Chapter 4: Misunderstanding Cleared Up, Couple Reconciles



Ye Zhi felt a sudden hunger pang in her stomach, and her little mouth unconsciously opened and looked around.

Song Yuanqing had a sudden inspiration and miraculously realized that she was hungry.

Ye Jingyu carried Ye Zhi to her side.

"I need to breastfeed now, could you please excuse me?"

Ye Jingyu stared at Song Yuanqing's indifferent expression, puzzled.

Their relationship had just improved a bit today, so what happened this time?

Although I didn't want to go out, I didn't dare to disobey.

I silently drew the curtains by the bed. Surely I can stay outside the curtains?

Ye Zhi sucked on the sweet milk with her small mouth, and opened her eyes after she was full.

Holy crap! What is this?!

I suddenly closed my eyes, repeating the same words to myself.

Do not look at what is improper.

She quietly opened her eyes a crack.

My mom is so beautiful.

Song Yuanqing never expected that he would be teased by a newborn baby.

Her face was slightly flushed; she was also a new mother and felt quite embarrassed about breastfeeding.

Ye Zhi's words made him even more shy. He hurriedly and gently placed Ye Zhi beside him and then quickly got dressed.

Ye Jingyu, who was outside the curtain, naturally heard Ye Zhi's thoughts.

The somewhat gloomy look in his eyes has now turned into doting affection.

Hmph, you little pervert, I wonder who you took after at such a young age.

He coughed a few times deliberately to attract the mother and daughter's attention. "Are you done? Can I come in now?"

Song Yuanqing's voice sounded somewhat unnatural at this moment, "Come in."

Ye Jingyu pulled back the curtain he had long disliked, intending to sit on the edge of the bed and enjoy some family time.

There was a knock on the door, followed by a sickeningly sweet voice.

"Brother Jingyu, are you there? I've come to see my sister and niece."

A hint of impatience flashed in Ye Jingyu's eyes. If it weren't for the fact that the people outside the door were Yuan Qing's family members, he wouldn't have bothered to pay them any attention.

Song Yuanqing lowered her head in thought. She remembered that she hadn't told her so-called family members that she had given birth to a daughter.

How did Song Ranran find out? Could it be...?

He tightened his embrace around Ye Zhi.

Ye Jingyu opened the door, and Song Ranran and her mother, Chen Zhaodi, were standing outside.

"Brother Jingyu, childbirth must have been hard. Here's some tonic." It was that deliberately sweet but actually cloying voice again, making people panic.

Upon hearing her daughter's words, Chen Zhaodi hurriedly pulled Song Ranran behind her.

She smiled apologetically and said, "Ranran is still young and can't talk. Yuanqing, she's the one who's had a hard time. She was pregnant for ten months and had a C-section. She suffered a lot."

She forced out a few tears, feigning concern.

"Quick, let me in and see how my precious daughter is doing."

Despite her reluctance, she had to pretend to be anxious and worried for Song Yuanqing.

[Ranran? Song Ranran? Holy crap, the female lead! But she hasn't transmigrated yet, has she? The things she just said were utterly brainless.]

【That old lady too, Ranran is still young, she can't speak properly.】Then she mimicked Chen Zhaodi's words in a sarcastic tone.

[She's young? She's already twenty-four, twenty-five by the traditional Chinese age reckoning, she'll be thirty in the blink of an eye. If she's still young, then I'm just a fertilized egg.]

[Mom and Dad, those two are scoundrels! The problems between you two are all their doing.]

One was after my dad's looks, and the other coveted the inheritance my grandfather left to my mom—they're both scoundrels!

Song Yuanqing glanced approvingly at the baby in his arms.

There's an old saying that's certainly true: those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly.

Even though Song Yuanqing graduated from a world-class university, she still tends to view those she considers close with idealized perspectives.

Now, Ye Zhi's words had truly enlightened her.

Although Chen Zhaodi had taken meticulous care of her since childhood, now that I think about it carefully, there was always a hint of impatience in her eyes.

Her longing for maternal love since childhood blinded her.

Chen Zhaodi indulged her young and ignorant daughter's drinking and smoking, and spoke sweet words to her father, begging for his forgiveness.

The Song family has family rules. Her mother died in a drunk driving accident after her father drank alcohol. Miraculously, her father was unharmed, but her mother, who was sitting in the passenger seat, died on the spot.

Then, Chen Zhaodi took advantage of her father's depressed state to provide him with attentive companionship and successfully became his stepmother.

There must be more to this story.

Her father was overworked, and she had a big fight with him because of her rebellious youth. She threatened to move out and sever her relationship with her father, and she did just that.

Her father suffered a cerebral hemorrhage the day he found out she had moved out, and he is still bedridden.

Every time she tried to visit her father, Song Ranran would stop her, citing the old man's reluctance to see her.

It's also her fault for not recognizing people properly.

Song Ranran was not originally a child of the Song family; she was brought into the family by Chen Zhaodi after marriage.

They pretended to be close sisters, but what happened? After she went through so much hardship to give birth to her child, she told Ye Jingyu that she had worked hard.

The nanny she hired didn't take good care of the child, and her daughter was almost kidnapped.

Haha, she really is a good stepmother and a good sister.

Ye Jingyu directly grasped what he considered to be the key point in Ye Zhi's words.

The discord between him and Song Yuanqing was caused by this mother and daughter in front of him!

The two were childhood sweethearts, deeply in love in their youth.

Looking back now, it's clear that his relationship with Yuan Qing began to crack after he rose to prominence and became the richest man in the country.

I initially thought it was because he was too busy and neglected to take care of her.

So, it turns out someone was pulling strings behind the scenes.

"Brother Jingyu? That's disgusting. He's a month younger than her."
