Thanks to Soong Wanting's blessings these few days, no one was able to make things difficult for her. Not only that, they heard that she had become Young Madame's sworn sister in the future, and that people who had never been in contact with her before had all come to visit her.
The most unexpected was Sun Mengmeng. She had apologized and regretted to Xia Yihan.
Faang Linuo found it difficult to clap her hands off, and she did not dare to continue arguing with Xia Yihan at this time. She could only continue to envy her luck in her heart.
She had learned about Zhao Tian'ai's departure from Liu Xiaojiao two days later. At that time, she had felt very shocked, but she had also suppressed that intense feeling. She told herself that Ye Zimo disliked her, so it had nothing to do with her.
Liu Xiaojiao offered to stay with Xia Yihan, but she readily agreed. She told the butler and the butler immediately agreed. That night, she called for Liu Xiaojiao to move in.
A few times, Xia Yihan had wanted to work, but she was stopped by Soong Wanting.
A few days later, when she no longer needed to drip any blood, and her complexion had gradually recovered, the butler arranged for her to do some light jobs, jobs where she wouldn't have the chance to see Ye Zimo.
When Ye Zimo ran in the morning, Soong Wanting said that she was still weak and needed to rest. She didn't need to wake up early in the morning, and the butler had already followed her instructions.
The butler knew it was a good strategy to keep her out of Ye Zimo's sight.
If Ye Zimo had forgotten about her, Soong Wanting would never have remembered to have such a sister. If that happened, wouldn't he be the one to torture her?
No matter what job the housekeeper arranged, Xia Yihan took it seriously.
It wasn't that she hadn't thought of Ye Zimo in her heart. Even when that tall and handsome man's image flashed before her eyes countless times, she forced herself to ignore him.
She always told herself that there was no need to remember a man who had kissed you several times and had occasionally deliberately given her a little tenderness.
Nearly every night Liu Xiaojiao tried to persuade Xia Yihan not to give up this rare chance, but Xia Yihan remained unmoved.
One day, after Ye Zimo had finished her run and left, Liu Xiaojiao found an opportunity to secretly follow him and stop him.
"Mr Ye!"
"What is it?" Ye Zimo asked with an expressionless face.
"I want to talk to you about Xia Yihan."
She thought that when Xia Yihan's name was mentioned, Ye Zimo would show an expression of concern. Who knew that he would still be as cold as ever, sternly interrupting her words.
"Tell the housekeeper not to look for me."
Liu Xiaojiao saw that no one was around, so she chased after him while saying loudly, "Mr Ye, she likes you. She often calls you by your name when she sleeps at night."
Liu Xiaojiao noticed that Ye Zimo's back suddenly stiffened and her steps halted.
She still wanted to say something, but he returned to his normal appearance and left in large strides.
Ye Zimo's life was very regular. After she finished exercising in the morning, she would never enter the gym again.
The housekeeper arranged for Xia Yihan to clean the gym by herself every day. She was already used to using two white rags, one dry and one wet, to wipe every nook and cranny of the gym without a speck of dust.
She felt that every day when she did this, her heart would be very, very calm.
That day, when she knelt on the ground and wiped the floor, she caught a glimpse of the wound on her wrist. For some reason, she once again thought of the man who had injured her.
She couldn't help but wonder if she had scratched him and scabbed his arm. Would that mark remain there forever? Would it last for the rest of his life?
She let out a long sigh and said to herself, "Xia Yihan, what are you thinking about? People who should not think about it, things that should not be, must not think about it, don't think about it! "
She was lost in her thoughts and she was also lost in her thoughts. She actually didn't hear the sound of footsteps approaching her at all.
She noticed that someone had entered and saw the long shadow cast by the light. The tall shadow completely enveloped the little girl who was kneeling on the ground.
She looked up in surprise and met Ye Zimo's gaze.
When their gazes met, Xia Yihan's heart beat rapidly, urgently, as if it was going to break through her chest.
It was as if she had been looking forward to seeing him, as if his arrival had filled an empty corner of her heart for a moment, filling it with a sweet, sour feeling.
