When they finally reached Ye Youyouâs home, it had been two full hours since they had set off. A glance at the clock revealed that it was almost twelve.
This was a famous villa estate in Kingstown, and all its residents were either the rich or the powerful. All the cars they passed were luxury ones, and Shen Zhilieâs bright-colored Porsche no longer stood out.
Shen Zhilie and Ye Qianqian tried to find the place from memory, but after driving in circles, they still couldnât find Li Jinnanâs home. Ye Qianqian had no choice but to give Ye Youyou a call.
Ye Youyou was in the middle of cooking when she received Ye Qianqianâs call. She burst out laughing unceremoniously and asked, âWhere are you now?â
âUm... weâre at number three...â
âMy place is number eight. Youâll see a black iron gate with a pot of roses at the entrance. Head south, then head east, and youâll see it.â
Ye Qianqina was silent for a moment before responding, âCanât you use left and right in your directions? How on earth am I supposed to know where North, South, East, and West are?â
Ye Youyou laughed aloud. âIsnât Shen Zhilie with you? Have him show you the way. Iâm busy cooking, so Iâm going to hang up now.â
Ye Qianqian gritted her teeth when she heard the disconnect tone. Shen Zhilie glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and asked, âWhere should I go?â
âHead south, and then east.â
Shen Zhilie stepped on the gas pedal immediately and sped off. Ye Qianqian widened her eyes and asked in disbelief, âYou know where that is?â
âNot everyone is unable to identify North, South, East, and West like you!â Shen Zhilie remarked with a sense of self-satisfaction. âIâm not nicknamed âThe Live Mapâ for nothing!â
âWell, I have the GPS to help me when I go out! I just didnât know the house number!â Ye Qianqian said indignantly. She puffed her chest out and challenged, âI dare you to enter the house number into the GPS system. I can guarantee that weâll be there in no time.â
âAll right! Fine.â Shen Zhilie couldnât contain his smile. âThereâs a box of biscuits in the back of the car. Give that to Youyou,â he said.
âWhat? When did you buy a box of biscuits?â
Shen Zhilie rubbed his nose in embarrassment before replying, âIâve had it for a while. My colleague gave it to me a while ago. Since we canât exactly go to Youyouâs home empty-handed, I brought it along as a gift.â
âWell, sheâs my sister. You donât have to stand on ceremony.â But, despite saying this, she nevertheless turned back to retrieve the box of biscuits.
The biscuits were of an expensive brand and were boxed pretty elaborately. âHow long have these biscuits been kept for?â Ye Qianqian asked. âCan they still be eaten?â
âYeah. The shelf life of such products is at least half a year, isnât it? Iâm sure they can still be eaten.â
Shen Zhilie wasnât genuinely sure either and quickly checked the expiration date. Only when he had verified that the biscuits were indeed still edible did he feel reassured.
âHere it is!â Ye Qianqian saw a cluster of particularly lush red roses climbing up some railings and fanning out in a floral display.
Behind the black iron railings was a beautiful green yard. One look, and it was obvious that the property was huge.
This wasnât Ye Qianqianâs first visit, but it still took her breath away. With a tinge of envy in her eyes, Ye Qianqian unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car with the box of biscuits in her hands.
While the envy in her eyes wasnât obvious, Shen Zhilie noticed it nonetheless. He didnât say a word and merely parked the car and got out before heading to the entrance and pressing the doorbell.
The door opened very quickly. When Ye Qianqian and Shen Zhilie walked in, they were greeted by the luxurious yet simple interior of the house. Ye Youyou was in the middle of preparing the last dish when she saw them enter and said, âYouâre here! Just in time for lunch! Sister, why donât you come and help me?â
âSure!â Ye Qianqian took off her shoes and changed into a clean pair of slippers before heading in. However, when she saw Ye Youyou remove her apron, she asked in surprise, âHow did your belly grow so quickly?â
