Chapter Seventy-Seven: Love Again
Gently covering Wen Ning with the quilt, Xu Jiangcheng walked out of her bedroom on tiptoe and came to the living room to answer her mother's call: "What's the matter?" β
"Can you come back? Your fiancΓ©e has been going out in the middle of the night lately, aren't you worried about her trouble? She's pregnant with a baby now. β
"Let her go."
Xu Jiangcheng opened his mouth coldly: "As long as she doesn't come to disturb me, whatever she wants." But just going out for a ride, what's there to be nervous about? β
"Jiang Cheng, how can you be so careless? I know she's not the person you want, but since you already have children, you have to think about them. β
"Alright."
Xu Jiangcheng snorted complainingly: "I know what to do." I'll be back when Wen Ning is a little better. However, at the moment she has a bad temper, I better stay here. β
"Then you can't give me the hot potato, can you? I have a lot of things to take care of. Do you know how tormented it is to serve her every day? β
Mother's words made Xu Jiangcheng a little dissatisfied: "Then can't you take out your mother-in-law's posture to suppress her?" β
"If only I could hold it down, every time I don't wait for me to talk about her, she will take you out and complain to me. Tell me, if this continues, Wen Ning may be cured by you, and your mother will be nervous. β
"Huh."
"You're embarrassed to laugh?"
Mother Xu shouted with some displeasure: "I'm your own mother, why aren't you worried about my situation at all?" β
"If you don't want to see her, find a reason to come to me."
"Forget it, I don't want to be your light bulb. Moreover, I really can't bear to see Wen Ning's girl like this now, I'm afraid that I will feel distressed when I see it. β
"Then don't say that again, I'll talk to her when I have time." Besides, apart from her own home, where do you think Zhao Jiayue can go? β
Mother Xu listened to her son's analysis and felt that it made sense: "Then I will leave her alone for the time being, and I will deal with this matter when you come back." By the way, buy some good supplements for Aning, this kid is too thin. β
"I know, Mom, you don't have to worry too much. Although A-Ning doesn't know me now, she still keeps saying my name. I think after a while, I'll be able to bring her to her senses. β
"That's for the best."
After ending the call with his mother, Xu Jiangcheng reached out and touched his chin, and when he was about to go upstairs, he saw Wen Ning standing at the top of the stairs in a daze, staring at him with his eyes.
"Aning, why are you standing here? Don't move, I'll come right over. β
In a panic, he went up to support Wen Ning, and Xu Jiangcheng's forehead was wet again: "Why are you awake?" It's only ten o'clock. β
"Can't sleep."
Wen Ning pouted and glanced at Xu Jiangcheng: "When did you let me leave here?" β
"What? Isn't it good here? Do you feel unhappy here? Is it not to your liking? β
"It's good to eat, but it's not the right person."
Wen Ning stretched out his hand and pinched Xu Jiangcheng's arm: "Zhou Zhe, I can't fall in love with you, you are dead." β
"Who said I want you to fall in love with me?"
Xu Jiangcheng pretended to be angry and pouted: "I'm just going to help you treat your pain." Come on, I'm not interested in you at all. β
"Really?"
Wen Ning looked at him meaningfully: "You really have no interest in me?" β
"I'm not interested in a dull girl like you, I like that kind of enthusiastic and unrestrained, so don't think about it."
"That's for the best. It's just that I can't live alone with you all the time, Zhou Zhe, hurry up and let Jiang Cheng come over. β
Reaching out to support Wen Ning's shoulder, Jiang Cheng patiently explained to her: "Don't worry, Jiang Cheng will come in a while, he asked me to tell you that if you don't cooperate with my treatment, you will have to break up." β
"What did you say?"
Wen Ning's eyes widened in astonishment: "He wants to break up with me?" β
"Yes, if you refuse to obey my command, he will break up with you and go to find Zhao Jiayue, whom you hate the most. Do you think that if you do get to that point, you can still make him change his mind? β
"I don't want it, I don't want it, I don't want it!"
Banging his head against Jiang Cheng hard, Wen Ning sobbed and hugged himself: "I don't want him to be with other women." β
"Ahem, ahem."
Because of Wen Ning's impact, Xu Jiangcheng felt that his chest was a little stuffy, and he coughed a few times unconsciously: "Then you can be quiet and cooperate with my work." β
"You're going to get me back quickly. Zhou Zhe, if you dare to lie to me, I will definitely bite you to death. β
"Grandma, how dare I lie to you?"
Rubbing his aching chest, Xu Jiangcheng waved his hand helplessly: "If I lie, I won't be killed by you with iron head skills." β
"You're laughing at me."
