Day n of not wanting to be a kept man's canary

She said "change of location" to appease him back then, but so much time has passed, and she never expected him to be waiting for her here.

Mu Yanxin hurriedly explained, "When I said change of location, I didn't mean change to a small villa."

"Oh, do you have any more fun places?"

"Didn't you give me the key for half a month? Shall we go there?" Mu Yanxin asked tentatively.

She'd rather go anywhere, just not to a small villa; the feeling of apprehension she gets from thinking about it still makes her nervous.

Leng Tingye gave a smug smile, "Not good!"

The man's tone was cold and indifferent, sending a chill down her spine. What was she even thinking? Between them, she had always been the one being dominated.

She was never in charge of anything. Just because they slept together a few times, she thought he would bring her home. It seems she was just being delusional.

That's right. Once she marries into the Leng family, she will be his rightful second sister-in-law. Right now, she's just playing around.

He probably thought she was a promiscuous woman.

The atmosphere inside the car became strange after the conversation ended. The ambiguous atmosphere inside the car was scattered by the cold wind, which also dispelled the lust in Leng Tingye's eyes.

After losing interest, the car sped up more and more.

The car stopped in front of the villa. Mu Yanxin didn't get out immediately, but glanced at Leng Tingye.

The man gripped the steering wheel, staring straight ahead, without uttering a word.

The man, having lost interest, seemed exceptionally cold-hearted. Just half an hour ago, the two were inseparable, but now, it was as if there was an iceberg separating them.

Mu Yanxin tactfully got out of the car, gently closed the door, and the car disappeared from sight.

A strange sadness washed over her, and she found herself somewhat amused; this ending was actually quite good.

As expected, Leng Changqing didn't return. He and Shen An'an were snuggled up on the sofa, playing video games.

Shen An'an, with her own little scheme in mind, stuck a strawberry in Leng Changqing's mouth and fed it to him, her voice soft and sweet, "Brother Changqing."

The man's attention was still on the game, and he replied indulgently, "What's wrong, honey?"

Shen An'an casually asked, "Brother Changqing, do you think the wives of the Leng family all have to be healthy?"

"Of course!"

That answer wasn't enough for Shen An'an, so she added another strawberry and fed it to him. "Tell me, if you can't have a baby, does that mean you can't marry into the Leng family?"

"Yes!"

For ordinary families, it's difficult to marry a woman who can't have children, let alone a top-tier wealthy family like the Leng family.

Leng Changqing casually asked, "Why are you asking this?"

Shen An'an nestled in his arms and said sweetly, "It's nothing, I was just asking."

"If Sister Yanxin can't have a baby, would you still marry her?"

"Holy crap!" Leng Changqing exclaimed, tapping his phone screen hard.

"They're talking to you," Shen An'an said unhappily.

Leng Changqing tilted his head and pecked Shen An'an on the head, "Baby, what did you say?"

Shen An'an patiently repeated.

Leng Changqing: "No, I don't even want to marry her right now. What's the point of marrying her if she's not pregnant?"

Suddenly realizing something, he put down his phone, pulled the woman in his arms closer, and comforted her, "Baby, are you overthinking things again?"

There was another reason why Leng Changqing agreed to marry Mu Yanxin: Shen An'an had injured her body when she had a miscarriage for him in her early years and could no longer conceive.

This became a lifelong pain for Shen An'an. For Shen Changqing, it didn't matter who he married, as long as they could have children.

Shen An'an pretended to cry, but she was secretly very pleased with herself.

Leng Changqing promised, "After she gives birth, I'll use that as an excuse to get a divorce, okay?"

"I'm fine with anything, as long as I can be by your side, I don't care about status."

A cunning and sinister smile appeared on her face. "Mu Yanxin, I'll let you have it easy for a couple of days. Then I'll make you infamous and make all the wealthy families laugh at you."

The next day, Mu Yanxin arrived at the hospital, opened the ward door, and saw a man lying on the bedside.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Wu Bai, fast asleep, holding a rattle drum in his rough, calloused hands.

Xia He slept peacefully with a slight smile on her face. This was the first time Mu Yanxin had seen her smile since she was hospitalized.

Mu Yanxin seemed to understand something instantly, and quietly withdrew.

She went to the doctor's office, where the doctor told her that after she left yesterday, Xia He secretly ran to the rooftop and jumped, but a strong man pulled her back up at the last second.

A tragedy was averted.

The man the doctor mentioned was Wu Bai, and Mu Yanxin gasped in shock upon hearing this.

Back in the ward, Wu Bai was teasing Xia He with a rattle drum, and Xia He's face showed a long-lost smile.

The two were so engrossed in their own world that Mu Yanxin stood there for quite a while without being noticed.

"Sister, when did you arrive?" Xia He was the first to notice her.

Wu Bai quickly stood up, moved aside to keep his distance from Xia He, and, like a child who had done something wrong, bowed his head and rubbed his hands, "Miss Mu! I..."

He still doesn't know that Xia He is not Mu Yanxin's biological sister.

Xia He explained first, "Sister, Wu Bai saved me yesterday when I was feeling hopeless!"

Mu Yanxin: "Really?"

"It's like this, yesterday Yeye told me to come to the hospital to pick you up, and I happened to run into her who was having a breakdown... Later, you didn't come back, and I was worried, so I stayed here!" Wu Bai explained.

Sweating profusely with anxiety, Mu Yanxin couldn't help but laugh at his simple-minded appearance. "You don't need to explain, I saw everything!"

Her gaze fell on the rattle drum in Wu Bai's hand, and she smiled.

Wu Bai was terrified and threw the rattle drum onto the hospital bed. "She said she couldn't sleep, so I bought her this. She likes to hear this sound!"

Mu Yanxin smiled. It was obvious to a blind man that Wu Bai had feelings for Xia He.

"You said Leng Tingye was looking for me? Why didn't he call me?"

Wu Bai said, "Master Ye said he'd called you countless times, but your phone was switched off, so he sent me to pick you up!"

Mu Yanxin roughly knew why Leng Tingye suddenly appeared at the Bone Formation; he must have sent Wu Bai to pick someone up, but Wu Bai failed to do so.

So, he was angry with her last night and was deliberately punishing her!

"So, you haven't gone home all night." Knowing Leng Tingye's personality, she reminded Wu Bai.

Wu Bai only realized what was happening at first, and dashed out the door like lightning. You have to admit, this simple-minded man is really cute.

Although he was Leng Tingye's subordinate, he was completely different from him.

"Sister, could you please draw the curtains for me?"

Today I especially want to see the outside world; the sun is shining so brightly.

"it is good!"

She was finally able to face the world, and a smile appeared on her face, which might be related to Wu Bai!

Mu Yanxin drew back the curtains and teased, "Do you like Wu Bai?"

The sunlight shone on the girl's face, giving her a kind of sickly beauty.
