Fang Yunshu’s heart tightened in an instant. She was genuinely afraid that she might suddenly hear He Yuyao’s piercing scream. If that happened, she had no idea how to face He Yuyao.
However, after a long while, she didn’t hear any screams from He Yuyao. It seemed that Ye Xiaofei had safely taken refuge in the bedroom.
“I don’t hurt anymore,” Fang Ling’er’s crying suddenly stopped.
He Yuyao was a bit puzzled. How could this little girl stop crying all of a sudden? She hurriedly asked, “All? Then, tell Auntie, where did it hurt earlier?”
“I don’t hurt anywhere now, Auntie. You can go find Mommy,” Fang Ling’er said, pushing He Yuyao away.
Fang Yunshu quickly interjected from inside the room, “Yuyao, you don’t need to bother with her. Kids cry for a couple of moments after a fall.”
“Oh, you scared me there,” He Yuyao finally breathed a sigh of relief and then went straight into the bathroom.
“Huh? What’s with the clothes on the washing machine?”
Fang Yunshu knew that Ye Xiaofei had taken the clothes out when he went out just now. So, she quickly threw her wet clothes on the washing machine.
Pretending to be clueless, she asked, “What about the clothes on the washing machine?”
He Yuyao was puzzled, “When I went out just now, it seemed like there were men’s clothes here, and now they’ve turned into women’s clothes, and they’re wet?”
Fang Yunshu replied, displeased, “Where would there be men’s clothes here? 1 think you’re going crazy thinking about that Ye ‘Miracle Doctor’ all the time.”
He Yuyao seemed to believe her, sighing lightly, “Maybe you’re right. My mind is filled with thoughts of him all day. I probably had a hallucination just now.”
Earlier, Fang Yunshu didn’t want He Yuyao to stay in the bathroom, but now, she was afraid to let her go out. So, she deliberately chose He Yuyao’s favorite topic to talk about.
“When you said you were held by that Ye ‘Miracle Doctor,’ he intentionally suggested that, right?”
“Yes!” He Yuyao exclaimed excitedly as if she had been injected with chicken blood. “I was so stunned. I had always been the one talcing the initiative, but he never gave me a chance. But this time, he actually proposed such a request. I even doubted if I had misheard him.”
Fang Yunshu sneered, “You’re truly naive. Men have plenty of tricks up their sleeves. Do you know anything about his love life? How many women do you think he has?”
“He might have his own women, and that’s normal. A man as exceptional as him will naturally attract the opposite sex. My goal is to stand out among his many women and eventually win him over,” He Yuyao said confidently.
Fang Yunshu was utterly speechless, “You’re seriously obsessed.”
“I’m fine with that,” He Yuyao felt a little tired standing and said, “Hey, aren’t you done washing yet?”
“I’m done now. 1 got distracted chatting with you,” Fang Yunshu replied.
When Fang Yunshu wanted to come out, she faced a bit of a dilemma. Because when she entered, she didn’t really plan to take a shower, so she didn’t bring any spare clothes. The clothes she was wearing got soaked just now, and now, if she wanted to leave, it would mean going out naked.
“You’re such a slowpoke. I’m tired. 1’11 lie on your bed for a while.”
Fang Yunshu immediately took the lead and came out naked, saying, “Go lie on the sofa; I’ll go to the bedroom to change clothes.”
“Go ahead and change; why are you afraid of me seeing?” He Yuyao sneered, then smacked her lips and said, “With a figure like yours, even if I were a woman, I’d want to touch it a bit. If I were a man, 1 couldn’t resist it. You really should find a man. Such a waste of your beautiful face and great figure.”
“I don’t care.” Fang Yunshu coldly snorted, then stormed into her own bedroom, about to close the door.
“Hey, why are you closing the door?” He Yuyao followed.
“Hey, I’m changing clothes.” Fang Yunshu replied anxiously.
“Well then, go ahead and change. I’ll lie down for a while.” With that, He Yuyao pushed past Fang Yunshu and went straight into the room, lying down on the bed.
Fang Yunshu’s heart raced as she looked around but couldn’t spot Ye Xiaofei. It seemed that Ye Xiaofei must have hidden in her daughter’s room, which was a relief.
Fang Yunshu followed He Yuyao into the room. As she walked, she used a towel to wipe off the water droplets on her body and said, “You can be really annoying.”
He Yuyao complained, “Fang Yunshu, you’ve changed. You used to be so eager for me to accompany you, but now you always act impatient.”
“You’re just being too sensitive because you have a man now, can’t you see?” Fang Yunshu said coldly, reaching out to open the wardrobe.
She had just opened it when she quickly shut the door with a crisp “thud.”
“What are you doing?” He Yuyao jumped in surprise, asking in confusion.
Fang Yunshu’s lips twitched nervously. She had been relieved not to see Ye Xiaofei earlier, but she had never imagined that he was now hiding inside the wardrobe..
