A black Land Rover was passing through a gravel road. Because the road had not been repaired for a long time, it was full of potholes and uneven, and the car was slightly bumpy.
The middle-aged man driving in front looked at the girl sitting behind him through the rearview mirror.
She was wearing a simple white sports suit, her face was fair and clean, and she was looking out the window with her chin in her hands, wondering what she was thinking.
The man sighed slightly. He was obviously a pampered young lady, but now he had to be sent to such a small place to avoid trouble. It was really pitiful to think about it.
"Miss, we are going to Xiangyang County soon, please bear with us a little longer."
Hearing this, Ye Zhiyin looked away from the outside and replied calmly, "Yes, I understand, Uncle Liu."
Seeing that there was no trace of impatience on her face, and that she didn't even cry or make a fuss when her family decided to send her over, Uncle Liu couldn't help but feel that this child was too sensible.
But the more sensible you are, the easier it is to make people feel distressed.
"Miss, don't worry. I believe that your husband and wife will get through this difficult time. Once those things are taken care of, I will come to take you home."
Ye Zhiyin's expression didn't change much, but she was still grateful for Uncle Liu's comfort, "Thank you, Uncle Liu."
The man sighed slightly, feeling that some comforting words would only become weaker and weaker, so he did not speak again.
The car became quiet again.
Ye Zhiyin looked out the window and sighed inwardly. Only she knew the pain in her heart.
A few days ago, she unfortunately lost her book.
What's even more unfortunate is that she's wearing the villainous female counterpart in the book who has the same name and surname as her.
She was originally an outstanding young man in this world, with excellent grades. She successfully won the top prize in the college entrance examination that year. Later, she studied for a bachelor's degree and a master's degree together, and through her own efforts, she was qualified to stay in school.
My future was bright, I had winter and summer vacations, my classes were easy, my salary was good, and my job was decent and stable.
Who would have thought that he would come here just to take a nap.
When Ye Zhiyin thought about her ending in the novel, she felt her brain aching.
She was a cannon fodder female supporting character with a good family background, but she became a stepping stone for the male protagonist to cheat his life. Her family business was bankrupted by the male protagonist with just one sentence.
Of course, the only good thing is that the evil things done by the female protagonist have not started yet, which means that it is not too late.
She doesn't need to work diligently to change the protagonist's impression of her like an enemy.
Now the plot has reached a point where she was forced to come to Xiangyang County to avoid disaster.
At this time, Uncle Liu reminded her, "Miss, Xiangyang County has arrived."
Ye Zhiyin looked out the car window at the crowded streets. It was not as prosperous as a big city, but instead had a down-to-earth urban atmosphere.
Xiangyang is the hometown of the male protagonist, and it is also when he was most impoverished. At this time, he was not the Huo Junye who would dominate the shopping mall in the future.
Ye Zhiyin remembered that in the original novel, she was supposed to stay at the hero's house.
As for the reason, the Ye family's parents were worried that their precious daughter would be wronged, and the male protagonist's family happened to have been indebted to the Ye family before, so they agreed to help take care of Ye Zhiyin and said they would not neglect Ye Zhiyin.
"Miss, we've arrived at Xie's house."
Oh, by the way, the male protagonist’s current family name is Xie.
"good."
The Xie family owns a mahjong parlor. When the car arrived at the entrance of the shop, the clanging sound of mahjong could be heard from time to time inside.
Uncle Liu got out of the car and knocked on the door several times.
Soon a woman smoking a cigarette and wearing pajamas came out.
Looking at Uncle Liu in suits and ties, he asked:
"Who?"
Uncle Liu couldn't help but frown when he saw how this person was dressed. Are you sure this family can take good care of the young lady?
"Hello, I'm from the Ye family."
When the woman heard this, her attitude immediately improved and she put on a smile, "Oh, it turns out she is from the Ye family, come in quickly!"
Uncle Liu glanced at the smoky environment inside and said, "No, let's talk outside."
The guests inside were also looking outside eagerly at this time. With the luxury cars and well-dressed men, they couldn't help but guess that the Xie family had become a wealthy person.
The woman readily agreed.
The two walked to a corner to chat about something.
Ye Zhiyin sat in the car and looked in their direction.
Uncle Liu must be explaining something, and she even saw Uncle Liu holding a thick paper bag and handing it to the woman.
But the woman was evading, and it seemed she didn't want the money.
The two of them grinded for a while before the woman took the paper bag and finally walked this way together.
While walking, I heard the woman reassure her again and again, "Don't worry, Brother Liu, I will take care of this child as if it were my own."
When he walked to the car, Uncle Liu knocked on the window.
Ye Zhiyin also knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, so he opened the door and got out of the car.
Uncle Liu was doing ideological work for her, "Miss, her name is Xie Wenxiu. You can call her Auntie Xie. She will take care of you during this period."
Ye Zhiyin nodded lightly, "I understand."
Xie Wenxiu smiled, and the wrinkles at the end of her eyes were particularly obvious, "The little girl is so pretty."
Uncle Liu saw that the explanation was almost finished, his eyebrows were a little solemn, "Miss, I will go back first, you... take care..."
Uncle Liu still felt that the little girl was unfamiliar with the place and was really pitiful when she came to this place.
At this time, Ye Zhiyin suddenly said, "Uncle Liu, please tell your parents at home, just say, don't worry about me."
The Ye family is really kind to Ye Zhiyin, so Ye Zhiyin is willing to be filial to them in the future for the original owner.
Uncle Liu didn't expect that the child was still worried about his family at this time. He just felt that the young lady had really become more sensible than before.
"Miss, I understand."
The two of them were talking to each other, and Xie Wenxiu stood aside knowingly without disturbing them.
At this moment, there was suddenly the sound of a motorcycle engine roaring from a distance, and a group of cars quickly drove to the entrance of the mahjong parlor.
The leading boy was wearing a short leather jacket, his hair was very short, and he was dressed in a cool style. His long and narrow eyes were sharply scanning at the luxury car in front of his house and the people standing next to him.
The group of boys behind obviously saw it, "I said, what's going on, Brother Ye, why is there a luxury car in front of your house?"
"Wait a minute, that girl is so straight."
Some people even whistled at Ye Zhiyin.
A few boys looked irritated.
Xie Ye turned around and glanced at them, "Have you never seen a woman? They are about to leave."
The few people seemed to listen to him and didn't waste any time. They left quickly on their motorcycles.
Ye Zhiyin naturally noticed him. Looking at his outstanding appearance and considering the description in the book, she knew that he was the hero of this article.
At this time, his name was still Xie Ye.
She remembered the book explaining that the male protagonist was in the same year as the original protagonist. Calculating the timeline, he had just finished the college entrance examination like herself.
The book says that the male protagonist has very good academic performance and has always been at the top of his class. While he was in school, many prestigious schools already offered him places.
He has a very high IQ, otherwise he would not have grown up rapidly and taken over the family business after returning to the Huo family.
Xie Ye glanced at her casually, his eyes cold, looking very untouchable.
He hung his helmet casually in the car, opened the door and entered the mahjong parlor.
Didn't seem to care what they were doing at his door.
