Chapter 1008: She Wasn’t Aware That She Was Being Watched
“I accidentally hurt myself but I’m fine,” He Xiyan said as she sat on the floor with her children.
She noticed that her children were playing with plasticine and had already created several figurines.
He Xiyan looked at the figurines created by her daughter and she couldn’t decipher what they were supposed to be.
“Xi Xi, what is this?” she asked.
Xi Xi chuckled and made a face at her mother. She knew her figurines weren’t well made so she was a little embarrassed to reveal what they were supposed to be.
“Mom, this is a cup, this is a spoon, and this is poop,” Xi Xi said as she pointed out the items to her mother.
He Xiyan was dumbfounded.
She looked at those lumps of plasticine and none of the other figurines looked like what they were supposed to be with the exception of the one that was shaped like poop. Her daughter must have been trying to fool around when she made these figurines.
Although these looked nothing like her daughter’s description, she didn’t want to break the news to her daughter. After all, children should receive more encouragement.
“Xi Xi…” He Xiyan patted her daughter’s head and said with a smile. “That was great. It was much better than what you made a few days ago. This spoon looks very realistic.”
She sounded very encouraging and didn’t notice that Yuan Yuan was already rolling his eyes.
Yuan Yuan chuckled to himself.
These figurines were so ugly so how could his mother claim that they were realistic? What a joke!
His mother was getting better at telling lies.
He Xiyan looked at Yuan Yuan’s figurines and saw that he had created two human-like figurines that seemed very realistic and they were even wearing clothes. She picked one up and she became more excited after she examined it and gave Yuan Yuan a thumbs up.
“Yuan Yuan, that’s great. You’ve done much better than I could,” He Xiyan was surprised to find out that her son was so nimble with his hands. She didn’t remember seeing Yuan Yuan playing with plasticine on a day-to-day basis, so she was surprised to see how well he could mold plasticine. He was truly a clever kid.
“Mom… this is you,” Yuan Yuan said as he pointed at the figurine in her hand.
Could his mom tell that he had molded the plasticine in her image?
“Oh…” He Xiyan took another look at the figurine in her hand. She didn’t pay much attention to it earlier but after taking a second look, she noticed that there were indeed some similarities. The figurine’s dress and hairstyle were basically copies of her style.
“Kiddo, you did great!” He Xiyan smiled happily and couldn’t help but give Yuan Yuan a peck on the cheek.
Xi Xi quickly stuck her face in front of her mother’s face when she saw her mother kiss her brother.
“Mom, me too,” she said.
He Xiyan smiled and gave her daughter a kiss on the cheek as well.
They played happily together.
Although He Xiyan had injured her right hand, she could still move her fingers. Thus, she sat in between her children and started to teach them both how to mold plasticine animals.
They only retired to bed at 10 PM that night.
He Xiyan didn’t know that her every action was being monitored and she was completely unaware that a man could see everything she did within the premises of the castle.
At the mansion south of the city.
Ye Hao lay in bed and stared intently at his phone where he could see the feed from the closed-circuit cameras he had secretly installed within the castle.
There didn’t use to be a closed-circuit camera within the bedroom but he had installed it just before he moved out of the castle. It was a secret camera and was placed in a hidden corner of the room so it was very difficult to discover its position.
Ye Hao stared at his phone for a long time and watched his ex-wife playing with her children. He also noticed the bandage around her hand. She seemed to have been injured but he guessed that it wasn’t a serious injury because it didn’t affect the movement in her hand.
Then, he watched Yan Yan emerged from the bathroom after her bath and continued to watch as she changed and retired for bed. He only turned off the closed-circuit camera after the lights were turned off.
