Chapter 1005: Mysterious Young Master
Xia Yu turned around and shook his head. “I don’t know him. Sister, he said he was here to look for you.”
Xia Wanyuan looked out the door and met a pair of blue eyes that were as transparent as glass.
Xia Wanyuan had a photographic memory. Seeing these eyes, she recalled the little boy she had met at the church entrance when she participated in the music competition last year. After all, these eyes were too recognizable.
“You’re so difficult to find.” The hair on the boy’s forehead was slightly curled and golden. His blue eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.
“Why are you looking for me?” Although Xia Wanyuan recognized him, she did not know why this little boy had come to look for her.
The little boy walked into the house. The person behind him wanted to follow, but he waved his hand to stop them.
He took two steps and stopped. He looked at Xia Yu. “I want to talk to her. Go down.”
“…” Xia Yu was so angry that he laughed. Where did this brat learn to sound so annoying and order people so matter-of-factly?
Xia Wanyuan nodded at Xia Yu comfortingly. “It’s nothing. Go back to your room and clean up first. We’ll eat later.”
Since Xia Wanyuan had spoken, Xia Yu could only leave the room, but he did not dare to go far. He stood at the door and glared at the bodyguards.
“Where are you going to eat?” The little boy walked in and sat on the sofa, his back straight.
“Why? You want to come with me too?” Xia Wanyuan picked up the teacup at the side. She had not drunk a mouthful of water since the airport. She was a little thirsty.
“Of course. You’re my wife. I want to eat with you.” There was no hint of a joke in the little boy’s blue eyes. He was very serious.
“Ahem.” Xia Wanyuan choked on her water. She swallowed the water and did not know whether to laugh or cry. “How old are you?”
The boy frowned slightly. His exquisite doll-like face had a maturity that did not match his age. “No matter how old I am, it doesn’t stop you from being my wife.”
“Why did you choose me?” Xia Wanyuan was a little amused by his serious expression. “We’ve only met twice, right? This is the second time.”
The little boy glanced at her as if he found her talkative. “Because you’re not annoying and you’re beautiful.”
Xia Wanyuan could not help but laugh. “But I’m already married. You’re late, little friend.”
The boy frowned. “Can’t you get a divorce?”
Xia Wanyuan shook her head. “No.”
The little boy stood up proudly and glanced at Xia Wanyuan with his blue glass-like eyes. “Hmph.”
Xia Wanyuan was amused by his gaze. She even wanted to reach out and touch the little boy’s curly hair. “What’s your name, little friend?”
“You’re not my wife, so you don’t have the right to call me by my name. I wanted to invite you to my house for lunch, but now you don’t have the right.” With that, the little boy left angrily.
Xia Wanyuan watched him come and go inexplicably.
Xia Yu entered. “Sister, who is this little boy? He’s young, but he’s quite arrogant.”
Xia Wanyuan shook her head. “He won’t tell me his name.”
The boy left the hotel angrily. A group of bodyguards followed behind him and protected him tightly.
“Manda, what are you looking at?” Lady York and Manda were in the car, preparing to head to the charity gala tonight. She was talking to Manda when Manda suddenly fell silent and was looking straight out the window.
“I think I saw the Cape family’s car just now.” She kept looking out of the window, but the convoy had already disappeared from her sight.
“The Cape family’s tentacles extend to the various royal families in Continent O. It’s not strange to see the Cape family’s car here.” Madam York was not surprised.
The foundation of the Cape family was far from what their York family could compare to. This was a family that had ruled the various royal families in Continent O since the Middle Ages. They had almost dominated the main economic system in Continent O.
“No.” Manda had lived in France for a long time and knew more about the Cape family than Mrs. York. “I saw a young man flash past. That’s very likely the young master of the Cape family.”
“Young Master?” This time, even Lady York was a little surprised. “What is he doing here?”
“I don’t know.” Manda shook her head, suddenly feeling that it was useless to care about this. “Did you just say that Xia Wanyuan came to France?”
“You’re even the director of Camellia. Don’t you care about this design competition?” Speaking of Xia Wanyuan, Madam York was very unhappy. “I really didn’t expect my nephew to really marry her. My brother is really muddle-headed.”
She had abandoned such a noble granddaughter-in-law like Li Qingxue and married such a rude woman. He really did not have any foresight.
“I’ve been busy recently.” Manda patted Mrs. York’s hand. “Don’t worry, it’s impossible for the Chinese to interfere in a place like France. It’s a fool’s dream for that Xia Wanyuan to win this competition.”
“Of course I believe you.” Lady York smiled and returned Manda’s grip.
Xia Wanyuan and Xia Yu returned after lunch. Xia Wanyuan had just lain on the bed and was about to take a nap when Jun Shiling called.
Xia Wanyuan picked up the phone and tucked her hair behind her ear. “It’s five in the morning in Beijing. CEO Jun, why are you up so early? Are you checking on me?”
It was obvious that Jun Shiling had just woken up. His voice was still filled with sleepiness. “Have you eaten?”
“Mm, I’ve eaten. I tried the signature foie gras and steak here. It’s not bad.” Xia Wanyuan did not eat Western food much and felt that it was not bad to eat it occasionally.
“Then take a nap.”
“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan nodded, suddenly feeling that something was wrong. “Aren’t you at the manor?”
On the phone, Jun Shiling’s voice sounded like he was in an empty house. It sounded a little echoing.
“Mm.” Jun Shiling looked up at the command screen in front of him. “I’m doing something in the southwest now. When you come back, I’ll be back too.”
“Oh.” Xia Wanyuan clicked her tongue. “You left as soon as I did. CEO Jun, you’re the one who should be on duty, right?”
Jun Shiling chuckled. “Stop fooling around. You talk nonsense all day. Do I have time to think about others? Go to sleep.”
“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan felt sleepy and yawned. “Bye.”
“Bye.” Jun Shiling smiled and hung up.
However, in the blink of an eye, the coldness returned to him.
“Sir.” The subordinate trembled. “The deployment orders have been sent to the various military regions and are being implemented according to the plan.”
Jun Shiling strode out of the command room. “Connect to the bases in the southwest and have a meeting online.”
