“Nonsense!” Rong Xuelong seemed to have not heard Su Yanyun’s speechlessness and was instead smug. “Am I quick-witted enough?”

Su Yanyun was speechless.

“Okay.” Rong Xuelong patted Su Yanyun’s shoulder boldly. “From today onwards, Sister will protect you. Whoever dares to have any improper thoughts about you, say my name!”

Su Yanyun had to remind her kindly. “What if… Rong Linyi thinks otherwise of me?”

Rong Xuelong…

This little girl was much smarter than she looked.

“Sister-in-law, what are you saying?” Sister Rong smiled affectionately. “We were just playing a game and joking with Jinghui. You… won’t report everything to Linyi, right?”

…

The moment he connected to the phone video, Rong Linyi realized a problem.

“Where are you?” His eyes were locked on Su Yanyun’s background. That was not the bed and wall of their bedroom.

“At Sister’s house.” Su Yanyun replied generously. “Sister invited me over to play. She felt it wasn’t safe to stay too late, so she just let me stay with her overnight.”

Rong Linyi didn’t answer and stared straight into Su Yanyun’s eyes.

He was trying to determine if her words were true.

Rong Xuelong couldn’t be that bored…

Su Yanyun was a little confused. This was the same answer as what she rehearsed with her sister, but she wasn’t completely confident in fooling Rong Linyi.

“How was the banquet tonight?” Rong Linyi seemed to believe Su Yanyun’s words and asked in concern.

This time, Su Yanyun was the one who contacted him first.

He still had something on when he received her invitation to call. He immediately left everyone and found an empty office.

He guessed that Su Yanyun had something important to discuss with him.

Su Yanyun lowered her head and took a deep breath after a long time. “Hubby, I received news today…”

“What?” Rong Linyi frowned. Suddenly, Jiang Yilin’s matter flashed through his mind.

Did Yanyun know about this woman’s existence?

Jiang Chengxi was behind this?

No, how did Jiang Chengxi know about his relationship with Yanyun?

While Rong Linyi’s mind was racing, Su Yanyun had already looked up. Her voice was actually filled with accusation. “Hubby, why? Sister has checked and found out that I’m still single! Are we really married? Is our marriage certificate real? Did you lie to me about something?”

Rong Linyi was stunned for a moment.

Then, the corners of his lips curled up and he heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Yanyun still didn’t know about Jiang Yilin.

He had to tell her personally about his ex and not let outsiders gossip and cause a misunderstanding.

As for what made Su Yanyun uneasy…

“I deliberately hid this news.” He explained. “I don’t want our marriage to be used by others with ulterior motives. How can the marriage certificate be fake? There are steel marks and codes on it. It can’t be checked now, but I made the system conceal it. It definitely exists in the Civil Affairs Bureau’s archive. Understand?”

“Really?” Su Yanyun blinked pitifully. “Hubby, you didn’t lie to me?”

“No.” Rong Linyi saw her wronged expression and couldn’t help but tease her. “Unless you’re not obedient.”

“I’ve always been obedient.” Su Yanyun puffed up her cheeks.

“Okay, lift up your pajamas.” Rong Linyi coaxed.

“What are you doing?” Su Yanyun was alert.

Rong Linyi’s eyes darkened. “I think you seem to have… gained weight. Your waist is even rounder…”
