"Hmm, she’ll be at home tomorrow, and Jingxi too!"

"Jingxi?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Zhang Minyi only knew about Ye Xinluo being Linlin’s mother but wasn’t aware of the little guy’s situation.

Ling Haoyu sat across and explained, "Xinluo and Beichen Rui’s son, he’s five years old this year, a very sensible little guy!"

"Five years old?"

Doesn’t that mean she got pregnant at 19?

Wasn’t she supposed to be in school at that age? How did she become a mom?

"Yeah, as I understand it, Linlin had been drinking at the time, and then, fearing that Beichen Rui would come knocking, she fled to America, met Shaoyu, and with Shaoyu’s help, gave birth to the child and named him Jingxi."

The name "Jingxi," how should I put it, leans more towards a girl’s name. Perhaps Ye Xinluo intends to raise him as a daughter.

Because of this question, she had specifically asked Beichen Rui about it.

He replied, "I asked Xinluo why she gave our son such a name, and she said she hopes our son will grow up to be a warm-hearted man, not cold and detached like his father!"

When he said this, Beichen Rui’s face looked awfully displeased.

It can be seen that when Beichen Rui and Ye Xinluo first met, they left a "cold-hearted," "not a warm man" impression on their family!

Though I’m not sure how Xinluo, after drinking, came to this conclusion, the impression couldn’t have been great!

No wonder she decided to run off pregnant!

...

In the afternoon the next day, Ye Xinluo, as usual, intended to go to her room to nap, but Beichen Rui surprisingly pulled her to listen to prenatal music.

Yawning a few times in a row, she complained, "What’s with you today? I’m so sleepy now. Can we listen to the prenatal music another time? I want to sleep, please!"

Beichen Rui raised an eyebrow; did this woman think he was a child to be coaxed?

"Sleeping all the time isn’t good for your health. Let’s make an exception today, skip the nap, and maybe watch some TV and listen to music."

"No!"

Ye Xinluo refused. She had gotten into this habit; she feels out of sorts if she doesn’t nap for a day, okay?

Jingxi sat nearby holding a phone. Even though he didn’t understand what his dad was up to, he chimed in supportively, "Mommy, look how nice the weather is. Don’t be a lazy bug sleeping all the time! Didn’t you mention last time about putting on weight? If you keep sleeping like this, by the time little sister is born, you’ll turn into a big penguin!"

He nodded emphatically, earning a sharp look from Ye Xinluo.

Thick-skinned, he chuckled and tugged at Ye Xinluo’s arm, saying, "Mommy, don’t look at me like that. It scares me. Look how cute I am; can you really glare at me?"

Ye Xinluo: "......"

Isn’t it turning out to be her fault now?

Staring at the almost clingy son, Beichen Rui frowned, pushed him aside, and handed a peeled grape to Ye Xinluo’s mouth.

Jingxi was very dissatisfied with this; dad was burning the bridge after crossing it, now that mommy’s appeased, he doesn’t need a teammate!

Clearly, he contributed too!

The latter simply raised an eyebrow, as if to say, "What can you do about it?"

Fuming, he cast a sideways glance, pretending his dad didn’t exist, and continued to look at his phone!

Around three o’clock, Tong Ma came over, stood by Beichen Rui, and whispered something.

Beichen Rui’s expression changed slightly, and he replied calmly, "Invite them in."

"Who is it?" Ye Xinluo asked.

"Mr. Ling and his mother."

Ye Xinluo was puzzled and was just about to ask why his mother had returned to Z City when Beichen Rui spoke first.
