Chapter 153: Chapter 122: Can’t I just wash it! [Big chapter, 7000 words!]_4
A real man must do what he says.
He can’t go back on his word or fail to fulfill a promise.
Anything promised to someone else must be followed through!
Of course, before making a promise, one should think it through carefully.
Pretending to be something you’re not, now that’s not acceptable!
Bai Zhentian was a bit astonished; he hadn’t realized Ye Dong was someone with such principles.
“Alright then,” Bai Zhentian nodded.
“Dad, I’ll take off my socks for you in a bit,” Ye Fan said, a little embarrassed.
This was, after all, the first time his dad had ever washed his socks since he was a child.
Truly a first in history.
“You little brat, I’ll settle the score with you later!” Ye Dong looked sternly at his own son.
What a son to trick his father!
“In that case, Dad, I’ve saved up several pairs of dirty socks, might as well wash them altogether, since you said you’d wash socks but didn’t specify how many!” Ye Fan boldly spoke up again.
Anyways, it seemed his dad had taken note of him this time.
And since he was already threatening to settle accounts with him, why not have a few more pairs of socks washed; washing one or several pairs made no difference.
Not much of a difference.
Mother Ye instantly burst into laughter!
Goodness, her son was truly fearless.
He really dared to have Ye Dong wash his socks.
Alright then!
Bai Susu covered her mouth, laughing uncontrollably.
She hadn’t expected Ye Fan to be so cheeky!
She felt envious of the way Ye Fan’s family interacted with each other.
She really liked this happy and harmonious atmosphere.
“Alright, let’s head on home!” Ye Fan said, his spirits high.
He began to pack things up.
The fish were handed over to the nanny.
The group returned and played with the little ones.
Meanwhile, Ye Dong crouched in the washroom to start washing the socks, his figure seemingly small and helpless.
Ye Fan felt a bit uncomfortable watching.
“Dad, you get up, let me do the washing,” Ye Fan said.
“No way, I lost, so I have to do it, I’m willing to accept the loss; I can afford it!” Ye Dong’s expression was quite terrible.
“Ye Fan, go look after the kids. You know your dad’s temper; once he’s set on something, not even ten oxen can pull him back,” Mother Ye walked over and spoke to her son.
Father Ye’s temperament was indeed stubborn and unyielding.
He was used to it by now.
“Okay then, Mom, Dad, I’ll go look after the kids,” Ye Fan finally left.
“Okay, I have a few more pairs of socks here, let’s wash them together!” Mother Ye, who had her hands behind her back, stretched out her hand, actually holding three or four pairs of socks.
Seeing this, Ye Dong was instantly dumbfounded!
He thought his wife had come to help him, or to persuade him, but he did not expect her to come bearing socks!
To give him socks to wash!
What kind of wife does that!
Such a surprise!
They were all apparently ready, just waiting for him to wash the socks!
That’s a bit too much!
“You mother and son are real wolves, worse than most!” Father Ye spoke, his face looking terrible.
“What, you don’t want to wash?” Mother Ye instantly became displeased.
What’s wrong with washing socks for your wife?
And to complain about it!
“I’ll wash, okay? I’ll wash the socks! Wife, please don’t get angry,” Ye Dong immediately caved when he saw his wife’s glare, meek as a chick.
“That’s more like it. Wash them well, make sure they’re clean!” Mother Ye commanded, then turned and walked away,
Ye Dong felt even more heartbroken in an instant!
No choice then.
Can’t beat my own wife, and with my son, she’s protective of him too. In this house, I’ve lost my status.
I’ve lost my status!
How am I going to live the days to come!
Ye Dong was washing socks, feeling rather unpleasant inside.
Thinking about it, really makes me angry!
Looking at the basin of more than a dozen pairs of socks, uh, just felt like… throwing them all into the trash can!
But I can’t do that.
Finally finished the washing, and hung them out to dry.
Ye Fan noticed that his dad looked pretty upset, so he immediately went to slice some fruits and brought them over.
“Dad, you’ve worked hard. Have some fruit,” Ye Fan said, trying to please.
“Hmph, at least you have some conscience,” Ye Dong glanced at Ye Fan and slowly spoke.
Then, he used a toothpick to pick up a piece of cut watermelon and began eating it.
This watermelon is so sweet!
Just taken out of the fridge, so cold and sweet, eating it is just incredibly refreshing!
“Dad, look at you,” Ye Fan also thoughtfully poured Ye Dong a glass of water and placed it in front of him.
Seeing his son being so considerate, Ye Dong felt his anger dissipate.
I made the bet during fishing, no one to blame but myself.
I mean, it’s just bad luck that I didn’t catch a big fish.
However, this brat managed to produce six pairs of socks for me to wash by himself. Are you sure this isn’t setting me up?
If it weren’t for the fact that it was my own suggestion, I would suspect that this brat was planning against me, just waiting for me to fall into the trap.
Upon deeper reflection, I dug my own grave!
Next time, can’t be so reckless again!
“You little rascal, huh, just looking at you makes me angry!” Father Ye said.
Indeed!
Just looking makes me very angry.
It’s all calculated against me.
Forget it, forget it.
Can’t be bothered with all this fuss anymore.
“Let’s go to Bo City tomorrow, have you guys packed everything?” Bai Zhentian looked at Ye Fan’s parents and asked.
“We’ve packed, we can set off tomorrow,” Mother Ye said.
“Good, we’ll rearrange and set things up once we get to Bo City!” Bai Zhentian said, looking at Bai Susu and Ye Fan.
The two of them are finally going to be together.
Seeing them happily together, as parents, we’re extremely satisfied.
“You two, you must support, help, understand, and tolerate each other, and think from each other’s perspectives, got it?” Bai Zhentian addressed them.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa, we will!” Bai Susu nodded obediently.
“I will take good care of Susu, and of course, the children too!” Ye Fan promised earnestly to Bai Zhentian.
He would be good to Bai Susu.
“That’s great, wonderful!”
Everyone exchanged smiles.
Bai Susu and Ye Fan, holding hands, gazed at each other, their deep affection unmistakable, the day they had been waiting for had finally arrived.
Along the way, they had experienced so many trials and tribulations, it was truly no easy feat.
But, it made their relationship even stronger, indestructible!
~~~~~
The next day, everyone set off for Bo City.
Bai Susu and Ye Fan sat in the nanny van with the children, and of course, they also brought the robots, Roundy, and He and Meimei, totaling four robots. Having them took a lot of the burden off their shoulders for childcare, ensuring high safety levels, while Bai Qi was driving.
The rest of the group was left to watch the house, as such a large villa surely needed someone to look after it.
Meanwhile, Ye Fan’s parents were in a car with Bai Zhentian.
Soon, by the afternoon, they had arrived at Bai Zhentian’s estate.
When everyone saw the estate, which was like a castle, they were shocked!
Of course, the ones most shocked were Ye Fan’s parents.
