Chapter 1101: It’s A Little Messy

Ye Zhifan smothered the butt of his cigarette on the ashtray and stood up as he looked at his daughter. He frowned and asked, “Why aren’t you sleeping at this time? Did I wake you up?” His gaze landed on Ye Ying’s right hand that was holding a pen. He furrowed his brows even more. “You’re staying up late to revise again! Even if you want to study, you shouldn’t stay awake until so late. Why didn’t your mom remind you? Where is your mom?”

“Dad, I was secretly revising. Mom doesn’t know about it. I don’t have any problems. You’re the one that seems troubled.” Ye Ying seemed afraid that Ye Zhifan would blame Sun Dongqing so she replied hurriedly, “You look bothered. Did something happen at work?”

She pursed her lips tightly and gave a worried expression. “You’re already very busy during the day. Sometimes, you still need to socialize at night. You should take care of your health when you’re at home. I’m alright. Mom will take care of me.”

“You’re so tired so you need to rest more. If not, Mom and I will be worried for you.”

As Ye Zhifan climbed higher in his role, he started coming back later and later at night. Sun Dongqing didn’t really care but Ye Ying cared!

18 years old was a sensitive age. Also, in school, she regularly heard her classmates saying that their father had an illegitimate child with a mistress outside and wanted to divorce their mother. After hearing so much, Ye Ying felt a little frightened.

Mind you, Ye Zhifan was a member of the provincial office now but Sun Dongqing was still the same Sun Dongqing. She never progressed after so many years and just knew how to enjoy.

Fortunately, she learned how to dress up and maintain her image. To ensure that she was able to stand up straight in front of the other official’s wives, she realized that she needed to lose weight. Her mental state hadn’t caught up with Ye Zhifan but her image wouldn’t embarrass Ye Zhifan.

Ye Zhifan didn’t know what was on his daughter’s mind. However, he still felt happy when he heard his daughter caring for him. He smiled and said, “Your father’s fine. You need to go to school for tuition tomorrow so you need to wake up early. Hurry up and go to bed. I will sleep now.”

Ye Ying didn’t insist anymore. She said softly, “Have an early rest. Good night!”

When she reached the door, Ye Zhifan suddenly called her, “Yingying, did your grandma call recently?”

“No. I didn’t receive any calls from grandma. However, mom might have received it,” Ye Ying replied naturally. This year, the contact between her family with her aunt and her grandma increased. However, most of the time, her grandma was the one who called them. She continued, “Every time grandma called, she would be looking for you. Mom will always dismiss her request.”

Ye Zhifan believed this entirely.

Now that his rank was very high, Sun Dongqing was able to straighten her back when facing the old lady who had harmed her when she was young. Hence, as long as it was related to her family or Sun Dongqing herself, she wouldn’t be polite to the old lady.

Sun Dongqing’s heart was always with this family and her husband so no matter how unhappy he was with her, he was able to accept her.

Ye Zhifan didn’t probe further. He asked his daughter to go to sleep while he stayed in his study for a long time without getting up.

The next day, when Sun Dongqing was preparing breakfast for her daughter, she felt a little angry. “What’s wrong with your dad? He’s like a cannon this morning. I asked him something and he shouted back at me. When I asked him to send you to school, he said that he had no time! Are there any fathers like him?”

“Mom, you should show more concern to Dad! It’s useless if you worry about my studies. You won’t be able to help me anyway. Instead of talking about Dad around me every day, why don’t you ask Dad what happened in the past few days? Also, Dad suddenly asked me if Grandma had called recently. Dad has never asked this before so something must have happened! If you want him to treat you better, Mom, you should at least know what’s bothering him!”
