Chapter 130 The Heroic Competition officially opens
Wu Ma had never seen such a shameless woman, and her face was not very good at the moment.
"Ms. Cheng, we have cleaned up the kitchen..."
Cheng Yan suddenly looked up and stared at Wu Ma, as if Wu Ma's words had touched her sore spot.
Wu Ma was frightened by Cheng Yan's eyes. The threatening feeling forced Wu Ma to lower her head.
She knew that now that Cheng Qian was divorced from her husband, she might move out one day.
The woman who moved in was Cheng Yan.
Wu Ma didn't want to lose this stable, high-paying job, so she could only put on a smile and say, "Hey, Miss Cheng, wait a moment. I'll go into the kitchen and make you something to eat."
"I don't eat cilantro, so I won't eat spicy food, thank you." Cheng Yan said this and went straight upstairs.
Aunt Wu immediately imitated Cheng Yan's arrogant expression and said these words, which made her feel disgusted.
Cheng Yan walked upstairs lightly and heard a man's lazy and low voice coming from the master bedroom. He seemed to be in a good mood.
Cheng Yan paused for a moment and suddenly felt that she shouldn't have been so presumptuous to go upstairs to find him.
Thinking of the last time he scolded her, Cheng Yan still felt a little scared.
Ever since she and Li Zhinan met, he always spoke to her in a gentle and soft voice, never gave her a cold look, and generously gave her everything she wanted.
But now...
Cheng Yan was filled with regret. She had maintained her image until the day they divorced, but on that day, Cheng Qian discovered that she had added something to the children's rice porridge.
Cheng Yan was angry with herself at the moment. She had endured it for four years, so why should she make a fuss about the child?
When Cheng Yan fed the child with feed, her original intention was not to frame the child. She just wanted Cheng Qian and the Li family to see that she had put in the effort. If the child became white and plump, wouldn't that prove that she was a good mother?
But who knew that her cleverness would backfire and put her in such an embarrassing situation.
Cheng Yan went downstairs, sat on the sofa and sent a message to Li Zhinan.
After a while, Li Zhinan came downstairs with Xiaoye in his arms.
Cheng Yan stood up from the sofa, her face full of self-blame and guilt. She pinched her fingers nervously and helplessly, looking both charming and guilty.
Li Zhinan looked at her and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
Only then did Cheng Yan look up and look at the man.
Li Zhinan was dressed casually today, in a black T-shirt and dark casual pants. He looked young and handsome, lacking the authority of a big boss but adding a touch of charming husband.
"Zhi Nan, I..." As soon as Cheng Yan spoke, tears rolled down her eyelashes, and her voice was choked and she couldn't continue.
When Li Zhinan saw her like this, he knew that she felt guilty and wanted to come over to apologize.
"You should explain this matter clearly to Cheng Qian." Li Zhinan said with a cold face.
"I will." Cheng Yan raised her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes: "I didn't mean to frame Xiaoye, Zhinan, please believe me, I just..."
Cheng Yan covered her face and burst into tears: "I admit that I was too rash and eager for quick success. I thought that as long as Xiao Ye gained some weight, I could prove that I was also good at raising children."
"Cheng Yan, since you know where you went wrong, don't do it again in the future." Li Zhinan reminded seriously.
Cheng Yan bit her lips until they turned white. She nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I understand. I swear to God that I will never do anything unnecessary again. At that time, I thought Xiao Ye was too thin, so... I only did these things because I read some posts online."
Li Zhinan raised his finger: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Hormones have a long-term impact on children. Xiaoye is fine now, but who knows if it will cause a disease in the future? Cheng Yan, you must apologize to Cheng Qian for this matter, and also take responsibility for the future."
Cheng Yan's eyes froze for a moment, and the next second, tears rolled down her cheeks.
When did Li Zhinan start to care so much about Cheng Qian's feelings?
Could it be that he knew that the night four years ago was not Cheng Qian's masterpiece, and he felt that the four years had caused harm to Cheng Qian, so was he making it up to her?
So, the reason he is nice to Cheng Qian now is just because he feels guilty and wants to make up for her?
Thinking of this, Cheng Yan's inner anxiety disappeared instantly. This incident proved that Li Zhinan was a good man, very responsible, and worthy of her love.
There is a saying that goes, love a man who is good himself, rather than making him good.
Since he was just making up for Cheng Qian and not recognizing her emotionally, Cheng Yan was willing to accompany him to make up for her.
"Miss Cheng, your breakfast is ready." Aunt Wu came out with a bowl of egg noodles.
Cheng Yan was immediately embarrassed and said to Li Zhinan, "It was Aunt Wu who took the initiative to make breakfast for me."
Li Zhinan didn't care about these little things at all, but Wu Ma was disgusted again.
What does it mean to be proactive? This Miss Cheng really likes to lie with her eyes open, trying to clear herself of all wrongdoing.
Wu Ma couldn't help but worry about her future. If such a scheming and cruel mistress really came, would she be able to keep this job for long?
"Since Auntie Wu has made breakfast for you, take your time to eat. I'll take Xiaoye out later." Li Zhinan said calmly.
Cheng Yan was stunned and asked quickly, "Zhi Nan, where are you taking Xiao Ye?"
"Come to Huaijing's house and have a seat." Xiaoye woke up early in the morning and came to bother him, insisting on meeting Taotao. Li Zhinan had no choice but to call Chu Huaijing.
It just so happened that Chu Weijing was at home today, so he asked him to take Xiaoye over to play.
