Chapter 138 Mother Comes to Beijing
Chapter 138 Mother Comes to Beijing
An Xiaoyue hesitated, unsure of what to do.
Perhaps she had been silent for too long, because the other person's voice came through the phone again.
"It's alright. When you can eat a lot, your aunt will make you more delicious food, besides flower cakes."
Upon hearing this, An Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, thank you, Auntie."
After a pleasant conversation, during the ensuing silence, Mrs. Ji finally remembered the purpose of her phone call.
"My son, Ji Yubai, has been going to Fu Garden frequently lately. Have you seen him?"
"I've seen it before; the strawberries he sent were delicious." She especially loves eating strawberries during the Spring Festival.
She thought that only the very first time Ji Yubai sent someone to deliver the strawberries, but later she found out that all the strawberries she ate were also sent by Ji Yubai. Ji Yubai even said that they were freshly picked and eaten.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ji became excited again, "Strawberries are delicious too! That's wonderful, I love you so much!"
Such a discerning eater, such an appreciative child, and a girl at that—she truly cherishes her.
"Yes, it's big and red, delicious, and looks good in photos. Thank you, President Ji." Since it was Fu Shengyang's business to give her the gift, she should thank him.
"It's alright, it's alright. You like the strawberries I grew. I'll have Yu Bai deliver them to you next season."
After talking with the other party for so long, An Xiaoyue had figured out some of the tricks of the trade.
Aunt Ji makes all kinds of pastries and grows fruits. She can chat so frankly with people she has just met. She must be a person who is loved and protected very well and lives a carefree life.
Aunt Ji was very pleased that the fruits of her labor were appreciated. Rather than saying thank you, she accepted the gift.
Having figured all this out, An Xiaoyue stopped being coy and readily agreed, "Then I thank you in advance, Auntie. When Sheng Yang has time, I will visit you and tour your garden and orchard."
"Yes, yes, I'd love to hear that." After saying that, Madam Ji realized that she had steered the conversation off course again.
"Girl, tell your aunt the truth, is Yu Bai in a relationship?"
Boom~
An Xiaoyue felt as if a thunderclap had sounded above her head.
Mrs. Ji continued speaking.
"This kid's been acting strange lately. A while ago, he was all smiles, and even when the old man scolded him, he just smiled and took it. After a while, he became listless, like a wilted eggplant. But these past two days, he's all cheerful again. This is so abnormal; he must be in love. They broke up a while ago, but they're back together now. That must be it."
Madam Ji spoke at length, and An Xiaoyue had no choice but to listen.
Even Ji Yubai, the person involved and his own son, hadn't told his aunt about Ji Yubai and Lingxi's affair. So how could she politely refuse?
An Xiaoyue was forced to knock on the bathroom door.
She had just raised her hand when the door was pulled open.
An Xiaoyue's eyes shone with hope as if she had found a savior.
She covered her phone and whispered, "Aunt Ji asked if Mr. Ji is in a relationship?"
After saying that, she tossed the phone back into Fu Shengyang's hand as if it were a hot potato.
Fu Shengyang laughed at her, "It's just a phone call, why are you so scared?"
An Xiaoyue ignored him and ran back to bed.
"Aunt, it's me."
Fu Shengyang's voice came through the phone intermittently.
"Yes, she is my wife, her name is Xiaoyue, An Xiaoyue."
"He likes a girl, but she's currently focused on her career and isn't interested in a romantic relationship."
An Xiaoyue clicked her tongue in amazement. Fu Shengyang had just told Aunt Ji so bluntly!
If Aunt Ji knew, would she be like those rich mothers in TV dramas, finding Lingxi, writing her a check, and telling Lingxi to stay far away from Ji Yubai?
An Xiaoyue didn't know if Aunt Ji would do that.
But if Aunt Ji really did that, Lingxi would be very happy.
From then on, Ji Yubai would never appear in her life again, nor would he disrupt her career plans.
Of course, An Xiaoyue never heard anything about Ji Yubai from Zhong Lingxi again.
An Xiaoyue thought that Ji Yubai was probably just like Lingxi's ex-boyfriends who she dated for a week, and had been relegated to the sidelines.
Time flies, and April has passed in the blink of an eye. An Xiaoyue has officially entered the late stage of pregnancy.
At the end of April, she learned that her mother would be coming to Beijing during the May Day holiday, and her anxious and expectant heart never stopped fantasizing.
She's going to have a father, and a whole family of relatives.
But will Academician Leng acknowledge her and accept her as his granddaughter?
Will the outside world really not have any impact on my uncle?
An Xiaoyue's emotions reached their peak the moment she stood in the VIP passage at the airport.
Her palms were sweating as Fu Shengyang held her hand.
Fu Shengyang took out a handkerchief and wiped away her sticky sweat, comforting her.
"The plane has landed, and they will come out soon. Once they are out, they will get in the car and we will go to the Leng family together."
"Your uncle must have made preparations, don't be nervous or afraid, your uncle is here for you." As he spoke, Fu Shengyang patted her head, "I will always be with you."
An Xiaoyue said pitifully, "But I'm just nervous."
Fu Shengyang smiled and said, "Then be nervous."
His smile made An Xiaoyue smile too.
