Mu Qing, hounded by marriage pressure to the point of not daring to return home, rented her elder brother's classmate, Ye Junbo, to pretend to be her husband, all for the sake of a peaceful lif...
"Dad, we know we were wrong."
Seeing his wife turned pale after being scolded, the husband couldn't bear it and quickly admitted his mistake.
The old man glared at his son again, saying that it was his son who had no vision.
"Dad, I know I was wrong."
Ye Lin also quickly apologized, "I promise I won't put pressure on Xiaoxi to have a child again."
Since the old man has stated that he values ability rather than gender, Ye Lin no longer worries that power will fall into the hands of others.
With the good genes of her eldest son and Yang Xi's strong genes, the child born will definitely be a powerful one.
"After the New Year, let Yu'er take Xiaoxi back to live in the villa under his name, so that Xiaoxi won't be in a bad mood and affect my precious great-granddaughter."
The old man emphasized the three words "great-granddaughter" to tell his daughter-in-law that he valued Yang Xi's child very much.
Ye Lin didn't dare to say anything now. She just accepted whatever the old man said.
Although the old man came forward, Ouyang Yu still had a long talk with his mother after returning that night.
After that, no one dared to say in front of Yang Xi that they must have a son.
The third wife knew about the little conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She curled her lips and said to her husband privately that the old man was still partial to the eldest wife.
The old man obviously likes his grandson more. Because he favors the eldest wife, he says that ability is more important than gender.
But it is understandable. After all, Yang Xi, the eldest grandson's wife, was chosen by the old man. It was the old man who forced Ouyang Yu to marry Yang Xi for the first time. No one knew what method Yang Xi used to make the old man like her so much.
As long as the old man is around, Yang Xi can walk around the Ouyang family with his free will.
When the old man passes away in the future, Yang Xi will have already firmly established herself as the eldest lady in the Ouyang family, and no one can shake her position.
The third wife lamented that their third branch had lost completely.
…
A mountain villa.
There are mountains and forests all around, and it is especially quiet at night.
In the past, you could hear the chirping of insects, but now it is winter and too cold. Not to mention at night, even during the day it is deathly silent.
Cheng Lingling performed surgery on someone during the day, which took several hours to complete. Afterwards, she left without even taking a rest.
At this moment, she was lying in the bathtub, taking a hot bath.
Enjoying the quiet of the night.
The master and disciple have lived in this environment for more than 20 years. She has become accustomed to this kind of quietness and prefers it more.
The mountain villa seems isolated from the world, but it actually keeps pace with the times.
I touched my belly and it was still flat.
Cheng Lingling muttered to herself, "You're a good boy and you won't bother me."
She didn't have any pregnancy reactions and wouldn't vomit like Mu Qing did.
"Your father suspected me and actually flew to City X. Luckily, as soon as I finished the surgery, I escaped despite being tired."
She thought Jun Qin would only know after the child was born.
If the child looked like her, Jun Qin wouldn't know.
Unexpectedly, just a few days after she left City A, Jun Qin started to suspect her.
When she was still in City A, she met Jun Qin almost every day, but Jun Qin didn't suspect her. How could he become suspicious of her after just a few days? Who woke him up?
Mu Qing!
Thinking of what Mu Qing had said before, Cheng Lingling once again sighed that the imagination required for writing novels is rich.
The water temperature began to cool down, so Cheng Lingling stopped soaking in it, got out of the bathtub, put on a warm nightgown, and came out of the bathroom.
There was no heating in her room, and there was no heating in the whole villa.
The old man said that if you are afraid of the cold, you should practice more.
When she was a child, she was afraid of the cold, but now she is used to it.
Returning to bed, she lay down, pulled the thick quilt over her, and started to check the news and watch videos on her mobile phone.
She is actually very busy at work.
Only when she lies on this bed at night does she have some free time of her own.
"If you become nearsighted while lying down looking at your phone, I'll dig out your eyeballs and make you blind, so you don't have to wear glasses and look ugly."
Suddenly the old man's words came from the window.
Cheng Lingling sat up suddenly and looked towards the window. She saw her old master sitting on the windowsill, holding a pot of hot wine in his right hand. When she looked over, the old man took two sips of the wine.
"Is there no door? Don't you know how to knock? You always just sit there, how come you don't fall down and kill yourself?"
Cheng Lingling scolded the old man.
"I told you to stay away from that old man. You've learned some sneaky skills from him."
The old doctor would only sit on the window and would not actually jump into his apprentice's room. He said, "What do you know? The old thief had such skills back then. I don't know how many people envied him and wanted to learn from him."
On the contrary, not many people are interested in his medical skills, because studying medicine is very tiring and takes a long time.
Of course, it was also because he didn't like those people.
"What time is it? Why aren't you asleep? You've been doing surgery all day and rushed back overnight. Aren't you tired?"
"You didn't sleep either?"
The doctor took two more sips of wine and said, "I'm old now. I don't need to work. I just eat, drink and wait for death. It's okay to turn day and night upside down. I saw that the light was still on in your room, so I came to check on you."
"Speaking of which, girl, have you changed? In the past, if I asked you to go out for surgery, you wouldn't want to come back for ten days or half a month. The moment you left here, you were like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, wishing you could fly to the sky."
"Why don't you play this time? You came back right after the surgery. Tomorrow's sun will definitely rise from the west."
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
The genius doctor guessed that his disciple must be hiding something from him.
"With weather like this, the sun won't come out for several days, and you won't be able to tell where the sun will rise tomorrow."
Cheng Lingling put her phone on the bedside table and said, "It's really cold, and we don't have heating at home. I was worried you'd freeze to death and no one would know, so I rushed back. Hey, old man, do you want me to find you a pretty lady to keep you company?"
"If you want to have offspring, you can marry someone younger. Considering your health, you can still have a child. We are not short of money, so raising a child is not a problem."
The miracle doctor spat out a mouthful of wine.
Cheng Lingling was glad that the old man always sat by the window, which was far away, so his blood could not reach her.
"Silly girl, don't you want to support me in my old age? You're urging me to get married. If I wanted to get married, wouldn't it be better to get married when I was young? Why wait until now?"
Cheng Lingling smiled and said, "I'm just worried that you'll be lonely."
"If you take my grand-disciple and raise him, I won't be lonely. Also, are you pregnant? Whose child is it?"
Cheng Lingling said calmly, "I don't even have a man, how can I get pregnant? You're overthinking it."
