Chapter 536 Will Uncle Li come with us?
Feng Anhuai was surprised to be rejected so decisively. He smiled bitterly and secretly regretted that he should have dressed so scantily today in order to look good. After all, Su Youling did not seem to notice his clothes today, let alone realize that he had dressed up specially.
But he used work as an excuse to come to my door, so naturally he was reluctant to leave just like that.
Seeing the slight impatience in Su Youling's expression, although she wasn't cold-faced yet, her eyes seemed to convey the message, "Do you have something else to do? If not, you can leave now."
Feng Anhuai felt a slight tightness in his throat. He wanted to help her, so he thought he'd remind her again about the Ye Group, "What I mentioned to you last time..."
He had barely begun to speak when the sudden, childlike ringtone interrupted him.
Su Youling gave him an apologetic look, took two steps away, and answered the phone.
Yueyue's pitiful little voice, tinged with tears, came from the other end: "Mommy, Yueyue's tummy hurts so much! Xingxing and Yangyang asked me if I ate something wrong, but Yueyue really didn't steal any snacks, boohoo~ Mommy, where are you? Can you come and save Yueyue..."
Su Youling turned pale with fright and instinctively turned to run into the villa.
As a result, when I looked up unintentionally, I caught a glimpse of a pink skirt peeking out from behind the stone statue at the right corner.
She recognized it at a glance as the new dress she had bought for Yueyue.
Su Youling glanced at her phone, puzzled. Yueyue's cries of pain continued, even more urgent than before.
Stomach ache? You little liar.
She was both annoyed and amused. She quickly withdrew her right foot, which had already hastily stepped out, and turned to look at Feng Anhuai. "I have some urgent business to attend to. Let's talk about work later. I'll have someone take you there."
Although she had no idea what Yueyue was up to, she, as her mother, had to play along so as not to upset her.
"No need, I drove here myself." Feng Anhuai had noticed all the changes in her behavior before and after answering the phone, and found it a little strange, but he didn't dare to ask too many questions, for fear of offending her.
Su Youling nodded. "Then I'll head back now."
Feng Anhuai stood still, watching her figure until it disappeared from sight before turning away with a gloomy expression.
Su Youling deliberately delayed going upstairs. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Yueyue lying on the bed, clutching her stomach and curled up in a ball. Xingxing and Yangyang next to her had worried expressions on their faces.
"Mom, come and see Yueyue quickly." Xingxing frowned as she looked at Su Youling.
They're putting on quite a convincing act.
Su Youling walked over calmly, feigning concern, "Why does Yueyue suddenly have a stomachache?"
Yangyang's acting skills were a bit lacking. He had never lied to Su Youling, and he didn't dare to look at her at this moment. He just squatted down and held Yueyue's little hand to cover up his lie, and whispered to comfort her.
Su Youling secretly wondered who came up with this idea, while at the same time she walked to the bedside.
She carefully lifted Yueyue's little face from the pillow and, upon seeing her daughter's rosy cheeks, which resembled a ripe peach, she almost couldn't help but lose her composure.
"No, Yueyue's face is so red, she must have a fever. I have to take her to the hospital right away!" She pretended to be serious and then picked up Yueyue.
#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!
Xingxing and Yangyang exchanged a glance, their expressions revealing their panic: What should we do?
If we send Yueyue to the hospital, won't her faking illness be exposed?
Yangyang was also in a dilemma. He actually disagreed with Xingxing's suggestion, but Yueyue agreed without hesitation, so he had no choice but to cooperate.
Compared to the two of them, Yueyue was even more impatient. As soon as she heard that Su Youling was going to take her to the hospital, she immediately stopped pretending, quickly got up and hugged Su Youling's neck, opening her big eyes innocently and in surprise, "Mom, Yueyue's tummy doesn't seem to hurt anymore."
"..." Yangyang and Xingxing simply couldn't bear to watch her terrible acting.
Su Youling found it amusing to tease her daughter and didn't intend to expose her so easily. Instead, she said seriously, "That won't do. We have to go to the hospital. What if her stomach hurts again later?"
Yangyang realized that Su Youling had clearly seen through their lies.
He tugged at Xingxing beside him, took a step forward, and took the initiative to apologize to Su Youling: "Mom, I'm sorry, Yueyue is actually fine, we lied."
Su Youling looked at Yueyue's face, which instantly filled with guilt, and sighed softly, "Then can you explain why you pretended to be sick to lie to your mother?"
Yueyue's big, dark eyes darted around, and she was a little embarrassed to speak.
Yangyang simply took all the blame upon himself: "It was my idea. Mom hasn't had time to spend with us lately because of work. Even when she's finally home, that uncle calls her away, so I came up with this solution."
Xingxing and Yueyue quickly jumped out and said it was their fault.
Yueyue thought Su Youling was really angry, so she hugged her neck affectionately and couldn't help but reveal her true feelings: "Mom, Yueyue doesn't like that uncle. I'm afraid he'll take you away from me."
"Why would you think that?" Su Youling's heart softened instantly. Then, she noticed the slightly uneasy looks in Xingxing and Yangyang's eyes and realized that they had the same idea. Her feelings became complicated.
She's been so busy lately that she didn't realize her three children would become so insecure due to the lack of companionship. She's been incredibly negligent as a mother.
"I'm sorry, Mom didn't do a good enough job." Su Youling apologized immediately after realizing her mistake and beckoned Xingxing and Yangyang to come closer.
Holding the three children in her arms, Su Youling's eyes filled with affection as she earnestly promised, "Mommy doesn't like Uncle Feng, so you don't have to worry at all that he'll take Mommy away from you."
Thinking of Li Tingxi, her eyes darkened. She patted each of the three children's heads and said soothingly, "Mommy said that no one can separate us. After Mommy finishes her work, I'll take you to see the aurora, okay? Yueyue has always wanted to go, hasn't she?"
"That's great!" Yueyue happily hugged Su Youling and stood on tiptoe to plant a sweet kiss on her face.
Not content with smearing her mother's face with sticky drool, the pink little dumpling snuggled into her arms, whimpering and acting cute, and finally cautiously added, "Mommy, will Uncle Li be coming with us too?"
Su Youling paused, noticing the expectation in her eyes, and asked her earnestly, "Do you want Uncle Li to go?"
Yueyue became a little awkward again, and mumbled, "Actually, one more person won't hurt. He's tall and strong, and he can protect us."
