SWG Chapter 79

Chapter 79

After the first snow, it continued to snow intermittently for several days. The thing Xiao Wenyu had been worried about finally happened on the day the weather cleared up after the snow.

It was Lin Simu’s mother, Lin Y Nan, who called her. It was in the evening, when Ruan Shengyi was holding a fairy tale book she had scavenged from somewhere, telling stories to An Qi, and insisted that the little one move and respond to her story.

But the little one was just unwilling to move. She would probably fall asleep before finishing a story, not to mention feeling any fetal movement, not even the feeling of bubbles. So the other person would talk for a while and then pat her belly, trying to wake up the sleeping person, but to no avail, she would continue to talk, falling into a dead cycle.

It was hard to tell who was the kindergarten kid.

Xiao Wenyu simply leaned against the headboard, reading her book in silence, ignoring the woman who was particularly childish tonight.

Ruan Shengyi propped herself up, and after a long while, said gloomily, “Why doesn’t she like to move so much? Is it because you don’t like to move either, Xiao Boss?”

Xiao Wenyu then smacked her with the book. Ruan Shengyi laughed and rolled half a circle, dodging the weapon, and said, “Did I say something wrong? It’s obviously true! And, Xiao Boss, can you tell me why you don’t gain weight even though you don’t like to move? How can I feed you to make you gain weight, at least a little bit?”

“It’s good not to gain weight,” Xiao Wenyu glared at her.

Was gaining weight a good thing? She always hoped she would gain weight. If her belly grew too much, she would ask Ruan Shengyi about the stretch marks that would appear on her belly.

Being prepared and aware was being prepared and aware, but this kind of thing… of course, it was best not to gain weight. She saw people online saying that many people didn’t gain weight, praying it wouldn’t happen to her. Always hoping she would gain weight, hmph.

Ruan Shengyi touched her head and smiled, then flipped over and got out of bed. “I’ll go get the essential oil. You sit for a while.”

When she came back, Xiao Wenyu was answering the phone, her expression slightly uneasy. She quietly tiptoed over, and heard an unfamiliar, somewhat elderly voice on the phone, tentatively asking Xiao Wenyu if they could meet.

Ruan Shengyi mouthed, “Who is it?”

Xiao Wenyu signaled her to be patient, and said coldly, “Aunt Lin, I don’t want to meet with anyone from your family.”

Ruan Shengyi understood. It was someone from the Lin family, which meant that Lin Simu must have seen them that night and spread the news, at least to her mother.

Xiao Wenyu pondered for a moment, turned on the speakerphone, and let Ruan Shengyi hear the bottomless complaints of this family.

She silently twisted open the bottle cap, pulled open Xiao Wenyu’s clothes, rolled the essential oil in her hand, and then pressed it on her slightly curved abdomen, gently massaging it.

Xiao Wenyu bit her lip and looked at her, still having to deal with the complaining woman on the phone. After slowly exhaling, she said in a calm voice, “No matter what you say, I won’t meet you.”

Lin Y Nan paused, suppressed her resentment, and said, “Chuncheng is only so big. I think it’s better for us to take the initiative to discuss meeting.”

“Are you threatening me?”

“Can I be a threat to you?”

Xiao Wenyu pursed her lips, and the hand massaging her belly stopped. The air fell into a cold silence.

After a long while, Ruan Shengyi said softly, “Then let’s meet.”

Xiao Wenyu looked at her in surprise. The other woman smiled slightly, signaling her not to worry.

Obviously, the person on the other end of the phone was even more surprised, opening her mouth, unable to say another word for a long time.

Xiao Wenyu sighed and said, “I respect my elders. You decide the time and place. See you later.”

Ruan Shengyi propped her head up with the back of her hand, and said unhappily, “This hair, it looks inexplicably like bleached hair.”

“Isn’t that just right?” Xiao Boss stretched out her arm and hooked her neck, coquettishly saying, “I’m bringing a bleached hair girl to shock everyone.”

