The Tycoon's Little Darling: Uncle, you're going to spoil me rotten!

Chapter 331 Craving Warmth

Old Master Jiang's attention was entirely focused on the fact that Nuanwa was being bullied at school. "Hmph! If it weren't for her pregnancy, Nuanwa would have torn their mouths apart long ago. They all don't know how formidable my daughter-in-law is. If we really bullied Nuanwa, would she still be willing to carry a child of the Jiang family?"

Old Jiang grew angrier and angrier. He said, "Butler, go and call Ai Huachen down."

A short while later, Wei Aihua also appeared in the living room.

Next up were Jiang Chenyu and his wife.

Old Jiang announced: "From now on, the three of us will take turns going to Nuanwazi's school to accompany her!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Nuannuan thought she was going to accompany her to school.

She immediately stopped them, saying, "No, absolutely not my husband can go."

After Gu Nuannuan finished speaking, Jiang Momo and Jiangsu nodded at the same time, which was rare for them.

This was the first time the trio had formed such a united front.

Jiang Momo said, "Dad, my second brother earns money, he can't go."

Jiangsu also said, "My uncle's presence would affect our studies; he cannot appear."

Old Jiang was puzzled. "Why? Didn't he go today?"

Gu Nuannuan thought about how she had no freedom at all since her husband left. She couldn't go to the convenience store, she couldn't use her phone, and even when she tried to nap, her cheeks would be pinched.

She leaned close to Old Jiang's ear and whispered something to him.

Jiang Chenyu could guess what his wife had said to his father, what else could it be but not letting her eat ice cream today?

Sure enough, when Old Jiang heard that his daughter-in-law wanted to buy him food, his son wouldn't let him.

He slammed his fist on the table in anger, “Jiang Chenyu is not allowed to go. Only Ai Hua and I will go.”

Wei Aihua also learned the whole story. She calmly smiled and said, "Dad, let's not get involved. Going once in a while is fine, but going every day will affect the children's studies."

Gu Nuannuan agreed with her sister-in-law, "That's right, Dad. You can pick us up from school occasionally. If you sit in the classroom with us every day, your old bones just can't take it. My husband's back is still aching today. If you pick us up, we won't miss out on any of the good food, drinks, or fun activities."

Old Jiang: "..." It does seem to make some sense.

“Then let’s listen to Nuanwa. We’ll pick them up from school whenever we have time. Aihua will go too, so people won’t say that our sisters-in-law and brothers are not getting along, and we won’t be stirred up by others.”

Previously, Gao Rou'er had stirred up discord within the family, which infuriated Old Master Jiang. On the surface, he didn't seem to be targeting Gao Rou'er, but only Gao Rou'er knew what had happened to her.

Old Jiang is not a weak old man who would let others tease him without fighting back.

"By the way, Warm Baby, you can't eat ice cream while you're pregnant, right?"

Gu Nuannuan shook her head, "The doctor didn't say I couldn't eat it."

Old Jiang glanced at his silent son, then at his seemingly obedient daughter-in-law beside him, and asked, "Your husband said you can't eat it, right?"

Warmly nodded.

"Then you'd better not eat it, so as not to offend him."

He now controls the family finances, so there's no benefit in offending him.

Nuan nodded again. "I understand that much."

Jiang Chenyu sat to the side the whole time, listening to his wife and father complain about his domineering ways. Later, Mayor Jiang returned. He went back to the bedroom and heard his wife recounting his younger brother's actions during the day. He smiled and said to his wife, "He doesn't say a word, but he's actually the most doting. We've been urging him to get married for years, but he just wouldn't go. But when Nuannuan came, his eyes followed her every step of the way. The moment Nuannuan called him 'husband,' he'd give his life for her."

Wei Aihua also laughed and said, "Nuannuan is completely under Chen Yu's thumb. Don't let her usual loud and boisterous little tiger appearance fool you; she becomes a meek cat in front of Chen Yu."

"Isn't this how all couples live their lives?"

In the bedroom not far away, Gu Nuannuan, like a lazy cat, was nestled next to her husband on the big bed. She glanced at the book her husband was finally almost finished reading, then propped her legs up on his lap. "Honey, how does it feel to sit next to me today?"