In fact, Li Zhinan was resisting. He knew that Chu Huaijing had bad intentions towards Cheng Qian, and it would not be good for him to let Xiaoye have too much contact with him.
But Xiaoye likes Taotao, so even if Li Zhinan is not happy, he can only take his son to see Chu Huaijing with a cold face.
"Then can I go with you? I can help you take care of Xiaoye." Cheng Yan's face lit up with joy and she immediately asked pleadingly.
Li Zhinan said coldly: "Don't bother to make trouble. Cheng Qian has asked that you can no longer be alone with Xiaoye."
"Ah..." Cheng Yan's mind buzzed. Cheng Qian actually dared to make such an excessive request.
"Zhi Nan, you don't think I'm a bad woman, do you?" Cheng Yan's eyes reddened as she spoke, tears welling up in her eyes again. "If I were really that bad, how could I have dared to risk my life to pull you out of the burning car..."
"Cheng Yan, let's put things one way and don't worry about it. This is just Cheng Qian's request. Now the custody of the child is in her hands, and I must obey her request." While Li Zhinan was speaking, he squatted down, found a pair of small shoes for his son, and put them on him.
Cheng Yan wanted to say something, but her voice suddenly fell silent.
When did Li Zhinan learn to respect Cheng Qian?
Didn't he treat her like rags and smelly clothes and just throw her in a corner before?
The car outside the door had already driven out of the courtyard, but Cheng Yan was still standing there stiffly.
Wu Ma poked half her head out of the kitchen and saw that Cheng Yan hadn't come over to eat the noodles yet, so she came out and reminded her, "Miss Cheng, if you don't eat now, the noodles will get cold."
Cheng Yan was extremely annoyed at the moment, and Wu Ma's voice also sounded very annoying to her.
"I'm not eating anymore." Cheng Yan said, picked up her bag and strode out.
Wu Ma: “…”
Isn’t Miss Cheng playing tricks on me?
In comparison, the image of the hostess Cheng Qian instantly became more prominent in Wu Ma's heart.
Baiyun Mansion.
This is Chu Huaijing's residence, two three-story white Western-style buildings and a courtyard of neither too big nor too small.
At this moment, in the playground in the courtyard, a little figure was running around happily.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor, Chu Huaijing was still wearing pajamas. He lowered his eyes and looked at his nephew playing downstairs, but his heart was empty and he was distracted for a long time.
Last time at school, he was so angry that he confessed his feelings for Cheng Qian to Li Zhinan.
Although Li Zhinan was not very angry, the relationship between the brothers was probably deteriorating.
Chu Huaijing clenched his fists. His father hoped that he and Li Zhinan would establish a good relationship to facilitate the next election. The nearly seventy industries under the Li family affected nearly half of the country's GDP. Li Zhinan's business empire could influence the next election campaign.
Chu Huaijing felt a little headache. Maybe he was still too young and couldn't keep his composure.
However, life is only once, and it would be a pity if you cannot fight for the person you like freely.
As Chu Huaijing was thinking this, a black Bentley suddenly drove in downstairs. It was Li Zhinan.
Chu Huaijing quickly found his clothes, changed them, and went downstairs to greet them.
Li Zhinan picked up Xiaoye from the car, and the little guy ran to find Taotao as if he had a motor. The two little guys hugged each other and jumped happily.
When Li Zhinan saw this scene, he panicked a little and his heart started beating wildly.
It's over. Xiaoye and Taotao have such a good relationship. Does it make it easier for Cheng Qian and Chu Huaijing to establish a relationship beyond friendship?
Thinking of this, Li Zhinan's mood disappeared, but he couldn't show it on his face. After all, he and Cheng Qian had a decent divorce.
The key point is the word "decent". If he acts like a madman, getting jealous and trying to stop it frantically, then he would be too dishonorable.
"Zhi Nan, you're here." Chu Huaijing smiled brightly: "Come over here and have some tea."
Li Zhinan suppressed his bad mood and walked over with a smile: "I hope I didn't disturb you."
Chu Huaijing shook his head: "No, let's take a break today. It's best for the two children to have company to play with."
Li Zhinan looked towards the playground and saw the two little guys already playing happily together.
Chu Huaijing sat on a chair and started to boil water to make tea, while Li Zhinan sat next to him.
If it were in the past, the two of them would have at least a hundred ways to communicate, but at this moment, they were a little silent.
"Are you busy with work lately?" Chu Huaijing felt that such silence was too suffocating, so he chatted casually.
"Not bad, I can handle it." Li Zhinan smiled impeccably. "How about you? I heard you're getting promoted again. Should I congratulate you first?"
Chu Huaijing shook his head and laughed: "Forget about opening champagne halfway, congratulations will be given after the appointment letter comes down."
Li Zhinan nodded and thought to himself, Chu Huaijing has always been calm and composed, but precisely because of his personality, his inner thoughts and ideas also seem mysterious.
How long has he liked Cheng Qian?
One year, three years?
It can't be four years, right? He fell in love with Cheng Qian when he and she just got married?
Chu Huaijing brought a cup of brewed tea to him and said, "Drink it, it tastes pretty good."
Li Zhinan picked up the teacup, took a sip with his thin lips, and praised: "It's good."
Seeing that Li Zhinan was even drinking tea absent-mindedly, Chu Huaijing had to break his composure.
"Do you have something to ask me?" Chu Huaijing looked at him.
Li Zhinan held the cup tightly, his eyes lowered, staring at the tea in the cup: "How long have you liked her?"
