Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Name a Price, Compensation for Last Night

Slap, Su Huimiao’s mahjong tile fell onto the table, and her face suddenly changed. She walked to the balcony and comforted Chengcheng, “What’s wrong, baby? Don’t cry, Grandma’s heart is breaking. Take your time, what exactly happened? How could Chengcheng have no daddy and mommy?”

She feared that something had happened to her son…

“Wuwu, Daddy didn’t come back all of last night, and this morning he said he and Mommy are going to separate! Grandma, Chengcheng doesn’t want Daddy and Mommy to split up, Chengcheng wants to stay with Daddy and Mommy…”

Su Huimiao immediately became angry. What was this situation?

“Chengcheng, be good. Is your mommy beside you? Give your mommy the phone, Grandma wants to talk to her…”

“Yingying, Mommy isn’t here, I’m hiding in the bathroom secretly calling you. Grandma, what should I do?”

“Oh my poor child, rest assured Chengcheng, Grandma will absolutely not let you become a child without a mommy! It must be some misunderstanding, don’t panic, Grandma will come to find you right away…” Su Huimiao consoled Chengcheng for a while before she finally managed to stop the little guy from crying.

Her heart was ablaze with urgency, she called Shen Jiangqing, but no one answered.

Then she called Li Lingyang, and still, no one answered!

What were they doing, living their own lives without caring for the child?

Chengcheng’s crying had made her heart soften, and she wished she could grow wings and fly over…

No longer in the mood for playing cards, Su Huimiao slammed down the mahjong tiles and called the driver, asking to be taken to Seaside Resort.

The driver silently glanced at her through the rearview mirror, at her heavy dark circles, “Ma’am, you stayed up all night, and the Master just called asking when you’d return. Are you really going to the resort this time?”

“If I don’t go now, I’m afraid my grandchild will be aggrieved. Hurry up and drive; I’ll deal with the Master later!”

…

Fortunately, there was enough tissue in the washroom, Ning Yichu managed to make do by padding with tissues before quickly stuffing all the dirty sheets from the laundry basket into the washing machine for a clean while the children were still not up.

Actually, this thing looked a bit disgusting, but it was better than letting the children see it.

These were all about four-year-old children, still half-understanding, what if they happened to see it? How much would it hurt their young minds?

When Li Lingyang returned, he saw that the bed sheets had been replaced with brand new ones, and the dirty sheets he nonchalantly threw into the bin had also been stuffed into the washer.

His expression was inscrutable. He wanted to ask something but still held back.

“Here’s what you asked for.” He handed a plastic bag to Ning Yichu.

Ning Yichu was extremely embarrassed, avoiding eye contact.

Li Lingyang observed Ning Yichu. It was nearly midnight already when the children brought him back last night…

Based on the message she previously sent him, asking her to pick up the children, indeed there were a few hours that were completely unaccounted for.

Was she having a secret rendezvous with Mo Baiyou?

Ning Yichu didn’t notice Li Lingyang’s strange look, grabbed the package, and went into the washroom, facing a large pack of sanitary pads that was indeed laughable and cryable—it was enough for her for half a year!

She quickly found a familiar brand to switch to, and the absence of that insecure feeling made her feel reborn!

“I also brought you some ointment, for external use.” After coming out of the washroom, Li Lingyang handed her a small black box.

Upon seeing the instructions clearly, Ning Yichu’s face turned bright red—it was for treating excessive friction. Well, that saved a trip to the hospital, but it was really freaking embarrassing!

“Thanks, how much was everything? I’ll transfer it to you.”

“No need, after all, you ended up like this because of me, even if I’m a jerk, I wouldn’t just zip up and run away. And as for…techniques, it depends on the person. With some sharp-tongued and unlovable women, sometimes brute force is the only way to shut her up.” Li Lingyang indifferently finished speaking, then pulled out a blank check to give to her.

Hui Yue’s originally flushed cheeks suddenly turned pale, and she stared at the check in front of her with quiet, cold laughter.

“What’s this supposed to mean?”

“Name your price for last night’s compensation.”

All Hui Yue wanted to do was to laugh bitterly. She, at least, had considered him a one-night stand, but he treated you like you were for sale!

Did she need money? Did he really have to humiliate her this way?

She chuckled lightly, arms crossed over her chest, “I’ll take your entire Li Group. Can you give it to me?”

Li Lingyang doubted he had heard correctly and looked at her in astonishment, crashing into her seductively mocking eyes. His heart sank, “Don’t ask for the moon. Even if I gave you the Li Group, would you dare to take it?”

“If you can’t afford it, just say it. Why flash a blank check acting all rich and powerful? You make it seem like I could write any amount I wanted. You have the nerve to come here talking about compensation without any sincerity. If I cared about your so-called compensation, I could have taken half your fortune when we divorced!”

Li Lingyang’s handsome face darkened, finding nothing to say to this woman. He didn’t wait for the children to wake up and left with long strides.

He had meant well, so why did she have to twist his words into something so unpleasant?

Probably because women are illogical when they’re on their period!

Thinking about some inappropriate thoughts he’d had earlier that morning, Li Lingyang furrowed his brows in annoyance.

Hui Yue stayed alone for a while before going to wake the children.

But she found that only the two baby girls were in bed; Chen Bao was nowhere to be seen.

Ningning rubbed her large eyes as she climbed out of bed, still sleepy and mumbling an explanation that Chen Bao had stealthily followed “trash daddy” out.

Hui Yue looked on in confusion.

It took her a while to realize that the children had actually woken up earlier and had even eavesdropped around the corner for a while. Now they were taking a nap again!

Thankfully, the room’s soundproofing was good, and she had been careful not to make any sound last night…

Otherwise, it really would have been embarrassing to the Pacific Ocean.

Taking a deep breath, she woke up the two half-asleep babies.

Doudou might have rolled over in sleep because Chen Bao was gone next to her, leaving lines imprinted on her little face, and her little tuft of hair had come loose, turning into a clump of adorable frizz stubbornly sticking to her forehead, looking especially cute and silly.

Hui Yue couldn’t resist rubbing her hand over it twice. How could such a cute baby not be hers?

When rubbed, Doudou still looked up at Hui Yue with innocent loveable eyes, her bright, watery eyes fluttering, a million times better than her trashy dad.

It was odd, although she wasn’t very talkative, she really didn’t like being touched by others.

Even many elders from the Li Family, who wanted to pat her head every time they met her, were not allowed to touch.

But when Aunt Ning rubbed her head like that, she felt so close…

Ningning was almost jealous.

Hui Yue then withdrew her hand and picked up the two little ones to wash up.

Doudou was staying over for the night on a whim, but luckily the resort had disposable toiletries.

She squeezed the toothpaste onto the brush and the little girl immediately opened her mouth wide, cooperating with Hui Yue as she brushed her teeth. Perhaps she was in a good mood. The little girl swayed her head along with Hui Yue’s brushing movements, humming a tuneless little song…
