C102 Favorite Marriage 35
"Sister Han, take good care of Auntie. She likes to walk slowly, don't walk fast."
"I know, thank you, Miss Soong."
After Soong Wanting had left, Fu Fengyi looked at Xia Yihan with a serious expression and asked, "Did you know about the fight between Mo and Hai Zhixuan this morning?"
Xia Yihan nodded. "Understood, Madam."
"Then I won't beat around the bush. Let me ask you, is the fight between the two of them related to you?"
Xia Yihan nodded again.
"Yes, ma'am."
She was frank, but Fu Fengyi liked to talk to frank people.
"Yihan, to tell you the truth, I have no objections to you being a child. And I sympathize with what happened to your boyfriend. But now because of you, Mo and Hai Zhixuan have become like this, I will not sit idly by. Think about it, Hai Zhixuan's mother is my best friend, and Mo and Hai Zhixuan are also good friends who grew up together. "I really can't see them acting against me. When the time comes, it will be embarrassing for our good friends. Do you understand?"
"I'm sorry, ma'am, I know." She had been trying to think of a way to avoid a conflict between the two of them, but Hai Zhixuan insisted on getting close to her. She couldn't avoid him. As for Ye Zimo, it was impossible for her to let go of her.
"Let's sit down and talk." Fu Fengyi held Xia Yihan's hand and was about to sit on the chair beside the lilac tree, but Xia Yihan pulled Fu Fengyi and said softly, "Madam, this is a wooden chair. The dew at night will seep in and it will get a little damp, so you'd better not sit there for fear of hurting your body."
Her meticulous actions made Fu Fengyi's heart warm. Actually, she knew that Xia Yihan was smart and understood what she wanted to say to her. Even though he knew that she had come with ill intentions, he was still truly concerned about her. This wasn't something that an ordinary person could do.
From the bottom of her heart, Fu Fengyi and Ye Zimo had the same aesthetic sense. They didn't like people who pretended to be pretentious, and even more so, didn't like people who were two-faced.
For Xia Yihan, she always felt that the woman her son fancied wouldn't be bad. If she had such a sensible woman as Ye Zimo's wife, it wouldn't be a bad thing. The problem was that this woman had a boyfriend, so she might not fall in love with her son. Although Soong Wanting knew how to play with her hands, she was jealous of Ye Zimo after all.
In this way of thinking, Fu Fengyi would still choose Soong Wanting over Xia Yihan to choose between the two.
"Do you know what I want to talk to you about?" Fu Fengyi stared at Xia Yihan as she asked.
"Madam felt that I had caused a ruckus between Mr Ye and Mr Hai and also caused a ruckus between Mr Ye and Miss Soong, so Madam wanted me to leave." Xia Yihan said affirmatively. Fu Fengyi nodded and said, "You're a smart girl, so I don't have to say too much. Last time, I asked you if you needed any help, but you said no. I don't think you are a moneygrubber or a vain person. You just want your ex-boyfriend Mo Xiaojun to die in peace, I promise you I will supervise Lao Ye to thoroughly investigate this matter. Are you satisfied with this? "
Xia Yihan knew that Ye Zimo was filial to her mother, so Fu Fengyi directly scolded her and ordered her to be thrown out. This was within reason.
She was very grateful that she treated her so politely. And she did cause trouble for her son, for her family, and she felt guilty.
"Madam, I am very grateful to you. But I may not be able to leave. At least I have no right to. To tell you the truth, so long has passed since the case of Mo Xiaojun, so much evidence has been lost. Even if Director-General Ye tried his best to investigate, he might not be able to reverse the case. Mr Ye said he can help me, but on condition that I do his... Lady Qing, I promised him. I don't have the right to default, I don't have the right to leave, although I don't want to stay here. I'm sorry, ma'am, I know I'm causing you and your family trouble, but I really can't help it. I can only try to stay out of sight, but I can't. "
Xia Yihan told the entirety of her agreement with Ye Zimo to Fu Fengyi in one go. She had a good impression of Fu Fengyi, so she didn't want to hide it from her.
