After eating, Zhao Xiaotian went to school, and Ye Fan bought some food alone and returned to the hospital.
When he got back to the hospital, the four little babies were already sleeping soundly, and Bai Susu was also asleep, her stunningly beautiful face filled with peace.
For the first time, seeing Bai Susu with such a sleeping expression, the sleeping her gave off the feeling of a sleeping beauty.
“Mm, you’re back.” Bai Susu opened her eyes and saw Ye Fan sitting beside the hospital bed, looking at her, his gentle demeanor slightly making her dazzled.
“Yeah, eat up. I brought you some food, and also pig’s trotter soup. I heard it can help with lactation,” Ye Fan said with a bit of embarrassment.
Although they had been together once, it was just an accident.
Talking about such topics was bound to be a bit embarrassing.
“Mm-hm, thank you,” Bai Susu’s face turned red, but she quickly regained her composure.
It’s better for the child to be breastfed, as it helps them become healthier and have much stronger immunity.
“It’s nothing, come on, eat.” Ye Fan opened the package and placed it on the cabinet next to the hospital bed. He then helped Bai Susu to sit up, leaning her against the bed and putting a pillow behind her waist to make her a bit more comfortable.
Bai Susu looked at the handsome young man before her, her eyes filled with complexity.
Their relationship seemed to be growing closer.
Of course, the child was like a fuse between them, intertwining their fates together.
But he seemed different from what she had heard about before.
She hadn’t expected him to be so considerate.
“Mm.” Bai Susu gave Ye Fan a deep look before bowing her head to eat.
Ye Fan looked at the four little ones in the baby crib next to him, each one so adorable, with their tiny faces, tiny hands, and tiny bodies, truly soft and squishy.
Even now, he felt like he was dreaming.
But he felt quite happy in the present.
“Master, that guy has called again,” Ye Fan’s phone rang at that moment.
Bai Susu also paused, looking at Ye Fan beside her, her face becoming a bit tense.
Could it be that Mother Ye had arrived?
It should be about time.
She felt nervous and a little at a loss.
As for why she felt this way, even Bai Susu herself didn’t understand.
“It’s my mother, she should have arrived,” Ye Fan took out his phone, saw that it was so, turned to look at the somewhat stiff Bai Susu, and said.
“Then go ahead and answer,” Bai Susu said.
The inevitable has to be faced, so there’s no escaping it.
Ye Fan picked up the call only to hear his mother say that she had arrived at the entrance of the hospital. Ye Fan glanced at Bai Susu and then left the ward.
Bai Susu watched Ye Fan’s retreating back, lost in thought…
She didn’t know how she should face Mother Ye.
But with things having come this far, not meeting her was impossible. She could only take it one step at a time.
On his side, as soon as Ye Fan came out, when he reached the hospital entrance, he saw Mother Ye pacing back and forth anxiously.
“Mum,” Ye Fan called out to Mother Ye and hurried over to her.
“Son, tell me, did you mess with some young lady, and she’s bearing a child for you? We can’t bully her, nor can we let her down, I’ve taught you since you were young not to bully girls, but if you did, you must take responsibility!” Mother Ye, upon seeing Ye Fan, immediately started saying anxiously.
This child really worried her to death.
She was truly frantic.
On the way in the car, she thought of all kinds of bad things.
If her son had truly wronged that girl, and if compensation was demanded, then of course they would have to compensate.
Isn’t everyone’s child a precious treasure?
So, she could understand the heart of a mother.
“Mom, you’re wondering what it’s about, but it’s pretty much the same. Anyway, now that you’re here, let’s go in and you’ll understand everything,” Ye Fan didn’t know how to explain.
These few sentences couldn’t be made clear anyway.
Besides, his mother had been through it all before, so perhaps she would understand once she saw for herself.
Maybe she wouldn’t need any explanations from him at all.
At least, that’s what Ye Fan believed.
“You naughty boy, you really make me worry myself to death. Let’s go see the girl you’ve troubled,” Mother Ye shook her head helplessly.
There was no helping it, she only had this one son and of course, she had to help him handle this matter.
After all, her son was her treasure.
Whatever the issue, of course, it was up to her, his mother, to take care of it.
“Mom, we’re going in now. Try to keep your voice down. We can’t disturb others,” Ye Fan cautioned her again.
“I know, don’t worry,” Mother Ye nodded.
She felt that her son was speaking this way probably because he was afraid of scaring the girl, so she readily agreed.
Just keeping her voice down, right?
What’s so difficult about that?
“And, Mom, you mustn’t get too excited later, you have to stay calm!” Ye Fan said as he pulled his mother inside, admonishing her once more.
He was afraid that his mother wouldn’t be able to handle the surprise later on.
After all, when he had found out, he had been so excited that he almost lost his own.
“I know, what haven’t I seen in this world? I’ve eaten more salt than you’ve eaten rice. Don’t worry, I’ve been through enough to not embarrass you,” Mother Ye rolled her eyes.
This child was really going a bit too far.
To actually teach his own mother how to behave!
Mother Ye believed that the girl’s parents were also waiting for her arrival to resolve this matter.
“Fine, Mom, I’ll stop talking, okay?” Ye Fan felt a little aggrieved.
Why was his mother being so fierce?
If she were to get fierce with Bai Susu later, he would definitely have to step in.
“Let’s go!”
The two made their way to the hospital corridor, with Mother Ye quietly following behind her son, not saying a word.
She knew that one must maintain silence inside a hospital.
What’s more, it was night already, and some patients needed to rest.
“Mom, this is the room. Remember, you have to stay calm!” Ye Fan reminded her once more as he stood in front of his mother.
He was really a bit worried.
“Enough already, I know, you’ve said it several times, nagging like a woman,” Mother Ye was getting a bit angry. Her son was getting annoying.
Always hemming and hawing, nagging like a woman!
He wasn’t like this before.
Today was indeed strange!
Could it be that he got upset by that girl’s family?
Very likely!
She didn’t expect that her well-behaved son could be riled up like this by someone else. No, she had to regain her dignity!
Without paying any more attention to her son, Mother Ye strode towards the sickroom and pushed the door open…
