Xiao Yu could hear the abnormality in Ye Yanxi's voice and was about to say something else, but then his eyes lit up with a hint of ridicule.

"What's the matter with you?"

When Xiao Yu asked this question, Ye Yan Xi suddenly became nervous. Her hand was full of sweat, and her hand holding her phone was a little slippery. She almost couldn't hold her phone, and it took a long time before she managed to stammer, "No …" "It's nothing."

"Why do I feel like you're very nervous?" Xiao Yu deliberately asked in a serious tone, "Tell me, what happened over there?"

"No, nothing happened." Ye Yan Xi tried her best to reply with a casual tone, she paused for a moment and said, "Stop making wild guesses, what can happen to me?"

"Then where are you now?"

"Didn't you just say that I'm back?"

Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, "Are you really at home? Where else did you go?"

"Why would I go out so late at night?" Ye Yan Xi smiled as gently as she could.

"Since you were at home and nothing happened, why were you so nervous? "It can't be …" Xiao Yu purposefully said half of the sentence in a long tone. Ye Yan Xi, who was holding the phone, could feel that Xiao Yu was squinting his eyes. He didn't know what to do, so his heart couldn't help but thump loudly, "Did you do something shameful?"

"How could that be?" Ye Yanxi raised her voice to refute, as if her tail was stepped on.

"Your voice has already told me everything. Speak up, and be honest with me." Xiao Yu couldn't help but ask patiently: "What did you do wrong?"

Ye Yan Xi let out a soft humph and placed the book on the table. Her eyes swept across the pages, and she saw that the photo was stuck between the pages.

After hesitating for a while, Ye Yan Xi decided not to ask Xiao Yu about this, at least for now was not the right time.

"Why don't you think you did something wrong?" Ye Yanxi didn't want to continue discussing this topic, so she changed the topic. Listening to Xiao Yu's words, it seemed as if it was very quiet.

"Your party over there has ended?"

"Yeah, I was just about to head back."

"Oh."

The phone went silent for a moment. Xiao Yu sat in the car and looked at the barbecued food on the street outside the window. His eyebrows couldn't help but furrow as he asked, "What else do you want to eat?"

"What is it?"

Xiao Yu's voice seemed to carry a hint of reluctance as he calmly said, "There seems to be a barbeque stall outside."

If it was before, when Xiao Yu asked this question, Ye Yanxi would definitely ask him to bring back some grilled fish or something like that, even if he despised her.

But now, because of what had happened earlier, she had suddenly lost all interest.

"No need, Dad and I are having dinner outside. We've had our fill, and we don't want anything to eat at this time."

This was just the right time. Ye Yan Xi didn't want to eat it, so he didn't bother to go to the barbecue stall and stood there. He then picked up a pile of greasy barbecue meat and said, "Okay, you wait at home obediently. I'll be there shortly."

"Wait..." Ye Yan Xi was still a bit unwilling to accept this. He wanted to ask Xiao Yu about that photo, but hesitated for a long time before saying anything.

Xiao Yu nodded and then asked, "Is there something else?"

After being asked in such a serious manner, Ye Yanxi immediately lost her courage. In the end, she could only unwillingly say, "It's okay, you have to be careful on the way."

After hanging up, Xiao Yu withdrew his gaze from outside the window. Ye Yanxi had been very strange tonight, and every time he tried to cover it up, he would say that he was fine.

Now that she was at home, there shouldn't be any problems. Anyway, she felt that something was very wrong.

Lifting his head, Xiao Yu instructed Xu Bei to drive the car.

In the darkness of the night, the black banquets blended into the rolling traffic.

The street lights flickered, reflecting Xiao Yu's handsome and icy face. Xu Bei, who was in the driver's seat, occasionally glanced at Xiao Yu from the rearview mirror.

That kind of situation lasted for more than ten minutes.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu raised his head. His black pupils were like bottomless chasm as they stared fixedly at Xu Bei's eyes in the rearview mirror.

Just as he was about to raise his head to look at Xiao Yu, he was caught off guard and met Xiao Yu's icy gaze. When he was about to raise his head to look at Xiao Yu, he was caught off guard and met Xiao Yu's cold gaze.

"Xu Bei, do you have something to say?" Xiao Yu lazily spoke, his voice tinged with a trace of exhaustion.

Even so, Xu Bei still felt a cold aura coming from behind him. It was like a typhoon had passed, causing him to shiver.

He shook it a little and immediately pulled away with a smile. "No …" "No."

"If you have something to say, just say it." Xiao Yu's voice was a bit lower and his tone was commanding.

Well, that's what you asked me to say.

