BXBX NOVEL Chapter 37 - 37 You Know What to Do
Su Ruowan took a deep breath.
Actually, she had been humiliated by Fang Yansha many times, but she didn’t feel any shame. However, it seemed that Fang Yansha was not going to stop, and she didn’t want the two children to be involved in this mess after they came back.
So she turned to Li Muchen and said, “Mr. Li, I’m sorry. Is it okay if we go to another place?”
Li Muchen put down his glass, reached out his hand, and held Su Ruowan’s left hand, hanging beside her. Before she could react, he had already stood up. He put his other hand in his trouser pocket and turned to face the women. He slightly narrowed his eyes and said in a cold and deep voice, “Ladies, would you like me to order a table of delicious dishes for you? Then we can sit together and have a good talk.”
A woman in a green skirt recognized him. She smiled and said, “It’s Mr. Li Muchen of the Jing family. Uh… no need. Please enjoy your meal. We’ll leave now.”
When the other women heard that he was a member of the Jing family, the expression on their faces also changed. They pulled Fang Yansha and quickly walked away.
Su Ruowan watched the group of women trotting away, feeling a little confused. Li Muchen helped her. She couldn’t believe he did it.
“Thank you,” she said in a low voice, looking at his calm face.
“Dad!” Jing Yanxi’s soft voice sounded. When Su Ruowan turned around, she realized that Li Muchen was still holding her left hand. His hand was dry and rough, keeping a moderate grip on the back of her hand. She withdrew her hand and walked back to her seat, trying to ignore the uneasiness in her heart.
“Girls are really troublesome. I’ve waited for her in the bathroom for a long time,” Jing Yanxi nagged like an adult. He then pulled Jiu Jiu over and said, “Wan Wan, sorry to keep you waiting for a long time.”
Helping Jiu Jiu on her chair, Su Ruowan shook her head and smiled at Jing Yanxi happily.
The cake and dishes they ordered were served one after another. Su Ruowan put on birthday hats for the two children and watched them blow the candles after making wishes. They clapped hands, sang, and took photos together. She was so moved that she almost cried.
Li Muchen had been silent all the time. There was only a vague hint of emotions in his dark eyes.
In the next few days, Li Muchen obviously stayed in the villa longer than usual. And Su Ruowan always felt that he would look at her, either intentionally or unintentionally. But every time she looked back at him, he would look calm and indifferent again. As time went by, she convinced herself that she was just thinking too much.
“Wow! Uncle Handsome is amazing!” Jiu Jiu’s eyes lit up. She looked at Li Muchen and clapped her hands.
Jing Yanxi puckered up his handsome face, looking angry. He didn’t know what was wrong with his father. In the past, his father seldom stayed at home. But recently, his father spent time at home almost every day and played games with them. And every time they played, his father always won. He turned around angrily and ignored his father.
Li Muchen stretched out his hand. “Yan Yan doesn’t want to play with us anymore. Jiu Jiu, let’s go outside and watch the goldfish, okay?”
Jiu Jiu nodded obediently, put her hand into his big hand, and they walked out of the door together.
When Su Ruowan finished cleaning up, she saw that Jing Yanxi was sitting alone on the sofa. The TV was not on, and the little boy’s figure looked lonely and stubborn.
“Yan Yan, why don’t you go out to play?” She walked towards him and stroked his black hair.
“Boo-hoo!” Jing Yanxi threw himself into Su Ruowan’s arms and burst into tears. “Wan Wan, you’re the only one who treats me well. Boo-hoo!”
Su Ruowan took out a piece of tissue and wiped his cute teary face. Feeling pity for him, she frowned and said, “Of course, I treat you well because you are… you arc my favorite Yan Yan, right?”
Jing Yanxi’s fair little face flushed. Su Ruowan’s arms were so soft and fragrant. Now, he felt that it was okay even if his father ignored him. He just wanted to be with Su Ruowan.
“Wan Wan…” After nestling in her embrace for a while, he got out of her arms reluctantly. He picked up his phone and said, “Wan Wan, help me create an account on Weibo. I want to follow you.”
Su Ruowan was rendered speechless.
When she asked Jing Yanxi what name to use in his account, he lowered his head and said shyly, “I want to be called Wan Wan’s Protector.”
Holding back her laughter, she touched his head and did as he said.
In the evening, Li Muchen coaxed Jing Yanxi to sleep. He then stood up gently, turned off the lights, and went out of the room.
He went to his study, sat at his desk, and read the new email he received. “Su Ruowan, a native of Moyang Area in G City. In 2008, she studied Business Administration at a university in D City. Then she took a break from school in October 2009 and disappeared. She only reappeared in D City in April 2011.” Was it just a coincidence? Li Muchen lit a cigarette, took a drag, and slowly puffed out a smoke ring. The computer screen reflected his facial features vaguely, making it difficult to see his expression.
In Jing Yang Group, the CEO’s office.
Two cautious knocks were heard from the door.
“Come in,” Jing Muchen said without raising his eyes.
Fan Yin, his special assistant, opened the door and entered. “Boss, Lawyer He is here.”
Jing Muchen still didn’t raise his eyes. With his slender fingers resting on his perfect chin, he stared at the computer screen and only said, “Let him in.”
Fan Yin invited a thin man in, walked out of the office, and closed the door behind him.
“Boss.” He Zhongxiang bent down but didn’t get a response for a long time. There was pin-drop silence in the office, and the atmosphere was weird.
“Do you know why I asked you to come back?” Finally, a cold voice resounded through the room.
He Zhongxiang wiped the sweat on his forehead and replied cautiously, “Boss, don’t worry. I have always kept my mouth shut about what happened that year.”
He didn’t tell anyone about it, not even his wife. Thinking of how Yan Nansheng patted him on the shoulder before saying that he would become a rich man soon, an alarm bell rang in his mind. He got flustered at once.
Jing Muchen stood up, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and approached He Zhongxiang step by step. A cold light flashed across his charming deep eyes as he said, “You know what? Back then, Su Ruowan was pregnant with twins.”
He Zhongxiang felt like his brain was about to explode. He raised his head, and his eyes widened in panic. “How could that be possible? Boss… I… I personally accompanied her each time. The doctor didn’t say that she was expecting twins.”
“What was the doctor’s name?” Jing Muchen asked coldly, staring at He Zhongxiang’s flustered eyes.
He Zhongxiang suddenly realized something. He answered quickly, “Helian Chen! At that time, Helian Chen was the most authoritative obstetrician in that private hospital.”
There was a touch of mockery in Jing Muchen’s eyes, but his face looked even colder. After a while, he said in a low voice that sounded like a devil’s whisper, “Su Ruowan and Helian Chen had concealed the fact that Su Ruowan was pregnant with twins at that time. Lawyer He, you know what to do, right?”
He Zhongxiang lowered his head and said, “Boss, don’t worry. I’ll deal with this matter right away..”
