Chapter 1163: The Pain Is Nearly Suffocating, I Can’t Breathe Anymore
The car hadn’t stopped for long when Ling Haoyu rolled up the window and said to the driver in front, "Let’s go!"
The day after the full moon banquet
Beichen Rui went to work at the company, leaving Ye Xinluo alone at home with the child.
At the entrance, the car’s rear door opened, and Zhang Minyi stepped out carrying several food boxes, handing them to the bodyguard.
Xinluo had also completed her confinement period, and she could relax now. Today was her last time delivering food, and in a few days, she would indeed be going back.
Just as she turned to walk towards the car, the tightly closed door behind her suddenly opened. Ye Xinluo stood there holding the child, her expression cold, "Since you’re here, why leave so quickly?"
Zhang Minyi was startled and turned to look, confirming she wasn’t mistaken before speaking, "You’ve just finished your confinement period, the weather outside is a bit cold, you shouldn’t stand out here for long."
Ye Xinluo did not respond, glanced at the items in the bodyguard’s hands, and slightly pursed her lips, "Come inside."
Having said that, she entered the house first, holding the child.
Honestly, during this period, she had more than once wondered who exactly was making these meals.
She had also been observant and hadn’t noticed anything unusual.
It wasn’t until just now, when she heard the sound of a car stopping at the entrance and thought Beichen Rui was coming back to have lunch with her, that she went out with the child, only to realize...
It was at this moment that Ye Xinluo finally understood why the meals during this period had been prepared and delivered, rather than cooked freshly at the villa.
Back in the living room, she placed the little one in the crib, and without lifting an eyelid, she spoke, "Have a seat."
Zhang Minyi stood behind, entirely unprepared for being invited inside, her heart agitated to the point of being speechless.
"These meals during this period were pre-made and delivered?"
Though she already knew the answer, she still wanted to hear her acknowledge it herself.
"Yes, do you... like them?"
Ye Xinluo didn’t reply.
After a while, she finally spoke, "Thank you for the trouble."
The words caused a dull ache in Zhang Minyi’s heart. To hear such words from her biological daughter was an unbearable sensation. Her lips trembled as she spoke, "Xinluo... I know you resent me, hate me, but can you not... treat me like this? It’s Mom who wronged you, you can scold me all you want, just don’t..."
"Mom?" Ye Xinluo responded with a cold laugh.
"Sorry, my mom passed away five years ago."
In her lifetime, she only ever had Mrs. Ye as her mother, and as for the person before her, she truly felt nothing.
"I invited you in not to hear these things. Thank you for preparing these meals during this time. In the future... there’s no need for it anymore."
Even if she wanted to, there’d be no opportunity...
She had expected that Xinluo would eventually resist upon discovering the truth, but when this day arrived, it was still hard on her heart.
She lowered her head for a good half minute, calming her inner emotions before speaking, "There will be no more in the future. I’ve asked Haoyu to book a ticket to France for next Wednesday. In the future, I won’t come to disturb you anymore."
Ye Xinluo’s fingers holding the crib slightly curled for a moment, but quickly returned to normal, her tone unhurried as she spoke, "Then, have a safe journey."
At this moment, Zhang Minyi’s heart could no longer be described with pain; it felt like it was on the verge of suffocating, desperate for breath.
"Xinluo, can I tell you something? No matter how much you may dislike me, during these last few days, can I accompany you? Just consider it as fulfilling my wish, would you?"
