Chapter 409: Fantasy Becomes Reality_1
Chang Danran quickly stood up, “Then you bathe Xiaoman, don’t let him play with water too much, or he’ll freeze.”
But before she could turn around, her wrist was grabbed, Xia Ye Zhao wouldn’t let her go, and he said, “You bathe him, I can’t.”
“What are you doing here if you can’t? If you want a son, you should learn to take care of him.”
She held on to her remaining sanity, keeping her eyes off him and focusing solely on Xiaoman’s naked body. But even without looking at him, the palpable tension in the air made her cautious, fearing that she would lose control if she stayed any longer.
Leaving those words, she tried to shake off the man’s hand, but her attempt was in vain. With a hard pull from Xia Ye Zhao, in the next instance, she went down uncontrollably. Had she not been quick to prop herself against his chest, she would have fallen into his arms. She couldn’t help but curse, “Xia Ye Zhao, have you had enough?”
He had missed out on five years of family bliss, never experiencing Xiaoman’s normal childhood. Xiaoman was already this big, and Xia Ye Zhao felt helpless, resentful, and hateful. He snapped, “You bathe him, or deal with him being cold, I don’t care.”
“Mommy, can’t you stay?”
To their surprise, Xiaoman also extended his little hand, grabbing Chang Danran’s arm, his eyes filled with expectation.
At this moment, Xiaoman was too happy. It seemed that things he dreamed of always became reality.
In a pitiful tone, Xiaoman pleaded, “I don’t want to be alone with the bad guy, I’ll freeze, I don’t want to take medicine anymore.”
Chang Danran sympathized with her son, glaring at Xia Ye Zhao, “Leave, I’ll bathe him first, and after I’m finished, you can go in.”
Xia Ye Zhao ignored her, and after releasing her arm, he took the remote control out of the small drawer next to the bathtub, turned on the television embedded in the bathroom wall, and while soaking in the bath, he flipped through the channels, finding something he was interested in.
Today was the presidential election, every television station was showing various presidential candidates’ speeches, and in less than an hour, the voting would end. Judging by the current vote count, there was no need to wait another hour, the winner was clear to all.
Ye Shiting was unstoppable, no one could compete with him, even Lawson Perry, who was once in a tight race with Ye Shiting, was affected by the gas station explosion and was thrown off by Ye Shiting.
Chang Danran glared at Xia Ye Zhao for a while, seeing that he was unmoved, she felt helpless and frustrated. Unable to resist her son’s plea, she had no choice but to continue bathing him. Fortunately, there was sound from the television, otherwise, she wouldn’t know what to do.
Ye Xingguang was also watching TV, curious about the election results?
She congratulated her sister-in-law in advance on WeChat, and was pulled into the Ye’s Family group chat. As soon as she entered the group, she saw people giving out red envelopes.
She couldn’t control her fingers and clicked on the red envelope. She didn’t expect to be the luckiest and received 0.1 yuan, while everyone else got just a few cents.
Tang Zhou: [Oh, I only got eight cents!]
Ji Qishu: [Hey! Little Starlight is the lucky one! The luckiest one must accept the punishment, come on, the one who gave out the red envelopes, announce the punishment.]
What? You have to accept punishment for grabbing a dime?
Ye Xingguang regretted clicking on the red envelope just now.
Ye Xingguang: [How about I give out red envelopes?]
Tang Zhou: [No, that doesn’t obey the rules of our group, the luckiest one must answer three truthful questions!]
