âSilly girl,â Su Jianâan smiled, âI promised to help you.â
Xiao Yunyun also laughed. She didnât say anything, but she sounded like she was crying.
At this time, Lu Boyan came back from the study.
Su Jianâan looked at Lu Boyan and said to Xiao Yunyun on the other side of the phone, âThatâs it for now. Iâll contact you after discussing the specific details with Xiaoxi.â
âMm!â Xiao Yunyun paused and suddenly laughed. Her voice sounded meaningful. âIs my cousin-in-law back?â
â...â This little girl!
Su Jianâan decisively hung up on Xiao Yunyun.
Lu Boyan had already walked to the bedside and looked at Su Jianâan. âYunyunâs call?â
âYes.â Su Jianâan nodded and her expression became a little complicated. âYunyun still wants to go ahead with the wedding plans.â
Lu Boyan looked at Su Jianâan for a moment and asked, âDonât you want Yunyun and Yuechuan to get married?â
âHow could it be?â Su Jianâan seemed to have thought it through. Her expression slowly relaxed, and a smile appeared on her lips. âI just think that Yunyun is much braver than me.â
Lu Boyan leaned back against the headboard and looked at Su Jianâan calmly. âWhy do you think so?â
Su Jianâan snuggled into Lu Boyanâs arms and whispered, âAfter graduation, I knew that you were in City A and I could even see your company from the place where I lived... but I didnât even dare to meet you.â
Xiao Yunyun was her total opposite. In this case, Xiao Yunyun could still resolutely say that she was going to marry Shen Yuechuan.
Su Jianâan felt ashamed of herself.
Lu Boyan had already noticed something elseâ
He looked at Su Jianâan thoughtfully. âYou could see Lu Enterprises from your previous apartment?â
Only then did Su Jianâan realize what she had inadvertently let slip out. She silently let go of Lu Boyan and looked away, wanting to run away.
However, how could Lu Boyan give her a chance?
Lu Boyan turned over and pressed Su Jianâan down. He looked at her intently and said, âJianâan, answer me.â
Su Jianâanâs cheeks blushed a bright red, and she could only avoid Lu Boyanâs eyes. âThereâs, thereâs nothing to say...â
âJianâan.â Lu Boyanâs voice sank, and then there was a kind of charm. âI heard it very clearly just now. Are you really not going to tell me?â
Su Jianâan closed her eyes and went all out. âYes, I could see Lu Enterprises from my previous apartment!â
Lu Boyan smirked and said in a happy voice, âDid you peep at me every day?â
Su Jianâanâs expression became gloomy and aggrieved. âThereâs a river between us. Itâs too far. I couldnât see...â
Lu Boyan burst into laughter and lowered his head to kiss Su Jianâanâs lips. He looked at her and said, âNow that weâre so close, can you see me?â
His eyes were already deep-set, and at this moment, there was a touch of affection in them. They looked so charming that people could almost drown in them.
Feeling embarrassed, Su Jianâan was stunned again and couldnât react for a long time.
Lu Boyan was not in a hurry. He just looked at Su Jianâan and patiently waited for her answer.
He thought that Su Jianâan would never know that when she was mesmerized by him, she was more enticing than anything in the world, and he just wanted to... eat her bit by bit.
After a long time, Su Jianâan came to her senses. As soon as she opened her mouth, before she could speak, Lu Boyanâs lips landed on hers and sucked on her lips.
Su Jianâan felt that Lu Boyanâs kiss was like a whirlpool, which was created by Lu Boyan. She had no choice but to sink with Lu Boyan.
However, as long as Lu Boyan was with her, she was willing.
On this matter, even if they had done it many times, Su Jianâan was still a little nervous.
Only this time, she seemed to be ready to risk everything. She was very relaxed and even cooperated with Lu Boyanâs every movement.
More and more of her secrets were revealed, so there was nothing for her to be embarrassed about.
Lu Boyan loved the way Su Jianâan reacted so much that his movements became more and more gentle, and Su Jianâan almost melted into a pool of water under his body.
The night promised to be romantic and endless.
On the other side of the city, Xu Youning, who was in the old house of the Kang family, was much calmer.
Since she was forced to tell Kang Ruicheng about her illness, she knew that Kang Ruicheng would definitely find a doctor for her. Everything she had hidden would be unveiled little by little in front of Kang Ruicheng.
At that time, what she needed to face was a great life-and-death crisis.
But now, she had solved the crisis without any effort.
She did not believe that it was luck. She was more willing to believe that this was a premeditated arrangement.
As for whether Mu Sijue was behind it or not, she would find evidence to confirm it.
âAuntie Youning.â Mumu pushed the door open and ran in. He jumped onto the bed and said, âIâve finished drinking my milk!â
In fact, Mumu didnât like to drink milk, but because of Xu Youningâs request, he still obediently had a glass of milk every morning and night.
Xu Youningâs reason was very simpleâone could grow faster if one drank milk.
Her reason happened to conform to Mumuâs long-time desireâMumu hoped that he could grow up quickly and be capable of protecting Xu Youning.
Because of this, the little kid drank his milk enthusiastically.
Xu Youning couldnât tell Mumu that now, no one could protect her.
