Chapter 1414
The Apple of the Ruthless CEO's Eye: My Sweet Wife Is so Adorable
Ling Xiâs words successfully threatened Ye Nuan.
Ye Nuan glared at him angrily, feeling very angry. Did he find it satisfying to humiliate her with such unbearable words?
He had always thought of her as an indecent woman, but it was also right. He had always looked down on what she had done. For the sake of benefits, she was willing to pretend to be someone elseâs girlfriend. Even she despised herself for this kind of thing!
Since she was pretending to be his girlfriend, what right did he have to question her?
She really wanted to tell him that her matters had nothing to do with him. They were just working together. There was no need to explain everything to her.
However, she still retained her last bit of calmness and did not say these words out loud. She knew that doing so would anger him and would only make him do things that would be detrimental to her.
...
In the end, he lowered his stance and said in a low voice, ââHe is the son of my fatherâs second wife. He can be considered my brother.â
Ling Xi paused as he opened the door. He turned to look at the woman beside him and easily caught the main point of her words.
She was talking about the son of her fatherâs second wife, not the son of his father and his second wife. Therefore, there was no blood relationship at all!
What kind of sibling relationship was this!
Ling Xi was angry, but he didnât say anything. He didnât expect Ye Nuanâs family to be so complicated.
In other words, her father and her mother had divorced, and her father had reorganized his family. So, she was now living alone with her mother?@@novelbin@@
When he called her on New Yearâs Eve, her mother answered the phone and said that she had gone downstairs to set off firecrackers. At that time, he thought that she was doing something that men did. He thought that she was playing with his father. He did not expect her to be the man of the family.
Ye Nuan looked at Ling Xiâs expression and was worried that he would really get out of the car. However, he quickly closed the car door.
She heaved a sigh of relief. Then, Ling Xi started the car silently.
âWhy didnât you contact me for so long?â Ling Xi asked after a while.
Ye Nuan lowered her head. â My mother fell down the stairs on the first day of the Lunar New Year. She hurt her ankle and was hospitalized. â
Ling Xiâs eyes darkened. â Why didnât you tell me about this? â
This woman actually didnât tell him when she encountered something. Sometimes, she thought that she valued benefits and could use him to gain benefits in her career, but she didnât know how to rely on him at this time!
Ye Nuan didnât answer him, but she felt that there was no need to tell him.
He thought for a moment and said softly, â Itâs nothing serious. Iâve already been discharged. Iâve been taking care of my mother recently. Please donât hold it against me, Young Master Ling. â
No matter how unhappy Ling Xi was, he couldnât be calculative with her. She had a reason for this. If she did not contact him on purpose, he would never let her off!
The anger in his heart dissipated after hearing her explanation.
âWhat did that man want from you?â she asked.
âHe asked me to go home to visit my father. I donât want to go.â Ye Nuan felt that if she didnât make things clear to him, this man wouldnât stop, so she told him anyway.
Ling Xi didnât ask further. â Where is your mother hurt? Iâll buy some supplements to see her. â
Ye Nuan was shocked. â Thereâs no need, Young Master Ling. You donât have to go through so much trouble. â
âI donât think itâs troublesome.â
âMy mother doesnât like strangers.â
Ling Xi frowned. â Iâm your boyfriend! â
âItâs better not to let her know that youâre pretending to be my boyfriend.â Ye Nuanâs tone was very tactful.
Ling Xi was speechless.
This woman really wanted to anger him to death!