So Xu Bei took a moment to muster up his courage and said: "CEO, you know … "What day is tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?" Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, "What day?"

This was also within Xu Bei's expectations.

"CEO, look at the street." Xu Bei glanced outside the window, indicating that Xiao Yu should take a look. At this time, they just happened to pass by a shopping mall. In front of a building that was filled with tall buildings, there were huge advertisements, all related to Valentine's Day.

Xiao Yu glanced outside the window and saw the colorful advertisements.

"Tomorrow at midnight." Xiao Yu's tone was as indifferent as ever, as if it didn't matter to him. "Is this very special?"

Now that things have come to this point, you're a famous person in the market, the CEO of the Xiao Group. What do you mean? Xu Bei had the urge to knock on Xiao Yu's head to find out what he was thinking.

However, it was just a thought. He wasn't that bold yet.

Thus, Xu Bei patiently continued to remind him, "CEO, the Double Seventh Festival is Valentine's Day."

Xiao Yu vaguely agreed. After pondering for a while, he said, "Although this holiday is coming, but it's not a official holiday, so we still have to go to work as usual."

"..." Xu Bei felt helpless and wanted to say that this was not a holiday issue, "CEO, this has nothing to do with a holiday."

"The corporation doesn't need to do the festival, right?"

CEO, can you think of anything else besides the company? Xu Bei finally didn't want to hang up. The facts proved that if he kept talking, he was afraid that it would involve all kinds of people's livelihood issues, so he simply said, "CEO, the Double Seventh Festival is a traditional Chinese holiday. We have to spend this day with lovers."

"So?"

Xu Bei resisted the urge to retort and raised his voice a little, "Actually, Miss Ye wants to spend Valentine's Day with you."

Xiao Yu pretended to be suddenly enlightened and smiled, "What you want to say is this, but I'm with her every day."

"On Valentine's Day, all women wish their loved ones could accompany them to watch movies or something. It would be even better if there was a romantic dinner, and all the men on this day would send their beloved women roses. If Miss Ye could receive the flowers, she would be very happy."

Seeing that Xiao Yu seemed to be silent, Xu Bei added, "Although you are with Miss Ye every day, but tomorrow is Valentine's Day. This is a special day, so women should be hoping to have a romantic time together."

Xiao Yu didn't say anything and seemed to be thinking.

He had never felt that Valentine's Day was anything special. It was just a day, so there was no need for special treatment. Furthermore, they were together every day, so there was no need to prove anything on Valentine's Day, right?

Xiao Yu didn't quite understand.

Xu Bei looked at him and thought to himself that he had finished speaking. He saw that Xiao Yu didn't seem to feel anything, so he didn't know whether he had heard or not.

He was trying to help Xiao Yu come up with some ideas!

Today, when sending Ye Yanxi back home, when the topic of Valentine's Day was brought up, Ye Yanxi's face clearly showed that she cared a lot about it. That envious expression on her face was also because she wanted to spend Valentine's Day with Xiao Yu.

However, Xiao Yu seemed to be a bit stubborn, so he could only say this.

As for his inability to gain enlightenment, it could only be determined by the luck of the two of them.

Xiao Yu returned to the Green Jade Bay. When he opened the door, he discovered that the living room was pitch black. Why hadn't Ye Yan come back yet? He changed his shoes and entered the room. Only when he saw the lights on on on the second floor did he relax a little.

Today, there was something wrong with Ye Yan Xi. He thought that she hadn't come back yet.

As he thought about this, he took off his suit jacket and walked to the second floor.

When he arrived at the master bedroom, he didn't see Ye Yanxi's figure as he had expected.

Why isn't he in the master bedroom? Xiao Yu hung the coat on the hanger and walked towards the next bedroom. The door was covered, so it wasn't closed. It was easily opened.

At the small table, Ye Yan Xi was seriously reading a book with her head down.

However, when he walked closer and took a look, he realized that she wasn't serious at all. She even took the book in reverse, but it was still difficult for her to read it so attentively.

After walking over, he straightened the book board in her hands and passed it back to her.

"Since you've already gotten the book in reverse, it will be difficult for you to continue reading."

In the quiet room, Ye Yan Xi suddenly heard Xiao Yu's low and hoarse voice that caused his to recover from his thoughts.

When he raised his head to take a look, he discovered that Xiao Yu had returned some time ago, and the book in his hands was indeed the book he had just corrected.

Thus, she had been staring blankly at the book in her hands.

In the meantime, her mind couldn't help but recall the precious photo in Xiao Yu's study. Who was the girl in the photo?

He turned it over and over and his heart felt like it was being frying in a pan of oil. He felt uneasy, so he pretended to take out a book, but he didn't even notice when he took it back.
