Ye Jia walked out of the kitchen with two cups of milk. Sister Ling said respectfully to Long Yingqi, "Second Young Master, the Madam and Young Master Tianming's plane will land at 9 o'clock on time. It's about time."
Sister Ling looked at her watch and said, "It will take at least two hours to get to the airport. Time is short." Long Yingqi nodded and said, "I know!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang! The sound of the glass hitting the ground resounded throughout the entire dining room. Ye Jia stood there in shock, not even realizing that her feet were in pain from the scalding milk. However, Long Shengjie who was sitting at the table howled, "Ye Jia!" "You bastard, you scald me to death!"
Holy! Bright! Long Tianming! Ye Jia was so shocked by these two words that she could not hear anything around her.
"You-!" Sister Ling stepped forward and slapped her hard, "Are you going to die?! "So stupid!"
Ye Jia was woken up by Sister Ling's sudden slap. She screamed and fell to the side, just as her body was about to hit the ground. A strong arm grabbed her slim waist and lifted her into the arms of one of the men.
The person who could so easily rescue her was obviously not Long Shengjie. Long Yingqi looked at the handsome face that was just inches away with an evil smile, "What's wrong with you?" Is the daybreak really that stressful for you? "
Ye Jia, who was seen through, wanted to get up from his arms, but she couldn't. The grip on her waist became tighter and tighter, and Ye Jia clearly felt the aura of hatred coming from Long Yingqi's body. Although it wasn't as thick as Long Haochen's, it was still enough to make her panic.
And Long Yingqi's always gentle and refined expression was gone, replaced with a cold one, just like Long Haochen's coldness! Long Yingqi was like this, she had only seen him like this last night. The moment he warned her not to be too curious!
Sister Ling also felt that something wasn't right, but she stood to the side and didn't dare to make a sound. Only Long Shengjie was calmly eating his plate of breakfast. As he was eating, he urged the kitchen loudly, "Hurry up! I want milk! "
"Sorry, let me make another cup for you." Ye Jia said in a daze.
"No need!" Long Yingqi let go of her, stood up from his chair, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and walked towards the door. After a while, he heard the sound of a Ferrari pulling out of the Long family mansion.
Inside the restaurant, Sister Ling angrily glared at Ye Jia and scolded, "Hungry Second Young Master, even if you lose ten lives, it won't be enough! Hurry up and clean up the floor! "
Ye Jia snapped out of her shock, lightly took a breath, knelt on the ground and started to wipe the floor with a clean cloth. He thought to himself, "Second Young Master is such a big person, would he starve to death if he didn't eat a meal? I'm afraid he's not that delicate?"
Long Shengjie jumped down from his chair and stood in front of Ye Jia. He smiled and said, "Ye Jia, second brother said you are very smart, but why do I think you are so stupid?"
Ye Jia angrily glanced at him, "You don't seem to be intelligent either?" However, Second Young Master said she was smart? When did it happen? How could she not know about such an important matter? Raising his eyes to look at Long Shengjie, he happily asked, "Is that really what the second young master said?"
Long Shengjie nodded. "When he came back that day and saw the jigsaw puzzle, he knew that someone had touched it. I had to admit that he broke it and then asked you to piece it back together. He said that normal people wouldn't be able to put it back. He praised you for your intelligence!" Long Shengjie said fawningly. He had always felt quite ashamed of himself for not being able to escape with her last time.
"I cheated." She had explored many ways in Long Haochen's room, which was why it was so easy to link them back together. If she hadn't explored it, she wouldn't have been able to risk it all and go back.
"What are you talking about?" Long Shengjie didn't hear her clearly and stretched his head towards her.
"It's nothing!" Suddenly, she started to worry about what would happen next, ma'am? Long Tianming? Dear God! Just what kind of family was this? It was so complicated!
Ye Jia turned around to take a look outside the restaurant. Seeing that Sister Ling had already left, she started to continue her conversation with Long Shengjie. "Long Tianming …" Is that the third brother that you keep hanging in your mouth all day? "
Long Shengjie was stunned for a moment before he replied with a smile, "That's not it. Third brother's name is Long Haoyu. Long Tianming is my cousin." At the mention of Long Tianming, Long Shengjie became very excited. "Big brother Tianming dotes on me, so you often bring me to the amusement park. You even take me to eat good food, and you even take me to …"
"Alright, alright. I know that he treats you well now." Ye Jia wasn't in the mood to listen to him count Long Tianming's talents. Long Tianming was indeed a very considerate man. She had to admit that, but she'd been a bit careless with her private life.
Long Tianming had always been an only child, so why would she think he was the third young master of the Long family? Ye Jia cursed herself for being so stupid. She kept messing with the identity of this young master of her house.