“And then let the Lin family laugh at how your aesthetic has declined to such an extent that you don’t even pick people after being hurt so badly. A bleached hair girl who hasn’t even been to college can attract your heart, tsk tsk tsk.”

Xiao Wenyu laughed, “So what? They despise bleached hair, but I like the Ruan Boss who can still shake for 15 minutes after scraping ice hockey, is there a conflict?”

The air was silent for a moment. Ruan Shengyi stared at her, her gaze shifting from a pair of smiling eyes to moist red lips, and then she said, “I’m going to wash my hands.”

“Okay, come back and sleep after you wash,” Xiao Wenyu said.

“……?”

Xiao Wenyu looked at the frozen person with a smile, “What’s wrong? Why aren’t you going to wash?”

“…” Ruan Shengyi bit her lip and looked at her. If she continued to talk, this woman would say her set of heresies again. In short, she hadn’t played enough of the apology game, so she couldn’t continue to the next step.

Hehe, she understood now, this person was not sincerely apologizing, she clearly wanted to force her to bow her head.

But the woman pulled up her clothes, raised her leg and lightly kicked her side, and said in a warm voice, “Aren’t you going? If you don’t go, remember to wash the sheets tomorrow, your hand is full of oil.”

Ruan Shengyi was defeated, and said sullenly, “Go, I’ll go, okay!”

So the other person laughed even more, completely unable to hold back.

*

A few days later, Lin Y Nan sent the address for the meeting.

She did something sensible and didn’t choose to meet on the weekend when there was a lot of traffic. After all, everyone was born doing business, and they had some idea of the right time.

On Monday, the streets were quiet, and the restaurant where they agreed to meet was also quiet, with only a table inside making a little noise.

Xiao Wenyu walked over with her bag, and Ruan Shengyi followed behind her. When she sat down, she naturally helped her sit down, and took her bag and clothes, draping them aside, before sitting down herself.

The gray glasses on the bridge of her nose made her look cold, and a light push on the middle frame added a bit of an unapproachable feeling.

She specifically put on the thickest cotton-padded jacket today, to match a gray shirt with casual pants, sitting next to Xiao Wenyu, she became her most silent and gentle bodyguard.

Xiao Wenyu herself was also wearing a white shirt with a khaki skirt, with a khaki cardigan vest on the outside, just enough to cover her not-so-obvious abdomen. Her hair was also in a lively fishtail braid, with a milky white silk scarf hanging from the end.

The whole person was so fresh and lively. Sitting across from Lin Y Nan, it was even more piercing to her heart, letting her see how lively and vivid she should be without the restraints of the Lin family.

Of course, Ruan Shengyi also had some ideas in this, but she didn’t want to be in the limelight, she just leaned aside silently, observing the situation in front of her.

Lin Y Nan finally couldn’t help but spoke first, “Xiao Yu, Simu said you have a baby, is… is it true?”

From the moment Xiao Wenyu came in, she had been trying to see clearly the figure hidden by the skirt, but Xiao Wenyu was already thin, and the months were not long, so it was not very clear. She had to bite the bullet and ask.

Xiao Wenyu didn’t avoid it, and nodded, “It’s true.”

Lin Y Nan’s eyes lit up slightly.

Although Xiao Wenyu’s family was not as wealthy as theirs, it was enough to pay off some foreign debt. If she could use this child to bring her back, then maybe she could get her Simu out of prison.

She was so excited that her tongue was tied, stammering, “Then, then this child, the child…”

Ruan Shengyi chuckled, put the two people’s clasped hands on the table, and said coldly, “I’m sorry, although Xiao Boss and your daughter have a nominal marriage relationship for a long time, but… who told you not to cherish her, to ruin her and her family like that? When the child is a full moon old, if you are still in Chuncheng or Beishi, I will send you wedding candies.”

What a joke, they were all mixed up in the business world, who couldn’t see through whom, whose little thoughts!

