Chapter 435 Lost to Time

The black suit watched them leave silently without any movement.

There is still a long way to go from the lawn to the living room in the castle.On the way, there were people passing by from time to time, the expressions on their faces were all cold and calm, and they did not see the panic and uneasiness of the death of a high-ranking member of the clan.

All the way to the inner room of the castle, a maid in black hurried over and whispered something in Thomas' ear.

Thomas listened, nodded, and waved again, the maid bowed slightly and quickly retreated.

Xie Qinghuan is now in the tiger's den, but she is not so defensive. She only raised her eyebrows when Thomas turned to her, and asked calmly, "What?"

"Miss, the owner of the house is currently handling official business in the study, please go take a shower and change clothes first, dinner is ready." Thomas replied.

"Okay." Xie Qinghuan didn't refuse, she really should change clothes, "I'm sorry."

"Miss is too polite, this is your home, and this subordinate should serve you." Thomas lowered his head again, took two steps away from her, and immediately came a black-clothed maid, who bowed to Xie Qinghuan , "Miss, this way please."

Xie Qinghuan nodded casually, her eyes quickly swept over the arrangement in front of her.

Gray's study is on the second floor, and the room for her is on the third floor.

Xie Qinghuan has also seen extreme wealth in Dayong, but Dayong's scenery and craftsmanship are very different from those in Europe, so Xie Qinghuan stood in the room Gray prepared for her, looking at the extravagant ostentation compared to the emperor's palace. I was shocked.

Douglas's glory is closely related to this wealth, and the current besieged situation is also because of this wealth-without interests, how can we fight?

The maid adjusted the water temperature, put the water in the bathtub with massage function, and took out the clothes she had prepared early in the morning from the closet. Next, she was going to help Xie Qinghuan undress, but Xie Qinghuan stopped her immediately and sent her out of the room. Only then can I take a bath with peace of mind.

Xie Qinghuan has been busy for five full days, and she is still in danger all the time. Her spirit is tense. At this moment, she is caressed by the warm water. As soon as she relaxes, she immediately feels that every bone and muscle in her body is clamoring for exhaustion. Go to sleep immediately.

After she finished taking a bath, changed her clothes, and suppressed all the tiredness on her face.

Tapping her fingertips on the banister of the stairs, the slow movement when she went downstairs also showed a bit of elegance. When there were still a few steps away from the ground, with a long look, she saw Gray sitting at the dining table, Wait quietly.

Sensing her coming, he raised his eyelids, stared fixedly at her slightly haggard face that looked wet after taking a bath, and smiled quietly: "Long time no see."

Dear little sister--

my wife.

Xie Qinghuan paused slightly, looked up, and saw that Gray was a little thinner than the last time I saw him, but there was not much change in other aspects, as if there was a tumor in his brain and Margaret's death. affect him.

Xie Qinghuan's eyes narrowed slightly. Such a person, with few emotions and desires, probably has nothing to hurt him except death.

Looking at Gray, Xie Qinghuan couldn't help thinking of Lu Ziyun. Before meeting her, was Lu Ziyun like this, with no weaknesses or weaknesses.

But what is the fun in living without emotion?Xie Qinghuan thought so, and the tiredness between her brows and eyes showed a bit of tenderness, and she replied with a sigh: "Long time no see."

There was a faint smile on the corner of Gray's lips: "Come and sit."

Xie Qinghuan walked over unhurriedly and sat down on Gray's left.

Thomas, who was standing behind Gray, raised his hand slightly when he saw this, and immediately a maid came over with dinner—first, a bowl of soup.

"Try it, the chef is specialized in making medicinal food, and he has a lot of experience in health preservation." Gray's tone was a bit concerned, but it didn't make people feel overly attentive. Instead, it seemed like an ordinary brother caring about his sister.

Xie Qinghuan smiled slightly. In fact, she still didn't feel hungry at the moment, but she still picked up the spoon and put the soup into her mouth.

Gray turned a blind eye to the steak placed in front of him, and only stared at Xie Qinghuan with a smile: "How does it taste?"

Xie Qinghuan nodded and praised sincerely: "It's very delicious."

Gray asked again: "Is it to your liking?"

In fact, Xie Qinghuan didn't care much about eating, so she nodded again when she heard the words, and replied softly: "Yes."

Gray was satisfied, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just watched Xie Qinghuan bury his head in the soup with great interest, and his own steak was not touched much.

After finishing the soup, I served half a bowl of rice and a few freshly fried seasonal side dishes. It seemed that they were all dishes that Huaguo would serve at this time, and they were naturally not born.The rice grains are plump and more lustrous under the light, watching people move their index fingers.

Xie Qinghuan was not hungry at first, but after drinking another bowl of soup, her eating speed slowed down.

After Thomas also retreated, only Gray and Xie Qinghuan were left in the huge restaurant.Neither of them spoke, but the atmosphere was not rigid.

In fact, Gray didn't have much appetite either. He had a tumor in his brain, and it was in such a dangerous position. Even if it didn't have a severe impact, after all, it was gradually oppressing the nerves, and the resulting symptoms would become more and more.

As a person who never wronged himself, Gray reluctantly took two bites, then put down the knife and fork, propped his chin with one hand, and looked at Xie Qinghuan carefully.

After all, they haven't seen each other for a long time.No, it should be said that they hadn't met a few times before.Because of this, Gray was very jealous of Xiao Langyue who had been by Xie Qinghuan's side since childhood.

Regarding Lu Ziyun, Gray didn't have the emotion that he was bound to kill him.After all, Lu Ziyun didn't know Xie Qinghuan for long, he was just a man who happened to be worthy of her, and he confessed his love first.

Gray's eyes are very focused, neither cruel nor crazy, it can be called affectionate.Xie Qinghuan ate quietly, but the back of her neck felt chilly.

There must be a reason why the Douglas family can exist for so long without really declining.As for the rules that have been handed down to this day, Xie Qinghuan will not comment, but it does not mean that she can accept it.

Xie Qinghuan put down her chopsticks, took the napkin she put aside and wiped her mouth.

Gray said slowly: "You have been eating irregularly for the past few days, and now it's night again, so eat less to avoid stomach upset."

"Thank you for your concern." Xie Qinghuan sighed inwardly. If someone saw Gray, who was so earnest, his jaw would drop to the ground in shock.

Gray smiled: "You are also tired these days, go to bed early today."

"En." Xie Qinghuan knew that he would not talk to her tonight, so she stood up.Seeing this, the maid came over and took her to the room. Xie Qinghuan went back to the room to wash up, only to find that there was a charger and bedtime readings carefully prepared by the bedside - her mobile phone was charging, but not turned on.
