Su Yuning was tilting her head, savoring the comfort of her sleep, when she suddenly saw her sister and brother - in - law coming downstairs hand in hand. She felt a bit proud.
"Hey, it seems I'm not the laziest one in this family."
She patted her chest and laughed stupidly. "I was relieved. When I woke up and found you weren't there, I was afraid Mom would insinuate that I was lazy. I didn't expect you, sister, to go find your husband."
"What, did you have a great second sleep cuddled up with your man?" She winked at Jiang Beihuai.
After gulping down a large glass of water, she finally got to the point. "Sister, when are we going to your old home?"
Bai Wenxi took out her phone and glanced at the time. "Hurry up and wash up. We're leaving soon."
Su Yuning let out a wail instantly and rushed to brush her teeth and wash her face.
When they got to the kitchen, Aunt Su had already laid out all the breakfast. She was just waiting for everyone to eat.
She even specially saved a whole cooked egg for Bai Wenxi. She nudged her niece's waist with her elbow and whispered in her ear.
"Auntie has given you a chance to show off. Now, peel the egg for him. If you get into this habit, he'll get used to your presence every morning."
As she was speaking, she stared suspiciously at her niece's earlobe for a long time. "What's wrong with your ear? Why is it so red?"
Bai Wenxi could only act innocent, her round eyes full of confusion. "Oh, is it red? Maybe I'm a bit allergic. I just felt itchy and scratched it a few times."
Aunt Su quickly pushed her hand away. "Don't scratch. Your skin is so delicate. What if it bleeds?"
Jiang Beihuai held back his laughter and stuffed sandwich into his mouth bite by bite. Bai Wenxi didn't dare to lose her temper with him in front of the elders, so she secretly kicked him under the table several times.
Jiang Beihuai only felt that his wife's kicks were like a kitten scratching. After being kicked several times, his legs didn't even hurt.
The phone kept ringing with notification sounds. Bai Wenxi took it out and saw that they were all text messages from Senior Yu.
He was very polite and reminded the junior sister to be careful on the road and drive safely.
Jiang Beihuai snatched the phone. After just a glance, he gave Bai Wenxi a menacing look.
"When we get there later, don't say a word. Let Uncle and Aunt deal with him."
Bai Wenxi saw that her husband was jealous. She smiled and tapped the tip of his nose. "Jealousy boy, I know. I didn't have much to do with him in the first place. I only met him once or twice after I came back, and we haven't been in touch since."
They arrived at the appointed time.
As soon as Bai Wenxi and her group parked the car, they saw Yu Chenhe standing in front of the house looking around from afar.
Su Yuning didn't understand the situation yet and kept praising. "Sure enough, he's a top - notch student who has returned from studying abroad. He's so polite. He's actually waiting for us at the door."
Jiang Beihuai was even more upset. He was determined to meet this Senior Yu and see what was so special about him.
Originally, Yu Chenhe thought Bai Wenxi would come alone, so he dressed up specially. He even put on a bit of expensive perfume.
When he found that there were elders present, he immediately looked dejected. He just smiled faintly and greeted them. "Junior sister, you've come to look for some old documents."
Bai Wenxi was afraid that he would think it was troublesome, so she quickly explained. "Because some documents were left in the basement when we sold the house in a hurry. Now we need them for something very important, so we're daring to bother you."
Yu Chenhe waved his hand. "Why are you talking about bothering between us? Since I moved here, I haven't touched any of the facilities inside."
He didn't find it a burden at all. Instead, he hid his excitement because he saw his junior sister. "I just had someone clean the basement, so the documents you're looking for should still be in the old place."
Bai Wenxi was very grateful. Uncle and Aunt Su glanced at each other and saw relief in each other's eyes.
As soon as they walked into the living room, Su Yuning shouted loudly. "Wow, Mr. Yu, you're really amazing. This is what it means to keep everything as it was! This house is no different from when it wasn't sold."
Yu Chenhe was extremely embarrassed. He felt that the little girl seemed to have seen through his thoughts.
But Bai Wenxi didn't react much. He didn't dare to say more. He just hung a proper smile and said nothing.
Since they met, Jiang Beihuai had been sizing up Yu Chenhe. At the same time, Yu Chenhe was also secretly peeping at the man beside the junior sister.
He was handsome and tall, with sword - shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. What was even rarer was that he had a straight posture and a strong build.
He sighed imperceptibly in his heart. No wonder the junior sister was willing to marry him. He was also a handsome, young and promising high - quality man, not inferior to himself at all.
Jiang Beihuai actually felt a deep sense of crisis. He found that Yu Chenhe was the typical gentle and well - spoken gentleman.
Moreover, he obviously came from a wealthy family. There was an indescribable confidence and bearing in his every move.
He had already regarded Yu Chenhe as a potential love rival and was determined to guard against him at all times.
Although his wife looked at him openly, this senior obviously had an indescribable affection for Bai Wenxi. His eyes were always on her, and there was a deep passion hidden in his behavior.
When he first moved in, because the water and electricity were old, Yu Chenhe had invited craftsmen to renovate the house. So now there were new wires in the basement. When the incandescent lamp was turned on, it was as bright as day inside.
Bai Wenxi quickly found her mother's medical records and some hospital documents on the old bookshelf.
She hugged the stack of documents tightly in her arms.
She was glad that Yao Chunmei disliked the dirty and messy basement and hardly ever came down. Otherwise, these documents would definitely have been destroyed by her.
Su Zhengfeng thought that Yao Chunmei believed that after so many years, Su Xingfei's death was a foregone conclusion and no one would pursue it. So with a woman's secret thoughts, she didn't bother to deal with these documents.
Yu Chenhe didn't know what had happened. He only saw that the junior sister carefully put the documents into a sealed bag, and the people with her all looked relieved.
He straightened his tie and politely invited. "Junior sister, would you like to have lunch with your family here before you leave? I've already asked the aunt to buy some food to entertain you."
Before Bai Wenxi could say anything, Jiang Beihuai stepped in between them.
"Who are you?" Jiang Beihuai clearly knew who he was, but he still put on a show.
Yu Chenhe paused for a moment and reached out his hand friendly. "My surname is Yu. I'm Junior Sister Bai's fellow senior."
"O~~~"
Jiang Beihuai deliberately dragged out the tone and misinterpreted his meaning casually. "So you're a classmate. We still have to thank you for not clearing away all the Bai family's old things. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to find these important documents."
He took out a business card from his wallet and stuffed it into Yu Chenhe's hand. "Since you're my wife's classmate and senior, please take this business card. If you have anything to do in the future, you can come to me. I'm very happy to make friends with you."
