Ye Chen didn't expect that Lin Wanqiu had specially prepared a suit for him.
When he was wondering, Gu Yanzhong on the side smiled and said: "Aunt Lin was afraid that you would not prepare a suit when you came to Yanjing, so she specially asked the best custom suit master in London to make one for you."
Ye Chen thanked: "Thank you Aunt Lin!"
Lin Wanqiu smiled and said, "Why are you so polite to Auntie? I estimated the size of the suit and gave it to you. I don't know if it suits you. Come and try it on."
At this time, Gu Qiuyi, who was wearing a nightgown, also yawned and walked out of the room, and said with a smile: "Brother Ye Chen, the suit my mother ordered for you is very handsome. It is said that many prime ministers and presidents in Europe and North America,
They are all regular customers of that master! Go and try it!"
Ye Chen couldn't resist the kindness, so he followed the mother and daughter to the independent cloakroom upstairs.
The walk-in closet in the Gu family was larger than a normal bedroom, at least more than 40 square meters. Lin Wanqiu took Ye Chen to the full-length mirror, and then took out a brand new black suit from the closet next to it.
Gu Qiuyi took out an ironed, wrinkle-free white shirt and a tie from the closet on the side.
Lin Wanqiu handed the suit to Ye Chen and said with a smile: "Chen'er, try it on to see if it fits."
Ye Chen said with a bit of embarrassment: "Aunt Lin, if you have a free room, can I try on clothes?"
Gu Qiuyi said hurriedly: "Mom, you should go out first, otherwise brother Ye Chen will be shy. I will just help him change clothes here."
Ye Chen said helplessly: "Nanny, I can do it on my own, how about you avoid it first?"
Gu Qiuyi curled her lips and said, "I'm already your child bride. Why don't you ask me to avoid you when you change clothes..."
Ye Chen blurted out: "Why did I become a child bride..."
Gu Qiuyi said seriously: "I have been betrothed to you since you were a child. What is the difference between this and a child bride?"
Lin Wanqiu said with a smile: "Okay, girl, stop teasing Chen'er. Let's go out first and let Chen'er change before we come in."
Gu Qiuyi looked at Ye Chen, smiled mischievously, took off the tie from his shirt, shook it in his hand, and said: "Brother Ye Chen, I'll tie the tie for you later."
After saying that, he walked out of the cloakroom with his mother.
...
At the same time, Helena, who was in Buckingham Palace, had also gotten up from the bed.
Last night, she didn't have a good rest the whole night because she was worried that something would happen to her.
At first, I couldn't fall asleep for a long time. I finally fell asleep, but I kept having all kinds of nightmares. I slept intermittently for less than two hours.
Her physical condition was already very bad. She didn't get enough rest during the past few days since she came to China, which made her physical condition even worse. So the suffering last night made her even worse.
When she got up, she felt that her heartbeat had been accelerating uncontrollably, almost losing control.
She quickly took out a nitroglycerin tablet, put it under her tongue and took it, then she felt a little better.
However, the overall condition of the person is still very different.
Thinking of having to stay at Ye's house almost all day today and tomorrow, Helena couldn't help but wonder whether her body could hold on.
But she also knew that even if she couldn't hold on, she still had to hold on. Whether her mother would be able to rely on her when she grew old in the future was basically all up to her.
At this moment, she suddenly received a call from her mother from Northern Europe. As soon as the call was connected, her mother said on the other end of the phone: "Helena, the royal family has just informed that your grandma is suffering from multiple organ failure.
He is in a severe coma and may die at any time..."
Helena was suddenly shocked: "Why did it deteriorate so quickly?!"
"I don't know." Helena's mother said: "I just heard that the situation has deteriorated sharply and is out of control. The doctor said that it is impossible for her to wake up. When she will die is just a matter of time. If it is soon, it will be two or three days at most.
, if it’s slow, it won’t take more than a week.”
Helena couldn't help but feel a little sad and lost.
Although she was sometimes dissatisfied with her grandma's tough tactics, many times she could still understand all the decisions made by the tough old lady.
This naturally included her abrogating her right to inherit the throne.
Although grandma has held great power for so many years, she has always served the royal family wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly hopes that the royal family will continue to be strong.
Therefore, every decision she makes is not based on her own interests, but on the overall situation of the royal family.
Helena still admired her for this.
Now, her grandma will pass away soon, but she is still thousands of miles away in China, which makes her inevitably sad.
At this time, Helena's mother said again: "If your grandma passes away in these days, I'm afraid your engagement party will be postponed. According to the royal rules, you will definitely have to come back to attend your grandma's funeral first.
Then we will attend Olivia’s coronation ceremony, and then go to China to hold an engagement banquet with Ye Feng.”
"Understood." Helena said very understandingly: "As a member of the royal family, the funeral of the queen and the coronation of the new emperor are naturally the two most important things."
Saying that, Helena couldn't help but ask: "Mom, can I go back to see grandma for the last time before she passes away? The engagement party will definitely be postponed, and there is no point in me staying here. If I wait until grandma passes away, I can go back
, then there will be no chance."
Helena's mother sighed and said: "We can't take the lead in this matter. You have to ask Olivia what she means. Although she has not been officially crowned yet, she has taken over all the affairs of the royal family.
, if you want to come back to see your grandma for the last time, ask Olivia for her opinion first, and if she nods, it will be no problem."
"Okay!" Helena said hurriedly: "Then I'll call Olivia right now."
After Helena said goodbye to her mother, she immediately called her cousin and the next queen who was about to be crowned, Olivia.
The phone rang for a long time, but the call was never connected. Just when Helena was about to hang up and call back later, the call was connected.
Immediately, a woman's slightly smiling voice sounded on the other end of the phone: "Helena, how are you doing in China recently, my sister?"
Helena hurriedly said: "Olivia, I heard that grandma is critically ill?"
The person on the other side smiled and said, "Yes, sister, she has multiple organ failure, and the doctor has told us to be mentally prepared to lose her at any time."
Helena felt that Olivia's chuckle was a bit harsh, but she didn't care about the entanglement at this time and asked her hurriedly: "Olivia, if grandma's condition is so bad, then she may not be able to wait until I get engaged.
He died in one day..."
"I will definitely have to go back to attend the funeral, and the engagement will have to be postponed. So I want to explain the situation to the Ye family first, postpone the engagement temporarily, and go back to see grandma for the last time. Is that okay?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and then the other party lost his smile and asked coldly: "If I remember correctly, you are going to get engaged on the 7th, right?"
"Yes." Helena blurted out: "There are still three days! I'm worried that grandma won't survive these three days. In that case, I won't be able to see her for the last time."
The other party sneered: "Helena, grandma is now in a severe coma and will never wake up again. Even if you come back, she won't recognize you. I think you don't have to worry about it! It doesn't matter whether she is dead or alive within three days.
, your engagement with the Ye family will be held as scheduled, and no changes are allowed!"
