Staying Home

Ye Zhao was the first to break the silence. He quickly glanced at his father and asked his Second Brother. "Why… did you suddenly resign?"

Ye Hui's eyes flickered as he said hesitantly, "Dad, I don't like the front line… I still want to go to the laboratory."

Ye Chong nodded. "Sit and eat first."

Le Bao looked at this and then looked at that. She didn't understand what was going on between the father and son. The inexplicably heavy atmosphere lasted until the end of dinner.

As soon as the two of them got up and left the dining table, they walked upstairs at the same time.

Ye Wei also followed.

From the looks of it, the three of them had something to talk about. The only one who was alone was standing beside her.

Le Bao was curious about what Ye Hui had said just now. He was already an adult man with the ability to make his own decisions. Could it be that he still had to consider his parents' opinions when it came to choosing a job?

She pretended not to know anything and wanted to follow him up the stairs, but before she could take two steps, someone grabbed her by the neck.

"Le Bao can't go up." Ye Zhao pulled her back. "Dad and Brother are going to talk business. We can play games downstairs."

Le Bao frowned and thought for a moment. "They won't fight, right?"

Ye Zhao laughed and said, "What are you thinking about? Of course, they won't fight. They just went to talk about some things and came back down."

Sure enough, more than half an hour later, the father and son came downstairs as if nothing had happened.

In the living room, Le Bao was holding a game console and competing with Ye Zhao. When he heard the sound of people coming down the stairs, he was distracted for a moment and was actually beaten to the ground by the small figure controlled by Le Bao.

"F*ck! How embarrassing!" Ye Zhao subconsciously cursed. When he reacted, he quickly covered his mouth. At the same time, the three people beside him shot daggers at him.

Le Bao threw away her game console and rolled around on the ground laughing. "Idiot! Big Brother is stupid!"

"Little brat!" She was still enjoying herself when she was suddenly lifted up and faced Ye Chong in the face, "I won't allow you to learn such nonsense from your brother! Don't let me hear you again."

Le Bao hurriedly raised her hand to cover her mouth. "Le Bao didn't scold anyone."

"I'm going out for a while." Ye Chong threw her to Ye Hui.

Everyone said goodbye to him in unison. After they left, Ye Hui carried her to the sofa and sat down. He leaned against the sofa and played with her little hand lazily. He looked at the screen and asked, "What game is Le Bao playing?"

"The matchmaking contest," Ye Zhao replied and impatiently came over with the game handle. "Second Brother, how did you talk to Dad? Did Dad agree to let you resign from the hospital and go to the laboratory?"

Ye Wei sat on the armrest of the sofa with his arms crossed and said disapprovingly, "When has Dad ever interfered with our choices?"

"Then what did you guys talk about upstairs?"

Le Bao obediently nestled in Ye Hui's arms and quietly pricked up her ears to listen attentively.

"Why are you asking so many questions?" Ye Hui picked up a magazine and rolled it up. He knocked on Ye Zhao's head. "Come and fight with your brother. Let's see how your noob skills will be defeated by Le Bao."

"Hey, hey, hey! Please, I was distracted just now, okay? If it wasn't for the fact that I was worried about you guys, would I have been beaten up by this three-year-old kid?"

Le Bao was instantly unhappy. "Little Big Brother, how can you fight like this? You said that I'm a little kid after losing to me!"

Ye Wei was amused. He rolled up his sleeves and sat down on the ground. He picked up the game controller and said to Ye Hui, "It's been a long time since I've played this game. Let's play with childhood memories."

"Good!"

After tonight, Le Bao realized that Ye Hui seemed to have moved back home.

It seemed that he had successfully negotiated with their father. She secretly wondered why Ye Hui suddenly changed. She remembered that in the original description of the book, Ye Hui's character was a medical genius with outstanding medical skills.

If he was no longer in the hospital, would he still be able to be a doctor? If he went to the laboratory, wouldn't he be a scientist?

Was it because of her arrival that changed the direction of the characters in the story?

With a belly full of doubts, Le Bao finally couldn't help but ask on the third day, "Second Brother, why don't you go back to work at the hospital?"

Ye Hui was reading a book. "Because Second Brother resigned from the hospital and no longer works there."

Le Bao crawled to his side and tilted his head, asking, "Why? Is it because of those aunties who scolded you that day?"

He closed the book and smiled. "It has nothing to do with those people. I just thought it through and made these decisions."

Le Bao made an 'oh' sound, her face pensive.

"What are you thinking about?" Ye Hui pinched her cheek. "Brother will go out to do something later. You're alone at home today."

"Yes, yes!" Le Bao nodded vigorously.

It was another busy day for the whole family. It was almost lunchtime, and only she and Nanny Liang were at the huge dining table.

Ever since the hospital, after the medical report on her malnutrition came out, Nanny Liang insisted on feeding her as long as there were no adults in the Ye family.

She was afraid that she would cut corners and not eat properly. Although the nutritious meal she made for her was complete, the taste was not the sour and sweet taste that she liked.

It was not that the chef could not cook it, but Ye Chong had somehow instructed the chef to give her a light diet with less oil and salt, so that it would be slower than a child's growth and development.

Le Bao was getting tired of eating different kinds of food for a few days. She insisted on it many times before she refused Nanny Liang's feeding. It was almost lunchtime again, and she looked at the kitchen with eager eyes.

There was no fried chicken leg, sweet and sour fish, or mapo tofu that she had been longing for.

Le Bao sighed. She wanted to have a good discussion with her father.

Just as she was thinking, a large hand landed on her head and gently rubbed it. "Little friend Ye Lebao."

Le Bao looked up and said, "Hello, Uncle Xia!"

"Why are you sitting there alone in a daze?" Xia Shang asked.

"I'm thinking about something. Uncle, why are you here?" she asked.

Xia Shang waved the things in his hand. "I'm here to get some information and prepare to send it to your father."

"Uncle Xia, can I go to the company with you?" Le Bao stood up from the ground.

Xia Shang hesitated for a moment. "Today, the President is quite busy."

"Just call him and ask him! Uncle call him, and Bao Bao will talk to him!"

Ye Chong, who was busy in the office, had just rested when his phone vibrated.

"Hey, what's wrong?"

"Daddy!" A soft child's voice came from the receiver. Ye Chong leaned back and smiled, "Why are you calling me with your Uncle Xia's phone?"

"Daddy, did you have lunch?" Le Bao asked eagerly.

"I haven't eaten yet. Is Le Bao bringing me food?" Ye Chong teased.

He had only asked casually, but he did not expect Le Bao to reply so straightforwardly. "Okay!"

Ye Chong hung up the phone happily. He was stunned for a moment, wondering if the girl was telling the truth.

On the other side, Le Bao had already run to the kitchen and told Nanny Liang loudly, "Nanny Liang! Hurry up and pack up Bao Bao's lunch. I want to go to the company to eat with Daddy!"
