Chapter 405: Chapter 405: Does He Love Her? He Doesn’t Know...

[Paris VG: Rising Star Designer Ye’s Nirvana and Takeoff]

[Milan Fashion: The Brightest Star of Radiant Flowing Light---Ye]

[Imperial City Entertainment is reporting: Promoting National Prestige, Jewelry Industry’s New Wave Striking Hard!]

...

Every link clicked, different wording, same protagonist.

It was clearly just a jewelry gala, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into a nationwide celebration.

It seems Ye Li is the hottest topic now, every section wants a piece of her.

The entertainment section says Ye Li’s face belonged to the entertainment industry, she could’ve lived on her looks alone, but chooses to rely on talent!

The fashion world is even more enthusiastic; from "Shining with You" to "Radiant," Ye Li is being praised as a once-in-a-century genius designer capturing earth and heaven’s essence.

Especially Ye Li’s work, which was auctioned on the spot at a cocktail party by the French royal family for two billion, it became a hot topic.

Magazines.

Webpages.

Forums.

All places are about Ye, or Ye Li’s Studio.

The shadow of Dane Studio was nowhere to be seen.

Looking at those joyful yet glaring words, Dai Qingzhou’s face turned stone-cold.

Behind, Lydia and the others didn’t dare to breathe.

Bang!

The car door slammed shut, looking at the familiar street scene, Dai Qingzhou had an unexplainable rage burning inside.

Suppressing his anger, he said, "Back to the studio."

The car sped forward.

In the Fu Mansion, Xiao Bao offered his findings from the vintage shop like treasure to Old Mrs. Fu.

A light yet well-crafted feather pen.

A subtly luxurious gemstone brooch.

And a bottle of pink potion.

As soon as the instruction came out, Old Mrs. Fu took one look and laughed with little Bao, her face creased with joy.

Potion: Elixir of Youth

Function: Immortality, Eternal Youth.

Usage Method: Blablabla...

Old Mrs. Fu’s eyes squinted with laughter, "Xiao Bao’s gift to great-grandmother, great-grandmother loves it so much, thank you Xiao Bao!"

Being praised, Xiao Bao looked at Fu Yanci proudly, as if to say: See? I knew great-grandmother would like it!

Fu Yanci shook his head with a smile.

The sky turned dark; Fu Yanci and Ye Li left gifts for Old Mrs. Fu and the old housekeeper, then drove to the Ye Mansion.

The old housekeeper’s constant "Thank you, young master." was no more.

Neither was the occasional "Brother Mu," nor Fu Yanci’s imposing "Fu Muzhi."

With the surroundings quiet, Xiao Bao looked at the pink gift box in his hand, couldn’t help but purse his lips.

That was meant for Lin Kerou.

It was a butterfly brooch embedded with pink gemstones.

At the vintage shop, he immediately noticed it.

He opened the watch, and on the small screen was a crying emoji.

Above it was a message from Lin Kerou.

[Xiao Bao, don’t you love mom anymore?]

[Please care for mom, okay?]

[Crying.jpg]

He did not ignore her.

But he was on the plane and couldn’t receive her new messages.

But upon seeing the words, "Don’t you love mom anymore?" Xiao Bao’s expression went blank for a moment.

Does he love her?

He doesn’t know...

Lan Qi said that children love their parents unconditionally.

But Xiao Bao felt he wasn’t.

If she still treated him as before, he would definitely not love her.

After all, who likes being hungry, likes being hit, likes being locked in a cage?

But if he doesn’t love, why did he bring gifts for her?

One side was Lin Kerou crying saying, "Xiao Bao mom is wrong."

The other side was Ye Xiaoli smiling saying, "Brother Mu, let’s play."

Looking at the pink gift box in his hand, Xiao Bao’s troubled expression became more tangled.

Thump thump!

The door knocks, Xiao Bao quickly hid the gift box in the bookshelf.

Then opened the door, it was the smiling old butler, "Young master, during your absence, Ms. Lin sent these gifts for you."

The latest model of remote-controlled aircraft.

Ultraman cards that all kids have.

And the newest educational toys.

Looking at the pile of gifts almost like a small mountain, Xiao Bao made up his mind, opened his watch, and sent Lin Kerou a message.

[I brought a gift for you, will you come to get it?]

Upon receiving the message, Lin Kerou was socializing.

Glancing at her phone, Lin Kerou’s eyes lit up.

Fu Yanci and Ye Li have returned from Paris?

[Xiao Bao, it’s too late today, mom will come see you tomorrow, ok?]

After waiting for a long time, the phone did not light up again.

Lin Kerou sent a hug emoji, got up and walked to the center of the crowd, "President Yin..."

In the pitch-dark room, Xiao Bao lowered his eyebrows.

After a long while, he exited the chat, and sent Ye Li a message.

[Ye Xiaoli...] I’m not happy.

"I have a little donkey I never ride..."

The amusing children’s rhyme played; the tablet in the suitcase lit up.

Xiao Bao’s eyes brightened, turned on the light, rifled through the suitcase, and connected the video call.

"Brother Mu, what’s up?"

On the video, Ye Xiaoli’s smile was dazzling, "I knew you’d regret it. How about letting your little uncle pick you up, huh?"

The screen switched to show the dining room of the Ye Mansion.

On the table, steaming hotpot, bright red crayfish.

And bubbly cold cola.

Xiao Bao swallowed his saliva, hesitated, and shook his head: Better... not, it’s so late!

"Better forget it..."

Ye Li shook her head, "Back and forth, it’s too much of a waste of time. I’ll call the driver to bring you over. Waiting for you!"

Ye Xiaoli was laughing.

Little uncle was laughing too.

Even Grandma Ye and Grandma Lan who unintentionally appeared before the video cut off were laughing.

His gaze swiped across the pitch-dark room.

And looked again at the dialog box with Lin Kerou’s "too late tonight."

Xiao Bao glanced at the pink gift box on the shelf, got up, and left the room without looking back.

As he ran into the main house, he saw the driver approaching him.

Big hand holding little hand, they went straight out the door, the car headed to the Ye Mansion.

Eating and drinking.

Talking and laughing.

The excitement ended close to 10 o’clock.

Upon hearing Ye Li talk about finding Qin Chu and having to get up early for the studio tomorrow, Li Xueqing did not insist, only reminded Fu Yanci to drive carefully and warmly invited Xiao Bao to stay.

Seeing him shake his head, Li Xueqing didn’t push, smiling as she sent him to the car.

The car left the villa area; Ye Li poked Xiao Bao’s cheek, "Tonight you’re under your little uncle’s care! ... After tomorrow, the day after tomorrow will be the weekend, let’s go swimming. Ok?"

As if he’d accepted the arrangement of Ye Li not being home and spending time alone with his little uncle, Xiao Bao obediently nodded.

Ye Li turned back, meeting Fu Yanci’s resentful gaze, "Ah Li, does it have to be tonight?"

Knowing she and Qin Chu are good friends, but is it necessary to meet right upon returning?

"Fu Yanci, you’re getting more and more petty."

Ye Li laughed, "Would you even get jealous of Chu Chu?"

Fu Yanci sighed.

Ten minutes later, the Maybach stopped below Qin Chu’s apartment building.

Ye Li waved and went up with her bag.

After opening the door, there was a faint scent of alcohol in the air.

The living room was relatively tidy except for the coffee table with a pile of empty beer cans.

Qin Chu wasn’t there.

Looking at the time, Qin Chu should be at the car park at this hour?

Ye Li dialed a call over.
