Xie Yuansheng was very confused as to why would Feng Xinying leave when he had said that he was coming to pick her up. He wanted to leave but Shu Ning stopped him, "Brother Yuansheng, mother is getting tea. Please sit for some more time. Have tea and go."
Feng Jiao Long came with tea in the main hall and served it to Xie Yuansheng so he had to sit. He had tea with the mother and daughter. They talked about the old times when they used to visit the Feng Mansion and talk for hours with Xie Weihui. During those times, Feng Zhantian would also join them often during the talks. Xie Yuansheng joked on how little Shu Ning was and how easily she would get riled at smallest of the issues.
Once again a few pictures were taken and they were sent to Feng Xinying.
An hour later Xie Yuansheng left for home. Overall he was happy to have caught up with Feng Jiao Long and her family.
When he reached home, Lu Boyun informed him that the young miss was feeling terrible. She had been vomiting a lot. Xie Yuansheng ran upstairs to the bedroom taking two stairs at a time. He made a mental note of s.h.i.+fting their bedroom on the ground floor because it was not safe for Feng Xinying to go up and down the stairs now.
When he reached there, he heard her retching in the bathroom. He went there and saw her bent over the sink. Immediately he came behind her and stroked her. Feng Xinying looked up at him. Her eyes were red due to tears that had formed because of her condition. Once she rinsed her mouth, he pa.s.sed her the towel. He was getting extremely worried about her now. She dried her face and went outside.
Xie Yuansheng followed her and asked, "Xinying, do you want to have something? All that you have eaten is out of your tummy."
Feng Xinying went to lie in bed without speaking a word. She turned her back on him and closed her eyes. He didn"t disturb her. He went to take a shower and change. When he came back to the room, he saw her still lying in the bed with one hand on her forehead. There were tears coming out of her eyes.
Xie Yuansheng went to her and sat beside her. He removed the hand from her forehead and wiped her tears. Then he lied beside and circled his arms around her chest and said, "Baby, if you won"t tell me what is wrong with you, I might have to learn wizardry to cast spells on you." He kissed her wet cheeks and added, "I hate it when you cry. Please tell me darling what is wrong. It is not right for our baby."
Feng Xinying took a deep breath and said, "Xie Yuansheng, did you meet Shu Ning?"
"Yes, I went there for you. Why did you come back when I was coming to pick you up? I asked you to wait for me. I wanted to ask you this ever since I came, but then I thought you were sick, so didn"t want to disturb you," he replied stroking her hands.
"Do you know Shu Ning from a long time?" she asked pensively.
"Umm… yes… aunt used to bring her often to the house when you were not there," he replied.
"Did you like her?"
"Who? Shu Ning? Haha. Yes, she is a cute child!" he replied with a chuckle.
"Do you have feelings for her?" she asked looking straight up at the ceiling.
Xie Yuansheng was shocked. "What kind of feelings are you talking about Xinying?"
Feng Xinying took her phone from the bedside table. She unlocked it and showed him the pictures that were sent to her. Xie Yuansheng was shaken. He took the phone from her hand and saw his picture with his hand on Shu Ning"s chest. Who dared to snap those pictures?
"Tell me everything about it Feng Xinying. Don"t hide a detail," he said in a very strict voice. There was something that he was missing. He found it very odd that Feng Xinying would come on her own even though he had asked her to stay back.
"Shu Ning said that your aunt promised your hand in hers," said Feng Xinying and handed him the letter that she had brought from there.
When Xie Yuansheng read it, his face became cold. He folded the letter and kept it aside.
"Shu Ning is insisting that I divorce you and you marry her else she would go to the court with that letter," said Feng Xinying feeling sick all of a sudden all over again. "When I went there, she told me that you liked her a lot and that you also offered her a pearl necklace in exchange of having s.e.x with her." Feng Xinying became restless. "She said that you touched her when she used to swim in the swimming pool here."
Xie Yuansheng clasped Feng Xinying"s chest tightly and then kissed her on her shoulder. "How is The Golden City project coming up?" he asked changing the topic suddenly.
"Nicely…"
"Have you been able to come up with the designs for the movie halls?" he asked.
"Yes…"
"When is your movie getting released?"
"In a month"s time…"
"I want that your movie The Golden Flower to be the first movie to be screened in all the movie theaters of The Golden City," he declared as he kissed her again. He turned her around and held her close to his body. She buried her face deep in his neck and smelled him. "I love you Feng Xinying," he said and stroked his wife"s hair with his hand. He knew how agitated she must have been.
Feng Xinying closed her eyes. She wanted to forget what happened during the day. Soon she slept off with him holding her the entire night.
When Feng Xinying opened her eyes the next day, she was very hungry. She saw that Xie Yuansheng wasn"t there on the bed. She went to the bathroom to get ready and by the time she was back in the room, he had made Tom Yum soup for her, which she found very light and tasty.
Xie Yuansheng watched her having it. When she finished, he took his phone out, and called someone. "Aunt Feng Jiao Long…"
