Chapter 775: Everything Has Changed
Like himself, he started living a healthy lifestyle before he had even turned forty, all in the efforts of spending his money comfortably for the rest of his life. Also, he was making such a conscious effort, an old granny who was in her twilight years was still doing things herself, that’s quite a rare sight.
After seeing them out of the room, Hou Zi turned around and noticed the young woman that the Xia clan’s young master was fancy of looked quite perplexed. She stared at him as if recalling a memory, Hou Zi couldn’t help but c*** his brows.
Is she staring at him to recall a memory? This reaction is quite bedazzling.
“Alright, young lady, I’ll have my staff get you a new room, this room isn’t clean anymore. I’m sure you won’t feel comfortable staying here.” Hou Zi was uninterested in what the young lady was recollecting while staring at him; he was sure he doesn’t know who this beautiful young lady was; neither does he think he has such an old daughter wandering outside.
Ye Jian1 regained her senses while listening to him speaking lazily, and she smiled: “There’s no need, as long as sir is here, I doubt they’ll be that bold to come back.”
She didn’t call him ‘Brother Zi’ in vain, she could immediately notice how the complexion of Old Granny Ye’s face changed, she wasn’t able to maintain her amiable look on her wrinkled face and it crumbled away.
The face of the Buddha in public, the heart of a viper in private, Old Granny Ye was always like that, and she still is.
“As long as you don’t mind, if anything, you can contact me directly.” When the decision of others doesn’t conflict with his interests, Hou Zi always approved of it, hearing that, he beamed a smile: “Young lady, you have some skills, a couple of thugs won’t be proper opponents for you.”
“But from what I see, that old granny’s already that old and still able to rack up a storm, from the looks of it, she’s an old granny that’s difficult to deal with. Once people grow old, they’ll do one of two things, the older they get, the calmer they become; the other type is, the older they get, the prettier they get. From what I can see, that old granny belongs to the latter, young lady, best, be careful when you go out alone.”
He’s known Yi Wei for so long, it’s so rare for her to ask him for a favor, but she asked him to take care of the girl, whom Xia clan’s Young Master’s was fancying, on her behalf. Since he had already agreed to it, he must definitely act like it, giving the young lady some advice was just something he could do by moving his mouth.
From what she heard about Hou Zi from Big Boss, he was a very ruthless person and not a nosy person. However, the Hou Zi, in front of her, doesn’t seem like a selfish person. At the very least, he was quite caring when it concerned certain people.
For example, Xia Jinyuan2, and the VIP cardholder — Miss Xia, the reason he stepped forward today and helped her out, must be because he was doing it on behalf of the two of them.
With a smile and being polite, she spoke with a calm tone without trying to act close: “Thank you, sir, for your reminder, I will keep that in mind.”
“Enjoy your meal. Goodbye.” Though she was still just a young lady, Hou Zi was quite the gentleman. With a hint of pride that he had fostered in his earlier days, he left with his men with elegant footsteps.
When he walked to the doorframe, Ye Jian who was seeing him out noticed he stopped, he turned around and asked with a smile on his lips, “You know who I am?”
“Nope, I don’t.” Ye Jian’s heart clenched gently, and Third Master Hou has such keen senses! He must’ve noticed her slightly dazed look, that’s why he asked such a sudden question.
Recalling the memory about the person whom she hadn’t found for the last few years of her life had now suddenly appeared, thinking about it, she still found it hard to believe.
Because, since she started being in contact with Xia Jinyuan, a lot of things have changed, stuff that was difficult for her to accomplish in the past were solved so quickly now. And some people, though they were hard to get in contact with, in this life, they were right in front of her.
Everything had finally changed; life was filled with challenges; it was also filled with lots of uncertainty.
