Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 550: April 19, do you have a strange man in your room?
Chapter 550: April 19, do you have a strange man in your room?
Xiaofeng listened to Yan Junmei’s somewhat harsh words, her eyes flickered.
As a mother, she could understand Yan Junmei.
Any mother watching her son lying injured in bed couldn’t stay calm.
"Mom, Yecheng doesn’t need me to care for him at home all day, we still have the servants." Xiaofeng picked up Dabao, this little cute, day by day, eats then sleeps, sleeps then eats, yet never seems to get chubby.
"Listen to what you’re saying." Hearing Xiaofeng’s words, Yan Junmei was furious, "Yecheng is your husband, and given his condition, you as his wife should naturally take full responsibility for his care. What are you saying now? You don’t want to take care of Yecheng anymore, do you? Xiaofeng, let me tell you, until our Yecheng is better, I definitely won’t agree to you marrying anyone else; give up on that idea."
"Mom, I never said I wanted to marry someone else." Xiaofeng felt helpless, "Don’t worry, I will take good care of Yecheng. Mom, I believe that one day Yecheng will stand by our side again."
He had already stood up, but they still had to keep it from Yan Junmei, alas.
"You talk a good talk." Yan Junmei suddenly burst into tears, inexplicably emotional, "He’s my only son, what would I do if something truly happened to him?"
"Mom, he will wake up, you have to believe me," Xiaofeng said, not knowing how else to comfort her as she looked at Yan Junmei like this.
"Do you really believe he will wake up?" Yan Junmei looked at Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng nodded.
"Alright, I’ll believe you this time." Yan Junmei said no more, silently turning to leave.
Yan Junmei’s retreating figure was full of pain; any mother whose son was lying in bed like that couldn’t remain indifferent.
Xiaofeng kissed Dabao, "Gu Dabao, why don’t you tell your grandma that your dad will definitely wake up?"
Gu Dabao thought about using his hand to wipe his drool-covered face, but decided against it and just calmly said, "Daddy."
Yan Junmei, hearing Gu Dabao speak, quickly approached him, a face full of joy, "Dabao, did you just call for Daddy?"
Dabao had to repeat, "Daddy."
"Mom, Dabao really just called for Daddy."
"Quick, take Dabao and Xiaobao to Yecheng’s bedside, let Yecheng listen to their cries. If Yecheng hears them, maybe he will wake up."
The voices of boy and girl twins are the most beautiful sounds in the world; if Yecheng hears their tender calling, maybe he will wake up.
"Daddy," Gu Xiaobao called out enthusiastically.
"Daddy," Gu Dabao’s voice, was much calmer.
Xiaofeng: "...".
Someone who had just come from outside and was hiding in the shadows, unable to reveal himself: "...".
The babies’ repeated cries of daddy were melting his heart.
...
That evening, as Xiaofeng had just lay down, she heard noises outside the window. As she rose to look, she saw Ye Cheng leap from outside into the room.
Their eyes met, one with a natural expression, the other quite awkward.
"Back already." Xiaofeng yawned, exhausted from the day, she indeed was sleepy.
Ye Cheng just looked at her.
Presently, she was wearing loose pajamas adorned with a few simple patterns, simple and refreshing.
Today, he wasn’t dressed up as the Dragon King, but just himself, genuine.
But seeing him return, her expression seemed too unaffected.
Xiaofeng glanced at him, somewhat puzzled, "Why stand there dumbly? You don’t think you’ve come to the wrong place, do you? This is your home; you can come back whenever you want, there’s nothing so surprising about it."
This is the Gu family home, he is her man; his return was expected after all. Surely, she didn’t need to mount a welcoming ceremony.
Ye Cheng said nothing but entered the bathroom.
He had been busy outside all day and was drenched in sweat, a shower was necessary.
No sooner had Ye Cheng entered than Yan Junmei knocked on Xiaofeng’s door, holding Xiaobao with a sheepish expression, "Well, Xiaobao wants his mom and won’t sleep with me."
Xiaofeng took Xiaobao, thinking to herself that Xiaobao really knew how to pick his timing. Was he coming over to sabotage his dad?
Yan Junmei genuinely cherished Erbao and wanted to keep him close even at night.
"Mom, it’s late, you should get some sleep with Dabao." Xiaofeng didn’t let Yan Junmei in, but smiled at her.
Yan Junmei heard the sound of water in the bathroom, her face changed abruptly, "Why is there someone in your room?"
