Chapter 196 - 196: Having His Child
After Shen Bai and her husband left, Bei Shuo walked to Shen Su’s side and poked her.
Shen Su rolled her eyes at her.
Bei Shuo sat down beside her and asked curiously, “Why is it so complicated? I thought you were just casually dating. I was worried that you would be hurt by love!”
Shen Su let out a long sigh. “Do you think it’s so easy to be in a rich family? The people around you are very scheming. If you’re not as scheming as them, you’ll fall into a pit dug by someone for you at any time. Think about it, even an innocent person like you will remind me of Mu En’s problem. How can I not be careful?”
“But you clearly said—”
“Yes, I admit that I was touched by him for a period of time.” Shen Su interrupted Bei Shuo.
Her gaze was unfocused as she sighed softly again. “Our family backgrounds match. He’s considered outstanding. In all aspects, he’s the best candidate. If he treats me wholeheartedly from now on, I won’t even ask him to treat me as well as Brother-in-law treats Sister. As long as he’s loyal to our marriage, I can marry him and live with him for the rest of my life. But he can’t betray me and to have a foot in both camps. That’s my bottom line.”
“Shen Su, do you like him? Do you love him?” Bei Shuo frowned slightly and asked the most important question.
Shen Su’s gaze landed on Bei Shuo’s face. “Then do you love Mu Ci? Does Mu Ci love you?”
“Yes!” Bei Shuo replied firmly.
“What do you mean by love? Do you understand it?” Shen Su looked at Bei Shuo with disdain.
Bei Shuo met her gaze and said frankly, “Of course I understand. Just like Brother Mu Ci and I, Sister Shen Bai and Brother-in-law, we’ll be happy when we’re together. We’ll miss each other when we’re not together. Well think about each other all the time. As long as he’s good, I’ll be good!”
Bei Shuo’s self-righteousness finally suppressed Shen Su’s arrogance. However, she was very indignant. “My sister already has Brother-in-law’s children. When are you going to give birth to Mu Ci’s child?”
She had to admit that she was trying to find something to say. She was twisting her words because she didn’t want Bei Shuo to be smug.
However, Bei Shuo was stunned. She thought about it seriously before saying, “I can discuss this with Brother Stone. If we have a baby, the house will be lively. I like children!”
Shen Su covered her forehead with her hand and wailed, “Get lost, Bei Shuo! Get lost! I’m in deep trouble here, but you’re showing off your love! We’re no longer friends!”
Bei Shuo bent over in laughter.
When Bei Shuo reached home and realized that Mu Ci and Luo Bing were at home, she couldn’t help but be happy. “Second Senior Brother, why are you here? I haven’t seen you for many days!”
Bei Shuo was overjoyed.
A rare smile appeared on Luo Bing’s face. “I’ve been on a business trip recently.
I came back today to see you.”
Bei Shuo glanced at Mu Ci, who was sitting on a soft chair, with disdain. “You’re doing me a favor again. You’re clearly here to see Brother Stone. If I hadn’t come back, would you have planned to leave?”
Luo Bing smiled without saying anything. He reached out and touched her head.
She grabbed Luo Bing’s arm. “If you really came to see me, why don’t you stay for dinner? I’ll make your favorite dishes!”
Mu Ci coughed. “It’s been a long time since you personally cooked for me!”
Luo Bing raised his eyebrows. “Oh? Then I’ll stay and wait for Little Junior Sister to make delicious food for me!”
Bei Shuo nodded happily. She also took into account Mu Ci’s jealousy. “I’m cooking for Brother Stone too. Wait for me. I’ll go prepare it now!”
She stuffed her bag into Mu Ci’s lap and turned to run. As she ran, she shouted, “Xiaoling, Xiaobai, come and help!”
Mu Ci and Luo Bing shook their heads and smiled at the same time.
“I’m relieved to see her like this,” said Luo Bing softly.
Mu Ci’s smile faded. It had been a long time since Bei Shuo had been so happy. With his mother around, she had always restrained herself.
Mu Ci slowly felt guilty.
Bei Shuo’s joy ended the moment she saw Duan Si.
As Bei Shuo greeted Duan Si, she blamed herself for being too forgetful. She was so happy to see her senior brother that she forgot that Madam Mu was at home. Great, she was going to be taught a lesson again.
Unexpectedly, Duan Si did not flare up when she saw her. She only asked calmly, “I heard that the Shen Family’s Eldest Young Master is here?”
Bei Shuo nodded. “Senior Brother said that he would stay for dinner..”