Looking at Wen Ning's shy appearance, Xu Jiangcheng grimaced at her: "It's just a joke for you, how about it?" β
"Actually, you look like a handsome guy, and if you pull off a layer of skin, you are the big bad wolf, the big bad wolf with bad intentions."
Listening to Wen Ning's matter-of-fact remarks, Xu Jiangcheng felt broken: Ning Ning, I'm a big bad wolf, aren't you a little sheep? However, now I see that you are more like a big bad wolf than me, so fierce, I really can't do anything about you.
"What time is it today?"
Suddenly hearing Wen Ning ask himself, Xu Jiangcheng was stunned for a moment: "Today, May 6th, what's wrong?" β
"Jiang Cheng's birthday is two days away, and I need to prepare some gifts for him. What kind of things would he like, you say? β
Hearing that she was going to give her a gift, Xu Jiangcheng's heart was very warm: "Why don't I accompany you to make a cake?" β
"However, Jiang Cheng doesn't like sweets very much."
"It's okay, if she knew that you made it yourself, she would be very happy and eat it all."
"Really?"
Wen Ning was moved by Xu Jiangcheng's words: "Then are there any ingredients for making here?" β
"There's everything here, if you want, start making it now."
"But I won't."
Wen Ning looked at Xu Jiangcheng with a sad face: "I never made these things myself, I used to go to the cake shop to buy them." Or might you buy it? β
"So how can it be more meaningful than making it yourself? Wen Ning, since you said you like Jiang Cheng, how about making him a birthday cake and making him happy once? β
"I'm afraid he won't like my gift. Zhao Jiayue has a lot of skills, and every time she will give him some novel gadgets. β
"Those things don't compare to the gifts you have prepared. Alright, hurry up and get started, I can't wait to get my hands on the gift with you. β
"Strange."
Wen Ning glanced at Xu Jiangcheng puzzled: "I didn't give you this gift, why are you so excited?" β
"Well, that's because I've never helped you with anything, and now I'm happy to hear you say that you have something to do."
"No need, you've helped me a lot from the past to now, and I'm really grateful to you."
"It's too early to say gratitude, if you really have the heart, let me help you make a cake together."
Dead, you think I don't know what you're thinking? You're just taking advantage of someone's danger and want me to make you something to eat at this time. Xu Jiangcheng, you are really insidious enough.
Wen Ning hated him from the bottom of his heart, but his face was very obedient: "Okay, then I want to thank you." β
However, after Xu Jiangcheng went to the kitchen, Wen Ning sneered: "You want to eat cake?" Well, I'll prepare you a cake that you will never forget. β
Because he was reluctant to work hard for Wen Ning, Xu Jiangcheng waited until the cake was ready before he went to her to come over to make chocolates and other things.
Looking at her slender fingers fiddling with the materials in front of her, Xu Jiangcheng was so stunned that he completely forgot that he was still holding a pudding to be cut in his hand.
"This one is too light, I want to add a little more sugar, do you have it here?"
Coming back to his senses, Xu Jiangcheng looked around and scratched his head a little embarrassed: "The sugar ran out just now, how about I go out and buy it?" β
"Yes, I'll wait for you here."
"Are you okay? Why don't I take you with me? β
"Nope."
Wen Ning pouted unhappily: "I still have to wait for Jiang Cheng here, if he can't see me when he comes, he will be angry." β
"Okay, Xu Jiangcheng nodded lightly: "You have to be careful alone, I'll be back soon." β
"Well, go ahead."
Watching Xu Jiangcheng drive away, Wen Ning immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed Ai Li's number: "Everything is OK, how are you over there?" β
"Tsk, Wen Ning, your Zhou Zhe is really unreliable, and he hooked up with Zhao Jiayue again after only a few days."
"That's fine, I expected that. Now I don't want to bother them for the time being, I have more important things to do. β
"Xu Jiangcheng didn't suspect you, did he?"
"He's a single-celled organism and isn't aware of my anomaly. Don't worry, I'll be careful. Okay, I've got something to do, so let's do it for now. β
"Well, bye-bye."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Ning immediately deleted the call history of his mobile phone, and then began to add mustard powder and a little peppercorn to the cake.
"Want to eat cake? Then give me a good meal, I won't be able to leave a little scum. Xu Jiangcheng, the contest between you and me has only officially begun now. β
However, although he wanted to treat him badly, Wen Ning still showed mercy to his subordinates in the end, and put a glass of warm water on the side, so that he didn't even have water to rinse his mouth for a while.
"Actually, he's not a heinous person, so just just teach him a so-so lesson, if it's too much, it might scare him away."
seems to be a reasonable explanation, but in fact, Wen Ning understands that this is all a manifestation of his soft-heartedness, and he can't be ruthless to him.
