Chapter 850: Chapter 891: Little Yifei, Big Personality
Xu Yingying did not get as angry as Li Yifei had imagined, but gently said, "Wasn’t it always Xin’er’s mom who accompanied you before? Why do you want mom to go with her too? Is it because your dad always teaches you this?"
Li Yifei felt a twinge of guilt, as Xu Yingying was clearly trying to coax words out of Little Yifei.
Little Yifei blinked and said, "No, I just feel that mom treats me well, and so does Xin’er’s mom. It would be fun for us all to go together."
Xu Yingying stroked Little Yifei’s head and said, "Mom has some business at the company and cannot go with you tomorrow. Let Xin’er’s mom accompany you, and maybe mom can join you next time, okay?"
"Okay!" Little Yifei tenderly touched Xu Yingying’s face and crisply said, "Mom, don’t argue with dad; it scares me."
Xu Yingying’s face flushed with embarrassment, realizing she had not considered her daughter’s feelings. She quickly apologized, "Sorry, mom won’t argue with your dad anymore."
"Oh yeah!" Little Yifei cheered, excitedly told Li Yifei, "Dad, mom’s not angry anymore; I fixed it for you, the rest is up to you." Then she jumped out of Xu Yingying’s embrace and ran out, even thoughtfully closing the door behind her.
Li Yifei and Xu Yingying looked at each other, neither expecting Little Yifei to be so precocious.
"Humph, did you teach her that?" Xu Yingying gave Li Yifei a big eye roll.
"Not at all! I never expected she could say something like that; the kid’s become quite sly now."
"Don’t think just because our daughter stepped in, I’ll let you off."
Li Yifei, seeing Xu Yingying huffing, suddenly sat next to her with a grin.
Xu Yingying immediately moved away a bit and warily asked, "Why are you smiling?"
Li Yifei’s smile deepened, "I’m just happy. My wife is starting to act more like a wife, getting jealous now."
"Who... who’s jealous?" Xu Yingying was mortified, recalling her recent behavior that indeed seemed jealous. But she quickly stiffened her neck and said, "Anyway, I’m your wife by law. If you mess around and others find out, wouldn’t that be embarrassing? Of course, I have to keep you in check."
"Alright, alright, I hope my wife supervises and keeps me in check more," Li Yifei said with a beaming smile.
"Don’t smile like that; I... I still don’t see you as my husband. Who let you into my room? Get out!" Xu Yingying, feeling unable to face Li Yifei, forcefully pushed him out.
"Having fun, all sorted out?" Xu Shanshan asked with a smile.
"I helped, so of course mom could handle it," Little Yifei proudly said.
Once back, they couldn’t ignore everyone else in the family. It was Xu Shanshan who brought it up, and everyone went together.
When they knocked, the door quickly opened. Chu Xiaoyao opened the door, and upon seeing Li Yifei, she excitedly yelled "Uncle!" and almost jumped on him but restrained herself, noticing Xu Yingying beside him. She pouted secretly but couldn’t hide her delight.
"Uncle, happy new year, Sister Yingying, happy new year, Sister Shan."
Little Yifei immediately said, "Xiaoyao sister, Gong Xi Fa Cai, hand over the red packet." She stretched out her little hand.
The address was chaotic, causing Xu Yingying to frown slightly, but Little Yifei had already drawn everyone’s attention.
Chu Xiaoyao giggled and said, "I’ve prepared yours already, I’ll go get it now." She ran inside, shouting, "Yiyi, Sister Yunzhu, Sister Xiaofei, Sister Xin’er, Uncle and everyone are here!"
Soon everyone came out, and they exchanged New Year greetings. Ye Yunzhu and the others had prepared big red packets for Little Yifei.
Li Yifei met several people’s gazes, Meng Xiaofei was fine, but from Ye Yunzhu, he sensed longing as her due date approached and he couldn’t be by her side properly. From Su Yiyi, he felt deep yearning and care, without any resentment, yet these looks made Li Yifei feel even more uneasy and indebted. Ning Xin’er’s look was normal, sharing a sweet smile with Li Yifei, as she had finally achieved her relationship with him and was content not to expect more like Ye Yunzhu.
Ye Yunzhu and Su Yiyi quickly diverted their gazes and started playing with Little Yifei with the red packets, making Li Yifei feel a bit better.
