Seeing that her mother didn't answer for a long time, Li Yuanyuan frowned and asked, "Mom, don't you like Dad?"
Su Jingjing couldn't bear to see the little one sad, so she quickly denied it, "Ah, no."
As he spoke, he stroked his daughter's face, saying, "There are some complicated things between Daddy and Mommy. You're still young now, but you'll understand when you grow up."
Even if she has feelings for Li Hanting, the man may not be interested in her.
After all, the original owner had forced herself on him, and this marriage could be said to have been stolen by the original owner.
To prevent the little one from asking any more questions, Su Jingjing stopped him in time, saying, "It's getting late, go to sleep."
He then patted her on the back.
Li Hanting, standing outside the door, furrowed his brows, but his expression was completely obscured by the darkness of the night.
He only went into the room after it had quieted down inside.
The next day, Li Yuanyuan woke up in her mother's arms, and she couldn't be happier.
She even smiled while brushing her teeth and washing her face, which made Li Cheng'an's heart itch.
Two days have passed in the blink of an eye.
As Su Jingjing came down the stairs that day, she heard a group of women praising her in unison under the big tree.
I glanced over instinctively and saw a woman in a white dress standing in the crowd, smiling and looking rather delicate.
However, isn't this pure white dress a bit too exaggerated, as if it's deliberately trying to make her look delicate?
Suddenly their eyes met, and a series of images flashed through Su Jingjing's mind.
Could this be the legendary "white lotus" or the original owner's fake sister?
Li Aiqin stepped forward with a smile to greet him, "Jingjing, it's been a long time."
The other person had a genuine smile on their face, and didn't seem like someone who would stab you in the back at all.
Since it's a performance, she'll naturally play along to the end.
"Aegean, you're back. Did your trip go smoothly?"
Su Jingjing suddenly remembered that Bai Lianhua had gone out for further studies a while ago.
Although the words were almost identical, Li Aiqin felt that Su Jingjing's tone was much more distant.
"fine."
"Jingjing, let's go over there and talk."
Su Jingjing was suddenly grabbed by the arm, and felt goosebumps all over her body.
Suppressing her discomfort, she followed Bai Lianhua to the other side of the big tree.
Sure enough, as soon as she sat down, Bai Lianhua couldn't contain herself and tentatively asked, "Jingjing, how have things been between you and Brother Hanting lately?"
Su Jingjing gave an ambiguous answer, "It's like that." She left the rest to the other person's imagination.
Li Aiqin frowned. What kind of answer was that?
"Jingjing, I just heard from those older women that you almost sold An'an and Yuanyuan a couple of weeks ago, is that right?"
She wished she could sell those two brats so that they could have their own children after she married Han Ting.
Su Jingjing then lifted her eyelids. It's true what they say, good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast.
Wasn't Bai Lianhua saying all that just to shut her up?
However, Su Jingjing was not the original owner of this body and was completely fooled.
Who doesn't know how to pretend to be innocent and pure?
She feigned a wronged expression, saying, "Aiqin, why don't you believe me? Even if I don't like An'an and Yuanyuan, they are still flesh of my flesh."
After saying that, he secretly glanced at the other person.
Li Aiqin's lips twitched. Was it really necessary to be so emotional?
"Jingjing, of course I believe you."
She can't afford to offend this idiot right now; some of Han Ting's private matters were revealed by Su Jingjing.
"Thank you, Aiqin."
Su Jingjing yawned. "I'm sleepy. I'm going to go to sleep first. We can talk another day."
Too lazy to deal with the scheming woman anymore, she deliberately made an excuse to avoid her.
"Okay, I'll come to your house again tomorrow."
What a pig! All he does is eat and sleep.
Su Jingjing, who was being treated like a pig, was leaning back in her chair, leisurely munching on an apple.
She has already translated several manuscripts and is thinking of finding some time to go to the city.
The next day, Bai Lianhua somehow found out that the man was off work that day and specially brought gifts to his door.
Su Jingjing was always uncomfortable being in the same space as a man.
Upon hearing the knock, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and instructed the man to open the door.
Li Hanting opened the door and frowned when he saw Li Aiqin outside. Why was she here?
Li Aiqin pretended not to know anything and said with a surprised look, "Brother Hanting, you're home."
Afraid that the man would misunderstand, she quickly picked up the fruit in her hand and said, "I wanted to come up here today to chat with Jingjing."
Li Hanting opened the door expressionlessly, then walked into the room without saying a word. He stopped next to Su Jingjing and said to her, "You two talk first."
Upon seeing Li Aiqin's figure, Su Jingjing felt a flash of impatience. She thought, "She's like a persistent ghost."
"Jingjing, these are the fruits I bought for An'an and Yuanyuan."
Su Jingjing glanced at the bag and saw a few wilted oranges inside. She declined, saying, "Take them home and eat them. No need to be so polite."
Unexpectedly, the other party simply placed it on the table and sat down in the chair as if they were old friends.
"It's okay, I have plenty at home."
Bai Lianhua comes from a decent family and seems to have some connection with the Li family. Back then, Li's mother had her in mind as her daughter-in-law. In Li's mother's eyes, she was well-educated, polite, and quiet, similar to her sister-in-law.
Li Yuehuan and Li Aiqin have a very good relationship.
"Jingjing, is Brother Hanting taking a day off today?"
Su Jingjing's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she replied lazily, "Probably, I didn't ask him."
These words sounded both jarring and pleasant to Li Aiqin.
She was relieved that their relationship had remained calm and uneventful, which gave her a chance.
But she also felt that Su Jingjing was blind and didn't know how to cherish Han Ting.
The two then chatted casually, and of the ten sentences Li Aiqin uttered, at least two were about Li Hanting.
Su Jingjing pretended not to understand what the other person meant and maintained a calm and composed demeanor.
After chatting idly for half an hour without seeing Brother Hanting come out, Li Aiqin had no choice but to get up and say goodbye.
The moment she closed the door, Su Jingjing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"If you don't like associating with her, why do you still let her come to your door?"
Just then, a man's voice sounded behind her.
Su Jingjing shrugged. "It's not bad to treat it as a spice in life."
Since she's feeling down, she can use the White Lotus's hand to strike at Jin Ju, at least to get the original owner's money back.
At this point, she crossed her arms and looked directly into the man's eyes, "Aren't you two childhood sweethearts? Why are you so cold to her?"
Li Hanting's gaze seemed to deepen as he stared intently at the carefree woman opposite him.
“We weren’t childhood sweethearts, so there’s no need for me to be overly enthusiastic towards her.”
As he said this, Li Hanting pressed closer.
Startled, Su Jingjing stepped back. "What...what are you going to do?"
Seriously? I just said "childhood sweethearts" and that offended him?
Men are so unpredictable!
Only when she had nowhere left to retreat did Li Hanting stop in front of his wife, reaching out to envelop her between the wall and his chest.
