Su Shoudao, who was in a complicated mood, hesitated and sat down opposite He Yingxiu.
When He Yingxiu saw him coming, he smiled slightly and asked him, “How did you sleep?”
“Quite well.” Su Shoudao answered, looked out of the window and then at He Yingxiu, asking her, “Why didn’t you go inside to rest?”
He Yingxiu was slightly dismayed, the interior of this Gulfstream aircraft had only been converted into a bedroom, and although Su Shoudao had said at the beginning that the two of them could rest together in the bedroom, she still felt it was a little inappropriate.
Lest she misunderstood, Su Shoudao had made a point of stressing at the time that he meant nothing else but that it was a long journey and that the two of them could share the bedroom’s king-size bed equally so that they could both get rest on the road as well.
He Yingxiu did not deny it, but simply told Su Shoudao to rest first, but she herself sat outside for more than ten hours.
When she heard Su Shoudao ask, He Yingxiu said, somewhat unnaturally, “I’m a martial arts practitioner, so I’m not tired, and I don’t want to disturb your rest, so I’ll simply look at the scenery outside.”
Su Shoudao muttered, “Flying all the way from night to night, how can there be any scenery to see.”
He Yingxiu smiled unnaturally, then deliberately changed the subject and muttered, “I don’t know what Mr. Ye suddenly wants us to go to America for, I asked Ruo Li, but she didn’t tell me explicitly, she only said that there might be something big and good and asked me to go there with you as soon as possible.”
Su Shoudao muttered with some resentment, “Something related to Ye Chen, what can be good, from the day I knew about him, I have never met anything good ……”
He Yingxiu looked at him and said seriously, “Eldest Young Master, you still need to adjust your attitude towards Mr. Ye, with the feud between the Su family and Ye Changye back then, as well as what the old master he did earlier when he killed up Ye Lingshan with Wan Breaking Army, it was already very kind of Mr. Ye to spare the Su family.”
To Su Shoudao, He Yingxiu privately maintained the title she had used at the time, even though the He family was no longer attached to the Su family and even though Su Shoudao had become the subject of her house arrest, she still referred to him as Young Master.
To He Yingxiu, this title was a sign of respect for Su Shoudao, but to Su Shoudao, this title was somewhat distant.
However, he also knew that what He Yingxiu said was true. In disputes between powerful families, once one of them was moved to kill, it was bound to be a matter of death and life.
At this point, He Yingxiu added, “Young master, don’t forget that Mr. Ye not only spared the Su family, he also saved the lives of the young master, the young miss, and Ruo Li in Japan, if not for him, you might have been extinct.”
Su Shoudao’s expression flinched, then he sighed and said from the bottom of his heart, “You’re right, I’m actually quite grateful to Ye Chen in my heart, I’m just being a bit tough-talking in front of you, after all, you’re no outsider, if I really met Ye Chen, I’d definitely be polite.”
Hearing him say that he was not an outsider, He Yingxiu could not help but feel a little touch in her heart.
During this period of time, she could also see the gradual change in Su Shoudao’s attitude towards herself, and some times she could even feel some other kind of tenderness.
But she had never dared to give any response. Apart from her inferiority complex, she also felt that Su Shoudao was now in a situation where he was at a low point in his life, and it was easy for a man in such a situation to lower his heart and feel good about people and things he originally despised.
However, once this kind of man’s life starts to hit bottom, his heart temper will also rise as his situation rises, and by then, those people and things that originally attracted him at the trough will definitely repel or even disgust him in his heart.
