CHAPTER 631: CHAPTER 548: CONVINCED

Li Si resisted the urge to hold her forehead, pointing at her and scolding, "You’re such a stubborn child! There’s only a week left until the engagement, invitations have been sent out, and the hotel is booked. Now you suddenly say you’re not getting engaged and don’t even explain why. What is your mom supposed to do?

Even if you hide here with me, it won’t help! Maybe she’ll let you off tonight, but what about tomorrow? You can’t hide from her forever.

And you haven’t explained the cause and effect clearly. Do you think Mom would rashly call Jin Yichen’s dad to cancel the engagement? You’re too naive!"

Given Mrs. Leng’s temperament, she might be waiting at home for Leng Ning to come back and confess everything now!

Without understanding what’s going on, how could she tell Jin Jiachao? She might guess Leng Ning and Jin Yichen had a minor spat and said something in anger!

Leng Ning mournfully said, "Anyway, I can’t get engaged to him no matter what! Fortunately, we’re not getting married directly, or I’d regret it to death! Sis-in-law, I told you before, he’s different with that Yin Xuan, didn’t I? Now you see it with your own eyes, right?

I’ll have a good night’s rest at your place tonight and go back tomorrow to explain everything myself!"

Actually, she was very upset inside, thinking she’d finally met a man who truly understood her in many ways.

But she didn’t expect such a troubling issue to arise just before the engagement!

"Xiao Ning! I feel you’re being too hasty! Have you really thought it through, or are you making this decision impulsively? Don’t regret it later! Even if Yichen made a mistake tonight, it’s not enough to cancel an engagement, right? This is a big deal, you know?"

Li Si still thinks she’s too impulsive!

Leng Ning’s eyes reddened with grievance, "Sis-in-law! You don’t know! I barely heard his explanation, and then that Yin Xuan called. After the call, the way he spoke to me clearly showed he believed Yin Xuan!

How do I stand in his eyes then? And when I was mad and stopped a taxi, he barely made an effort to hold me back and let go, and I sat in the back crying! I’m thinking! If it’s like this, what kind of engagement is this? It’s more like madness!

I like him, but I’m not that desperate! With Lei Ming, I was much tougher..."

Seeing her getting more excited, Li Si didn’t persuade her further: "Alright! If you’ve thought it through, I won’t stop you! Have you eaten?"

Li Si knows Leng Ning’s nature, and saying more at this time is pointless. Besides, Jin Yichen should learn a lesson this time.

Leng Ning shook her head pitifully, "No! I shook him off and took a taxi here, Sis-in-law, I’m so hungry!"

Li Si helplessly tapped her forehead, "You! Go to the cloakroom, find a new dress to wear, and come downstairs! Let Aunt Zhang make you something delicious!"

Fortunately, their sizes are about the same, just that Li Si’s breasts are a bit more prominent during nursing.

"Sis-in-law, you’re the best to me! My brother is so lucky to have married you; it’s my good fortune too!"

"!!"

Facing the continuous flow of delicious food, Leng Ning turned her grief into appetite and ate until she had the energy to play with Buding.

"Sis-in-law! You said Buding can say ’Mom’ already?"

Li Si boasted with a smile, "Yes! Buding, let your auntie hear you, say ’Mom! Mama!’"

Buding tilted his head curiously, observing Li Si’s mouth movements.

Grinned but didn’t say a word.

Seeing this, Leng Ning finally stopped worrying about those problems and focused all her attention on Buding.

"Buding! Call! Say ’Mama!’ Let Auntie hear it!"

Her nephew was truly smart, so young yet already able to say ’Mama’!

If her mom finds out, she’ll surely show off everywhere.

Li Si wasn’t disheartened even though he didn’t say it, and took out yesterday’s video to show Leng Ning.

When Leng Ning saw Buding actually saying ’Mama’, she excitedly picked him up, "Oh my! Buding is amazing! When can you say ’Auntie’? Come on! Learn with Auntie, ’Auntie! Auntie!’"

"Ah aha!" Buding wiggled in her arms.

"Not ’ah’, it’s ’Auntie’, look at my mouth, ’Auntie! Auntie!’"

"Ooh ooh... ooh ooh..." Buding didn’t learn, but Xiao Guai next to them was earnestly mimicking.

"Haha! Xiao Guai! You’re too cute!"

Xiao Guai was in Leng Ning’s embrace, blinking large eyes adorably.

Li Si couldn’t stop laughing either, Xiao Guai was trying to learn to talk!

"Sis-in-law! Tonight I want to cuddle with Xiao Guai while sleeping!"

"Sure! Go ahead and cuddle!"

Leng Mochen came out of the study to find Li Si, hearing bursts of laughter downstairs, and seeing Leng Ning there, he glanced at Li Si, who quietly shook her head and signaled him.

When Leng Ning saw Leng Mochen coming downstairs, she quickly stood up, "Brother!"

"Leng Ning is here, have a seat!"

With Leng Mochen’s arrival, the atmosphere tensed a bit. After some small talk, Leng Ning took Xiao Guai to the guest room.

And Li Si, unable to withstand his strong hints, carried Buding back to the room.

After coaxing the child to sleep, once Leng Mochen felt like he had teased enough, he said, "Heizi got the news, Zhang Shan is detained for a month!"

Li Si sneered, "Serves her right! If something major had happened that day, even jail time would be too lenient!"

Such a loathsome person!

No matter the grudges between people, there’s no need to do those things in public, dragging innocent people down!

Leng Mochen mockingly said, "She’ll find life vastly changed when she gets out!"

Li Si asked him with her eyes, but he just smiled without speaking.

She didn’t ask further. It was indeed a busy day, carefully observing someone’s complexion, anxiety over whether he’d come back seven more times?

Leng Mochen amusingly saw her small gestures, "What are you thinking?"

Li Si pitifully raised her hand, "Husband! Please spare me!"

Her small body really couldn’t take it!

He immediately cuddled her punitively, "Giving in?"

She nodded repeatedly, "Yield!"

"Alright then! I’ll spare you tonight!"

"Oh yeah! Husband! You’re the best! I love you so much!" With that, she pecked his handsome face.

His gaze darkened, "But hugs and kisses are still on the table!"

"Mmm mmm..."

Leng Family.

Leng Qiankai came home late tonight, seeing Ouyang Yan unusually pensive on the sofa.

"What’s the matter?"

Mrs. Leng only reacted upon hearing the sound, realizing he was back.

Quickly getting up to take his briefcase, she sighed, "I’m waiting for Xiao Ning to come back!"

"What happened to her?" It was already past eleven at night, not early!

"She suddenly called me at night, asking me to tell Jin Yichen’s dad to cancel the engagement. I asked her why, but she wouldn’t say, only telling me not to ask, saying she just wouldn’t get engaged no matter what!

You see, this child, always acting on whims! There’s only a week left till the engagement, canceling now, how would that look on us? I’m guessing the couple had a fight!"

Leng Qiankai’s face turned dark, "Then where has she gone at this hour without coming back?"

Mrs. Leng suddenly had a flash of insight, "Could she be at Mochen’s?"

"Then call Mochen to ask, since she’s a girl, it’s not safe coming back so late! It’d better not become a bigger issue!"

After saying this, Leng Qiankai felt quite dissatisfied with Jin Yichen.

He had already forgotten the past, not fussing over things! Generously allowing them to be together. As a man, couldn’t he be a little more accommodating?

Couldn’t he just coax her?

Mrs. Leng hesitated for a moment but dialed the number after all. (To be continued. If you like this story, please head to Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your votes and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
