Chapter 254: Chapter 252: Cultivating Affection, Forgetting the Daughter_1
After all the fuss they made, they seed to have completely forgotten about their precious daughter. It wasn’t until they were all neat and ready to leave that Mu Yingchen couldn’t help but raise his hand to check his watch. Not that he needed to, but one look, and he got the shock of his life—it was already past eight o’clock? He couldn’t help but raise his eyebrow. How did ti fly so fast!
When they arrived, it was Jian Manhui who took Shanshan away. Now that it was after eight, they couldn’t still be in this hotel, could they?
“Wanwan, it seems like we’ve forgotten about Shanshan…” He looked helplessly at Su Wanxia who was sulking.
As soon as Su Wanxia heard him ntion Shanshan, she imdiately pointed at him, “Right, wasn’t Shanshan with you? Where did you take her?”
Su Wanxia would never think he lost Shanshan; she just wanted to know to whom he had entrusted the poor girl… She must be heartbroken!
Mu Yingchen’s face turned slightly unnatural, “I asked her to go out with Jian Manhui…”
It wasn’t until Su Wanxia heard Jian Manhui’s na that she suddenly rembered—Manhui said she was going downstairs to buy sanitary napkins. Had she co back? If she had, oh my, Su Wanxia really felt like digging a hole and burying herself in it.
“Mu Yingchen, you’re a scourge!” Su Wanxia blurted out furiously, then quickly took out her phone and dialed Jian Manhui’s number.
At that mont, Jian Manhui had just reached her apartnt on the 12th floor. She was feeling incredibly frustrated as she was unlocking her door, and just as she managed to open it, her phone in her bag suddenly rang.
She hastened the unlocking, went inside, and right after stepping in, she took her phone out with one hand while locking the door behind her with the other.
Seeing it was Su Wanxia calling, she imdiately pursed her lips, her annoyance showing. She’d been held up until now and just rembered to call? Such a betrayer of friends for the sake of romance!
She must be asking about their little Princess.
Jian Manhui pressed the answer button and said irritably into the phone, “Oh, have you finally finished your lovey-dovey ti?”
When Su Wanxia heard Jian Manhui, her face involuntarily reddened, “Manhui, I’m sorry, okay? How about I co over to apologize in person another day?”
After all, it was supposed to be her own company, and here she had locked Manhui out of the room and also dumped her daughter on her. The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt.
“Alright, no need for formalities. If you’re really grateful and want to repay , then just persuade your relative to stop pestering , and all will be well~”
As soon as Jian Manhui brought up Su Ran, that shaless guy, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger, the thought alone made her feel like clawing at the walls!
At first, Su Wanxia was a bit confused, but as soon as Jian Manhui ntioned the word “pestering,” she imdiately thought of Su Ran.
Could it be? Su Ran had actually been pestering her? Goodness, she was so shocked!
“Manhui, you really don’t have any feelings for him at all?” Su Wanxia couldn’t help but probe.
To her surprise, Jian Manhui let out a cold snort, “I might have feelings for a cat or a dog, but I would never have feelings for soone like him. Wanxia, please help
out, I really don’t want to see that scumbag again…”
Su Wanxia couldn’t help but raise her eyebrow—just what had Su Ran done to upset her to this extent?
However, Manhui’s strong reaction could also an that she actually did have so feelings for Su Ran, couldn’t it?
Thinking this way, but not daring to say it to Jian Manhui who was clearly angered, Su Wanxia replied, “Alright then, I’ll talk to him when I get back. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”
Jian Manhui seed to really breathe a sigh of relief, “Thanks. Also, your little Princess is already at your place. She’s not happy with you two, so you’d better pamper her when you get back.”
“Okay, got it, thanks, Manhui, muah–”
“That might work with your other half, but I just can’t handle it–”
“Haha.”
Yet Jian Manhui hit the nail on the head, as Mu Yingchen would have loved Su Wanxia to treat him that way. Seeing he hadn’t been treated like this for a long ti, he imdiately felt jealous on the sidelines.
Watching the two won chatting endlessly on the phone, he finally couldn’t help but pull Su Wanxia into his arms, then walked towards the door with her in his embrace.
Since Su Wanxia was on the phone, she couldn’t say anything to him, so she just glared at him angrily. However, he seed to pretend her glare didn’t exist and continued to walk her out as he opened the door.
Su Wanxia had no choice but to say a few quick words to Jian Manhui and then swiftly hung up the phone, pushing him away with her hand.
“Mu Yingchen, mind your image!”
Mu Yingchen raised his eyebrows, “What’s wrong with holding my own wife?” he said, though he didn’t hold onto Su Wanxia again, but instead stretched out one hand to take hers.
“Let’s go–let’s go see Shanshan and then go out to eat–”
Su Wanxia stopped struggling and let him lead her towards the elevator.
She hadn’t eaten all evening, and had wasted so much energy; she really was very hungry. But as Mu Yingchen said, they should first go back to see their darling daughter, or else the little one would surely be upset.
As they walked out of the hotel, the sky dark as ink, Su Wanxia couldn’t help but smile. Whenever she used to look at the pitch-black night sky, her heart would uncontrollably tremble, then it would be overwheld by endless loneliness and longing.
But tonight, she found the night sky, dotted with stars, exceptionally beautiful.
“Let’s go~~” A whisper suddenly reached her ears, luxurious and deep, magnetically pleasing.
Then her body was pulled forward by that person, and the smile at the corners of her mouth grew even deeper.
“I’m so hungry~~” she suddenly said, coquettishly addressing the tall and straight figure ahead.
Mu Yingchen paused mid-step, turned his stunningly handso face, his obsidian-like eyes shimring, but his gaze was filled with utter indulgence.
“Shall we go for dinner first?”
“Let’s not, let’s hurry back to see the little one. If she throws a tantrum, she won’t talk to anyone for three days,” Su Wanxia said this ti, taking the lead and pulling him toward the parking area.
If it had been another ti, Mu Yingchen would have certainly taken her straight to dinner, not wanting her to go hungry. Besides, today, he had really tired her out.
But they had been too focused on nurturing their relationship, having left their little Princess alone for so long, so it was better to go back and soothe her first.
Su Wanxia guessed correctly, the little one was indeed sulking at ho on her own.
When Mu Yingchen drove up to the Su Family ho, it was nearly nine o’clock. As soon as the door opened, Su Wanxia rushed inside.
After a quick scan of the living room, she only saw her father alone, with no sign of her mother, her beloved daughter, or Su Ran.
“Dad, where did everyone go?” Su Wanxia couldn’t help but ask.
With a helpless smile, Su’s father said, “Su Ran took Jian Man back, and Shanshan, seeing that none of you were coming back, went upstairs in a huff. Your mother is with her. Hurry up and go coax her–”