She had taken both children away, and even if she hadn’t, the housemaid would have stayed with them to sleep, so Su Xiaofeng should have been sleeping alone. Why would there be someone in her room?
Thinking of a possibility, Yan Junmei stormed in, her gaze upon Xiaofeng almost devoured her, "Is there a man in your room?"
This time, this place, Yan Junmei could not help but think too much.
Xiaofeng pressed her forehead, Ye Cheng, too, why didn’t he return earlier or later but had to return today of all days.
Look what a scene this had caused, even bringing up the notion of a man.
"Mom, maybe you heard wrong, what sound could there be?" Xiaofeng raised her voice slightly, "I was just about to run water for a bath, aren’t you here before I even got in?"
Yan Junmei looked at Xiaofeng who clearly seemed like she had taken a bath, and then at the window behind her, which was wide open, clearly someone had entered it.
She scoffed coldly, "Su Xiaofeng, if you dare keep a man under the Gu Family’s roof, right under Gu Yecheng’s watch, I won’t spare you."
Saying this, she paid no heed to Su Xiaofeng and dashed directly toward the bathroom.
She had to see for herself.
Charging over fiercely, to see Ye Cheng casually dressed in pajamas, wiping his wet hair as he came out, she was stunned.
Yecheng? It was Yecheng.
Ye Cheng had only lost his memory for a bit over a year, and of course, he recognized Yan Junmei; he smiled at Yan Junmei, showing his white teeth, "Mom, it’s so late, and you haven’t slept yet?"
"Yecheng, you reckless child, what exactly is going on here?" Yan Junmei hugged him at once, truly feeling the relief that her son had woken up.
Xiaofeng closed the door and sat down with Xiaobao on the side.
"I’ve been awake for a while, but I wanted to investigate some matters privately, so I didn’t let Grandpa announce it publicly."
"You almost scared me to death. I am your mom, not a stranger. Couldn’t you at least tell me?" Yan Junmei recalled these events, her heart aching again.
"Mom, you’re too expressive with your emotions, it wasn’t easy for me either, right?"
If he hadn’t kept it from his mom, how could he and Xiaofeng stage their act?
"So, the person next door was... fake?" Yan Junmei thought of a possibility and asked softly.
Ye Cheng nodded.
Yan Junmei looked at Xiaofeng sitting calmly beside them; so, she had known all along, and that’s why she said today that Yecheng would wake up sooner or later.
"It’s good you’ve woken up." Yan Junmei surveyed him from front to back, top to bottom, "You naughty boy, you almost scared your mother to death. Do you know that because of you, I haven’t been able to sleep properly for nights? Now here you are, scaring us like this, you wicked child, how could you do this?"
Ye Cheng embraced her, "Mom, I’m sorry for making it hard on you."
"Are you really alright?" That injury had been so severe, she almost died of fright.
"I have to thank your daughter-in-law for that; if it wasn’t for her finding a Divine Medicine from the family, it might have saved my life, and I could truly have died," Ye Cheng was aware of the Blood Vine matter.
"Xiaofeng, I’m sorry, I misunderstood you before, but you should have reminded me about Yecheng waking up earlier."
"Mom, he doesn’t remember me yet, and I’m also heartbroken," Xiaofeng placed Xiaobao on the bed, "Besides, there are so many people watching our family from outside. Some plays must be performed real enough for those outside to see."
"We’ll settle this matter later." Yan Junmei, her face full of joy, bent down to pick up Xiaobao, "My little princess, you will sleep with grandma tonight. Let’s go, sleep with grandma, grandma will make you some milk to drink."
Xiaobao, sucking on his finger, seemed to agree.
Ye Cheng glanced at his daughter, dressed in pink, longing for a hug. Before he could speak, Yan Junmei had already carried the child away.
Xiaofeng watched his outstretched hand and covered her mouth to suppress a light laugh.
Ye Cheng dropped his hand, pretending to be casual, "She’s very cute."
If it weren’t for hearing their voices, he might not have come here tonight.
"Are you going to sleep here, or go back to sleep?" Xiaofeng made the bed, "If you’re staying here, it’s about time to sleep. If you’re not staying, you should be going. I’m tired, I just want to hit the bed."
Standing on the floor like an idiot for a long time, was he going to sleep or not? //
Ye Cheng looked at the bed before him and suddenly felt constrained.
That woman, could she not speak so bluntly?
But he was her man, and now that he was home, there was no reason to leave.
His lips curved slightly, "Move over a bit, from now on, I’ll sleep at home every night."
