Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

Chapter 91 The CEO’s Cousin in a Workplace Story (4)

The two of them soon arrived at the studio. The assistant received them, brought them some water and asked them to sit down and wait for a while. Fearing that they would be bored, he gave some fashion magazines to Lin Xi. Lin Xi thanked him and took them with a smile. The assistant then went back to help.

Lin Xi pretended to flip through a magazine, but her eyes were secretly looking at Ye Huai who was sitting next to her. It seemed that except for his gaffe when they first met at the airport, this man always had a nonchalant expression, as if he didn't care about anything. Although he behaved relatively gentle to her during the day they spent together, and acted like a responsible brother, Lin Xi knew that it was only because of Grandpa Ye's order.

The original plot has repeatedly described him as a cold-hearted person. Even though he later fell in love with the heroine, after knowing that the heroine had someone in her heart, he still decisively chose to let go and began to concentrate on his career. It stands to reason that such a sober and restrained person is generally extremely self-disciplined and self-loving, but he let it go even though he was well aware of his health problems, and eventually his body was ruined, and he died in a foreign land without any cure.

There must be many reasons for his death, but the male and female protagonists only account for a small part of it. Although he did not get the project in the end, it did not have much impact on Ye Huai's company, let alone shake the company's foundation. So what exactly caused him to lose all hope, lose interest in life, and finally go to self-destruction?

Lin Xi thought for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the system said that something happened to the Ye family later, so she quickly called the system in her mind, "System, the original plot said that something happened to the Ye family later, what exactly was the matter?"

The system searched for information and regretfully informed Lin Xi, "Sorry, host, the original plot did not describe it in detail, but according to the system's speculation, it should be related to the male second's relatives."

Relatives? Lin Xi reviewed Ye Huai's family network. First, there was Ye Huai's grandfather, Old Man Ye, then Old Man Ye's son and daughter, that is, Ye Huai's mother Ye Zhenqi and uncle Ye Zhenkai, as well as their spouses Chu Kuo and Lin Yurou. In Ye Huai's generation, there was Lin Xi, who had no blood relationship with him, and Lin Xi's half-brother Ye Wei.

If we don't count those aunts and uncles who can barely be considered relatives, these are the only people who have a close relationship with Ye Huai. However, the system only says that it is related to relatives, but it is not clear which relative did what to make Ye Huai feel so hopeless. There is no relevant information in the original owner's memory, so Lin Xi can only take it one step at a time. However, the two of them are going to visit Grandpa Ye tomorrow, so they can ask about it indirectly.

Lin Xi was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't notice that she had slowly put down the magazine in her hand. Her eyes, which had been concealed, were no longer disguised and were now staring straight at Ye Huai beside her.

In fact, Ye Huai noticed Lin Xi's gaze from the beginning. He thought that this person was just in a spur of the moment manner. After all, the two of them hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, and they were so busy during the day, so it was normal for her to be curious about him. But more than ten minutes had passed, and this person's gaze not only did not diminish, but was also directly and unconcealed.

No one likes to be looked at so recklessly by someone they are not close to, so he pursed his lips slightly and was about to speak when the door of the waiting room was suddenly knocked. A somewhat gentle male voice sounded outside the door, "Darling! I'm coming in."

Lin Xi's thoughts were interrupted by this voice, and she suddenly came back to her senses. Ye Huai's pursed lips finally relaxed, and he responded indifferently, "Come in."

After a few seconds, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a tall, long-haired beauty walked in. She was wearing a casual suit, with delicate features, a slender neck, and a bright smile on her face, a kind of beauty that was difficult to tell whether she was male or female.

"Wow, where did this little princess come from? She's so pretty." When Lin Xi was marveling at the beauty's gender, the man's eyes lit up and he started praising Lin Xi.

Before Lin Xi could even start being modest, the man walked up to the two of them and nudged Ye Huai with his arm, "Why don't you introduce me to this lovely little princess? I've never seen you bring her out before."

Ye Huai slightly turned sideways to avoid his approaching body, and said coldly: "My cousin, Lin Xi." He then introduced Lin Xi as "An Yihuai."

An Yihuai curled his lips and muttered, "What a blockhead." He then extended his hand to Lin Xi enthusiastically, "Hello, cousin. I'm An Yihuai. Just call me August."

Lin Xi stretched out her hand and shook it. Ye Huai did not say much to An Yihuai and asked him directly, "Can you see if her hair can be untied?"

Hearing this, An Yihuai stepped forward and took a closer look at Lin Xi's dreadlocks. He felt his scalp aching, but he still smiled and nodded, saying, "You can untie it. Hers is not an M-style braid, so it will do less damage to the hair. It just takes a little time to untie it."

Ye Huai nodded, and seeing that he had nothing else to ask, An Yihuai took Lin Xi to the styling room.

After more than three hours, Lin Xi's unruly hair was finally tamed. Although An Yihuai said that this type of dreadlocks would cause less damage to the hair, over the years, Lin Xi's hair quality was still greatly damaged. Looking at herself in the mirror after untying her hair, she looked like a golden lion king. Lin Xi simply asked him to cut her hair short. An Yihuai was skillful and cut her hair to ear length, then straightened it and blow-dried it into a simple style. Lin Xi instantly changed from a rebellious girl to a well-behaved sweetheart.

"Ding, ding, ding, ding. Look whose little princess this is." An Yihuai pushed Lin Xi into the door of the lounge and proudly pointed to his work to Ye Huai.

Ye Huai looked up and saw that the girl in front of him had short hair that reached her ears, which made her face look particularly small. Her thin bangs covered her forehead, and her big, round eyes looked even brighter. She had a turned-up nose, cherry lips, and a doll-like, cute and well-behaved appearance, which gradually overlapped with the little girl in the photo.

His thoughts were empty for a moment, but An Yihuai was still asking for his affirmation, "Why aren't you talking? Are you stunned by the beauty of our little princess?"

Ye Huai came back to his senses, looked at Lin Xi who was looking at him with bright eyes, and nodded slightly, "It looks good."

Hearing this, Lin Xi's round eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile at the corner of her lips was like a pebble thrown into the lake, slowly spreading out, revealing a pair of pointed little fangs.

Ye Huai seemed to be dazzled by her smile, looked away, and said softly: "Let's go home."
