Chapter 567: Take Good Care Of Yourself
In the evening, Ye Hao went to a luxurious seafood restaurant with his parents, maids, nanny and bodyguards. The whole family enjoyed a delicious seafood dinner together with all kinds of foreign cuisine. Later, they would go to enjoy a concert together. In this whole family, however, only she was absent.
In winter, it was very cold in Ye City. In the evening, a cold northwest wind began to blow. The streets outside the castle were very empty and cold, even with few vehicles, because everybody had gone home early to celebrate the New Year.
In the castle, it was cold and empty as well. There was only one room with a faint bed lamp on.
He Xiyan stood by the window, letting the northwest wind from outside blowing on her face, also into her heart. That kind of coldness was like a cold knife cutting her heart which now had no temperature at all.
She held her cell phone tightly, still waiting for that call. She did not know how long she had been waited. However, the phone did not ring until late at night.
She took out the cell phone and had a look at it. It was a message coming in, not from her husband, but from her younger sister, Shu Man.
—- Sister He, is it convenient for you and brother-in-law tomorrow at noon? How about you come for dinner?
Following the words were a line of funny emoticons and a few words of New Year blessing.
Looking at the message, He Xiyan, out of no reason, began to cry suddenly. Tears fell from her eyes, one drop by another, onto the cold screen of her mobile phone.
After a long pause, she finally clicked on the screen and replied.

—- Okay, I will come tomorrow.
He Xiyan’s chest was painful as if she were suffocated. She did not send out the latter sentence saying that her husband would not come.
With a sigh, she clicked on the screen again and clicked on her familiar head image.
She sent several sentences.
—- Dear, remember to take good care of Xixi. There is a big difference in the temperature there. Don’t let the child catch a cold. Besides, don’t take our child to crowded places.
—- I’ll wait for you at home.
—- Good night, and take care of yourself…
He Xiyan sent several sentences in succession, but the messages she sent were like a stone sinking into the sea in silence. She didn’t get any reply from him, even without an emoticon.
Her heart ached as painfully as being pulled. Turning around, she walked to the bedside and laid the neatly folded quilt on the bed. She shrank her little body in.
Without the familiar warmth around her, she was not used to it, tossing and turning all night, unable to fall asleep for a long time. She then took out her cell phone and kept looking through the news and reports. No matter how long she looked, however, she was not sleepy at all.
A sense of inexplicable loneliness struck her. Suddenly, she felt empty all around, and her heart was empty as well.
He must be angry, she thought, because she had been with Yuanyuan in hospital for six days. But she just wanted to see her child healthy. As long as the child did not get better, she could not rest at ease. Even if she could relive the previous several days, she would still make the same choice.
Why did he get angry like this?
He Xiyan could not understand, nor did she know what she could do in the future to avoid any misunderstandings between them.
That night, she hardly closed her eyes. Instead, she kept thinking about how this marriage should continue. She knew that he loved her and that she loved him as well. However, there was always something troublesome between them, which could not be solved by love only.

Beatrice Santello
An adult imagining of Beatrice Santello's life prior to the events of Night in the Woods. There are no explicit depictions of sex here, though there are obviously adult themes and situations involving it. I wasn't going to post it to Royalroad as I didn't think Fanfiction was okay here - but now I see it is and I am quite convinced it is the best work I've ever done yet, I've got to see what any fans of NitW think about it! The first chapter was originally written as a short vignette and wasn't intended to be continued into a full blown story. It was just intended to be moody and evocative. Even though anyone that has played Night in the Woods has a good idea how this must end, I hope it will still be worth the read. Also, since I've finished writing it, I'm going to post it as one big chapter dump all at once. Cover drawing by GreasyMojo and colored by me (with permission!). I don't think it should be too risque on it's own but I suppose I'll soon find out.
