Chapter 510: Chapter 509 Will You Forget Again?

Lu Mian took the initiative to walk over to Xiao Qimo’s jeep.

She was clad in a black trench coat, hands tucked in her pockets, tilting her head to look at the man behind her.

Fine snowflakes dusted her hair and shoulders, adding a touch of playfulness and softness to her cool demeanor.

“Aren’t you cold?

Why don’t you hurry up~”

The end of her sentence was drawn out a bit, soft and with a hint of drowsiness.

Xiao Qimo quickened his pace to follow her.

Instead of heading straight to the driver’s seat, he first approached Lu Mian, brushing the snowflakes off her clothes.

Then, he gently tousled her hair, the tenderness endless.

“Let’s go, my…

girlfriend.”

Lu Mian curled her lips: “Thank you, my…

Mister Driver.”

“You little rascal!”

The man cursed as he opened the door for her.

Once they were both in the car, Lu Mian had already fastened her seatbelt.

Xiao Qimo glanced at her and slowly started the vehicle.

The car was comfortably warm, and the soft, mellow piano music made Lu Mian feel drowsy.

Her eyelids heavy, she stopped playing games and occasionally slumped forward, struggling to stay conscious.

Xiao Qimo glanced at her, thinking how uncomfortable she looked.

Wasn’t she going to sleep?

“Why don’t you sleep?”

“Hmm,” the girl paused slightly, “will you still be angry when I wake up?”

She asked with uncertainty.

“aEUR|” Xiao Qimo didn’t know how to respond to that.

It wasn’t a matter of being angry or not.

What he should be most concerned about was whether he was okay.

“Go to sleep, I promise I won’t be angry anymore.”

“Okay.” Finally reassured, Lu Mian snuggled into the passenger seat, tilted her head, and closed her eyes.

While waiting for a traffic light, Xiao Qimo grabbed a blanket from the back to cover her.

Looking at her fair, pinkish profile, his lips curved into a smile of satisfaction mixed with slight helplessness.

You little rascal, I’m the one who should be worried!

Will you remember all this when you wake up?

Or will you leave me with a beautiful dreamy memory while having forgotten it completely?

A long sigh escaped from his thin lips.

After a moment, Xiao Qimo directly called Ye Jinwen.

At that moment, at the Ye Family residence in Jinjing.

Ye Jinwen’s mother, Tang Wenhui, held a bag of old belongings, handing it over to a servant.

“Take these and burn them.”

The servant hesitated for a few seconds: “Madam, aren’t these Miss Xi Xi’s award certificates?”

Tang Wenhui took a deep look at them, her expression weary and resigned.

“She’s gone now, it’s useless to keep them.”

“But, the young master…”

The servant tried to say more, but upon catching Tang Wenhui’s suddenly cold gaze, the servant immediately took the bag and left in silence.

Running into Ye Jinwen head-on, “Young master.”

Ye Jinwen glanced at the contents in the servant’s hands, and without a word, took it.

“You can go now.”

The servant nodded and quickly departed.

Holding the bag, Ye Jinwen approached Tang Wenhui with a furrowed brow.

“Mom, these are Xi Xi’s belongings.

I’ve told you before, don’t touch her things in her room.” Ye Jinwen spoke very calmly.

This was the manner of speech he had developed after countless confrontations.

Tang Wenhui became angry upon seeing her son’s lifeless demeanor, especially when their mother-son discussions turned to Ye LingxiaEUR”long suppressed emotions always surged.

Tang Wenhui was always strong and precise, a figure whose word was law at home.

Even Ye Qingsui, her husband, sometimes couldn’t change her decisions.

“Jinwen.” Tang Wenhui took a step forward.

She smoothed back her neatly combed hair and said indifferently, “You and Yixin are getting married soon, we should get rid of unnecessary things around the house sooner rather than later.

What’s the use of keeping these things except to upset us?”

“Yes, she’s just a source of frustration for you,” Ye Jinwen refrained from arguing with Tang Wenhui.

Having a domineering mother at home meant that compliance was the only way to avoid more intense family conflicts.

He knew this all too well.

“I’ll find time to move out all of Xi Xi’s belongings.

Before then, I’d appreciate it if you didn’t touch her things again.”

“You…”

Ye Jinwen sidestepped Tang Wenhui, not looking at her chilling expression, and went straight upstairs.

Tang Wenhui took a few steps after him, “Give me a specific time.

When will you and Yixin get married?”

Get married?

Ye Jinwen let out a cold laugh.

Shen Yixin had already sought him out and made her intentions clear.

Was there still a chance for them to get married?

Turning his gaze back to Tang Wenhui, whose face held a look of anticipation, Ye Jinwen said, “Very soon.”

Tang Wenhui nodded, seemingly consenting to Ye Jinwen moving Ye Lingxi’s belongings.

Yet, as she watched her increasingly estranged son, she heaved a silent sigh.

She hoped that her son would return to normality after getting married.

While Ye Jinwen was packing Ye Lingxi’s room, he received a call from Xiao Qimo, and without delay, he headed out.

Tang Wenhui had been sitting in the living room the whole time and, noticing his sign of departure, abruptly stood up.

“Where are you going?

When will you be back?”

Ye Jinwen shook his cellphone, “A call from Brother Qi, I’m heading to the Xiao Family.”

Seeing his mother’s distrustful look, he gave a self-deprecating laugh, “Or perhaps, you’d like to call him and ask yourself?”

“Leave early and come back soon,” Tang Wenhui settled back into her seat, her expression sour.

Ye Jinwen paid her no mind, breaking free from his bonds as if escaping, and left the Ye Family.

Thankful to Brother Qi for saving him from a dire situation!

aEUR”aEUR”

Xiao Qimo drove Lu Mian back to the Xiao family estate.

This time he drove more slowly and finally parked the car steadily.

He unbuckled his seatbelt and looked at the girl beside him still deep in slumber, his eyes a boundless sea of deep affection.

He recalled the first time he drove her back to the Lu family, when she refused to answer his questions by pretending to sleep and even tricked him.

.cO

But this time, she was truly unguarded, relaxing completely as she slept.

Outside the car, the falling snowflakes became faster and denser.

Xiao Qimo got out of the car and opened the passenger door.

The maid Gui Ping stood outside with an umbrella, “Oh dear, what’s wrong with Miss Lu?”

Xiao Qimo remained silent, gently lifting Lu Mian from the car.

Gui Ping hurriedly shifted the umbrella over them.

Carrying the girl for the first time like this, he felt she was too light; holding her, he could feel her bones.

His movements were gentle, yet still managed to make the girl slightly open her eyes, and upon seeing the familiar face, she pursed her lips and closed her eyes again, continuing to sleep peacefully.

The man carried the girl all the way to his room, while the passing household staff took several curious glances.

When had their master ever carried a girl like this?!

The more they watched, the more amazed they became, and the clearer the girl’s status in the Xiao family seemed.

They went about their duties with even greater care and caution.

Xiao Qimo carried Lu Mian back to the room, with Qi Zhen and Xiao Huazun closely following and gathering around.

Qi Zhen asked earnestly, “What’s wrong with Mianmian?”

Xiao Huazun asked coldly, “Qimo, did you bully her?”

Qi Zhen added, “Brat, did you make Mianmian so angry that she went to drown her sorrows?

Serves you right for being single!”

Xiao Qimo: “…”
