Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Xiaobei, are you being naughty again?

Hearing Shen Mianmian’s words, He Nan felt a pang of heartache, "What should I do with you?"

"Big Brother He, meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life. As long as our family is together, that’s already the best for me," Shen Mianmian said.

He Nan tightened his grip on her hands, "I’ll listen to you on other matters, but when it comes to shares, you must listen to me. They’re part of the bride price, and you can’t just refuse them."

Seeing his determination, Shen Mianmian didn’t continue to argue with him.

They embraced for a while before getting back into the car and heading home.

He Xiaobei had already woken up and was playing in the yard with Yang Xiaoxi; Ruan Yiqian had left earlier because he had something to deal with.

Cheng Feiyang looked like he had a headache as he watched the big and the little one in the yard. Upon seeing Shen Mianmian and He Nan return, he looked as if he had seen saviors, "You’re finally back. I’m nearly dead from their antics."

Shen Mianmian chuckled, "Xiaobei, have you been mischievous again?"

"No," He Xiaobei shook his head, "I just asked Uncle Cheng a few questions. Uncle Cheng is just feeling guilty."

Yang Xiaoxi nodded in agreement, "That’s right, Xiaobei knows about my relationship with Feiyang, so he just wanted to test him a bit."

Shen Mianmian was a bit puzzled, "Test what?"

"I just asked Uncle Cheng about his past relationships, like when he started liking godmother and if he liked any other girls before he met her," He Xiaobei reasoned, "I have to prevent godmother from meeting a scumbag and guard her well."

"What did you find out?" Shen Mianmian laughed.

Before He Xiaobei could speak, Yang Xiaoxi spoke up angrily, "We did find out something. There are many things that don’t add up. There’s also that scandal he had with Fu Yu which he hasn’t given a proper explanation for."

Fu Yu was a female star who had worked with Cheng Feiyang last year. At the time, they had filmed the drama "Falling Like Rain," and rumors surfaced about them being spotted together at a hotel, complete with photographed evidence. Back then, Yang Xiaoxi just snorted and didn’t take it seriously, as it was common for celebrities to be caught up in rumors. Cheng Feiyang had clarified at the time, saying they just happened to be staying in the same hotel and ran into each other by chance when leaving. Now, upon reflection, Yang Xiaoxi felt something was amiss.

Anyway, before they started dating, she didn’t care about these things. But after they became a couple, just hearing those rumors made her feel uncomfortable, as though her heart was steeped in acid.

"I’m innocent," Cheng Feiyang was speechless, "It really was a coincidence back then. Moreover, it’s been over a year. Accounting for things after autumn is a bit unfair, don’t you think?"

"Do you have any evidence that it was just a coincidence?" Yang Xiaoxi glared at him.

"If there had been anything between us, wouldn’t you all have known by now?" Cheng Feiyang was clearly frustrated, "Besides, Fu Yu is in a relationship now, everyone in the circle knows that. Probably before long, they’ll make an official announcement."

"You have a girlfriend now too," Yang Xiaoxi persisted, "But that doesn’t cover up the fact that there was something between you and Fu Yu in the past."

Cheng Feiyang felt besieged by the questioning.

Shen Mianmian seemed to understand that Yang Xiaoxi was spilling her jealousy, so she said, "Xiaoxi, I can testify for Feiyang, he definitely had nothing with Fu Yu."

Yang Xiaoxi stamped her foot, "Mianmian, why are you speaking up for him?"

"I’m not speaking up for him, I understand his character." Cheng Feiyang had been fond of Yang Xiaoxi for so many years; others might not know, but Shen Mianmian was crystal clear about it.
