769 A Million Times for You 131 (2/2)
”I am. Don't you find him very adorable?” he said with a chuckle.
”No matter how adorable he may be, he's still someone else's child. Our baby is going to be very adorable too. I was just telling Sister earlier that I'm planning to bear more children in the future. How does four sound?” Lin Shishi asked, holding onto his arm.
”That's too many.”
”How about three? Are three too many?” Lin Shishi asked, cocking her head to the side to face him.
He kept his eyes fixed on the road ahead and answered perfunctorily, ”That's fine.”
”Three it shall be, then. It's best if we end up having two sons and one daughter, just like Mother-in-law did. That'll be perfect.”
”…”
Once they got inside the car, An Xiaoning and Jin Yiheng looked at each other. While helping him buckle up, An Xiaoning asked, ”Did that Uncle ask you about anything just now?”
”Yes.”
”What did he ask about?” An Xiaoning probed anxiously.
”Uncle's questions were so strange. He asked me if you and I have stayed together recently.”
”How… did you answer him?”
”I told him truthfully that you didn't stay with me…”
”That's good. What else did he ask you?” she asked, feeling slightly relieved.
”He asked about why I wasn't staying with you and I said it was because you slept with Daddy.”
An Xiaoning was robbed of her speech as she turned pale immediately. ”Did you really say that?” she questioned, her voice quivering a little.
”Yes.” Noticing that she seemed infuriated, Jin Yiheng lowered his voice gradually and said, ”He even asked when was it that you slept with Daddy and I told him that you did last night.”
An Xiaoning flew into a rage. How could he betray his parents like that!?!
”Mommy, you're angry…”
”Did I teach you to reveal such private matters to others?”
”Mommy, I'm sorry,” Jin Yiheng apologized, staring at her with a look of grievance in his eyes.
”Will apologizing turn back time?” she snapped, giving him the side eye.
”No.”
She absolutely regretted sleeping over at Wei Ni Estate last night. What she regretted most was not heeding Tuoba Gucheng's warning. I wonder what he's going to do to me.
But it's all too late now.
Displeasure was written all over An Xiaoning's face when they arrived back in Wei Ni Estate, for her fury had yet to fade.
Jin Qingyan walked toward her and asked, ”What's wrong? Why do you look so cross?”
An Xiaoning glanced at her son before explaining, ”We visited the Lin family and the people from the Autumn Palace happened to be there too. I then went out for a walk with Lin Shishi, after which I saw Tuoba Gucheng carrying Yiheng in his arms. On the way home, I asked Yiheng if Tuoba Gucheng had asked him about anything. Get Yiheng to explain the rest, I'm going home now.”
…
”Ah! Daddy, I won't dare to do it again!”
”Daddy's going to murder me! Help!”
”Ah! Daddy!!!”
”It hurts, Daddy, please have mercy on me!”
”Ow…”
After the interrogation, Jin Qingyan dragged Jin Yiheng into the master's bedroom on the second floor and began caning him. Despite having caned him brutally, he still refused to stop, causing the latter to bawl loudly with tears.
