Chapter 63: Chapter 60: The Matter of Sending People Away
"You two should both go back and take care of your own things. I’m fine now, don’t waste your ti staying around ."
After catching up with her daughter, Xu Li urged them to leave like this. She was already sending them away, honestly hoping her daughter would stay longer, but Ye Fan was still around. Naturally, she was reluctant to face Ye Fan in such a situation.
So, she could only send her daughter away, and naturally, Ye Fan would follow along.
She was really hungry now, like a cat clawing at her stomach, and could only relax to eat and drink after sending her daughter and Ye Fan away.
She wanted to act as if nothing had happened, but having climaxed twice in front of Ye Fan, how could she possibly pretend?
"Mom, what are you saying? You always complain that we never have ti to stay with you. Now that we finally can, you’re sending us away." Chu Biyao pouted in grievance.
"Mom, the work can wait. You don’t need to worry. Just having us around you would be great after you’ve been through such an illness." Chu ngyao muttered softly.
"There will be plenty of ti to be with
in the future. I know you both are busy, so don’t linger around just to get in my way. It’s enough that you think of
as your mom. Don’t delay your work for , or I’ll feel guilty."
Xu Li continued to usher them out, unable to voice her real thoughts, and could only try different ways to have her daughters leave first.
"Mom, are you upset with us for not being with you lately and saying it out of spite? You never used to send us away before. Don’t worry, even if the sky falls, we’d stick to your side." Chu Biyao leaned her head on Xu Li’s shoulder, winking at her sister, confidently adding, "Sister is just like . This ti we’ll stay with you enough and won’t leave you alone."
"Exactly, Mom, whether you’re in the mood for a stroll or shopping, we’ll stay with you every step of the way." Chu ngyao proclaid loudly.
Both sisters figured that since their mother had just co back from the brink of death, they had to make her happy. Seeing Xu Li sending them away, they thought she was angry. A re glance exchanged between them cented their resolve to stick around and cheer their mom up.
"Alright, spare
from your shopping trips. One’s more famous than the other, attracting attention everywhere you go. It’s impossible to have any peace. I might as well enjoy so solitude instead." Completely helpless, Xu Li seriously said, "Just go back and don’t make
worry."
Realizing their mother was earnest and not truly angry made the sisters feel slightly relieved, but they were puzzled by their mother’s unusual insistence on sending them away.
"Mom, how about this: after we eat together, my sister and I will head back to the villa. How does that sound?" Chu ngyao suggested, knowing everyone was hungry after the hospital visit and believed having a al together would help her parents get to know Ye Fan better.
"Eat what? If you’re hungry, go back to the villa to eat. I’m not hungry." Xu Li spoke against her will.
"Gurgle!" Right after she spoke, Xu Li’s stomach growled, leaving her extrely embarrassed.
"Hehe, Mom, I can hear your stomach growling. Yet you say you’re not hungry." Chu Biyao laughed heartily, carefree.
"Your dad and I still have so matters to attend to, so don’t get in the way." Xu Li admonished with a stern face.
"Mom, that excuse won’t convince us. What kind of matters could you and Dad possibly have? Are you still sour about driving Ye Fan away? Now that he saved you, are you too embarrassed to face him? Let
tell you, Mom, don’t worry about him. I guarantee he has no complaints. If he dares to say anything against you, I’ll teach him a lesson." Chu Biyao reassured, patting her chest.
Chu ngyao thought it made sense. She knew her mother had a tough exterior but a soft heart. Her attitude towards Ye Fan must have changed by now, but she had not yet apologized for driving Ye Fan away from the villa. Besides, knowing her mother, she probably wouldn’t apologize anyway, so her current reaction was understandable.
With all that in mind, and seeing their mother starving herself to send them away just to avoid facing Ye Fan, the sisters hesitated no longer and decided to leave imdiately.
"Mom, rest well, we’ll be leaving now." The sisters reluctantly said.
They didn’t want to leave, but their mother was starving. Would it make sense to stay and watch her starve?
Obviously not. To give their mother a bit more freedom, the sisters had no choice but to leave, taking Ye Fan with them.
"Go on, hurry and leave." Xu Li said bitterly, feeling that her daughters could never understand her inner awkwardness.
Chu Zhongtian was chatting casually with Ye Fan, adopting a scrutinizing attitude of a future father-in-law towards a son-in-law, asking questions about Ye Fan’s background, to which Ye Fan could only respond with polite evasion.
"Dad, Mom’s hungry, hurry and make so food." Chu Biyao naturally ordered.
Ye Fan’s expression relaxed slightly. Being bombarded with questions by Chu Zhongtian had made him feel a bit tense and uneasy.
Chu Zhongtian glared at his daughter, pretend sneering, "When you’re not ho, it’s always your mom who cooks for . Now you’re back and you’re treating
like a servant. You two go and cook, and bring out my treasured good wine. I plan to have a good drink with Ye Fan."
He had many topics he wanted to discuss with Ye Fan and had no ti to entertain his two daughters.
Seeing her father enjoying the conversation, but noticing Ye Fan’s slightly uncomfortable deanor, Chu ngyao realized it was likely her father’s probing that made Ye Fan feel a bit awkward.
"Dad, we’re heading back to the villa. You stay with Mom." Chu ngyao said.
"What?"
"You’re leaving?"
"Do you have any conscience? No matter how busy work is, can’t you see the situation now?"
"Your mom just ca back from the brink of death, and instead of keeping her company, you’re thinking of leaving. Really, you two are such ungrateful children. I should have had a son. Raising you two daughters hasn’t been heart-easing."
Chu Zhongtian started nagging, expressing endless dissatisfaction with his daughters.
The sisters, rather enjoying their father’s complaints, looked at each other with bemused expressions.
The bedroom door was open, and Xu Li heard her husband’s words and imdiately chided, "Old fool, I’m the one who let them leave. How can you randomly scold my daughters?"
Chu Zhongtian was dumbstruck, feeling a bit dizzy from the revelation. What was going on here?
Upon reflection, he understood: his daughters leaving at this ti must have a reason. His wife had likely sent Ye Fan away before, and now, after being saved by Ye Fan, was too embarrassed to face him, hence letting her daughters leave with Ye Fan.
"Face, is it that important? If he ends up with one of our daughters, can you really avoid seeing him forever?" Chu Zhongtian pondered.
