Listening to his tone, Ye Ya felt a bit displeased. "Are you just afraid I'll hurt her?"
"I'm worried about you getting hurt, silly. Honey, for my sake, don't get into a fight with her, okay?" Lu Tianyang wasn't concerned about Fu Wan Jing's feelings. If the Fu Family teamed up with his grandfather later on, their lives would become quite difficult. It was truly a case of being caught between a rock and a hard place.
"Got it. I didn't even lay a finger on her. I just told her that you were planning to have a second child with me, and it made Fu Wan Jing so angry that her face turned green." After saying this, Ye Ya couldn't help but laugh. If this were ancient times, she would definitely be the scheming concubine type.
"Honey, I'll handle this matter myself. Don't rush into the second child issue; let's wait until Chen Chen is a bit older. I don't want another person competing with me for your attention."
Hearing his words made Ye Ya almost burst out laughing. "Lu Tianyang, how shameless! I don't want to have a second child; having Chen Chen is enough for me. Are you biased against girls? Do you look down on my Chen Chen?"
"Stop talking nonsense. As long as it's your child, I’ll love them no matter what they are. Alright, sweetheart, just wait for me to come home. If anything comes up, give me a call and blow me a kiss." After saying this, Lu President affectionately kissed the phone to show his longing.
Ye Ya hung up the phone and raised an eyebrow lightly. No matter how Fu Wan Jing tried to show off, she didn’t care. The key was Lu Tianyang; as long as he wanted her by his side, she would protect their home. Her Chen Chen needed a father too.
For Chen Chen's sake, she would work hard to keep this family together.
In the afternoon, Ye Ya arrived at the company with Tao Momo to officially start the renovations. Tao Momo couldn't help but feel excited. "Xiao Ya, we’re going to be CEOs now! I never expected this!"
"It's all thanks to you. In the future, I want everyone in Quan Ning City to take pride in wearing our clothes. Once we make some money, I'm going to buy another house." For some reason, Ye Ya always thought of buying property whenever she had money; she felt that owning a house gave her more security.
Tao Momo playfully placed her hand on Ye Ya's shoulder and laughed. "Rich lady! Your man’s properties are all over Quan Ning City; what more do you need?"
"I'm just leaving myself an escape route, Mo Mo. Do you think I'm being too pessimistic?" Ye Ya pondered her mindset; sometimes she really lacked confidence, but other times she felt she had to persevere. What if Fu Wan Jing was just slightly richer and had a better reputation than her?
"Having an escape route isn't wrong at all. But Lu Tianyang loves you; Xiao Ya, you will be happy."
Ye Ya gently furrowed her brows at the thought of love. She had never heard Lu Tianyang say he loved her in those exact words before.
"By the way, how are things with Qi Fan?" Ye Ya asked, her concern leaning more towards Tao Momo's lifelong affairs.
At the mention of Qi Fan, Tao Momo's lips twitched slightly, and she felt a bit embarrassed. "It's still the same; I just can't stand him."
"People are strange like that. The ones you dislike the most often end up together. But Mo Mo, you can't let him have you so easily. Look at me and Lu Tianyang—I'd rather not talk about it."
As they discussed men, both women sighed in unison. Career was equally important for women; if one day a man were to disappear, they couldn't afford to lose their careers as well.
In the evening, Tao Momo received a call from Qi Fan. "Hello, I'm busy, so skip the small talk."
If it had been anyone else, they would have hung up immediately. However, Qi Fan understood Tao Momo's personality well. That woman had a sharp tongue but was actually quite nice; her femininity was something few men could truly appreciate. Qi Fan took pride in this, feeling it proved his discerning eye.
"Mo, where are you? I’ll come pick you up. I've already reserved a table at your favorite restaurant," Qi Fan said with a slight smile as he drove.
Ye Ya watched Tao Momo's expression and couldn't help but chuckle. She directly told Qi Fan the address. "Thanks, Ye Ya! I’ll be there soon. Keep an eye on Mo Mo for me; don’t let her escape."
"Xiao Ya, why are you helping him?" Tao Momo was furious, feeling that her position in Ye Ya's heart had been overshadowed by Qi Fan.
"Alright, pack your things and head down first. I’ll be fine here. You should enjoy your date and not miss out," Ye Ya replied. Unlike her own experience of diving straight into work after joining the Ye family and skipping the dating phase entirely before having children and getting married.
The feeling of being in love brought a familiar face to Ye Ya’s mind—someone she hadn’t seen in a long time. She wondered how Xiao Lin was doing now, the warm-hearted boy from her high school days. Ye Ya sincerely wished him well.
After Tao Momo left, Ye Ya waited until the renovation team departed before she headed out herself. Lu Tianyang had offered to pick her up, but Ye Ya found it too much trouble to wait for him; it would be quicker for them to go home separately.
As she descended the stairs, she realized it might be rush hour since catching a taxi was proving difficult. After walking for a while in her high heels without spotting any cabs, she felt frustrated and just wanted to get home to see her child.
She decided to walk to the intersection ahead to hail a taxi when she noticed a Land Rover parked by the roadside. She turned to look; this area shouldn’t allow parking. Shaking her head, she thought how reckless rich second-generation kids could be these days.
However, Ye Ya noticed something was off. The faces of the people inside the car were pale, and her damned sympathy kicked in again. She couldn't help but knock on the car door. "Sir, are you okay? Do you need help?"
Long Shaotang clutched his stomach, feeling weak all over. "Stop talking nonsense and get lost."
