Similarly, in a castle more than twenty kilometers away, there was a man who stayed awake all night.
Ye Hao leaned against the bedside. The ashtray on the bedside cabinet was filled with smoked ashtray. Although he usually did not smoke much, this night, however, he smoked a whole pack of cigarettes, making the whole room smoky.
Nevertheless, he continued to smoke one after another as if he couldn’t smell or feel it.
His eyebrows were locked tightly, his eyes a little puffy because of lack of rest. Several times, he picked up his cell phone and wanted to call her, but cast it aside before getting through.
At this time, he knew very well that in her eyes, he was not as important as that child, so he could guess that she would not hesitate to leave home to take care of her child if there was something wrong with the child or he got sick.
Thinking that such things would occur frequently, Ye Hao seemed not able to extend his locked eyebrows, with unspeakable anxiety sticking in his heart.
He got up very early in the morning, even earlier than home maids.
Out of the bedroom, he heard the baby crying.
It was his daughter, no, their daughter, crying.
Xixi, only five months old, would cry the moment she woke up. She cried so loudly that he could hear it in the corridor.
Ye Hao went to the children’s room without hesitation. He knocked hard at the door. Soon, the nanny came to open the door, with Xixi who was crying in her arms.
“What’s wrong with the child?” Ye Hao reached out to take over his child, his amber eyes half squinted.
The nanny quickly brought a tissue and wiped the milk spilled out of the baby’s mouth. Then she looked at Ye Hao and said somewhat nervously, “Recently, Xixi would vomit milk sometimes. Her sleep is shallow and would wake up several times in the evening.”
The nanny said so honestly. Such a small child was not easy to take care of, and she had always been very careful. After all, she was a little princess born with a golden spoon. If there was anything wrong with her, she could not bear the responsibility.
Ye Hao gently patted the child’s back. He looked at the nanny, whose face even turned red with nervousness. There was no blame in his eyes, but more worry.
“Tomorrow morning, I will call the doctor of the children’s hospital to have an examination of the child. You take good care of her. It’s cold now. Be careful not to let the child catch cold.”
Ye Hao said so with some worry. As a man who had been working all the year round, he did not know how to take care of children or how to coax them, but he indeed loved his baby daughter deeply.
As long as his daughter was a little uncomfortable, even if she cried a little, he would get worried.
The nanny took the baby and nodded, saying, “Okay, sir, I’ll take good care of Xixi. Well, you don’t seem to have a good rest. It’s still early, just about six o’clock in the morning, why not go to sleep for a little while? I’ll pay attention to Xixi.”
The nanny had noticed his thick black circles and traces of blood in his eyes. She even caught a choking smell of tobacco. She knew that Mr. Ye must have stayed up all night.
Ye Hao responded with a cold hum, without saying anything. He turned around and went into the corridor again. Meanwhile, his figure was pulled very long by the light.
Today was the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, the traditional lunar year. It would be quite noisy and busy in the castle, because all the servants, chefs and safety guards at home would get together for the Lunar New Year’s Eve dinner. They would also play some games under the arrangement of butler Lu. More importantly, they would get year-end bonuses and so on.
