After Bankruptcy, the Billionaire Asked Me to Marry Him!

Chapter 198: Chapter 198 Are You Doing This on Purpose?

After spending an afternoon at the amusement park, we also gathered around the lake to watch the old men winter fishing.

Seeing a group of white-haired, white-bearded old men with their noses all red from the cold, yet stubbornly watching over their fishless holes in hopes of a catch, Xiao Bao and Ye Li exchanged glances with an unspoken agreement that they simply couldn’t understand it.

After dinner, while it was still not dark, Ye Li prepared to go home.

The Maybach headed toward Ye Mansion; in the back seat, Xiao Bao wore an unhappy face.

He gazed at Ye Li with reproachful eyes, silently accusing her of heartlessly and cruelly abandoning him.

"Today’s Friday, I have to go home!"

Pinching his little face and gripping his hand tightly, Ye Li coaxed in a gentle voice, "Anyway, you don’t need someone to accompany you at night, right? I’ll come over to play with you after I wake up tomorrow!"

As the words fell, she caught Fu Yanci’s gaze in the rearview mirror: Ah Li, I need you to accompany me tonight!

Ye Li pretended not to see his hint.

When the Ye Family was still around, Ye Li lived in her student dorm from Sunday to Thursday.

She would go home after school on Fridays.

On weekends, if someone asked her out, she would go; if not, she’d just be at home staring into space since her parents had their own things to do and didn’t need her company.

Mom coming home meant she had to return to her previous routine.

But during the day, she could still go back to Lishan Mansion.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Xiao Bao’s face lit up with a smile, and his frown disappeared.

Ye Li looked up again to catch Fu Yanci’s unfriendly eyes in the rearview mirror.

During the day at Lishan Mansion.

At night, back to Ye Mansion to stay.

Ah Li, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?

Having played with Xiao Bao for so long, Ye Li found her ability to read people’s expressions and words was getting stronger.

She laughed inwardly with pride but dared not show it at all on her face. Ye Li pitifully murmured, "Fu Yanci, there’s nothing I can do. I’ve always been a good girl since I was little, don’t believe me? Just go ask..."

She stopped short of saying Mrs. Zhou’s name and switched tracks, "Don’t believe me? Just ask Aunt Lan!"

After all, Aunt Lan would definitely take her side.

The girl’s face was full of fearless confidence, and Fu Yanci nodded, "Alright. I’ll ask her personally next time, and by the way, I’ll ask mom too!"

???

Thinking of that mom who comes knocking on weekends: "Ah Li, don’t sleep in," "Ah Li, the sun is shining on your butt," "Ah Li, hurry up and make plans with your friends, why are you so homebound at such a young age?"

Ye Li: !!!

"Fu Yanci, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?"

"Ah Li, I’m not, I didn’t, don’t be ridiculous!"

"You clearly are!"

"Fine... If you say so, then it is. Whatever Ah Li says is right, is that okay now?"

"..."

Her hand got tugged, and Ye Li turned to face Xiao Bao’s expression of disdain: You two, aren’t you childish?

To be deemed childish by a five-year-old little brat?

"Fu Muzhi, you’re dead!"

She reached out to tickle his soft spots, and his giggles soon filled the entire car.

When the car stopped, Ye Li looked up to see Ye Mansion a hundred meters away.

"Alright, see you tomorrow..."

Ye Li ruffled Xiao Bao’s head, "If you wake up early, we can have lunch together, otherwise, I’ll see you after lunch!"

Xiao Bao waved goodbye.

Ye Li turned and got out of the car.

Thud!

The car door locked, and as she turned around, she was pinned against the door by a man.

Blocked by the car body, there was no worry Li Xueqing coming out of the mansion would see.

Fu Yanci held Ye Li in his arms, looking down into her eyes as he said, "Ah Li, I’ll come over to pick you up tomorrow morning... you give me an exact time!"

It’s already tragic enough not to eat meat at night.

Is the daytime together also being reduced to a vague ’around lunchtime’?

I can’t stand it!

"Then... 11 o’clock?"

Ye Li tentatively probed.

Fu Yanci set it in stone, "10 o’clock, not a minute later! Otherwise, I don’t mind making another visit to check on Aunt Ye’s health!"

The affectionate mom became the official Aunt Ye.

The threat in the man’s words was obvious.

And, truth to tell, he could really follow through!

Ye Li: !!!

So frustrating!
