Chapter 1178 – How deep is your misunderstanding of me?
Xu Yuning returned to the Kang family this time, and Kang Ruicheng couldn’t wait to keep her captive as a pet.
She couldn’t step out of the front door without Consuelo’s permission, much less use the phone or the internet privately.
In order to ensure that Xu You would obediently stay in this mansion, Kang Ruicheng did not hesitate to deploy his most valued men to guard the door of the Kang family mansion day and night in shifts.
Didn’t Kang Ruicheng go to such great lengths in the hope that Xu Yuning would never be able to see Mu Sijun, including all those close to him?
However, if she attends the reception, there is a possibility that she will meet Lu Bo Yan.
Since the organizers of the reception invited him, they must have invited Lu Bo Yan as well, right?
Wouldn’t Kang Ruicheng mind if she and Lu Bo Yan met as a couple?
You have to know that Lu Bo Yan is Mu Si Jue is the best friend.
Xu Yuning looked at Kang Ruicheng half-heartedly, “Are you sure you want me to accompany you to the reception?”
“The invitation states to bring a female companion.” Kang Ruicheng looked at Xu Yuning with certainty as well as certainty, “Ah Ning, I want you to accompany me to the reception.”
Xu Yuning turned her head, avoiding Kang Ruicheng’s fiery gaze, “It’s just a request to bring a female companion, and there’s no clear requirement as to which female companion you must bring, you still have a lot of choices ……”
The implication is that Conrad City can take other women.
His female companion, it doesn’t have to be her.
“Ah Ning!” Kang Ruicheng didn’t allow Xu Yuning to escape his gaze, wrenching her face and looking at her with a burning gaze, “I only want to take you there.”
“…… “Xu Yuning seemed to feel puzzled, looking at Kang Ruicheng, hesitant to speak.
Kang Ruicheng thought that his words weren’t convincing enough and clutched Xu Yuning’s arm, seriously emphasizing, “Ah Ning, I want everyone to know – I love you, and you’ll always be the only female companion I want to take out.”
Younin Hsu: “……”
“Hee hee!”
Mu Mu was brightly eavesdropping the whole time, and when he heard this, the little kid couldn’t help but smile a little and pulled Xu Yuning’s arm, “Auntie Yuning, promise daddy! You can treat it as going out shopping ah, you can come back soon!”
Mu thought that Xu Yuning was hesitant to agree because she didn’t like that kind of occasion at the reception.
Actually, it’s not.
After receiving training from Kang Ruicheng, Xu Yuning could already adapt to any occasion and cope with it with ease.
What she was afraid of was tower after tower of wine at the reception.
She is pregnant with a child, and for the health and safety of the child, she cannot touch alcohol.
But the reception kind of occasion, she as Kang Ruicheng’s female companion, almost can not avoid drinking ……
Even if she could excuse herself, who could guarantee that Kang Ruicheng wouldn’t become suspicious?
Mu Mu saw that Xu Yuning still didn’t make a sound and pulled her hand again, “Auntie Yuning?”
Xu Yuning looked back at Kang Ruicheng, “Do you have a list of invited guests for the reception?”
A guest list was attached to the invitation, and Kang Ruicheng handed it directly to Xu Yuning.
Xu Yuning looked around and quickly saw Lu Bo Yan’s name.
If Lu Bo Yan attends the reception, the female companion he brings must be Su Jian An.
Without thinking about the drinking, this reception was an opportunity for Hsu Yuning-
Perhaps she could pass on the information she had gathered.
Kang Ruicheng noticed Xu Yuning’s gaze stopped somewhere on the guest list, and without guessing he knew that she must have seen Lu Bo Yan’s name, and snorted coldly, “That’s right, Lu Bo Yan will be attending as well.”
Xu Yuning returned the list to Kang Ruicheng, finally no longer hesitating, “I promise to attend with you.”
Kang Ruicheng’s inexplicable anger attacked his heart, his gaze like a torch staring at Xu Yuning, “Why did you suddenly change your mind?”
Xu Yuning didn’t hide it and smiled, “I’ve been here for so long, I’m happy to have the chance to see an old friend.”
“……”
Kang Ruicheng had actually guessed that Xu Yuning’s sudden change of mind was mostly due to seeing Lu Boyan’s name on the guest list and guessing that Su Jianan would also attend.
He even wondered if Xu Yuning would have other purposes.
However, since she can be so direct and honest …… perhaps he is worrying too much.
Kang Ruicheng no longer dwelled on this topic, handing Xu Yuning a large, exquisitely crafted bag, “This is the dress and shoes I had someone pick out for you, and the night after tomorrow, I want to see you wearing it.”
Xu Yuning delayed for two seconds before taking the bag, a kind smile hanging at the corner of his lips, “You’re not going to give me the chance to refuse at all, are you?”
She didn’t realize that Kang Ruicheng had already helped her prepare her clothes and shoes.
It was perfectly clear that Kang Ruicheng had made up his mind that he must bring her to the reception.
He was still the same as before, deciding on something and not giving her a chance to say “no”.
Once upon a time, she was probably blind to be attracted to a man like Kang Ruicheng.
Kang Ruicheng didn’t explain, not to mention hiding anything, looked straight at Xu Yuning and said word for word, “Ah Ning, you can never reject me!”
“……”
Xu Yuning’s entire heart inexplicably trembled, and his back unexpectedly chilled.
