He had the driver send Zhu Qianying home to sleep while he got off the bus halfway through and went back to work at Yanhuang.

The driver Old Chen actually wanted to tell his young master that he had only been married for a few days, shouldn’t he be accompanying his wife, go out with her, coaxing her, rather than working all day immediately after the wedding?

However, seeing that both his young master and Zhu Qianying seemed to think that this arrangement was perfectly natural and acceptable, he closed his mouth and did not dare to say anything more.

Zhu Qianying returned to the Yan Family, got in bed after a bath, but felt no sleepiness. She pulled out her phone and gave Qi Xiao a call.

She had wanted to make this call for a long time. However, for the past two days, she had been accompanying her grandmother and others closely during the day, and essentially was with Yan Bo at night. Certain things, she found inappropriate to bring up in front of elders or Yan Bo.

“Qi Xiao, do you have any idea why my parents have been behaving so unusually?”

They had been unbelievably peaceful at the wedding, and even these past few days after she had officially married into the Yan family. Her mother was living alone in a rented apartment and had not experienced any harassment or threats. This tranquility was rather unexpected.

Yet this peaceful tranquility did not make her feel at ease. There was a vague sense of foreboding, as if some great conspiracy was brewing.

“I haven’t heard anything about it. Perhaps, the power of the Yan and Ji Families is too great, your father and brother dare not offend them?”

Qi Xiao hadn’t received any news on his end, so he could only make guesses based on the surface conditions.

“I hope so…”

If that was indeed the case, Zhu Qianying would be more than happy.

But she was afraid, afraid that behind the calm was a brewing storm.

“I’ll inquire about it, and we’ll talk later.”

Qi Xiao understood Zhu Qianying’s worries. After chatting casually for a few moments, he hung up the phone and went to inquire on her behalf.

After hanging up the phone, Zhu Qianying lay in bed thinking back to her parents’ behavior at the wedding, trying to pick up on any clues. But until her phone rang, she couldn’t come up with any reasons.

As for the phone call, Yan Bo hadn’t mentioned it, hence she didn’t know whether it was a private number or what. For the past few days, she hadn’t heard the phone ring at all. After hesitating for a moment, she answered the phone.

“Ying’er, your mother-in-law is here. Do you want to come down or should I ask her to come upstairs to find you?” On the other end of the line it was Uncle Hai.

“I’ll be right down!”

Every day for the past few days, Chen Jing had been visiting the Yan Family, bringing snacks or homemade soup. Yan Bo and his wife had invited her to move in several times, but she had always declined.

“Mom, with this kind of weather, you should go out less, and take a good rest at home.”

To Zhu Qianying, her mother had been fortunate enough to have a few peaceful days away from the Zhu Family, there was no need for her to revert to old habits, looking after her and the Yan Family every day.

“Ying’er, I’m bored being alone, it’s nice to get out and about every day, and bring some food for you guys.”

Chen Jing stood up and pulled her daughter over to sit next to her. Compared to before, she was looking better, apparently due to a change in mood.

“We’ve invited you to come live with us for a few days, and you don’t want to. Why do you have to run back and forth every day?”

Zhu Qianying didn’t dislike her mother visiting, she simply felt sorry for her.

Chen Jing looked around. The vast living room was empty except for the mother and daughter.

“Ying’er, it’s not that I don’t want to be with you, I just don’t want to cause trouble.” Chen Jing said in a lowered voice.

Zhu Qianying had no retort.

Currently, Yan Bo and his wife wouldn’t mind her mother at all, but as for Yan Bo himself, she really wasn’t sure.

Generally speaking, the fact that he would respectfully call his own mother “mom” rather than “Mr. Zhu” like he would with his deadbeat dad, was already surprising to Zhu Qianying.

“I’m content living this way now. I get to see you every day, and I can visit Xiao Yu in R City on weekends. I never dared to dream of such comfortable days before!”

When mentioning the past, Chen Jing sighed heavily.

After getting married, Zhu Qianying had intended to tell her mother about the property she bought in the other province, and decide what to do with it based on her mother’s advice.

Looking at it now, even if she told her, her mom probably wouldn’t want to go that far to live her life.

Of course, when buying the house, she never expected her mother to have a great epiphany and leave the Zhu Family for good before her wedding. If she had known, there would have been no need to buy the house.

Now, it’s unlikely that her mother will want to leave her and Xiao Yu. The house can be considered an investment for now.

“Mmm, as long as you’re happy, mom!”

Now that Zhu Qianying was married, this was the first time she and her mother were alone together. Chen Jing had held back some topics for a few days and now that there was no one around; she finally brought them up.

“Ying’er, are you really pregnant?”

Chen Jing leaned in to her ear and lowered her voice as much as she could.

Zhu Qianying made a face and then shook her head, “Don’t listen to Yan Bo’s nonsense.”

Chen Jing’s face changed a little, “It’s fake? Did he misunderstand or…”

“He did it on purpose!” Regarding this matter, Zhu Qianying didn’t want to lie to her mom.

She even considered telling Yan Bo’s parents about the truth in the next couple of days. The elderly couple were extremely nice to her, and she couldn’t bring herself to deceive them.

Chen Jing looked stunned and worried.

“On purpose? Why?”

Chen Jing was somewhat afraid—would Yan Bo deliberately set a smoke screen to harm her daughter?

She knew that most wealthy families were very concerned about their heirs. The elders of the Yan and Tong Families seemed to have the same concerns.

In recent days, the elders had been showing great affection for her daughter. If they found out that this was nothing but a beautiful lie and blamed her daughter, wouldn’t that make her an unforgivable sinner?

Seeing that her mother seemed worried, Zhu Qianying guessed she had misunderstood the situation.

“Mom, you’re overthinking. Things aren’t as complicated as you think. He only came up with this excuse because he was worried the elders would make things difficult for me.”

Yet, even after her daughter explained, Chen Jing was still worried. She hesitated a bit longer, and then started talking again.

“But what if there’s still no child after a few months? How are you going to keep up the lie?”

Zhu Qianying was worried about that too.

But she couldn’t let her mom know that. She could only pat her mom’s shoulder reassuringly and say,

“Mom, we’re so young that having a child shouldn’t be hard. Besides, even if we don’t conceive right away, someone as resourceful as Yan Bo will surely find a way to save face.”

Seeing her daughter’s nonchalant expression, Chen Jing let out a sigh.

“I really don’t know whether to say that you two are reckless or optimistic. Can’t you tell what can be said and what can’t be?”
