After hanging up the phone, He Xingzhou frowned, thinking over and over on the phone, looking at the beautiful face on the screen, his eyes were red, as if he had just cried.

Thinking about it in his heart, a voice came from downstairs, He Xingzhou got up and walked outside the study.

The woman was really changing shoes at the entrance, and Lovra was just jumping on the side. She seemed to be wondering, she usually played with her, why did she ignore her today?

Looking at the snow-white fluffy lion, which formed a strong contrast with her small body, He Xingzhou walked down while deliberately serious.

"What time is it? Do you still know to come back?"

Yang Anning's heart was heavy, she was still thinking about what her grandma told her just now, when she suddenly heard a man's deep voice, she didn't react for a while, she was startled by him.

"what!"

"...What did you do to be so afraid of me?"

Seeing that she was really scared by him, He Xingzhou still felt a little inexplicably guilty, thinking about the circle of friends he saw just now, he was puzzled, and felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the woman, so he looked at it more carefully.

It's okay if you don't look at it, but after a closer look, it seems that there seems to be an unnatural blush on one side of the face.

"you've been drinking?"

Because standing next to her couldn't see clearly, He Xingzhou asked a question as a matter of course.

"No, I'm a little tired. Let's talk about something tomorrow, sorry."

The woman's voice was very low, with an indescribable tiredness and hoarseness, and she seemed to be in a bad mood.

"What the hell happened? You... who did it?"

Seeing that she was about to turn around and go upstairs after finishing speaking on her own, He Xingzhou reached out and grabbed her wrist, forcing her to stop.

Standing face to face, I could see the unnatural blush on her face. It was not a sign of drinking at all, but was beaten.

Thinking of her current situation in the Yang family, He Xingzhou immediately turned cold, and asked in a low and depressed voice.

"fine."

Yang Aning subconsciously wanted to open his hand, but unexpectedly the man held it tighter.

"Who did it?"

"...I'm really fine, don't ask me!"

Looking at the woman's dodging eyes, He Xingzhou had already guessed that if it wasn't for the Yang family, the woman would not have let it go.

"speak out."

"Let go of me! I'm really tired, I don't want... I don't want to quarrel anymore."

"So I told you to tell me something, no one can bully you, you know? No matter who it is! You can't bully my woman, He Xingzhou!"

Yang Anning struggled desperately, her voice was already crying.

Looking at her glowing red eyes, He Xingzhou felt as if his heart had been pricked by a needle, and the pain was severe.

He has always been a little wild cat who refuses to suffer. It must be very hard to suffer such a big grievance today.

"It's my dad."

"reason!"

He Xingzhou sighed, his tone softened, and he dragged her to the edge of the sofa to sit down.

"...So, what do you think?"

Yang Anning briefly explained what happened, and of course omitted the guesswork about his identity. Although everyone knew it was a cooperative relationship, since He Xingzhou had said from the very beginning that he did not intend to disclose their marriage identities, she Of course not so ignorant.

"What is there to think about? Why should I let others decide my life? Besides, what I do, I am the only one who bears the result. Why should I choose to let others point out?"

"..."

He Xingzhou didn't speak, just looked at the woman's red and swollen face, his brows became more and more wrinkled, he got up without saying a word, and walked towards the refrigerator.

Yang Anning watched him walk away, and was about to get up when she heard the man speak again.

"Sit still."

After speaking, he came back with an ice pack in his hand, and wrapped it in a towel thoughtfully.

"It's okay, it's not that serious, it should be fine tomorrow."

Yang Anning subconsciously dodged the hand that was about to apply ice to her, still in a very depressed state.

"I hope it gets better right away!"

He Xingzhou pulled down her slender wrist, and pressed the ice pack on her face involuntarily. The cold feeling was still very comfortable, although the moment it was put on it was a bit painful.

"...I want you to help me with something."

The two sat on the edge of the sofa so close to each other, the air gradually froze, and Yang Anning thought about it before opening her mouth.

"Ah."

"...Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow, I have to think about it."

He swallowed the words again when he reached the edge of his mouth. This matter is a bit complicated, so let's wait until he thinks it through clearly.

"Row."

Seeing that she was also exhausted, her small face was terribly pale, and she looked very tired and lacked energy. He Xingzhou didn't intend to make things difficult, and he could talk about anything the next day.

After a while, the man finally let her go and let her go to wash and sleep.

Standing in the middle of the water curtain in the bathroom, Yang Anning couldn't help feeling moved when she thought of the man's gentle ice compress just now.

I thought that a domineering person like him should be the one with a strong desire to control, how could he allow himself to speak halfway, but he didn't expect that he really didn't ask anything, and he knew it was to take care of his emotions.

Yang Anning's impression of him was getting better and better unconsciously, and she was even a little grateful to him.

What I need most now is this kind of buffering opportunity. Thinking of what she hesitated to say, Yang Anning's thoughts once again returned to her grandmother in the nursing home.

She grew up beside her grandma, especially in the current situation, the only one closest to her in the entire Yang family is her grandma, but the old man is getting old, and now he suffers from dementia, and his memory is not very good, so his impression of her is only stay at a young age.

As soon as we met, I called her nannie, and then started looking for snacks in the bedside cabinet, and took them out like offering treasures for her to eat.

Yang Anning had just cried, and she was in a very complicated mood. Seeing her grandma like this, she couldn't help crying even more.

Seeing her little granddaughter crying, grandma thought she didn't like these things, so she quickly dropped all the snacks in her hand, then turned her head and poked her hand into the cabinet.

Because her legs and feet were inconvenient and she was sitting in a wheelchair, her movements were very awkward. When she took things out of the cabinet, many others fell out and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

It took Yang Anning a while to regain her calm. Looking at the mess in the nursing home room, she felt guilty and moved. She chatted with her grandma for a while, then got up and cleaned up the mess in the cabinet.

According to the nurse, no one came to the Yang family for a long time, but she was used to it, so she was not surprised.

"Grandma, some of your things are useless, so I'll throw them away for you!"

Yang Anning looked at the messy boxes and papers in a small cabinet, as well as some worn out clothes that couldn't be worn at all, and couldn't help feeling sad.

"That won't work, that won't work."

As soon as she heard that Yang Anning was going to throw something for her, grandma immediately became anxious, pushing the wheelchair in a hurry, and robbed her of the boxes in her hand.
