Chapter 253: Chapter 253: Unkind for Love
The people present fell silent, the atmosphere thick enough to freeze water.
Tang Yu watched as Ye Sihan gave his order and went straight to his car, without looking back. By the time she chased after him, she only caught the shadow of the tail lights.
She turned to look at the entrance of KING Group, where security was patrolling and watching her warily.
Tears welled up in Tang Yu’s eyes, her emotions a mix of depression and sorrow.
Ye Sihan, truly heartless...
The phone on her body rang over and over until she took it out to answer, "Hello..."
"You finally answered the phone." Zhou Qinghua’s voice.
Tang Yu’s instinct was to hang up the call.
"Don’t you want to know about Yu Zhaohui’s situation?" Zhou Qinghua asked again.
Tang Yu was stunned. Had her mother gone to cause trouble for Zhou Qinghua or Lin Shuhuan and ended up being bullied?
"If anything happens to my mom, you’ll be the first one I won’t let off!"
"I don’t have the power to give your mom pancreatic cancer."
Tang Yu felt panicked, "What did you say?"
"If you didn’t hear, never mind." Zhou Qinghua hung up the phone directly.
"Hello? Hello!" Tang Yu had heard what Zhou Qinghua said, but she was too shocked to believe it.
Her mother had pancreatic cancer? Pancreatic cancer was known as the ’king of cancers’, with an incredibly high mortality rate!
How could that be possible? How could such an outrageous thing happen to her?
It must be Zhou Qinghua talking nonsense; she had to call her mom to confirm.
When the call went through, Tang Yu asked, "Mom, where are you?"
"At home, what’s up?"
"I’m coming over now." She wanted to see for herself.
Over half an hour later, Tang Yu rushed to the villa, where Yu Zhaohui was drinking tea in the yard, and Ye Xianghua was there too.
"Uncle Ye." When Tang Yu looked towards Yu Zhaohui, she did not forget to greet him.
"Xiaoyu is here, you two chat, I’ll go to the kitchen and see if dinner is ready." Ye Xianghua stood up and left.
Tang Yu immediately inspected Yu Zhaohui up and down, especially her complexion, which didn’t seem pale.
"What’s with staring at me as soon as you arrive?" Yu Zhaohui couldn’t help laughing at her, "Miss your mom?"
"You have no health issues, right?" Tang Yu asked with concern.
"What could be wrong? Do I look like something’s wrong?" Yu Zhaohui stretched out her hands, showing her energetic state.
Tang Yu’s worry ebbed away as she sat down, "You scared me to death. Zhou Qinghua called and said you had pancreatic cancer. That woman is so vicious, there’s nothing she wouldn’t say!"
"Next time I see her, if I don’t rip her mouth apart, consider it odd!" Yu Zhaohui said unhappily.
"Forget it, don’t bother with that group of people, act as if they don’t exist!" Tang Yu wasn’t in the mood to be bothered.
"Did Ye Sihan let you see the kids?" Yu Zhaohui asked.
Tang Yu shook her head, looking downcast.
"Neither Xiuhua nor I have seen the children even once. We don’t know how adorable they are, whether they look like Ye Sihan or like you..." Yu Zhaohui stared off into the distance, her expression gloomy.
Tang Yu felt guilty; she had changed her phone multiple times, and the videos and photos of the children were in the camera or the computer.
"Once Ye Sihan is no longer angry, I’ll only be able to show you videos and photos," Tang Yu said. She was brave to finally get to see the children, but would she immediately bring them to Yu Zhaohui? She didn’t dare gamble what Ye Sihan would do. "About seeing the children, you’ll have to wait a bit."
"I’m afraid I might not be able to wait..."
"What did you just say?" Tang Yu was a bit distracted and didn’t catch it clearly.
"I said I’m desperate!" Yu Zhaohui turned her face, complaining.
"Mom, I will try to plead with Ye Sihan." Tang Yu would certainly not give up.
They were her children; why should she give up?
If Ye Sihan didn’t agree one day, she wouldn’t give up that day; if not in one year, she wouldn’t give up for that year!
It was already dinner time when Ye Xianghua came to call them to eat.
At the dining table, Yu Zhaohui offered Tang Yu some chicken, "Eat more, you’ve lost weight. How do you take care of yourself living alone? You didn’t want to move in when I asked, preferring that cold and lonely rental place..."
As she spoke, her voice choked with emotion.
Tang Yu froze, not expecting that her recent lack of good meals and weight loss would upset her mother so much.
Ye Xianghua, holding tissues, wiped Yu Zhaohui’s tears and comforted her, "Don’t cry, Xiaoyu is here; it’ll worry her. Let’s have Xiaoyu stay a couple of days with no other plans, to keep you company."
"Yeah, I will," Tang Yu said.
In her mind, she thought staying a couple of days wouldn’t be an issue.
"Stay the night?" Yu Zhaohui seized the opportunity to ask.
"...Okay." Tang Yu agreed.
After dinner, Tang Yu did not leave; it was her first time staying in Ye Xianghua’s villa.
