Chapter 474: Chapter 484: Together

Even if Ning Xin’er no longer aspired to be a big star, she was still in the public eye. Li Yifei didn’t want to draw too much attention, and fearing that there were numerous paparazzi lurking at the neighborhood entrance, he decided to apply some makeup on Ning Xin’er before they left the house together.

After they stepped outside, Li Yifei discovered that the paparazzi weren’t just outside the complex, but also within it. Although Ning Xin’er hadn’t acted in many productions, her popularity was quite high, and she attracted considerable attention.

Ning Xin’er was in high spirits today, and as soon as they came out, she took Li Yifei’s arm, which made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"What’s with that expression? Does it bother you that I’m holding your arm?" Ning Xin’er raised her eyebrows in displeasure and pinched Li Yifei.

Li Yifei gave a dry laugh and said, "Indeed, I’m not quite used to it."

"You’ll get used to it eventually." Ning Xin’er didn’t dwell too much on the issue. She was aware that although they had a daughter together, their past interactions hadn’t been pleasant. Even if she harbored special feelings for Li Yifei, her efforts were initially one-sided. Now, their relationship hinged solely on their daughter. To truly harmonize with Li Yifei, she’d have to put in more effort.

Ning Xin’er was a very persistent girl. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have secretly had Li Yifei’s child—requiring great courage. Now that she had resolved to be with Li Yifei, she was prepared to make significant changes for him, something not just anyone could do.

Today, Chu Xiaoyao had completely defected, no longer sticking to Li Yifei as she used to. She was on the other side, holding hands with Ning Xin’er and walking with her head held high. Li Yifei, watching this with barely concealed amusement, couldn’t understand the mentality of fans, but Chu Xiaoyao’s behavior was probably what a true fan would look like.

They went grocery shopping, cooked, and then had their meal. The three of them managed to coexist peacefully, even warmly. Li Yifei had to admit, rather surprised, that although Ning Xin’er’s cooking wasn’t as good as his, it wasn’t bad at all.

After the meal, Li Yifei went downstairs alone and called Xu Yingying. He had to discuss this matter with Xu Yingying, after all, she was his wife.

"Honey, I’m in Capital City, and I’ve found my daughter." Li Yifei didn’t hide anything and just came out with it.

Xu Yingying fell silent for a moment before saying, "Then bring your daughter back home. I’ll treat her as if she were my own, and I definitely won’t let her be wronged."

Li Yifei immediately explained the situation in detail to Xu Yingying, who listened quietly until he finished. Then she said, "So... are you planning to be with Ning Xin’er?"

Li Yifei sighed, "Honey, there’s no such feeling between Ning Xin’er and me, but our daughter is indeed ours. I must give her a normal family, whether it be with me or with Ning Xin’er. Therefore, I need some time to establish my role as her father."

"What you mean is, you don’t want to be with Ning Xin’er?" Xu Yingying’s tone became much more urgent.

"Yes, what we are doing now is all for the child’s sake. I’ve also made it clear to her that once we settle the question of who the child will be with, I will come back. If the daughter comes with me, I hope you won’t be angry."

Without any hesitation, Xu Yingying responded, "No! I absolutely won’t be angry. Your daughter is my daughter, and I will treat her as such."

Li Yifei was deeply moved and said, "Honey, thank you."

"Thank me for what? I’m your wife. Shouldn’t such matters between husband and wife be taken for granted, without needing a word of thanks?"

"Yes!" Li Yifei didn’t say much more, now realizing more than ever that Xu Yingying embodied the virtues of traditional women. He appreciated his wife even more and longed to be with her.

"Then take good care of our daughter. Don’t worry about things back home; I’m waiting for you to return."

"All right, I will definitely come back," Li Yifei replied very firmly.

When he returned to Ning Xin’er’s place, both Ning Xin’er and Chu Xiaoyao had already taken their baths and were chatting on the sofa. Chu Xiaoyao looked excited, likely because she had established a good relationship with Ning Xin’er. Li Yifei also noticed that Chu Xiaoyao’s sadness from losing her parents seemed to have diminished a lot due to her time with Ning Xin’er.

"Yifei, go take a shower," Ning Xin’er got up with a smile and said, "I’ve prepared the towel and change of clothes for you."

Li Yifei nodded and entered the bathroom with a smile. Even though Ning Xin’er was very nice to him now, he still didn’t feel that spark. To put it bluntly, there was no electricity.

Ning Xin’er’s home was quite large - a three-bedroom, two-living room, and two-bathroom apartment of over 130 square meters. In a place like Capital City, such a house could easily cost millions.

After showering, Li Yifei sat in the living room with Ning Xin’er and Chu Xiaoyao for a while. He still didn’t have much to say to Ning Xin’er, with their daughter being the only common topic. Ning Xin’er knew this and brought out their daughter’s photo album to share with Li Yifei.

