President, the deceased lady has three more children

Chapter 458 What exactly are you hiding from?

“Feng Jiejie, what are you hiding from? I am me, and Fu Yunchuan is Fu Yunchuan. We are not the same. Moreover, Yunchuan is not the kind of person you think he is. He is just a little confused and muddled about some things.”

Gu Yihe leaned closer to Feng Jiejie, as if explaining for himself and also for Fu Yunchuan.

Given their relationship with Fu Yunchuan, they couldn't afford not to say a word at this moment.

Feng Jiejie, who was initially somewhat flustered and unsure how to describe her feelings, immediately calmed down after hearing Gu Yihe's words, and her angry gaze fell on Gu Yihe's face.

"Enough! I don't want to hear anything about Fu Yunchuan. I find it disgusting! Get out of here right now, or I'll have to call security to get you out!"

Gu Yihe knew why Feng Jiejie was angry.

“I know you’re angry, but I’ll say it again: I am me, and he is him. You can’t misunderstand or be prejudiced against me because of what he did with Nanxing.”

“I can’t bring myself to slander him, or to say I won’t speak up for him, because he’s my brother. Just like you and Nanxing, can you resist speaking up for Nanxing? No.”

"That's right, I can't, but I can make my own decisions. Now get out of here, or I'll have to call security to kick you out."

Gu Yihe sighed, knowing that he had messed things up again.

"Okay, I'm leaving now. Remember to eat these desserts."

Perhaps fearing that Feng Jiejie would refuse, he immediately turned and left after saying those words, not giving Feng Jiejie a chance to refuse the things he brought.

Feng Jiejie didn't insist that Gu Yihe take the things with him. After Gu Yihe left, she stared at the dessert box for a very long time.

Finally, she just sighed softly, which was especially noticeable in the empty and quiet office.

With a helpless, bitter sigh, she didn't know how to describe her current feelings.

I took the dessert box and opened it. Inside was a matcha mille-feuille and six pork floss buns.

How can I describe the taste of this matcha mille-feuille? It has the unique bitter and refreshing aroma of matcha. It's not bad at all; on the contrary, it tastes really good.

I just don't know if it's because she hasn't eaten anything made with matcha in a long time, but she found it too bitter, after all, it's a bitterness that can spread from her mouth to her heart.

She also tried one of the pork floss buns, and planned to take the rest back for her three children.

In the evening, Feng Jiejie had dinner at the Yun family's house. After dinner, Nanxing couldn't help but smile gently as she watched the three children enjoying the meat floss buns.

The three children love pork floss, including Ze Bao, who usually doesn't crave snacks.

"How come you have time to buy meat floss buns for the kids today? The party is coming up soon, aren't you usually quite busy?"

The design competition gala was also a contest for the spring/summer collection, and Xingchen was also in it. For Xingchen, this was a rare opportunity where no mistakes could be allowed, so Feng Jiejie had been contacting models to prepare for the event these past few days.

Even Nanxing has been cramming on knowledge about these gala shows online these past few days, since she and Feng Jiejie will be appearing together as company representatives.

Feng Jiejie paused for a moment, glanced in the direction of the children, and then spoke in a seemingly casual manner.

"Of course I didn't have time to buy it. Gu Yihe brought it to the company. Anyway, he already bought it, so let's eat it. It tastes so good, we can't waste it."

When Nanxing heard that it was Gu Yihe who sent it, she was suddenly startled.

Looking at Feng Jiejie's relaxed expression, she felt a little uneasy.

"Jie Jie, are you and him still in contact recently? Or is he still bothering you as always?"

Nanxing didn't know how to describe Gu Yihe's every move towards Feng Jiejie; the word "entanglement" would probably be appropriate.

“I’ve talked to him about it, but he’s like he won’t listen and always thinks he’s right. I’m just a nobody now, how can I stand up to him? If he really wants to do something, I don’t think I’ll be able to handle it,” Feng Jiejie said helplessly.

Nanxing looked at her, his expression hesitant and unsure what to say.

Before Nanxing could answer, Feng Jiejie glanced at her and smiled when she saw Nanxing's expression. She even tapped Nanxing's forehead with her finger.

