Chapter 482: Chapter 482 Crooked Thoughts

Hearing this, Ye Yujun laughed and said, "You too, why talk about these things outside."

Chen Weichuan understood what she meant, "Nothing much, just said—"

Before Chen Weichuan could finish, Zhou Yong interrupted, "Sister-in-law, don’t blame my brother, he didn’t treat me as an outsider, so he talked about it. Besides, I’m also worried about Ning Xi. I’ve watched her grow up since she was a child. I feel heartbroken seeing her hurt, let alone... sigh, my feelings are the same as yours."

Chen Ningxi said nothing and accompanied them with a smile to finish the meal.

She didn’t drink, and contacted Ye Yujun after driving home.

From what she knew about her father, he wouldn’t easily talk about her privacy.

"Mom, is Dad asleep?"

Ye Yujun: "Not yet, he’s washing his face."

Chen Ningxi: "Can you give him the phone, I want to say something to him."

There were rustling footsteps in the receiver, and Ye Yujun said, "Ning Xi, let me talk to you."

Chen Weichuan hung the towel and took the phone, "Ning Xi?"

Chen Ningxi asked, "Dad, how did you bring me up with Mr. Zou? Or did one of you bring me up first?"

Chen Weichuan mistakenly thought the conversation at the table hurt Chen Ningxi’s pride, and said, "Ning Xi, I shouldn’t have said those things."

"Dad, you misunderstood." Chen Ningxi sat at the end of her bed, "I just want to know how I was brought up?"

Chen Weichuan said, "When we met, I noticed he didn’t look well. I advised him to go to the hospital for a check-up. He also told me to take care of my health and casually asked about you and your mom. He saw your news online, comforting me not to worry or pressure you, mentioning the advancement in medical technology now, and suggested you give it a try. I told him you went for IVF."

Chen Ningxi understood, "Nothing, Dad, wash up and sleep."

After saying that, Chen Ningxi hung up the phone.

Now the truth is revealed, and it’s obvious who lied.

Chen Ningxi sent a message to Cheng Qiaobei on WeChat, asking: Are you asleep?

Cheng Qiaobei replied: No.

Followed by Chen Ningxi’s video call request, Cheng Qiaobei had just finished showering, with his hair still damp, he put the towel on the table and clicked accept.

Cheng Qiaobei smiled and asked, "Wife, a video inspection?"

Chen Ningxi glanced at him with a smile, "A video inspection isn’t convincing."

Cheng Qiaobei raised an eyebrow, "How do you want to inspect? Let me hear it."

Chen Ningxi had a mysterious expression, "Can I tell you that?"

"Alright, still leaving a backup," Cheng Qiaobei nodded, "Okay, you’ve got guts."

Cheng Qiaobei switched the video camera and panned the room, "See, there’s no one besides me, no woman."

He really didn’t need inspection, and besides, Chen Ningxi wouldn’t stoop to doing something like that.

It’s like the saying goes, if he had ill intentions, you still couldn’t catch him. Loyalty to feelings and marriage depends on self-awareness.

Chen Ningxi spoke about the question she asked her father, and Cheng Qiaobei wasn’t surprised, "Do you still think I’m overthinking it now?"

"I used to believe you too," Chen Ningxi said.

Cheng Qiaobei: "Just as women have a sixth sense, men have a feeling too. I’m a man; I understand men better than you. Some of his actions have already crossed the line."

Chen Ningxi was silent for a moment, "I’ll chat with my mom about it these two days."

Cheng Qiaobei: "It’s fine if you’ve thought about it, I support you."

Chen Ningxi checked the clock, "It’s late, let’s sleep."

Cheng Qiaobei: "Just hanging up like this? Without a sense of ritual?"

What Chen Ningxi considered a sense of ritual at most was a blown kiss, but what Cheng Qiaobei envisioned was more explosive and passionate.

"Do you want me to perform a heartfelt bedtime service?"

Chen Ningxi’s expression turned intriguing, sarcastically asking, "Bedtime service? Where did you see that?"

Cheng Qiaobei: "Uh..."

Chen Ningxi laughed, "Tell me, where did you see it?"

Cheng Qiaobei chuckled a couple of times, rarely lacking confidence, "I haven’t seen it anywhere, I just randomly thought of it."

Chen Ningxi squinted, scrutinizing him, "I don’t think you just randomly thought of it."

"Wife," Cheng Qiaobei admitted his mistake, "I was wrong, I was just blabbering, spare me this time."

Chen Ningxi pursed her lips, deliberately showing a look of dissatisfaction.

"You’ve said it all, and you think apologizing is enough?"

Cheng Qiaobei nodded his chin, "Being so far apart, it’s hard to manage. How about this, you pause being angry now, and when I come back, you continue, then I’ll coax you, how about that?"

Chen Ningxi poked the screen with her finger, "Who pauses anger like this? First time I’ve heard of it."

Cheng Qiaobei knew he’d appeased her and said, "This is just the beginning, I’ve got many more programs, for you to enjoy slowly, savor them carefully, it brings you happiness."

When he mentioned happiness, his facial expression was quite suggestive.

Chen Ningxi understood almost instantly and blushed, embarrassed, "I can’t handle your happiness. Hanging up, bye-bye."

She finished, not giving Cheng Qiaobei a chance to respond, she hung up the video call immediately.

Cheng Qiaobei chuckled, plugged his phone into the charger, and went to sleep.

This time, he came south for inspection on more than a dozen new projects, as well as three overseas projects. Originally planned for two overseas projects, Jiang Wanyi temporarily added a hotel, which delayed things by another three or four days, and he even missed Chen Ningxi’s second IVF attempt.

Accompanied by Ye Yujun, Chen Ningxi went to the hospital for the IVF. With her previous experience, she knew the side effects of some medications well, and she wasn’t overly anxious, understanding better how to relax, and maintain a calm mindset.

For the second IVF, under the doctor’s recommendation, Chen Ningxi rested in bed for three days. She informed Lei Dechang about her work and took a three-day leave from her job. Meanwhile, Ye Yujun moved to the new home to take care of her.

She always wanted to find a chance to talk with her mother about Zhou Yong, but she kept getting delayed, and tonight was a good time to chat more with her mother.

Ye Yujun came to the bedroom with a cup of warm water, "Time to take your medicine."

Just about to sit up, Chen Ningxi was supported by Ye Yujun, "Take it slow, you must be slow."

She took the mug and swallowed the medicine with water, handing the cup back to Ye Yujun, saying, "Mom, take a seat."

Ye Yujun said, "I’ll go cut some fruit for you to eat."

Chen Ningxi stopped her, "Mom, I can’t eat right now."

Ye Yujun saw her patting the bed beside her with her small hand and sat down with a helpless smile, "What’s the matter? Can’t stand it anymore?"

Besides going to the bathroom, Chen Ningxi hardly left this bed.

"I really can’t. This whole day of lying down makes me feel sore all over."

Ye Yujun said, "Hang in there, just three days."

Chen Ningxi said, "Luckily you’re here with me, or I’d be extremely bored."

Ye Yujun smiled, her eyes holding a hint of deep, unreadable emotion, "Do you have something to tell me?"

"..." This understanding, it’s just too comforting.

When with mom, there’s really no need for too many words.

Chen Ningxi giggled, "Did you notice?"

Ye Yujun had a matter-of-fact expression, "Tell me, what’s the matter?"

...
