Billionaire's Runaway Wife Came Back With Babies

Chapter 8: Chapter 8: Save Miss Ye First



The moment the voice ceased, the door to the master bedroom opened, and Ye Ranran walked out. She was dressed in a white off-the-shoulder sleep gown, with wet hair draping over her shoulders, her apricot eyes misty, soft, and soul-captivating.

She stood on the second floor, and when her gaze fell on Xiao Sichen, there was a second of stunned pause before she covered her head, "Sorry... wait for me for a moment!"

Then there was a loud slam, and the white door closed as Ye Ranran ducked back into the room.

Xiao Sichen watched her actions, and the corners of his eyebrows imperceptibly lifted in amusement, a hint of tenderness flashing in his deep eyes.

"Mr. Xiao?" Ye Xingyu, holding a plate of fruit with cheeks subtly flushed from shyness, looked quite adorable.

Xiao Sichen came back to his senses and took the fruit plate from the little one, "Thank you."

The two words made Ye Xingyu's face turn even redder, and he pursed his lips, "You're, you're welcome."

After saying this, he clattered off toward Ye Xingtong, standing behind him like a little kitten.

Ye Xingtong held his hand, expressionless but with a gentle look in his eyes.

"My little brother likes you," said Ye Xingchen to Xiao Sichen, not hiding anything.

Though their youngest brother was introverted, he wouldn't easily take to someone. Those he took to usually ended up befriending them.

"It's an honor," Xiao Sichen said, glancing at Ye Xingyu.

The little guy blushed even more.

The other four siblings each wore different expressions, but all understood that Ye Xingyu really liked Xiao Sichen very much.

"Ahem... Mr. Xiao, what brings you to my house?" This time, Ye Ranran changed into an athletic suit in cherry blossom pink that made her look even younger.

Xiao Sichen looked at her, his deep eyes calm like a still well, "Yaoyao is sick and needs your help."

"What?" Upon hearing this, Ye Ranran immediately became anxious and strode briskly down, asking eagerly, "What's wrong with her? Is it serious?"

"It's asthma, and she's refusing to take her medication. We need Miss Ye's help," Xiao Sichen said with a look of frustration, as if he had been troubled by this for a long time.

Given the situation, Ye Ranran wouldn't refuse, "What do I need to do?"

Xiao Sichen looked out the window, his gaze intense, "Could Miss Ye accompany me to the hospital?"

After hearing Xiao Sichen's request, Ye Ranran went to grab her bag and phone, "Let's go, I'll go now."

Xiao Sichen's expression relaxed slightly, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, I'm quite fond of that child too," Ye Ranran said, looking at her eldest son and ruffling his little head, "Before I return, don't go outside and don't open the door for strangers, understand?"

"I understand!" Ye Xingchen nodded.

After Ye Ranran and Xiao Sichen left, Ye Xinglan resumed his cunning demeanor, holding Ye Xingyu's face, and smiled, "Do you really like him?"

"Mhm, he's just like the dad I imagined," Ye Xingyu answered, looking also at Ye Xingtong, "He resembles the second brother."

"He really does," Ye Xinglan nodded, evidently holding a bit of affection for Xiao Sichen himself.

"Big brother, investigation," Ye Xingtong spoke succinctly, but everyone understood what he meant.

They all wanted such a man to be their father.

Xiao Sichen was driving the car, but behind his vehicle trailed five bodyguard cars. Ye Ranran, having interviewed various elites abroad, was no longer surprised by this.

As the car started, neon lights from the roadside filtered through repeatedly, casting an unusual splendor on Xiao Sichen's stony face.

Ye Ranran couldn't help but stare a bit too long.

Out of the corner of his eye, Xiao Sichen caught her look, softened the harsh killing aura a bit, and spoke gravely, "Xiao Jinyao has been withdrawn since childhood, finding it hard to interact with outsiders. Miss Ye is the only one she trusts."

Ye Ranran furrowed her brows. She had thought the little girl was non-verbal, but it turned out she simply chose not to speak due to her autism.

Children with autism are even more heart-wrenching.

"I hope Miss Ye can counsel her, and make it clear that you are not her mother," Xiao Sichen said.

Ye Ranran nodded, "Of course, I'll make sure to explain clearly. But may I ask, where is the child's mother now? Having her biological mother around at this age would be better."

"The child's mother..." Xiao Sichen looked straight ahead, paused for a moment, and said openly, "is currently undergoing a paternity test."

Since he did not wish to discuss further, Ye Ranran naturally did not ask.

The top-tier elites always had secrets unknown to outsiders, ones she should not probe into.

Suddenly silence fell in the car, making the atmosphere slightly awkward.

Ye Ranran glanced at Xiao Sichen. Information about him flickered through her mind like a movie, causing a reverence for this man to rise spontaneously.

She was lost in thought when the car suddenly swerved around a corner, and then it felt as if a huge force had slammed into them.

In a mere instant, the front of the car was smashed to one side, and smoke billowed from the front.

The bodyguard vehicles following them immediately stopped. As the group of bodyguards rushed forward and opened the door, they saw Ye Ranran and Xiao Sichen tightly embracing each other...

Everything had happened too fast, and Ye Ranran hadn't anticipated any of this until she found herself lying in the man's sturdy embrace, with warning noises in her ears, slowly regaining her senses.

At this point, the interior of the car was in utter disarray, and airbags had deployed.

Xiao Sichen held her, his face cold as frost, his gaze initially unfocused before finally settling on Ye Ranran's face, unblinkingly.

Ye Ranran slowly exhaled, quickly asking, "Mr. Xiao, are you alright?"

She had genuinely been startled when the car was hit.

Xiao Sichen stared at her delicate little face, and as if recalling something, he urgently held her hand.

On her pale wrist, there was a clearly visible wound, from which blood slowly seeped.

His eyes darkened immediately.

"Save Miss Ye first!" Xiao Sichen's voice grew somewhat hoarse. Without waiting for the bodyguards to react, he had already carried Ye Ranran out of the car.

When the accident happened, she had used her body to protect him.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been her wrist that was injured—it would have been his heart.