If she wanted to live well, she could only rely on herself to overcome all obstacles and difficulties.
Seeing Xu Youning lost in thought, Mumu shook her leg and asked, âAuntie Youning, why arenât you listening to me?â
âI heard you.â Xu Youning smiled and got out of bed with the little fellow. âLetâs go brush your teeth.â
After entering the bathroom, Xu Youning took the little fellowâs toothbrush, helped him squeeze out the toothpaste, and then squatted down. âOpen your mouth.â
Mumu opened his mouth obediently. âAhââ
He could brush his teeth by himself, but when Xu Youning was there, he liked to rely on her.
Xu Youning was also willing to do these trivial and heart-warming things for the little fellow. She turned on the electric toothbrush, cleaned the little fellowâs teeth with a buzz, and finally took him back to the room.
After lying down, Mumu suddenly hugged Xu Youning.
Xu Youning was stunned and touched the little guyâs head. âWhatâs wrong?â
The little fellow shook his head. âNothing. I want to sleep with you in my arms.â
Although Mumu was young, he had never done anything without reason.
Now, he obviously didnât want to tell her the truth.
Xu Youning didnât force Mumu. She smiled and patted him on the back to coax him to sleep.
After all, Mumu was a child. No matter how troublesome his worries were, he still fell asleep soon.
Xu Youning also closed her eyes and fell asleep with the little fellow.
A few hours later, the morning sun covered the darkness of yesterday and a new day arrived.
When Xu Youning took Mumu downstairs, Kang Ruicheng had just returned home.
Xu Youning was not surprised. When Kang Ruicheng was busy, he often didnât come back at night, so she had said that even if he lived with Mumu, he couldnât take care of Mumu.
âGood morning, Daddy!â After waking up, Mumu felt refreshed and energetic. His young voice was full of vitality. âWhy did you come back only now?â
Kang Ruicheng was in a good mood. He picked Mumu up and said, âIâve been helping Auntie Youning find a doctor.â
âWow!â Mumuâs eyes lit up instantly. âHave you found one?â
âOf course.â Kang Ruicheng said, âAfter breakfast, we can take Aunt Youning to the hospital right away.â
âOkay!â Mumu clapped his hands happily. âIn this way, Auntie Youning can get better!â
âYouâre right!â Kang Ruicheng agreed with Mumu enthusiastically and then looked at Xu Youning. âA Ning, what do you think?â
Xu Youning didnât want to go to the hospital right away.
If she guessed right and Mu Sijue already knew everything she had hidden, then Mu Sijue should help her deal with her treatment as well.
No matter which hospital Kang Ruicheng took her to, Mu Sijue needed time to arrange everything in the hospital in order to avoid her secret being exposed.
She needed to buy time for Mu Sijue.
Xu Youning shook her head and said, âI donât want to go today.â
Before Kang Ruicheng could speak, Mumu had slipped down from his arms. He ran to Xu Youning and looked at her in confusion. âAuntie Youning, why donât you want to see a doctor?â
Xu Youning tried her best to give a simple explaination that Mumu could understand. âI feel much better. I donât want to go for the time being. When I feel uncomfortable, I will go, okay?â
Mumu pursed his lips. âI hope you can go now.â
âI donât feel uncomfortable now. Even if I go to the hospital, the doctor canât treat me.â Xu Youning tried her best to persuade the little fellow. âI want to stay at home with you. Can I go there in a few days?â
Mumu lowered his head and thought for a moment. He didnât continue to press Xu Youning. He said reluctantly, âWell, you can ask Daddy about it again.â
Kang Ruicheng was as confused as Mumu. He frowned and looked at Xu Youning. âDo you really just want to stay at home to accompany Mumu?â
Xu Youning motioned for Kang Ruicheng to go out.
Persuading Mumu was not of much use to her. In the end, she still needed to convince Kang Ruicheng.
In the yard, Xu Youning said, âWhether I go to the hospital or not, the answer will be disappointing. I donât want to face a disappointing answer so soon.â
âA Ning, you promised me that you would cooperate on the treatment.â Kang Ruichengâs face darkened a little. âYou canât break your promise.â
âDonât worry. I know Iâm sick. Itâs a matter of course for me to receive treatment. I wonât go back on my word.â After a pause, Xu Youning asked, âBut can I postpone it by one day?â
Kang Ruicheng looked closely at her and found that there was fear in Xu Youningâs eyes.
He suddenly understood that it was not that Xu Youning didnât want to see a doctor, but that she was afraid to hear the diagnosis that would be a death knell to her.
He remembered Xu Youning from a few years ago.
At that time, Xu Youning was still young, but there was fearlessness in her eyes as if she could carry anything that weighed on her shoulders with a smile.
This was the first time he had seen fear in Xu Youningâs eyes.
Death probably was a real threat to Xu Youning.
Kang Ruichengâs heart softened almost instantly. He held Xu Youning in his arms and said softly, âOkay, letâs go to the hospital in a few days.â
âOkay.â Youning grabbed Kang Ruichengâs clothes. She seemed to be touched, but in fact, her eyes were calm.
She no longer cared about the truth and lies.
Now, she just wanted to achieve her goal.