Kang Ruicheng s possessive gaze …… just now was too appalling.
Mu Mu realized that the atmosphere wasn’t quite right and ran out to join in the fun with a smile, “Daddy, can I come along? Well, I have a dress, so you don’t have to ask anyone to pick it out for me!”
The implication is that this baby is very provincial, you just have to be willing to take me out.
Kang Ruicheng was unprecedentedly patient with Mu Mu, looking at the little kid and explaining, “The reception is an occasion for adults, I can’t take you there. If you want to play, I’ll take you somewhere else tomorrow, is that okay?”
Mu Mu had grown up so much, Kang Ruicheng had never said that he would take him to play.
So much so that at this moment, the little kid couldn’t believe what he heard at all, a pair of ebony eyes staring wide open, and it was only after a long time that he dared to confirm, “Daddy, is it …… true what you said?”
“Of course it’s true!” Kang Ruicheng smiled at Mu Mu, his tone was a few points milder, “Where exactly we’re going, we’ll talk about it tomorrow, you go take a bath and get ready for bed first.”
“Yeah!”
Mu bounced a little and ran upstairs in high spirits.
In the large living room, only Kang Ruicheng and Xu Yuning remained.
Xu Yuning looked at Kang Ruicheng fixedly, a touch of incomprehension in her gaze, “What do you want?”
Kang Ruicheng met Xu Yuning’s gaze, his tone even more puzzled than Xu Yuning’s, “Ah Ning, what do you want to ask?”
“You know what I want to ask!” Xu Yuning’s voice suddenly drew up a tone and his gaze became intense, “Why are you suddenly doing this to Mu Mu?!”
Kang Ruicheng narrowed his pupils a bit, staring closely at Xu Yuning, shaking his head and saying, “Ah Ning, I don’t understand why you’re suddenly asking this.”
“Are you playing dumb?” Xu Yuning sneered, “It doesn’t matter, I don’t mind making it clearer – what’s your purpose for suddenly being so nice to Mu Mu?”
Kang Ruicheng had always been very strict with Mu Mu.
He was suddenly so friendly to Mu Mu and promised to take Mu Mu to play, it was hard for Xu Yuning not to suspect something.
Of course, Mu wouldn’t have any doubts.
The brat was still too young, his character still maintained its innate simplicity, he was happy to have fun, and wouldn’t even think about whether Kang Ruicheng had any other purpose.
“……”
Kang Ruicheng looked at Xu Yuning in dismay, and his gaze suddenly became complicated, or …… hurt.
That’s right. Injuries.
Xu Yuning thought that she had misread the situation, and fixing her eyes, Kang Ruicheng’s gaze did indeed reveal an unappreciated hurt.
She misunderstood Kang Ruicheng?
Unlikely.
I don’t know how long it was before Kang Ruicheng asked in a low voice, “Ah Ning, in your heart, I’m the kind of person who must have some other purpose no matter what I do, right?”
“……” Xu Yuning looked even more surprised than Kang Ruicheng, “Isn’t it? You’ve always been like this!”
“…… “Only after another long time did the corners of Kang Ruicheng’s lips rise shallowly, “Mu Mu is my son, what makes you think that I won’t treat him well?”
“……”
Suddenly, Xu Yuning didn’t know what to say.
Yeah, Kang Ruicheng is Mu Mu’s father.
Isn’t it a natural thing for a father to be kind to his children under the sun?
Where did she get the position to question Kang Ruicheng? Or rather, why is she questioning Kang Ruicheng alone?
If it was Lu Bo Yan who was good to her child, would she still have this suspicion?
When Kang Ruicheng saw Xu Yuning’s delay in speaking, his disappointment gradually transformed into anger and he yelled at Xu Yuning, “Speak!”
Xu Yuning was startled and subconsciously tried to back away.
But she knew clearly that if she backed off at this time, it would mean that she had lost.
Xu Yuning forced himself to remain calm and squeezed out a sentence, “As far as I can remember, you’ve never been nice to Mu Mu.”
Kang Ruicheng sneered, “You mean I don’t love him or value him?”
“……”
Xu Yuning looked away and didn’t say anything, equivalent to acquiescing to Kang Ruicheng’s words.
The smile on Kang Ruicheng’s face became even colder, almost squeezing out an explanation from between his teeth, “If I didn’t love him, would I give him a large villa to live in and equip him with professional maids and housekeepers? If I didn’t value him, would I send people to protect him 24 hours a day and let him grow up carefree?”
“……” Xu Yuning’s bottom breath weakened a little, “All of what you said is just what a father should do.”
“I’ve already done what a father should do, why do you still think I don’t love Mu Mu enough?” Kang Ruicheng’s voice snapped up and roared, “Ah Ning, give me an explanation!”
“……”
This time, Xu Yuning was truly frightened, and her feet timidly backed up.
Kang Ruicheng looked at Xu Yuning, the smile on his face became more and more cold: “Ah Ning, I sometimes really want to know, how deep is your misunderstanding of me?”
Xu Yuning seemed like a deer that had been pushed to the brink of extinction as his emotions slowly flared up.
She remembered many things, including the truth about her grandmother’s death – Kang Ruicheng was clearly her grandmother’s murderer, but was content to frame Mu Sijun.
The deepest evil within human nature was hidden in Musashi’s nature.
Even if he loved Mu Mu, even if he did what a father should do, it didn’t change his sins!
