At the dinner table, after the nanny served the dishes, Xiao Li took the initiative to pass the Longjing shrimps in front of him to Ye Shengxiao, coughing slightly and speaking.

"This is what you like to eat on weekdays, eat more."

He said this dryly, and Xiao Li had already given up a lot of face. He thought that Ye Shengxiao would no longer be unresponsive, but who knew that after half a minute, Ye Shengxiao was still like that

With an indifferent expression, he neither looked at him nor responded to him, nor reached out to take the plate of Longjing shrimps.

With the servant standing by and his son watching helplessly, Xiao Li felt extremely embarrassed for a moment and placed the plate in his hand heavily on the table.

When Ye Shengxiao saw this, the corners of her mouth curved slightly.

"What? After slamming the door yesterday, do you want to slam the plate again today?"

Xiao Li was startled and felt angry at Ye Shengxiao's mocking tone.

He looked at Ye Shengxiao's indifferent profile and spoke coldly.

"I don't have a hobby of throwing things. It's just that some people are harsh on others, but they never take a serious look at themselves."

Although this statement did not explicitly refer to Ye Shengxiao, it was not much different.

The angrier Ye Shengxiao felt, the brighter the smile on her face.

"Look at yourself? Why don't I send this sentence back to Mr. Xiao? I don't know whether it's you or me who should look at yourself."

No one had ever dared to talk to him like this. Xiao Li's face became darker and his tone became colder.

"Ye Shengxiao, do you have to do this?"

The atmosphere at the dinner table became extremely dull for a moment. Yuanyuan blinked her big black and white eyes, looked at Xiao Li, and then looked at Ye Shengxiao.

"Mom, is dad going to quarrel with you again?"

Those sweet words instantly extinguished the fire in Xiao Li's heart.

He didn't want to quarrel with Ye Shengxiao anymore, and the purpose of everything he did today was to reconcile with her, but he didn't know why the two of them almost started to quarrel again.

He glanced at Ye Shengxiao with a serious look, and said to Yuanyuan in a warm voice: "Yuanyuan, daddy doesn't want to quarrel with mommy. Let's eat quickly. Come, daddy will serve you soup."

Because of Yuanyuan's reaction, Ye Shengxiao did not speak again, lowered her eyes, and suppressed the emotion in her eyes.

In the evening, Xiao Li was working in the study with a frown on his face, and Yuanyuan knocked on the door and walked in.

Xiao Li looked away from the computer, raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows.

"Why isn't Yuanyuan sleeping yet? It's not early."

Yuanyuan closed the study door, came to Xiao Li, blinked her big eyes, and gave him some advice.

"Dad, I have a good way to reconcile you and mom!"

Xiao Li was startled, and hugged his son on his lap, "How do you say reconciliation? There was nothing wrong in the first place."

Yuanyuan glanced at him and spoke speechlessly.

"Dad, please stop being so harsh. Mom doesn't want to talk to you today. I've seen it a long time ago!"

Xiao Li sighed deeply in his heart when he heard this.

Yes, now my son at home has begun to laugh at me.

The round little head tilted, and he took Xiao Li's arm and shook it.

"Dad, don't be discouraged. As long as you do what I say, I guarantee that mom will take care of you right away!"

After speaking, Yuanyuan patted her chest in a decent manner, "Really, Dad, I promise!"

Xiao Li was so cute with his son that he followed his interest and asked, "Okay, what do you think you can do? Dad will listen first."

Seeing this, Yuanyuan was satisfied and leaned close to Xiao Li's ear, and slowly uttered two words.

"Malingering!"

Xiao Li was very surprised when he heard this, "Pretending to be sick?"

Yuanyuan nodded heavily, "Yes, Dad, as long as you are sick, Mom will not care about a sick person!"

Xiao Li was very hesitant at first, "Yuanyuan, if you pretend to be sick, your mother will find out sooner or later."

"How could it be? Dad, you are pretending to be cool, and only you and I know about this matter. How could your mother find out? And if you don't pretend to be pitiful in front of your mother, you don't know when your mother will pay attention to you.

!”

The last sentence is really heartbreaking.

Xiao Li looked at his little breast dumplings and pondered for a while. His frown suddenly relaxed. At the same time, he felt a sense of clarity in front of his eyes.

"Yuanyuan, you are really a good son of your father. This is a great idea!"

Yuanyuan raised her brows proudly, "Of course dad."

Next, the father and son sat in the study room and made detailed plans for their next actions, preparing to put them into practice early tomorrow morning.

…

In the morning, after Ye Shengxiao woke up, she still ignored the man beside her. After changing her clothes in the bathroom, she went downstairs and prepared to make a childish breakfast for Yuanyuan.

Within a few minutes, Yuanyuan ran down the stairs on her short legs.

He was running and screaming in a fuss, his little face looking anxious.

"Mom! Mom! It's not good! Come and see dad!"

Ye Shengxiao was cracking eggs into the mold, but there was no big reaction on her face when she heard this.

"What can happen to your father if he is doing well, Yuanyuan, please don't yell so early in the morning."

Hearing this, Yuanyuan stepped forward and grabbed Ye Shengxiao's apron tightly, "Really! Mom, dad's condition looks very bad, he seems to be sick! Come on, come with me to have a look!"

Ye Shengxiao was dubious and followed Yuanyuan upstairs.

Pushing open the bedroom door, Xiao Li lay on the bed, covering most of his body and only revealing half of his face.

His eyes were half open and half closed, his face was an abnormal red color, as if he had a fever, and he looked extremely weak.

Ye Shengxiao was startled. After marrying into the Xiao family, she had never seen Xiao Li looking so weak.

I originally thought it was just Yuanyuan making a fuss, but I didn't expect that this man was really sick!

She quickly stepped forward and took out the thermometer.

"First check the temperature to see if you have a fever. You were fine yesterday. How could you suddenly become sick?"

Xiao Li's voice sounded weak, "Don't... worry, it's probably just a minor cold."

Ye Shengxiao took the thermometer in her hand and looked at it, but she still felt uneasy.

"Your body temperature is fine, but you look very weak. Stop talking now. I'll go find some medicine."

Seeing Xiao Li like this, Ye Shengxiao was embarrassed to blame him. Sometimes she helped him get medicine, and sometimes she helped him pour water. She was very considerate in both her actions and words.

Xiao Li looked at Ye Shengxiao's busy figure for him, and quietly blinked at the little breast dumpling beside the bed.

Yuanyuan responded to him, and quickly returned to her original expression before Ye Shengxiao came over, unable to see anything strange.
