Chapter 256 I Never Doubted You

Having a daughter doesn't make him inferior, and he has no preference for sons over daughters.

But when faced with his son and daughter, Pei Muyi felt that he was definitely biased towards his daughter.

Even though he doesn't have a daughter yet.

He couldn't explain why, but he always felt that if there was a soft little girl who looked seven or eight parts like Lin Xiyin, wouldn't he cherish her like the apple of his eye?

After Pei Muye took Lin Xiyin away, Huo Xianyang said to Xiao Ruoyi, "Don't even think about arranging a marriage between our children. I think if Lin Xiyin gives birth to a daughter, Pei Muye will treat her like an ancestor."

"So, you can't get married if you're destined to be an ancestor? We call it 'being close to the water tower and getting the moon first'," Xiao Ruoyi said. "Besides, can he really make decisions about the children?"

Huo Xianyang thought about it and agreed.

With Lin Xiyin around, Pei Muye can't make the decision.

Thinking about myself again, I sighed.

In any case, Pei Muyi has at least obtained a legal status, and he's about to hold a wedding and probably will get his marriage certificate soon.

Unlike him, who now has a child but still has no official status or recognition.

In a word, it was terrible.

However, Huo Xianyang is quite good at comforting himself.

Regardless, Xiao Ruoyi and their child are now by his side, so in another sense, he is a winner in life.

There are so many people in this world who cannot obtain what they desire or love.

What more could he want?

On the way back, Pei Muyi told Lin Xiyin, "We will not arrange a marriage between our children with Huo Xianyang."

Lin Xiyin said, "There's no way to determine it, Yiyi gave birth to a son."

“I’m talking about the future,” Pei Muye said. “If we have a daughter, we won’t be engaged to him.”

Lin Xiyin laughed and said, "That's just a rumor."

"It's uncertain anyway."

"Why?" Lin Xiyin didn't expect him to be so resistant: "But before Yiyi was born, when she wanted to get engaged to Youyou, you didn't object."

"Youyou is a boy. If we arrange a marriage between our children, it will be her daughter marrying into our family."

Lin Xiyin understood.

This is because they are reluctant to let their daughter marry into that family.

She's already protecting the baby before it's even born.

In fact, Pei Muye has been very good to Lin Youxing. If it were a daughter, how good would he be?

Don't spoil them rotten.

Thinking about it this way, Lin Xiyin decided she didn't want to have children anymore.

Pei Muye spoils his child too much.

He always felt indebted to Lin Youxing, and basically always granted his requests.

But in reality, this is a form of spoiling children.

In particular, there is Qu Jianhang.

Whenever they have a conflict over how to raise their children, Qu Jianhang always sides with Pei Muyi.

She seemed very passive.

If we have another daughter, we might face the same problems then.

Moreover, Lin Xiyin suddenly realized that they hadn't asked their child's opinion about having a second child.

What if Lin Youxing is very resistant?

Lin Xiyin quickly told Pei Muye.

Pei Muye smiled and said, "Don't worry, Youyou and I have already discussed this topic."

"You asked him?" Lin Xiyin asked, somewhat surprised. "When? Why didn't you tell me?"

“After you asked for my opinion, I went to ask Youyou. Such a big matter definitely needs to be discussed with our son.” Pei Muye held her hand: “Don’t worry, Youyou is really looking forward to having a little sister.”

"I didn't know either," Lin Xiyin said. "You didn't remind me either. I should have talked to Yoyo too."

Pei Muye said, "You're so busy, always either at school or researching. How could I dare to bother you?"

His words were sarcastic.

Lin Xiyin knew he was dissatisfied, feeling that her work took up too much of his time, especially since it was a holiday.

Lin Xiyin said, "Whose fault is it? Once I'm resting, you're like a piece of chewing gum, I can't get rid of you. You have time to hold me and get into bed, but no time to talk to me about this?"

Pei Muye touched his nose, feeling a little guilty.

He wanted to monopolize all of Lin Xiyin's private time.

He didn't tell anyone that he seemed to have a bit of pre-wedding jitters.

I'm really looking forward to the wedding, but I'm also a little afraid of it.

Although he and Lin Xiyin are doing well now, for some reason, he always has these wild thoughts.

Will Lin Xiyin suddenly decide she doesn't want to get married one day?

Is there any possibility that Lin Xiyin might run away during the wedding?

He even thought that on their wedding day, he was dressed as the groom, but Lin Xiyin walked in front of everyone holding another man's hand.

They exchanged vows, kissed, and the ceremony was complete.

Pei Muye had a dream like this, and in the dream he was so anxious that he wanted to stab the man to death.

I woke up in a panic.

Lin Xiyin slept soundly in his arms.

He immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

I haven't had that dream since, but I still tend to have random thoughts.

He now regrets setting the wedding date for September.

Moreover, Lin Xiyin felt that a wedding ceremony was necessary before registering the marriage.

Thinking of this, Pei Muyi said, "Yinyin, let's go get our marriage certificate first."

"Huh?" Lin Xiyin was taken aback: "Didn't we agree to get it after the wedding?"

"I don't see any difference..."

"If there's no difference, why bring it up earlier?"

Pei Muye parked the car, unbuckled his seatbelt, and pulled her into his arms: "Yinyin, I'm always so insecure..."

Lin Xiyin asked curiously, "Why?"

