My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 564 - : 564, such beautiful hands, how great it would be if you played the piano for me

Chapter 564: 564, such beautiful hands, how great it would be if you played the piano for me

Ye Bei felt both anger and humiliation, “Xiao Yebai, are you angry and embarrassed because I hit the nail on the head?”

He laughed loudly, “I wondered, when we were in school, why did you always have such a miserable face on, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, as if you were filled with sorrow, living a life of bitterness and hatred. When I returned to the country, I found out that you were nothing more than an adopted son of the Mo Family, you were just lucky to be adopted by them, and that little princess of the Mo Family took a liking to you. If not for that, who do you think you are? A poor boy from Tong Village, if not for your luck, you would probably spend your entire life picking up trash in the countryside…”

There was suddenly the faint sound of high heels coming from outside.

Ye Bei stopped quickly, his lips pressed together, turned around and opened the door.

As expected, Mo Weiyi was just coming down the hallway outside.

Wearing a pair of knee-high boots, the sound of her high heels clattering pleasantly. Her hair swaying freely on her shoulders as she walked.

When she saw Ye Bei, especially the blood at the corner of his mouth up close, the surprise was evident on Mo Weiyi’s face.

Ye Bei said nothing, merely nodded slightly to greet her, then left directly.

In stark contrast to his previous enthusiasm and attentiveness.

Mo Weiyi was taken aback.

What happened to him?

When she entered the ward, she carefully looked around.

Aside from a bouquet of lilies placed on a table, which was likely brought by Ye Bei.

There was no other place, compared to when she left, nothing seemed different, and there was no sign of a fight.

The man on the bed still sat there coldly and indifferently, as if nothing happened.

But she clearly saw the blood on the corner of Ye Bei’s mouth.

There were only two of them in the room, surely… Ye Bei didn’t hurt himself?

Moreover, it was evident that the punch was quite heavy. A grown man was hit until he bled, no doubt a lot of force was used.

“Xiaobai, did you have a conflict with Ye Bei just now?” she asked cautiously.

Xiao Yebai’s handsome face didn’t show any emotion, “Not exactly.”

Not exactly?

So that was it.

Mo Weiyi immediately asked, “Why did you hit him? Did he say something to make you unhappy? Or did he annoy you in some way?”

Xiao Yebai was not the kind of man who would resort to violence at the slightest provocation.

For all this time, although he knew he was physically capable, it seems he only ever used violence during that one time when she was in trouble.

On normal days, he gave the impression of a genteel business elite, wearing plain glasses, dressed in a sharp shirt and trousers, refined, calm, and no one would suppose him to have such a violent and brutal side.

Xiao Yebai raised his eyes to look at her, due to the absence of glasses, his eyes held evident emotion.

Then, he slowly uttered a hum of affirmation.

Mo Weiyi said, “Then you should avoid seeing him in the future. Among your classmates, I don’t like Tian Ye or Ye Bei, only… Zhan Yao seems fine.”

Hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared in Xiao Yebai’s calm expression, “Zhan Yao?”

“Yeah, Zhan Yao is handsome, witty, knowledgeable, and I quite enjoy chatting with him.”

Most importantly, he helped Xiao Yebai persuade her last time. He must truly consider him a good friend to speak highly of him like that.

However, Mo Weiyi didn’t mention this.

She walked over and held up Xiao Yebai’s right hand, which did not have an IV inserted.

However, Xiao Yebai asked, “Is Zhan Yao handsome?”

Mo Weiyi sat down in the chair and while checking his hand, she nonchalantly answered, “Zhan Yao is pretty good-looking, but I wonder why he doesn’t have a girlfriend?”

Xiao Yebai responded indifferently, “Probably because his EQ and IQ are too low.”

“Ah?” Mo Weiyi’s finger movement paused.

Zhan Yao’s EQ and IQ are too low?

But isn’t he a police officer?

“What are you looking at?” Xiao Yebai’s voice suddenly rang out again.

Mo Weiyi returned to her senses, “Oh, you just hit him, so I wanted to see if your hand was injured.”

“No.” Xiao Yebai’s thin lips curled into a mocking smile, “It’s just dirty.”

Mo Weiyi couldn’t help but chuckle, her voice soft and obedient, “Then let me help you clean it.”

She stood up, fetched a box of wet tissues from the side table, sat back down by the hospital bed, took his hand, and began to wipe it gently with the tissue.

