Chapter 271: Chapter 271: Stripping off Clothes Chapter 271: Chapter 271: Stripping off Clothes Tang Yu had been in the hospital for almost a week now.

When she was alone, she would play with her cellphone, watch TV, scroll through videos, or read the news.

Her head had stopped aching a long time ago.

Her shoulder was also healed.

She didn’t know when she would be discharged.

It seemed that her discharge from the hospital was determined by Ye Sihan. If Ye Sihan said she could be discharged, then she could leave.

Tang Yu leaned against the pillow, feeling depressed. It had been another week since she had seen the children.

Even when she was sick, Ye Sihan wouldn’t let her see the children. He was so heartless…

A knock on the door sounded, and the doctor came in. “How are you feeling? Any discomfort?”

“I’m fine, there’s really no need to stay in the hospital. I can take those medicines at home.” Tang Yu said.

“Okay, then you can be discharged this morning! You don’t need to worry about the discharge procedures. These are the medicines you need to take back home. I’ll explain how to take each one.” The doctor took out the medicines from the bag one by one and told her how to take them.

No sooner had the doctor left than Tang Yu got up from the bed with delight.

She began to pack up her things.

Actually, there wasn’t much, just her change of clothes and toiletries.

After getting everything in order, she went to the restroom to change clothes.

She took off the pajamas she was wearing, leaving just her underwear.

Just as she was about to grab the clothes from the bag, the restroom door unexpectedly flung open, startling Tang Yu into covering her chest with the clothes—

“Ah!”

Ye Sihan looked at her impassively, his gaze traveling downward, landing on her pale, slender legs.

The triangle briefs framed her perky rear end, the contours well-defined.

“I’m changing clothes!” Tang Yu said uncomfortably and stepped forward to pull the door shut with a bang.

Did this man understand what privacy meant?

So brazen!

Let’s not forget, she wasn’t his woman in bed at the moment!

The only connection between them now was the children!

After changing clothes, Tang Yu came out of the restroom and put her pajamas in her bag.

“I’m going to be discharged.” Tang Yu said.

No reply came from the person behind her, but her cellphone in the bag started ringing.

She took out the phone and glanced at the incoming call.

During her moment of hesitation, she could feel the oppressive atmosphere in the ward. It was very tangible.

She answered, “Hello?”

“Are you busy?” Ye Yuli asked.

“I’m on set.”

“Is it all right?”

“Yeah, quite good.” Tang Yu gave a perfunctory response.

“If I don’t call you, you don’t think to contact me.” Ye Yuli sounded somewhat reproachful.

Even though Tang Yu felt that contacting any man shouldn’t concern Ye Sihan, there was still a certain dread inside her.

“I’ll get in touch with you later. That’s it.” Tang Yu hung up the phone and tossed it back into her bag.

The next second, her wrist was gripped tightly and pressed against the wall—

“Ah!” Tang Yu exclaimed in shock at the man advancing on her, “What… what are you doing?”

“Lying is second nature to you.” Ye Sihan’s tone was dark and menacing.

“It wasn’t to you, what’s your grievance?” Tang Yu retorted.

Ye Sihan stared at her without moving, his cold eyes abyssal, dangerously so.

Yes, what was his grievance? It was only that he had heard Ye Yuli’s voice on the other end of the line.

The irritation within him was an emotion he was loath to reveal.

“Want to see the kids?”

Tang Yu was taken aback, “I… Can I?”

“Strip naked and beg me to take you.” Ye Sihan coerced her. “What, you don’t want to?”

Tang Yu looked at the nearby sickbed and bit her lip, as if struggling in a swamp.

The more she struggled, the more despair took over, until she gave up struggling.

She raised her hands, and under Ye Sihan’s gaze, began to unfasten the buttons of her newly donned clothes.

“For the kids, I’m willing to sleep with anyone, not just with you.” The moment she finished speaking, her face was abruptly seized, “Ugh!”

“Say that again!” Ye Sihan’s hand on her face tightened fiercely, his expression ferocious.

Tang Yu winced in pain, her eyes tearful as she met his brutal dark gaze and spoke with difficulty, “I… I agreed, didn’t I? Isn’t that enough?”

Ye Sihan’s eyes were horribly intense, as if he could tear her apart at any moment.

She had to be quiet!

But tears suddenly fell on his fingers, making his hand involuntarily tremble and relax its grip instinctively.

Tang Yu continued with the buttons, crying as she did so.

Ye Sihan’s irritation had reached a limit. He let go of her face, “Don’t do it halfway and get a concussion again, ruining my mood!”

After speaking, he turned and left the ward.

Tang Yu raised her tearful eyes to the closing door of the ward, tears rolling down.

She bowed her head and silently fastened the buttons.

Picked up her bag and left.

When reaching the hospital entrance, she paused.

The black Rolls-Royce was stopped on the road she was passing. Was this to have her get in the car?

Just as she thought that, the car door slowly opened.

The man sitting on the black leather seat had a presence so profound, it radiated a strong sense of oppression.

