Chapter 301: Chapter 301: Brother, My Foot is Hot Chapter 301: Chapter 301: Brother, My Foot is Hot Ye Sihan’s gaze softened as he looked at the pale, slender fingers clutching at his clothes. With a deep voice, he said, “Eat.” He loosened his grip on her hand.

Tang Yu sat on the bed, her mind in turmoil.

Eat? Who’s eating? Where to eat?

As she was lost in thought, Ye Sihan brought in some vegetable porridge, sat down on the edge of the bed, and began to feed her himself.

Tang Yu looked at the porridge brought to her lips, her mouth motionless, her clear eyes somewhat bewildered.

“You can only eat light food for now.”

It wasn’t that Tang Yu was picky about food, but why was Ye Sihan treating her like this again?

One moment he was ignoring her completely, and the next he was there in front of her, personally feeding her.

His unpredictable mood swings made her unable to understand…

“Why won’t you see me? Lin Shuhuan said you have another woman, but I don’t believe it. It’s not because of that, is it?” Tang Yu asked eagerly.

Ye Sihan, with a spoon in his hand, gazed at her with deep, profound eyes, and after a moment finally spoke with an imposing tone, “Are you going to eat or not?”

He didn’t answer Tang Yu’s question.

Tang Yu’s heart sank.

Why no answer? Did silence mean consent?

Scared that Ye Sihan would leave, she opened her mouth and ate the porridge before he lost his patience.

After finishing the porridge, she took her medicine.

Just as Ye Sihan was about to rise, Tang Yu threw herself at him, burying her head in his chest, her voice muffled and pitiful, “Don’t go, okay? When I sleep alone, my feet get so cold… and when my feet are cold, I think of you…”

Ye Sihan should have pushed her away, after all, Tang Yu wasn’t going to die now.

However, as he raised his hand, he felt the dampness on his chest.

It was wet with tears.

It burned that inch of skin.

The body curled up against his chest was weak and slim, the disparity in their strength all too evident, trembling slightly.

And the clothes around her waist were clutched tight, as if she was insecure, afraid that he might run away.

Finally, Ye Sihan’s hand embraced her back completely, enfolding her, “Sleep.”

Tang Yu’s tears fell harder; she was already unwell, and now crying made her head swell with pain.

“No more crying,” Ye Sihan’s authoritative voice demanded.

Tang Yu held back her tears but her body kept shaking subtly.

She lifted her face, wet and with eyes brimming with moisture, clear and innocent.

She moved closer on her own, bringing her soft lips to his, with a pleading tone, “Don’t be mad, okay? Let’s be like we were before, alright? I can stay away from the Ye Mansion…”

Ye Sihan looked at her pitiful expression, his heart throbbed, and then, irritated, he pressed her into the bedding.

His lips forcefully claimed hers.

Tang Yu nestled softly underneath him, her feet gently rubbing against Ye Sihan’s leg.

Ye Sihan grunted softly, his hand clutching her slender ankle, “Asking for trouble now?”

With Tang Yu’s current state, she would end up in the hospital.

Gasping for breath, Tang Yu looked up at the man she longed for, her voice soft and tender, “This kind of intimacy… could you catch it too?”

“Yes,” Ye Sihan answered without hesitation.

“Ah…” Tang Yu was startled, “Then you should take medicine now.”

Just as her hand reached out from under the covers to grab the medicine on the bedside table, Ye Sihan pulled her back, got off her, wrapped his arms around her, and commanded firmly, “Sleep.”

Tang Yu curled up in his arms, her feet instinctively seeking warmth within his thighs, immediately feeling comforted.

Like a cat, her head rubbed against his chest, “Don’t go…”

“Stop moving,” Ye Sihan tightened his grip on her head, his breathing slightly heavy.

Tang Yu, realizing something, stayed still.

After a while, she mumbled, “I can…”

“I’m not interested in the sick,” he replied.

Tang Yu wondered within if that meant he was interested in Yi Die?

During this time, had he touched another woman?

But she didn’t dare to ask, afraid of getting a confirmation…

Only after feeling the rhythmic breathing of the person in her arms did Ye Sihan’s tense nerves slightly relax. It had been a long time since he’d done this.

Before, his blood was always cold.

Whenever he touched Tang Yu, his blood would boil, to the point where his veins throbbed, and he had to endure!

Just as Ye Sihan was about to separate a little, the person in his arms burrowed even deeper, with hands clutching his clothes, so he gave up.

Reaching over to the bedside table for the thermometer, he placed it in Tang Yu’s ear to check her temperature. She still had a bit of fever.

But her feet were not warm enough.

Ye Sihan removed his pants under the covers, allowing her feet to come into direct contact with the skin on his legs.

Covering her like that.

Because she had taken fever reducer, Tang Yu would sweat, and once sweating, she would kick off the blankets.

Ye Sihan didn’t give her the chance, holding her the whole time, his legs trapping her feet.

Once the effect passed, she finally settled down.

After sleeping for two or three hours, Tang Yu awoke and instinctively reached for the person beside her, only to find emptiness.

Her eyes flew open; Ye Sihan was gone.

Had he left?

