Chapter 414: Unable to love, hate separation (Twenty-three)
Life returns to peace.
Ye Yao continued his daily routine: exercising in the early morning, working during the day, and staying at home to accompany Zhang Qiufeng after get off work.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
"Qiu Feng, you should eat more too."
At the dinner table at home, Qian Hai picked up food for Zhang Qiufeng without any hesitation.
That affectionate look actually made Ye Yao feel a little disgusted.
Without saying hello, he got up and went back to his room.
Zhang Qiufeng explained helplessly, "Yaoyao is trying to lose weight and basically doesn't eat at night."
Qian Hai smiled and didn't seem to care at all, "We are all family, how can I argue with a child? Eat quickly, you are too thin, you should gain some weight."
Ye Yao listened to the voices outside and felt very annoyed.
Ever since her mother agreed to get engaged first, Qian Hai came over almost every other day, and his attentiveness even made her feel it was excessive.
But she couldn't say anything.
If she hadn't known her mother's thoughts for a long time, looking at this harmonious scene, she might have really thought that her mother had found her true lover.
Half an hour later, there was a knock on the door.
Ye Yao, who was drawing, was interrupted. Her mother never knocked on the door when she came in, so she sat up straight.
"Come in."
Sure enough, the person who walked in was Qian Hai.
He walked over to her, carrying the freshly washed fruit.
"Yaoyao, I saw that you didn't eat dinner. I know you are trying to lose weight. Eat some fruit."
The tone is kind and caring.
"Thank you, where's my mom?"
Ye Yao looked outside the door.
"She was washing dishes. I said I would do it, but she insisted that I take a rest. We are almost a family, yet she is still so polite."
When talking about family, Qian Hai deliberately raised his voice.
Ye Yao smiled perfunctorily. Although she did not agree with this marriage, the problem was not with him, so she would not vent her anger on him.
There was really nothing much to say to him, so she picked up the pen again and continued with the design drawing.
"What are you drawing? It's pretty nice."
Qian Hai's voice sounded again, and he didn't seem to intend to go out.
Ye Yao's eyes flickered slightly under his lowered eyelids.
“Just draw.”
"I heard from your mother that you are now an apprentice in a good shop and you are adapting well. In fact, girls don't have to work so hard. It's better to find a good family and marry as soon as possible."
Qian Hai was still smiling, but there was a hint of perfunctoriness in his smile.
Ye Yao frowned. Not to mention that he and her mother didn't have a substantial relationship now, even if they really got married in the future, it would not be his turn to interfere in her affairs.
"Aren't you engaged to the Li family in the compound? That family is quite well-off. I think you should really seize the opportunity and get married as soon as possible to avoid any more complications."
"Uncle Qian, please don't worry about my marriage."
Ye Yao's voice was tense. If it wasn't for her mother's sake, she would have scolded the person long ago.
"How can I not worry? Only when you get married can your mother live with me in peace."
Qian Hai finally stopped smiling and looked at Ye Yao with cold eyes.
Ye Yao narrowed his eyes, put down his paintbrush, and directed his cold gaze directly upwards.
"So you're afraid that I'll drag you down?"
"How can you be a burden to me? You are a burden to your mother."
Qian Hai emphasized seriously, subconsciously putting on the attitude of an elder.
