Chapter 238 House Arrest
Chapter 238 House Arrest
I can't say for sure whether it's just because of my illness or something else.
When I woke up the next day, I was surprised to find myself back at the villa.
Seeing that I was awake, Song Yafei explained, "You slept too soundly last night and I couldn't wake you up, so I had to have someone carry you back."
Whether she was sleeping too soundly or using other methods, she knew the answer in her heart.
I didn't want to argue with her about these pointless things, so I just threw back the covers, got up, and prepared to leave.
When I got to the door, I was stopped by two security guards.
I turned around and questioned Song Yafei, "What do you mean by this?"
Song Yafei came forward to help me up, but I refused.
She spoke to me in a soft, gentle voice, a rare sight indeed.
"If you don't want me to touch you, then I won't move. Be careful not to reopen the wound."
I didn't want to talk to her about these things, I just emphasized, "Let me leave!"
"no!"
Without even thinking, Song Yafei refused, "Your health is so serious, you need someone to take care of you. Stay here and let me take care of you, okay?"
I snorted coldly, "President Song seems to really enjoy taking care of people. He took care of Yu Chengliang, who had cancer, before, and now he's taking care of me, who has a terminal illness."
"What's their intention this time?"
Song Yafei just stared at me, her eyes filled with such complex emotions that I couldn't understand them, nor did I want to.
Right now, all I want to do is leave.
However, from that day on, I was placed under house arrest by Song Yafei.
I can move around inside the villa, but I can't leave it.
The new house I once decorated with great joy has now become a prison that confines me.
Just a couple of days ago, I even confronted Song Yafei about this and refused to cooperate.
He ignored the food and nourishing soup she brought him.
Song Yafei was very anxious and annoyed.
But in front of me, they could only plead and dared not lash out.
I didn't want to talk to her, ignored her temper, and hardly ever spoke a word to her.
This infuriated her, and she tried every possible way to get me to speak up.
I would chat with Aunt Lin and occasionally respond to Assistant Luo's greetings, but I chose to ignore Song Yafei.
I hoped to make her understand my determination to leave.
I even called the police when I got my phone back the next day at noon.
But not a single police officer showed up.
It turns out that after receiving the emergency call, their first action was to call Song Yafei to confirm the situation.
After receiving Song Yafei's reply, they didn't even bother to come and take a look.
This completely dispelled my idea of leaving with the help of external forces.
However, I also used this opportunity to let Song Yafei know how eager I was to leave.
By the third day, I started feeling unwell and realized that this method was not advisable.
Because I still have many things to do, and the matter of the headmistress's mother has not yet been resolved.
I must take good care of my health.
So on the morning of the third day, when Aunt Lin and Song Yafei brought out breakfast, I didn't refuse, but sat down at the table and ate it in small bites.
Aunt Lin was very happy. "Sir, you've finally come to your senses. No matter what you can't get over, you can't hurt your own body."
Even Song Yafei finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that I liked matsutake chicken soup, they served me another bowl.
"Thank you, but I can't eat that much."
When I was discharged from the hospital, the doctor specifically instructed me to eat only small amounts and to take it slowly.
Fortunately, Song Yafei wasn't upset by my rejection, after all, this was the first thing I'd said to her in the past few days.
His face beamed with undisguised joy.
"It's okay, Aunt Lin can make it for you again when your appetite improves."
I glanced at her but didn't reply.
Because I know it's impossible, because I can't possibly stay.
I even asked her for my phone back; it was the security guard who took it from me after I called the police.
"Give me back my phone, it's too boring staying in the villa!"
Song Yafei didn't move, she just looked at me, as if trying to see what I wanted to do from my eyes.
It was as if they guessed what I wanted to do, but I just couldn't refuse.
I pretended to be nonchalant and said in a calm tone, "Even the police (110) are giving you face, what else do you have to worry about?"
“I’m very worried because I can’t get in touch with Lin Qiuran and the others, and I don’t want him to worry.”
Even if she gave me the phone, it wouldn't affect her in any way, since she wields immense power and can easily control many things.
Song Yafei took her phone out of the drawer next to the bed and spoke to me calmly.
"Your phone has always been with you. I never intended to prevent you from contacting the outside world; I was just afraid of delaying your recovery."
It was quite a surprise; I didn't expect my phone to be right next to me.
Did I wrong her?
After dinner, I soon received a call from Lin Qiuran.
Lin Qiuran sounded very anxious on the phone, as if she had been looking for me for a long time.
I didn't receive any calls or video calls from Lin Qiuran before because Song Yafei turned off my internet.
Lin Qiuran inquired about my condition.
I only told him that I had returned to the villa, and didn't say anything else.
Because there were people guarding outside, and Song Yafei was right beside her, it wasn't convenient to say anything.
However, at that time I was unaware that Lin Qiuran and Hu Mei had found the villa because of my sudden disappearance.
They approached Song Yafei, but they couldn't persuade her to change her mind.
Moreover, later, in order to get Song Yafei to let me go, she did many things that we never even imagined.
In the following days, my life returned to normal, and my relationship with Song Yafei continued uneventfully without any arguments.
Most of the time, I ignore her, and because I'm injured, she won't argue with me anymore.
I did nothing; I lay low, waiting for an opportunity to escape.
About a week later, Mrs. Song came to the door, dissatisfied with Song Yafei's recent outrageous behavior.
During this time, Song Yafei stayed at the villa most of the time to take care of me, and personally did things that she wouldn't normally do.
I personally cooked soup and other dishes, as well as some desserts.
These are things she would never have done before.
As a result, she neglected her work at the group, which would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the group's board of directors.
And so, Madam Song was pushed out by these people to take the fall.
When Mrs. Song arrived, Song Yafei was in the kitchen. I happened to be coming downstairs and saw Mrs. Song standing there without moving.
Because I don't want to get into this trouble.
From this vantage point, you can see right into the kitchen, where Song Yafei is wearing an apron and holding celery.
Hearing the noise, he probably thought it was me and turned around with a smile, but he didn't expect to see Madam Song standing behind him. His face immediately turned cold.
Madam Song's face darkened, and she looked furious at her son's lack of ambition; she was almost driven mad with anger.
They even made sarcastic remarks, saying, "The president of the prestigious Song Corporation is giving up his job to become a housewife?"
