Ye Ling looked okay on the surface but he appeared to be distracted and absent-minded. One would be able to tell he was thinking about what had happened just now just by looking at him!
Li Wazi didn’t know what happened. He looked at Ye Ling and asked out of concern, “Ling, what are you thinking about? Why does your complexion look so bad?”
Aunt Li and the others hadn’t told him what had happened this late morning when he was in the kitchen. After all, Ye Ling was there so it wouldn’t be good to mention it.
Upon hearing him, Ye Ling looked at him and shook his head. “I… I’m not thinking about anything. Brother Li, you must be mistaken.”
He didn’t want others to worry and think too much about it. He pretended to smile but his smile looked very unconvincing.
Li Wazi initially wanted to say something when he saw this but when Little Lian passed by, she lightly nudged his arm and shook her head, telling him to stop asking!
Li Wazi saw his wife behaving this way and he didn’t understand what was going on. It felt like they were hiding something from him.
Although he was curious, he didn’t continue to ask. He would ask Little Lian about it after the meal.
After the meal, Liu Duo prepared to take her afternoon nap as usual. This time, however, she asked Ye Ling to go with her. “Ling, go take your medicine first and then go take an afternoon nap for a while.”
After she finished speaking, she held his hand and went upstairs.
They were walking on the stairs and Ye Ling looked at Liu Duo, who was beside him and said gently, “Duo Er, I will take my medicine but I’m not going to take an afternoon nap. I don’t have that habit.”
When they arrived on the second floor, they went directly to Ye Ling’s room.
“Habits can be developed! Ling, you will accompany me during my afternoon nap in the future, okay?” Liu Duo changed from holding his hand to holding his arm. She swayed it around and acted coquettishly.
Err…
Ye Ling was already someone who consistently satisfied all of her requests; now that she was even acting so coquettishly, how would he have the power to reject her?
Ye Ling nodded and smiled slightly, looking like he felt helpless towards her. He said, “Okay, since Liu Duo said so I will do it!”
When Liu Duo heard him, she became so happy her dimples became very obvious.
Ye Ling took out the medicine in the drawer and then swallowed it with water.
Liu Duo waited for him leisurely and then held his arm again before going up to the fourth floor.
Downstairs, Li Wazi moved close beside Ye Mo and asked, “Mo, something feels off about Ling today. His complexion looks so bad, what happened? Is he unwell? If he feels unwell, we should quickly ask the doctor to come!”
He had always treated Ye Ling extremely well since they were young. He didn’t lose out to Ling’s own brothers when it came to how he treated him.
Ye Yang and Old Liu went to work and Liu Ran and Ye Xuan continued reading and writing. The rest were in the kitchen processing the tomato sauce.
When Ye Mo heard him, he said furiously with an angry face, “Ling was framed by her! Today, late morning, Li Chunmei…she…”
He recounted what Liu Duo had said and the pauses between the sentences were all filled with anger. If Li Chunmei were here right now, he wouldn’t be able to hold himself back and would hit her!
Ahh…
Li Wazi showed a face of disbelief. He looked over at Aunt Li and Little Lian as if asking, is it true?
Aunt Li and the others nodded and confirmed what happened.
When Li Wazi saw them nod, he flipped out and roared, “Has Li Chunmei gone crazy!”
No matter how simple of a man he was, he also didn’t feel this was an accident. Ye Ling was definitely set up!
How could Li Chunmei do something that would harm others and harm herself? What was she thinking?
His shout wasn’t any softer than Ye Mo’s shout when he found out what happened. It even frightened Little Huzi, waking him from his sleep.
“Waaah…” Little Huzi started to cry after he woke up from the fright.
Little Lian immediately washed her hands with the bucket at the side. She then went over to pick him up and tried to calm him down.
