Qi Ye frowned and reached out to take the phone, but the sound on the other end was cut off, leaving only a "beep" sound.

Qi Ye wrote down the number, breathing slightly faster, "Don't be afraid, I will find out who it is."

afraid?

Of course Xiao Wang is not afraid.

After all, this was the call that Xiao Wang asked Si Yexing to dial up through the Internet.

The entertainment giants naturally have professional methods when it comes to exposing IP information, so it is not easy for Qi Ye to get to the bottom of it.

Xiao Wang was not worried.

However, she raised her eyes and said, "It's just a harassing call. Are you worried about something?"

Qi Ye suddenly realized that he might have exposed a flaw in the matter of the letter.

He put down his phone, "Yeah. It's a harassing call, I blocked it."

He got up to pay the bill, then came back and took Xiao Wang by the hand, "Let's go home."

Xiao Wang really needs to return to the villa.

When she arrived, she closed her bedroom door and the first thing she did was look for the mark on the mailbox.

However, the hair is still there.

Only Chen Er knew that not long after Qi Ye sent the message, he called and asked him to carefully check whether there was any mark on the box.

Moreover, he checked the mail in the box again and found no problem. There were no extra mails of the same kind.

So... little nanny, are you suspicious?

……

That night, heavy snow fell in the imperial capital.

Qi Ye and Xiao Wang spent the day with their own mixed thoughts.

In the middle of the night, Xiao Wang tiptoed into the study.

……

People tend to sleep more when it's cold.

Not to mention going to bed late and waking up even later.

Xiao Wang was awakened by the delicious smell.

She rubbed her eyes, got out of bed, smelled the fragrance and walked to the kitchen. Seventh Master was wearing an apron and busy in front of the stove.

Outside the window, the cold wind is howling, but the house is full of warmth.

It seemed that he felt Xiao Wang coming.

Mr. Qi was distracted for a moment and accidentally caught his finger with a sharp fish bone, and blood gushed out.

Xiao Wang took two steps forward.

But Master Qi had already bandaged it simply and said, "It's okay."

Xiao Wang looked at the table full of fish and asked, "All fish feast?"

A hint of unnaturalness flashed across Qi Ye's eyes. "It's your hometown dish. I want to try it. I don't know if it suits your taste."

The great Master Zhaibei Qiye cooked a meal of home-cooked dishes from Zenan...

It's indeed a bit difficult.

Xiao Wang grabbed his finger and looked at it. "This won't work. We need to disinfect it."

She finished with his fingers carefully.

The Seventh Master was slightly moved.

The fish soup was ready, and the butler brought it to the table one by one, then stepped back to leave some private space.

Xiao Wang praised the food while eating, and Qi Ye couldn't help but smile.

Eat and drink enough.

The scene was so warm that it seemed like an ordinary day after marriage.

Xiao Wang looked at Qi Ye, "You won't blame me for walking around the room, will you?"

"Hmm?" Qi Ye's voice softened.

Xiao Wang looked him in the eyes, "I have seen it. You have a treasured old photo."

"Your parents, right? You were not that old then."

"I know there must be something in your past, and it's related to me. Can you tell me about it?"

The Seventh Master's originally relaxed body tensed up in an instant, and his eyes became gloomy and cloudy.

Xiao Wang's heart skipped a beat.

At this moment, her heart beat rapidly and she held the stun gun hidden in her pocket.

Last night, she found some knots in the study. Combined with some scattered clues sent by Si Yexing after the investigation, the mystery was pieced together bit by bit like a jigsaw puzzle.

The photo of his parents always stays at that age, and there is no update...that photo is very old.

Then, the thorn in his heart is most likely here.

Qi Ye was silent for a long time, and time seemed to have stood still.

He longed to confide in her and longed to get warmth and understanding from her.

But the dark past was like a heavy shackle, and he was afraid that he would lose her once it was uncovered.

forever.

Finally, he spoke slowly, his voice low and suppressed: "Believe me, some things are better for you if you don't know them."

Xiao Wang smiled carelessly, suddenly easing the oppressive atmosphere, with curiosity and tenderness in his eyes, "You said you like me, but you can't hide it from me and get along with me all the time? In that case, although I can cooperate with you and pretend not to know. But won't you be tired if you keep carrying it?"

"If you knew, would you be afraid of me?" Seventh Master raised his eyes.

"Everyone is afraid of the unknown. As for what is known and certain, we just need to accept it. Letters... stories... a lot of things have appeared in front of you and me recently, and they are deepening my uncertainty. Are you sure that hiding it from me will be the best outcome?" Xiao Wang asked back.

This couldn't be more obvious.

If it wasn't Qi Ye who told me, there would be someone else.

It is unknown what the others are thinking.

Qiye thought for a moment and said slowly: "One last question, so, are you Zenan Laoliu, or someone else?"

He raised his eyes and their eyes met.

The fish feast he cooked was not to the local taste, but she didn't notice it at all. Instead, she praised it highly.

He whispered softly in her ear: "If we are both honest with each other, I can tell you everything."

Xiao Wang paused.

He is so smart.

After a moment, she smiled and said, "You guessed right. I am not the real Zenan Laoliu. So, I am only curious about your legends, not afraid."

Qi Ye exhaled softly and raised his hand to stroke the hair beside her ear.

He calmed down:

"That story, maybe it's true. Maybe it's a distorted version. I'm tracking down the clues to it."

He moved his lips, but he didn't say anything about his parents' curse. He just said, "My parents died young, which was also related to this."

Xiao Wang curved his eyes and held his fingers, "Can I join you?"

Qi Ye was caught in the smile in her eyes, tightened his fingers, and nodded.

……

Later, in front of Chen Er, Xiao Wang deliberately mentioned, "Chen Er, Master Qi asked me to investigate the clues of the legend together, and you have to cooperate with me later."

Chen Er:?

Then he quickly looked at Seventh Master.

The Seventh Master nodded slightly.

Chen Er's eyes widened visibly, and he lowered his head and said, "Yes, Miss."

……

In the afternoon, Xiao Wang found Chen Er privately with the recording jammer.

If the protagonist of the story is Qi Ye, it would be more appropriate to say that it is Qi Ye's parents or ancestors.

If you want to pry the Seventh Master away, I'm afraid he has some mental problems, so it would be extremely difficult.

For this matter, she could only start with the people around Qi Ye, for example, Chen Er, the greasy bodyguard who always appeared in her sight and was deeply trusted by Qi Ye.

Patio, backyard in the snow.

Chen Er crossed his arms and looked handsome, "Ms. Wang, it's not good to come to me in private."

Xiao Wang smiled and asked, "You have been with Master Qi the longest?"

"of course."

"I want to ask about Master Qi's parents."

Chen Er frowned and refused decisively: "No, I can't say it."

Xiao Wang lowered his head, glanced at the limited edition sneakers on Chen Er's feet, pointed his finger, and said, "I am a close friend of the eldest grandson of the Bu family. I can help you get the latest global limited edition of it, as long as you tell me."

? ? Chen Er’s eyes twitched.

What a vicious woman.

But he still gritted his teeth and reluctantly gave up, "No."