"I know." Fu Fengyi only said two words before she turned around and left.
Xia Yihan looked at her lonely back with melancholy. She could understand her mother's feelings.
I hope she can convince Ye Zimo to let her go.
In separate days, she might miss that uncertain man, even if it was lovesick, so much better than constantly torturing each other.
The reason why Fu Fengyi didn't say anything else was because she suddenly understood that her son had used all sorts of methods to keep a woman. From this, it could be seen how important this woman was in his heart. In the past, it had always been other women pestering him. He didn't like them. As for this one, if he wanted to threaten Jia Li Yin, he would probably use all of his methods.
Humans were often like this. The more you knew something you couldn't get, the better you felt.
He probably knew that there was another man in this woman's heart, so he couldn't love her. That was why he wanted her heart.
Ye Zimo was good in every way, but her desire to conquer the enemy was too strong. He wanted to conquer this world, to conquer women who would not submit to him. It was really a headache for her to be a mother like this, and she couldn't use any forceful methods either. Otherwise, it would be the opposite of what she was doing.
She couldn't start with Xia Yihan, but she couldn't give up just like that. She could only think of other, gentler methods.
Xia Yihan took a few more steps forward. She originally only felt that the Ye Family villa was big, but now she realized that it could be this small. When she raised her head, she saw Hai Zhixuan who was not far away.
Without a second thought, she turned and walked back.
Hai Zhixuan also noticed the green figure leaving in a hurry. He was still worried about her. Now that he saw that she was still able to walk around properly, he could finally relax a little.
Realizing that she didn't want him to get too close to her, he resisted the urge to speak to her and stopped.
Xia Yihan was grateful that he didn't catch up with her, so she quickened her pace and walked the other way.
The road was closer to the gym. Every day, when it was time for Ye Zimo's morning practice, Xia Yihan saw the steward and servants standing side by side in the transparent gym, waiting for Ye Zimo.
She thought that since Ye Zimo had punished her for one night, she must be tired and in a bad mood, so she wouldn't come for morning training.
"Hello, Mr Ye!" Hearing the servants's greeting, she looked up and saw a tall figure walking into the gym.
She just stood there, watching him run through the transparent glass of the gym, chest out, doing regular exercises.
He looked preoccupied, at least at such a distance that it was impossible to tell that he was still angry. In the morning light, his every movement seemed powerful and graceful at the same time.
When she saw the servants's infatuated gaze unconsciously drift towards him, he seemed completely oblivious.
It was as if he owned the entire world, but he also seemed to be standing high above the crowd, incomparably lonely and cold.
Occasionally she wanted to be with him, and occasionally she felt that she was not qualified.
No matter how cold or lonely he was, he was still not as cold or lonely as Xiaojun.
If he was angry, then maybe it would be fine. As long as he didn't torture her like a pervert and just ignored her, letting her disappear from his sight, that would be the ideal situation, right?
Thinking of this, she let out a long sigh.
"You love him, Yihan?" Someone suddenly asked her a question from behind. Xia Yihan was surprised for a moment, but then she turned around and saw that it was Hee Wen.
She didn't know how long Hee Wen stood behind her, but she couldn't hear the footsteps behind her when she looked at Ye Zimo.
After their few interactions, Xia Yihan's impression of Hee Wen had improved a lot. Although she still thought of them as friends and their identities were a little awkward, she was still grateful to her in her heart.
Xia Yihan didn't answer her question. Instead, she asked lightly, "How come you're up so early?"
"I can't sleep, so I got up to take a walk." Hee Wen's voice was also soft.
"Life is actually really very short. If you love one person, you might as well admit it. It would be too painful to avoid suspicion between two people. Fate will not always wait there. Why wait until we can't be together before coming back to regret not being brave enough? " Hee Wen's words seemed to be spoken for Xia Yihan, but also for herself. After saying that, she sighed as her eyes seemed to shine with a faint light.
