Chapter 138 -138: It’s Better to Make a Call in Advance

While pondering over Ye Sihan’s thoughts, when Ye Sihan turned his face toward her, Tang Yu’s body involuntarily moved backward in fright.

She had been discovered, right? This man was too astute!

She turned and took another path to look for the doctor.

The doctor told her that Li Xue’s wound was healing well, and they had found a rehabilitation therapist.

However, the damage to her meniscus was severe, and she would have issues walking in the future.

It was the same prognosis as before.

Tang Yu’s requirement was that walking should not be a problem, just like before.

She didn’t want Li Xue to walk with a limp for the rest of her life—such thoughts only intensified her guilt and made it harder to alleviate.

Sitting alone on a bench in the corridor, she wondered what to do next.

Li Xue still didn’t know her real condition, as doctors tend to give patients a more optimistic report.

She couldn’t imagine how Li Xue would feel upon learning that her injury would affect her ability to walk in the future…

Would she regret becoming friends with her? Would she hate her?

Tang Yu wished the person with the injured legs was herself…

A shadow loomed over her, and as Tang Yu looked up from where her gaze had fallen, she saw a pair of high-end black leather shoes, distinguished yet unapproachable.

Lifting her head, even though she knew in advance who it was, the sight of those black eyes as dark as cold pools still made her shrink back involuntarily.

Standing up, “Why have you come to the hospital? I wasn’t intentionally eavesdropping on your conversation earlier. I was on my way to find a doctor and just happened to pass by…”

“I’m not holding you accountable,” Ye Sihan said, his dark eyes deep, with no sign of displeasure.

Tang Yu said, “There’s no need for you to take on the burden for what happened to Li Xue… And before, you also injured Ye Yuli. Lin Shuhuan will be upset.”

“She doesn’t know.”

Tang Yu paused for a second before she understood, “Won’t Ye Yuli tell Lin Shuhuan?”

“He wouldn’t dare.”

Tang Yu considered the possibility.

Given Ye Yuli’s temperament, he indeed wouldn’t tell Lin Shuhuan. If he did, then the fact that Ye Yuli helped her attempt to escape would also come to light.

At the moment, it seemed that Lin Shuhuan was unaware of everything.

As she was lost in thought, she felt the formidable and domineering presence of the shadow in front of her drawing closer.

Unable to help herself, Tang Yu stepped back, her knees hitting the seat. As she fell backward, something tightened around her waist, and she was pulled forward, crashing into a solid, strong chest—

“Mhm…”

“Who are you thinking about? Hm?”

Facing the aggressive black eyes, Tang Yu’s heart raced uneasily under their piercing gaze.

“Worrying about some other man?”

“Of course not! Even if I am, I am just annoyed. Since you won’t let me leave Kyoto or escape your control, why bother provoking me? It simply leads one to have certain thoughts for no reason,” Tang Yu grumbled.

Which was more serious, eloping or running away? She just wanted to be a bit more honest in her expression.

Ye Sihan didn’t look upset. His dark eyes were both deep and sharp, with the hint of a sinister smile—a danger that was difficult to read. Briefly, he raised his hand to her chin, “Aunt Lin asked me for you, what should I do?”

“You won’t agree.”

“Why?”

“You don’t like it when I’m out of your control,” Tang Yu replied.

“Indeed, a little wildcat like you, once let loose, is bound to stir up trouble.”

Footsteps were approaching from a distance, and Tang Yu uncomfortably moved out of Ye Sihan’s embrace.

It was a nurse heading their way. Even though it was their territory, upon seeing a man with such a powerful aura as Ye Sihan, she passed by with her head down and hurriedly.

“I just asked the doctor, will Sister Xue’s leg really affect her walking in the future? Can’t we get a better specialist to take a look?”

“She is in the wound recovery phase right now; we’ll decide on the next step of treatment based on how well she heals.”

Since Ye Sihan had said so, they indeed could not afford to be impatient.

Tang Yu nodded and said, “I stayed in a rental last night. Sister Xue wouldn’t let me sleep in the hospital room, and the Ye Mansion is a bit far, so… can I stay in the rental for now? Someone needs to live there to clean the place up and all. Plus, I told Uncle Wen that I would cook dinner myself and bring it to the hospital since Sister Xue likes my cooking.”

“Do whatever you want.”

Tang Yu was surprised by Ye Sihan’s easygoing response; she thought he wouldn’t agree!

After all, this wasn’t a matter of a day or two.

Though she didn’t understand the reason behind it, as long as he allowed it, that was fine.

During the day, Tang Yu accompanied Li Xue at the hospital, talking to her, feeding her, and monitoring her wound’s healing process. In the afternoon, she would go back to the rental. This routine continued for several days.

Ye Sihan did not come to look for her, nor did he force her to stay at Ye Mansion.

Having gotten used to this pattern, Tang Yu gradually settled down.

Just like usual, Tang Yu rushed to the rental around the same time every day.

It was best to have dinner ready before the four little ones came back.

Feeding the hungry little ones as soon as they returned was also a kind of satisfaction and happiness.

Tang Yu bought fresh vegetables and meat and got busy in the kitchen once she got back.

Just as she had set the table, the doorbell rang.

Thinking it was the four little ones, Tang Yu called out, “I’m coming!”

She walked to the door and pulled it open.

But when she saw the black figure standing before her, she froze, and her heart almost stopped.

“Are you that afraid to see me?” Ye Sihan stepped into the room with his long legs.

Tang Yu was pushed back two steps by his imposing presence, her face almost drained of color, “You… why did you come? I… I’m cooking.”

Ye Sihan walked over to the table, glanced at the varied dishes, “I’m here for dinner.”

“You’re eating here?” Tang Yu moved forward a few steps, trying to stop him.

“Is there a problem?” Ye Sihan turned his head, his sharply defined facial features looking particularly cutting under the threads of light.

“You’re not used to the food I make here,” Tang Yu had no other excuse for refusing.

Ye Sihan retracted his piercing gaze and sat down at the table, “Go serve the rice.”

“…Okay.” Tang Yu headed to the kitchen, her mind unsettled as she glanced towards the doorway, almost scared out of her wits.

What if the four little ones came back at this moment and ran into Ye Sihan directly?

What to do?

She served the rice and placed it in front of Ye Sihan along with the chopsticks.

She noticed her bag on the sofa with her phone inside.

She could only notify Wei Yuzhu by getting her phone and asking her not to bring the four little ones back for the time being.

“Aren’t you eating?” His deep voice sounded.

Saying so, Tang Yu headed towards her bag, “I’ll just make a call to Sister Xue to tell her I’ll be a bit late.”

“No need.”

Tang Yu stopped and looked at him puzzled, “Sister Xue will get anxious, it’s better to call ahead…”

“Someone will bring food over to her,” Ye Sihan’s sharp gaze swept over her.

Tang Yu had no choice but to return to the kitchen to serve her own rice.

Without access to her phone, how would she notify Wei Yuzhu?

Her nervousness made her hands tremble as she served the rice.

Sitting at the table, she had to appear emotionally stable, not daring to reveal any anomalies in front of the astute Ye Sihan.

As for Ye Sihan, he didn’t show any signs of discomfort eating the simple meal she prepared.

Could it be that her cooking skills were on par with the chefs at the Ye Mansion?

She had just put a spoonful of rice in her mouth when the doorbell rang, and the clock on the wall showed it was the time the four little ones usually returned.
