Chapter 1057 - You Cant Stand Me Ridiculing My Sister (1/2)
Leng Hao returned to the villa in the evening.
He handed his briefcase to the maid and looked around. The house felt a little empty and quiet, like something was missing.
“Where’s the young madam?”
“Young master, the young madam is not back yet.”
Leng Hao looked down at the watch on his wrist. It was already seven o’clock in the evening, why was Ye Xiaotao not back yet?
He took out his phone from his trouser pocket and dialed Ye Xiaotao’s number.
After a few seconds, the call was answered. However, it wasn’t Ye Xiaotao’s voice that came through, but Ye Ziyi’s. “Hello, brother-in-law.”
“Third brother, where’s Xiaotao?” Leng Hao asked.
“Oh, Xiaotao sprained her ankle at school today. I sent someone to bring her to me. She was in pain and had been crying for a long time. I just coaxed her to sleep.”
Leng Hao placed one hand in his pocket and frowned. “How did she get hurt? Is it serious?”
“The doctor said that she hurt her bone and may need to rest for a few days. Brother-in-law, do you want to come and visit her? Xiaotao was crying and shouting your name just now.”
Leng Hao imagined a scene of Ye Xiaotao crying in his mind. In fact, he had never seen her cry. She loved to smile. Her eyes and brows curved beautifully whenever she smiled.
If she were to cry one day, it would definitely look as lovely as the falling petals from a peach blossom.
Leng Hao smiled. “Okay, I’ll be right there.”
…
Half an hour later.
The maid opened the door and Leng Hao stepped into Ye Ziyi’s villa.
“Brother-in-law, you’re here.” Ye Ziyi immediately came up to him.
Leng Hao looked up. “Where’s Xiaotao?”
Ye Ziyi went up and patted Leng Hao’s shoulder. “Xiaotao is sleeping. Let’s have a cup of tea first. When Xiaotao wakes up, she will be very happy to see you.”
Leng Hao sat on the sofa in the living room. Ye Ziyi personally made two cups of tea and then sat across from Leng Hao. “Brother-in-law, try the tea I made.”
“Thank you.” Leng Hao nodded, but he did not drink the tea. “I heard that my sister Zhiyuan has been very close to you recently.”
Ye Ziyi smiled warmly. “Yes, third brother, our families will be even closer in the future.”
“That’s a little… our relationships will be complicated. I call you third brother now. If you’re to be with my sister, then you’ll have to call me big brother instead. I still like… General Zhou a little more.” Leng Hao narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Ziyi with a faint smile.
Ye Ziyi’s expression changed for a moment, but it was fleeting. “Form of address is of no importance. The most important thing is Zhiyuan’s will. Brother-in-law, let’s go. I’ll take you to see Xiaotao.”
Ye Ziyi motioned to stand up as he said that.
