Chapter 38: A punishment

Ye Sichen said simply, “a babysitter for Wuyou and Nianci.”

Ye Ranni stared at Xia Nuan, which made her feel uncomfortable. After Xia Nuan greeted Ms. Ranni, she was ready to leave.

“Wait a moment!” Ye Ranni blocked her way.

Xia Nuan stopped.

Ye Sichen was somewhat displeased.

“Chen, is she the babysitter that mom always wanted you to dismiss? Why haven’t you done it?” Ye Ranni raised her voice and asked Ye Sichen.

Ye Sichen seemed more serious than before, “It’s none of your business. Xia Nuan, go upstairs and take care of the babies.”

Following his orders, Xia Nuan walked over to Ye Ranni.

When she went upstairs, she heard that Ye Ranni asked Ye Sichen in the living room like a ton of bricks, “Wasn’t she going to marry a gardener who worked here? Why did you transfer that gardener to Modu City? To separate them? Chen, don’t tell me you have a crush on a babysitter!”

Xia Nuan stopped and stayed put once again.

Did the gardener she mentioned refer to Ming Sen?

It was Ye Sichen who transferred him to Modu City…

Xia Nuan was utterly confused. It could tell from Ye Ranni’s words that Ms. Ranni misunderstood the relationship between Ye Sichen and Xia Nuan.

She went upstairs to the bedroom uneasily. Seeing Wuyou and Nianci were sleeping tight, she could not help but sit there in low spirits.

“How’s the auction? Did you sell out the clothes?” Ye Sichen asked.

It seemed that he had sent his sister away.

Xia Nuan recalled her thoughts. Then she nodded, “Yes, the auction is very successful and I have already mailed the donation money to them.”

Ye Sichen was very concerned about the sick and the disabled, “Is it enough? Tell me if it is not enough.”

“Yeah, sir, it’s enough. Thank you.”

Xia Nuan raised the money in the name of donation, but she used the five million yuan to pay the debt for her sister Xia Yan. Xia Nuan felt guilty for her cheating. Looking at his earnest eyes, she felt despicable about herself.

She decided to pay off his money when she got money, including all the debt she owed him.

“It doesn’t matter. You’re doing me a favor to help them.” Ye Sichen poured her a glass of juice.

“I will go to Modu City to participate in an anniversary show the day after tomorrow. It would not be convenient to take you and the babies. Stay at home and take good care of them, okay?” Ye Sichen sat down and looked at Xia Nuan.

Last time, he planned to take Xia Nuan and the babies to his home in Modu City, but they delayed resulting from the affair of Xiu Lin’s aunt. They had never returned home since then.

But this time, he returned to Modu City to perform. He didn’t want to bring a babysitter and his babies to the public because the media in Modu City had a keen interest in exploring his private life. In a word, he didn’t want to raise any unnecessary issues.

Moreover, Ming Sen worked at his manor in Modu City…

Xia Nuan held the juice and lowered her head. Her uneasy face was reflected in the liquid.

“I will do my best to take care of them. And, sir, there is something I want to tell you.” Xia Nuan held the cup and tightened it little by little.

“Sure, go ahead.” Seeing her embarrassment, Ye Sichen seemed to be aware of something.

“Well, I really don’t want us to be misunderstood by others. Can I stay away from you when you are present?” She heard what Ye Ranni said just now.

She never thought about having the secret affections with Ye Sichen, but she felt really uncomfortable when she heard such misunderstandings.

Ye Sichen took a sip of the orange juice and then muffled, “You’re right. Although you are upright, others will not think so.”

“That’s true.” Xia Nuan echoed.

Ye Sichen got up, “Have you washed my suit? Find it out and bring it back to my bedroom.”

As Xia Nuan just said something about the avoidance, he immediately began to carry it out.

Xia Nuan folded his suit well and handed it to him. Ye Sichen carried the clothes and prepared to go back to his bedroom.

When he walked to the door, he turned around and said to her in a serious way, “In order to avoid any suspicions, you’d better not get in or out of my bedroom and study.”

Xia Nuan shook her head, “No, sir. I definitely won’t do that.”

Ye Sichen nodded. After he kept in a silence for a moment, he asked, “I am still not assured. We should make a rule. If you enter my room, you must be punished.”

“Ah?” Xia Nuan saw the seriousness on his face. which seemed that he paid special attention to this matter. She had no choice but said, “Okay, sir. It’s fine to make a rule.”

She defended against him inside. She would not enter his bedroom voluntarily and she would not make an exception, even if the rule was set.

Ye Sichen touched his chin and thought about it. Then he said, “If you enter my bedroom and study without my permission, you will be punished to ride a roller coaster.”

“Roller coaster?” Xia Nuan almost dropped her chin by surprise.

Ye Sichen was really childish, but his smile was full of the cunning of an adult.

“Deal! A roller coaster ride shall be required for every violation of the rule.”

“Well, sir. I fully agree with you.” Although she was afraid of heights, she believed that she would never go in or out of his bedroom without his permission.

At night, Wuyou and Nianci’s bedroom was suddenly powered off. There was an electronic lock installed in their room. Because of the blackout, Xia Nuan couldn’t open the door, only standing outside with the two babies in the stroller. She had no choice but to look for Ramon’s help to repair it.