Yu Zhaohui had mentioned before that this was not the mansion where Ye Xianghua lived with Zhao Xing, which was located elsewhere and was also Ye Sihan’s no-go zone; no one dared to enter without permission.
Not even Ye Xianghua.
But Ye Xianghua wouldn’t go there either, as that was the place where the tragedy had ended.
What was the point in going?
Tang Yu stood on the balcony, looking into the distance; even though she lived here, her heart was with her child and with Ye Sihan.
What were the children doing now? Playing with penguins or toy cars?
And what about Ye Sihan? Was he working in the study or spending time with the children?
Tang Yu felt an emptiness inside her...
There was a knock at the door, and Yu Zhaohui entered, holding a glass of milk.
"Drink a glass of milk before bed, and you’ll sleep better," Yu Zhaohui handed her the milk. "I see you’ve got dark circles under your eyes. Not sleeping well, are you?"
"Mom, what should I do if Ye Sihan doesn’t let me see the children again?" Tang Yu, holding the cup, asked.
"That won’t happen. Don’t think of the worst," Yu Zhaohui comforted her. "At least you’re still in the capital. As long as you’re here, there’s a chance to see the children."
Tang Yu was deep in her sleep, not knowing what she dreamt of, but she woke up in a panic, sitting up quickly.
Checking the time, it was already past midnight.
She touched her forehead, covered in sweat.
She had dreamt of Ye Sihan.
Ye Sihan appeared by her bedside, asking her why she chose to stay here, intending never to see her children in her lifetime?
The thought of Ye Sihan’s reason for not letting her see the children made Tang Yu unable to stay a moment longer.
She dressed quickly, eager to leave.
Just as she reached the bottom of the stairs, she saw Ye Xianghua wearing pajamas, holding a glass of water, who asked in confusion, "Uncle Ye, you haven’t slept?"
"Thirsty. I got up to have some water. And you..." Ye Xianghua noticed she was wearing her clothes, "Is it because you’re not used to the bed?"
Tang Yu couldn’t voice her anxiety, "Please tell my mom for me, I’ll come over next time."
"Then I’ll arrange for a car to take you," Ye Xianghua didn’t press her.
"Thank you."
After arranging for Tang Yu’s departure, Ye Xianghua returned to his room.
Yu Zhaohui wasn’t in bed. The sound of vomiting came from the bathroom.
Ye Xianghua rushed over and helped Yu Zhaohui, who was sitting on the ground, to sit on his lap, "Zhaohui, how are you feeling? Drink some water..."
Yu Zhaohui’s face was deathly pale. She shook her head, "Don’t tell Xiaoyu, don’t tell her..."
"Xiaoyu has already gone back," Ye Xianghua said.
Yu Zhaohui’s breath was rapid, her eyes filled with despair, "She truly can’t let go of the children, just like I... can’t let go of her. Xianghua, is this my retribution?"
"It’s all my fault. If there is retribution, it should fall on me," Ye Xianghua said with distress.
Yu Zhaohui collapsed in his embrace, crying, "I’m sorry, Xianghua. I’m so regretful..."
"Do you regret being with me?" Ye Xianghua felt dejected.
Yu Zhaohui shook her head, tears streaming, "Yes, I do regret. I was unkind for love, and in the end, I won’t be able to grow old with you. I ruined you..."
Ye Xianghua hugged her tighter, "Because of you, my life felt meaningful. How could that be ruining me? Tomorrow, I’ll take you abroad. The world is so vast, there must be a cure."
"It’s no use, pancreatic cancer is in its late stages, the doctors have said there’s nothing to be done..." Yu Zhaohui’s sorrow was tinged with fear.
Being lucid and feeling death coming, it’s a terrifying thing.
Tang Yu returned to her rental apartment, and only when she lay in her own bed did she feel at ease.
About Yu Zhaohui’s situation, she knew nothing, just longing for her children.
Tang Yu visiting the villa, Ye Sihan probably didn’t know, right?
And since she hadn’t stayed the night, Ye Sihan wouldn’t find out!
He definitely wouldn’t!
In the past few days, Tang Yu was either waiting outside the KING Group building or at the school gates.
She had also gone to Ye Mansion.
But the cars outside weren’t allowed in, and she couldn’t even touch the door of Ye Mansion.
She loitered where Ye Sihan might appear, like a lonely ghost.
Ye Sihan must have seen her but turned a blind eye.
Not once did he stop for her.
Ye Sihan now had other women, from the bars to the secretaries at KING Group; how could he possibly have a favorable look at her...
Around four in the afternoon, Ye Sihan once again saw the black Rolls-Royce gliding past him, disappearing into the endless stream of traffic.
Tang Yu stood by the roadside, staring hopelessly, her heart sinking to its lowest.
The tears in her eyes were swirling, but she held back from letting them fall.
It didn’t matter; as long as she persisted, there would be a chance to see her children...
The phone in her bag began to ring, and she pulled out her cell phone.
Her vision blurred with tears, she couldn’t see the numbers on the screen clearly but answered the call, not expecting that it would be Ye Xianghua on the other end.
"Xiaoyu, come and see your mother."
