Chapter 35 - 35 035 Sending you

?35: 035 Sending you?

(Two in One) 35: 035 Sending you?

(Two in One) Qiao Yufen’s nearly closed eyes reflexively opened wide as she looked at Xu He, who had collapsed a second before her, a quirky expression surfacing on her face, “She was just fine…

Could she be pretending?”

Such a schemer!

“Mom!

Xiaohe has fainted, how can you say something like that?”

Xia Yuzheng had been somewhat critical of Xia Ye’s willfulness.

It wasn’t easy for him to find a school, and she was picky and talked back to her elders.

But now that his wife had fainted, he couldn’t care about anything else.

He quickly changed his previous attitude, which had been biased toward his mother, to become protectively devoted to his wife.

Qiao Yufen got anxious, “What did I say?

She just…”

Xia Yourong gently tugged at her sleeve to remind her, “Grandma, Mom also fainted once before when she went to the countryside…”

Xu He’s health had always been poor, and this wasn’t the first time she had fainted.

Therefore, no one at the scene doubted it.

Xia Yuzheng very manly picked up his wife and called the family doctor over.

Nanny Wu quickly directed the other servants to get things ready.

Qiao Yufen watched as everyone surrounded Xu He and gritted her teeth in immense frustration.

But Xu He had already fainted, and for her to faint again would be too fake!

When Xu He was carried away, Xia Ye noticed her elegantly placed right hand scratching the back of her left hand.

Though the movement was slight.

Xia Ye blinked in mild shock, chuckled softly, and his furrowed brows relaxed.

He liked this mother of his a bit.

After the family doctor had examined her, Xia Yuzheng took him outside.

“Doctor, my wife, she…”

The doctor raised his hand to indicate him to not be anxious, looked around, and whispered something in his ear.

Xia Yuzheng’s expression froze, and after a few seconds, he nodded apologetically at the doctor and instructed Wang Dahai to send the doctor home.

Upon returning to the room, Xia Yuzheng closed the door and glanced at his wife lying on the bed, shaking his head helplessly.

“Alright, stop pretending, you really scared me to death.”

Upon hearing this, Xu He took a while before slowly opening her eyes and propped herself up by her hands, “Oh well, I wasn’t completely pretending, I really did feel dizzy all of a sudden.”

Xia Yuzheng helped her bolster the pillow at her waist, “Did you hurt yourself when you fell just now?”

Even if her fainting was fake, he still felt pain for the fall.

Xu He felt warmth in her heart, “Thanks to Little Tiangao who supported me, it didn’t hurt at all.”

Xia Yuzheng glared at her unhappily, “With your daughter back, have you also regressed to a little girl?

Have you thought about the consequences if you really upset the old lady to a serious extent?”

Xu He was not a lavish person, it was just an impulsive reaction in a moment of urgency.

She patted Xia Yuzheng’s hand, “I was wrong~”

Three words expressed the deeply nuanced emotions she felt.

Xia Yuzheng had no temper at all.

Seeing her husband wasn’t mad, she thought back on the recent events, still worried, “About Little Tiangao’s schooling…

what are you planning to do?”

Considering Little Tiangao’s attitude today, she really seemed to want to attend Beijing No.1 Middle School with Yourong.

Xu He couldn’t help feeling sad, such tough luck.

Xia Yuzheng was actually shocked by his daughter’s request today too.

Hearing Xu He bring it up, his expression unconsciously turned grave.

He too wished for his daughters to attend the same prestigious high school.

But First Middle School was filled with top students from all regions; she had no foundation, and even if she got in, it might not be a good thing.

Moreover, the threshold for First Middle School was high, and Principal Tian was notoriously impartial and difficult to persuade.

With Yeye’s condition, it was simply not possible.

Xia Yuzheng sighed deeply; of course, he wouldn’t take Xia Ye’s words about going to the principal himself seriously.

After a long silence, “Let me think of another way…”

Early the next morning, Mrs.

Wu saw Xia Ye wandering in the living room.

Her reckless words from yesterday had already spread among the servants.

“Miss Xia, what are you looking for now?”

Xia Ye lifted her chin, “Do you have a fountain pen?”

Mrs.

Wu furrowed her brows — who still used fountain pens to write these days?

Yet the Xia family indeed had one.

Mrs.

Wu fetched one for her.

Xia Ye took the pen, her slender ankles hooked around the leg of a chair next to the dining table.

She slightly pulled it out, swung herself around to sit down, spread a sheet of paper on the table, and with a flourish of the pen, elegant characters began to fill the page.

Xia Yourong walked by with a cup of milk.

She glanced at Xia Ye’s hands and stopped.

“Sister, I remember you played games with your left hand yesterday.

Why are you writing with your right hand today?

Are you truly left-handed or not?”

Xia Ye lifted her finger, and the pen twirled nimbly at her fingertip, as if alive.

“Guess?”

Xia Yourong scoffed.

She had asked casually, as if she really wanted to know?

As for what Xia Ye was writing, she couldn’t care less — surely it was full of typos and nonsense!

She had woken up particularly early today for another matter…

“Oh right, sister, didn’t you want to meet Principal Tian?” Xia Yourong, in a good mood, pulled up a chair next to Xia Ye, resting her chin on her hands, looking quite innocent.

Xia Ye lazily looked up, “Do you know where he is?”

“Of course,” Xia Yourong said with a triumphant expression, “Principal Tian is at school today.

I have to rehearse for the opening ceremony.

Why don’t we go to school together?”

Mom, dad, and grandma would never let Xia Ye meet Principal Tian and embarrass herself, but Xia Yourong insisted on helping Xia Ye meet him.

Ideally, Xia Ye would create a scene in front of Principal Tian and end up being thrown out by the security guards.

Then grandma would certainly scold her to death!

Even mom couldn’t save her!

Fearing someone might discover and stop them, Xia Yourong didn’t even eat breakfast; she grabbed a sandwich from the fridge and hurried Xia Ye out.

Unfortunately, as they approached the main gate, they saw Wang Dahai standing next to the car, scratching his head as he looked at the tires.

“Uncle Wang, is the car broken?”

Wang Dahai: “Yes, Miss Xia and Miss Xia, if you are in a hurry to go out, you should ask sir or the younger master to drive you.”

Xia Yourong’s face showed difficulty, as they would definitely not let Xia Ye meet Principal Tian.

As they wondered what to do, a very handsome car happened to pass by, seeming to notice them, it slowed down and stopped in front of them.

Xia Yourong had seen countless luxury cars, but she was suddenly at a loss for words, unable to recall this car’s brand.

It was a subdued black, yet it had an imposing brilliance that demanded attention.

It shimmered in the sunshine.

Dazzled for a moment, the car window lowered and the man in the driver’s seat, dressed in a dark suit with subtle pinstripes, with high cheekbones and a prominent Adam’s apple, had a sharply contoured handsome profile.

“Uncle Jiang?” Xia Yourong exclaimed with delighted surprise.

It was rare for someone of his status to drive himself, and it was curious why he was in such good spirits today.

The slight uplift at the corners of his eyes was somewhat aloof.

His eyes, too attractive, appeared tranquil even without a smile.

His arm casually rested on the open window, complemented by the luxury car, perfectly embodying the persona of a powerful CEO.

Xia Yourong was transfixed.

She had been watching Jiang Xuan, but Jiang Xuan was looking at Xia Ye, while Xia Ye was observing Wang Dahai, who kept his gaze on the deflated tire.

After a moment, Jiang Xuan cleared his throat, his deep, melodious voice broke the silence: “Shall I give you a lift?”
