Mother-in-law found father-in-law, it has nothing to do with me, she found him on her own.

And I didn’t know mother-in-law left to find father-in-law, I only found out just now.

It was Old Master Gong who picked her up during the day, I later forgot to tell you.

Darling, I really didn’t deliberately hide anything from you."

"You said it was uncle who picked her up?" Jian Yufei grasped the key point.

Ruan Tianling nodded: "Mm."

Jian Yufei hastily dialed Gong Jiahua’s number.

As if knowing she was going to call him, no one answered his phone.

Jian Yufei went forward and grabbed Ruan Tianling’s hand: "Let’s go to the Gong Family!"

Ruan Tianling accompanied her to the Gong Family.

Turns out, Gong Jiahua wasn’t home, he went out during the day and hasn’t come back.

The Gong Family’s servants said he instructed them that he wouldn’t come back for a while, and the servants don’t know where he went.

Walking out from the Gong Family, Ruan Tianling guessed: "Maybe he’s with mother-in-law."

Jian Yufei nodded: "Perhaps."

Ruan Tianling comforted her: "You should try to let it go, mother-in-law and father-in-law aren’t kids anymore. Leave these matters to them."

"How can you ask me to let it go? Dad’s body hasn’t recovered, mom’s stomach is so big, she’s about to give birth soon, how can I not worry about them?!"

Ruan Tianling no longer tried to dodge the issue this time.

"I promise you, I’ll take you to see them in half a month’s time."

Jian Yufei held his hand tight: "Can’t we go right now?"

Ruan Tianling spoke softly: "Mother-in-law doesn’t want to talk to you and told us not to disturb her, which means she has her own plans. If we go, we might disrupt her plans."

"What kind of plan could my mom have?"

"Don’t underestimate mother-in-law, she’s much more capable than you."

Jian Yufei glared at him, embarrassed and annoyed.

Ruan Tianling pulled her over and hugged her tightly: "You’ve been ignoring me these past few days, now that you’re free, shouldn’t you make it up to me?"

"I truly suspect, the reason you won’t tell me where they are is so that I’d accompany you." Jian Yufei said irritably.

Ruan Tianling smiled enchantingly: "How could that be. I just think, father-in-law asked mother-in-law to handle things, while you just need to handle me."

"But my mom and them..."

"I promise you, I won’t let anything happen to them." Ruan Tianling spoke gravely.

Jian Yufei finally showed a smile: "Alright, I suppose I’ve been defeated by you."

She compromised.

Compromised for him...

"Darling, I love you."

Ruan Tianling held her chin and deeply kissed her lips.

D City’s outskirts—

This is a beautiful town.

The houses in the town are small and exquisite, one connected to another.

A bit further out, the distance between houses is more sparse.

Xiao Zexin lived in a solitary house that is quite far from the others.

The scenery here is very nice, and the air is exceptionally good.

Having been here for a few days, his mood has settled quite a bit.

But deep inside, he constantly misses someone.

He left without saying goodbye, she must be really sad and upset.

But if he hadn’t left quietly, she definitely wouldn’t have allowed him to go.

Yet he can’t stay by her side; he fears that someday, he would not be able to resist hurting her.

...

Xiao Zexin lay in bed, unable to sleep.

His mind had been constantly tortured by hallucinations, while also suffering the pain of longing.

It’s like he had become two people, one was a Devil, and the other was himself.

The Devil was constantly fighting with himself every moment.