Little Yifei immediately excitedly opened the red envelope and spread all the money out on the floor. The little girl had no concept of money, but the sight of so much still made her very happy.
Xu Yingying then said, "Your red envelopes are really too generous."
Each person’s red envelope contained five thousand yuan, totaling twenty-five thousand. The little girl spread them out one by one, covering a large area of the living room floor, which was really too eye-catching.
Ye Yunzhu lay back on the sofa, her hand on her belly, and said, "Children just want to have some festive fun."
Chu Xiaoyao also said with a giggly smile, "Exactly, exactly, money is not a problem for us."
Meng Xiaofei then said with a pained expression, "You all are bad people, there goes my month’s salary."
Xu Yingying remembered Meng Xiaofei very clearly and laughed, saying, "You girl, why are you even competing? Let Yifei be happy for now, I’ll give you some money later."
Meng Xiaofei stuck out her tongue and said with a giggle, "I was just joking, I have my annual bonus too, I can afford it. If you give me money, it would be meaningless, and besides, I’ve been mooching off food, drinks, and even a place to stay, not being generous with Little Yifei’s New Year’s money would be shameless of me."
At this point, Meng Xiaofei stuck out her tongue again and said with a grimacing face, "Brother Li, during the big New Year, none of us had much to eat, could you please whip up something special tonight? I’m dying for a good meal."
Ye Yunzhu immediately scolded, "You mischievous girl, hasn’t Yiyi cooked delicious meals for you every day? You’re making Yiyi feel bad."
Meng Xiaofei hugged Su Yiyi’s shoulders, laughing as she said, "I’m just thinking Yiyi has been working too hard these past few days. Now that Brother Li is here, it’s a good chance for Yiyi to take a break."
Li Yifei quickly said, "No problem, I’ll cook you all a great meal tonight."
Feeling guilty towards everyone, Li Yifei could only try to make it up in this way. After chatting with everyone for a bit, he went straight to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves, and after more than two hours of frying and cooking, he finally prepared a full table of dishes.
Initially, Xu Yingying found it strange how familiar Li Yifei was with this place, but remembering how he had taken care of her when she was unconscious, she understood it, plus being so familiar with everyone was quite normal.
With so many people eating together, and all being young, along with Little Yifei as the happy fruit, the atmosphere was indescribably lively.
Throughout, Xu Yingying kept an eye on the interactions between Li Yifei and Ning Xin’er, but felt that aside from the occasional glance and some lukewarm conversations, and seeing Ning Xin’er spending more time with her daughter, she didn’t feel anything notable.
The meal felt like a New Year’s Eve dinner; everyone ate joyfully. Apart from Ye Yunzhu, the pregnant woman, the others even had some alcohol, and it wasn’t until around eight o’clock that everyone, satisfied with food and drink, returned to the living room to chat.
At that time, Xu Yingying took the initiative to tell Ning Xin’er, "Ning Xin’er, Yifei will be visiting relatives tomorrow, so he’ll need you to go along."
As soon as she said this, the living room fell silent. Everyone stared at Xu Yingying, unsure of what exactly this meant. They all longed for the time when interactions with Li Yifei were close and intimate, and this restrained feeling was truly torturous.
Ning Xin’er composed herself and said, "Ah, I’m really sorry for causing such a big mix-up."
Xu Yingying, now showcasing her graceful demeanour, said, "It’s alright; at the end of the day, you are Yifei’s mother. It’s normal for you both to go together, I’m not that petty."
Ning Xin’er gave a slight smile and said, "Thank you so much, it’s all for the sake of the child. I’m really grateful that you don’t blame me."
Xu Yingying, still embodying a classy aura, said, "I understand, the child is innocent. I wouldn’t let the child have a bad childhood."
Xu Yingying then said, "I’ve prepared everything for you, it’s all in the car, you can just take it tomorrow."
Ning Xin’er nodded and said, "Okay."
As the two talked, Xu Yingying came across as very assertive. Although it wasn’t explicitly stated, her status as Li Yifei’s wife was evident, and Ning Xin’er showed a respect for Xu Yingying, which pleased Xu Yingying, reducing her hostility towards Ning Xin’er significantly.
Seeing the two interact this way, everyone understood that Xu Yingying had not yet regained her memory. This disappointed them, but there was nothing they could do. They wondered when Xu Yingying would regain her memory and again become the affectionate sister to everyone, enabling them to be lovingly together with Li Yifei.