Tang Yu hurried out of bed, flinging the covers aside and stumbling out of the room.

As she caught the aroma of food, she joyfully ran towards the kitchen.

But Ye Sihan was nowhere to be seen, only the meal in the thermos box.

It was Ye Sihan who had cooked her homestyle food.

Tang Yu knew that Ye Sihan had made it for her before leaving.

Although she didn’t see him, the sight of the meal he prepared provided her some comfort.

And she looked forward to when he would come over again…

So no matter how poor Tang Yu’s appetite was, she still ate quite a bit.

Upon returning to her room, she had just sat down on the edge of the bed when she noticed the photo on the bedside table.

She had been in such a hurry to find Ye Sihan earlier that she hadn’t noticed it.

Picking it up, she saw it was the candid shot from Christmas Day, with the four little ones nestled in Ye Sihan’s arms, each revealing their adorable happiness.

Ye Sihan, meanwhile, was lowering his face to kiss her lips.

Everything was so unexpected, only Tang Yu’s beautiful eyes appeared wide with surprise and shyness.

This wasn’t the original, but a print made for her.

However, it was already enough.

For Tang Yu, there was no difference.

Lying in bed, looking at the photo, a sweet smile spread across her lips, injecting some vitality into her sickly appearance.

She had even fallen asleep in the afternoon clutching the photo.

When she woke up, the sky outside was a grim gray.

Then she heard some noises outside.

After dressing, Tang Yu stepped out of her room just in time to see Ye Sihan walking out of the kitchen.

She was suddenly caught in the gaze of his dark eyes, so deep she couldn’t look away.

“When… when did you come?” Tang Yu asked.

“Not long ago,” Ye Sihan turned back toward the kitchen, “It’s time to eat.”

“I… I’ll help you.”

“Sit down,” Ye Sihan said sternly.

Tang Yu obediently turned and sat at the table, waiting to eat like a child.

Only after Ye Sihan had sat down did she begin to eat, occasionally glancing at him across the table, “I saw the photo, I will keep it safe.”

“Just a photo. Was it worth standing in the snow for hours?” Ye Sihan stared at her, his dark eyes profound.

Tang Yu nodded, “Yeah, for me, it’s not just any photo. It has you, me, and the children in it.”

Actually, there were previous occasions at the Ye Mansion and on the yacht out at sea when all six of them were captured together in photos.

But the one from Christmas was different.

The fiery kiss and the quickened heartbeat created a beautiful and blissful atmosphere at the time.

Ye Sihan watched her, silent.

“By the way, are the children at the Ye Mansion?”

“Yes.”

“I’m sick now and can’t bring them here,” Tang Yu didn’t want to infect the children. “Then… after we eat, are you going back tonight?”

“It depends,” Ye Sihan didn’t give her a definite answer.

That made Tang Yu’s heart flutter with uncertainty.

She hoped Ye Sihan would stay.

When she realized she had that wish, she felt as though she was losing her mind, not even considering the children left at the Ye Mansion.

Tang Yu had no idea what Ye Sihan was waiting to see.

But he ended up staying.

Her temperature had gone down after they finished dinner.

Even so, Tang Yu still couldn’t take a bath.

Currently, she sat on the bed waiting for Ye Sihan to come after his bath.

Hearing movement outside, then the door opening, Tang Yu watched the man in pajamas come in and shifted her body to make space in the bed.

Ye Sihan glanced at her and climbed into bed.

After lying down, Tang Yu snuggled up to him, her feet pressing against his legs.

Ye Sihan was silent for a while, then turned to embrace her in his arms.

Tang Yu curled up in his embrace, feeling wrapped and warmed by his heat, very comfortable.

It made her otherwise uncomfortable body feel much better.

“Ye Sihan…”

“Mhm.”

“Are you sure you don’t need any medicine?”

“No, I don’t.”

Tang Yu fell silent, but after a while she asked again, “Ye Sihan, will you come tomorrow?”

“We’ll talk about tomorrow, tomorrow.”

Tang Yu lifted her face to meet Ye Sihan’s, the closeness causing a flutter in her chest, her clear eyes trembling.

Ye Sihan remained silent, looking at her, his dark eyes bottomless.

“Brother, my feet are warm now,” Tang Yu whispered softly.

Ye Sihan’s chest tightened, his breath suppressed, “Let’s sleep.”

“Okay.” Tang Yu, seeing his expression change, quickly lowered her head and closed her eyes.

Curled up in the warm, safe embrace, Tang Yu soon fell asleep.

But Ye Sihan felt like he was about to explode!

The next day at KING Corporation, his face was terrible.

From the moment Ye Sihan walked through the doors of KING Corporation, a low pressure surrounded him, making people afraid to breathe too loudly.

“Where’s the report I asked you to get yesterday?” Ye Sihan’s presence was oppressive, his gaze sharp.

“The financial report? Uh, it’s in my office, I’ll go get it right now,” Xiao Yu didn’t dare to delay and immediately turned to get it.

Even though Mr. Ye had said a three-day deadline was okay the day before yesterday, he didn’t dare to argue!

Mr. Ye looked like a man in dire need!
