Chapter 398: 362 Married a Wife and Forgot His Mother_2

Both these kids are pretty clever; they must have realized they were in a strange place, which is why they refused to sleep.

"Look at this little Elf Spirit, once he’s in your hands, he stops fussing." Chu Qing couldn’t help but laugh and cry as she watched Dabao quiet down.

The moment their mother returned, she knew it all, isn’t that just like a little Elf Spirit?

Xiaofeng smiled, her face beaming with maternal radiance. She watched Dabao, well-fed and content, drift off to sleep and gently placed him in the crib before picking up Xiaobao.

"Did you have fun tonight?" Chu Qing asked Xiaofeng.

When it came to the evening’s events, Xiaonian had plenty to talk about and began to share Xiaofeng’s heroic deeds with Chu Qing: "Mom, you have no idea. At first, everyone looked down on my sister, saying she was just a country girl with no experience, but then she shocked everyone, blinding them with her brilliance. In the end, each of them was shooting complicated glances at my sister, as though they couldn’t believe it."

"I’m not that impressive, I just picked up a few tricks from following Ye Cheng around. I wouldn’t be confident to save someone on my own. It was sheer luck tonight that I managed to save someone by a fluke. If I hadn’t succeeded, tonight’s incident could have implicated all of you." Tonight’s game had been aimed at her from the start.

If not for the Golden Finger she possessed, she couldn’t have saved Yu Shuiling. And if she hadn’t saved Yu Shuiling, she naturally would have become the target of public criticism.

"We’re all family, what’s this talk about implicating each other?" Chu Qing felt genuinely worried for Xiaofeng after hearing Xiaonian mention the incident.

Chu Qing was good to her, and of course, Xiaofeng understood that it was all because of Ye Cheng. Otherwise, why would someone take her in as a goddaughter out of the blue and let her stay here without any conditions?

...

At the Gu Family, the Prime Minister scrutinized his son with a serious expression: "The Xu Family again asked me today about your marriage plans with Xu Xuezi. What are your own thoughts on this matter?"

"Dad, you don’t need to worry about this; I have my own arrangements."

"You should at least share your plans with me."

"Of course, I won’t marry her, but I can still toy with her a bit. They’re just confident about my ill health and think they can manipulate me." Ye Cheng dismissed: "I too have something over them."

After saying this, Ye Cheng smiled softly, his expression unruffled.

"What do you have on them?" The Prime Minister frowned, increasingly unable to see through his son’s ways of handling matters. Xu Chengye was known as the crafty old fox precisely because he was meticulous in his dealings, leaving others no handle to grip.

The Prime Minister certainly didn’t believe it when Acheng said he had something on them.

Not to mention Yecheng, even he himself would find it hard to catch Xu Chengye slipping up.

"Dad, after all, it’s a matter between Xu Xuezi and me, the younger generation; it needn’t escalate to feuds. If you and grandfather have time, you can visit the Quan Family to see the babies. As for my situation, I have my own way of handling it."

He had his reasons for dragging out the situation.

"You know," speaking of the boy and girl twins, the Prime Minister indeed felt like visiting: "How about we invite the old Quan Family over for dinner tonight?"

While they were talking, the butler reported: "Young master, the Quan Family has sent word that they will come to pay their New Year’s respects to Old Master Gu tomorrow morning, and tomorrow night the Yu Family has invited them over for dinner."

Ye Cheng nodded his head: "I got it."

The Prime Minister was even more confused: "Why is the Yu Family inviting old Quan for dinner something they need to tell us?"

"Dad, you’ve got a wife, and your son needs to find one too." Yecheng curved his lips in a smile: "I have to figure out a way to bring you a daughter-in-law home, don’t I?"

Prime Minister: "...."

Could it be that he really was getting old, unable to understand the ways of the younger generation anymore?

Xiaofeng managed to get both kids to sleep and glanced at Xiaonian, who was sharing the bed with her. She felt rather helpless as Xiaonian had clamored to help put the kids to bed but ended up falling asleep deeper than the two babies.

She stood on the balcony, taking in the night view that belonged to the Imperial Capital.

It had to be said that the Quan Family’s house was positioned quite high, allowing her to see a great distance from the balcony.

These next few days, she planned to wander the streets and alleys of the Imperial Capital to look for business opportunities.

She wanted to establish a firm footing in the Imperial Capital; relying solely on the Quan and Gu families wouldn’t cut it. She had to depend on herself.

Besides, the kids weren’t Ye Cheng’s. Whether Ye Cheng’s family and his thoughts would change in the future was unclear.

Using a modern woman’s words, a woman feels secure when her phone is charged, her car tank is full, and she’s firmly grasping the steering wheel.

Ye Cheng was good to her, and she had begun to develop feelings for him as well. But whether the two of them could end up together wasn’t up to her or to Ye Cheng; time would tell.
