Chapter 87: You Have Such a Day
Zhong Yi was smart, and he came to realize what Xu Youyou meant at last.
“I have told you that I won’t give up my child. You’re his mom, and you won’t do it either. As for us, we can give our child a complete home if you like.”
In comparison with the first time when he confessed love to Xu Youyou, Zhong Yi felt he had expressed his intention quite clearly.
Xu Youyou got stunned for a moment, and then smiled perfunctorily.
“A complete family? Zhong Yi, do you know what it means? Is it possible?”
His family looked down upon her, and she disdained to live a wretched life.
They two were not matched.
“You get so many choices that suit you well, and there are many women who want to give birth to babies for you. So why do you waste your time on me?”
Xu Youyou curled her lips, staring at Zhongyi directly.
Their eyes met in the air, and there were a trace of smile in Zhong Yi’s eyes, which touched the bottom of Xu Youyou’s heart.
“Then why can’t you give birth to a baby belonging to us?”
“I have to go now.”
Xu Youyou just ignored Zhong Yi’s question, and ran to the room the latter had prepared for her in a hurry. She was afraid things would get out of control if she went on.
…
Someone was tapping at the door.
“Come in.”
You Ze put down the book in his hand. He had been in the study flipping through the book for over half an hour, but hearing vaguely the cries of Shiyao from her bedroom, You Ze couldn’t concentrate on the book at all.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“You don’t look well.” Xiao Qing leaned against the door in her loose pajamas with her hair untied.
“Alas…” You Ze rubbed his hair impatiently, and closed his eyes wearily.
“What’s wrong with her?”
“It’s OK. She just needs time to accept you.” You Ze smiled helplessly.
Pretending to be surprised, Xiao Qing waved her hand and said, “Maybe I’ve frightened her, haven’t I?”
“Do you need me to explain it for you?”
Xiao Qing got speechless. She didn’t cold-shoulder Shiyao, but the girl just rejected her first instead.
“No, she is just used to being self-willed. It’s time for her to calm down.” You Ze smiled faintly, and thought it might get worse if he sent Xiao Qing to meet Shiyao at the moment.
“Well, OK. I’ll leave now.” Without any topic to go on with, Xiao Qing didn’t want to ask for a snub as well.
“Wait!” Xiao Qing was about to turn around and leave when You Ze called her.
“What’s up?”
“Do help me protect her, please!”
“Be at ease! I won’t be headstrong like her.” Xiao Qing cracked a joke naturally, and You Ze didn’t say anything more.
While she was going downstairs, Xiao Qing’s legs got slightly weak suddenly, and she didn’t know why on earth she was here. You Ze seemed to care about the girl very much, but could she herself completely accept Shiyao?
After Xiao Qing left, You Ze wanted to go back to the bedroom to have a look, but he found the door had been locked from inside by Shiyao.
There was a slip of paper stuck in the crack of the door. You Ze pulled it out, and he flushed with anger immediately after having a look.
“To You Ze and other strangers- Don’t disturb me!”
Good. The girl dared to clamour with him! He would let her regret!
Shiyao got tired and fell asleep with a pillow in her arms. She had cried for so long, and it seemed as if she had shed all the tears of the past over twenty years.
Outside the door, a sad man stood in a daze for two minutes, and finally decided to sleep in the study for the night.
When Shiyao got up the next day, it was exactly 8 in the morning. Hearing the sound of starting a car from downstairs, Shiyao ran to the window immediately even without wearing her shoes. You Ze was going to the company, and Xiao Qing was saying goodbye to him in a suit of sports clothes. Shiyao just cast a glance at them, and then closed the curtain.
Shiyao got a stomachache due to anger as soon as she thought that the two ate breakfast together when she was still asleep.
“Bastard! You dare to ignore me, and I’ll do so as well!”
Seeing the slim figure of his girl by the window, You Ze showed a glimmer of a smile.
“Bastard! You Ze, you’re such a bastard! Ah!” Shiyao got so angry that she jumped around on the bed. The barking of Duoduo came from outside.
Shiyao opened the door immediately without thinking, and found Duoduo was squatting at the door with an eager look.
“Good girl…” Shiyao held Duoduo in arms, and her belly growled with hunger suddenly.
“Aunt Liu! Please prepare breakfast and bring it up. Prepare some for Duoduo too!”
“Alas…”
Seeing Duoduo, Shiyao got a little happier at once.
“You’re the best.” Shiyao gave Duoduo in her arms a deep kiss, and then returned to her room.
Xiao Qing saw Shiyao’s behavior from downstairs. Such a naive girl.
Since You Ze slept in the study last night, he didn’t rest well. However, although he looked a little tired, he was still handsome, with a sense of idleness.
“Huh? Did you get kicked out?” As soon as Zhong Yi met You Ze, he couldn’t help laughing at the latter. Finally he got a chance to tease You Ze!
“You have such a day!” Zhong Yi laughed himself into convulsions.
“What?” You Ze asked deliberately.
Zhong Yi pretended to feel pity for You Ze, and straightened the latter’s collar. “Stop pretending. Shiyao kept talking to Xu Youyou on the phone for two hours last night. Guess what! She cried so pathetically…”
Zhong Yi was given a glare and shut up immediately.
Having seen You Ze, Xu Youyou nodded politely without showing any emotion.
“You don’t seem to be doing well.” You Ze irritated Zhong Yi on purpose.
Looking at the figure of Xu Youyou, Zhong Yi clenched his fists slightly.
“Better than someone that has to sleep in the study!”
Zhong Yi replied excitedly. It was uneasy for him to catch a chance to laugh at You Ze, so how could he just let the chance slip away!
“What did she say last night?” You Ze couldn’t help asking.
“Do you want to know? Then how about having a drink tonight with me?” Zhong Yi said with an evil smile.
“Don’t you have to pursue your girl?” You Ze asked.
Zhong Yi pouted with embarrassment, “Well. They just talked about someone’s endless romantic affairs. Shiyao could hardly bear it.”
“When did I have many romantic affairs? You know Xiao Qing. I asked her to come to protect Shiyao, but I suffer many complaints for it instead.”
You Ze turned on his phone. Looking at the smiling attractive girl on the screen, he sighed.
“Have you mentioned Zhao Xuehan to Shiyao?”
Zhong Yi moved close to You Ze suddenly, and asked in a low voice.
“Why should I mention her?”
You Ze stood beside the window, frowning. Zhao Xuehan was only his former lover, and now that he had married Shiyao, he wouldn’t do anything or have any thought that might hurt her.
“As far as I know, Shiyao knows your ex-girlfriend.” Zhong Yi said slowly.
“Who has told her?” You Ze turned around, and actually, an angry look crossed his face.
“I… I don’t know. You can ask her…”
Having felt the atmosphere got tense, Zhong Yi excused himself to slip away in a hurry.
You Ze didn’t know girls’ thoughts well. Even if Shiyao got to know the past stories between Zhao Xuehan and him, then so what? She herself got ex-boyfriends as well, right? In addition, they two had lost contact for many years, and the scar in his heart had healed gradually.
“I warn you. Don’t make any arbitrary suggestion to your buddy, and hurt Yaoyao!” Seeing Zhong Yi walk out of You Ze’s office, Xu Youyou said seriously.
Zhong Yi raised his eyebrows. Huh, the woman finally changed the way she treated him!
“If I listen to you, what benefit can I get?”
