Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly
Chapter 95 The CEO’s Cousin in a Workplace Story (8)
Seeing that Ye Huai didn't want to say more, Lin Xi became even more curious, but their relationship was not close enough to invite each other to visit the room, so she could only look away.
The upstairs seemed to be very large, but it was mostly bedrooms with closed doors. Lin Xi was naturally embarrassed to push the door open when the owner was not at home, so the two of them quickly walked to the end of the corridor, where the doors of the rooms were open.
Ye Huai was just about to take Lin Xi in when his cell phone suddenly rang. He took it out and looked at the caller ID, then signaled with his eyes that Lin Xi should go in first while he walked to the other side to answer the call. Lin Xi overheard and thought it should be something about the company, so he didn't pay any more attention to it and went into the room alone.
The room was not big, and the walls were covered with photos. Lin Xi took a rough look and found that everyone in the Ye family could be found on the walls. In the middle was a family portrait. Old Man Ye was sitting in the middle with a child in his arms. Behind them was a young man and woman who looked very similar. These should be Ye Huai's mother Ye Zhenqi and uncle Ye Zhenkai. The child in the arms who looked only one or two years old should be Ye Huai.
Lin Xi found it a little funny to look at the baby who was laughing so hard that his teeth were showing. It seemed that this cold-faced president had a cold personality since childhood.
Lin Xi looked around the room again and found nothing special. Ye Huai was still answering the phone and she was a little bored, so she prepared to go out. As a result, when she turned around, she accidentally bumped into a shelf.
Fortunately, Lin Xi was quick-witted and quickly supported the shelf that seemed a little shaky, but the photo album that was originally placed well on the shelf was knocked down. The thick photo album fell heavily to the ground with a thud, which scared Lin Xi.
After the shelf was stable, she hurried to pick up the album that had fallen on the ground, but her eyes were attracted by a slightly yellowed photo in the open album.
The photo shows two children, one big and one small. The older one is a boy, looking at the camera with narrowed eyes and an impatient look on his face. The younger one is a girl, who looks sweet and well-behaved, but her posture is a little timid, and she is holding a somewhat worn rag doll tightly in her hands.
What is this? The original owner and Ye Huai when they were little? Lin Xi picked up the photo album and flipped through it again. She found that this was the only photo of the original owner in this thick album. She couldn't help but feel a little confused. Although the original owner followed Lin Yurou to remarry, she was nominally the granddaughter of the Ye family. How come this album had hundreds of photos, but she only had this one photo, and it was a photo with Ye Huai, and Ye Huai looked annoyed.
She was thinking, but Ye Huai, who heard the noise, had already rushed over. He stood at the door and looked around. He found nothing unusual, except Lin Xi, who was holding the photo album blankly. He subconsciously frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Xi raised her head, her usually lively face showing a rare blank expression, "I'm sorry, cousin, I accidentally knocked this album over."
"No one is hurt, right?" Ye Huai felt relieved and looked at Lin Xi. He didn't find any obvious external injuries, but he still asked.
"No." Lin Xi was still in a daze.
"Then what's wrong with you?" Ye Huai didn't say anything as he looked dazed.
Lin Xi pulled the photo out of the album, put the album back on the shelf, gently raised the photo in her hand and asked Ye Huai, "Cousin, is this when we were kids?"
Ye Huai took the photo from her hand, and after seeing the person on it clearly, he hummed softly, then raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Xi, "You don't remember?"
Lin Xi recalled the moment when Ye Huai came in just now, and suddenly there were more memories in her mind. She felt heavier than when she saw that memory in the morning. It was not because of anything else, but because the original owner was too pitiful.
Lin Yurou is a famous beauty in the town. As her name suggests, she is both beautiful and fragile. When she cries, her eyes are full of tears, which makes me feel pity for her.
Such a beauty never lacks suitors. She is used to those immature boys who blush, become speechless, and unable to walk when they see her. She prefers those mature men who are unrestrained, free and easy.
Finally one day, a man who perfectly met all her fantasies appeared in the town. Even though the man showed disdain for her, she still threw herself at him like a moth to a flame, and even eloped with the man and left her hometown despite her family's opposition.
But the result of a moth flying into a flame was doomed. The reason why the man acted so reckless towards her was because he was originally a scumbag who played around with the world and lingered among the women. After he got tired of playing with Lin Yurou, he robbed all her money, threw her aside, and disappeared without a trace.
Lin Yurou returned to the town with a big belly, wanting to beg for her parents' forgiveness, but her family was already deserted. It turned out that her parents could not bear the scorn and ridicule of the townspeople for Lin Yurou's shamelessness and eloping with someone, so they had moved away long ago and did not leave any information.
She had lost her home and had no money for an abortion, so she gave birth to Lin Xi with the help of kind-hearted people. The kind-hearted people also found her a job. Although the income was not high, it was enough to support herself and her daughter. However, she was used to the bright lights and women, so how could she be willing to be a silkworm bound in a cocoon? Several times, she cruelly abandoned her daughter and wanted to fly away, but the clever Lin Xi always found passers-by to ask for help and send her back in time.
After this happened so many times, people naturally became suspicious of her, and Lin Xi was growing up slowly. Although she was only five or six years old, she had already learned to stand on a stool to wash vegetables and cook, so Lin Yurou gradually gave up the idea of throwing her away.
But the delicate dodder can only rely on big trees to survive. Lin Yurou couldn't stand the heavy labor and could only rely on her beauty to linger among the men of the same gender. So the little Lin Xi was taken care of by her mother as a burden and moved to different men's homes every once in a while.
The experience of living under someone else's roof since childhood made her extremely cautious and learned to read people's faces. She thought that such days would continue forever, until Lin Yurou was kicked out by a man again, and it seemed that there was only one way left for her.
She was well aware of her beauty, so she dressed herself up to look pure and charming. Then, she walked into the place full of lights, wine, and women without looking back. She thought it was the beginning of a nightmare, but Ye Zhenkai, who had just divorced, fell in love with her at first sight. He started pursuing her madly and even married Lin Yurou despite the threat of Mr. Ye taking away his inheritance rights.
Lin Yurou, who had been in a miserable state for half her life, suddenly transformed herself into the young lady of the Ye family and married into the Ye family with the nine-year-old Lin Xi.
