“Mum, please don’t hurt He Xiyan,” he looked at his mother once more with a conflicted expression. He knew what his mother was like and he was afraid that she would resort to some extreme measures that would end up causing He Xiyan pain once again.
Li Qin scoffed coldly and she thought that her son was being ridiculous. Her son was obviously not as concerned about his mother as he was about his wife.
“Forget it, Yixuan. I’m not as powerful as you make me out to be. He Xiyan has the support of that bastard Ye Hao, so what could I possibly do to her?” Li Qin said as she turned away to look out of the window and refused to say another word.
——
Ye Hao carried He Xiyan to the car and he looked livid throughout the entire journey. He didn’t say a word when he got into the car but immediately started driving back toward the castle.
He drove very quickly and his amber eyes were both dark and stormy, his anger and irritation clearly reflected within them.
He Xiyan stole glances at her husband and her lips were tightly pursed. She didn’t explain but she could tell that he was very angry.
Ye Hao helped her unbuckle her seatbelt after they reached the castle and walked her back to the castle but he still remained completely silent.
“Ye Hao…” He Xiyan grabbed his hand when he turned around and looked anxiously at him. She knew that he must have been very angry and thus, refused to speak.
Ye Hao turned back to look at her and the irritation in his eyes had yet to disappear. He shrugged her hand off him and frowned. Then he said in a low voice, “I have to go back to the office since there’s still work to be done.”
Then, he walked out of the living room and did not even look back as he entered his car and zoomed away.
He Xiyan watched him leave in a daze.
She bit her lips hard and stared fixedly at his car that was driving further away. Her heart suddenly clenched in pain as though something had coiled itself tightly around it and she found it hard to breathe.
Qin Xiaoyu took in everything and shook He Xiyan’s hand as she said, “Sister He, the master seems very angry.”
Qin Xiaoyu could tell that he was extremely angry and this was also why she didn’t say anything earlier. She had already noticed his rage after they left the restaurant.
He Xiyan looked at the ceiling sorrowfully and she blinked her eyes hard. Soon, tears rolled down her cheeks despite her best efforts to rein them in.
“He is angry,” she said hoarsely.
This was the first time that he had lost his temper since they were married and this time, he even refused to speak to her.
Yuan Yuan ran over at this moment and there was a small robot that was slightly taller than him trailing behind him.
“Ma ma…” Yuan Yuan said as he wrapped his arms around her legs and looked up at his mother, his eyes twinkling.
He gently patted his mother’s thigh when he saw that she was crying and looked a little unhappy as his lips pursed into a thin line.
He Xiyan stooped down when she heard her son calling out to her and suddenly hugged him tightly.
“Ma ma…” Yuan Yuan said as he stared at his mother. He was still young and didn’t know much but he knew that his mother was crying. He stretched out his tiny hands and gently placed them beside his mother’s eyes as he tried to wipe her tears away.
He didn’t know what to do when he saw her crying, so he could only hold his mother’s head and place his small face at the crook of her neck.
He Xiyan cried sorrowfully as though she was on the verge of collapse and her arms wrapped even tighter around her son. He was hers and no one could take her child away from her.