How could Xia Yihan not understand the meaning behind her words? Last night, Ye Zimo's "who is your lover" had already made it very clear that he wanted her to fall in love with him.
If she had, he would not have been angry today.
But could she make the people under the ground feel cold in order to keep him from getting angry?
If one day, like Hee Wen had said, she had to leave this place, she did not know whether she would regret not being brave enough at this moment. Even if she regretted it, she would not be able to change these inherent thoughts.
"Go back?" Xia Yihan asked Hee Wen in a soft voice. From beginning to end, she didn't answer her.
"Okay, go back."
The two of them finished their conversation and walked towards the main house slowly. They didn't hold hands, but they walked closer to each other.
Hee Wen thought about the man in her heart. Her steps were heavy, and so was Xia Yihan.
It was just a short walk, but it seemed like they had walked for a very long time, until they simultaneously heard the voice of the butler.
"Mr Ye, I've almost finished preparing to choose a female servant. "Do you think we should do as we did last time, or just interview a few people?"
"No need to cause such a stir. I will call Lin Ling over and check with Lin Dahui. Then, choose another ten people to enter."
Ten. This number made Xia Yihan's heart feel uncomfortable for some reason. He didn't know if these ten women would be like last time, half of them were taken to bed by him. If that was the case, then the frequency at which he filled his harem wouldn't be any less than the emperor's.
Xia Yihan's lonely expression did not escape Hee Wen's eyes. She guessed that the two of them might have gotten into a fight.
With the intention to create a chance for them, Hee Wen called out after the butler finished talking with Ye Zimo: "Mr Ye!"
Ye Zimo looked in the direction of the voice, her eyes cold and her expression icy.
"Go back to your work." He ordered the butler behind him.
"Yes, Mr Ye."
Xia Yihan could tell from Ye Zimo's expression that his anger had yet to subside. She didn't know if she should go and say something to make him happy, or if it would be better if she stayed away from him and let him ignore her.
She was always afraid that her past might backfire and make him angrier.
She did not take a step forward, nor did she take a step back. She just stood there.
Ye Zimo looked coldly at her face, her lips slightly parted as she coldly said, "Come here!"
He was looking at Xia Yihan, so Xia Yihan followed his instructions and walked two steps towards him. Unexpectedly, Ye Zimo frowned slightly and said unhappily, "I didn't call you, I called Hee Wen."
Xia Yihan's steps came to an awkward halt as her face turned red and she bit her lips, unable to move again.
Hee Wen knew that Ye Zimo was purposely embarrassing Xia Yihan and wanted to help her, but she had no other choice. She had to listen to Ye Zimo's orders as well.
"Wenwen, did you sleep well last night?" Ye Zimo suddenly put her arm around Hee Wen's shoulder and spoke to her in a very gentle tone.
Xia Yihan knew that he was intentionally making her feel uncomfortable and jealous. She didn't want him to succeed, but when she saw his strong arm resting on another woman's shoulder, she had the urge to step forward and pull it off.
Hee Wen's heart was also in pain. She instinctively rejected the idea of Ye Zimo suddenly getting close to her. Although he was excellent or even brilliant, he was many times better than the person in her heart. But love itself is wondrous, and once you have one in your heart, it's hard to put it in another.
So even if she pretended to be intimate with another man, she didn't want to.
"You slept well, Mr Ye." Hee Wen replied submissively.
"I'll sleep in your room tonight. Prepare yourself."
Ye Zimo's words floated into Xia Yihan's ears once more. With a bitter smile, she turned around and walked in the opposite direction, no longer looking at or listening. Whatever that man said or did, it was not something she could control.
It didn't matter if he went to Hee Wen's room to sleep, or Soong Wanting's room to sleep. Since they were his women, it was normal for him to sleep.
There were no footsteps behind her. Ye Zimo knew that damnable woman didn't follow him, so who else was he going to act for? Even he himself felt that borrowing a woman to provoke her and make her jealous was a very childish and laughable thing to do.