Looking at the sequence of photos of his daughter from birth until now felt like watching her grow up. Li Yifei felt a warm sentiment, yet regret pervaded him for not having watched her grow up and not having cared for her in person. Even if he could make up for it in the future, the time that had passed was already lost.

When it was past ten, Ning Xin’er closed the photo album and said, "It’s getting late. Let’s call it a night; tomorrow we have to pick up our daughter."

Li Yifei nodded in agreement but didn’t know which room he should sleep in.

Ning Xin’er smiled and pointed to a bedroom, saying, "That’s my bedroom. Are you going to sleep with me tonight?"

Chu Xiaoyao immediately said, "Of course, you should, uncle. I won’t sleep with you tonight, lest I interfere. I’ll sleep alone, and join you again tomorrow night."

Ning Xin’er’s face turned red at first, and then she said to Chu Xiaoyao in surprise, "Are you planning to sleep with us in the future?"

"Of course, Sister Yiyi and I always sleep with the uncle," Chu Xiaoyao said proudly with her chin up.

Ning Xin’er’s face darkened as she glared at Li Yifei and said, "You really live a licentious life."

Li Yifei really couldn’t explain this. Even if he said that he didn’t do anything even though he slept with Su Yiyi and Chu Xiaoyao, Ning Xin’er probably wouldn’t believe him.

Li Yifei shook his head and said, "Forget it, I’ll sleep alone tonight."

Ning Xin’er snorted and said, "What, you lead such a wanton life at home, but now you’re pretending to be shy when you come to my place?"

Li Yifei had no choice but to say, "Xin’er, give me some time, please. I need some time to adapt."

Ning Xin’er rolled her eyes at Li Yifei and said, "You think I’m that kind of cheap woman? Hmph, it’s not that easy to get into my bed, even though I’ve given birth to a daughter for you."

Li Yifei laughed awkwardly and quickly slipped into the adjacent bedroom.

Ning Xin’er looked at Chu Xiaoyao and asked, "Are you going to sleep with your uncle tonight?"

"No need, I’ll sleep with Sister Xin’er," Chu Xiaoyao immediately wrapped her arm around Ning Xin’er.

Ning Xin’er nodded in satisfaction and said, "Let’s go."

Lying in bed, Ning Xin’er said to Chu Xiaoyao, "Xiaoyao, do you really support me being with your uncle?"

"Of course I support you, a hundred, a thousand times over!" Chu Xiaoyao promptly nodded vehemently.

"That’s good, you’ll have to be on my side from now on. I’ve promised you that if Yifei and I get together, I’ll let you join us. If you stand with me, others might not agree to let you."

"Yes, yes, I’ll definitely stand with you. Whatever you tell me to do, I’ll do it. Shall we both go to uncle’s room and give them a ***? Uncle might not say it, but he definitely likes that kind of thing," Chu Xiaoyao said, sounding a bit annoyed.

Ning Xin’er instantly felt a headache. She had never let another man touch her all these years, which already proved that she was a woman of integrity. The last time she stayed in that villa with Li Yifei, she felt torn inside when she wanted to seek him out. Chu Xiaoyao’s suggestion made it even harder for her to accept.

With a light cough to cover up her embarrassment, Ning Xin’er then said, "Xiaoyao, is that all you three ever do?"

"No way, even though we three sleep on the same bed, uncle has never touched me, you know. Even when he is with Sister Yiyi, it’s only when I’m asleep that he sneakily does anything," Chu Xiaoyao responded.

Ning Xin’er’s eyes widened in surprise and asked, "He hasn’t touched you?"

"Yeah, I’m still a virgin. This darn uncle, he refuses to touch me no matter how I seduce him. He’s made up his mind not to."

Ning Xin’er narrowed her eyes, thinking how this was more like the Li Yifei she remembered. Although she always teased him, it was actually a form of temptation. She wanted Li Yifei to invade her again like he had once lost his temper, but Li Yifei hadn’t laid a finger on her since then.

"Xiaoyao, you’re so young, why did you fall for this guy?" asked Ning Xin’er curiously. After all, Li Yifei was a good eight years older than Ning Xin’er, and as a young girl, she didn’t seem to have much in common with him.

"I don’t know. I just like uncle, and I’m really happy when I’m with him."

Ning Xin’er continued to inquire, "You’re so beautiful, there must be a lot of guys chasing you, right?"

"Those boys are nothing compared to uncle. Just like you, Sister Xin’er, you’re a big star, but you still like uncle."

That left Ning Xin’er speechless. It seemed true that by status, she was much higher than Li Yifei, but for his sake, she had even borne a child.
