Chapter 76 -76: Want You to Come See Me
“Miss Tang, do you want to leave now? I’ll arrange for a car to take you,” Uncle Wen changed the subject.
Tang Yu didn’t ask any further.
Indeed, Uncle Wen belonged to the Ye Mansion. Even if he truly knew something, he wouldn’t tell.
The way in and out of the Ye Mansion was not only lengthy but also easy to get lost in.
Dragging oneself along with such a fatigued body, one would surely faint halfway.
So she sat in the car arranged by Uncle Wen without objection.
She didn’t let the car take her to the residential compound, opting to get off at the subway station instead.
Due to sheer exhaustion, both mental and physical, she almost slept past her stop on the subway.
Exiting the subway station, she walked towards the compound.
As she walked, her eyes couldn’t help but brim red.
She felt, everyone passing by her seemed happier than herself.
Who else had a life as miserable as hers?
Having nearly lost her life before seeing the sun the next day.
The only way to suppress the tears in her eyes was to keep thinking of her quadruplets.
“Big sister.”
Tang Yu was taken aback, turned around, and was surprised to see the woman approaching.
Tang Yifei came to a stop in front of her, smiling sweetly, “Big sister, I’m so happy I finally get to see you.”
Tang Yu warily eyed her, “You know where I live?”
“I don’t, but dad said you would come out from this subway entrance, so I’ve been waiting here for you. Big sister, I’m sorry, it was my fault for being weak-hearted and indulging dad in doing those things to you.”
Weak-hearted?
Tang Yu didn’t understand why Tang Yifei appeared, let alone comprehend what she was saying.
The words Tang Yifei said about selling her more times were still echoing in her ears!
“Actually, our fates are connected. When we were very young, dad was unkind to me and mom, he hit us too,” Tang Yifei said pitifully. “Especially when I made a mistake, he’d lock me in a dark room. So after dad caught you, I could only help him.”
When Tang Yu heard that Tang Yifei had also been locked in a dark room, her heart stirred slightly.
She remembered too well the fear from her childhood, the absolute terror that made her dare not disobey.
“Big sister, you must be very happy now, right? I also want to break away from dad, can you help me?” Tang Yifei stepped forward, taking Tang Yu’s hand as she asked pitifully.
Tang Yu withdrew her hand uncomfortably, deliberately ignoring the look of disappointment on Tang Yifei’s face, saying, “It’s not that I managed to leave because I had the ability; it’s because he didn’t want me. I can’t help you.”
Having said that, she walked away directly.
She still had to be wary of Tang Yifei following her, fortunately, she didn’t.
She took a different route back to her compound.
Opening the door and entering the apartment, Tang Yu’s body, pushed to its limit, suddenly collapsed, dropping to the floor.
Seeing her like that, Li Xue hurried from the room to help her, “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”
Tang Yu shook her head, “I’m fine.” After leaning on Li Xue to stand up, she asked, “You’re home?”
“Yes, I came back after finishing work. I was about to go pick up the kids. Are you sure you’re okay? You look very pale!” Li Xue looked at her worriedly.
“Really, I’m fine, just a bit tired, I’ll be better after some rest.”
“Then go and rest.” Li Xue assumed she was just tired from filming.
“I’ll go pick up the kids later.”
“Forget it, what if you fall in front of the kids? Wouldn’t that scare them?”
Tang Yu returned to her room, flung herself onto the bed, and felt the densely spread pain throughout her body.
It felt as if her bones had been disassembled and then reassembled incorrectly, very uncomfortable.
The terror that gripped her the previous night still made her shudder at the thought.
No, she had to leave this place immediately!
Because she realized, even if she didn’t present herself to him, Ye Sihan would still come looking for her!
Who knew when the next storm would strike?
She was frightened!
She absolutely didn’t want such a thing to happen again!
She pulled out her mobile phone, found the number for government offices, and called, “Hello, I’ve lost my passport, can I report it as lost?”
“Yes, you can.”
“How long will it take to issue a replacement after reporting the loss?”
“About half a month.”
After making things clear, Tang Yu hung up the phone.
Half a month, it’s not that long.
After all, if she really planned to leave, she definitely needed to make thorough preparations, otherwise, if Ye Sihan caught her, the punishment would certainly be more severe than the first time, considering her multiple escape attempts!
She still remembered the first time when Ye Sihan locked her in a room for three days without food or water.
She had intended to lie down for a while and to start cooking once Li Xue went to pick up the children.
But she fell into a deep sleep.
When she became conscious again, she felt a heavy weight on her chest.
Opening her tired eyes, she saw Xibao lying on her chest, staring at her with big eyes.
As soon as Xibao saw Tang Yu open her eyes, she burst into joy, “Mommy!”
Then, Junjun, Zhengzheng, and Haohao crowded around, four doughy little meatballs.
All of them had climbed onto the bed.
Tang Yu, holding Xibao on top of her, sat up, “What time is it? How long did I sleep?”
Looking at the alarm clock on the bedside table, it was already past five o’clock.
Had she slept that long?
The door opened, and Li Xue came in, “You’re awake? Did the children wake you up? They slipped in here as soon as I started cooking.” Holding Junjun, she gently pinched his chubby cheeks.
“It’s just me sleeping too long,” Tang Yu had said she would get up to cook in a while.
By then, Li Xue had already finished cooking.
She felt very embarrassed.
It showed how much her body needed rest.
She felt almost hollowed out inside.
It might take several days to recover.
But there were things that couldn’t wait, she needed to report her passport lost and get a replacement.
In the evening, she still told Li Xue about her plans to go abroad.
Li Xue was supportive, knowing that Tang Yu was anxious inside, “Good, I’ll come to visit you after you’ve settled down.”
“Mhm.”
The next morning, Tang Yu left her phone at home and took Li Xue’s phone to the authorities.
Reporting the loss and getting a replacement took less than half an hour.
She immediately returned, not daring to linger outside for too long without her phone.
That previous incident had almost exposed her to Ye Sihan.
It was very dangerous.
And Ye Sihan should know that her feeling unwell and taking a leave from the drama crew was normal.
After returning home, Li Xue went out to work.
Tang Yu prepared to change into her loungewear and lie in bed, as her waist was in the most pain, as if it were broken.
The mobile phone on the bedside table started ringing.
Glancing at the screen, the caller ID showed Yu Zhaohui.
Tang Yu hesitated before answering; she didn’t want to interact with Yu Zhaohui, but a phone call was still acceptable.
“Mom.”
“Xiaoyu, what are you doing? Have you gotten up?”
Tang Yu glanced at the clock; it was already nine o’clock.
“Is there something you need?”
“Can you come over here?”
Tang Yu definitely couldn’t, “I can’t leave this place. What’s the matter?”
“Nothing much, just feeling unwell and wanted you to come and see me.”
Tang Yu frowned, “Have you seen a doctor? What’s making you uncomfortable?”
“It’s the old problem. Every time it rains heavily, my legs hurt so much I can’t walk. It’s just rheumatism; it’ll get better in a few days. It’s just that when I’m sick, I can’t help thinking of you and wishing you were by my side.”
Tang Yu left her phone at home and went to Yu Zhaohui’s place.
She planned to take a quick look and not stay long.
In the room, Yu Zhaohui was lying in bed, evidently not in good spirits.
“I was in so much pain last night that I hardly slept at all.”
Tang Yu asked, “Has the doctor found no solution?”
