Chapter 259: Chapter 257: Bastard!_1

The next day, as dawn barely broke, Mu Yingchen awoke once more from his sleep. He furrowed his brows tightly—a whole night of dreaming, all about that woman running off with the child—

No matter how he searched, he couldn’t find where they had gone.

He rubbed his temples helplessly; it was all because of the message that woman sent last night.

As soon as he returned to the villa yesterday, his mobile phone received a message. He opened it and immediately a smile graced his lips, but when he read the content of the message, he couldn’t smile at all.

That woman had actually sent him a short and blunt message: "Asshole! Go marry that white lotus!"

He knew right away that she must have realized the matter belatedly and, in a fit of anger, had tossed him that sentence.

In fact, he hadn’t taken the matter to heart, because he would never marry that white lotus. He had intended to discuss it with her since she’d surely be angry and question him about it, but since she hadn’t, he’d forgotten to explain it to her.

He tried calling back immediately, but the other party had already turned off their phone.

He was extremely gloomy, fearing that, in a moment of anger, that woman might really take the child and run away.

But by now it was late, and her phone was turned off. He felt it was not right to just go and knock on her door, as everyone had already gone to sleep.

So he could only toss and turn in bed, thinking about how to explain things to her, how to persuade her to marry him, dreaming about their future together—

And then he spent the whole night haunted by that unsettling dream!

Resolved, he got up, turned on the bedside lamp, and checked the time—it was barely past five.

He was going to exercise in the morning anyway, so he didn’t hesitate to get up, wash up, change into sportswear, and head out the door.

Then, running along the roadside, he found himself in front of Su Wanxia’s house. They lived not far apart; just one intersection away, five minutes by foot.

Checking his watch, it was now 6:10 am. Looking at the tightly closed front door, he hesitated for a long time before abandoning the idea of ringing the doorbell.

He came just to see her and casually explain the situation with the white lotus, otherwise, he would always feel uneasy.

It seemed that his sincerity had moved the heavens, as the tightly closed front door suddenly opened.

He looked up to see Su’s father and mother, one after the other, coming out from inside. Judging by their attire, they seemed to be heading out for their morning exercise as well.

Delighted, he quickened his pace to meet them.

"Dad, Mom—"

His ease in addressing them startled Su’s parents. It was like suddenly stumbling upon a landmine early in the morning, causing the couple to stand in shock for quite some time.

It wasn’t until Mu Yingchen approached them that they slowly came to their senses. Su’s mother had already been thoroughly called upon by Mu Yingchen the previous night, so seeing him again, she naturally suppressed her surprise and smiled, saying, "Oh, it’s Yingchen. What brings you here so early?"

"I was out for a morning run and thought I’d stop by to see—" Mu Yingchen said with a composed tone, though his face was still slightly unnatural.

It was only then that Su’s father recovered from his astonishment, suppressing the shock and discomfort in his heart.

"Yingchen exercises in the morning, too?" Su’s father asked with some surprise, knowing that most young people these days prefer to sleep in and usually work out in the gym. He hadn’t expected his future son-in-law to cultivate such a good habit.

"Yes, it’s become quite a habit—"

"Good, it’s a great habit!" Su’s father couldn’t help but praise him.

"Alright, Yingchen is here to see Wanxia and Shanshan. Let’s not keep him here chatting," Su’s mother said to Su’s father at the side.

With the reminder from Su’s mother, Su’s father laughed and said, "Alright, then you go see them. We’re going to head out for our morning exercise."

"Okay, I’ll go in first--"

"Mmm-hmm, go ahead."

After Mu Yingchen entered, Su’s father couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise while grabbing Su’s mother’s arm, "This kid Yingchen, how come he suddenly started calling us mom and dad? Gave me quite the start!"

"He called me mom last night too, gave me quite a scare. But Xiaxia didn’t object, so let’s not fuss over it--"

"Hehe, that’s true, we can’t control their affairs anyway..."

Once Mu Yingchen was inside, he lightened his footsteps and headed upstairs, his sneakers making little noise.

He arrived at the door of Su Wanxia’s bedroom, gently opened it, and as he lifted his eyes, he saw the two figures, one small and one large, on the bed.

His heart instantly softened, and he carefully closed the door before quietly walking over to the side of the bed where Su Wanxia lay.

He was sure he had never tiptoed as much in his life as he had in that moment.

Standing at the bedside, looking down at the peacefully sleeping figure, her skin was fine and white like a freshly peeled egg, her eyebrows beautifully curved with a touch of elegance, and those thick, long eyelashes resembled tiny fans resting quietly on her eyelids.

The delicate nose, the rosy lips, and the messy hair, all deeply engrained in his heart.

"Jerk--"

Suddenly, Su Wanxia wrinkled her brow and shifted, mumbling two unclear words.

Though it wasn’t very clear, from those two syllables and the shape of her mouth, Mu Yingchen was sure those were the words.

He couldn’t help but shake his head and smile wryly. This woman, even in her sleep, didn’t forget to curse him again!

Little did he know why Su Wanxia was cursing him even in her sleep.

Because at that moment, Su Wanxia was dreaming of a scene where he and Bai Yudie were getting married, with miles-long red carpet, colorful roses everywhere, thousands of guests, the handsome and gorgeous him, and the beautiful bride in a pristine white wedding dress. But that bride was not her.

She saw herself rushing madly into the wedding venue, then in front of everyone’s shocked gazes, she confronted him, "Are you really going to marry her?"

However, the answer she hoped for did not come. His steadfast reply was a firm "Yes!"

At that instant, she felt heartbroken, but after the sadness came overwhelming anger. Just a moment ago he was still saying "I love you" to her, and the next moment he was marrying someone else, and it was that Bai Yudie she detested. She couldn’t hold back the fury in her heart and yelled at him, "Jerk!"

That’s why Mu Yingchen heard her cursing him.

Mu Yingchen couldn’t resist reaching out to brush her hair gently aside from her face, but hardly had he moved his hand when the person on the bed abruptly opened her eyes, clear and bright like the stars, without a hint of the grogginess of just waking up.

He couldn’t help but smile, about to say "You’re awake," when the person on the bed, upon seeing him, grabbed his hand, and without a word, bit down hard on it!
