Chapter 165: Chapter 165 Mr. Zhou, Please Conduct Yourself with Dignity!

Ye Li returned to her dormitory at 12 o’clock.

Lu Xiaoxiao was already asleep.

She had left a table lamp on for her and there was milk still steaming hot.

The lamp cast a warm glow.

The warm fragrance of the milk.

Only then did Ye Li’s rigid back begin to slowly relax.

The doctor had been quite optimistic, saying her mother’s mood had become much more stable than before and she could remember the people and events around her, only, selectively.

At the same time, the doctor suggested continuing observation and treatment and ruled out all external stimuli.

This meant, not only could she not tell her mother that she had broken off the engagement with Zhou Hecchen, but she also couldn’t tell her she had already married Fu Yanci.

The most fatal thing she couldn’t let her mother know was that her father had passed away.

Ye Li didn’t dare to deeply contemplate the kind of deadly impact it would have on her mother.

However, whatever you fear, it will come.

The next afternoon, just as Ye Li was entering the hospital gate, her phone rang.

On the other end was Aunt Lan’s sigh of helplessness, "Xiao Li, Zhou Hecchen is here!"

???

Ye Li quickened her stride.

Aunt Lan whispered, "The lady called him over."

The two families’ villas were next to each other, before the Ye Family’s trouble, Mrs. Zhou would invite her mother to go to the spa together and when her mother went shopping, she would also call to ask if she wanted to join.

The two were as close as best friends.

When she and Zhou Hecchen had a falling out, both mothers knew right away.

Either her mother would call Zhou Hecchen to ask what happened, or Mrs. Zhou would bring Zhou Hecchen over so the two could talk it out face-to-face.

But now, things were no longer like they had been.

When Ye Li entered, Zhou Hecchen was sitting by the bedside, peeling an apple.

Mr. Zhou probably had never done it himself his whole life, the apple he was peeling was full of craters, resembling the surface of the Moon.

Li Xueqing didn’t urge him, only speaking gently, "He Chen, you and Ah Li have been together for so many years, playing and quarreling as children, because you were young and ignorant. Now that you’re both adults, you need to learn to control your emotions, talk things out if there’s a problem, and don’t just break up at the drop of a hat, understand?"

"Aunt Ye, I..."

"Zhou Hecchen!"

Fearing his next words would be "we’ve already broken off the engagement," Ye Li hastily interrupted him.

Zhou Hecchen turned around, staring at Ye Li’s face for a long time, the smile in his affectionate eyes slowly fading.

He knew all too well what it meant for a girl to become a woman, having tasted women before.

And at this moment, that’s what Ye Li had become.

Though she was still slender and frail, her face was so fresh it seemed water could be wrung from it.

Her eyes were clear, brimming with fluid.

The corners of her eyes and her brows emanated an allure and charm she had never shown before.

It seemed as if one bite would cause her to cry out with reddening eyes.

The rose he had watched grow in the greenhouse, just when it was budding and ready to be picked, had someone else beaten him to it?

"Aunt Ye, Xiao Li and I will step out for a moment."

"Okay, you two talk it out..."

Ye Li turned and walked out of the ward, heading towards the reception room.

She had just grabbed the doorknob when her arm was pulled, and she was dragged back and pinned against the wall.

"Ye Li..."

Zhou Hecchen’s expression darkened, "Been slept with, haven’t you?"

She tried to push him with all her might but the disparity in strength was too much; not only did she fail to push him away, but it also made him grip even tighter.

Ye Li felt as if her arm was about to break from the pain.

Biting her teeth, she lifted her knee and slammed it upwards.

His expression slightly changed, Zhou Hecchen dodged to the side, stumbling back several steps into the wall.

When he looked up again, he was met with Ye Li’s cold face, "Mr. Zhou, please behave yourself!"
