339: Chapter 338: Reunion 339: Chapter 338: Reunion “It seems the location choice wasn’t bad.”
Seeing the crowd outside getting larger, Xu Niannian said with a smile as she ca back from the window, pouring herself a glass of water to drink.
Hu Yue stood by the windowsill, and after a glance to the side, she thought, how troubling with so many people around.
The butler hurried towards the shop; before he even got close, he spotted Hu Yue peeking out from the window across the street.
The old butler paused, stopping in his tracks, and Hu Yue noticed him staring at her.
She frowned deeply, what was this old man staring at her for?
Weird, yet another one who’s not proper.
Not even blinking when he sees a pretty girl.
Hu Yue, who had no idea what politeness was, glared at the butler and, with a swoosh, shut the window.
The noise from her closing the window was so loud that it caught the attention of Xu Niannian and Xu Sisi.
Both turned their heads simultaneously, with Xu Niannian asking in puzzlent, “What’s wrong?”
Hu Yue, with a frown and a very serious expression, replied, “Nothing, just an improper old fool.”
Xu Niannian: “…”
Xu Sisi: “…”
Having experienced Hu Yue’s interpretation of the term “improper,” Xu Niannian could only shake her head helplessly.
Probably soone outside had given her an extra look.
Xu Niannian didn’t dwell on the issue.
Zuo Qing hurried back, seeing the butler heading the other way, she curiously grabbed him: “Uncle Guan, did you see that girl?”
The butler let out a sigh and asked Zuo Qing, “Miss Qingqing, are you talking about that girl who was leaning out of the window?”
Zuo Qing nodded excitedly: “Yes, that’s her, a very beautiful girl.
Is she the one who bumped into that day?”
Since Zuo Qing had never seen what Xu Wentian looked like when he was young and he had left no photos,
she had no idea what the girl who greatly resembled Xu Wentian looked like.
All she knew was what the old butler said about a very beautiful girl.
That’s why when she saw the pretty girl, she suddenly wondered if it could be the sa girl that had bumped into her.
The butler shook his head at her, sighing with resignation: “It’s not her.”
“Not her?” Zuo Qing was shocked: “But that girl was really pretty, just like Uncle Guan described, a very, very beautiful girl.”
Zuo Qing even thought that perhaps the old butler had mistaken the person.
Hu Yue indeed was very beautiful.
The old butler sighed again, “She is beautiful, but not the girl who looks a lot like the master.”
Hearing this, Zuo Qing lowered her head in disappointnt.
Was it just excitent for nothing?
“Let’s go back, Miss Qingqing.
It seems this is all about fate,” said the butler.
The butler felt quite downhearted himself: “We’ve searched so long without finding her; there’s nothing we can do.
Miss, you should not be so disappointed; what’s ant to co will eventually co.
Let’s just leave it to fate.”
Lately, the master had been looking at that empty photo album more and more frequently.
The butler saw it and genuinely felt sorry for the old master.
Zuo Qing was aware that what the butler said was true.
She cast a longing look before she left.
anwhile, Jin Yu and Jin Ruiyang finally arrived in the capital city at a little past three in the afternoon.
As soon as they got off the car, Jin Yu went straight to the hotel to look for soone.
Jin Ruiyang, on the other hand, went back ho to the Jin Family first.
Since Xu Niannian didn’t go to look for Wu Lan nor to the Jin Family, she must be staying at a hotel or guesthouse.
Jin Yu knew Xu Niannian didn’t like to trouble others, and there was another thing; his wife was very particular.
Except in ergency situations where she needed a place to stay and would be less picky.
Once the critical mont had passed, they would naturally seek out a comfortable environnt to stay in, and by eliminating that requirent, a large number of small hotels could be ruled out.
In this era, even in the capital, there aren’t many comfortable hotels and hostels.
Jin Yu thodically searched each one.
Upon arrival, he would ask about soone matching Xu Niannian’s appearance, inquiring if there were a guest like that.
Jin Yu rembered Yang Cuihua ntioning that Xu Sisi had co along as well.
That gave him an additional feature to look for.
Two young girls, one very white, the other very dark.
Fortunately, his wife was beautiful enough that as soon as he described her, anyone who had seen her would surely rember.
After searching three or four places, he finally got a definite answer at the fifth.
The young man at the front desk said with a smile, “Are you talking about the woman with really long hair, down to her waist, and very beautiful?
She’s quite fair and beautiful.”
As the front desk attendant spoke about the great beauty he saw every day, his eyes lit up.
Jin Yu frowned, “Yes, can you tell where she’s staying?”
The attendant’s face changed, “I can’t tell you that, it’s the guest’s privacy.”
Jin Yu simply took out his ID and laid it on the counter, “That’s my wife; her na is Xu Niannian.”
Upon seeing Jin Yu’s ID, the attendant’s expression shifted instantly.
Understanding Jin Yu’s status, the attendant quickly told him which room Xu Niannian was in.
Learning Xu Niannian’s exact location, Jin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
He had found his wife.
Without another word, Jin Yu went straight to the room number the attendant had ntioned and knocked on the door.
At that mont, Xu Niannian was applying a face mask on Xu Sisi, her homade milk and pearl powder mask.
The pearl powder had been purchased at a pharmacy; she hadn’t expected to actually find it for sale.
Hu Yue was quite puzzled as she watched Xu Niannian; her patron was too strange, fiddling with all sorts of odd things every day.
Could that sticky substance really whiten the face when applied?
Indeed, the world of the wealthy was beyond her imagination.
Upon hearing the knock, Xu Niannian was startled.
Just as Hu Yue was about to go open the door, Jin Yu’s voice ca through from the outside, “Wife, it’s .”
Startled by Jin Yu’s voice, Xu Niannian was both shocked and overwheld by the surprise.
Without thinking too much, she dropped the face mask bowl and ran to open the door like the wind.
She even joyfully called out Jin Yu’s na.
“Jin Yu…”
Her voice was coy and soft, carrying the whining tone of a young woman.
Poor Xu Sisi, who suddenly found herself covered in face mask…
She was dood; her elder sister had forgotten there was a person lying on the bed the mont she saw her brother-in-law.
It had been a long ti since Xu Niannian had seen Jin Yu, and knowing he was outside, she excitedly opened the door and rushed into his embrace.
With the beauty in his arms, Jin Yu’s unsettled heart gradually cald down.
He was truly worried sothing might have happened to her.
Right now, Jin Yu only had eyes for Xu Niannian and didn’t even notice there were others in the room as he embraced her and entered.
He lowered his head to kiss her when a terrified scream ca from behind, “Ah, I’m going to get a stye!”
Xu Sisi hurriedly covered her eyes, realizing she had pearl powder on her eyelids, now sared on her hand.
Hu Yue leaned calmly against the wall with her eyes closed.
Only then did Xu Niannian rember Xu Sisi and Hu Yue were still in the room, and her face flushed with embarrassnt as she quickly pushed Jin Yu away.
“Cough cough…
that…” She tried awkwardly to explain, only to realize it was better not to, and could only laugh sheepishly.
Jin Yu, with his thick skin, didn’t think it was a big deal, but he refrained from doing anything else to Xu Niannian.
