“Sit down.” She moved rightwards a little and motioned the man to sit down.
At this time, no expression seemed to be visible on her face. As the saying went, there was nothing more sorrowful than the death of one’s heart, which probably referred to this.
Ye Hao’s face was dark and gloomy. The anger in his eyes faded a little, but he became more irritated in his heart.
“Just now… I’m sorry.” He went to He Xiyan, offering his right hand to her.
However, He Xiyan, like a conditioned reflex, quickly tilted to the left, avoiding the man’s hand which was about to fall on her shoulder. She even moved again and sat on the edge of the sofa.
She also did not know what he meant by saying sorry. Was he sorry for himself or for beating Yuanyuan just now?
But what was the meaning of everything, and what was the meaning of saying sorry? Besides, Yuanyuan was just a kid who knew nothing. Children didn’t need apologies, nor could they understand that.
Ye Hao looked at his hand in the air. He gave a bitter laugh, his fingers even shaking violently.
He Xiyan looked at him and said, “You don’t need to say sorry, Ye Hao. Things have already happened after all.”
What was the use of saying sorry? Now she just wanted to say a few words with him peacefully, to separate quietly, to stop quarreling and to stop resenting each other.
Ye Hao approached her a little, sitting beside his wife. There seemed to be a mile between them.
He paused for a while and explained, “I didn’t mean to do that to Yuanyuan just now. I didn’t mean to hurt the child.” He just hadn’t controlled his emotions. Even he himself couldn’t understand how he threw the child down just now.
When Ye Hao said this, a trace of shame flashed through his face. He, however, looked closely at He Xiyan, hoping to see a little emotional change on her face.
He Xiyan shook her head, the smile on her lips quite bitter.
“It doesn’t matter, Ye Hao. Yuanyuan is still very little. He’ll forget what happens today in a few days. So you don’t have to feel guilty or stressed. Besides… thanks to your care, Yuanyuan was able to grow up to one year old in this castle. For the child, you are his benefactor, so no one will blame you. I will not blame you, either.” After that, He Xiyan did not say any more.
What she said was also true. The man in front of her was not the father of her child. Although she used to want him to treat her child as his own, yet how could it be possible? From the beginning to the end, the people in Ye family had never accepted Yuanyuan deep in their hearts. It was she who was foolish enough to think that her child could grow up safely and happily in Ye family.
It was all her own wish.
Ye Hao frowned suddenly. What He Xiyan said was like a needle penetrating into his heart. Besides, the more she spoke like that, the more uncomfortable he became. He even felt like that his internal organs were going to explode.
“About Yuanyuan… I’m sorry that I didn’t help you.” He said sorry again, not only because he hurt the child impulsively just now, but also because he had not helped her gain the child’s custody and let her watch Mo family take away the child.
In fact, their conflict actually arose after their child went to Mo family.
He admitted that he really had no deep feelings for the child. After Xixi was born, he gave all his love to his daughter. But he had no other way then.
