When Ye Qing heard Xi Quan say that, she knew that Xi Quan had misunderstood, so she explained, "I didn't mean to blame you."
"I know, but I can't let you continue to work so hard, I..."
Unintentionally bringing up the past wasn't meant to make Xi Quan feel guilty or remorseful, but since it had been brought up now, it reminded Xi Quan of those times again. Ye Qing didn't want to have to think about what she might say that would make Xi Quan feel guilty every time she spoke to him in the future; it was too tiring for a couple to talk like that.
Ye Qing thought she should take this opportunity to explain things to Xi Quan properly: "It was indeed hard and tiring back then. To say that I don't blame you at all would be a lie. But it's all in the past now, and I know exactly what happened back then, so I've already let it go. You know, I'm not someone who always looks back. I'm used to looking forward. I always let bygones be bygones. Even with Xi Yue or Ye Shuang, I don't hold grudges anymore. Why would I make you feel guilty about the past?"
Xi Quan looked at Ye Qing without saying anything.
Although he didn't say anything, Ye Qing could tell that Xi Quan was hesitant to speak. Recalling what she had just said, Ye Qing roughly understood why Xi Quan was acting this way. So Ye Qing added an explanation: "I mentioned the past not to make you feel guilty, but to show that I can take care of the child by myself."
Xi Quan understood what Ye Qing meant, but still felt that Ye Qing was going through too much trouble: "Actually, we can look for more..."
“I know we can find someone else to help take care of the child or perform the ritual, but didn’t you say that many older people who have similar surgeries to Zhang’s don’t recover very well? To help her get proper exercise, it’s better to keep the house busy, or rather, very busy, so that it can stimulate her to recover quickly.”
Although Ye Qing spoke casually, Xi Quan could tell from her words that she had a lot of good intentions.
Although he heard Ye Qing say that he had signed the surgery notification form for Zhang Sao, Xi Quan didn't even think that Ye Qing wanted to forgive Zhang Sao. After all, too many things had happened recently, and Xi Quan was also overwhelmed.
Ye Qing's attitude made Xi Quan suddenly realize something.
To be honest, Xi Quan wouldn't say whether Ye Qing forgave Zhang Sao, but he knew that if Ye Qing forgave Zhang Sao, Ye Qing herself would feel much more at ease.
After all, if she doesn't forgive him, Ye Qing will only magnify the inappropriate things Zhang Sao did and said, and his resentment towards Zhang Sao will only grow stronger.
If you forgive Zhang Sao's actions, then they won't seem so unacceptable to her own daughter.
After all, when biological mothers and daughters with a decent relationship argue, as long as it's not something irreconcilable or unforgivable, they usually let it go after the argument, and neither of them holds a grudge.
Ye Qing felt strange because she still had expectations for her mother. So whenever something happened, her emotions were magnified, which led to her growing dissatisfaction with Zhang Sao.
It's fine as it is now.
Although Xi Quan felt that Ye Qing's actions were a bit too harsh on him, Xi Quan also knew that he couldn't go against Ye Qing's wishes at this time, because Ye Qing's actions also required a great deal of mental preparation.
“Okay, then I’ll do as you say.” Xi Quan agreed: “Then I’ll have my assistant find someone who can help with postpartum care for now.”
Ye Qing nodded. She thought that if there were no unexpected events, Zhang Sao would have surgery tomorrow and recover in a month. Then she could find a new caregiver, so that Zhang Sao wouldn't get discouraged when she saw someone else helping her.
Xi Quan originally wanted to ask Ye Qing if she was going to forgive Zhang Sao, but after thinking about it, he decided against it and didn't ask.
It's better to know these things than to ask them directly; asking them would just seem too deliberate.
"When is the surgery?" Ye Qing didn't realize what Xi Quan was thinking at this moment and asked the question she wanted to know.
Xi Quan: "The doctor said tomorrow."
Ye Qing nodded, indicating that she understood.
Although Ye Qing didn't know what Huang Fei thought or felt about Zhang Sao, she felt that Huang Fei wasn't that disliked her, otherwise he wouldn't have been running around the set so much those past few days.
So, knowing that Huang Fei might care, Ye Qing hesitated when thinking about calling Huang Fei to tell him about Zhang Sao's surgery.
Because she cares, Huang Fei would probably come back again if she found out, which wouldn't be good for her since she just rejoined the filming crew.
After hesitating for a while, Ye Qing still couldn't decide whether to make the call.
Ye Qing couldn't figure it out herself, so she asked Xi Quan. Xi Quan thought for a moment and said, "It's not appropriate not to tell Huang Fei at all, but I understand that you're worried about affecting Huang Fei's work. Let's wait until after the surgery tomorrow to tell Huang Fei."
Although it wasn't exactly a perfect solution, Ye Qing acquiesced to Xi Quan's suggestion.
The extortion incident had nothing to do with Huang Fei, but because of her own connections, Huang Fei was also implicated. Although she was innocent, it must be admitted that this incident affected the filming process of the crew.
Ye Qing didn't know how much the film Huang Fei was currently shooting had invested, but Ye Qing was a businessman and understood business matters. He knew that every day the production team was delayed, money was being spent. Not to mention anything else, the daily cost of the crew's meals alone was a considerable expense.
If Huang Fei takes another leave of absence because of Zhang Sao's surgery, the production team can understand. However, if there are any other projects in the future, they will probably hesitate when they think of Huang Fei.
The day after Zhang's surgery, Ye Qing didn't wait outside the operating room. This was mainly because Xi Quan wouldn't allow it, and also because Ye Qing needed an IV drip during the day. Furthermore, Xi Yike had been moved from the neonatal intensive care unit to the ward, and the ward couldn't be left unattended. What if someone took the baby away?
So only Xi Quan went to wait outside the operating room, but because he was worried about Ye Qing, he ran back and forth between the two places.
Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang's surgery was a success.
After hearing the news of the successful surgery, Ye Qing called Huang Fei and told him about Zhang's surgery.
Huang Fei understood Ye Qing's intention. Although she was a little worried, she didn't ask for leave. She wanted to finish filming as soon as possible so that she could help Ye Qing with some of the burden.
Ye Qing was hospitalized, and Zhang Sao also underwent surgery. To outsiders, Xi Quan must have been extremely busy. In fact, Xi Quan was indeed busy, but he also had many people helping him.
After learning that Ye Qing was hospitalized, Ye Shuang frequently visited the hospital, helping Xi Quan share a lot of the burden.
Ye Qing was finally able to be discharged from the hospital. She felt that Xi Quan would be much more relaxed after returning home, at least he could get out of bed and wouldn't be lying in the hospital bed every day.
However, some people didn't want Ye Qing and his group to have an easy time.
