Around eleven o’clock at night, Ye Xunhuan returned to the Ting Xiang Shui Xie villa.

Ye Xunhuan did not intend to return at that specific time nor did he aim to demonstrate anything to Qiu Ruoxi— he had gone to visit He Sichan!

After all, since he had taken He Luo from her, he couldn’t just ignore He Sichan completely, could he?

He Sichan now truly had no relatives left, entirely a solitary person.

At least He Duoze would not appear until he found He Sichan’s mother.

Thus, Ye Xunhuan went to check on her!

After returning to the villa, only Mother Wang was still sitting on the couch; both Wang Zilin and Qiu Ruoxi were absent.

Upon seeing Ye Xunhuan return, Mother Wang immediately got up from the couch and said to Ye Xunhuan, "Young Master, you’re back!"

"Mother Wang, why haven’t you rested yet?" Ye Xunhuan said softly, "Haven’t I said you needn’t wait up for me?"

"I’m used to it, can’t sleep until it’s time. Moreover, I was waiting up for Young Master today because I had something I wanted to discuss with you!"

"Mother Wang, what did you want to talk about?" A puzzled look slowly appeared on Ye Xunhuan’s face.

As he spoke, Ye Xunhuan sat down beside Mother Wang.

"Young Master, these are not words a servant like me should say..."

Before Mother Wang could finish, Ye Xunhuan interrupted her, "Look at what you’re saying, what ’higher-ups’ and ’lower-downs’? Mother Wang, just speak your mind!"

Now that Mother Wang knew Ye Xunhuan’s temperament, she didn’t say much else and got straight to the point: "Young Master, have you and Miss had a fight?"

Although Mother Wang knew the specifics, she still didn’t spell it out.

Mother Wang, being experienced and having been through the passage of time, understood that some things were best left unspoken and unlabeled.

Ye Xunhuan forced a smile: "Mother Wang, don’t worry, it’s nothing!"

"Young Master, I know marrying Miss has made you feel wronged and her temperament is something not every man can bear!" Mother Wang said earnestly. "I was so happy for both of you seeing how well you were getting along recently, but now you two are arguing again..."

As she spoke, Mother Wang sighed softly once more then continued, "Young Master, Miss is just like that, somewhat aloof. If there is anything unpleasant about her, please be more patient..."

"Mother Wang, don’t worry, I know what to do!"

"Young Master, fighting is very common, but there always has to be one person who steps back. If you don’t step back, and she doesn’t step back, how will this continue..."

"Mother Wang, I’ve stepped back, but Ruoxi is ignoring me!"

"Then you must have gone about it the wrong way!"

"Oh, Mother Wang, then what do you think I should do?"

"Young Master, is there any woman in the world who does not like romance?"

Ye Xunhuan shook his head without hesitation.

Every woman in the world, even the beautiful ones, ultimately belong to ordinary people, could hardly dislike romance!

"Buy Miss a bouquet of roses, take her to a movie, stroll down the streets, go shopping together—all problems will be solved!" Mother Wang simply stated.

A troubled expression slowly appeared on Ye Xunhuan’s face, "Mother Wang, I would indeed like to do that, but with Ruoxi’s temper, I’m afraid I’ll get the door slammed in my face..."

"That won’t happen. I understand Miss. She might make things difficult for you at first, but if you say something nice to her, it will definitely be fine!" Mother Wang assured Ye Xunhuan, "Moreover, Young Master, you are stronger than Miss, if she doesn’t want to go, you can just pull her along, right? Miss is really bashful. If you do this in public, she will absolutely compromise!"

"Really?"

"Why would I lie to you!"

"Mother Wang, I know what to do now, thank you!" Ye Xunhuan instantly brightened up, and his mind began to scheme on what to do next!

"Son-in-law, then I won’t say much, it’s getting late, you should rest early!"

Mom Wang had not mentioned Ye Xunhuan before because she knew Qiu Ruoxi was still angry back then. A few days had passed now, Qiu Ruoxi’s anger must have subsided. Moreover, Mom Wang had already given Qiu Ruoxi some advice. Now, with Ye Xunhuan shamelessly taking Qiu Ruoxi out on romantic dates, Mom Wang could be sure that this couple wouldn’t have much to worry about!

The next day, everything was as usual: after breakfast, Ye Xunhuan, Qiu Ruoxi, and Wang Zilin left the villa one after another to go to work!

This time, after Ye Xunhuan arrived at Huan Maps Corporation, he did not go directly to his own office but went to find Qiu Ruoxi instead.

Upon reaching the door of Qiu Ruoxi’s office, Ye Xunhuan pushed the door and entered.

Seeing Ye Xunhuan come to find herself so early in the morning, a hint of puzzlement couldn’t help but surface in Qiu Ruoxi’s heart!

"What is it?"

Looking at Qiu Ruoxi’s somewhat cold and pretty face, Ye Xunhuan said playfully, "Look at you, can’t I come here to see you if there’s nothing wrong? We are married; we even got the certificate!"

"How come I never saw you come so diligently before?" Qiu Ruoxi snorted coldly.

Ye Xunhuan’s eyes moved slightly, and he started scanning Qiu Ruoxi’s body back and forth, "Wife, it seems you really want me to come and see you..."

Qiu Ruoxi was taken aback, then remembered what she had said before, only then realizing that her previous words contained too many meanings!

"You’re overthinking it!"

"Am I?" Ye Xunhuan slowly walked to Qiu Ruoxi’s side and said with a smile, "Women are creatures who say one thing but mean another!"

Qiu Ruoxi couldn’t be bothered to deal with Ye Xunhuan and simply lowered her head, not looking at Ye Xunhuan anymore.

Arguing with words, she was no match for Ye Xunhuan, this was very clear in her mind.

Since she couldn’t win, it was better to remain silent!

Seeing Qiu Ruoxi switching to a ’phone in airplane mode’ state, Ye Xunhuan snapped his fingers with his right hand, and a blooming bright red rose suddenly appeared in his hand, as if by magic, looking very mysterious!

Qiu Ruoxi was slightly startled upon seeing the rose before her.

This... this guy can do magic?

"Wife, this is for you, do you like it?"

Qiu Ruoxi didn’t even bother to take it, instead saying with some disdain, "Childish!"

Facing Qiu Ruoxi’s disdain, Ye Xunhuan was completely accustomed to it, "Wife, how about this one?"

As he spoke, Ye Xunhuan’s left hand also snapped a finger.

The next moment, two tickets to Happy Valley appeared in Ye Xunhuan’s hands!

Qiu Ruoxi was stunned. Had this guy changed his profession to become a magician?

"I wonder if Ms. Qiu, the great beauty, would honor me by going to Happy Valley together after work..."

"I’m busy!" Qiu Ruoxi immediately refused.

"Are you really busy?" Ye Xunhuan’s mouth corners lifted slightly, slowly revealing a mischievous smile.

Seeing the naughty smile on Ye Xunhuan’s lips, a bad premonition suddenly rose in Qiu Ruoxi’s heart, "What... what are you planning to do?"

"Wife, what do you think would happen if I carry you out from here in front of everyone at the office today?" Ye Xunhuan said nonchalantly.

"You wouldn’t dare!"

"You think I wouldn’t?"

As he said this, Ye Xunhuan bent down, quickly spun Qiu Ruoxi’s office chair around with his hand, then bent over and lifted Qiu Ruoxi out of the chair!