"Alright, what's with that look? Just say what you want to say. Do you need to hesitate like this with me?"

"I know I don't need to hesitate with you, which is why I'm unsure whether I should say anything next."

"What can't you say? Hurry up and say it, I have to go back after you're done."

Are you not staying here tonight?

“We’re not staying here anymore. If we stay here and get photographed again, I don’t know how much time and money your brother and the others will have to spend to suppress it. Or are you not planning to reveal your identity yet? This can’t go on.”

"Let's wait and see. We'll announce it after this ball and show. I'm still a little worried about what Fu Yunchuan will do. I'm not sure what he's up to."

Feng Jiejie nudged Nanxing's shoulder with her own, offering words of comfort.

"It's okay, everyone's here. No matter what happens, there are so many people with you, there won't be any problems."

"I know." Nanxing wasn't as scared as before, but she was still unsure. She was just afraid of hurting the children.

"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's talk about Gu Yihe and your situation. What are your thoughts on that?"

She hadn't forgotten that she had wanted to ask Gu Yihe and Feng Jiejie about it.

Gu Yihe's every move was too obvious; anyone could understand what he wanted to do. But knowing was one thing, and worrying was another.

Feng Jiejie's expression froze again, just like in the restroom, and in the end, she could only shake her head truthfully.

"To be honest, I haven't thought about it much. It's impossible between us, and I don't trust him. You know, I've always been against marriage."

Nanxing believed what Feng Jiejie said, but she also knew clearly that Feng Jiejie had emotions that only she knew.

Feng Jiejie dared not speak of those emotions, nor dared she face them.

She wanted to offer some advice, to say something, but found herself completely at a loss for words, and what she could say. After all, her own romantic history was a mess, and she had no right to do so, nor was she afraid of giving Feng Jiejie a bad impression.

Whatever decision you make, I will support you.

"I know." Feng Jiejie smiled slightly. "You don't need to worry about me. I know what I'm doing and I know what to do."

“I know I’m not suited for a family like the Gu family. Even if Gu Yihe isn’t scheming against me right now, it’s just a momentary impulse. He’ll calm down after a while.”

"Alright, it's getting late, I have to go back now. I feel at ease with you here at the Yun family's place. We're all better off now than before, so don't be so sentimental."

Feng Jiejie pinched Nanxing's cheek, then turned and walked out to return to her apartment.

Nanxing watched her retreating figure, her nose suddenly stung with tears, and she followed after her.

“I’m going back to your place to stay today. It’s been so long since I’ve been back,” she said, standing next to Feng Jiejie.

No one knows how heartbroken she felt when she looked at Feng Jiejie's back. She could sense Feng Jiejie's loneliness just from her back view.

She's been here with the children lately, while Jie Jie is alone in the apartment. Although her mentor is with her, she knows Jie Jie is still lonely.

She just wanted to stay with Feng Jiejie tonight, and no amount of persuasion from others could change that.

Feng Jiejie was taken aback by Nanxing's decision at first, but after seeing the worry and heartache in Nanxing's eyes, she nodded gently. Some things didn't need to be said.

Yun's parents didn't ask any further questions, but simply told Nanxing and Feng Jiejie to have fun and that they would take good care of the children.

Although the three children didn't want to be separated from their mother, they didn't insist on going with her. They just said they would behave and that Nanxing didn't need to worry.

Yun's parents and three children stood in the yard watching Feng Jiejie's car leave.

Yunmu: "Her dad, I want to bring Jie Jie home too. That child is too lonely. Before, she could rely on our Xiao Bao, but now that Xiao Bao is home, Jie Jie will be so sad all by herself."

"And Xiaobao is also feeling bad. I saw it just now. When Jiejie said she wanted to go back alone, Xiaobao's eyes were red."

Women are generally more empathetic and compassionate towards other women, and they are also better able to understand the mutual appreciation between women.

Yun's father said, "It's not like we haven't let Jie Jie come back to live before, but she doesn't want to. She doesn't have a legal status living in our house, and she's probably embarrassed and afraid of causing us trouble."

"Then let's give her a proper status so she can stay in our family with peace of mind."

