“So I didn’t do anything during that period. We wanted to do something to her when she returned home. But she had already become cautious and suspected that Yang Wenshu had a hand in Huang Liyu’s death. She even argued with Shangguan Zheng many times about it. Yang Wenshu was afraid that Shangguan Ning’s death would have exposed the matter, so I didn’t do anything more to her.”
Mu Qing drew in a deep breath after Black Wind’s words.
He didn’t expect that Shangguan Ning’s life had been so twisted and terrible, and her childhood had been full of darkness. She had witnessed her mother killing herself in front of her at the age of ten and the murderer had been the person who lived with her. If she had not been kind enough to feed the stray cats and dogs, she would have been dead ages ago.
No wonder Jing Yichen wanted to punish Yang Wenshu so badly. He had suspected her since long.
Jing Yichen listened to Black Wind with no expression on his face. But his heart was torn apart into pieces, causing suffocating pain.
His wife, Ning had been treated so badly by these sc.u.mbags. But she was still a sunny, happy woman who loved life and was still kind enough to feed the stray cats and dogs. She was pure and had never been polluted by their filthiness.
All of a sudden, he started to miss her. He wanted to scoop her into his arms and to kiss her and take away all her pain.
He stood up and said –”resume tomorrow.” Then he strode out of the room.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing couldn’t help but exchange a look with each other when they saw him walking away anxiously. They were very surprised.
They had never seen Jing Yichen panicking before this.
Jing Yichen drove his Aston Martin at the maximum speed and reached home within ten minutes.
He opened the bedroom door and saw Shangguan Ning huddled on the bed. She was frowning in her sleep.
Jing Yichen took off his overcoat and made his way inside the blanket. Then he took her into his arms, gently.
Shangguan Ning was not in a deep sleep, so she woke up as soon as he touched her.
She opened her drowsy eyes and caught sight of him. She snuggled into his arms and found a comfortable spot. Then she mumbled in a lazy voice, “Where did you go so late at night? I couldn’t sleep well while you weren’t with me…”
Jing Yichen kissed her forehead and offered an arm to her as the pillow. Then he took hold of her slender waist and said gently, “I went out to complete an errand. I will always be by your side and sleep with you.”
Shangguan Ning mumbled again, “I like it when you let me to sleep in your arms. It feels safe…”
Jing Yichen’s eyes were filled with tears because of what she said. He replied “You will always be safe with me beside you for the rest of your life…”
Shangguan Ning smiled upon hearing his words. Then she went back to sleeping.
It was Sat.u.r.day the following day, and what surprised Shangguan Ning was that the President, who worked even on the weekends, was still asleep!
The morning sunlight shone into the bedroom through the light blue curtains, casting the gleam upon Jing Yichen’s perfect features.
Shangguan Ning lay in his arms comfortably. Seeing him fast asleep right in front of her eyes, she moved her fingers to draw a silhouette upon his face gently. As soon as her fingers touched his s.e.xy lips, her heart skipped a bit and she gave him a sneaky kiss.
However, the moment she finished, she heard a low and s.e.xy voice speaking, “My Princess, are you trying to wake up your prince in this manner?”
Startled by him, Shangguan Ning reacted as if she had just been caught committing a crime. “I am a Queen and I can kiss whenever I want to.”
Jing Yichen chuckled. He opened his eyes and patted her messy hair. Speaking in an indulgent tone, he said, “Okay, okay, Queen, I am your most royal ride. Now you can come and ride me.”
Shangguan Ning got embarra.s.sed. She pinched hard on his waist and spoke in an unfriendly manner after hearing his exaggerated cry of pain, “Nonsense! So early in the morning. You will get no breakfast.”
Jing Yichen turned himself around and pressed her under him as he said in a flirty tone, “It is okay. I don’t want breakfast. I want to eat you!”
“No, I … am not yet done with my period. Get up and eat breakfast,” Shangguan Ning got defeated.
Jing Yichen squinted and said calmly, “My Queen, do you know that this lie can easily be exposed. We can check right now if you are done with your period, can’t we?”
He said as he started to reach for the bottom of her dress.
He ma.s.saged and touched her, bringing a s.h.i.+ver to her body. In no time, her tenderly white skin had turned rosy, looking extremely tempting.
“Baby, why are you still so shy? You have made me lose my self-control totally…”
…
Fun and loving sounds filled up the room, heating the morning air and making the Sun become shy and red.
Jing Yichen’s heart softened at the sight of the woman in his arms who was huddled there like a kitten. Her face was rosy and her eyelashes trembled slightly. He picked her up from the bed and walked into the bathroom, naked.
It was almost ten o’clock when Shangguan Ning finished with him and sat down to eat breakfast.
She was tired. She almost couldn’t find the energy to even pick up the chopsticks.
Jing Yichen brought her on his thighs, lifted the bowl and the spoon to her mouth and said happily, “I can feed you if you are too tired. Open your mouth, come on.”
Shangguan Ning glared at him.
“I will eat it myself!”
“Come on, open your mouth.”
“…..”
“Don’t want it? Does this mean that you want me to eat you, again?”
Shangguan Ning surrendered instantly. “I will eat. Feed me now!”
Post breakfast, Shangguan Ning nearly suffered from indigestion due to Jing Yichen’s antics.
After breakfast, Jing Yichen took hold of Shangguan Ning’s soft hand and led her to the study. Seeing her look happy, he suddenly had no idea how to tell her the truth about Huang Liyu.
When she saw him silent and serious, Shangguan Ning couldn’t help but ask, “What is wrong? What happened?”
She knew Jing Yichen well and knew that he didn’t usually hesitate. She started to feel uneasy.
Jing Yichen drew in a deep breath and decided to tell his wife the truth. She had waited and searched for the truth for so long now. She had the right to know all about that matter. She was not a fragile woman, and wouldn’t collapse however cruel the truth was. Besides, he was right next to her.
“Ning, I have found the murderer who caused your mother’s suicide.”
