Chapter 269: 269 I’ll have another baby with you (one more update)
In another room of the hotel, Quan Nianfeng felt a bit disappointed, "Brother Ye Fei, is Acheng really not coming with us?"
Of course, Ye Fei couldn’t say the young master was currently spending time with the Young Madam, and as for the return date, it definitely wasn’t very certain, "The young master has other matters to deal with; I’ll take you guys back first."
"You think Acheng is like us, with nothing to do all day," Nianyan fiddled with the Rubik’s Cube in his hands, "Brother Ye Fei, when are we going back?"
"The plane is at three in the afternoon," Ye Fei checked the time, "It’s still early, Erbao and Sanbao, if there’s anywhere you want to go, you can go have some fun."
"There’s nowhere fun in Haicheng," Nianfeng couldn’t muster any enthusiasm either, "I haven’t eaten or slept well these past few days, I want to catch up on some sleep in the room."
Since the two of them didn’t want to go out, Ye Fei had no choice but to go out and buy food for them.
...
Mingzhu Mall had changed owners, and nobody knew who the new boss was. Xiaofeng decided to first visit the other two major malls and try her luck.
Having come all this way, she had to at least get her products sold.
Xiaofeng originally didn’t want Ye Cheng to accompany her, but he insisted on going with her.
With Ye Cheng accompanying Xiaofeng, Wu Ershun and Wu Yifan naturally couldn’t join them; what would they do there, act as third wheels?
"I know one or two managers from Cuiwei Shopping Mall and Da Haicheng Shopping Mall. If necessary, I can introduce Xiaofeng to them," said Yang Zhenye, sitting in the manager’s seat at Mingzhu Mall; of course, he knew some people.
Especially people in this circle; most of them know each other.
Wu Yifan glanced at the watch on his wrist, "This is not urgent, let’s see if she has any good methods first."
If Ye Cheng hadn’t come, Wu Yifan might have been more concerned about Xiaofeng’s affairs, but now with Ye Cheng present, if he showed too much concern, he’d be afraid of causing Ye Cheng to misunderstand.
Although Su Xiaofeng was somewhat special, he understood – she was now Ye Cheng’s wife, his benefactor’s woman, not someone he could get close to. freeweɓnovel.cøm
Unless Su Xiaofeng and Ye Cheng got divorced. If that day came, perhaps he’d have the chance to stand openly by Xiaofeng’s side.
Yang Zhenwei found it a bit strange, "Wasn’t it odd, the incident yesterday? Who has such a big hand? Such power must be terrifying."
"I’ve been in Haicheng for many years and don’t know; how could I, someone who just arrived from my hometown, understand the ins and outs here?" Wu Yifan had speculated, but he couldn’t guess who it might be.
"Although I’ve been in Haicheng for many years, I previously only dealt with people related to shopping malls. As for other people, with my current status, I can’t even make contact, let alone figure out who would take action against the Mi Family," Yang Zhenye paused, "However, some time ago, Director Du mentioned that Haicheng’s Ming Family wanted to strike at the Mi Family; I don’t know if they have a hand behind this incident."
Haicheng’s Ming Family, Wu Yifan knew quite a bit about them. Years ago, they were weaker than the Mi Family, but in the past two years, a member of the Ming Family had risen to a higher position than Mi Xue’s father. The now-influential Ming Family naturally didn’t see the Mi Family in a positive light and seemed eager to pull the Mi Family down.
"This way, it’s not impossible," Wu Yifan, familiar with the overt and covert struggles from a young age, had a deeper understanding than most, "Maybe the Ming Family has climbed onto high branches; otherwise, they wouldn’t have the courage to confront the Mi Family directly."
The Mi Family’s status in Haicheng was neither too large nor too small; ordinary families wouldn’t think of targeting the Mi Family.
"Who cares who it is," Wu Ershun didn’t care about these matters, "It’s better if the Mi Family can’t make waves; I just can’t like that Mi Xue."
If the Mi Family were powerful, Mi Xue could do as she pleases, which was definitely not possible.
"Right, what do the Mi Family’s affairs have to do with us," Wu Yifan looked downstairs, "It’s been some time since I last visited the school, and since Ershun is also here, why not go back to school for a visit."
"Sounds good."
...
"Don’t you have a lot of matters to take care of at home, what’s this? Not in a hurry to go back anymore?" Xiaofeng walked through the mall with Ye Cheng, casually speaking as she looked at the dazzling array of goods in the mall.
"I have time to accompany you for another day here," Ye Cheng looked at Xiaofeng’s belly, "It seems to have grown quite a bit."
Xiaofeng, suddenly feeling playful, teased him, "I feel my belly looks bigger than most people’s, could it be possible that it’s twins or boy and girl twins?"
Of course, Xiaofeng knew Ye Cheng wasn’t an obstetrician, but he could take pulses. Didn’t TV shows always depict that with just a pulse check, one could tell whether there was one or two in the belly, or whether it was a boy or a girl?