She was not like him, she was mad at him when he heard her talk in her sleep. Her heart was as tranquil as water, without any emotions. She wouldn't be jealous of him. The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became. He frowned, but the woman walking in the opposite direction couldn't see anything.
After making a turn, he let go of Hee Wen.
Hee Wen sneaked a glance at him and saw how serious his expression was.
"Mr Ye, you're not happy with what you're doing, why are you doing this? Do you want me to tell her that nothing has ever happened between you and me, and that the two of you are still … "
"Aren't you talking too much?" Ye Zimo's tone was displeased and she frowned slightly. Hee Wen could only apologize, "I'm sorry, Mr Ye. I am truly grateful to you, and I feel that Yihan truly loves you, so I said too much. "
"Don't talk like that in the future!"
"Yes, Mr Ye. It won't happen again." Hee Wen thought of her father and did not dare to offend Ye Zimo.
"Your dad's operation, Lin Dahui, has already been arranged for a specialist. It can be done in three days. I will tell the butler to send a car to take you to the hospital. You can stay there to accompany him, and Lin Dahui can have someone to accompany him. If there's anything you need, you don't have to tell me. Just directly tell Lin Dahui. "
Hee Wen really did not expect Ye Zimo to think over her matter so thoroughly. She thought he was just going to give her some money, but she didn't think he was going to help arrange the specialists and even think about the care.
From this, it could be seen that he was a person with a cold expression and a warm heart.
Hee Wen's eyes were filled with tears of gratitude. Before she could thank him again, Ye Zimo had already left.
Xia Yihan circled around and specifically chose a place no one would walk to. This time, she finally met no one.
When it was almost time for Mo Xiaonong to wake up, she went back to the main house and her blue room.
Mo Xiaonong had indeed woken up. She had already washed up and was sitting on the bed, playing with her cell phone. She seemed to be able to use her cell phone every second of every minute other than eating and sleeping. She just ate and slept. It seemed like her cell phone wouldn't leave her side.
Xia Yihan used to dislike this habit of hers very much. She was afraid that the radiation from her phone would be too great, but now she was envious of her.
At least she seemed to be able to do something. If she had a cell phone, wouldn't she be able to stop thinking about how that man had embraced another woman?
"Sis, what's wrong? You lost your soul? " Mo Xiaonong finally noticed Xia Yihan and placed her phone on the bed.
The kiss on Xia Yihan's neck clearly showed what had happened between her and Ye Zimo last night. Logically speaking, both of them had been set on fire. Perhaps it was as good as new, but why did this person seem so lovelorn now?
"Nothing. Are you going to school today? "
"Aiya, every time you say it, nothing will happen. Tell me, did you have a conflict with Brother Zimo? What are you all doing there? Why are you still not reconciling? What exactly is going on? " Mo Xiaonong crouched down and carefully examined Xia Yihan's face. Her delicate and pretty eyebrows slightly knitted together. It was obvious that she was in an extremely bad mood.
Xia Yihan also wanted to know why Ye Zimo was so angry. She had walked for such a long time by herself just now, so she seriously recalled every word they said from last night until this morning.
It seemed that the problem was that after she went to sleep, she seemed to have dreamt of Xiaojun. Did he get angry because she said Xiaojun's name when she went to sleep?
It could be, it could also be that he remembered the matter of her and Hai Zhixuan leaving.
It was hard to guess what he was thinking, and even if she guessed correctly and apologized, he might not necessarily be happy.
Therefore, at this moment, other than being quiet, there seemed to be nothing she could do.
"I'm asking you, Sis." Mo Xiaonong shook Xia Yihan's thigh, making Xia Yihan, who was deep in thought, wake up a little.
"I don't know what's going on, but he suddenly got angry. Alright, if you have lessons, then prepare to leave after breakfast. "If you don't have any classes, you can go play with your phone. I'm going to take a bath."
