Xia Siyu rely replied with an "Mm," without any emotion or expression. As she expected, the family would do their utmost to save him in order to desperately hold on to their assets. That’s good, as long as he’s alive, it’s good.
"You can find a ti to co over. Mom, Sister, and the rest of the family aren’t at the hospital all the ti. I’ve arranged for a secretary to watch over things, so you can co anyti they’re not there."
Xia Siyu snorted, "I’m his daughter; it’s only natural for to co see him. Why should I have to sneak around when they’re not there? I can co whenever I want."
She knew Xia Ju’an ant well, but she couldn’t help snapping back. On the other end, Xia Ju’an was indeed left speechless by her retort, and after a while, he nodded, "Don’t worry, Dad will be fine."
After Xia Siyu lost her temper, she did feel a bit regretful inside. Why get mad at soone who genuinely cared for her? She paused before responding, "You should take care of yourself, too. You have quite a burden on your shoulders now."
Xia Ju’an wasn’t expecting Xia Siyu to speak like that, and for a mont, he felt a bit emotional, "Okay, I know. You too."
"Mm, goodbye." After hanging up the phone, she paced around irritably for a few laps. Normally, Xia Siyu would flare up over trivial matters, eager to make a scene and disrupt everyone’s peace. But that’s when it didn’t involve her family matters. When it ca to family matters, she had a habit of hiding her feelings, bottling them up until she was about to explode.
Bo Yan actually noticed it, but seeing that Xia Siyu wasn’t rushing to the hospital, he figured Xia Youbiao’s condition wasn’t too bad, though it was still troubling. He thought for a mont and called Wei Jingjing over, "Get two cups of milk tea, double the milk foam."
Wei Jingjing was a bit taken aback. Recently, she didn’t need to monitor Xia Siyu’s diet anymore as Xia herself was determined to lose weight and get a dancer’s body. For that purpose, Xia Siyu strictly ate boiled chicken breast and boiled cabbage for two to three months. She didn’t touch barbecue or alcohol, and she politely declined milk tea.
Moreover, she knew about Xia Siyu’s father’s incident and understood that Xia was likely very upset. Xia Siyu was straightforward, and her temper flared up and subsided quickly, unless it involved family matters.
However, Bo Yan had made the request, so she couldn’t politely refuse. Instead, she went to buy a cup of milk tea that Xia Siyu used to love, with a thick layer of milk foam filling half the cup. She didn’t dare to hand it directly to Xia Siyu, so she gave it to Bo Yan to pass on.
By that ti, Xia Siyu had already paced over to the window. This was a villa the crew rented, overlooking a lake; when the window was opened, outside was a stretch of blue water. A breeze blew in. Though the weather was starting to cool, Xia Siyu still felt quite agitated inside.
Suddenly, sothing wet and cool was pressed against her cheek. Xia Siyu turned to see Bo Yan pressing a cup of milk tea against her face, "Here, your favorite Youlei."
Xia Siyu was taken aback for a mont and then took the milk tea. It was cool, with a thick layer of milk foam topped with nut particles. Sipping slightly, it had a combination of salty and sweet from the milk foam, mixed with the icy refreshing milk tea inside, with a pure and sweet tea aroma and rich milk flavor that revitalized her.
Especially the cool milk tea seed to drown out her inner irritability, suppressing that inexplicable anger.
No wonder people say, eating sweets makes you happy. Especially when both family and work weren’t going well, drinking sothing sweet could lift her spirits.
Turning to look, Bo Yan was sipping the sa milk tea. In the past, Bo Yan never liked milk tea. The few opportunities he had were because she ordered for him, and he would comply and take a sip. The wind blew, ruffling the slightly long bangs on his forehead. Back in those days, it was trendy for n to keep their hair slightly longer, giving an artistic, slightly disheveled look.
Suddenly, she rembered when she was little, asking her mom how she and her dad t. Her mom just smiled, eyes lost in mories, unsure if she felt happy or thought of it as a fateful encounter.
Back then, her dad was in the middle of a divorce with Ms. Tong. As an artistic young man, he didn’t see eye to eye with Ms. Tong, who was all about benefits, and they fought intensely.
anwhile, her mom was breaking up with her scumbag ex-boyfriend, who later spread her private photos everywhere.
All four were sowhat well-known, and they happened to et at the sa spot, roughly at a lakeside teahouse that charged more for leisure and quiet, seldom disturbed by others.
Her dad and Ms. Tong divorced, though they were actually childhood sweethearts and their marriage was arranged by both families. Initially, claiming it was love was more about their long-ti acquaintance. But even knowing soone for many years, being friends and being married are different. Their personalities, interests, and how they carried themselves were fundantally different. Initially, parents said having kids would solve it. But the birth of twins didn’t ease their conflicts; instead, it heightened them.
Both were young and headstrong back then, unwilling to yield to the other. So they agreed to divorce and discuss what’s next here.
On the other hand, her mom had transitioned from being a dancer to an actress and even won an award, being at the pinnacle of her career. She wasn’t bothered by her boyfriend’s lesser accomplishnts, but he was. He said she was "too busy," "not caring for the ho," "not cooking for him," and complained that she was always working with handso guys and would eventually cheat on him. In the end, she didn’t cheat on him, but he boldly cheated and shifted the bla onto her.
