The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex

Chapter 1180: Wanted To Talk With You

Ye Hao talked about his biggest need like he was child. As for his other needs, no one could meet him now.

He Xiyan frowned and looked at Ye Hao.

“No way. The doctor told me that you can only drink some light bone soup and porridge these next few three days,” she said.

After that, He Xiyan went to the refrigerator and took out a bowl of pork chop soup. She then heated it in the microwave for a few minutes.

The hot soup came out soon, but it had not been cooked well since it was bought in the canteen of the hospital.

“You just make do with it. I’ll try to make some myself tomorrow.” He Xiyan scooped a spoonful and handed it over to Ye Hao’s mouth, watching him drink, then she had another spoonful.

He was now like a disabled patient, lying on his side.

Ye Hao was hungry. He didn’t care about the taste at all, soon finishing a bowl of pork chop soup. The soup, however, did not really make one feel full. He still felt hungry after eating, so he asked He Xiyan to feed him another bowl of rice porridge.

After that, He Xiyan helped Ye Hao clean the corners of his mouth and said, “Rest first. I’ll see if Xixi is awake.”

He Xiyan was worried about her daughter, thinking that she should also be hungry now.

Turning around, He Xiyan walked out of the ward.

However, the moment she came out, she heard some aged voice coming not far away.

“Yanyan, wait a minute.”

It was Xia Jingshu, her former mother-in-law, who stopped her.

He Xiyan stopped and turned to look at the old woman, her previous mother-in-law.

Xia Jingshu pulled He Xiyan’s sleeve, and then pointed to the end of the aisle not far away, indicating for He Xiyan to push her over.

He Xiyan frowned, looking at Xia Jingshu with doubts. After hesitating for a few seconds, she still pushed her over.

“What’s the matter?” When they were at the end of the aisle, He Xiyan asked doubtfully.

She hadn’t talked to her former mother-in-law in a long time. Even with occasional calls, she simply asked her about Xixi.

Xia Jingshu looked up at her former daughter-in-law standing beside her, a bitter smile hanging around the tight corner of her mouth.

“Nothing, I just wanted to talk to you.”

He Xiyan’s eyesight was still. She was at a loss of what to say.

She didn’t know what they could talk about between them.

“Yanyan...” Xia Jingshu suddenly held the hand of He Xiyan, and said after a pause, “Mom know that I have done something wrong before.”

Xia Jingshu could not help sighing. At this time, however, He Xiyan suddenly stared at Xia Jingshu with her eyes wide open.

She heard the “mom” she had just uttered.

She didn’t understand what she meant. She used to call her mom, but it was nine years ago and she was no longer her daughter-in-law.

“Aunt Xia, what are you talking about?”

He Xiyan looked at Xia Jingshu with doubts.

Xia Jingshu also felt that she herself was a bit abrupt. She smiled awkwardly, and then withdrew her hand. Then she continued, “Aunt wants to apologize to you. I shouldn’t have persuaded A Hao to break up with you.”

Xia Jingshu was old, but she did not forget what happened nine years ago. She still remembered that she persuaded her son to give up this marriage rather than talk him around when He Xiyan and her son were in conflict.

He Xiyan smiled silently and said, “Aunt Xia, it’s something many years ago. I’ve almost forgotten. You don’t have to cling to it.”

He Xiyan didn’t bear any hatred towards the old woman in front of her, nor did she before. Compared with her previous mother-in-law Li Qin who had abused her, Xia Jingshu didn’t do anything which made her hate her guts.
