Chapter 302 Have you ever been jealous of me?

Qu Jianhang was on his way home from the company when he received the call.

Lin Xiyin had arranged to have dinner with Chi Tianlin, but no one was home, so she went to pick up Lin Youxing.

She called Lin Xiyin first and told her, "When you're having dinner with Tianlin, you need to be careful to keep your distance and watch your words, okay?"

Lin Xiyin glanced at Pei Muye beside her and said, "Mom, I know."

“It’s normal for Makino to be jealous, so try to coax him more.”

"Um."

"Don't take it lightly," Qu Jianhang instructed her. "Consider Mu Ye's feelings."

"Mom, I know everything."

After Lin Xiyin hung up the phone, Pei Muye asked, "What did Mom say?"

"Let me consider your feelings," Lin Xiyin said. "I don't want you to feel uncomfortable."

"I'm fine," Pei Muyi said. "Didn't we already talk things out before?"

"Mom is just worried about you," Lin Xiyin said. "You're so jealous that the whole family knows about it."

“I…” Pei Muye glanced at her: “I’m not being jealous for no reason or for no reason.”

"Yes, yes, you're right. You're not being unreasonable."

"That's true. Although I'm not jealous anymore, you should still talk less and eat more later."

Lin Xiyin had no choice but to agree.

But once they actually meet, Pei Muye would definitely not take the initiative to chat with Chi Tianlin.

A dining table for three can never be completely silent.

Therefore, Lin Xiyin became the one who created the atmosphere.

She apologized to Chi Tianlin first: "Youyou has a last-minute school event and can't come. I'm so sorry you won't see him today."

Chi Tianlin quickly said, "It's alright, I'm not leaving these next few days."

Lin Xiyin said, "Do you have time this weekend? If it's convenient, you can take Youyou to the amusement park."

“Okay,” Chi Tianlin said. “I’m leaving next week.”

"Will you continue to focus your work abroad?" Lin Xiyin asked.

“Yes,” Chi Tianlin said, “Making money from foreigners is pretty cool.”

"Making money is important, but you also need to take care of your health." Lin Xiyin asked him, "How's your stomach lately?"

Pei Muye glanced at her.

Chi Tianlin said, "It's much better. People abroad don't have much of a drinking culture, so I drink much less often."

"That's good."

Chi Tianlin asked her, "Don't always ask me. What about you? Have you had any symptoms this time you're pregnant?"

"That's good," Lin Xiyin said. "Youyou was very well-behaved back then, and this one is quite well-behaved now too."

Pei Muye said, "It's still early. The doctor said that sometimes pregnancy symptoms may appear around the third month, but everyone's situation is different."

Lin Xiyin said, "No matter what, I can't possibly end up like Yiyi, right? By the way..."

She went to see Chi Tianlin: "Did you go see Attorney Huo again?"

“He’s gone,” Chi Tianlin said. “He’s fine, all his tests were normal, and he’ll recover slowly. But he’s different from those who have been bedridden for many years; they still need to do rehabilitation and such. He’s been bedridden for a few months, but it hasn’t had much of an impact on his health.”

"This is wonderful!" Lin Xiyin said. "You have no idea how happy I am."

“I’m also very happy,” Chi Tianlin said. “He and Xiao Ruoyi have had a tough time. If he were to fall into a coma like this, it would be too much of a blow to Xiao Ruoyi and the child.”

“Yes,” Lin Xiyin said, “It’s a coincidence that you came back just as he woke up.”

“When he first got into trouble, I went back to China and visited a temple. Do you remember? We even went together.”

Lin Xiyin nodded: "I remember."

"Before I leave, I need to go and fulfill my vow. You're pregnant now, so let's go another time when we have the chance."

"good."

The meal went smoothly, and Pei Muye didn't say much, but he didn't target Chi Tianlin either.

I occasionally join in their conversations.

The atmosphere was fairly harmonious.

Lin Xiyin was quite happy because Pei Muye seemed normal.

When he returned, he had a stern face, clearly the kind of person who wouldn't talk to anyone.

Lin Xiyin moved closer to him and took his arm: "What's wrong? Didn't you say you weren't jealous?"

“I didn’t want to be jealous, because I know you wouldn’t have anything going on with him,” Pei Muye said. “But why are you so concerned about him? You’re telling him to drink less and to take care of his stomach…”

"Isn't mutual care the most basic thing between friends?" Lin Xiyin thought for a moment and said, "My care isn't excessive, is it? It's just the kind of greeting between ordinary friends."

“They’re not just ordinary friends,” Pei Muyi said. “The atmosphere between you two feels so natural… I feel like I’m just an outsider!”

"How could that be!" Lin Xiyin patted his shoulder: "You're overthinking it. Besides, we've only met once, and who knows when we'll see each other again."

"You still have expectations?"

"You..." Lin Xiyin pinched him again: "Don't misunderstand me, okay!"

Pei Muye gave a soft hum.

“You can deliver it next time he meets Youyou,” Lin Xiyin said. “I don’t care anymore.”

"I'm not that petty."

"Aren't you stingy?"

Pei Muye remained silent.

He is indeed stingy.

Back when Lin Xiyin was at the research institute, he would get jealous whenever he saw her with her colleagues, and then he would remain silent, only knowing how to torment her in bed.

Now that I've spoken out, I'm still petty no matter what.

He's certainly not a stingy person, but he can't be generous in this matter.

“I admit I’m stingy,” Pei Muyi said. “I’m fine with everything else, but I’m just stingy about this.”

"You stingy person."

"Yes, I'm a cheapskate."

Hearing him say that, Lin Xiyin's heart softened again.

"Okay, you know I only have eyes for you." Lin Xiyin nestled against his shoulder: "My relationships with others are just ordinary friends, and that will never change."

Say it again.

"It will never change."

"The previous sentence."

Lin Xiyin thought for a moment and said, "I will always be just ordinary friends with others."

"The previous sentence."

Lin Xiyin punched him lightly: "Did you do that on purpose?"

"Yes, on purpose." He looked down at her. "I wanted to hear you say something nice."

"You're the only one in my heart." Lin Xiyin satisfied him: "You're the only one in my heart, and that has never changed from the past to the present."

Pei Muye found it extremely satisfying to listen to.

He pulled her into his arms and kissed her.

"It's okay, he'll ask Youyou out, we'll go together to deliver it."

"Let's forget it, I'm afraid you'll get jealous again."

"No, trust me."

Lin Xiyin had no choice but to say, "Okay, I believe you."

Anyway, I'll just drop the child off, say hello, and leave.

Pei Muye asked her, "Actually, being jealous is a sign of loving you and caring about you. Haven't you ever been jealous of me?"

Lin Xiyin said, "There are many. I used to..."

Pei Muyi quickly said, "Let's not talk about the past; it was all a misunderstanding. What about now?"
