Chapter 408
Qiao Feiyu didn’t know what to say, so she simply walked over, crouched down in front of her, "Aning, come back with me. Can’t you and I have a proper talk?"
Ye Ning ignored her, still quietly carving on that piece of jade.
Qiao Feiyu saw this, grew anxious, and reached out her hand, but Ye Ning gripped the carving knife in her hand, "Aning, even if we take a step back, my brother is your life-saving benefactor from years ago. Are you really going to cut ties with my brother over such a trivial matter?"
Life-saving benefactor?
As soon as these words came out, those delicate wrists that had been moving over the jade finally paused and then stopped.
Ye Xiaobao stood across and saw this, a frown quickly forming on his young brow, "Auntie Qiao, my mom isn’t angry at Uncle Lin; she’s just been feeling unwell these past few days." noveldrama
"Is that so?"
Qiao Feiyu turned to look at him, "Is she sick?"
The chubby child nodded, "She had a fever last night. Auntie Qiao, please tell Uncle Lin that my mom will look for him once she’s better."
His voice was tender and childish, and his chubby little face was the epitome of innocence and cuteness.
Qiao Feiyu saw this, and although she didn’t quite believe it, in the end, she didn’t press further, "Alright, I got it. Then, Aning, you rest well here these couple of days, and when you feel better, come over to my house for a meal. It’s my mom’s birthday, and you must come, okay?"
What she meant was clear; it was also the birthday of Lin Yebai’s mother.
Ye Ning looked at her arm with a dazed gaze, finally moved, and smiled, "Alright, I’ll definitely come when the time comes."
Qiao Feiyu heard this and immediately smiled happily!
Finally, she had completed the task her brother had given her. As long as Ye Ning went on the birthday, couldn’t her brother have a chance to explain? To clear things up with him?
Qiao Feiyu left, content...
Once she left, the atmosphere in the room quieted down again. Ye Xiaobao stood there, looking at his mother who was sitting there, his mother whose face had lost all color. At that moment, the hand that Auntie Qiao had just held was now pricked by the sharp carving knife, drawing a curving red line.
"Mom, you’re bleeding."
"Ah? It’s nothing, nothing!" Snapping back to reality, Ye Ning immediately scrambled with her bleeding hand to the washroom.
Ye Xiaobao stood there, watching the washroom door his mother had hurriedly closed. After staring at it for a moment, he suddenly put down the pen in his hand and, holding the jade his mother had been carving, he trotted out of the room with his little legs.
"Grandma Zhang, are you going to buy groceries this afternoon?"
"Yes, what would Xiaobao like to eat?"
"I don’t know, can I go take a look with you?" asked the child, dressed in cute little denim overalls, and as soon as he spoke, he waddled over to busy Grandma Zhang, who showered him with affection.
Who wouldn’t love such a beautiful and adorable child?
Grandma Zhang didn’t think twice; upon hearing he wanted to go to the supermarket with her, she agreed without hesitation, "Then okay, make sure to put on your little hat. Grandma Zhang doesn’t have a car; we’ll have to take the bus."
The bus?
The bus is good, right?
Hearing about this mode of transportation, the child quickly went back to put on his small LOOK cap, and then cheerfully ran over, "I’m ready, Grandma Zhang. I want to tell you, I know how to take the bus too."