"What do you mean? You want to play matchmaker? Let's not even talk about whether our three children are willing or not, you have to ask Jie Jie if she's willing too. That's not fair to Jie Jie. She's such a good girl, she has plenty of choices." Yun's father said with a look of disapproval.

Mica rolled her eyes at him and said, somewhat speechlessly,

"When did I say I was going to play matchmaker? I'm not so narcissistic as to think your sons are that good."

Although she thought her sons and daughters were all wonderful, she also felt that Feng Jiejie was wonderful, with such a resilient character and such a hardworking life, she definitely deserved better.

Besides, she would never do something like matchmaking. She never forces her children to have relationships, whether they get married or have children.

Anyway, she now has two grandsons and one granddaughter, and most importantly, Xiao Bao has come home. She is very content.

"Then what do you mean? What else can we do?" Yun's father was a little embarrassed after being rebuked by Yun's mother, especially with the three children there. He could only awkwardly continue to ask.

“By adopting her as my daughter, I can live at home with peace of mind, and Xiao Bao can also feel at ease. The two sisters can also look after each other.”

"That works too. Why didn't I think of that earlier?" Yun's father suddenly realized.

"But will Grandma He agree? She's also Jie Jie's godmother."

Yunmu rolled her eyes at him again, "You really don't understand Grandma He. As long as it's for the good of the two children, she doesn't care."

"Besides, only a few of us know about their relationship. If no one tells anyone, who will know? Even if they do, what difference will it make? What does it matter?"

"I've already made up my mind. I'll talk to Xiaobao, Jiejie, and the old lady about it. When Xiaobao's identity is announced, I'll ask Jiejie to attend the family reunion banquet together."

"Sure, I'll talk to the children and the old lady about it later."

The three children were quite happy to hear this. They knew best how close their mother and godmother were, and they would love it if they could live together forever.

Nanxing and Feng Jiejie had no idea about Yun's parents' decision. They had just returned to the apartment parking lot when they ran into Gu Yihe bringing Grandma He back.

Feng Jiejie didn't expect to see Gu Yihe again so soon. Fortunately, she always knew what she wanted, so she didn't have any extra emotions and remained calm as if she had never seen Gu Yihe that afternoon.

Gu Yihe's gaze fell on Feng Jiejie's face, a gentle smile appeared on his lips, and he took the initiative to speak.

"Did you like the matcha mille-feuille and pork floss bun today? If you liked them, I'll have someone buy some more and send them to you tomorrow."

When Nanxing heard that there was also a matcha mille-feuille, she knew that her guess was true.

She glanced at Feng Jiejie, her heart filled with a deep sense of heartache.

Feng Jiejie was quite frank, "First of all, thank you. But I really don't know if it tastes good or not. Because I uphold the good virtue of not wasting food, I didn't throw it away. I took it back for the children to eat, and they said it was quite delicious. It should taste good."

Gu Yihe's smile faltered. He had thought that Feng Jiejie had at least tasted a little, but he hadn't expected that she had given it all to the children.

Grandma He looked up at Gu Yihe and sighed helplessly.

Her grandson.

"Alright, it's getting late, you should go back now." Old Mrs. He patted Gu Yihe's arm.

Gu Yihe's expression had returned to normal. "Grandma, it's not too late. Let me take you upstairs. I also have something I want to talk to Nanxing about."

"As for the matcha mille-feuille and pork floss buns, it's good for the kids to eat them. I'll have someone buy more tomorrow so you can all try them."

He said the following words while looking at Feng Jiejie, his eyes and tone filled with stubbornness.

Since Feng Jiejie wouldn't eat it, he would buy more every day. He didn't believe Feng Jiejie would never get enough, nor did he believe the three children would never get tired of eating it every day.

Feng Jiejie frowned, but didn't say anything when she saw the old lady there.

Nanxing: "What do you want to ask me?"

"It's about..."

"Alright." Old Mrs. He interrupted Gu Yihe unhappily, "Didn't I say this has nothing to do with her? She has no obligation to help you. If you continue like this, don't blame me for disowning you."

"Grandma, we just want her to go and see that we can protect her."

"I said no, and that's final. You'd better leave now." Old Mrs. He pushed Gu Yihe, clearly angry.
