Chapter 1103: They Sat in the Same Car
He Xiyan refused to speak to him the entire time she was driving. She gripped the driving wheel tightly and didn’t even turn back to glance at him, even though she knew that he was not faking his injury and that his arm was probably fractured
Ming City was more than 500 kilometers away and it was a five to six-hour journey by car. She didn’t even stop to eat or to use the toilet. The only time she stopped was to spend 200 dollars on gas at the gas station before she continued to drive toward Ming City.
Ye Hao had a rather self-inflated ego and he interpreted Yan Yan’s actions as her being concerned about him, which was why she drove so quickly to send him to Ming City’s hospital without even stopping for a break.
“Yan Yan, are you hungry?” Ye Hao asked during the midway point of the journey.
“I’m okay. It’s just a minor injury, so I’ll be able to bear with the pain. Let’s find something to eat,” he added.
Ye Hao was worried that this journey would exhaust Yan Yan out since they didn’t even have breakfast before setting out.
He Xiyan continued to drive and ignored him. However, she suddenly pulled out a bag from a side compartment, took out a box of biscuits, and threw it at Ye Hao who sat in the backseat. She unwrapped a loaf of bread and took a few bites.
She had to eat because she was driving, so she had to make sure she had enough energy to focus on driving.
Ye Hao took the box of biscuits and only ate two pieces. He usually hated eating tidbits and he would usually avoid eating bread, biscuits, potato chips, and other kinds of tidbits.
However, he ate a few bites this time because he was famished.
Then, he took a few gulps of water.
“Yan Yan, I’d like to hire a private tutor for Xi Xi,” he suddenly said as he switched topics. He had tried to engage her in conversation on several occasions but Yan Yan had ignored him. This time, he was certain that she would respond.
Just as he expected, He Xiyan frowned and asked, “What kind of tutor?”
“A private dance tutor and a piano tutor. I’ll engage the services of the best tutors in Ye City. What do you think?” he asked.
Ye Hao wasn’t a strict father and he was of the opinion that his daughter would only need to be talented in certain areas. He didn’t really pay attention to her studies since he thought that girls didn’t need to excel in their studies. His daughter wouldn’t need to work in the future since he had more than enough money for her to spend over several lifetimes.
His little princess didn’t need to worry about money in the future and she’d be able to whatever she wished.
He Xiyan thought about it for a moment but she didn’t give him an immediate response.
She had noticed that her daughter would only spend some time dancing but didn’t take it seriously. She guessed that her daughter would not be willing to put in the effort to learn any form of the arts.
“Let’s speak about this another time. We’ll have to seek her opinion first,” He Xiyan said.
Her top priority was to wean Xi Xi off some of her bad habits. Xi Xi would refuse to eat midway during a meal, or suddenly refuse to walk and insisted on being carried. She was also very p.r.o.ne to cursing and Xi Xi’s teacher had already told He Xiyan twice that she had hurled curses at her cla.s.smates.
She guessed that Ye Hao hadn’t really paid attention to how their daughter was being raised, which had turned her into the spoilt princess she was today.
She continued to drive and they finally arrived at Ming City five hours later.
She drove to the Central Hospital at Ming City.
Then, she got off the car and watched as Ye Hao disembarked.
Ye Hao’s legs were still hurting and he was still walking with a limp. He looked nothing like his usual tall and confident self.
He couldn’t even lift his right hand.
He Xiyan couldn’t help but sigh when she saw how slowly he was walking.
She hesitated for a brief moment before she walked up to him and held his arm to support him.
