Chapter 67 - 67 I Want to See My Daughter_1
“Yixue, Qin Haowen is really no good, we should avoid contacting him much in the future.” Ye Xiaoning drove and advised Xu Yixue, having a faint feeling that Qin Haowen, having been snubbed by Xu Yixue this time, would definitely not let the matter rest.
“It’s fine, it’s a lawful society now, we’ll be okay as long as we’re cautious.” Xu Yixue rubbed her forehead, speaking wearily.
Soon, the car arrived at Xu Yixue’s house in Zhonghai, the two got out and returned to the house, and there were no conversations throughout the night.
The next morning, Xu Yixue woke from her sleep to find her head a bit groggy. At the auction the night before, she had chatted with several media tycoons and had a couple of glasses of red wine which, along with some troubling thoughts, had led to some insomnia, so she felt quite uncomfortable when she got up in the morning.
Before long, Xu Yixue got out of bed, finished washing up, and happened to run into Ye Xiaoning, who was wearing a Hello Kitty apron. Over the past few years, Ye Xiaoning had not only taken care of Xu Yixue’s safety but had also taken on cooking duties, proving to be an outstanding combination of bodyguard and nanny.
Ye Xiaoning, coming from a special forces background, had very regular habits, so she got up for morning exercises just after six o’clock, and by seven o’clock, she was already busy in the kitchen.
Xu Yixue got up at seven-thirty and spent ten minutes washing up. By the time she ran into Ye Xiaoning, breakfast was already prepared.
“Yixue, why didn’t you sleep a bit longer? You don’t look very energetic,” Ye Xiaoning said with a touch of concern.
“I’m tired, but I’m having trouble sleeping, got a lot of worries lately.” Xu Yixue touched her radiant cheek and asked nervously, “Do I look very pale? Looks like staying up late really is a woman’s worst enemy.”
“Just a little bit, but you’re so beautiful that even when you look pale, it just makes me feel more compassion for you,” Ye Xiaoning teased Xu Yixue with a smile, then took off the apron from her waist and said, “Yixue, come and eat.”
“Thank you, Xiao Ning.” Xu Yixue followed Ye Xiaoning to the dining room and began to have breakfast.
During breakfast, Ye Xiaoning noticed Xu Yixue was quite distracted, so she asked, “Yixue, are you worried about something today?”
“Xiao Ning, I used to always have meals with that mischievous Tongtong, and now that she’s not here, meals seem so quiet, I’m not quite used to it.” Xu Yixue put down her chopsticks, speaking with a touch of sadness.
“Now that you mention it, it’s true. Our meals don’t have any energy without her,” agreed Ye Xiaoning with a nod.
“Xiao Ning, let’s hurry and finish eating, go see Tongtong,” Xu Yixue said, brightening up at the thought of Tongtong and delicately chewing on a piece of bread.
“Alright, I miss that little girl dearly, too,” a glint crossed Ye Xiaoning’s eyes.
A few minutes later, the two quickly wrapped up breakfast. Xu Yixue touched up her makeup to cover her tiredness and then she and Ye Xiaoning hurried out the door.
In the car, Xu Yixue dialed Xu Fan’s number. At that moment, Xu Fan was sitting on the bed, cultivating “Chaos Sky Opening Decision.” It took four or five rings before he answered the phone.
“Xu Fan, are you there?” Xu Yixue asked calmly on the phone.
“Mhm,” Xu Fan’s reply was more succinct.
Hearing Xu Fan’s response, Xu Yixue felt speechless inside. Xu Fan really was a typical stoic man. Couldn’t he show a bit more enthusiasm when such a beautiful woman called him early in the morning? What kind of answer was just a “mhm”?
“Tongtong hasn’t woken up yet, right?” Xu Yixue continued.
“Mhm.” Xu Fan replied briefly once again.
Yixue suddenly clenched her neat incisors tightly, thinking with resentment, could it be that Xu Fan is in the late stage of being a heterosexual male cancer patient? Is it so reluctant for him to say an extra word to this Miss?
Yixue’s bosom rose indignantly, and her face also turned livid. The more she thought of Xu Fan’s lazy face the angrier she became. That Xu Fan was just too detestable, relying on the fact that he was Tongtong’s dad, he didn’t care about her at all.
Hey, why should I want Xu Fan to care about me?
Ptui, ptui, ptui.
Yixue suddenly felt a burning heat on her face and immediately cursed at herself internally, Xu Fan is a hardcore, straightforward guy, I don’t fancy him at all, Yixue, you are a goddess, stay calm.
“What’s wrong with you?” Xu Fan, hearing that Yixue on the other end of the phone was silent for so long and that her breathing had become more rapid, asked in concern.
“Hmph, open the door for me early, I want to see my daughter!” Yixue said with authority over the phone and, without giving Xu Fan a chance to respond, she hung up.
Ye Xiaoning, hearing Yixue’s angry tone, joked teasingly toward her, “What exactly did Xu Fan say to make our stunning beauty Yixue so angry?”
“Say what? I wish he would say something, he’s like a block of wood, that dead log Xu Fan!” Yixue said, and with resentment, she punched the pillow next to her twice as if it were Xu Fan.
“Haha, our Ice Queen Yixue also gets ticked off by others, Xu Fan must be quite something.” Ye Xiaoning joked.
“You little brat, I’ll tear your mouth off!” Yixue feigned an attack toward the driver’s seat.
“Be safe, I dare not anymore!” Ye Xiaoning quickly begged for mercy.
On the other hand, Xu Fan, looking at the phone Yixue had hung up on, shook his head helplessly and muttered to himself, “Yixue comes over to disturb Tongtong early in the morning, not letting my baby sleep in.” His tone was full of doting for his daughter.
Less than half an hour later, Yixue arrived in front of Xu Fan’s villa at Star of Zhonghai.
Lin Fan happened to be at the door at that moment and saw Yixue getting off the car with an angry look on her face.
Even with a stern countenance, a beauty is still a beauty, every frown and smile, a resplendent view. Although Yixue’s face bore an angry expression, it had a different charm in Xu Fan’s eyes.
Today, Yixue was not wearing her OL outfit, but a pair of white shorts and a shirt, revealing her long, fair and delicate legs appealingly. The lack of her usual domineering CEO aura was replaced by a touch of feminine gentleness and sweetness, which made Xu Fan unable to look away.
“What are you looking at, you pervert!” Yixue noticed Xu Fan’s gaze had not moved from her legs from the start and with a red face, she scolded him coquettishly.
“Er, aren’t you showing them for me to see? Really can’t figure you women out!” Xu Fan mused to himself.
Yixue didn’t pay him any attention and stormed inside Xu Fan’s villa after angrily opening the door.
Xu Fan shook his head and followed her inside.
