Ye Hao nodded, not giving away much emotion in his gaze but she could vaguely make out his sorrow.
"My dad will be undergoing surgery the day after tomorrow. It is liver cancer." He emphasized the last two words and cast his eyes downward.
Although he had not lived together with his father since childhood, he was still a close relative. Both himself and his mother had been very saddened by the news
He Xiyan quickly bit on her lips and suddenly felt very bad for him.
"I'll go get you a cup of warm water." She rose to her feet and knew that she should not probe further. The news had impacted him greatly.
As she turned to leave, Ye Hao grabbed her hand.
"Oh, He Xiyan, I engaged a maid on your behalf. She will start the day after tomorrow."
He Xiyan was stunned and turned to look at him in surprise.
"I will be able to look after my child alone." She said softly but his grip on her hand only grew tighter.