Her voice was already crisp and somewhat cold, and now the words she said made Lin Y Nan feel like she had fallen into an ice cellar, her lips trembling.

After a long time, Lin Y Nan said in a trembling voice, “Xiao Yu, you… you wouldn’t be such a child, you are a good child, right?”

Xiao Wenyu sneered and asked back, “What is a good child? What is your definition of a good child in your heart? Lin Simu was messing around outside, and you and everyone in your family hid it from me and deceived me, and even when she chased after me to insult me, did you ever think that I was a good child, that I shouldn’t have experienced these things?”

“Now, I finally have a new family, a new lover, and even my own baby, and you stand up and say that what I’m doing is not the behavior of a good child, haha, you are so ridiculous. Do you mean that I should remain chaste for Lin Simu, that piece of trash, for the rest of my life and wait for her to change her mind to be a good girl? Hehe, if you haven’t woken up from your dream, go back and look at your family’s bills.”

Lin Y Nan’s lips trembled even more, and she murmured, “Xiao Yu.”

“You are not worthy of calling me by my name with my mother’s title, I came to see you today just to end everything completely, not to give you a chance to get close to me, there will never be this chance, not now, not in the future.”

Xiao Wenyu retorted sharply, let out a sigh of relief, and slowly leaned back. An arm was right there, just wrapping around her waist, patting her side, conveying warmth and peace of mind.

She pressed that hand and said silently that she was fine.

Lin Y Nan finally, finally, sighed heavily.

Before she could speak, a girl’s figure rushed over from not far away, even knocking over a pot of water, soaking half of her body, but she still gasped and shouted, “I don’t believe it! You, you must be lying to us! And you, does it feel good to be a mommy? Why are you helping her to deceive us? I know there is a technique called amniocentesis, which can be done in the womb…”

Pa.

A cold slap.

Xiao Wenyu was not angry when Lin Siyu said nonsense, she turned her head to look at Ruan Shengyi, and that person also showed a playful expression like she was looking at a dog, but when she said those boundless words, Xiao Wenyu leaned over and almost instantly sent a slap out.

The slap made Lin Siyu stunned for a long time without recovering.

Xiao Wenyu’s face turned cold, “Are you awake enough? If not, stretch out the other half of your face as well.”

Lin Siyu’s lips trembled, and she shouted, “You’re guilty! You definitely don’t dare to do it! It’s impossible for you, you were clearly not familiar with each other at that time, it’s impossible!”

This time it was Ruan Shengyi who slapped her on the other half of her face. Of course, she was met with Lin Y Nan’s exasperated warning expression, but she just raised her five fingers and gently waved her hand, leisurely saying, “Speaking without thinking, you deserve to be beaten.”

“It’s too meaningless to chat with your family. Lin Simu is a low-IQ idiot without quality, you are a reckless idiot, and your little daughter is even more extreme, she has already shown her superb potential as a bad girl before she has grown up.”

“I am very optimistic about your family’s future, but we will not participate. Xiao Boss, let’s go.”

Ignoring Lin Y Nan trembling with anger, and ignoring Lin Siyu who was already acting shamelessly, the two supported each other, bypassed this family of extremes, and left the private room.

Behind them, Lin Siyu murmured, “Sister-in-law, didn’t you, especially, especially like me.”

The person who used to hold her on her lap and tell her stories and draw with her seemed to have changed, but looking at the person who was clearly as fresh as when they first met, it seemed that she hadn’t changed.

Just, left.

Xiao Wenyu took two steps, remembered something, and returned, looking at Lin Y Nan, she said calmly, “Was it you who arranged Zhuge Jing’s bag snatching in Beishi? Thank you, otherwise I really wouldn’t have this opportunity to make her owe me a favor, let alone the chance to really send Lin Simu in.”

Besides, how could it be such a coincidence that after she left, the headquarters came to check the asset risks and tax issues?

Xiao Wenyu smiled, held Ruan Shengyi’s hand tightly, and never looked back.
