Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

“Then what are you looking at?”

Ye Junchen adjusted his tie. “Let’s watch the program.”

Emma saw Ye Junchen and went forward. “Cousin.”

“Emma.” Ye Junchen was shocked. Tong Hua liked how she played the harmonica, and he had a good impression of her. Ye Junchen held onto Emma and asked her to sit down. Then, she introduced her to Ye Ling. This was their aunt’s younger daughter.

The affairs regarding their aunt in the European Ye Family was chaotic back then, and Ye Ling also heard a little about it. Emma sighed in relief. She knew that she had received the attention of the audience. A little assistant like her was able to sit at the main table. She felt that it was a big honor.

On the top floor.

Ye Chu felt really uncomfortable, and she was sweating profusely. She was not someone who felt warm easily, but she was sweating for some reason. Her back was wet, and her heart was palpitating wildly. Ye Tingyun thought that she was not feeling well. Ye Chu shook her head and curled up on the sofa. Ye Tingyun asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I don’t like…” Emma. She was just about to say it, but she felt like she would expose herself. She was blind, so why would she know who Emma was? How could she explain the fear in her heart?

“What do you not like?”

Ye Chu suddenly picked up a cushion and threw it in Ye Tingyun’s direction. She threw a temper. “Go! Go! I don’t want to see you, get lost!”

Her temper came in a weird manner. Ye Tingyun was used to her being temperamental and desire for attention. He did not get angry. He picked up the cushion and put it back. Then, he poured a glass of fresh milk over. Ye Chu hugged an apple toy, feeling panicky. When she felt calmer, Ye Tingyun passed her the glass of milk. “So, what’s wrong?”

“When you aren’t around, I get scared,” Ye Chu said. “I… dreamt about a lot of things lately…”

She could not tell if they were dreams or hallucinations.

“Okay, I won’t leave you. Finish the fresh milk, I’ll stay here with you.”

He could not leave the annual dinner. He had to at least let the employees see that he was there. So, he added some sleeping pills that could calm her down into the fresh milk. It was very effective, and Ye Chu felt exhausted a while after she drank it.

Ye Tingyun took a set of white pajamas over and helped her remove her clothes. He put on her pajamas for her quickly without looking around. His ears turned so red like blood. He put the blanket over Ye Chu and kissed her on the forehead lightly.

“Rest well. When you wake up, I will be by your side.”

He still had something to do, and he had to go down. He had something to ask Ye Junchen. Ye Chu did not sleep very well, and she had another dream. She hid behind the screen and showed half a small face. She was watching a couple argue.

“Emma is your daughter too. How could you not care for her? It’s time for her to attend school. Do you intend to leave her at the small castle to fend for herself? What ‘hard life’? What ‘curse to the family’? How could you blame her for the car accident?” The young lady was arguing.

“I don’t have the final say for this,” the man said. “It is such a coincidence that as soon as she was born, my mother died, and our family became messed up. She will still be growing up in a small castle. She will also grow up like a little princess, and we are not depriving her of anything. My father would not allow her to return. Stop causing trouble.”

“True. We never deprived her of clothing and food. So that’s your attitude towards your daughter? Have you even seen her ever since she was born? Have you ever carried her in your arms? Every special occasion, how many times have I said it? I want her to come back and reunite with us for once. If you ever knew how to be a father, you would have told the Old Master about it. But you don’t even dare to speak a word. Coward! She’s your daughter!”

“What choice do I have? There were so many matters clashing together. Her eyes… ”
