âTian Ye, you should go home.â The suddenly booming cold male voice made Tian Ye feel increasingly awkward.
âBut youâ¦â
âMy wife is here.â Xiao Yebai said this to her in an indifferent tone, but his gaze was on Mo Weiyiâs face.
The implication in his words was clear.
Tian Ye clenched her fists, and after a while, she found her voice and said in a dignified and elegant manner, âIn that case, I should go. Yebai, donât forget what the doctor said, rest well and do not take your health lightly.â
Xiao Yebai sat there expressionless, and when he heard these words, his gaze was still fixed on Mo Weiyi, showing no reaction.
But Mo Weiyi was looking at Tian Ye.
Meeting her clear and pure cat-like eyes, Tian Yeâs embarrassment was evident.
She should not have come.
She really should not have come.
But she hated herself for having a soft heart, rushing over when she heard from Zhan Yao that Xiao Yebai was alone in the hospital without anyone to take care of him.
Even though Xiao Yebai hadnât said a word since she arrived, she accepted it willingly.
She even though that it might be because he was ill.
Before entering the ward, she had gone to the office to ask the doctor about Xiao Yebaiâs health. Xiao Yebai had, for several years, suffered from a stomach ailment, and this time he had severe gastric bleeding. He needed to recuperate carefully; his diet, rest and medication were all part of the prescribed treatment.
Just now she wanted to feed him some water, but as soon as she sat down, Mo Weiyi arrived.
And then he started talkingâ¦
How ironic.
Tian Ye took a deep breath, picked up her bag and coat, and was about to turn around and leave whenâ¦
âTian Ye.â Xiao Yebaiâs voice suddenly called out again.
Tian Ye felt a sudden jolt in her heart and hurriedly looked at him.
The man on the sickbed was cold and indifferent, his voice was so calm that it lacked even the slightest inflection, âI didnât know Zhan Yao would call you. I will make it clear with him so that such misunderstandings wonât happen again.â
Tian Ye: ââ¦â
She was lost for words
She nodded her head and hurriedly left.
The sound of her heels echoed in the hallway, sounding scattered and chaotic.
But she couldnât care less.
Rushing outside, she quickly left without looking back.
Rong An glimpsed the womanâs retreating figure and moved forward to gently close the door.
**
In the hospital room.
The door was opened and then closed again.
Mo Weiyi stood there until a deep male voice suddenly rang out.
âCome here.â
Mo Weiyi didnât respond.
âWeiyi.â Xiao Yebai looked at her delicate but cold face and opened his thin lips, âI am thirsty; could you come and give me some water?â
Mo Weiyi thought about the scene she had witnessed when she entered the room just now and couldnât help but respond sarcastically, âThirsty? Why donât you call Tian Ye back?â
Xiao Yebai, without changing his expression, said, âWeiyi, are you jealous?â
Mo Weiyi retorted, âXiao Yebai, as my husband, do you think itâs right to be alone in a room with another woman? Have you thought about the feelings of your wife? Donât forget, we have not divorced yet!â
âI didnât know she would come.â The manâs response was still indifferent.
âHuh.â Mo Weiyi sneered, âDidnât know, and yet you let her feed you water?â
âI didnât get the chance to drink.â
âSo you mean, if I didnât come, you would have drunk it?â Mo Weiyi directly pointed out the flaw in his words, âXiao Yebai, let me clarify this to you. As long as we are not divorced, you, Xiao Yebai, will always be my man, Mo Weiyiâs man! You cannot do anything to wrong me. Regardless of your feelings towards anyone else, you must control yourself!â
The room fell silent.
Only after Mo Weiyi finished did she realize thatâ¦she had swore.
Actually, she did not have much aversion to swearing.
In high school, she and Su Wanwan rebelled intensely.
Compared to rebelling activities such as going to nightclubs, learning to smoke, learning to drink, fighting, wearing all kinds of bizarre clothes, and so on, swearing was really trivial.
But she always maintained the image of a sweet and adorable little princess in front of Xiao Yebai. Even when she was caught in a bar once, she still spoke to him in a soft and gentle voice.
This was the first timeâ¦
Looking at Xiao Yebaiâs deep, black eyes, Mo Weiyi suddenly felt like she had nowhere to hide.
She knew that she was not calm right now, but she couldnât help it; she couldnât control her anger.
As expected, Xiao Yebai looked at her and said, âWeiyi, you are jealous.â
This time, it was a definitive statement.
Mo Weiyi immediately turned her face away.
She ignored him.
The room returned to silence.
But soon, Mo Weiyi turned back and asked, âXiao Yebai, how far have things progressed between you and my cousin?â
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yebai, who had been expressionless since she entered the room, finally showed a change in his expression.
He squinted his eyes, as if assessing, âYou know about this?â
âYes, even though you did everything you could to hide it from me, I found out anyway. Thatâs why I want to ask you now, how far have you gone with Qu Yunyao? What have you done together? What happened in the garden that day?â
âWe did nothing.â
These five words were Xiao Yebaiâs reply to her pressing questions.
This succinct response was, of course, not going to satisfy Mo Weiyi.
She quickly asked, âThen why did you hide it from me?â
Xiao Yebai looked at her, his gaze deep and calm, without the cover of glasses, his inky eyes were like the deep sea at midnight, inscrutable and unpredictable.
