Chapter 299 - Dizzy Spells (1/2)
Xu Mey didn't see the slight glimmer in Xin Qian's eyes since her attention was solely focused on the cellphone in her hand. Her relationship with her dad had sored up way beyond one could imagine perhaps because she knew how he protected her behind the scenes or maybe because she just wanted a normal family.
"Hi, dad!" She said cheerily with an affectionate tone and an infectious smile. But immediately her expression changed. "I'll be right there. Take care of dad for me." She hung up the call.
"Is everything okay, Xiao Mey?" He Susu asked looking at her anxiousness.
"Umm... I don't know... Dad just slipped down the stairs, I have to make a move." Saying that she whipped her body and turned towards the kitchen to inform Ye Jie but he was already walking towards her.
"Is father hurt badly?" Ye Jie held her shaking hands and asked.
"I have to get there to know." Xu Mey replied.
"Let me get my jacket." Ye Jie was about to turn when she held him back.
"Ah-Jie, stay here." Ye Jie gave her an inquiring gaze and she added, "Your parents have to go to the police station since it's Mrs. Ye's interrogation. You have to be there. I'll call you."
"I want you to go with me." Ye Jie pouted like a child before her.
"Ah-Jie, don't mess around. I have to leave now. Be good, I'll see you in the evening." Xu Mey gave him a lingering kiss on his lips and left.
Xu Mey might have not noticed but Xin Qian's eager eyes were not missed by He Susu. She frowned to see Xin Qian smiling at Xu Mey as tears had pooled in her eyes.
Before she could ask anything, Xin Qian stood up to leave, "I'll call you later, Su."
Her sudden departure left He Susu baffled.
On the other hand, Xu Mey reached Xu Residence in a hurry. She drove the car straight to the courtyard and got off, running inside the house. The servants greeted her on the way but she didn't stop to give them a reply. Oddly, she had only run upstairs when she felt breathless.
