Chapter 66 - Inviting Chen Qian
Chapter 66 Inviting Chen Qian
Mo’s Mansion was quiet as before and the garden was full of warm sunshine. Li Yunhong held Xiangyan pleasantly on the deck chair.
At this time, a woman paced back and forth in front of the door, getting much attention from passers-by.
Chen Qian dressed her hair in the mirror, took a few deep breaths and then stepped into the door.
The courtyard was very quiet and Chen Qian could only lower her voice when she walked in.
“Auntie?”
Li Yunhong stood up and looked for the voice.
“Chen Qian? Why did she come here?”
Li Yunhong felt embarrassed with the baby in her arms.
“Qianqian, you…”
Chen Qian pretended to know nothing about the baby and smiled as before.
Li Yunhong called the nanny to take the baby away and thought that this may make Chen Qian feel better.
“Auntie, I come here for one thing.” Chen Qian’s eyes were full of sincerity.
“I thought for a long time that I can accept the baby because I love Yichen and I will tolerate all the things about him.”
Li Ling just came out of the room and put a pot of tea in front of the two people gently. She couldn’t help watching Chen Qian when she heard it.
“She is no longer haughty.” Li Ling thought.
Chen Qian calmed herself down when she saw Li Ling, and then took a sip of tea unmindfully.
Chen Qian begun to talk after Li Ling left.
“Auntie, please forgive me for my overreaction at that day. It is just because I love Yichen very much but he suddenly had a baby with another woman, so I…”
Li Yunhong looked at Chen Qian surprisingly and explained to her, “Don’t say that, Qianqian. I am very happy that you would accept Xiangyan. You are so generous and never let me down.”
Chen Qian was delighted when she heard it.
“Obviously, I made a right choice. The baby is not a big deal since his mother had died. Nothing would trouble me as long as I marry Mo Yichen.” She thought.
“Auntie, I really love Yichen and will never give up. I would treat Xiangyan as my natural son. But…”
Chen Qian was restless and her mood was like the floating tea above the water.
“What’s the matter?” Li Yunhong asked.
“You know that Yichen never think about marrying me. I hope you can help me and let him accept me.”
Li Yunhong never thought that Chen Qian could talk to her calmly and certainly would like to help Chen Qian.
“Don’t worry, Qianqian. I always regard you as the daughter-in-law of Mo’s family. I didn’t expect that Yichen would have a son but I’m very glad that you could accept it. I will do my best to persuade Yichen.”
“Woo-woo…” The baby was crying at that moment. Li Ling held the baby and came out hurriedly.
“What happened?” Li Yunhong stood up nervously.
“I don’t know. Nothing happened but he suddenly cried so loudly.” Li Ling looked at Chen Qian subconsciously.
The indifference was full of Chen Qian’s eyes. But she changed quickly, “Children are all like this and we just lull him.”
Chen Qian picked a flower from the flowering shrubs and handed it to Xiangyan.
Xiangyan waved his tiny hand and knocked the flower off. Others didn’t know if he was deliberate or unmeant, but Chen Qian felt embarrassed.
“Well, he must be hungry and just hold him back.” Li Yunhong said to Li Ling to break the ice.
Then she explained to Chen Qian, “No offence. He is just a baby…”
“I know, auntie. It would take time for him to accept me. I will try my best. Don’t worry.”
Hearing Chen Qian’s words, Li Yunhong nodded with satisfaction.
“There will be a banquet in couple of days to introduce Xiangyan. You know that people in this social circle were complicated. He is easy to get hurt since he doesn’t have a mother.”
Li Yunhong cherished Mo Xiangyan very much.
“Yes, it is necessary.” Chen Qian agreed.
“It is also an explanation for me.” She thought.
“What about coming to the banquet? You, the daughter-in-law of Mo’s family, must be present.” Li Yunhong proposed.
“What? Shall I? Yichen won’t agree with it.”
Chen Qian was stunned for a moment and chuckled to herself.
“Don’t worry, I will tell him. What does he want since you are so perfect?” Li Yunhong promised.
“Thank you, auntie.” Chen Qian nodded to express her gratitude.
“Don’t say that. I am sorry to let you wronged and wish you would let it go.” Li Yunhong touched Chen Qian’s hands and comforted her.
Then Chen Qian left after they talked a few minutes harmoniously.
At night
Li Yunhong run to Mo Yichen happily when he just came back home.
“Chen Qian came here today and said she doesn’t mind that you have a baby. Look, she is really a perfect girl!”
Mo Yichen was stunned and frowned, “What does she want?”
“Come on, I felt guilty when she said that sincerely. I always think that she is a good girl.” Li Yunhong always praised Chen Qian.
“Mom, would you mind not to talk about her?” Mo Yichen was unpleasant, “God, she is so stubborn.”
“Come on, you are so ungrateful. A such perfect girl loves you badly. I don’t want you to regret and you must obey me at this time.”
Then Li Yunhong left since she was dissatisfied with Mo Yichen’s attitude.
Looking at the back of his mother, Mo Yichen threw the coat on the sofa and pulled the tie impatiently.
Chen Qian…
“She wouldn’t give up even if I have a baby. What should I do?”
