After I Became Famous, the CEO Wants Remarriage
Chapter 255 - Chapter 255 Chapter 255 The Ugly Wife Must Meet the In-Laws

Chapter 255: Chapter 255: The Ugly Wife Must Meet the In-Laws Too~ Chapter 255: Chapter 255: The Ugly Wife Must Meet the In-Laws Too~ Chengcheng curled up in the hospital bed, looking just like a sick little cat, tugging at everyone’s heartstrings.

Su Huimiao’s heart suddenly filled with discomfort, but thinking of all those “good deeds” Shen Jiangqing had done, the Li Family really couldn’t tolerate her!

Yet, a mother plays a crucial role in the growth of her child!

Su Huimiao sighed, “Ah, why didn’t Shen Jiangqing consider Chengcheng before doing those things? After all, it’s the children who end up getting hurt because of the adults’ issues…”

How could Li Lingyang not understand this?

He knew Chengcheng had always missed Shen Jiangqing and wanted to see her.

But… Shen Jiangqing truly didn’t deserve it!

Her intentions were malicious; she had set Ning Yichu up time and again and even impersonated the person who saved his life, she was more than worthy of death!

If it wasn’t for the fact that she was Chengcheng and Doudou’s biological mother, he would have had her dealt with long ago, so why did he only lock her in a psychiatric hospital…

“I will make time to spend more with Chengcheng!”

Now that was all that could be done, Su Huimiao nodded.

Chengcheng, feigning sleep on the bed, overheard their conversation.

It seemed that in order to have mommy come back, he would need to perform this act a few more times…

…

After work, Ning Yichu, as usual, went to pick up the child from the kindergarten.

Then, she heard about what had happened to Chengcheng and was slightly surprised.

“Mummy, my brother and I sneaked out and overheard that Chengcheng passed out from low blood sugar because he was missing his mummy!” Ningning spoke.

Hearing this, a shadow crossed Ning Yichu’s eyes.

Shen Jiangqing had done so many wrongs and indeed deserved punishment, but the child was innocent, and Chengcheng’s longing for his mother was not wrong!

She wondered if Li Lingyang, as a father, would compromise for the sake of his child?

“He’s quite pitiable, such a young age and without his mummy by his side.”

Ningning, “A pitiable person must have hateful aspects. If he hadn’t deliberately given me the bracelet to frame me for theft, none of the things that followed would have happened…”

“True, but strong people don’t kick someone when they’re down because there’s no challenge in it. Stay away from him in the future.”

“Yes.”

The little guy nodded his head in agreement, when Ning Yichu’s cellphone suddenly rang.

It was Aunt Wang calling.

“Lady Ning, a lot of people have suddenly arrived at our house, saying they’re Michelin chefs sent by President Li to cook for you. Should I let them in?”

Even if Ning Yichu were to guess with a strand of hair, she would know whose doing it was.

Looking at the little ones beside her…

“Let them in.”

A moment later…

Ning Yichu received a text from Li Lingyang.

“Sorry, Chengcheng had an issue tonight, so I can’t come to accompany you.”

His words made it sound as if she really needed his company!

Ning Yichu immediately replied, “No need, stay at home and take good care of the child.”

“Take care of yourself when I’m not around.” Ever since he found out Ning Yichu was likely the person who had saved him in the past, he couldn’t wait to fly to her side.

But Chengcheng couldn’t be neglected.

“Hmm.”

Ning Yichu didn’t ask anything further and turned off her phone.

…

At the other end.

After Fan Yuke finished her work at the set, she saw Mu Bailang’s flashy Porsche.

She paused for a moment and then pretended not to see him, striding forward with her sunglasses on.

“?! ” Mu Bailang’s face turned dark.

He lowered himself to come pick her up in person, yet this woman simply ignored him?

How disgraceful could it be to be associated with him?!

Mu Bailang drove after her.

Yuke sped up even more.

Until she reached a street corner where no one paid any attention.

Only then did she pull open the passenger door and sit down.

No sooner had she gotten in the car than she received Mu Bailang’s annoyed interrogation, “Yuke, as Party B, have you forgotten the obligations you’re supposed to fulfill?”

Yuke shot back, “Mu Bailang, as Party A, do you have some misunderstanding about the phrase ‘hidden marriage’?”

Did this guy want the whole world to know they were involved with each other?

Mu Bailang was momentarily at a loss for words, “They won’t know we’ve registered our marriage.”

“Just don’t come to the set to find me in the future. A phone call will do.”

“…” Who exactly, between the two of them, was Party A daddy?

Mu Bailang really wanted to argue, but Yuke wasn’t exactly wrong, and even though it was frustrating, he had to bear with it.

“By the way, what brought you here today?” Yuke asked.

Mu Bailang lazily lifted his eyelids, “My family wants to meet you.”

After he told Old Mrs. Mu about him and Yuke getting registered, she was overjoyed, her mouth wouldn’t close from smiling.

However, happy as she was, Old Mrs. Mu wasn’t foolish. She felt that their haste was somewhat abnormal and harbored doubts, wanting to investigate tonight.

Mu Bailang added, “Make sure you put on a good act later, don’t give us away!”

“Please, as if I need you to tell me. I’m a professional!” Yuke said confidently.

“You’d better be.”

Mu Bailang scoffed, then started up the car.

Yuke opened the sun visor and began to adjust her hair and makeup in the mirror, wiping off her bright red lipstick.

“By the way, Mu Bailang, what kind of person does your family like?”

So that she could play her part well.

Mu Bailang, driving with one hand, gave a cold laugh in response, “How could you not know?”

Yuke could charm her grandmother to a point of total confusion, with Imperial City recognizing no one else but her as the granddaughter-in-law. Now to claim ignorance about what Old Mrs. Mu favored…

Hearing his sarcastic ridicule, Yuke was momentarily stunned, feeling utterly perplexed.

She had never even met his family members; how could she possibly know their preferences?!

Yuke fell silent, temper rising within her, too proud to continue asking.

Don’t say it, then. Worst comes to worst, she’d just improvise!

Could that really be too hard for her?

Soon enough, the car arrived at the Mu Family’s old mansion.

Located in a renowned wealthy area of Imperial City, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, even affluent families with money couldn’t buy a place here. Those who could live here were Old Money, their social status self-evident.

The decorating style here was understated luxury, yet it retained a simple and grand atmosphere.

Mu Bailang got out of the car, walking down with practiced ease.

Yuke, in her high heels, hurried to follow, naturally taking his arm.

Mu Bailang’s back stiffened slightly, and the next second, Yuke’s explanation rang in his ear, “Don’t get the wrong idea, I’m just fulfilling the acting obligations of our contract!”

Mu Bailang snorted softly, “Acceptable, I suppose.”

“Well of course, I’m a professional!”

Yuke followed Mu Bailang’s lead, heading inside, passing through the linked verandas and straight into the main hall.

Before they even entered, they saw an old lady dressed in a dark red Tang suit, eagerly calling out.

“Yuke, my dear granddaughter-in-law, you’ve finally arrived!” Saying this, Old Mrs. Mu walked over with her cane.

Mu Bailang, ignored on the side, “…”