"I'm afraid you won't marry me." Pei Muye finally said it: "I'm afraid you'll break off the engagement, afraid you'll run away..."

Lin Xiyin quickly said, "How could that be? What are you thinking about?"

“I can’t control myself,” Pei Muye said. “I’m always bothering you, aren’t you annoyed? But I can’t help it. We’re not married, so my heart can’t stay still…”

“You…” Lin Xiyin didn’t know what to say: “How could this be? I’ve never been fickle, so why are you so insecure? On the contrary, you have Qu Lianyi and Ming Qingwan, and I haven’t said anything about them.”

Pei Muye said, "I have nothing to do with them!"

I had warned Qu Lianyi's parents and Ming Qingwan before, telling them to behave themselves.

They even caused trouble.

Pei Muye could not tolerate it, so he had no choice but to use force to send them abroad.

In truth, for him, the emotional entanglement between these two people was an undeserved misfortune.

After all, he only ever had Lin Xiyin in his heart.

“But when I saw the photos and heard the audio, I was still sad,” Lin Xiyin said. “Even after I found out what happened, the sadness at the time was real. But I have never let you misunderstand anything, so what are you afraid of?”

Pei Muye said, "Yes, you haven't made me misunderstand, but Chi Tianlin is also eyeing you covetously, as is Li Xingzhi..."

"Stop!" Lin Xiyin said, feeling wronged. "Li Xingzhi already has a girlfriend!"

"And there's Chi Tianlin's too!"

This is a thorn in Pei Muye's side.

If Chi Tianlin had competed with him fairly, he probably wouldn't be so worried.

But he left gracefully, without lingering or making a fuss, thus earning a good reputation in front of Lin Xiyin.

Now, when Lin Xiyin mentions him, she always speaks well of him.

He is also Lin Youxing's godfather.

Pei Muyi didn't dare to say anything more, afraid that Lin Xiyin would think he was petty.

But he was indeed very concerned about Lin Xiyin's attitude towards Chi Tianlin.

He thought Chi Tianlin was really cunning.

To reiterate, if Chi Tianlin had confessed his feelings and pursued him, Pei Muye wouldn't have been so troubled.

Because he knew that Lin Xiyin would definitely refuse.

The difficulty lies in the fact that Chi Tianlin is too scheming.

He stood beside Lin Xiyin as a friend, which neither offended Lin Xiyin nor offended him, and also satisfied his own selfish desires.

Although he is now abroad, Lin Xiyin still cares about him, and Pei Muye knows that.

But since they are friends, it would seem petty for Pei Muye to be jealous.

Fortunately, Chi Tianlin went abroad; otherwise, if he came to see Lin Youxing every few days, interfering in his life under the guise of being the child's godfather, Pei Muye would be furious.

When Lin Xiyin heard him mention Chi Tianlin, she rolled her eyes: "What's wrong with Chi Tianlin? We're just friends! Does that mean I can't even have friends if I marry you?"

See, that's where Chi Tianlin's brilliance lies.

Pei Muyi quickly said, "Of course not! You have the freedom to make friends, but everyone knows that Chi Tianlin's intentions are as clear as day..."

“Don’t say that about him,” Lin Xiyin said. “He has never said anything ambiguous to me, nor has he ever done anything inappropriate.”

“I know,” Pei Muyi said, annoyed. “That’s why even when he’s not here, we can still argue.”

"Arguing?" Lin Xiyin frowned. "Who argued with you?"

Pei Muye said, "I misspoke. Let's not talk about this..."

"Pei Muyi!" Lin Xiyin was angry. "Can't you trust our relationship a little more? Trust me a little more? Do you think I'm the kind of person who's fickle? And to put it bluntly, if something really happened between us, would we even have a chance?"

"What do you mean!" Pei Muyi was also a little angry: "During the years you were gone, did you develop feelings for him?"

Lin Xiyin closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Then, she pushed Pei Muye away and got out of the car herself.

Pei Muyi regretted his words as soon as he finished speaking. Seeing her get out of the car, he quickly chased after her, calling out, "Yinyin!"

Lin Xiyin didn't turn her head and strode forward.

Pei Muye quickly caught up with her: "Yinyin, I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything by it..."

Lin Xiyin pulled her hand back: "It's getting late, go back and rest early."

Aren't you coming to my place?

"I'm not going today," Lin Xiyin said. "I can't do anything during my period."

Pei Muyi was taken aback, then said angrily, "Do you think I'm with you just for that matter?"

Lin Xiyin looked at him: "How does it feel to be misunderstood?"

Pei Muye immediately realized what was happening.

He reached for her hand again: "I acted impulsively and said the wrong thing, Yinyin, I really never doubted you..."

"I see."

"Then come back with me, okay?"

"I'm very tired," Lin Xiyin said. "Can I rest by myself for a bit?"

Pei Muyi felt uncertain and a little panicked.

He said, "Are you still angry? I know Chi Tianlin likes you, but you've never had any other feelings for him. I misspoke, Yinyin, I won't do it again..."

Lin Xiyin didn't know why Pei Muye was always concerned about this.

She hardly ever contacted Chi Tianlin. Occasionally, he would send her a message, usually to ask about Youyou's situation.

The conversation between the two was also very simple and straightforward.

"Would you be happy if I broke off my friendship with Chi Tianlin?"