Tang Yu didn’t want to get in the car, and turned to walk away.

But after just a few steps, her wrist was caught, someone dragged her toward the car—

“Ah! Ye Sihan, let go of me! Let go! I don’t want to sit in your…” Before Tang Yu could finish, she was thrown into the car and sank into the seat.

The car door closed, and the vehicle left the hospital.

Seeing that there was no chance of getting out of the car, Tang Yu stopped struggling and sulkily pressed herself against the car door.

All the way, Ye Sihan didn’t speak.

The carriage was silent but extremely oppressive.

Upon arriving at the residential compound, Tang Yu got out of the car without looking back as the door opened.

The car had not left, and Ye Sihan sat motionless in the back seat, his cold eyes fixed on Tang Yu’s retreating figure.

She always showed him disdain, truly fearless.

Yet, aside from the children, he had no way to deal with her.

This feeling of losing control was indeed irritating!

In the days following her return to the rental, aside from buying groceries nearby, Tang Yu had not gone out.

She had called the production crew, but it was as if the entire media company had vanished.

Offending Ye Sihan was akin to provoking the Devil, and the consequences were miserable.

When Ye Sihan was in the hospital, he had said he’d arrange something with Caged Studio for her, but how could Tang Yu possibly agree?

She’d rather work as a waitress serving dishes.

When at home with nothing to do, Tang Yu would call around to find resources for herself.

But no one was willing to give her an opportunity.

Although her previous drama had gained some popularity, there were far too many actors in the entertainment industry, many of them attractive, all clamoring for even minor roles.

If a star fades from the spotlight for a while, they are quickly forgotten.

Tang Yu was one of those forgotten.

Just as she was thinking this, her cell phone rang.

It was an unfamiliar number.

Who could it be? Tang Yu answered, “Hello, who is this?”

“Is this Tang Yu?”

“It is.”

“I have a role in a drama, and I’m wondering if you’d be interested. It’s a modern city-themed drama— the female lead. If you’re interested, come for an audition next Monday morning, the day after tomorrow.”

Tang Yu hadn’t expected an opportunity to come so quickly!

And it was for the female lead?

Immediately, she replied, “I’m available, I’ll definitely be there. May I ask, how did you get my contact information?”

“I’ve seen your previous palace drama and really liked your image, so I asked Director Chun Ri for your contact information.”

“Okay, thank you!”

After ending the call, Tang Yu felt relieved.

She could act again!

But she hadn’t expected that they got her contact through Director Chun Ri. Does that make it related to Ye Sihan?

Probably not.

In the evening, after her bath, Tang Yu held her phone, viewing the various videos and photos she had taken of the quadruplets.

If only she could see the quadruplets anytime she wished…

Ye Sihan, for the sake of the love I have for you, can’t you be a bit more merciful?

I won’t have any other requests…

Suddenly, she heard a knock at the door.

Confused, Tang Yu got up and opened the door, her stunned face immediately overwhelmed with joy—

“Mommy!”

“Mommy!”

“Mommy!”

“Mommy!”

The four little ones excitedly jumped onto mommy!

“Babies, how did you come here?” Tang Yu could hardly believe her eyes—had they sneaked out again? “Mommy said not to run out on your own, it’s dangerous!”

“Nope!”

“We came by car!”

“Daddy told us to!”

“Hmm!”

Tang Yu was in a daze; yes, it was almost seven o’clock, they couldn’t possibly have run from school like last time.

But did Ye Sihan know? Did he send a driver? Why?

And she noticed, the four little ones had even bathed.

While getting clothes for them to change into pajamas, Tang Yu thought about Ye Sihan.

Did this mean she could see the children in the future, or was this just a one-time opportunity?

Regardless, at this moment, she felt really happy.

Once the quadruplets changed, she excitedly pounced on them—

“Ow-woo!”

“Ah!” The soft and adorable little fellas giggled, trying to escape from underneath mommy.

Tang Yu caught one by the little leg and bit into the chubby flesh.

“Ah mommy, not fair!”

“Mmm mmm!”

Junjun, the little smart one, wriggled out and immediately climbed onto mommy’s back, “Can’t catch me!”

Tang Yu played with the four children until she was nearly exhausted, lying in bed gasping for air.

The little ones pounced again—

“Haha! Mommy can’t take it anymore…”

“Mommy, are you full yet?” Zhengzheng asked.

“Full, full!” Tang Yu played the part of Big Gray Wolf, relentlessly nibbling on their soft flesh.

The sight of the little bunnies scampering around was too cute.

But her energy was no match for the children, and she quickly admitted defeat.

“Little bunnies beat the Big Gray Wolf~” The quadruplets completely overwhelmed mommy.

“Hahaha!”

The night was tranquil, moonlight spilled through the window.

On the bed in the room lay one adult and four small bodies, with the quadruplets sprawled around mommy, fast asleep.

At that moment, a silent shadow entered the room and stood by the bedside, casting a presence over the entire bed.

In her sleep, Tang Yu seemed to sense danger and instinctively turned over, embracing the closest one, Xibao, before settling down again.
