After saying this, Christina Baker when he saw Alfred Jandrell holding a copy of the "Tao Te Ching", lowering his eyebrows and thinking hard, with a tangled look on his face.

She had naturally heard about Young Master Jiang studying behind closed doors, but because this scene had been repeated so many times before, she had long lost its novelty and had no interest in it.

Unexpectedly, Young Master Jiang has really become studious, but looking at it like this, he might not even be able to read all the words in the book, right?

Alfred Jandrell glanced sideways at Christina Baker. She had not changed much. She was still wearing the same pair of rigid black-rimmed glasses. The only difference was that the color of the uniform had changed. Alfred Jandrell wondered how much she had bought. Put on the exact same clothes.

Tapping the book with a finger, Alfred Jandrell asked: "Secretary Zhao, how many versions of this Tao Te Ching are there in the world?"

"I don't know."Christina Baker said coldly, but he began to murmur in his heart. Could it be that Young Master Jiang wanted to take back all the unique books in the world in exchange for money?

"Don't know?"Alfred Jandrell frowned slightly and said, "How could you not know?"

"I really don't know."Christina Baker had to say. He didn't know what Mr. Jiang was so nervous about.

"Then help me look for it."Alfred Jandrell muttered.

The book "Tao Te Ching" has been widely circulated in the world, but the deleted version has long lost its original flavor. Apart from some functions of teaching people principles, it has long lost its original role.

He could feel how magnificent and profound the original version of this book was. It would be a great pity if it were lost.

"I'm afraid it's a bit troublesome."Christina Baker said.

"Oh?"Alfred Jandrell was a little confused.

"Master, all your bank cards have been frozen by the old man's order."Christina Baker said coldly.

Alfred Jandrell smiled bitterly, then shook his head: "Forget it."

He does not necessarily need to collect the original version of this book, because even if it is the original version, it is not of much use to him. The only use is to gain insight into the origin of the world through this book. Just a change. Of course, he didn't know that his bad deeds had long been ingrained in Christina Baker mind. Even if Christina Baker could find the only copies that existed in the world, he would never do it.

Only then did he ask: "Who did you say was coming?"

"Ms. Ye Qingxuan,"Christina Baker said.

"Ye Qingxuan?"Alfred Jandrell smiled, thinking of the beautiful young girl on the horseback at the Flower Field Racecourse, and said casually: "No, I'm not free."

He said casually, picked up the coffee cup at hand, took a sip of coffee, opened the Tao Te Ching, and read it carefully.

"Huh?"Christina Baker was startled. She knew better than anyone else that Alfred Jandrell had confessed to Ye Qingxuan thirty-two times in a row, and she also knew what Alfred Jandrell attitude towards Ye Qingxuan was.

If it were normal, not to mention Ye Qingxuan's personal visit, even if he heard a little bit about Ye Qingxuan's movements, Alfred Jandrell would have rushed over immediately so that he could get closer to the beautiful lady. But he didn't expect that Alfred Jandrell would say no at this moment.

Retreat to advance? Are you trying to get away with it?

A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Christina Baker was a little surprised. When did his idiot, a young man like him, actually know how to play such a trick? Although it is a bit low-level, it is at least a small improvement. Could this be His thoughts on reading at night?

However, she still said dutifully as the life secretary: "Miss Ye Qingxuan said that she came to apologize to you. I think, out of politeness, it would be better for you to go and see her."

"Let's talk when I have time. I'm very busy."Alfred Jandrell said William.

When Christina Baker saw that Alfred Jandrell didn't seem to be faking it, his expression changed slightly, he nodded slightly and walked out.

In the hall of the main villa, Ye Qingxuan was sitting on the sofa with a smile on her face. She was wearing very simple clothes today, a plain purple dress, and her beautiful purple hair was simply tied behind her head, without any unnecessary complications. The decoration is exquisite, but the exquisite and noble temperament is still heart-warming.

Ye Qingxuan accompanied Lucy and chatted. Lucy praised Ye Qingxuan so much that she said with a smile that she really didn't know what kind of man was worthy of her.

Ye Qingxuan had long been accustomed to such flattery and didn't take it to heart. Although she was chatting with Lucy, she felt deep disgust in her heart.

Although Alfred Jandrell horse fall at the Flower Field Racecourse had nothing to do with her directly, the incident was so big that almost everyone in Yanjing knew about it. She also felt a lot of pressure and had to come to the rescue in person. Go to Jandrell's family to see Young Master Jiang.

Just thinking about the things that Young Master Jiang did to her in the past, Ye Qingxuan felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach. He was afraid that Young Master Jiang would do something ridiculous later, but now that he was here, he still had to behave as he should. .

Ye Qingxuan was absentmindedly talking to Lucy, but she was thinking about how she should face Alfred Jandrell later. To be honest, Alfred Jandrell countless entanglements had already made her extremely impatient. This time she came to see Alfred Jandrell. On the one hand, she felt the pressure, and on the other hand, she also planned to make Alfred Jandrell realize the reality and stop pestering her in the future.