Ramon came over with a few staff members and checked it for a long time, but nothing was found out in the end.

“You can’t rest in this bedroom with them tonight. The wires here are broken. I need to scissor off the connected part. This may cause blackout in several rooms.” Ramon said.

Hearing it, Xia Nuan then pushed Wuyou and Nianci to her bedroom.

After dinner, Xia Nuan was about to bath Wuyou and Nianci, but her room suddenly ran out of electricity as well. She went to ask Ramon. The latter told her several bedrooms had been powered off because of the wire connection, and they could only be repaired tomorrow.

Wuyou and Nianci didn’t go to sleep because they were not accustomed to the darkness. They held Xia Nuan tight and muttered respectively, seemingly expressing their dissatisfactions with the power failure.

Xia Nuan patted and lulled them as she walked out of the room. There was no power failure in the living room outside. However, they could not stay in the living room at night. She didn’t care about it, but how could the babies make do with it.

“So far, all the rooms, except Mr. Ye’s bedroom, are powered off. The babies are afraid of darkness! Hurry up and take them there.” Ramon walked over, urged Xia Nuan and helped her carrying Wuyou.

“How about Lian’s room? Does there have an outage?” In order to avoid suspicions, Xia Nuan did not want to enter Ye Sichen’s bedroom.

Moreover, she would break the rule they set before if she did so.

Ramon frowned, “Lian’s room has only a single bed. It’s too small for you to sleep. You can go to Mr. Ye’s bedroom and lull them to sleep. When they fall asleep, you can go back to Lian’s room.”

There was no better way. She would make do with herself rather than Wuyou and Nianci.

Xia Nuan walked into Ye Sichen’s bedroom accompanied by Ramon.

“Mr. Ramon, could you please not tell Mr. Ye that I have been here when he comes back? You can tell him that you comforted the babies until they were asleep.”

Ramon agreed pleasantly.

Fortunately, Ye Sichen had not come back. Xia Nuan was a little relaxed.

Ramon asked Xia Nuan to lull Wuyou and Nianci to sleep until they fell asleep. At that time, Ye Sichen would come back and Xia Nuan could go back to Lian’s room for a sleep.

Xia Nuan breastfed them and put them into the cradle that Ramon pushed over. This time, they held her shoulders with one hand respectively and put their chins on her shoulders. They refused to lie down and sleep.

Xia Nuan had to put them on Ye Sichen’s double bed, sitting on the edge of the bed and slightly patting them.

She looked at the watch from time to time and only hoped that they would fall asleep quickly so that she could retreat from Ye Sichen’s room.

She knew well that once they fell asleep, they wouldn’t wake up until the next morning.

There were still the mint scents lingering on the double bed, and it was inexplicably mixed with the flavor of the violets. Feeling like she was possessed by the devil, Xia Nuan remembered last time she helped him take the medicine…

Her face burned as she thought of it. And she couldn’t help but touch her face.

Xia Nuan, you shouldn’t think of these affairs. You, ordinary as a dust; while he, remarkable as a king…

Her thoughts became clear little and little.

She hummed and stayed by the two babies until they fell asleep.

For a long time, they tightly held her two index fingers with their plump little hands. Then they fell asleep comfortably.

After Xia Nuan took a nap, she could leave finally. She slightly picked them up from the double bed and put them in the cradle.

After everything was settled properly, Xia Nuan was about to rush to leave.

Suddenly, the door was opened. Unfortunately, it was Ye Sichen who stood there.

What a coincidence! The moment she was about to leave, he came back!

Thinking of the rule set on the daytime during their conversation, she felt uncomfortable.

“I didn’t expect that Ms. Xia would break the rule so soon.”

Ye Sichen stepped a little bit closer to her and loosened his collar. Then he took off his regular black clothes and hung it on the hanger.

“I have a good reason for it, sir. Except this bedroom, the other bedrooms had power failures. Wuyou and Nianci are afraid of darkness…”

“It doesn’t make any sense for you to explain it. The fact is that you break my rule.”

Ye Sichen stood a little bit closer to her with his arms crossed, which made Xia Nuan step back consciously.

“So, you have to be punished.” Ye Sichen said in a low-pitched voice with a somewhat hoarse tone.

Xia Nuan was helpless, “But sir, I have to take care of the babies…”

“You have to be ready to accept the punishment.” Ye Sichen took a look at his son and daughter asleep and then he smiled slightly.

“It’s late at night.” The roller coaster was in the amusement park and it was closed surely at this time. Moreover, thinking of riding a roller coaster in the late night, she felt scared.

“Just at this time will I have time to punish you.” It didn’t sound like that he was joking. She could tell from his words that he was serious.

Whether his words were real or not, she couldn’t be perfunctory with her boss’s words. Xia Nuan had no choice but to accept his punishment.

However, it was strange tonight that all rooms were powered off, except his room…

This time, Ye Sichen didn’t dress himself up as a beard man. He disguised himself on a black Arabic suit and covered his head and face with a black veil, except for his eyes.

According to his plan, he drove ahead in the direction of the amusement park.
