Chapter 1,218: Back to the Castle

When He Xiyan returned to the castle, it was already evening.

At this time, Xixi was playing chess and chatting with her father in the hall, and was also waiting for her mother to come back.

Seeing the familiar figure at the door, the two stopped playing.

Xixi walked over happily and stood in front of her mother, "Mom, how is it? Are you having fun?" Xixi asked with a smile, revealing the shallow dimples on her cheeks.

She and her father had been waiting for her mother for a while.

He Xiyan paused, but her eyes seemed to be unable to focus. She looked at her daughter, raised the corners of her mouth, and wanted to smile, but what she showed was a bitter smile.

"Xixi, Mom is tired, go to rest first." He Xiyan's voice was particularly low and hoarse, and the haggardness and fatigue could be seen on her face.

Xixi: Ah... Xixi looked at her mother in confusion, with a pair of amber eyes wide open. She found that her mother seemed to have not rested for a few days, and looked listless and without any spirit.

Why, is it so tiring to drink a wedding wine?

Ye Hao also came out at this time.

"You haven't eaten yet, Yanyan." Ye Hao said with concern. At this time, he also noticed the haggardness on Yanyan's face, and the faint sadness in her eyes.

Xinru was suddenly cut by a knife. Ye Hao bit his lip, and a complex emotion flashed across his face under the light, just like his mood at the moment. He naturally knew why she had a bad mood and expression.

He Xiyan shook her head at Ye Hao: "I'm not hungry, you go eat."

After that, she walked around her daughter and went upstairs, leaving the father and daughter in the hall.

Xixi shook her head speechlessly, not understanding what happened to her mother? She didn't look happy at all, as if she had suffered some grievances.

Ye Hao looked at He Xiyan's back, watching her go upstairs step by step, listening to her seemingly heavy footsteps, and at this time, his mood was equally heavy.

He turned his head to look at his daughter, patted her daughter on the shoulder, and said: "Okay, Xixi, let's go to eat first, let your mother rest first."

Ye Hao's voice was as heavy as if it came from his chest.

Xixi hummed, but she was still puzzled.

"Dad." He looked up at his father and asked, "Did Mom suffer any grievances during the wedding banquet?"

Xixi didn't think that her mother was just tired just now.

Ye Hao pursed his lips and smiled bitterly.

He knew that there was no wedding banquet.

"Let's go eat."

At this time, Ye Hao didn't know how to answer his daughter.

The father and daughter went to the restaurant together. Neither of them had a good appetite. They only ate one bowl of rice and stopped eating.

——

In the bedroom on the second floor, He Xiyan lay on the sofa. Under the white light, her face was as white as if she was covered with a layer of powder.

She had no expression on her face, her eyes were dim, and she looked haggard and tired.

She lay there for almost half an hour.

Until she heard a knock on the door.

"Mom..."

Standing outside the door was her daughter.

He Xiyan sighed, hesitated for a while, sat up from the sofa, and slowly walked to the door.

However, the moment she opened the door, in addition to her daughter, her ex-husband Ye Hao also appeared at the door.

Both of them had something in their hands.

Ye Hao was carrying food, while Xixi was carrying a few bags.

"Mom, Dad and I went to the mall today, and Dad bought you clothes and shoes."
