Chapter 826: Yize, I Heard Ah-Wan Is Awake?


    Editor: Henyee Trantions


    At the Xiao family’s old residence, Xiao Yize got out of the car and opened the door for Gu Yang and Gu Jin.


    Behind them, another luxury car pulled up and stopped.


    “Brother Yize!” Ye Qingzi called out happily upon recognizing Xiao Yize’s license te from afar. She hade to the Xiao residence with her mother, Qin Shuzhen, to visit Tong Wan. However, her smile froze when she saw Gu Jin and Gu Yang stepping out of the back seat.


    Qin Shuzhen, the elegant and dignified madam of the Ye family, was nearly 50 years old but looked much younger due to her meticulous self-care. As a member of one of the four great families in the capital, she carried herself with the grace and poise befitting her status. She was also Tong Wan’s university ssmate and best friend. Before Tong Wan’s ident, the two families were very close and often interacted.


    Despite the strained rtionship between the families following Tong Wan’s ne ident, Xiao Yize still treated his mother’s good friend with the respect she deserved. However, it was merely respect, far from the close bond they shared when he was younger.


    Xiao Yize ignored Ye Qingzi and nodded politely at Qin Shuzhen. “Auntie Qin.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Qin Shuzhen’s gaze lingered on Gu Yang and Gu Jin for a moment before she turned her attention back to Xiao Yize with a smile. She asked excitedly, “Yize, I heard that Ah-Wan is awake. Is that true?”


    Xiao Yize nodded lightly.


    Thanks to Gu Yang’s treatment and the perfume she provided, Tong Wan’s mental state had stabilized. After discussing it with his father, Xiao Yize decided to announce that the mistress of the Xiao family, Tong Wan, had woken up.


    Back then, his mother’s ident was the result of the Francis family’s revenge on the Xiao family in Continent O. However, the Francis family alone couldn’t have executed such a meticulous n in China. Over the years, he and his father analyzed the incident and concluded that the Francis family had a spy—there was a traitor among them.


    Qin Shuzhen’s eyes filled with tears of joy. “Is Ah-Wan at home now? Qingzi and I brought some tonics to visit her.”


    “Auntie Qin, you’re wee to visit my mother,” Xiao Yize said, his eyes cold and distant. “But Ye Qingzi is not worthy of entering the Xiao family home, nor is she worthy of appearing in front of my mother.”


    Ye Qingzi felt as if she had fallen into an ice cer under his icy gaze.


    “Brother Yize…” Ye Qingzi began.


    “Don’t call me that,” Xiao Yize interrupted. “We’re not familiar with each other, and I don’t want my girlfriend to misunderstand.”


    Ye Qingzi tightened her grip on the gift bag, finding the word “girlfriend” particrly jarring. Although she had already guessed that Xiao Yize was in love with Gu Jin, hearing it still caused her heart to ache.


    She had done so much for him, even studying medicine overseas for his sake. She had worked tirelessly to resolve the grudge between them, but now he was enamored with Gu Jin!


    Feeling indignant, Ye Qingzi red at Gu Jin, wanting to say something, but was stopped by Qin Shuzhen.


    Qin Shuzhen examined Gu Yang and Gu Jin seriously. “Yize, are these two youngdies your friends?”


    Xiao Yize held Gu Jin’s hand. “Auntie Qin, this is my girlfriend, Gu Jin. And this is her sister, Gu Yang.”


    As Tong Wan’s good friend, Qin Shuzhen was an elder, so Gu Yang and Gu Jin greeted her politely.


    Qin Shuzhen’s attitude was friendly. “You both look so young. You haven’t graduated yet, right?”


    Xiao Yize responded proudly, “My girlfriend and her sister just entered Hua University with full marks on the College Entrance Examination.”


    Ye Qingzi’s heart ached even more upon hearing that. So what if it was Hua University? She had returned from studying at a world-renowned institution!
