Ye Li had just taken a step out of bed when her legs gave way and she collapsed.
The man pounced on her and became her cushion.
At that moment, she nestled in his arms, idly scrolling through her phone on the floor, looking utterly content.
They completely forgot that the two of them were still on the ground.
"..."
Ye Li scrambled off Fu Yanci, stammering, "I'm so sorry..."
With just this simple movement, Ye Li began to breathe heavily, and her vision started to blur.
Upon seeing this, Fu Yanci sat up and sat with her on the floor for a while before carrying her into the bathroom.
After washing her face, brushing her teeth, applying lotion, and returning to bed, Ye Li felt as if she had just run three kilometers.
Suddenly remembering that she had promised to play with Xiaobao, Ye Li looked up abruptly, "Where's Xiaobao?"
"Grandmother has been sent back."
When they discovered that Xiaobao was missing, they searched the entire old house from top to bottom.
Madam Fu almost had a heart attack.
When she learned that Ye Li had mistakenly thought it was Xiao Bao who had fallen into the icy lake, and that she had jumped in after her, Old Madam Fu was about to come over, but Fu Yanci stopped her.
Yesterday, upon learning that Ye Li had started having a fever again, Madam Fu sent the driver over with a lot of food and drinks, and also picked up Xiao Bao to take care of Ye Li.
I remember my grandmother saying on the phone, "I don't know what good things you did in your past life to win over such a wonderful wife as Xiaolizi."
Fu Yanci's eyes were amused. He reached out and ruffled the girl's hair. "Lie down properly. I'll bring you something to eat."
Ye Li nodded obediently.
Fu Yanci returned quickly, carrying a tray with a bowl of nourishing chicken porridge and several side dishes in red, green, yellow and white.
Ye Li, who had initially felt she had little appetite, suddenly found herself very hungry.
"You can tell at a glance that Aunt Lan made it..."
Ye Li wiped her hands and said while eating, "When I was little, whenever I was sick and couldn't eat, Aunt Lan and my mother would cook for me. Aunt Lan would cook the dishes and my mother would make the porridge. Later, the porridge that Aunt Lan made tasted exactly the same as the porridge that my mother made. My mother also learned Aunt Lan's signature dishes."
Fu Yanci laughed, "Were you often sick when you were a child?"
Ye Li paused, a hint of embarrassment in her eyes. "I wasn't often sick. But, when I was little... I was so naughty!"
From elementary school to high school, Ye Li attended prestigious private schools.
She attends classes during the day, studying diligently on everything from Chinese and Western culture to music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
After school, there were boys playing on skateboards and freestyle bikes on the playground, people fencing and shooting in the stadium, and people racing horses at the horse farm. She joined in all of them.
He got carried away and lost control, but he fell off the horse and broke his arm.
I wasn't skilled enough and fell off the skateboard, twisting my ankle.
He gets injured every now and then.
Knowing nothing about Ye Li's childhood, but hearing her say this reminded him of the mischievous girl she was as a child. Fu Yanci couldn't help but laugh and said, "Didn't your father-in-law care about you?"
"There's a wise saying in my family!"
Ye Li said with great enthusiasm, "Happiness comes first!"
Dad said it's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about, as long as you're happy.
The mother felt sorry for her first, then sighed, and when she spoke, she told her to be careful, and even more careful.
Even if she came back covered in injuries the next time, they didn't say a word about not being allowed to do anything again.
She couldn't help but smile whenever she thought of that home. But as she smiled, she suddenly remembered that her father was gone, her mother was sick, and she could never go back.
Ye Li lowered her head, and large tears streamed down her face.