She was wiping meticulously, starting from the thumb, cleaning from top to bottom, and then she began to wipe the second finger.

She finished cleaning instrumentally, one finger at a time till all five were done, then she wiped the back of the hand and then the palm.

She was careful and tender, handling it as though it was a precious and fragile item.

When she was done, she spoke with a smile, “From now on, don’t be reckless. What if you hurt yourself? These beautiful hands of yours should be playing the piano for me.”

“Didn’t you dislike the piano the most?” The man’s voice remained cool and indifferent as always.

“Yes, I do dislike it, but if it’s you, Xiaobai, who was playing it for me, I might be able to listen to it reluctantly.” Mo Weiyi raised her head, blinking her clear and distinct cat eyes.

There was a certain expectation in her eyes.

Xiao Yebai simply replied perfunctorily, seemingly not understanding her hint.

A sigh welled up in Mo Weiyi’s heart.

But…

Nevermind.

Take it slowly.

You can’t expect a man who has been indifferent for ten years to suddenly become warm and affectionate just because of a cold war that hasn’t lasted a month, right? To do things like playing the piano?

She could wait.

Personally, knowing that he has her in his heart, she really could wait.

X District’s courtyard, the Huo family residence.

Su Wanwan was awoken by the sound of firecrackers this morning.

Most of the people living in the courtyard are retired old cadre. It was New Year’s, so many had returned with their children. People had been setting off fireworks and firecrackers all night. According to the custom in Nancheng, people got up early on the first day of Lunar New Year; thus, many were setting off firecrackers punctually at six or seven o’clock.

So when the ‘booming’ sound of firecrackers exploded right beyond the window, Su Wanwan was startled, making her shiver.

Although Huo Jingshen quickly covered her ears, Su Wanwan started to become restless in the bed and squirmed here and there. She finally quieted after about half an hour and fell asleep again.

But the peace was short-lived.

“Thud thud thud!”

The door to their room was suddenly knocked again, so Su Wanwan started being restless again, squirming restlessly, using both her hands and feet.

After being kicked several times, Huo Jingshen had a gloomy face and yelled, “Grandma, don’t knock anymore, Wanwan is sleeping.”

It was quiet outside the room for a moment, and then the voice of old Master Huo roared, “You guys kept us up late last night, and you still won’t get up early in the morning! It’s disgraceful!”

Huo Jingshen: “…”

Was…

Everything last night heard?

He looked down at Su Wanwan’s sleeping face and felt relieved… luckily, he had covered her ears; she hadn’t heard his grandfather’s yell. Otherwise, she would’ve definitely exploded at him.

When old Master Huo returned downstairs, he was scolded by old Mrs. Huo.

“Are you blind? The young couple finally stayed at home for a night, sleeping on a new bed, they might have been a little excited… can’t you empathize? Also, you ran upstairs to knock on their door! Do you even have a flicker of EQ as an elder?”

With a stern face, old Master Huo replied, “Nuanyang got up before six to exercise, and this older brother is still lazing in bed with his wife past seven.”

“That’s because Nuanyang is a loner! Wait until he’s married, he’ll probably be more restless than his brother, just like you used to be!”

Old Master Huo’s face turned beet red: “You…”

This woman, always saying inappropriate things, blurting out whatever comes to her mind!

She’s utterly shameless!

“Good morning, Grandpa Huo, Grandma Huo, Happy New Year.” Fu Qi entered the dining room, followed by Fu Ziyang.

The little boy was wearing a new outfit old Mrs. Huo had prepared in advance: a red jacket and camouflage denim pants, looking smart and handsome.

“Good morning, great-grandpa, great-grandma, Happy New Year.”

“Good morning! Hurry up and get ready to eat yuanbao (gold ingots/dumplings). Old Mrs. Huo laughed till her eyes were almost closed.

When the servants brought up the dumplings and glutinous rice balls, even Huo Nuanyang came in for breakfast. Fu Qi couldn’t help asking, “Grandma Huo, aren’t we waiting for Brother Jingshen and sister-in-law to eat together?”

Old Mrs. Huo began laughing even harder at his words, “No, no, let them sleep in. They must have been very passionate last night. Maybe, Wanwan already has my great-grandson in her belly hahaha!”

Old Master Huo: “…”

That woman, how can she say such words in front of the children?
