Chapter 382 - The Beauty under the Moonlight
Chapter 382: The Beauty under the Moonlight
Cheng Anya returned to the room alone and sat down with an uneasy mind. She didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but she felt the baby growing in her belly. They seemed to have a connection with each other. She hadn’t felt anything special other than shock earlier on as there were many people around. However, standing alone at the balcony and looking at the moon in the sky now made her feel excited and overwhelmed.
She felt a wave of heat in her heart which seemed to be overflowing in her. A strong sense of motherhood grew and she was more moved than when she learned that she was pregnant with Ning Ning.
Maybe, it was because that was the child she and Ye Chen had after they fell in love with each other, which meant more to her than when she was pregnant with Ning Ning.
Ning Ning was her pillar of support then in a foreign country, while this child was the evidence of her love with Ah Chen. Moreover, she wasn’t sure if she could keep the baby or if the baby would be healthy. These unknown factors would make any mother pay more attention and give more love to her child.
There was no doubt about that.
The healthiness of the baby was the biggest problem at the moment.
All mothers in the world had the same mentality. They love and cherish their children and would hope that they could survive and grow up peacefully. Cheng Anya was no exception.
The moon was round that night in Riyadh. The faint moonlight that shone on the world was clear and gentle, and the whole city with bright lights was as if shrouded in the gentle embrace of a mother. She couldn’t help but pray that God would give her child a chance to live.
Cheng Anya was not a believer, but she couldn’t help thinking that if praying was really useful, she wouldn’t mind burning incense, worship Buddha, and praying sincerely every day.
“Mommy.” Ning Ning appeared quietly on the balcony and smiled softly. He had lost a lot of weight on his face and wasn’t as chubby as before. He looked like a little adult. However, as a mother, she cherished him and he’d always be childish and lovely.
“It’s so late. Why haven’t you gone to bed?” Cheng Anya was afraid that she’d hug him on impulse and widened the distance between them. Ning Ning pouted in protest unhappily. Cheng Anya glanced at him and said, “Do not protest.”
“Mommy, don’t be like this.”
“Your mommy is a natural pathogen. Stay away from me as fast as possible.” Miss Cheng rebutted. “What’s the matter? Can’t you fall asleep?”
“A little. Mommy, will I really have a sister?” The eyes of the young kid were bright and his gaze was full of pink bubbles at the mention of a sister. He was looking forward to it so much.
Cheng Anya didn’t know how to answer him. If she told the truth, she was afraid that Ning Ning would be disappointed. However, she didn’t want to lie to him as well. She hesitated for a good three seconds and decided to tell him the truth. “It’s not certain for the time being. Don’t hold too much hope. As long as Daddy and Mommy are around, we could even have a younger brother, not to mention a younger sister.”
The young kid chuckled. “Mommy, don’t be so funny, will you? Besides, I don’t want a brother. I want a sister.”
He couldn’t help but think of a phrase, ‘With love comes everything else.’
Wow!
“Well, then it’ll be a sister,” Cheng Anya said with a smile. She had wanted this child to grow up safe and sound more than the young kid. Third Young Master Ye would be surprised when he woke up. Cheng Anya guessed that he would make comments about how his hard work didn’t go in vain.
Cheng Anya was embarrassed.
“Mommy, I find you a little sexist.”
“Nonsense.” She actually liked a daughter better as she would look good. She could then dress her up and give her pretty clothes to wear, which gave her a sense of accomplishment. “I’ll like a daughter too.”
“Then, why are you always talking about a younger brother?” The young kid despised Cheng Anya and pointed out the most direct evidence. He had never heard her say that the baby was a sister. She would like a daughter? What a liar.
“Didn’t you hear what your aunt said? The tradition of the Ye family is that there will be more males than females.” Cheng Anya justified herself and it was absolutely the young kid’s fault that she valued males over females.
Only because her son was prettier and more lovely than girls.
“Then, Mommy, you would definitely give birth to a daughter if you keep getting pregnant.” Cheng Anya’s expression turned dark when the young kid seriously expressed his opinion. He had even nodded seriously and thought that his idea was very good.
“Do you think that I’m a sow? Don’t you want to live anymore?” If she could hit anyone whenever she liked, she would have slapped him.
The young kid smiled and her eyes were narrowed into a line. She was very happy. Cheng Anya’s heart felt warm and she felt less worried about the baby. “Didn’t you ever think that Mommy might not be able to protect the baby?”
“We have nothing to worry about with Bai Ye and Su Man with us.” The young kid smiled. “I believe they could turn her into Snow White even if you give birth to an Ultraman sister.”
Cheng Anya, “…”
What a strong and vivid theory and analogy.