Originally, Ye Jia wanted to ask something more, but she suddenly saw Sister Ling's figure faintly appearing in the restaurant. She had no choice but to endure it. After cleaning up the restaurant, she hid in the backyard.
Hiding in the laundry room, Ye Jia secretly thought to herself, if I can find an excuse, I should not go out to the front yard. Although she didn't know what sort of person Long Tianming was, she didn't want to see him at all! Since it had nothing to do with him, he might as well avoid it!
The most important thing was that the Long family's failure was somewhat strange. According to Long Haoxuan's hatred for her, this matter definitely wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface. But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't figure out the problem. What did the Long family's failure have to do with her? Why would Long Haoxuan say that she was the one to blame?
She just cancelled the engagement when the Long family went bankrupt. Was it really that unforgivable? Did he have to endure Long Haochen's cruel treatment and revenge? Even if he wanted to hate her, that should be Long Tianming's doing!
When it was close to eleven o'clock, Ye Jia heard the sound of a car approaching from afar. Her body jolted as she looked through the flowers in the garden and saw a limousine in the form of a business car pull up slowly.
Following Sister Ling's instructions, a row of maids and servants stood aside respectfully to welcome them. Ye Jia, who was afraid of being caught by Sister Ling, quickly turned around and entered the glass-flower garden.
In front of the main house, just as the car came to a stop, a male servant walked up to the door and opened it. He respectfully lowered his head and said, "Madam, Young Master Tianming, Greetings to Second Young Master."
"Yes, hello." Lady Long smiled and nodded at him, then extended her hand and placed it on his shoulder before getting out of the car. Then he turned around and said, "Be careful, don't touch Young Master Tianming's wounds."
"Yes." The servant was curious as to why Long Tianming had suddenly turned into a cripple, but he didn't dare show it. He pulled the wheelchair out of the trunk and helped Long Tianming get off the car.
After everyone had alighted, the servants smiled and said in unison, "Welcome, Madam. Young Master Tianming is back."
Lady Long was especially amused by this group of people. She smiled and pointed her index finger at Sister Ling, chuckling. "Ailing, it's your trick again, isn't it? You really know how to play. " He then glanced around and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, Ailing. Take out the gift box in the trunk of the car and share it with everyone."
"Yes, ma'am." Sister Ling walked to the trunk with a smile on her face. While she was feeling happy, Sister Ling naturally didn't notice Ye Jia, who was deliberately running away. She was lucky!
In contrast to Madam Long's good mood, Long Tianming was sitting in a wheelchair with a face full of annoyance. He wasn't too handsome, but his manly face was currently filled with a ruthless aura. No one could accept the fact that a normal man had become a cripple in a single night. No one could blame him for becoming strange!
The group walked inside the house. Madam Long asked Sister Ling, who had followed them inside. "Is Eldest Young Master coming back today?"
"I will, I just called Eldest Young Master. He said that after he's done with his work, he'll come back to accompany Madam and Young Master Tianming for dinner." Sister Ling told Madam Long about the news she just heard when she called Long Haochen.
Madam Long thought for a moment and said considerately, "You should call the eldest young master. If he's busy, then just let him be busy. He doesn't necessarily have to come back and accompany us to eat. It's too tiring to drive from Peace City to the city, which is four hours less. "
"Madam, I understand." Sister Ling nodded.
Long Tianming, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke, "We've only traveled four hours. Let Haoxuan return. It's been a long time since we last drank together." At the mention of this, Long Tianming's face finally showed a less vicious expression.
Madam Long looked at him and scolded, "Yesterday, when we left the hospital, the doctor told you that you can't drink. How did you forget? We've already thrown Hao Xuan and Inge into chaos, but you still want to bother them? " Long Yingqi flew back from England to welcome them because they were returning home. Long Haochen was busily doing everything for them, so busy that his head was spinning. The two brothers were still busy helping Long Tianming clean up the Long family's mess.
"Aunt, don't say it like that. We are the ones who are responsible for all of this, aren't we?" Long Yingqi smiled as he comforted her.
Madam Long let out a light sigh and patted Long Yingqi's hand apologetically. "If I didn't say it, I wouldn't have felt so bad. After the Long family's accident, you guys would've been implicated. You really shouldn't!" Inge, you suddenly came back, won't the British branch be a mess? "
"Aunt, don't worry. I have arranged for people to take care of my affairs in England. I will be back in a few days. Nothing will happen." Towards his aunt, who was even more intimate than his own mother, Long Yingqi did not hesitate no matter what she did.
Ever since their biological parents had left, it had always been their uncles and aunts taking care of them, providing them with a superior living environment. The sudden incident this time had already made the brothers blame themselves enough. They felt that they had not taken good care of their uncles and families.