In response to Xiaofeng’s question, Ye Cheng’s eyebrows lifted as he extended his hand, "Give me your right hand."
Xiaofeng obediently handed her right hand over, and Ye Cheng seriously took her pulse. After a while, he let go of Xiaofeng’s hand, dead serious, "It should be twins."
"Really or are you just kidding?" Xiaofeng looked at him, "Are you sure? Don’t get my hopes up for nothing."
Ye Cheng wrapped his hand around her left hand with a gentle tone, "If not, I’ll accompany you to give birth to another, making a pair."
Xiaofeng’s face suddenly reddened.
Previously, she had thought Ye Cheng to be the aloof type, suddenly talking to her about this, she indeed felt — her heart beating faster.
Ye Cheng looked at her suddenly flushed face, feeling as if he had eaten honey, gently leaning in, "How do you like my suggestion?"
Xiaofeng replied with a smile, her smile not earth-shatteringly beautiful, but definitely genuine, "Having heard you say that, I’m actually somewhat looking forward to it."
Hearing her reply, Ye Cheng’s smile curved into a hundred and eighty degrees, "I am looking forward to it too, Mrs. Ye."
"If we have our own, won’t you treat this one poorly?" Xiaofeng suddenly asked.
"If you say this one isn’t mine again, I will have to punish you," Ye Cheng feigned anger, "And in the future, you’re not allowed to instill this idea in our child."
Listening to Ye Cheng’s words, Xiaofeng was genuinely moved.
The other party genuinely accepting her and the little life inside her of course made her happy.
"Ye Cheng." Having lived twice, she had never been as happy as today, this man now truly belonged to her, "I know you’ll be a good father."
The original host’s encounter was unfortunate, but her rebirth into the original host was fortunate, because she met Ye Cheng.
...
"Grandfather." Xu Xuezi stood in front of Elder Xu, not understanding why her grandfather had summoned her.
"Xuezi." Elder Xu put down the brush in his hand, happily waving at Xu Xuezi, "Come, help me look, how is grandfather’s calligraphy?"
Xu Xuezi, hearing her grandfather’s request, walked up to inspect it closely, "Grandfather, your handwriting is getting better each day, like an old pine tree, strong and forceful, reaching for the skies, grand and magnificent."
Elder Xu listened to Xu Xuezi’s words and laughed heartily, his laughter was sonorous, "It’s still you, girl, who understands me best."
Thinking of something, he walked over and sat down at a mahogany chair opposite, "Your feelings for the Gu family boy, your grandfather knows too. You also heard what Elder Gu said last time, I am thinking that the Gu family probably has no intention of forming a marriage alliance with our family, so I wanted to ask you, what are your plans?"
Xu Xuezi poured a cup of tea for her grandfather, filled it up, "Don’t laugh at me, grandfather, but ever since I was a young girl, I have had an admiration for Acheng, and it has not changed over the years. During the three years that Acheng was not in the Imperial Capital, indeed countless young masters from prestigious families have shown me goodwill, and I haven’t paid them any mind, you know why, don’t you?"
Elder Xu certainly understood what Xu Xuezi was waiting for, "If we could form a marriage alliance with the Gu family, our two houses could be a strong union in the Imperial Capital. But there is one thing in the middle that I need to make clear to you, it is unlikely that we have any hope of a marriage alliance with the Gu family."
Xu Xuezi’s smile froze, "Grandfather, what’s the matter?"
"Elder Gu’s exact words were that Acheng has a health problem, a kind that prevents him from getting close to women. I am thinking that perhaps this has some connection with an incident from the past." When the Xu family brought up the marriage alliance with Elder Gu, his response made it clear that, due to that incident from the past, the marital ties between the Gu family and the Xu family are impossible.
Xu Xuezi watched her grandfather quietly, feeling a bit anxious, not understanding what her grandfather was about to say.
"Acheng has been a gifted child since he was young, whether it’s memory or other aspects, he has demonstrated exceptional talent. The Gu boy’s capability, of course, is not good news for the Xu family. It means that our Xu family may be forever subordinate to the Gu family."
Xu Xuezi couldn’t help but interject, "Grandfather, didn’t you think of forming an alliance through marriage back then?"
If the Xu family and Gu family were to unite, there would no longer be talk of who was first or second, we would all be one family, wouldn’t we?
"You’re a young lady; how could you understand the intricacies of these matters? Even with a marriage alliance, our Xu family can only be the perpetual number two, never the first."
Xu Xuezi’s brows furrowed, she had a premonition that what her grandfather was about to say next was not going to be good news.
Elder Xu slowly began to speak.
Xu Xuezi listened with a pounding heart.
Impossible, impossible.
Acheng is so capable, how could he possibly suffer from that kind of illness.
She didn’t believe it.
No, she had to fight for her own happiness, she had to make her feelings clear to Ye Cheng, she wanted to marry him, to have and raise children with him.
Not for the Gu family, nor for the Xu family, but just to be with him forever.