After talking for a while, Christina Baker walked in from outside.

Only Christina Baker came in. He didn't see the nymphomaniac Mr. Jiang as expected. Ye Qingxuan was slightly startled and a little confused. The situation seemed a little different from what she imagined. Could it be that Alfred Jandrell's health was very serious and he couldn't go out? Yet? Otherwise, she really couldn't find a suitable explanation for this situation. The look that fell on Christina Baker was a little more inquisitive and incomprehensible.

Christina Baker glanced at Ye Qingxuan and said indifferently: "Miss Ye, the young master said that he is busy and has no time to see you."

Do not have time?

Ye Qingxuan's expression froze, and his brain almost stopped functioning.

"You have something to do?" Ye Qingxuan asked doubtfully.

Christina Baker nodded and said no more.

On the other hand, Lucy chuckled and said, "This is really strange. What on earth is our eldest young master of the Jandrell's family so busy with? He doesn't even have time to see guests?"

Having said that, Lucy was actually unwilling to let Alfred Jandrell and Ye Qingxuan meet. Although she knew in her heart that Ye Qingxuan would never look down on that idiot Alfred Jandrell, Alfred Jandrell had been pestering Ye Qingxuan, and even let Jandrell's family lose face. Others lost the opportunity to get close to Ye Qingxuan.

She really admired Ye Qingxuan, firstly because of Ye Qingxuan's noble beauty, and secondly because of Ye Qingxuan's background. She wanted Ye Qingxuan to get closer to her two sons, but she couldn't say this directly, otherwise it would be too realistic. .

"The young master is studying."Christina Baker still looked like that.

"Studying?"Lucy smiled exaggeratedly and said to Ye Qingxuan: "Miss Ye, did you hear clearly? Our eldest young master is studying. It is rare that he is eager to learn and make progress. It seems that he really has no time. What you said My good intentions are just going to go down the drain.”

How could Ye Qingxuan fail to hear the sarcasm in Lucy words? She was also a little bit dumbfounded. She already knew exactly what kind of person Alfred Jandrell was because she had been entangled with him too many times.

It was an international joke to say that Mr. Jiang had no time because of his studies. She even doubted whether Christina Baker said that on purpose, but Christina Baker looked serious when he said it, but it didn't look like he was joking.

Are you really reading?

But, how could it be?

Ye Qingxuan's mind was full of questions, but she didn't feel comfortable asking more questions, so she said softly: "Did Young Master Jiang say anything else?"

"The young master said that he is very busy now and will see you again when he has time."Christina Baker told the truth, although she couldn't understand what Alfred Jandrell was thinking.

Lucy said sarcastically: "He really thinks he is the eldest son of the Jandrell's family. Who does he think Miss Ye is that he can see whenever he wants?"

Christina Baker remained silent and didn't take Lucy's attitude to heart.

Ye Qingxuan took a breath and realized that he couldn't understand Alfred Jandrell. In the past, if he didn't say that he would rush in immediately, he would never have such an attitude.

Her understanding of the last sentence was different from that of Lucy. On the surface, Alfred Jandrell left room for words and did not give up on her. However, Ye Qingxuan felt that Alfred Jandrell really did not want to see her, otherwise, he would not have found her. Such a poor excuse to study, after all, it is too obvious.

Then he remembered what happened at the Jandrell's family yesterday afternoon. It was rumored that after Alfred Jandrell came out of the hospital, he started a fight at the Jandrell's family, slapped Harvey Jandrell in the face, and threw Eric Jandrell out of the door.

Not to mention how the powerless Alfred Jandrell did this, it was shocking enough to be able to do such a thing based on his timid character.

However, this matter was not honorable to the Jandrell's family, so she naturally would not ask about it. She just said, "I came here for no other reason than to see if Mr. Jiang is feeling better..."

As she spoke, she looked at Christina Baker. She was no stranger to Alfred Jandrell's life secretary, and she knew that with Christina Baker's wisdom, she could understand the meaning of her words, even though they were somewhat insincere.

"The young master is recovering well. There should be no serious problems. Please rest assured, Miss Ye."Christina Baker said as expected.

Ye Qingxuan nodded and said, "That's it for now. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

As she spoke, she handed a business card to Christina Baker and said, "If you have any questions in the future, please contact me directly."

Lucy opened her mouth, wanting to keep Ye Qingxuan down for a meal, but in the end she felt it wasn't appropriate, so she said, "I'll give it to you."

Christina Baker watched Ye Qingxuan leave with a worried look on his face, and the expression on his face became a little more excited. He thought thoughtfully that although Master Jiang's move was a bit inferior, it was not useless at all. , if Young Master Jiang knew Ye Qingxuan’s expression when he left, he would probably wake up laughing even in his dreams.
