Ye Li and Aunt Lan had been worried that Li Xueqing would collapse again after learning the truth, so they did everything they could to keep it a secret.
So engrossed in their acting, the two of them forgot for a moment that Ye Mushen had already left.
Aunt Lan would bake bread and make soy milk in the morning, and at the same time, brew a cup of black coffee.
When she brought the coffee out of the kitchen and saw the empty sofa, she realized that her husband was no longer there. She hurriedly poured out the coffee, afraid that Li Xueqing would see it.
When Ye Li returns home, she will call out, "Dad, Mom, I'm home!" and then hug Li Xueqing and act coquettishly, saying that she missed her dad.
Everything was shattered when Li Xueqing appeared at the banquet hall tonight.
There is no despair.
It did not crash.
Li Xueqing was in much better condition than they had imagined.
Seeing that Ye Li had finished washing up and changed into her pajamas, and was carrying Da Bai downstairs to indicate that she wanted to sleep with her mother tonight, Li Xueqing smiled and pointed at Aunt Lan, "Ah Li, you're late."
"Aunt Lan, you go back to your room to sleep. It'll be your turn tomorrow night!"
Ye Li firmly stated that she wanted to cut in line.
Aunt Lan smiled and shook her head, "That won't do, queue in a civilized manner!"
As she spoke, Aunt Lan pushed Ye Li upstairs, "The last time Master Fu came to our house, we treated him like a guest, and you kept calling him 'little uncle' to annoy him. Today, it's the first time Ye's new son-in-law has officially visited, how can you leave him alone?"
"Yes, Ali..."
Li Xueqing chimed in, "Think about it, if it were your first time going to the Fu family, and you were unfamiliar with the place, and Yan Ci wouldn't stay with you and would leave you alone in your room at night, how would you feel? Go on, Mom's fine, I'll chat with Aunt Lan and then go to sleep..."
The door closed, and the living room was dimly lit.
Ye Li stood at the door with Da Bai in her arms for a long time, then let out a soft sigh and turned to go upstairs.
The door opened with a gentle push, and Ye Li entered, bumping into Fu Yanci's arms.
Because of the backlighting, the man's eyebrows and eyes appeared deep-set, and his gaze was gentle.
He was wearing the navy blue loungewear that his mother had given him when he last came to visit.
She still carried a faint fragrance from her bath.
Fu Yanci gazed at her with deep eyes, as if at this moment, she was the only one in his eyes and in his heart.
Looking back at him quietly and gently, Ye Li said softly, "Fu Yanci, I'm so tired, I want to cry, but I'm also a little happy."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man released his hands from behind her waist.
He picked Ye Li up and carried her back to the bedside, gently placing her back on it. Fu Yanci pulled the blanket over them both, gently stroking Ye Li's back as he said, "Ah Li, I understand!"
I'm tired because I've kept it a secret for so long; it's exhausting.
I want to cry because no matter how realistic the acting is, my father will never come back.
I'm happy because what I was worried about didn't happen.
Li Xueqing did not have a relapse or a breakdown.
She could even comfort Ye Li and Aunt Lan, saying that she was fine.
She even had the mood to tease Fu Yanci, saying that Ali had been naughty since she was little, and the last time she called him "little uncle" was to deliberately make him angry, so he shouldn't take it to heart.
"Ali, Mom will be fine, don't worry..."
“Okay!... Fu Yanci, thank you for doing so much for me, for Mom, and for the Ye family. If Dad is watching from heaven, he will be very pleased. Seeing how good you are, he definitely won't want to be the most difficult father-in-law in history.”
"real?"
"Really... Fu Yanci, have I ever told you that I think I'm a little..."
"Ah Li?"
The girl's voice grew softer and softer.
Fu Yanci looked down again, and the girl in his arms had already fallen asleep against his chest.
Even with her eyes closed, her brow was still tightly furrowed, as if she were dreaming of something that made her sad and distressed.
I really want to ask her, Ah Li, what do you want to say?
But all I could see in my mind was her pitiful, tear-streaked face.
After gazing at the girl's peaceful sleeping face for a long time, Fu Yanci lowered his head, placed a kiss on her lips, and turned off the light.
The room was completely quiet.
The sound of the girl's even, long breaths filled my ears.
Her breath carried a faint fragrance.
The scent was clearly a light pear blossom fragrance, but it seemed to dissipate the sandalwood scent on his body.
Fu Yanci felt an unprecedented peace in his heart.
In her mind, she heard Li Xueqing's gentle call: "Yanci, come home."
And, the girl's bright eyes: Fu Yanci, let's go home!
In the darkness, Fu Yanci let out a soft breath.
The feeling of coming home... seems pretty good?
