Chapter 444: Chapter 444 Hot Comments

"Hehe..." Chen Ningxi laughed, "He works hard too, give him a break when he gets home, don’t judge him too harshly."

Liang Lei frowned, "I don’t know what’s wrong with me, I just feel angry with no outlet. I even went to see a Chinese medicine doctor. I asked him if there’s something wrong with me, why I’m always so irritable and want to curse people. Guess what the doctor said."

Chen Ningxi shook her head.

Liang Lei rolled her eyes, "He said there’s nothing wrong with me, I’m just simply uncouth."

"Pfft..." Chen Ningxi couldn’t hold it in, "Where did you see this doctor?"

Liang Lei said, "A few days ago, there was a Chinese medicine consultation at the pharmacy downstairs. I was curious, so I went to get my pulse checked. When looking for a Chinese doctor, you have to find an older one. Among all the doctors, only his hair was white, he must be experienced. All the other doctors kept prescribing medicine, so I thought I’d get a few prescriptions too, but he said I’m uncouth! Didn’t even give me a single prescription."

Chen Ningxi laughed, "Not being ill is actually a good thing."

Liang Lei yawned again, and Chen Ningxi told her to take a nap. Liang Lei said, "Since you’re here, I want to chat a bit more with you."

Chen Ningxi said, "You’ve got dark circles under your eyes, you should get some sleep."

Liang Lei did feel a bit sleepy, "Alright, I’ll sleep for a bit."

Chen Ningxi helped her lay down her pillow. As Liang Lei got comfortable, she looked at Chen Ningxi in front of her and said, "Ningxi, don’t go."

"Okay," Chen Ningxi smiled and bent her head down. The child in her arms yawned drowsily.

"Manman is sleepy too."

Chen Ningxi gently rocked the child in the room, humming a soft melody, "The dark sky hangs down, the bright stars follow, insects fly, insects fly, who are you missing... mmmm..."

As Liang Lei listened, her eyelids grew heavier, and she dozed off unknowingly.

At this time, a rumor about a female executive at Danjiang Power being infertile spread like wildfire. The post had pictures and testimonies. Initially, the clicks were not many, but as hot comments appeared, the views skyrocketed.

The top comment: She had an abortion for her ex-boyfriend, several of them.

The second comment: I know her, she’s a manager at Danjiang Power, a real beauty, great figure, became a manager at a young age, youth is indeed an asset.

The third comment: Behind every successful man is a successful woman, but behind every successful woman, who knows how many men supported her.

The fourth comment: Any woman who manages to make it on the political scene, everyone knows what’s going on.

The fifth comment: So beautiful, if I were her boss, I couldn’t resist either.

The post was filled with vulgar comments, and some even dug into Chen Ningxi’s family background, exposing that her parents were high-ranking officials, even her husband’s identity and hotel were revealed.

"Waa..." Manman cried out.

Chen Ningxi quickly patted her, and the sound also woke Liang Lei, who groggily said, "Oh no, crying again, my sleep is so fragmented. Ningxi, give her to me, Manman’s hungry."

She handed the child to Liang Lei, who took her and cleaned her up before feeding her.

Chen Ningxi said, "Being a mom is really not easy."

Liang Lei sighed, "I never understood the saying you don’t know your parents’ grace until you raise a child, but now I totally get it."

Seeing Liang Lei radiate maternal love, Chen Ningxi felt more deeply the selflessness and greatness of mothers.

As they were talking, Liang Lei’s phone rang.

She picked up, "Xuanxuan, what’s up?... What?"

Chen Ningxi saw her brow furrow, and didn’t know what was said on the phone, but Liang Lei’s expression suddenly became ugly.

"That’s nonsense, send it to me to have a look."

Liang Lei hung up the phone, and Chen Ningxi noticed her unhappy look, asking, "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing." Liang Lei suddenly remembered something and said to Chen Ningxi, "Ningxi, I’m thirsty, could you pour me a glass of warm water?"

Watching her leave with the cup, Liang Lei quickly opened the link a friend had sent her. The words on the headline immediately caught her attention. Although the full article didn’t mention Chen Ningxi’s name, the identifiers of Danjiang Power and a female manager were enough to confirm it was about Chen Ningxi.

Originally, Liang Lei didn’t believe it, but seeing the hospital diagnosis and photos of early pregnancy tests in more than a dozen garbage bags, everything confirmed the poster’s claims.

Just as she was reading the news, Cheng Qiaobei’s call came in.

Startled, Liang Lei answered, "Hello?"

Cheng Qiaobei’s voice was unusually serious, "Liang Lei, is Ningxi at your house?"

Liang Lei replied, "Yes."

Cheng Qiaobei said, "Don’t let her check her phone, I’m coming over right now."

Liang Lei tentatively asked, "You’ve seen it too?"

Cheng Qiaobei: "...Yes."

Liang Lei further asked, "Is it really true about Ningxi?"

Cheng Qiaobei: "It’s not important."

Liang Lei insisted, "I’m asking if it’s true?"

Cheng Qiaobei: "Yes."

Liang Lei couldn’t hold back her tears, her eyes reddening, "...Alright," she sniffled, "I understand."

As she put down her phone, Chen Ningxi came back in, "Here, it’s warm."

Liang Lei dared not meet Chen Ningxi’s eyes, she took the cup with her head down and took a sip, turning her face away. Chen Ningxi stood by the bed, noticing her eyes were red.

"What’s wrong?" Liang Lei held back a sob, "That damned Lin Hanrui, he can’t even get a glass of water right, I’m so upset I want to cry."

Chen Ningxi laughed, took the cup and set it aside, then grabbed some tissues to wipe her tears.

"Don’t cry, it’s just a cup of water, anyone can get it."

The more Liang Lei wiped her tears, the more they flowed. Chen Ningxi had heard that women could have emotional instability after giving birth. She bent down, cradled Liang Lei, and gently patted her back, softly comforting:

"There, there, I know you’ve been through a lot. I’ll come over more to keep you company, don’t cry, okay."

Liang Lei sobbed, "Am I having hormone imbalances? Why else would I become this crybaby?"

"Probably related," Chen Ningxi smiled.

Her phone rang from her bag, and as Chen Ningxi stood up to answer it, Liang Lei suddenly said, "Don’t pick up the phone."

"!" Chen Ningxi was taken aback, "What’s up?"

Liang Lei blinked, unable to come up with an excuse, then suddenly realized, "Manman is about to sleep. Picking up the phone might wake her, shhh..."

Chen Ningxi looked at the child in her arms, who was indeed dozing off. She carefully took her phone from the bag, turned it to silent, and whispered:

"I’ll take the call outside."

"Ningxi." Liang Lei pressed urgently.

Chen Ningxi saw it was an unknown number, maybe it was another problem with the power line.

She continued, "Close the door, so Manman won’t hear."

Liang Lei got anxious, "Ningxi, can you hold Manman for a moment? I suddenly have a stomach ache and need to go to the bathroom."

"Quick, give her to me, you hurry along." Chen Ningxi put down her phone, took Manman, who then started crying, and urgently tried to soothe the child.

Liang Lei went to the bathroom, taking Chen Ningxi’s phone with her. Strange numbers kept calling, and there were also texts with content too vile to describe.

"A bunch of bastards!" She cursed, enraged, just as the doorbell rang as well.
