Chapter 467 Guilty and Daring Not to Enter the House
"Sister, I'm here to take Haitang home."
He Yuzhu's voice was gentle but with a hint of barely perceptible nervousness. He stood outside the door and knocked gently. His fingertips jumped on the door a few times and then stopped, as if to give the people in the room some time to buffer.
However, the only response he got was silence, and the door was tightly closed, as if separating the two worlds.
He sighed, and his voice unconsciously rose a few notes, with a hint of firmness that could not be refused: "Haitang, open the door, I know you are inside."
Inside the house, Yu Haitang's face turned pale instantly when she heard He Yuzhu's words. She stopped abruptly, clasped her hands together tightly, and her nails almost dug into her palms without her realizing it.
She looked at Yu Li beside her in panic, her eyes slightly red, with a light of helplessness and plea in her eyes, as if she was a small boat lost in the wind and rain, eagerly looking for a safe harbor.
Seeing this, Yu Li's heart tightened. She quickly stood up, took a few steps to her sister, and hugged her gently. Their bodies were tightly attached to each other at this moment.
"Haitang, don't be afraid."
Yu Li's voice was low and powerful. She held her sister's trembling hands lovingly and patted them gently, as gently as if she was patting a child to sleep.
"How about this, I'll go back with you. When the time comes, you have to show your sincerity, admit your mistakes sincerely, and apologize to Yu Shui sincerely.
Remember, sincerity is the key to resolving all misunderstandings. As long as Yu Shui can feel your regret and stop blaming you, He Da Qing and Yu Zhu will not make things too difficult for you for the sake of the child. "
As Yu Haitang listened to her sister's words, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes. She looked up at Yu Li, with a hint of uncertainty in her voice: "Really? Can things really be solved so easily?" Her tone was full of fear of the unknown and uncertainty about the future.
Seeing this, Yu Li smiled gently, her smile showing both her doting on her sister and her grasp of the situation. "Of course, Haitang, have you forgotten what your biggest bargaining chip is?"
As she spoke, her eyes unconsciously fell on Yu Haitang's slightly bulging belly, her eyes full of tenderness and expectation.
"You are carrying the He family's child, a person that no one can ignore. This is your 'golden ticket to avoid death'. As long as you can sincerely apologize to the family in the name of this child, I believe they will understand."
When Yu Haitang heard this, a gleam of sudden enlightenment flashed in her eyes. She gently stroked her belly, feeling the beating of life inside, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
She took a deep breath, as if to cheer herself up, and then nodded firmly: "Okay, I will. I will apologize to the rain and to everyone."
Yu Li nodded with satisfaction, a barely perceptible smile appearing on the corner of her mouth. That smile contained both encouragement for her sister and relief about the situation.
She gently pushed the door open, her movements smooth and firm, as if paving the way for what was to come. The door hinges slowly turned, making a slight creaking sound, in stark contrast to the noise outside.
He Yuzhu stood outside the door, the sunlight cast mottled shadows on his face, making his face look even gloomier. But he still tried to control his emotions and did not immediately get angry at Yu Haitang.
His eyes moved back and forth between Yu Li and Yu Haitang, and finally landed on Yu Haitang. There was both blame and a subtle concern in his eyes.
"The rain has arrived. We need to go back quickly and not keep everyone waiting."
He Yuzhu's voice was deep and powerful, and every word seemed to be spoken after careful consideration. As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Yu Haitang should follow him.
Yu Haitang lowered her head, her long hair covering most of her face, revealing only a pair of apologetic eyes. She slowly walked in front of He Yuzhu, stopped, and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito:
"Brother Yuzhu, I'm sorry. I really didn't expect the rain to come back so early. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have overslept even if my stomach was upset."
As she spoke, she gently stroked her abdomen, as if she was looking for a reasonable excuse for her mistake.
Hearing this, He Yuzhu's eyes involuntarily fell on her belly, which was slightly bulging, indicating the presence of a new life.
The anger in his eyes instantly dissipated, replaced by a complex emotion. He sighed and shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, I know you didn't mean it. Just be more careful next time, come back with me."
Yu Li bit her lower lip gently, a trace of determination and worry flashed in her eyes. She looked at He Yuzhu again, and her voice was a little more gentle and pleading:
"Yuzhu, I can't get over what happened yesterday. Haitang...is even in the hospital. If I'm with you today, I can make sure things are handled more properly. What do you think?"
Hearing this, He Yuzhu's eyes moved between the two of them, finally stopping on Yu Haitang's slightly nervous eyes. He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yu Haitang.
"How can it be inappropriate, sis!"
Yu Haitang almost blurted out the words, her eyes flashing with unquestionable determination. She put her arms around Yu Li's arms, as if to emphasize the close relationship between them.
"You are my sister, we are all family. With you here, I am more confident. Brother Yuzhu, don't you agree?" She said while secretly glancing at He Yuzhu's reaction, afraid of missing any subtle changes on his face and being directly rejected with a "not suitable."
"Sister, then you can come with us so you can be a witness." He Yuzhu watched Yu Haitang finish what he said and stopped trying to stop Yu Li. He thought that if Yu Li bore witness, the facts would be more convincing.
After saying that, He Yuzhu turned around and walked towards the He family, and Yu Haitang and Yu Li followed him. Along the way, the three of them didn't speak, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
......
As Yu Haitang stepped over the threshold of the He family's front door, an invisible pressure seemed to suddenly descend upon her. She stopped involuntarily, and her eyes met three pairs of sharp eyes in the room.
At that moment, her heartbeat accelerated suddenly, and two red clouds instantly appeared on her cheeks, a color mixed with guilt and embarrassment.
She subconsciously shrank back, as if to escape from the sudden scrutiny. Finally, she leaned lightly on Yu Li who followed closely behind her, seeking comfort and support from her loved ones.
"Oh, you are too guilty to enter the house!"
He Yushui's voice came from inside the house with a hint of teasing, like a sharp blade, cutting through the already tense air.
There was unspoken sarcasm in her words. A sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes scanned back and forth over Haitang, as if she wanted to see through her.
