The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex - Chapter 466
Chapter 466: I’ll Be with You Every Step of the Way
Ye Hao left the room and quietly shut the door.
He went into the kitchen and brought the big bag of things he had bought into the kitchen. The kitchen seemed a little old and at less than ten square meters, it was also very small. Fortunately, there were gas and basic cooking equipment.
He scooped the rice, then sliced up the vegetables. He bought a sea bass, two tomatoes, two eggs, and cabbage.
He was going to prepare the simplest home-cooked meal.
He finished cooking in less than 40 minutes and placed the food he cooked onto the walnut brown dining table. Then, he entered her room again.
He drew the curtains and soon, a ray of bright sunlight shone into this small room and also splashed onto her face. He saw her pale and gaunt face under the sunlight and gently stroked her forehead.
“Yan Yan, I know you’re awake. Come out to eat, won’t you?” Even if she was angry at him and hated him, she would only have the energy to do all that after she has eaten.
Yan Yan didn’t respond and shut her eyes tightly. There was no other expression on her face, as though she was deep asleep.
Ye Hao looked outside the window and saw that the sun was shining brightly and warmly upon the earth. Sunlight during winter always had the ability to warm one up. However, his wife felt as cold as ice as she lay on the bed. Even though she had been sleeping for the past three hours, there was still no warmth on her face.
He heaved a small sigh and reached his hand into her blankets to grip her icy cold hands tightly as he tried to pass some of his warmth to her.
“I’ll walk you through this difficult time, Yan Yan…” Ye Hao suddenly pushed the blankets aside, picked her up and carried her to the dining room.
He Xiyan finally opened her eyes. She looked at him, then at the food that he had prepared but her lips were tightly pursed and she didn’t speak.
Ye Hao filled two bowls with rice and handed one bowl to her. He then put some food onto her bowl and said, “Eat up. You can do whatever you want after you’ve eaten and I’ll stay by your side.” He only wished that she would speak to him.
Then, the phone in his pocket rang and this was a call from the nanny at home.
He picked up the call and soon, he heard the nanny’s anxious voice saying, ‘Sir, Ye Snr. and Madam are here at the castle and they’ve ordered us to pack Xi Xi’s things. They even said that I was to accompany them back to Qin Garden to care for Xi Xi in the future. They said that they would be raising Xi Xi at Qin Garden from now on.
The nanny sounded a little concerned as though she was seeking Ye Hao’s opinion.
Ye Hao immediately frowned and a flash of irritation crossed his amber eyes.
“Tell them to go home and let them know that they can’t take Xi Xi with them,” Ye Hao said fiercely. He had only gone out for two days, so why must his parents stir up trouble at this time and even attempt to take his daughter away?
The nanny paused for a moment, then said, “Madam Ye said that the missus is not at home and there’s no one looking after Xi Xi in the castle, so… they want to bring Xi Xi with them to Qin Garden.”
“Nonsense!” Ye Hao abruptly rose to his feet and slammed a hand on the table, his eyes blazing with anger.
He didn’t notice that his wife. silently sitting next to him. had suddenly widened her listless eyes.