“I feel bad.”

Gu Nuannuan looked up at her husband's face, her brows furrowing slightly. "Is this all you feel? I feel several! Let me count them for you." Gu Nuannuan counted on her fingers, "Moved, wronged, sad, and I love you even more. I have four kinds."

Jiang Chenyu wrapped his arm around Gu Nuannuan's head, rubbing her little face with his fingers, teasing her like a kitten.

His eyes were fixed on the contents of the book, multitasking.

Gu Nuannuan looked up at her husband, who wasn't responding, then turned to her side and lay down beside him, falling asleep almost immediately.

Twenty minutes later, Jiang Chenyu looked down and realized that his wife, who had been talking to him, had fallen asleep.

He closed the book, hugged his wife, straightened her body, covered her with the blanket, and then Jiang Chenyu got up and went to the study to finish his work from the day.

The next day, the atmosphere at school completely changed. During class, no one at the back of the classroom was talking about Gu Nuannuan being pregnant and out of favor anymore. Instead, they were all focused on the fact that President Jiang had been there all day the day before.

With Jiang Chenyu gone, the trio had much more freedom after class.

Jiang Momo took a bite of the mochi and looked at her sister who seemed a little hungry. "Nuan'er, why don't you lick it?" Gu Nuannuan: "...I'll just lick it once."

The two sisters crept closer together, and Jiang Momo handed the mochi to Gu Nuannuan, saying, "Tsk tsk, look how pitiful you are while you're pregnant, it's just like my second brother is abusing you."

Gu Nuannuan took a small bite, the coolness on her tongue and teeth sending a shiver through her body. She then handed the mochi to Jiang Momo, saying with a mournful face, "One bite and I can't resist anymore."

Jiang Momo ate the rest of the mochi in one big bite, mumbling, "It's okay, I don't want to eat it if you don't watch me eat it."

After they finished eating, Jiang Momo led her quickly back to the classroom.

When the two returned from Jiangsu, they said, "Sister Mo, my phone rang while you were gone."

Jiang Momo walked over, picked it up and glanced at it. There was no phone number saved in her contacts. She said, "I guess it's someone selling houses."

As a result, the number called again a short while later.

Jiang Momo answered the call and held it to her ear, saying, "I won't buy a house, I won't buy insurance, and I won't change the plan if the phone number doesn't belong to me."

Luo Ruian paused for a moment, then laughed, "Little Mo, I'm Luo Ruian."

Jiang Momo suddenly realized, "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought they were salespeople."

Luo Rui'an was charmed by Jiang Momo's words and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm in school."

Did I bother you?

Jiang Momo politely replied, "No, is there something you need?"

"I'm asking if you have time. I'd like to invite you to see a play."

Jiang Momo recalled the stage, the art she couldn't appreciate, and how she herself would snore as soon as she entered. She blinked. "No time. Brother Luo, I have to go to class, I have to hang up now." With that, Jiang Momo hung up the phone.

She put down her phone and complained to her family, "Someone invited me to a play, but I think he just wants to hear me snore."

Gu Nuannuan grasped the essence of the matter: "Who is he?"

Jiangsu: "Is Sister Mo here in spring?"

It was finally Gu Nuannuan's turn to turn things around, and she and Jiangsu were watching the show together.

Jiang Momo gave the two of them a general overview of Luo Ruian's story, "...I think after the two things my brother Su did, no one dares to pursue me anymore, so it shouldn't be Peach Blossom."

Gu Nuannuan: "That's not necessarily true. If he wasn't pursuing you, why would he invite you to a play?"

Jiang Momo shook her head, feeling it was somewhat unlikely.

"When I get home on Friday, I'll ask my mom if our two families have some kind of business relationship, and if he's trying to curry favor with me?"

Gu Nuannuan admired her sisters' ingenuity. A short while later, Jiang Momo received a friend request on WeChat, with the note: Luo Ruian.

Jiang Momo asked suspiciously, "How did he know my phone number and WeChat ID? I never told him."

Jiangsu said directly, "He asked around about you, Sister Mo. This person's intentions are not pure. Be careful."
