Chapter 1183: You Used to Call Dad When You Were a Child
Yuan Yuan didn’t think he was on good terms with Ye Hao.
Ye Hao pointed at the chair beside him and said, “Please sit down. I’d like to have a chat with you.”
Yuan Yuan didn’t know how to react.
His brows creased slightly but he didn’t move to sit on the chair. Instead, he looked at the man who lay on the hospital bed and said, “Let’s speak here.”
He neither had the interest nor the patience to share a long and aningful chat with the man who laid on the hospital bed.
There was nothing much to be said between them either.
“Do you hate ?” Ye Hao asked as he looked at Yuan Yuan who was now taller than Yan Yan. Yuan Yuan was only 12 years old, so he didn’t know how he managed to grow to be so tall.
Did he hate him?
Yuan Yuan paused for a mont and blinked hard when Ye Hao ntioned the word ‘hate’.
“You’re mistaken, Uncle Ye,” Yuan Yuan said calmly. “I don’t hate you and there’s no reason for to hate you.”
Yuan Yuan ant what he said because it was true that he no longer hated Ye Hao.
“Oh...”
Ye Hao frowned in surprise and studied Yuan Yuan’s calm expression.
Yuan Yuan seed to be much more mature compared to his peers and Ye Hao wondered why Yuan Yuan sounded more like an adult than a rebellious teenager. How did Mo Yixuan manage to raise him to be this way?
“I ca over to thank you,” Yuan Yuan said as his lips curved into a smile. “Thanks for saving my mother.”
Ye Hao was speechless and he stopped himself from saying whatever he was about to say.
He paused for a mont before he changed the topic and asked. “You used to call ‘dad’ as a child. Do you still rember that?”
His gaze softened as he thought back to how Yuan Yuan used to be so adorable when he was a child. He used to lean against the crook of his neck and call him ‘dad’.
Yuan Yuan looked at him calmly and imdiately shook Ye Hao out of his reverie when he said, “No, I don’t.”
He said detachedly, “I don’t rember anything that happened before I turned three.”
Yuan Yuan was lying. He still rembered certain things that happened even before he turned three, and he clearly rembered Uncle Ye hitting him as a child. However, this was all water under the bridge and it no longer mattered to him.
Ye Hao studied Yuan Yuan’s face and he was very disheartened to see that Yuan Yuan’s expression was even more aloof than his.
He found it very hard to draw closer to this child. There seed to be a huge icy mountain between them.
“Yuan Yuan...” Ye Hao hesitated and he blinked hard. His voice was much softer than before as he said, “I would like to apologize even though you might not rember what I did.”
Ye Hao had never forgotten the fact that he had once laid a hand on this child. He had been so angry that he had lost control over his emotions and this led to him doing sothing that he never thought was possible.
Recently, he found himself deeply regretting his failure to handle the various conflicts that happened in his marriage. More importantly, he regretted his failure to control his emotions which resulted in him doing things that he thought were unforgivable.
He rembered hitting Yan Yan on several occasions and the worst incident was when he hit her at the hospital. He couldn’t forgive himself for what he did to her even until this day.
Yuan Yuan acknowledged his apology calmly and pretended not to know what Ye Hao was referring to.
“Uncle Ye, I’ll head out if you’re done talking,” Yuan Yuan said. He didn’t want to reminisce about the past with Uncle Ye, neither did he want to think about the past.
Yuan Yuan turned and headed toward the door but Ye Hao stopped him. “Wait a minute, Yuan Yuan.”
