Chapter 559: When Would You Return?
“I will not go, Yuanyuan…” He Xiyan carefully placed the child onto the bed. Sitting beside the bed, she held the child’s hot little hands all the time.
How she wished she was the sick one, rather than her child.
Yuanyuan finally stopped crying. He looked at his mother with eyes wide open without speaking. He just stared blankly and coughed a couple of times from time to time.
After receiving two bottles of transfusion in succession, he fell asleep deeply again.
At this time, Wu Xiaomin packed some food and came over, which was all freshly made by the cook at home and was also He Xiyan’s favorite dishes.
“Eat something first, Yanyan…” Mo Yixuan laid his hand on her shoulder gently. She had been sitting here for hours without even taking a sip of water.
He Xiyan turned to look at the hand on her shoulder and did not hesitate to slant her shoulder a little, letting that hand fall into the air.
“You eat, I’m not hungry.” She said lightly, without even looking back. Her eyes were always fixed on Yuanyuan in the bed. From time to time, she would reach out to touch the child’s forehead to confirm that the child’s fever actually receded. Then she could feel relieved a little.
Mo Yixuan put the packed dishes onto the table, including fish fillets, fried ribs in sweet and sour sauce, stir-fried potato shreds and fried shrimp. They were all He Xiyan’s favorite home-cooked dishes.
He helped her with a bowl of rice and put a lot of food in it.
“Eat some first. You see, you are so thin.” Mo Yixuan handed the bowl to her, a touch of sympathy flas.h.i.+ng through his eyes, together with heartache. She remained extremely indifferent to him. If it weren’t for Yuanyuan, he thought, she might not want to see him.
He Xiyan turned around, looking up at the man in front of her lightly, no changes of feeling perceivable in her eyes. She took the bowl and said thanks lightly.
Instead of eating, however, she put the bowl on the cabinet beside the bed.
Turning around, she grasped the hands of Yuanyuan again. At this time, only the child’s stable breathing could calm her a little.
In fact, she really wanted to scold Li Qin and the nanny in Mo family. The physical quality of Yuanyuan was not poor, however, then how could he caught pneumonia out of no reason. What was worse, he had not been sent to the hospital until his body temperature rose as high as 40 degrees.
She really could not understand how they took care of the child.

A familiar ringtone came from the cell phone aside. He Xiyan cast a glance at it and found one word clearly on the screen: husband.
She hesitated for a moment before picking up the cell phone.
Soon her most familiar voice came through.
“Yanyan, when will you come back?”
He Xiyan responded with hum. She stood up, fingers clenching the cell phone firmly all of a sudden. A trace of hesitation flashed through her eyes, but she soon looked determined. Looking at the child in the bed, she said after a pause, “I don’t know yet. I’ll be back when Yuanyuan gets better.”
She said so calmly, without giving a specific time. After all, all her mind was set on her child at the moment. She only hoped that Yuanyuan would get better soon. Besides, she could not leave here at this time, because once Yuanyuan woke up, he would cry if he could not see her.
Suddenly, there was no sound at the other end of the phone for a long time, as if the call had been hung up.
He Xiyan looked at the screen and found that he was still on the phone.
“Ye Hao…” She called her husband’s name, not knowing what he was thinking.
