Chen Jing's expression changed, and she quickly stuffed the document into her bag.

Although she brought the documents back, she doesn't yet have the courage to show them to her daughter and son-in-law.

Or, if she still can't muster the courage in the end, then she'll just tell Luo Yifan directly that she won't gamble!

"Zizai, don't touch those things, they belong to Grandma."

Her quick wit only led her to utter such unrestrained and unconvincing words.

"Grandma, what is it? Can't Zizai see it? Is it a love letter?" Zizai blinked his big eyes, looking at Chen Jing innocently.

When the word "love letter" came out of the little guy's mouth, everyone in the living room, including Chen Jing, was stunned.

All eyes turned to Chen Jing. "Mom, is it really a love letter?"

Zhu Qianying couldn't help but join in the mischief with Zizai. Of course, her mischief was conscious, while Zizai's mischief was more subconscious.

Chen Jing's face flushed slightly, and she didn't dare to look at Zhu Qianying at all, only staring at Zizai's chubby face as she denied it.

"Of course not, where would a love letter come from! Don't listen to Zizai's nonsense."

She had no idea that her granddaughter and son-in-law knew about Luo Yifan's feelings for her even before she did.

The first person to hear Luo Yifan admit that he liked her was her precious grandson in her arms.

Therefore, the young master's words are not nonsense, but based on real evidence.

"Grandma, Zizai isn't lying. Yesterday, Grandpa Luo admitted to Zizai himself that he likes you, Grandma!"

The young master only told his mother and Xiao Luzi about it; he didn't tell anyone else in the family. But in his heart, he was actually very happy about it.

So, after holding it in all day, he finally had the chance to say it, and he couldn't have felt more relieved.

Of course, this feeling of comfort comes more from the fact that her mother-in-law has someone else who likes her.

Zhu Qianying, Yan Shao, and Xiao Luzi already knew about this, so they weren't particularly surprised.

But Yanbo and Madam Yan only learned about this at this moment.

"Ah Jing, is what Zizai said true?" Old Madam Yan looked at her with great eagerness.

Chen Jing really wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

Normally, at her age, it's difficult for her to openly express things like liking or loving someone.

Firstly, it's because they're embarrassed.

Secondly, it's because of a lack of self-confidence.

"Sister Huai..."

Chen Jing was trying to organize her thoughts to explain that the matter was still far from being resolved, but Zizai rushed to answer.

"Grandma, of course it's true. Grandpa Luo pulled me aside yesterday afternoon to tell me."

Zizai spoke with such seriousness that no one could doubt him.

Chen Jing then remembered that she had indeed seen Luo Yifan and Zizai whispering to each other in a corner yesterday. So that's what they were talking about?

At this point, Chen Jing had no choice but to desert, because all four adults and two children in the living room, apart from her, were intelligent and quick-witted. Any one of them could easily overwhelm her, let alone all six of them together.

If she can't afford to offend her, can't she at least avoid her?

Thinking this, Chen Jing lifted Zizai off her lap and moved him to the sofa next to her. She grabbed her bag and said, "I'm going to take a shower," before fleeing in a panic.

The group was left standing there, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Ying'er, is your mother feeling guilty?"

Madam Yan never expected that a single sentence from her would scare Chen Jing away.

"I think so!" Zhu Qianying nodded with a smile.

Zizai is quite adept at reading people's expressions. Seeing that the elders were relaxed and their tone was cheerful, they didn't seem to blame him for revealing his mother's little secret.

"Mommy, do you think Grandma is shy?"

It must be said that children's insight can sometimes be even stronger than adults'.

Zhu Qianying patted his little belly with a smile, "How would Mommy know? You can ask Grandma when you see her tomorrow."

Yan Shao, who had been watching the show without saying a word, couldn't help but shake his head.

“Zizai, don’t listen to your mommy, stop fooling around.”

Zhu Qianying protested, "How is this nonsense? We're just concerned about Mom."

Downstairs in the lobby, the people were having a harmless argument about Chen Jing and Luo Yifan. Upstairs, Chen Jing, who had instinctively become a deserter, threw her bag on the sofa as soon as she entered her room and rushed into the bathroom to take a shower.

Incidentally, it also helps to cool down her irrational mind and rapidly beating heart.

When she came out of the shower, she expected to see her eldest daughter in the room.

But the house was empty. The eldest daughter didn't seem to want to come in and ask any more questions.

Chen Jing couldn't say whether she was disappointed or relieved. Anyway, she sat down on the sofa with mixed feelings, took out the betting contract from her bag, and carefully read it several times from beginning to end.

If there are no problems with this bet, and everything is true, then to be honest, besides making her uneasy and embarrassed, this bet actually makes her happy.

It turns out that Chen Jing, too, deserves such a man's painstaking efforts.

Almost as if it were the same experience of her life, she felt a strong sense of pride as a woman.

Because, it seemed, this was the first time she had received favor and admiration from a man of similar age.

Moreover, it was done in such a passionate manner!

Indeed, in her opinion, what Luo Yifan did exceeded her expectations.

She thought she truly only craved a simple and ordinary life.

But she was wrong.

She actually quite liked Luo Yifan's enthusiastic way of expressing himself.

Although she was initially at a loss, after accepting it, she found that not only was she happy, but also a wave of tender emotions welled up inside her, gradually filling her heart.

At this moment, she felt as if she were basking in the warm sunshine, her whole body warm and comfortable from head to toe.

"Tap tap tap..."

Finally, there was a knock on the door.

Chen Jing felt a sense of relief. She got up, walked quickly over, and opened the door.

Standing outside the door was indeed Zhu Qianying.

Zhu Qianying stared at her mother's face and carefully examined her for a few moments. Seeing that her mother looked radiant and full of energy after taking a bath, she vaguely understood what was going on.

"Mom, I've come to keep you company..."

Zhu Qianying didn't ask anything else, only saying she would accompany her. Chen Jing naturally couldn't refuse her daughter, and in fact, she didn't want to refuse either.

On that day, Luo Yifan poured out so much to her, and to this day, she still has some doubts about what he poured out to her.

The betting contract, in particular, seemed absurd and ridiculous to her, yet she desperately wanted to believe in its authenticity rather than that it was a farce.
