"Look at you, you don't care about anything for Jingjing's sake. You left your mom at a loss for words over how to talk to you. Not to mention Jingjing isn't that petty of a person," Yun Yu Qing said helplessly to her daughter. She then asked An Nuan again, "Right? Jingjing."
"If I had known that sister-in-law three couldn't eat mushrooms, I wouldn't have helped her get food," Ye Jingjing quickly said.
She naturally knew in her heart that An Nuan had done it on purpose.
An Nuan had clearly put the matsutake mushroom right in front of her on purpose, deliberately wanting her to pick it to feed her.
This woman had left her suppressing belly full of anger today, but there was no way for her to vent it out.
Once she vented, it would be her own fault, and An Nuan would become the victim again.
She really didn't expect An Nuan to be so clever.
This was the first time she had met her match.
"It's nothing, just a minor allergy. Mom, don't worry too much either, and Jingjing, don't feel guilty. I'm just really happy you could come home, and I hope you come often. With just me and Huai living here, it feels very lonely. I can't wait for you guys to come liven things up," An Nuan said, clearly wanting to brush past this little embarrassment.
She was obviously trying to liven up the atmosphere and not make Jingjing feel bad.
Yun Yu Qing was very gratified.
Having affirmed such a good daughter-in-law, she smiled and said, "Alright, in the future when I have time I'll bring Jingjing over more often. Actually, the doctor also recommended that with Jingjing's health condition, she should move around more under safe conditions. It's perfect now that there's a place, so I'll bring her over to play more."
"Great," An Nuan readily agreed.
She looked overjoyed.
Ye Jingjing watched with gritted teeth, really wanting to strangle this woman.
Her acting was even better than hers.
Seeing Ye Jingjing enduring to the point she was almost twisted up, the smile at the corner of An Nuan's mouth became even more obvious.
To deal with a scheming girl, you have to take the route of a scheming girl to leave that scheming girl with no path forward!
Sure enough.
After lunch, Ye Jingjing wanted to leave.
She probably knew that staying here wouldn't benefit her at all, and instead made An Nuan even more favored by her mom.
Yun Yu Qing knew her daughter didn't like to stay outside for too long, so she didn't think much of it. Not long after lunch she said she would leave with her.
Of course, An Nuan tried her best to keep them.
She displayed not wanting to inconvenience them, while also showing how much she hoped they would stay a little longer.
In short, she made Yun Yu Qing extremely satisfied.
"Then I won't make it hard for mom and my sister to stay," An Nuan said reluctantly.
"Mom and your sister don't work anyway, so when they have time they can come over more. I figure that after you and Huai have a baby, you can move back to the villa to live, and mom can also help look after your kids," Yun Yu Qing compromised with a suggestion.
An Nuan became somewhat bashfully shy again.
Before she could speak, Ye Jinghuai said, "Her parents also want to take care of the children."
"..." Yun Yu Qing was a little unhappy.
"An Nuan's parents only have one daughter. I took away their daughter, I can't take away their granddaughter too, right? So I plan on after the baby is born to have An Nuan's parents take care of it first," Ye Jinghuai said very seriously.
As if An Nuan was already pregnant.
"Then have two," Yun Yu Qing said, unable to argue with her son and had to compromise.
"That works too," Ye Jinghuai nodded.
An Nuan was really speechless.
Did she say she was giving birth?!
When did she say she wanted kids?
Hearing her own son say he wanted kids, Yun Yu Qing was naturally overjoyed. She nagged them with a few more reminders before saying, "Then we'll go back now."
"Mom, wait a moment," An Nuan quickly ran toward the backyard, and very soon came back hugging two wrapped bouquets of fresh flowers.
Yun Yu Qing was a little confused.
"I brought Jingjing to the indoor garden in the backyard just now. Seeing her quite like them, I had Uncle Zhong hurriedly wrap up two bouquets to give to mom and my sister."
"An Nuan, you're really so thoughtful," Yun Yu Qing happily took them over.
What woman doesn't like flowers?
Besides Ye Jingjing.
She couldn't keep her face expressionless.
Yet she still had no choice but to accept them.
"I'll walk with you to the door," An Nuan said.
"Great great," Yun Yu Qing agreed.
An Nuan and Ye Jinghuai escorted Yun Yu Qing and Ye Jingjing to the sedan car.
They waved goodbye to each other.
As the sedan car disappeared completely from An Nuan's sight.
Only then did An Nuan let out a huge sigh of relief.
She had finally seen off this annoying Buddha Ye Jingjing safe and sound.
"Not bad!" Ye Jinghuai praised into her ear.
An Nuan gave Ye Jinghuai a sideways glance.
This man who only stood by watching.
He seemed accommodating on the outside.
Yet when facing his own family, this guy was clearly protecting his own as well.
"Does your sister have a mental illness? Do you know that?" An Nuan couldn't help but retort.
"Otherwise how would she have grown up taking medicine," Ye Jinghuai had a completely candid face.
"..."
What she meant by mental illness was a psychological disorder.
Liking her own brother was not just being sick, it was being extremely sick!
"Go back to the room," Ye Jinghuai stretched out his long arm and pulled An Nuan into his embrace in one move
An Nuan wanted to struggle free but decided to give up.
After all, in the end it would still go as Ye Jinghuai wished, might as well not waste energy.
"Perfect for an afternoon nap," Ye Jinghuai murmured.
An Nuan's body was clearly somewhat stiff.
She felt that if she didn't give her mind and body to Ye Jinghuai, she wouldn't make it out of this pit.
So she went along stiffly with Ye Jinghuai back to the room.
"I'll wash up," An Nuan suggested.
Ye Jinghuai deeply inhaled. He was probably enduring.
He said, "You wash up in this room, I'll go wash up in the next room, hurry up!"
"..." Hurry your sister!
Is there a need to be in such a rush?!
The next second she saw Ye Jinghuai walk straight out of the room.
Clearly his arm was still in a cast, can't he wait a couple days?!
Still feeling apprehensive, An Nuan went into the bathroom to shower.
After getting out of the shower.
Ye Jinghuai was already sitting on the bed waiting for her.
Seeing her walk out in a bathrobe, his gaze was completely fixed.
That look in his eyes.
An Nuan felt she was completely unable to handle it.
His gaze was like a wolf spotting prey, his eyes seeming to glow green!
"Come here," Ye Jinghuai called to her.
Unable to hide the excitement in his voice.
An Nuan walked over.
Ye Jinghuai's Adam's apple bobbed up and down.
His eyes looked over An Nuan's bathrobe-clad body, his long, slender fingers moved closer to the sash she had tied up, just about to untie the sash—
"Ye Jinghuai, I'm on my period," An Nuan said.
"..."
Ye Jinghuai only felt a buzzing sound in his head.
A sudden clap of thunder on a clear day!
He looked at An Nuan, stunned.
His fingers froze stiffly at her sash.
The expression on his face was truly hard to describe, rendering him speechless.
An Nuan felt...this guy seemed to be suffering from excessive setbacks.
But it wasn't on purpose for her.
The weather dictates when it rains just like a bride's wedding day, how could she control and delay it?!
What was she to do?!
Then she heard Ye Jinghuai ask, "How many days?"
What?! How many days?!!
"Usually 7 days for my period," An Nuan answered.
7 days.
168 hours.
10,080 minutes...
Forget it.
Let him explode from holding it in!
