Xiao Minxing asked me about Ye Guang when he returned in the evening.
I briefly told him what had happened during the day. Xiao Minxing didn't mention anything wrong but instead asked, "Did you contact Mina today?"
"No, I went out early in the morning and was busy until the afternoon. As soon as I got home, I was caught up by Xiao Zhe. I just managed to get away a moment ago."
Xiao Minxing put down the bag he was holding and said, "I'm going to hang out with that kid for a while. You should call Mina and check on her. My assistant mentioned she didn't go to work today."
Since Mina's company is the one that Xiao Minhui sold, there are business connections between it and Xiao Minxing's company. However, after they separated back then, the siblings had a falling out, so all those connections were cut off.
Now that the company is in Mina's hands, it wouldn't be surprising if they reestablished business ties.
I didn't think much of it and went upstairs to call Mina.
The call went through, and from her voice, I couldn't detect anything unusual. However, considering Mina's past experience with heartbreak, even though this time wasn't exactly that, her situation with Longwen yesterday wasn't great either, so I was still worried.
Mina casually said on the other end, "It's fine, don't worry about me. We’re okay; it’s not like we really broke up. Even if we did, so what? Who hasn’t gone through a breakup?"
I advised her, "Mina, maybe you should talk to Longwen again?"
She quickly replied, "I will; don’t worry."
Just like before, nothing seemed to reach her heart. I had no other options and could only wait to see how things would unfold the next day.
I have finished reading all the information about the comic, and Bai Xiaoqing has also listed out the tasks I need to do. Previously, because of Ye Guang's situation, I had already postponed my work schedule. Now that everything is arranged for him, I need to go to work.
The next morning, I left with Xiao Minxing. After he dropped me off at the studio, he drove to his own company.
At the elevator entrance, I saw Long Wen standing next to Ye Guang.
He had changed his clothes and it looked like he had gotten a haircut, but his gaze was still blank, and he remained silent, standing two steps behind Long Wen.
Long Wen came over and said, "I'll leave him in your care. What time do you finish work? I'll come to pick him up."
"No need, I'll take him over since I finish work at that time anyway."
After saying that, I remembered Mina and looked at Long Wen, saying, "Mina didn't come to work yesterday. I'm not sure if she's unwell. If you have time during the day, could you check on her for me?"
Long Wen just smiled without giving a clear answer and waved goodbye.
I watched him walk away before calling Xiao Minxing: "Didn't you say you would look into Long Wen's details? When will you check?"
He must have been busy because I could hear his assistant reporting work in the background on the phone.
However, he patiently listened to me finish speaking before replying, "Today is your first day at work; focus on that first, Miss Yuan."
I felt a bit annoyed upon hearing this and shouted back at him, "The company is yours! I was fine before not coming in. It doesn't matter if it's one or two days. But I'm really worried about Mina's situation. Besides, it's not like I'm going there myself; I'm just asking you to help me find someone to check."
I could tell he was a bit annoyed, yet it seemed he didn't want to make me sad, so he reluctantly replied, "Alright, I'll go take a look today."
I smiled at my phone and said, "Then I’ll leave it to you, dear Mr. Xiao Minxing. I'm off to work now."
After hanging up with Xiao Minxing, my mind was still on Longwen and Mina's situation when I turned around and saw Ye Guang staring at me.
His face showed little expression, and when his eyes were on me, there was no emotion like a normal person would have; instead, it was a blank gaze, as if he were looking at a cloud in the sky or a line on his drawing paper.
I couldn't figure out what he was thinking and had no desire to guess, so I led him into the company.
I arranged for Ye Guang to have a private room and instructed the staff not to disturb him before I went off to handle other matters.
It wasn't until noon that I took the ordered lunch to the small room to find him quietly sitting in the chair. The drawing paper in front of him was completely blank, not even the pencil beside it had been touched. He sat there like a statue, staring out the window at the sky.
"Ye Guang, what's wrong?" I asked as I approached him.
He didn't turn to look at me and remained still in the same position.
I walked over to his side and placed the lunch box on the table in front of him. To entice his appetite, I opened the box, letting the aroma waft out.
"Let's eat, Ye Guang. After we finish eating, can you talk to me about what's on your mind?"
Since we found him, he had expressed almost no thoughts aside from his unwillingness to return to the Ye Family and the Hospital; everything had been left up to us.
Now looking at him, something seems off again. I don't know if he is dissatisfied with our arrangements or if he has other thoughts.
I have never been good at reading people's minds, especially not Ye Guang, who is inherently difficult to understand. I can only communicate with him in this way.
Letting him read the Anxing comic was also to make it easier to take care of him and to give him a place to pass the time. But if these are things he doesn't like, then what's the difference between this and being in the Ye family or the hospital?
Ye Guang still sat there motionless, not even blinking, as if something particularly interesting outside the window was deeply capturing his attention.
I had no choice but to walk to the window and look outside. Then I suddenly realized that from our position, I could see the community rented by Long Wen. Although I couldn't see the specific buildings, the angle from the glass window allowed me to see the large characters on the upper floors of the community.
I was a bit surprised and returned to Ye Guang's side to ask, "Are you looking at where you live?"
Perhaps because I blocked his original view, Ye Guang finally looked at me, but his eyes were hollow and confused, showing no sign of focus.
I spent about half an hour trying to persuade him and comfort him, hoping he would eat before continuing to sit there. But this guy remained unmoved, as if nailed to the chair.
Feeling anxious and helpless, I initially thought of asking Xiao Minxing for help. However, he must be extremely busy right now. If I called him, he would definitely have to come over again, which would be too much trouble. Moreover, he might not even be able to handle Ye Guang, so after hesitating for a long time, I decided to call Su Qian.
The phone rang for quite a while before he picked up. He didn't greet me like before but directly asked, "What's up?"
His tone and voice were somewhat similar to Xiao Minxing's—cold and indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with me.
