Special Effects Invasion: As a Knight, I Just Want to Take a Vacation
Chapter 48 Jiang Yinyue's Parents
"Ding dong~"
Hearing the doorbell ringing beside his ear, Ye Tingheng couldn't help but feel a little confused.
She had not told anyone the location of the villa, including the friends she made before retirement. Who on earth could have found it at this time?
With doubts in his mind, Ye Tingheng slowly stood up and walked towards the courtyard with light steps.
When she walked to the door of the living room, she finally saw the visitor through the surveillance screen on the wall.
They were a middle-aged couple, dressed simply and ordinary, standing at the door of the villa - the man had a slightly funny hairstyle, in the Mediterranean style, and the woman was holding four paper bags of different sizes in her hands.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tingheng felt more and more confused.
What is the purpose of this couple who have nothing to do with me?
Ye Tingheng became secretly alert and put his right hand into his coat pocket, ready to take out the nebula smoke gun from the system space at any time.
Ye Tingheng opened the door calmly and walked towards the gate of the villa courtyard. Although the two people looked very ordinary, no one could guarantee whether they were Aophion.
For Ye Tingheng, she must remain extremely vigilant about all unknown things. In her opinion, the changes in this world are most likely not as simple as the appearance of Orpheino.
At the same time, the couple at the door also noticed someone coming out of the house and hurriedly put their clothes in order.
The two men straightened their backs, appearing somewhat nervous and reserved.
After a while, Ye Tingheng came in front of them.
A cold iron door stood in the middle, like an invisible barrier, separating the two sides.
"Excuse me, who are you two?" Ye Tingheng looked at them expressionlessly with a flat tone.
There was a hint of indifference in his eyes, as if he was keeping people at a distance.
"Ah! Hello, Teacher Ye. We are Jiang Yinyue's parents."
The middle-aged man hurriedly put on a smile, held the phone in both hands, and handed it to Ye Tingheng respectfully. Then he unlocked the screen and opened the photo album with a light swipe of his finger.
One clear photo after another flashed before Ye Tingheng's eyes, all of which contained photos of Jiang Yinyue and the couple.
And based on this, we can judge that the filming started when Jiang Yinyue was three or four years old.
However, when another child appeared in the picture, the smile on Jiang Yinyue's face disappeared visibly.
Their standing position is also fixed at the far left of the photo, making it look like they were forced to take the photo together.
The man seemed unaware of Ye Tingheng's subtle expression change, and he proved his identity on his own.
He put his phone away and gently nudged his wife with his elbow.
After receiving her husband's reminder, the middle-aged woman turned her eyes away from the villa inside the yard, hurriedly bent down and put down the paper bag in her hand.
He took out a light blue paper box from it, smiled, and handed it to Ye Tingheng through the gap in the iron gate.
"Well, Teacher Ye, we learned about your care for Jiang Yinyue from other students, and we specifically asked the principal for the address."
"Jiang Yinyue often tells us about you. She really likes you."
"We bought these gifts specifically to thank you. We can't keep letting you spend money. It would be so embarrassing. We were the ones who took care of her in the first place."
Looking at the two people in front of her with flattering expressions, Ye Tingheng suddenly felt as if she was back to when she was an agent. Because of her job, she needed to deal with all kinds of people.
Apart from those who are extremely arrogant and unreasonable, and those who can treat others peacefully, there are those who try to please her and flatter her because they want something from her.
The two people in front of him, the parents of Jiang Yinyue, are very similar to the third type of people, or in other words, they are here to ask for benefits from him.
Is it because I live in a villa and think I am a rich kid whose family owns a mine?
Ye Tingheng did not take the gift handed to him by the woman, and he had a lot of guesses in his mind.
First of all, these two people are most likely here to curry favor with her. It is difficult to tell whether what they said before is true or false. As for what specific matter they came to her for, Ye Tingheng is not sure.
After all, Jiang Yinyue didn't really take the initiative to communicate with her, so she was usually the one who spoke up when there was something.
However, the former rarely refused the proposals she made, and similarly, Jiang Yinyue never mentioned her parents.
Moreover, based on those photos, it can be inferred that Jiang Yinyue's relationship with them may be very stiff. It is likely that after having their second child, the two transferred all their love to the latter without reservation.
Then, Jiang Yinyue’s introverted personality can be explained.
Thinking of this, Ye Tingheng stared at the couple expressionlessly, and the latter felt a hint of indifference and disdain in her eyes.
"You are Jiang Yinyue's parents, right? Why did you come here specially to give her a gift?"
"You should know that public officials cannot privately accept gifts from students' families."
Ye Tingheng crossed his arms over his chest, his voice cold and serious, making people shudder.
The man and the woman were startled by Ye Tingheng's attitude, and they looked at each other," then the husband answered cautiously.
"That's right, Teacher Ye. We are Jiang Yinyue's parents. We heard that you have been taking care of her, so we came here to thank you."
"These are just our small tokens of appreciation. They're not for anything else, but just for the children. Look, they're all tea leaves and other daily necessities."
"Oh? I see. But I don't need your thanks, nor do I need your kindness. I just did what I was supposed to do."
Ye Tingheng's tone remained cold, with no sign of easing.
The man and woman stood there awkwardly, not knowing how to respond. They had thought Ye Tingheng would gladly accept their gift, but they had not expected such a cold rejection.
"Teacher Ye, please don't say that. We know you're a good person, but we're really grateful for your care for Jiang Yinyue. If it weren't for you, she might have already..."
As the woman spoke, she couldn't help but shed tears, looking like a good mother.
However, one cannot judge a person by his appearance, and Ye Tingheng could not conclude whether the woman really came just to express her gratitude.
Looking at the woman crying, Ye Tingheng felt a little helpless.
She sighed and said, "Okay, don't cry. I understand your intentions, but I really don't need these gifts. Take them back and use them yourselves."
"As for why I take such good care of Jiang Yinyue, let me tell you, I'm actually a psychology teacher. You two aren't quite up to the task of being parents."
When the couple heard Ye Tingheng's words, they nodded quickly and immediately expressed that they would take good care of Jiang Yinyue.
After telling the lie, Ye Tingheng nodded calmly, then turned and walked into the house, leaving the man and woman with a confused look on their faces.
"Goodbye, you two. I won't see you off."
