Novel Bin Chapter 202 - 202: Are You Dating Someone
“After you drop me off at the entrance of the residential area, you can just go straight home.”
Fang Yunshu said it coldly, sitting in Ye Xiaofei’s car after work.
Ye Xiaofei was humming a song, but when he heard this, his smile froze, “Wasn’t 1 supposed to accompany Ling’er today?”
Fang Yunshu replied, “He Yuyao is coming to my house today.”
Ye Xiaofei immediately became unhappy. “She’s so carefree. I’ll call her right away and give her something to do so she can’t come today.”
Fang Yunshu quickly stopped Ye Xiaofei and said, “She has been saying she wants to come for a long time. We are good friends; 1 can’t always stop her from coming. Besides, she won’t come frequently.”
“Oh.” Ye Xiaofei looked displeased.
Seeing Ye Xiaofei’s attitude, Fang Yunshu felt a sense of guilt and coughed lightly, saying, “You can come over tomorrow.”
Ye Xiaofei nodded dejectedly, “My sweet daughter will probably be disappointed today. I’ll chat with her online later.”
The car arrived at the entrance of the residential area. Fang Yunshu got out of the car and stayed there for a while, watching to make sure Ye Xiaofei didn’t suddenly come back.
Fortunately, Ye Xiaofei didn’t return. Fang Yunshu went back home relieved. She informed Fang Ling’er that Ye Xiaofei would come tomorrow because He Yuyao was coming today.
Fang Ling’er pouted and ran straight back to her room.
Fang Yunshu could only shake her head helplessly. The relationship between her daughter and Ye Xiaofei was too close.
After a while, He Yuyao arrived with a bag of snacks.
He Yuyao didn’t act like a guest at all. As soon as she entered the house, she looked for Fang Ling’er everywhere, saying, “Where’s my little sweetheart? Look at what 1 brought for you.”
“She’s in her room,” Fang Yunshu said, pointing to Fang Ling’er’s bedroom.
He Yuyao barged in directly and said to the sitting Fang Ling’er, “Little sweetheart.”
Fang Ling’er didn’t even look at He Yuyao and didn’t react at all.
He Yuyao was taken aback. She knew Fang Ling’er had autism, but they used to be quite close. Now she was being incredibly cold, with a hint of disdain in her eyes. He Yuyao hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong, little sweetheart? Why are you ignoring me?”
Fang Ling’er hummed and continued to ignore He Yuyao.
He Yuyao felt embarrassed and walked out.
In the kitchen, she found Fang Yunshu and frowned, asking, “Yunshu, has Ling’er’s condition worsened? Why is she ignoring me?”
Fang Yunshu twitched her mouth and said, “Her condition is fine. She’s just throwing a little tantrum at me. You don’t have to mind her.”
He Yuyao said excitedly, “She’s throwing tantrums at you? That means things are getting better.”
“Yeah, it’s pretty good.” Fang Yunshu changed the topic and said, “Don’t just wait for food here. Come and help me.”
“I’ll go find the slippers first.”
Soon, He Yuyao came back, tilting her head and staring at Fang Yunshu.
“What’s with that look?” Fang Yunshu suddenly felt uneasy.
“Fang Yunshu, do you have a boyfriend?” He Yuyao grabbed Fang Yunshu’s arm and stared into her eyes.
“No!” Fang Yunshu answered firmly.
He Yuyao said fiercely, “No? Then why do you have men’s slippers at home?”
Fang Yunshu cleared her throat and said, “Oh, you mean this? Ling’er has always fantasized about her Daddy coming back. So when she saw the slippers for sale that day, she insisted on buying three pairs, including one for her Daddy.”
“Oh…” He Yuyao continued to gaze into Fang Yunshu’s eyes, still somewhat incredulous.
Fang Yunshu said, “If 1 had a boyfriend, would I keep it a secret from you? It’s not a big deal, nothing to hide, right?”
“Well, I guess not.” He Yuyao pondered for a moment before nodding and releasing Fang Yunshu. As they picked vegetables together, she said, “Actually, you should find a man too. Having a man who makes you miss and care for him is a pretty nice feeling.”
“It’s not that easy to find someone.” Fang Yunshu shook her head and added, “Besides, my job keeps me very busy, and I have no time for that now.”
“Now you’re impressive as the president of a multinational corporation. There should be countless men wanting to pursue you. You don’t need to worry about that. It’s me… oh.” He Yuyao let out a long sigh.
“What’s wrong?” Fang Yunshu could tell what was going on just by looking at her expression, but she still asked with concern.
Pouting, He Yuyao said dejectedly, “I’m making no progress at all. It’s been days since 1 last saw him.”
Trying to sound casual, Fang Yunshu said, “If it’s so troublesome, just give up. If love requires so much effort, what’s the point?”
“No!” He Yuyao shook her head firmly. “I won’t give up on such a great man. Even if I have to do everything I can, I’ll make him mine.”
Fang Yunshu’s mouth twitched slightly, feeling a hint of unease in her heart.
He Yuyao continued, “Yunshu, you must support me. You’re my best friend, and 1 need your encouragement!”
“Alright! I’ll encourage you and support you!”
The more He Yuyao acted like this, the more worried Fang Yunshu became that she might find out about her relationship with Ye Xiaofei…
“Daddy! I miss you…”
Fang Ling’er’s voice suddenly rang out, and Fang Yunshu’s expression changed in an instant. She then noticed He Yuyao’s puzzled look..
