“Mister Ye said that if he touched you, we were to break his hands.” One of the bodyguards said expressionlessly. These were people who wouldn’t even bat an eye when breaking someone else’s arm.
He Xiyan’s face turned paler. She looked at the man who had already climbed back up to his feet. His jaw was clenched so tightly that his lips were pale and his fists were clenched tightly as though he wanted to fight. She still found that she could not bear to see him beaten up.
“Yixuan, please leave. If you want to travel, you should bring Xia Yuwei along.” He Xiyan shouted at him.
She turned back and stretched out her arms to block the two bodyguards.
“He did not do anything to me. Let’s go. Ignore him.” She tugged at their sleeves and pulled them along.
All she wanted to do was to return to the hospital. She didn’t want Ye Hao to worry. As for the words that man had said earlier, if he had told her those words in the past, she would have been so happy that she wouldn’t be able to sleep for a few nights. However, she could only sigh helplessly now. It was too late!
The two bodyguards escorted He Xiyan back. They left the man alone in the parking area with his face flushed, glaring angrily at their backs, along with the gawkers.

In the evening, Xia Yuwei drove her new red Ferrari back home, packed to the brim with her shopping.
After shopping and playing for the entire day, she was exhausted and her feet ached.
The moment she entered the house, she threw out her orders to the maids Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan.
“Bring the things in my car over here.” She kicked off her 8 CM high heels and could not even be bothered to address them by their names.
The two 20-year-olds, Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan exchanged a glance and swallowed their bitterness. Mister Mo must have been blind to marry someone as rude and arrogant as their young mistress.
They went extremely reluctantly to carry Xia Yuwei’s shopping back into the house and they needed to make two trips before they could bring everything inside.
She had truly bought a lot. However, with the exception of several children clothes, everything else was for herself. She did not even buy a single thing for her husband. They thought of how Miss He would always come back with something for their master and the madam every time she went shopping in the past and wondered how could this woman be so selfish.
Xia Yuwei went into the kitchen and sat in front of the dining table as she waited to be served.
“Mum, I’d like to ask you something. Why was He Xiyan unable to give birth?” She asked her mother-in-law who emerged from the kitchen with her dinner.
She only heard that that woman was not able to give birth but she was not sure of the exact reason. Most importantly, she wanted to make sure that that woman truly did not bear a child.
Li Qin frowned and placed at the dishes on the table. The mention of her ex daughter-in-law’s name clearly upset her.
“Her ovaries seemed to have issues and were not able to produce mature eggs. Her menstrual cycle was also very irregular. In any case, she won’t be able to give birth.” Li Qin said with her head bowed. She felt extremely upset at the thought of this. She should have stopped Yixuan from marrying that woman. That woman ultimately took so much money away from the Mo family.
Xia Yuwei looked slightly surprised.
“Oh….” She pretended to be very shocked.
“Why did you ask?” Li Qin looked at Xia Yuwei.
“It’s nothing. Mum, He Xiyan seems to have adopted a kid who looks just a few months older than Little Ye.” As she spat out those words, a wave of resentment hit her. She could not help but feel annoyed when she thought of how He Xiyan’s adopted son looked better than her own son.
Her dislike for her ugly and crybaby son grew even more.
Li Qin patted her daughter-in-law’s shoulder.
“Alright, Yuwei. Stop talking about her. She was probably jealous that you could bear a child and since she couldn’t bear one herself, she spent money to adopt one.” Li Qin could guess what happened when these two women met and also understood why Yuwei asked such a question.
“That should be it!” Xia Yuwei’s lips curled into a smile. Then she picked up her phone and sent her husband a message.
“Yixuan, are you not done with your meetings yet? When would you ever be done with them? Are you not coming home tonight?” The resentment in her messages was clear.
