Chapter 1289 - Do You Believe Her Nonsense? (1/2)

She turned around in a daze and saw that it was Lu Jinnan. She asked, “Have you settled everything?”

Lu Jinnan nodded and planted a kiss on Bai Xiaonian’s forehead. “Mm, it’s settled…”

Bai Xiaonian was sound asleep. Seeing Lu Jinnan lying next to her, she squirmed into his arms and closed her eyes. Smelling the scent on Lu Jinnan, she frowned and said, “You’re using my shower gel again…”

Lu Jinnan was speechless.

Why am I being wronged!?

He was afraid that the lights would disturb Bai Xiaonian’s sleep, so he quietly went into the bathroom to get some shower gel and shampoo without turning the lights on, then went to the guest room to take a shower. As a man, Lu Jinnan didn’t know which shower gel belonged to whom. So long as he could use it to wash himself clean, who cared whose shower gel it was!

Seeing that his little bride had already plunged into his arms and fallen asleep, Lu Jinnan didn’t dare to move his arms. He just hugged her and let her sleep in his arms.

Early the next morning, when Bai Xiaonian woke up, she saw Lu Jinnan and asked, “When did you come back?”

Lu Jinnan was speechless.

“Last night, you even asked me how things were handled. Don’t you remember anything about it?” Lu Jinnan rubbed his numb arm.

Bai Xiaonian shook her head. “Then… how did you handle it?”

“Xiao Bei was bailed out, but Cai Jingyao hasn’t completely cleaned up the mess. It’ll take a month…” Lu Jinnan got up.

“A month?”

“Mm!” Lu Jinnan nodded. He unbuttoned his pajamas and went to get his shirt. “Cai Jingyao said that if Dad and I still can’t accept her in a month, she’ll leave on her own…”

Bai Xiaonian’s eyes narrowed. “Do you believe her nonsense?”

“I have to give Xiao Bei some face. If she doesn’t leave in a month… I’ll help her leave!” Lu Jinnan spoke without a hint of emotion. He talked about Cai Jingyao as if he was talking about something insignificant.

Although she knew that Lu Jinnan wouldn’t fall for trash like Cai Jingyao, Bai Xiaonian still felt uncomfortable…

“She said that she’ll need Dad and you to accept her in a month. I have a feeling that she’ll come up with this excuse to get close to you?” Bai Xiaonian thought about it, then saw that Lu Jinnan had already put on his shirt. “I feel that it’s very possible. You need to have a plan.”

“What do you mean? This month, she won’t be able to see my dad and me! I’ll just let her and Xiao Bei have a good time! Xiao Bei has been well protected since he was young, and he lacks wisdom. I feel that this might not be a bad thing for him! That’s why I agreed to that woman’s request.” Still buttoning his shirt, Lu Jinnan turned around and said, “I have to make a trip to the company today. I’ve got a lot of things to settle, and there’s still a meeting!”

When Bai Xiaonian heard this, she looked at Lu Jinnan pitifully. “Then today… aren’t I the only one at home? Look… I originally wanted to work, but you didn’t let me… Xiao Nuan was still working when she was pregnant. If you leave now, I’ll be bored!”

Lu Jinnan gazed at the displeased little woman on the bed dotingly. He walked to the side of the bed and sat down. “You’re pregnant now, so it’s only right for you to be more careful. I can’t take any risk when it comes to you and the child.”

Bai Xiaonian pursed her lips and nodded, but the unhappiness in her eyes didn’t dissipate.
