Chapter 929 He's gone mad, what's wrong with this man?
Ye Haitao picked up his phone and browsed. Whether it was webpage A, webpage B, forum A, or forum B, almost every platform's front page headlines were about him and Xiao Ran.
"Dad, I'm sorry, I had no choice but to do it!"
Only in this way can I conceal my physical problems and prevent others from discovering them.
After all, only someone like Miss Xiao can provide the best cover.
Only a woman of her status, talent, and pride would keep my secret so tightly for the sake of her own pride!
"Of course, only by stabilizing Xiao Ran first can I slowly find out who is secretly targeting me."
Perhaps only by finding that person can I take revenge and find a way to cure my body!
"Dad, I'm so sorry. I know everything you've done is for my own good, but this time I have no choice but to do it!"
Looking at the frenzied online opinion, Ye Haitao sneered inwardly, while at the same time feeling an indescribable sense of guilt and self-reproach towards Ye Boxiong.
He knew that Ye Boxiong would be furious upon seeing this, and might even lose his composure in anger.
Having experienced setbacks, Ye Haitao is now more calm and clear-headed. He understands that the only person in this world who truly cares about him and is genuinely good to him is his elderly father.
After the initial joy, worry quickly crept into my mind.
He immediately called Ye Haixia to find out about the situation at home.
After all, Ye Boxiong had suffered a stroke before, and stroke patients are most afraid of recurrence, as each one is more serious than the last.
The call was quickly answered, and Ye Haixia's boisterous voice immediately came through: "Brother! You finally called! Has Sister Xiao Ran been won over by you? Are you two lying in bed embracing right now?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Haitao's face instantly darkened.
Xiao Ran was indeed in bed, and he did long to be with him, but he simply couldn't do it right now.
Shut your mouth! Stop thinking about these filthy things!
Tell me quickly, does my family know about Xiao Ran and me?
Ye Haitao scolded.
He was becoming increasingly annoyed with his unruly younger sister.
"It's not just your family that knows! Now the whole world knows! Everyone knows that you and Sister Xiao Ran went on a date together, and even went to your villa!"
Brother, you're not going to tell me I'll be able to hold my nephew next year, are you?
Ye Haixia continued to shout exaggeratedly.
"Keep your voice down! I'm asking you something serious. Does Dad know about this? How is he doing?"
Ye Haitao was most concerned about Ye Boxiong.
"Don't even mention it, brother! I don't know what got into Dad, but as soon as he found out about you and Sister Xiao Ran, he flew into a rage and almost fainted. His mouth even bled!"
Ye Haixia said with dissatisfaction.
"You're saying Dad collapsed from anger? And his mouth is bleeding?"
These words made Ye Haitao's heart tighten; he was truly afraid that Ye Boxiong would suffer another stroke.
"Yes! Dad got really angry and even argued with Mom. He was so angry that he felt dizzy and lightheaded. The doctor came over and told him to rest and not to get angry anymore!"
I really don't understand what Dad is thinking. Xiao Ran is such a good person, and he's always interfering. Even I can't stand it anymore!
"Enough! Shut up! That's Dad!"
Ye Haitao rebuked him sternly.
In his eyes, Xiao Ran was no longer the Xiao Ran she once was; she was scheming and had impure motives.
He now feels nothing but disgust towards Xiao Ran.
After hanging up Ye Haixia's call, Ye Haitao paced back and forth in the room.
He could guess that Xiao Ran was still waiting for him in the guest room, and if he didn't go over, Xiao Ran would definitely become suspicious.
But if he goes there, given Xiao Ran's personality, he will soon discover his health problems.
Now, I must find an excuse to leave!
He paced back and forth in the room, a cigarette between his fingers, and checked the time. Almost two hours had passed since he entered the villa.
"It's about time. If I take Xiao Ran away now, no one should laugh at me for being useless, right?"
He could imagine that the area around the villa was teeming with reporters and paparazzi, all eager to capture images of them and generate buzz online.
But he couldn't lose face. Everyone would assume that their date at the villa was going to involve some intimacy, and if it was too short, people would just laugh at him.
But it can't go on for too long; if I keep ignoring Xiao Ran, she'll become suspicious.
Ye Haitao kept checking his watch. Twenty minutes later, he estimated that Xiao Ran should have finished showering and was lying in bed. It had been exactly two and a half hours since they entered the villa.
"That's about enough, we can go now."
He went straight to the guest room and knocked on the door.
"This man has finally arrived!"
Xiao Ran had already heard the footsteps. He cursed inwardly, but said lazily, "Darling, the door isn't locked, come in."
Ye Haitao's heart skipped a beat when he heard the voice, but he quickly calmed down.
He was stunned for a moment when he opened the door and saw the scene on the bed. He then said hastily, "Honey, something happened at home. I have to go back right away. Let's leave it at that for today."
Xiao Ran was filled with anger, but she had been hoping he would come in. She never expected that Ye Haitao would come to tell her to leave.
"Has something happened to your family?"
Xiao Ran was stunned.
"Yes, something urgent has come up, I have to go back right away."
"What's wrong? Is it something important or trivial? Do you want me to come with you?"
"No need, it's just a small matter."
"A small matter? Honey, you don't look well, it can't be a small matter! Don't lie to me, has something serious happened at home?"
"Really not!"
Ye Haitao shook his head again. He just wanted to separate from Xiao Ran as soon as possible to avoid being exposed.
"I don't believe it! Darling, I know your personality. You want to be with me all the time. If you suddenly want to leave, something serious must have happened at home."
Tell me quickly, what happened? Do you want me to come back with you?
Xiao Ran pursued relentlessly.
"Actually, Dad suddenly felt unwell."
Ye Haitao had no choice but to tell the truth.
"Uncle Ye isn't feeling well? What's wrong with him? We need to go back and check on him as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately jumped out of bed and started getting dressed, urging him on impatiently.
But in her heart, she sneered. That old bastard Ye Boxiong must have seen the news online and, unable to contact Ye Haitao, had a fit of rage!
Since he's gotten sick from anger, I should go see him and see how serious his illness is. I should also show off in front of him, and hopefully, I can make this old man die of anger!
If Ye Boxiong were to die of anger or become a vegetable, no one would be able to stop her and Ye Haitao. After marrying into the Ye family, she would be able to take control of the entire Ye family as soon as possible.
Ye Boxiong, the sooner you die, the better!
"Huh? You want to come back with me?"
Ye Haitao was completely taken aback by Xiao Ran's words and his mouth dropped open in surprise.
The person his father least wants to see right now is Xiao Ran!
"What do you mean 'ah'? That's your father, and also my future father-in-law. We're family!"
He wasn't feeling well, so of course I had to go and see him; it's something a junior should do!
Stop talking nonsense and get ready, we're going back to your house now!
Xiao Ran urged.
Since she had already gone all out and let the internet hype confirm her relationship with Ye Haitao, she might as well go all the way and go straight to Ye's house after the date to definitively establish their relationship.
"This, okay."
Although Ye Haitao was worried, he still nodded.
He now wants to finalize his marriage with Xiao Ran as soon as possible, using it as a cover.
So the two hurriedly left the villa.
As soon as they stepped out of the house, figures appeared one after another in the vicinity of the residential area, all holding up their equipment and taking pictures.
