This one simple gesture triggered the weakness in the man and let him close his eyes in agony.
A bitter smile briefly crossed Xiyan's face. Xia Yuwei's baby would not be the one growing up without a father, but her baby would.
How ridiculous, as if she was the third one.
“Leave…” she pointed at the direction of the door, her voice frosty.
Yuwei refused to respect her request, shaking her head, and seized Xiyan's sleeve.
“Sister He, you haven't promised me yet. Can you agree to forget about Yixuan?”
“Just leave!” Xiyan didn't care to spare one more word with the woman. She stayed away after divorce, and yet they showed up uninvited.
“Sister He…”
Xia tried to say more but was pulled away as Hao lightly shoved her hand off Xiyan.
“Get out!”
Upon the man's bark Xia stumbled back and completed her series of movements with an abrupt fall on the floor.
“Ah…”
She quickly put her hand in her stomach in a cry, her face crumpling from severe pain.
Li rushed to her immediately.
“Are you alright, Weiwei?” She became so nervous that her face turned red, her forehead sleek with sweat.
“Mother… It hurt, my stomach,” she kept massaging around her stomach, her lips pulled tightly together.
Xiyan watched the whole act, her hand firmly holding Hao's.
“What's wrong with her?” Hao asked with a frown, surprised. He did use some strength but definitely not enough to pull off any damage.
“Don't mind her. She's pretending.” Xiyan sparred her a look with contempt. She really knew her tricks. It's the second time she played this, is it? Can she be real for one time?
“Yixuan,” Li barked at her son who was standing in vacuous, “What are you doing up there? Hurry, get Yuwei to hospital.”
Her voice was so pitched in the room that it practically hurt to hear.
Yixuan went to get Yuwei up from the floor, “What happened?” Eyebrows furrowed, he saw it, Ye Hao flinging her hand, but he couldn't quite deduce how a harmless fling threw her to the ground.
Yuwei led his hand to her stomach, tearing up, “Yixuan, it hurt so much. Can we please go?” Said her in throes, her hand firmly holding onto the man's arm.
Yixuan carried her up in his arms with his eyes remained pinned on Xiyan and Hao, on their holding hands. He felt his heart just shatter.
“Yanyan, come back to Ye City with me!” He insisted.
Xiyan turned her face away, deadpan.
“I won't go back with you,” she said impassively, “Yixuan, please don't forget that Xia Yuwei is your wife now. If you want me to be happy, you will wish me well. And by the way, Xia Yuwei deliberately put herself on the ground, be it a month before or just then.”
Xia started to get nervous and sweat out on her accusation of her pretending.
“Yixuan, I didn't, I didn't…” She cried in denial, hugging his neck.
Li shoved her son forward.
“Let's go, Yixuan. Don't mind this vicious woman who would rather everyone else be unable to have a baby just like her. Such an evil.”

Chapter 56: How Could You Fall For Such A ManTranslator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
After that family left in a hurry, silence finally fell upon the house.
It was so quiet that only the sounds of breathing could be heard.
He Xiyan slammed the door shut and locked it, afraid that they might visit again.
She dragged Ye Hao to the sofa and went to take an ice cube from the refrigerator, then carefully used a handkerchief to wrap it. The ice cube was extremely cold and her hands were frozen stiff as she held it.
“Use this first.” She gently pressed the handkerchief that contained the ice cube to Ye Hao's cheek. Her heart suddenly ached, as though an insect had bitten it.
This was all her fault. She had caused so much trouble and he even came all the way here only to end up getting into a fight because of her. His face was swollen and she could even see bruises under his neck.
“Does it hurt?” She asked in a small voice as tears clouded her eyes.
“What do you think?” Ye Hao glanced at her with a scowl.
He was secretly pleased and even delighted to know that this woman was concerned about him. He could see the remorse and concern in her eyes when she looked at him. If she was concerned about him, does that mean that she was falling for him too?
“I'm sorry!” He Xiyan bit her lips and under the lamplight, her face turned red, then white as she felt even more guilty.
Ye Hao coughed softly then reached out to pat the back of her head.
“Are you dumb? That man was so scrawny and looks just like an ungrateful, unfaithful person. Did your brain stop functioning? How could you fall for a man like that?” That man looked like a boy toy and he was willing to bet that he only looked good on the outside but could barely function in bed.
How could this woman…
Ye Hao kept his criticism to himself but he could not stop jealousy from coursing through his body and his teeth ached from holding it all back.
He Xiyan turned her face away. As he spouted those nonsensical words, she felt her heart ache and at the same time, she felt dejected.
“I'll go cook something to eat.” She rose to her feet and headed into the kitchen.
Ye Hao finally remembered that his mother was still waiting for him to bring He Xiyan home for dinner. He frowned and ultimately decided against heading home. If he showed up in this state, his mother would definitely kick up a huge fuss.
“Mum, I'll be having dinner over at He Xiyan's place and will only return home later. Please don't wait up for us to have dinner.” He called his mother to notify her, keeping his words concise and brief.
Soon, Xia Jingshu's voice could be heard berating him, “Look here, this is all your fault. I told you to go invite her earlier, but now, she has probably finished cooking. Anyway, you should sleep somewhere else tonight. Don't come back.”
Xia Jingshu hung up and no one knew that at that moment, a broad smile had spread across her face.
He Xiyan had finished cooking and whipped up three simple dishes – Kung Pao chicken, Yuxiang shredded pork and a bowl of egg soup.
As someone who was born in a village, she had started doing all sorts of household chores from a young age and was a good cook. Naturally, the food she cooked was delicious and were authentic home-cooked dishes.
Ye Hao ate most of the food heartily. After tasting her food, eating his mother's cooking seemed extremely bland.
“He Xiyan, what is your monthly salary?” He suddenly asked the woman. She had been eating very slowly, keeping her head bowed as she ate.
He Xiyan looked up and blinked in confusion, baffled by Ye Hao's question.
“If I give you the same salary, would you quit your job and be my personal chef?” He asked excitedly.
Inwardly, he told himself that there was no way he would give her a salary. The perfect solution was to marry her, then he would be able to eat her cooking every day.
