Chapter 455: Chapter 448: Enlightenment
Wu Chengzu walked over, clearly seeing the disgust in Leng Yichenās eyes toward Wu Jingjing, and subtly pulled his daughter away, bringing her to his side. He looked straight at Leng Yichen, but his words were directed at Bai Yiran.
"Yiran, what a coincidence to meet you here."
Bai Yiranās expression was somewhat strained. Wu Jingjing had just hugged her too tightly, causing a slight tension in her waist and abdomen.
"What a coincidence indeed." It was Leng Yichen who replied.
Wu Chengzu raised an eyebrow, showing no sign of embarrassment.
Xiao Lang saw Wu Jingjing and was very happy. He went up to her and held her hand, "Sister, when will you come to play at my house again? Iāve moved, and you havenāt been to my new house yet."
"And!" Xiao Lang ran back to Bai Yiranās side, reached out to hold Bai Yiranās hand, "My mom has a baby now, soon Iāll have a little sister, and then the three of us can play together!"
Upon hearing Xiao Langās words, Wu Jingjing couldnāt feel happy at all. She thought to herself, now that Bai Yiran has her own child, she would like her even less. Suddenly, Wu Jingjing felt an unusual suffocation inside, staring at Bai Yiranās belly with an odd expression.
Bai Yiran felt uncomfortable being stared at by Wu Jingjing. She instinctively placed her hand on her stomach but showed no waves on her face.
Wu Chengzu glanced at Bai Yiranās hand on her belly and smiled, "So youāre pregnant, congratulations to Yiran and Mr. Leng."
Bai Yiranās pregnancy surprised Wu Chengzu. Initially, Chen Bei had sent Chen Zhu to follow Bai Yiran, and Chen Zhu came back only saying Bai Yiran went to the hospital for a checkup without specifying what for, so Wu Chengzu didnāt pay much attention to it.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a pregnancy.
This news isnāt very pleasant...
Because there were children present, Leng Yichen didnāt speak much with Wu Chengzu, or rather he disdained talking to him at all.
Wu Chengzu also understood well the disdain Leng Yichen had for him, yet despite this, his face maintained a smile, nodding to Bai Yiran, "We wonāt disturb your family of three having lunch, Jingjing has a tutoring session in the afternoon."
"I see~" Bai Yiran looked at Wu Jingjing, "Then you should focus on the class and listen to the teacher carefully."
This was the first sentence Bai Yiran said to Wu Jingjing since entering the restaurant, and Wu Jingjing immediately smiled and promised to listen carefully.
Sometimes, Wu Chengzu really admired Bai Yiran because a single sentence from her could change Wu Jingjing, or perhaps the reason Wu Jingjing opposed him so much might stem from Bai Yiran.
As long as Bai Yiran was around, Wu Jingjing would become exceptionally obedient and sensible, displaying the innocence and romance unique to young girls.
In the car on the way back, Wu Jingjing sat beside Wu Chengzu, thinking for a long time before she asked, "I donāt like Sister Yi Ranās husband."
Wu Chengzu was startled, then laughed, "Yes, I donāt like him either."
Wu Jingjing had always called Bai Yiran Sister Yi Ran. Previously, Wu Chengzu didnāt think much of it, but now he found it somewhat off-putting. He was Wu Jingjingās father, while Bai Yiran was her older sister, which sounded chaotic.
"In the future, donāt call Bai Yiran Sister anymore." Wu Chengzu spoke calmly, "Call her Aunt."
Wu Jingjing looked at her dad, feeling happy inside. She knew that by saying this, her dadās mind had opened up.