Ye Ya had never encountered someone with such a bad temper before. She shot him a glare. "Hey, you didn’t overdo it with your fans, did you? I’ll call the police."
"You stupid woman, don’t mess around. I might have eaten something bad; my stomach hurts." Long Shaotang wanted to strangle her. Just because he was involved in this business didn’t mean he had to be a glutton.
"Come on, you’re not going to die, are you? I’ll call an ambulance; that’s the least I can do." Ye Ya thought to herself that she couldn’t just watch someone die on the road. Making a phone call was the least she could manage.
"Don’t call!" Long Shaotang pressed down on her phone, irritated by her meddling. The pain in his stomach made him feel like he was dying.
"I’ve never met anyone with such a terrible temper. Whoever married you must be crying in despair. Fine, move over; the hospital isn’t far ahead. I’ll take you there, but whether you live or die is none of my business." Ye Ya said roughly as she unbuckled his seatbelt and pushed him into the passenger seat.
The hospital was just up ahead. Ye Ya drove toward it. "Hey, are you dead yet? Can you walk? If you can, get yourself inside; I’m leaving."
No one had ever dared to speak to Long Shaotang like that before. This woman telling him to get inside made an impression on him.
Ye Ya got out of the car and pushed him gently, noticing how pale he looked and the beads of sweat on his forehead. "Hey, how are you feeling?"
"My stomach hurts."
Ye Ya’s damned sympathy surfaced again. She opened the car door and helped Long Shaotang out. "We’re at the hospital; hang in there."
Long Shaotang leaned heavily against Ye Ya as she dragged him toward the entrance of the hospital. "Doctor, help!" she called out.
The doctor assessed the situation and immediately sensed something was wrong. "You go handle the admission paperwork; I suspect he has appendicitis and will need surgery."
Ye Ya was at a loss, unsure whether to stay or leave. In the end, she had no choice but to pay the admission fee and complete the hospital procedures. That jerk drove a Range Rover; it was obvious he was wealthy, and she thought someone should notify his family. She didn’t want to deal with this mess.
But when Ye Ya returned to the car, she realized it was locked. She had forgotten her keys—damn it.
Just then, her phone buzzed with an incoming call from Lu Tianyang. “Honey, where are you? Why haven’t you come back yet?”
Lu Tianyang calculated the time and figured she should have been home by now, yet there was no sign of her.
“Hubby, something happened on the road. Someone got injured, so I brought him to the hospital. I’ll be back soon,” Ye Ya quickly explained, worried that Lu Tianyang would be concerned.
“Where are you? I’ll come pick you up.” Upon hearing this, Lu Tianyang frowned slightly; this woman always had to meddle in other people’s affairs.
“No need, I’ll be back right away. Don’t worry,” Ye Ya refused, thinking that everything was under control. Lu Tianyang had been busy all day; there was no need to trouble him further.
“Then hurry back. Chen Chen is crying and calling for his mom.”
“Okay, I’m on my way back. You take care of Chen Chen,” Ye Ya said, her heart racing at the thought of Chen Chen crying. She reassured herself that it was just appendicitis; once the surgery was done, everything would be fine.
Ye Ya paid the five thousand for the hospital admission fee. That jerk could afford a Range Rover; there shouldn’t be any issues with the hospital fees.
With that thought in mind, Ye Ya felt relieved and headed home.
When she got back, it was already past nine o’clock. Lu Tianyang was in the living room holding Chen Chen. Seeing Ye Ya return, he wanted to give her a piece of his mind, but looking at how exhausted she appeared, he couldn’t bring himself to scold her.
He handed the child over to the nanny and asked Guo Ma to reheat the food. “Honey, wash your hands and eat quickly; I’ll interrogate you later.”
“Interrogate me? Do you think I went off doing something bad?” Ye Ya huffed as she washed her hands and noticed that the food hadn’t been touched. “Why didn’t you eat first? It’s already past nine! Lu Tianyang, you idiot.”
"You don't come back, and I can't enjoy my meal, dear. It's all your fault."
"That's right, Lady. I've tried to persuade the young master to eat, but he insists on waiting for you." Guo Ma watched them, pleased to see their relationship growing stronger. The young master used to socialize much less than he did now; this was what living a life should look like.
"Guo Ma, this is none of your business. You can go back to what you were doing."
"Why? Did I say something wrong? Next time, if it gets too late, just eat without me. I won't wait for you." Ye Ya took a sip of soup, her stomach feeling like it was about to collapse from hunger.
After finishing their meal, it was nearly ten o'clock. Lu Tianyang pulled Ye Ya back into their room. "Dear, what happened tonight? If I had known, I would have come to pick you up. Next time you're late, you need to listen to me. By the way, can't you drive? Why did you go by yourself? I'll come get you whenever I have time."
"When I came down today, I couldn't get a taxi. Then I ran into someone on the way who had appendicitis, so I took him to the hospital. I couldn't just stand by and do nothing."
"Sigh, you..." If Lu Tianyang knew that the person Ye Ya saved was Long Shaotang, he would probably be furious.
"But I'm back now, so don't worry. Besides, I've trained for this; I'm not going to suffer any losses." Ye Ya shrugged off his concerns and headed toward the bathroom to enjoy the massage bathtub; her shoulders were really sore.
"Are you tired, dear? Our bathtub is quite large; let me give you a massage." Now that they were home, Lu Tianyang felt relieved seeing her safe. Given how exhausted she looked, it was only right for him as her husband to give her a massage.
