“What’s with the attitude?” The one who asked this was Fu Linglong who just came from the study.
Upon seeing her son standing aggressively in front of Ye Fanxing, she quickly came over and pulled him away.
“Gu Yuzhe, I’m warning you, if you dare bully her, I won’t spare you!”
She had only left for a few moments, and Gu Yuzhe had dared to call her by name.
Are the stakes this high!
That day at the Fu Family home, Gu Yuzhe’s behavior hadn’t been great.
Fu Linglong had invited him over today so he could have a chance to improve his image.
But in the end…
What a way to infuriating!
Fu Linglong looked at Ye Fanxing with concern, “Xingxing, are you okay?”
Ye Fanxing glanced at Gu Yuzhe, his fury palpable before her, “I’m fine,” she said.
Fu Linglong glared at Gu Yuzhe, “This brat, always stubborn!
This is your aunt, how many times do I have to tell you?
The next time I hear you calling her by name, I’ll have your father discipline you.”
“Mother!” Gu Yuzhe was left speechless.
Mother certainly favored one over the other to an extreme degree.
Before Ye Fanxing appeared, Fu Linglong had always called him darling.
Now, whenever Ye Fanxing’s matter come up, she would only yell at him.
It was Ye Fanxing who betrayed him, but now, everyone in the family was doting on Ye Fanxing.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, he choked down his indignation and walked out.
Fu Linglong shook her head helplessly, then said to Jingyu and Ye Fanxing, “I will head back first.”
After they left, only Ye Fanxing and Jingyu were left in the living room.
Jingyu looked at Ye Fanxing, asking, “What were you two just talking about?
Why was he so angry?”
“He wanted to snatch my cake, and I didn’t give it to him,” Ye Fanxing made up an excuse.
Jingyu: “…”
Ye Fanxing came over and pushed his wheelchair, “Uncle, I will take you back to your room to rest.
You must be tired after working all day.”
Ye Fanxing was also ready for bed.
The day’s events had been utterly distressing.
When they reached the room, she looked at Jingyu and handed him his sleepwear.
She had learned some things back when Mr.
Chiang was looking after him.
Upon seeing her intentions to help him change, Jingyu said, “It’s not necessary, I can manage on my own.”
“Really?”
Jingyu said, “You should go rest.”
“Ok…
alright then!” After all, he was a grown man.
It would indeed be inappropriate for her to help him change.
Ye Fanxing then left.
Returning to her room, she took a bath.
While bathing, she pondered over the events of the day.
When Chiang Sen entered the room, Jingyu had just finished bathing and sat in his wheelchair, dressed in his sleepwear.
Chiang Sen came over, looked at Jingyu and asked, “Sir, you wanted to see me?”
“Do you know where Xingxing went today?” He had asked Chiang Sen to find out earlier.
Chiang Sen said, “She had a part-time job at Lihao Hotel, only for two days.
She might go there tomorrow.”
Jingyu listened but did not respond.
As Chiang Sen conversed with him further, there was a knock on the door.
Ye Fanxing’s voice echoed from outside, “Uncle, have you gone to sleep yet?”
Chiang Sen headed out to see Ye Fanxing standing by the door, having already bathed and changed into her pajamas.
“Mr.
Chiang.”
Chiang Sen responded, “Jingyu hasn’t slept yet, please come in!”
No matter what Ye Fanxing does, even if it’s just stepping out for a short while, Mr.
Fu is always concerned.
Chiang Sen could only feel helpless.
Having learned his lesson, he now treated Ye Fanxing like the lady of the house, showing her the same respect he did to Jingyu.
As soon as Chiang Sen left, Ye Fanxing entered the room.
Jingyu was already in bed.
He looked at her, “What’s the matter?”
She had assumed that she would go straight to bed after bathing.
Having just bathed, Jingyu looked almost unrealistically handsome.
Ye Fanxing felt oddly nervous, “No, nothing.
I just…
wanted to see how you were doing.”
Originally, she just wanted to see if he needed any help, but it seemed that he was already settled for the night.
