Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 860 - 777: Is That Really Necessary?
"Sister-in-law! I..." Leng Ning cursed herself for speaking without thinking clearly. She looked at Li Si in frustration. "Sigh! If you put it that way, then I will gladly accept! But really, don’t feel guilty. If you truly see me as a sister, then none of us are allowed to mention it again!"
"Alright! I’ll listen to little sister!"
"That’s more like it!"
Li Si was all smiles. She truly treated Leng Ning as her own sister, cherishing her not only for the instructions Leng Mochen gave before his passing but also because Leng Ning really got along well with her...
When they returned home, Li Si brought up Leng Shuang with Leng Mochen, "You better find someone to keep an eye on her. If she doesn’t stir up trouble, all the better.
But if she’s intent on causing chaos, we can’t easily let her off this time!
We can’t let her off as easily as we did last time; she needs to learn a lesson!"
Li Si still held a grudge for what Leng Shuang did back when she married him.
Seeing her serious expression, Leng Mochen couldn’t help but pull her into his arms, "You’re absolutely right, my dear! We’ll do everything as you wish. But, does she really have the guts to start trouble again?"
He didn’t take Leng Shuang too seriously. Her family had already given her a lesson last time. Could she really be foolish enough to stir up more trouble?
If she does, then it would truly be...
Li Si snuggled against his strong arm and said, "You never know! Sometimes women act impulsively and their IQ plummets! Especially Leng Shuang, she even threw a wine bottle at Shasha over a few words back then. Do you think she could change just like that?
I don’t believe it, even if you guys do. Besides, because of me, Xiao Ning’s engagement party wasn’t done well. Her wedding with Yichen can’t go wrong either. Consider it my way of compensating her!"
Leng Mochen’s eyes sparkled slightly. He held her tighter and praised, "Not bad! You’ve really got a way with words now, quite convincing!" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Li Si broke free from his embrace and shook her head dramatically, facing him, "Of course! Look at the people I’m around! With Mr. Leng’s careful guidance, I can’t be too far off, right?"
They say you learn from those around you, and I’ve had my ears filled and eyes trained!
This habitually made Leng Mochen flick her nose, "That was a good compliment! Ten points for you!"
"Get lost!" Li Si grabbed his mischievous hand, "Alright, enough playing! Seriously, do you agree with what I said?"
Leng Mochen intertwined his fingers with hers, "I mostly agree with you, but I have one suggestion!"
Li Si glanced at him proudly, "What suggestion?"
Leng Mochen softly murmured as he kissed her pink earlobe, "Could you not address Jin Yichen so intimately? It makes me uncomfortable!"
Li Si burst out laughing, "Why do I smell a strong scent of jealousy? So what should I call Yichen then? Should I address him by his full name Jin Yichen, or call him Xiao Jin or brother-in-law?"
Leng Mochen firmly suggested, "Xiao Jin or brother-in-law is fine, just try not to call him Yichen! Notice how you call me Mochen outside, and both end in ’chen,’ so it always feels a bit off when you call him Yichen!"
Li Si was amused beyond words, "Come on, are you serious? It’s just a name!"
After all, outside she calls him Mochen, while at home it’s always hubby! What’s there to be concerned about?
"Very serious!" Leng Mochen’s earnest expression made Li Si laugh uncontrollably.
But alas, laughter can invite trouble!
"Haha...mm..." No amount of pounding on his chest could stop him. He captured that enticing little mouth opened by laughter, and didn’t let go for a long time...
...
Meanwhile, Leng Shuang, who was mentioned by several people, was receiving instructions from her mother.
Leng Shuang’s mother watched her indifferent daughter on the sofa with concern, "Daughter, it’s not that I love to nag, but this is really important! You must remember that you’re back because of Leng Ning’s wedding.
So, on the wedding day, just quietly attend the banquet and don’t get involved in anything else. If you behave well, maybe your grandpa won’t force you to go abroad again! Okay?"
Leng Shuang impatiently waved her hand, "I know, Mom! You’ve said that more than five times since I got back, right? I’m not a kid who doesn’t know the importance between right and wrong. Let Leng Ning have her wedding; I just won’t bother with her!"
Leng Shuang’s mother nodded, but then thought again it might not suffice, "Daughter, not acknowledging Leng Ning isn’t good either. How about we follow the norm? Say a few blessing words, make it appear we’re on good terms!
It’s not just about grandpa and dad, it’s for your own sake too, show a good front!
People attending the wedding are from our circle, you might meet someone eye-catching! Although you’re still young, you should start planning ahead!"
Leng Shuang got fed up with the nagging, suddenly stood up, and yelled at her mother, "Mom! Why are you so long-winded? What exactly do you want me to do? One thing, then another! I’m going crazy! I’m leaving!"
Leng Shuang’s mother hurriedly stood up and took two steps to catch up, "Where are you going?"
"I’ve been away for so long, can’t I go out and chat with friends?" Leng Shuang turned to say and left as if she feared her mother would stop her.
Leng Shuang’s mother looked at her daughter’s back with a sigh. Such a troublesome child, only hoping she’ll wise up a bit...
Once out, Leng Shuang acted like a runaway horse, heading to the bar for a wild night with friends.
...
The day before Leng Ning’s wedding, the Leng Family was bustling. Not only were the Leng relatives there, but Wang Meishu and Ouyang Zhenglin also arrived early.
It’s surely different, giving a daughter away compared to welcoming a daughter-in-law.
On the surface, Ouyang Yan and Leng Qiankai were all smiles, but whenever they had a moment to exchange glances, they saw deep reluctance in each other’s eyes.
Leng Qiankai even called Leng Ning, who was chatting and laughing with Li Si and the others, to the study for a talk.
Seeing her father’s expression, Leng Ning felt something, and promptly went up to him like a dutiful daughter.
"Dad! Don’t be too sad! Even if I’m married, I’ll always be your and mom’s daughter. Besides, we’re not far apart, I’ll come back every week with Yichen to have dinner with you both, okay?"
Originally, Leng Qiankai had a lot to say, but looking at the happily beaming Leng Ning, he sighed inwardly, and in the end, his words turned into, "Alright! But you must keep your word! You know, sometimes dad gets busy with work and really doesn’t have too much time to spend with your mom, so as our little sweetheart, you have to step up!"
