After dinner, Mu Chen called Cheng Che to the study.
Upon hearing this, Song Ning glared at Mu Chen and complained, “Why do you have so much work? You’re either in the company or cooped up in the study every day! Can’t you spend time with me and the baby?”
Mu Chen and Cheng Che stopped talking and turned to look at Song Ning.
Song Ning stomped her foot and turned to hug Jiang Jin’s arm as she said sulkily, “Grandma, why don’t you speak to Mu Chen? He’s so busy that he hardly sleeps in the bedroom. If he’s not at the company, he’s sleeping in his study. I don’t understand him at all!”
Mu Chen’s expression was very dark at this moment while Cheng Che looked uneasy.
Jiang Jin smiled and patted Song Ning’s hand. “I’m the one who forbade him from sleeping in the bedroom. To think you’re a doctor, but you don’t understand this at all…”
Song Ning was confused.
Jiang Jin leaned closer and whispered in Song Ning’s ears.
Song Ning blushed and stomped her foot coquettishly. “Grandma!”
Jiang Jin smiled kindly and patted Song Ning’s hand again. “Be obedient! You promised to give birth to four children for our family! You can’t go back on your word so you must take good care of your body. I have to take care of you on behalf of your late mother and late mother-in-law as well…”
Song Ning had no comeback for these words.
Jiang Jin looked at Mu Chen sternly and said, “Hurry up and return to your study. Why are you standing there? Let me tell you; it isn’t time yet so you better not think about sleeping in the bedroom. If you let me find out otherwise, I’ll break your legs.”
Mu Chen’s expression eased immediately. He bowed and said, “I understand, Grandma. By the way, I’m in the midst of acquiring a Japanese company recently so I’ll be sending Cheng Che on a business trip. He’s going to be very busy.”
Jiang Jin nodded. “You’re the pillar of our Mu family. Now that you have a son, don’t forget that about your duty to make the Mu family bigger and stronger. Cheng Che, this applies to you as well.”
The two of them quickly nodded and said in unison, “Yes, Grandma!”
Jiang Jin waved her hand, dismissing the duo.
Song Ning’s expression was one of reluctance as she watched Mu Chen leave.
At this time, Jiang Jin said in an even tone, “Ningning, you should also spend your time wisely. Yu and I will look after the child. Mu Chen is relatively busy. You need to focus on recuperating and staying happy. You can go out to relax. However, I worry about you being alone so you should ask Liang Zhou to accompany you. I’ve already spoken to her, and she’s very willing to accompany you. Jiahui isn’t here, and you don’t have many friends. I’m sure you’ve been feeling lonely as well. I feel at ease if Liang Zhou’s with you…”
While Jiang Jin spoke, Song Ning listened absent-mindedly. The main points she had gotten from Jiang Jin’s speech were that Jiang Jin wanted Liang Zhou to accompany her if she went out and that Mu Chen was prohibited from sleeping with her.
Song Ning burned with hatred when she thought about these things. ‘This damn old woman, where did she come up with all these rules?’
However, since Jiang Jin still allowed her to go out, Song Ning could still endure it. She could use this chance to see Mu Qing. As for that silly woman, Liang Zhou, she did not think much of that woman at all.
…
After entering the study, Cheng Che patted his chest. He looked at Mu Chen sympathetically and said, “That was close! Brother, that woman’s goal is to sleep with you!”
Mu Chen did not say anything. In fact, the day after they returned from the hospital, not too long after Song Ning had given birth, she had tried to make a move on him. Thinking about how he had unknowingly kissed her at that time, he was filled with disgust. The kiss was also the beginning of his suspicion. After all, that woman in front of him did not behave like Song Ning and did not feel like Song Ning to him at all.
Mu Chen’s heart felt incomparably heavy as he thought to himself, ‘Song Ning, where are you?’
