Chapter 512 Is Mom going to marry Brother Yifei?
"Mom?" Seeing that his mother didn't respond, Yifei called out again.
"What do you need this information for?" He hope asked.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to know. Even though the other party only sold the kidney for money, it still saved my life," Yifei said.
He hope's mood calmed down slightly, and she said, "What you said makes sense, but the other party doesn't want others to know, so we don't need to force them. Just keep it in mind. You've just recovered from a serious illness, so don't think too much about it. Just focus on getting better, and that's also a way of repaying the person who donated a kidney to you."
"Oh, I see. Mom, are you still awake?" Yifei asked.
"I'm ready. What about you? Are you in the office or back at your place?" Since starting work, Yifei has been living in another apartment under He hope's name.
"We're on our way. You should get some rest, Mom. I won't bother you anymore."
Although her relationship with her son has improved considerably after this accident, there is still a certain distance between them, judging from how politely she speaks.
However, He hope didn't dwell on it too much. "Then drive carefully, go home and get some sleep. Don't work too hard. If you need any help, just tell your dad."
Okay. Goodnight, Mom.
After hanging up the phone, Yifei felt a little calmer, but he gradually wanted to return to Quanxinyu. The doubts and strange feelings in his heart had not completely dissipated.
On the other end, He hope held her phone, her face full of worry.
She wondered why Yifei had brought this up out of the blue. Had he discovered something?
What about Gu Zhiyao? Could she have noticed something too?
Should she talk to A-Yi about it?
Because of his son's phone call, He hope couldn't sleep all night, while He Yi, who knew nothing about it, slept soundly until dawn.
He's been on edge these days, and it's been a long time since he's slept like this.
It was as if the person had come back to life.
But as he looked around at the empty surroundings, his mood became heavy again, swallowed up by boundless pain, struggle, and sorrow.
Just then, the door was gently pushed open, and a familiar little head peeked in—that beautiful little face, that playful and charming expression…
Is it Niu Niu?
Did he read that correctly?
He Yi quickly sat up, momentarily forgetting the pain in his lower back, and let out a muffled groan.
"Dad, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Niu Niu rushed over when she saw his pain.
Looking at his delicate daughter, He Yi's heart stirred, and he said, "Daddy's back hurts a little."
"Oh? Let me see," Niu Niu said quickly.
He Yi then gently pulled up his pajamas, pointed to the painful spot, and asked the little girl, "Why don't you give Daddy a massage?"
"Okay!" Niu Niu had never done anything like this before, but she tried her best to pinch it, her movements clumsy yet adorable.
As He Yi watched, tears welled up in his eyes.
A moment later, Niu Niu called him, and he snapped out of his reverie, concealing his sadness, and asked, "Why are you here?"
“Uncle Quan picked me up. I missed my dad, so I asked my mom if I could come back here to see him. My mom called Uncle Quan, and then he picked me up. My brother came with me.”
Chenchen is here too?
Just then, there was another movement at the door, and it was Chenchen who had finished using the toilet and came in.
The little guy was clearly different from his sister; he walked up to He Yi with a very composed demeanor and called out, "Dad."
He Yi nodded happily.
"Dad, your back..."
"I fell yesterday," He Yi said.
"Really? You'll have to be more careful next time. Do you need me to press it for you too?"
"No need, Niu Niu can handle it, it's not a big problem." He Yi looked back and forth between his daughter and son, feeling both touched and gratified, yet also saddened.
Niu Niu went out for a bit, leaving He Yi and his son facing each other.
Chenchen stared at his father and suddenly asked, "Dad, is Mom going to marry Brother Yifei?"
He Yi was immediately startled and looked at Chenchen in surprise.
"I guessed it myself. Although Mom didn't tell me, I could tell. Also, Mom said I should stay with you from now on. Dad, what do you think?" Chenchen's expression was calm, not at all like a six or seven-year-old child, nor did he seem to be talking about his parents completely separating and which parent he would be with.
He Yi continued to stare blankly at his son, at a loss for words.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Chenchen picked up her phone from the bedside table and handed it to He Yi.
He Yi thanked him and answered the phone, "Sister?"
"Yi, good morning. Yifei suddenly asked me last night who the person who donated his kidney to him was. Do you think he discovered something?" He hope couldn't help but tell her brother about it.
He Yi was also taken aback upon hearing this. "Besides asking that, what else did he say?"
"No, he just said he wanted to know something. He didn't seem to have thought of coming to you yet, but I don't know why he asked about it. Back in Canada, after hearing the story we made up, he couldn't stop thinking about it. So I was worried that he might have discovered something, so I told you."
“Okay, I understand, sis. Maybe he just remembered it suddenly, so don’t worry too much,” He Yi said.
He hope hesitated for a moment, then said, "Ayi, are you really not going to let Yifei know? And what about Gu Zhiyao? Actually, I still think you should let them know..."
"No need, sister. I understand your feelings, but it's really not necessary. If Yifei asks you again, just tell him what we agreed on before. As for other matters, I will follow up."
"Okay." He hope's voice was choked with emotion.
He Yi paused for a moment, then said, "Sis, let's leave it at that for now. Chenchen and Niu Niu are with me."
"Chenchen and Niuniu went to find you?" He hope asked excitedly.
“Yes, Niu Niu missed me, so Quan Xinyu brought them over.”
“Then you should spend more time with them. Why don’t you skip going back to the company today and take them out for some fun? They’ve been living abroad for a long time, so this will also help them get used to the environment in China,” He hope said.
"Yes, then I'll make arrangements for the company."
call ended.
He Yi put away his phone, looked at his son, and then said casually, "Chenchen, Dad knows about all the questions you just asked. Would you like to stay with Dad?"
Chenchen's little face was serious. He stared at his father for a moment and then answered, "I will listen to both Dad and Mom. No matter who I live with, Dad and Mom will always be my closest people."
He Yi touched the little guy's face, his voice choked with emotion, "Yes, Chenchen is the most reassuring child."
He Yi never answered his son's question about whether Gu Zhiyao was about to marry Yi Fei.
Chenchen didn't ask any more questions, but a hint of sadness would always unconsciously show between her brows.
As expected, He Yi didn't go back to the company that day. He handed over all the matters to Quan Xinyu and then took Chenchen and Niu Niu out to play.