‘Son, this is blind trust.’ Miss Cheng was speechless.
“Anyway, I hope that both of you would be safe soon. Well, before I get even with Louis,” the young kid said.
At the mention of Louis, the young kid’s voice sounded ruthless and murderous. It was as if he was covered in a coat of coldness and his dominance and murderous vibes were obvious. He could behave like this without restraining himself only in front of Cheng Anya.
“Louis…” Cheng Anya looked up at the bright moon in the sky. “Isn’t he gone?”
“I’m trying to find out. If only I could be stronger, I wouldn’t have needed to avoid and care about Mo Ye and Mo Jue,” the young kid said flatly. The reason why Louis and the Mafia could hide so perfectly was due to Mo Ye and Mo Jue’s abilities. Because they were better than him at it, he had been trying to push his limits for the past few days.
He would never give up.
“Well, know your limits and don’t push yourself too hard,” Cheng Anya said calmly. She knew that someone had to pay for Xu Nuo’s death and Ning Ning had already blamed Louis for that. He would not stop before watching Louis die together with Xu Nuo.
“You can leave Riyadh now,” Cheng Anya said. “Mommy and Daddy have no problems here. If you’re still worried, it’s the same if you ask Black Eagle and others to come over.”
“How can I do that? I can only rest assured after I confirm that both of you are safe.” The young kid smiled. “Daddy and Mommy are still number one in my heart. How can I ignore Daddy and Mommy just to take revenge on others? That’s not good.”
“Okay, stop trying to suck up. You brat, are you going to ignore your mother once you get a wife? I shall focus on training your sister in the future,” Cheng Anya said half-jokingly.
Who would have thought that the young kid didn’t deny it but said, “Woman can also forget about her mother for her husband. Mommy, don’t forget that you are like this too. You are not in the position to train my sister. If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked.”
Cheng Anya was speechless and couldn’t say a word. After a while, she said, “So, Mommy and Daddy are the saddest people in the world.”
The young kid, “…”
‘Uh… This is a little serious.’
“Mommy, I still love you the most in the entire world,” the young kid said in a serious tone.
Cheng Anya’s heart ached. Yes, she knew that her son was the one who loved her the most because the one he had loved the most was gone. Cheng Anya did not feel like her son was robbed by someone else. Instead, she was distressed and felt sorry for him.
“I see.” Cheng Anya smiled. “Darling, you are so sweet tonight.”
“I’m glad that Mommy is pregnant,” the young kid smiled and said. Cheng Anya shook her head.
“I hope your daddy will wake up tomorrow. I’m looking forward to his reaction.”
“Daddy would definitely say, ‘F***, we haven’t enjoyed much ourselves and there comes another third guest.’” The young kid imitated how Third Young Master Ye would curse perfectly. Cheng Anya laughed so hard that she almost laid on the balcony.
“Darling, your imitation was great.”
…
Su Man’s manor looked similar to a noble residence in ancient times. The courtyard had both modern and antique elements in its design. The courtyard where Su Man lived alone was mini and enclosed.
The outer design of the house also had antique elements, like a bungalow. However, it looked elegant and noble. The walls were made of white jade while the tiles were made of glass. Under the roof, there were many white jade lotus-shaped round lights that gave people the feeling of elegance.
The courtyard was full of all kinds of strange flowers and plants. The varieties were wide and weird. Bai Ye hadn’t noticed it at first, but when he did, he realized that he didn’t know the name of the random blue flower that he had picked.
He only thought that the smell in the courtyard was fragrant and refreshing.
“What flowers are they?” Bai Ye squatted down curiously and looked at it curiously. It was a bit like a rose, but it wasn’t a rose. He had never seen a purplish-blue rose before.
He was curious and wanted to reach out for it when he heard Su Man’s special sharp voice along with the night breeze. “If you don’t want to die, you’d better not touch it.”
His voice was as cold as the cold spring in winter. Anyone would be soaked by this coldness even during the hot summer. Bai Ye retracted his hands. ‘God damn it, is this a poisonous flower?’
‘Why would anyone plant poisonous flowers all over in their own yard?’
‘How strange.’
“What can I do for you?” Su Man asked in a cold voice. He stood under the moonlight with his tall and firm figure. His expression was fierce, but he looked as noble as a god from heaven. Even a man would be stunned by his appearance.
The beauty under the moon was gorgeous.
Bai Ye wondered whether his coldness and fierce temper were directed at him. He knew himself very well. It was obvious that they were getting closer after being together for so many days, but he didn’t expect that he would ruin it. It was really…
A surprise.
Bai Ye smiled gently. “I came to discuss something with you. Cheng Anya is pregnant.”
