staff open the gate and enter the small courtyard. They respectfully addressed the woman reclining in the chair.
"Young Madam."
Han Nuan glanced at the lead bodyguard. She knew him—his name was Qin Song. They had met in Banyan City's Wulin. Back then, Qin Song had been the sort to throw his weight around because of his father's position in Ye Corporation. But after Ye Lei taught him a lesson, he turned over a new leaf. A few years ago, he had joined the Eight Soul Suppressors as an external operative. Qin Song never complained, instead working diligently and without protest. Even if a task was not his responsibility, he would still do it.
"If there's something to say, say it quickly. Don't let Qingyu see you. I'm not ready to blow my cover yet."
Han Nuan took a sip from her teacup, her tone icy.
"Young Madam, the old master said that Old Master Ye misses the young miss. Since it happens to be summer vacation, he would like you to take the young miss back to the Ye Family."
Qin Song spoke with great respect.
Han Nuan waved them away and spoke again.
"All right, all right.
