Shen Yi didn’t say anything more and walked out of the meeting room.
By the time Shen Yi returned to his office and pushed the door open, he could hear the sound of a cartoon. Ye Wanwan was holding Zhouzhou and watching the cartoon.
Upon hearing the door open, both of them looked back. Seeing Shen Yi come in, Ye Wanwan casually asked, "All done?"
"Yeah," Shen Yi nodded.
By then, Zhouzhou had already climbed out of Ye Wanwan’s arms and ran towards Shen Yi. As Zhouzhou hurled himself at him, Shen Yi bent down and scooped Zhouzhou up into his arms.
"Daddy daddy daddy..." Zhouzhou called many times in one breath.
The trace of anger Shen Yi felt from seeing Fang Xian had disappeared. He kissed Zhouzhou on the forehead and said softly, "Did Mommy say Zhouzhou came to bring Daddy some little bread?"
Zhouzhou nodded vigorously, then turned to point at the bag on the coffee table, "The little bread is there."
During this exchange, Shen Yi had already carried Zhouzhou over to the sofa and sat down next to Ye Wanwan.
Zhouzhou also climbed down from Shen Yi’s embrace to grab the bag from the coffee table, intent on opening it to give the bread inside to his dad.
Meanwhile, Shen Yi was carefully observing Ye Wanwan’s expression. Seeing that there was no change in her demeanor, he couldn’t help but ask, "Did you see Fang Xian?"
Upon hearing Shen Yi’s words, Ye Wanwan turned her head to look at him and then nonchalantly nodded, "Yeah, I saw her."
Shen Yi looked at Ye Wanwan, unsure of what to say for a moment.
In their past life, the outcome of their relationship was like that, both he and Ye Wanwan had issues, but among those, Fang Xian was the most critical factor.
It was because he had not explained and handled the situation with Fang Xian properly that subsequent events had unfolded.
In this life, when he thought back on it, it always left a bad taste in his mouth.
Seeing that Shen Yi fell silent, Ye Wanwan spoke up, "Don’t worry, she can’t affect me now."
Indeed, in the present day, Fang Xian truly couldn’t affect her anymore. She wouldn’t doubt Shen Yi’s love for her because of any action Fang Xian might take.
"No, it’s just that... when I think about how she bullied you last time and I did nothing, it makes me feel very upset," Shen Yi said with a heavy voice.
He had always thought he was a qualified husband. His contact with Fang Xian was only for work, and he never interacted with her privately. He couldn’t understand why Ye Wanwan was so troubled back then.
Yet he never really knew how Fang Xian bullied Ye Wanwan in private.
"Those things are all in the past now, and to be fair, my emotions were indeed unstable back then. I didn’t know what the right way to handle things was, and I was a bit extreme," Ye Wanwan said.
Shen Yi raised a hand to touch Ye Wanwan’s head since Zhouzhou was watching, he couldn’t make any more excessive moves.
"Daddy, eat." Zhouzhou had already opened the box and held it out to Shen Yi.
"Thank you, Zhouzhou." Shen Yi did not refuse and began eating the little bread.
After taking a bite, he handed it to Ye Wanwan, who took it from Shen Yi’s hand and bit into it.
Zhouzhou, who originally didn’t want to eat, asked for some after seeing his mom eat. Shen Yi obliged and let Zhouzhou take a bite as well.
The small piece of bread was quickly finished with one bite each. Zhouzhou hurriedly grabbed the box again, gesturing for Shen Yi to continue eating.
"We’re going out to eat in a while, so we can’t have snacks now," Shen Yi explained to Zhouzhou.
