Chapter 1122 Did You Get Bullied?
Xu Youning and Mumu were obviously discussing Shen Yuechuan’s condition.
However, the little boy suddenly changed the subject and began to comfort Xu Youning.
She was stunned as a great sense of warmth spread in her heart.
“Compared with Kang Ruicheng, Mumu should be the one who wants me to recover more, right?
“At least, the little boy cares about how I feel all the time. He would never suddenly ask me to undergo an operation with a 90% failure rate as Kang Ruicheng did.”
Xu Youning touched Mumu’s head and said with a smile, “Yeah!”
In fact, what Mumu said made sense.
Xu Youning had once been taken to the top of the mountain by Mu Sijue. It was during that time that she had known about Shen Yuechuan’s illness and knew that Shen Yuechuan’s condition was more serious than the rumors had it.
At that time, not only Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an but also Xiao Yunyun were ready to lose Shen Yuechuan.
However, just yesterday, Shen Yuechuan’s operation was successful.
His case showed how powerful the private hospital under Lu Enterprises was.
Xu Youning had seen many doctors, but she had never had any hope. She had gradually given up.
It seemed that she had given up too early.
She had yet to go to the best hospital or doctor.
It would not be too late to give up on herself completely after she saw a doctor at a private hospital.
Thinking of that, Xu Youning’s withered heart seemed to have touched sweet dew. It regained its vigor and burst into vitality, and the haze at the bottom of her eyes gradually faded away, returning to its former brightness.
Although Mumu was still young, he could already sense the changes in Xu Youning’s mood.
He intimately snuggled into her arms and reminded her like a worried adult, “Auntie Youning, you must have confidence in yourself!”
Xu Youning nodded and said firmly, “No problem. I’ll listen to you!”
“Well, there’s one more thing-” The little boy raised his head in a wicked way and looked at Xu Youning seriously. “You had a fight with Daddy and haven’t reconciled yet! How are you going to solve this matter?”
A few days ago, Kang Ruicheng rushed back and told Xu Youning that he wanted her to have an operation, which was told by Fang Heng to him.
Fang Heng also said that the success rate was extremely low and that there was a 90% chance that Xu Youning would die on the operating table.
Even so, Kang Ruicheng still asked her to take a risk and ordered her to undergo surgery.
Xu Youning was pregnant. Once she took the operation, Kang Ruicheng would find out the secret of her baby, and she would lose it.
Of course, she would not take the operation. She lost her temper on the spot and had not said a word to Kang Ruicheng until now.
Mumu was unprecedentedly quiet and well-behaved for the first time. He had never helped ease the tension between Kang Ruicheng and Xu Youning.
He felt that the current state between the two adults was not bad.
However, the little boy also knew that the conflict between them could not be delayed like this. Xu Youning had to solve it.
Xu Youning thought for a long time but still had no idea. She shook her head and said, “I haven’t figured out how to solve it…”
“Well, it doesn’t matter!” Mu Mengmeng’s eyes flickered as he said, “We still have a lot of time. It doesn’t matter if you are not willing to forgive Daddy for the time being!”
Xu Youning didn’t say anything.
It was not because Mumu was trapping his dad.
It was because Mumu was wrong this time.
She did not have much time left.
However, she thought that there was no need for the little boy to feel some negative emotions.
Xu Youning smiled and rubbed Mumu’s head. She replied with a “hmm” and gave him a positive answer to calm him down.
Mumu didn’t notice her hesitation, and he was still very excited. He pulled her hand and said eagerly, “Auntie Youning, let’s celebrate for Sister Yunyun and Uncle Yuechuan!”
“Okay!” Xu Youning went with the topic and asked, “But how should we celebrate?”
“By playing a game!” Mumu looked rational. “If we defeat our opponents in the game, we can celebrate for Sister Yunyun and Uncle Yuechuan!”
Xu Youning didn’t say anything.
She didn’t quite understand Mumu’s logic.
“However, he’s young, so everything he says is right!”
Xu Youning reached out and wanted to give Mumu a high-five. “Good idea. It’s settled then!”
“Okay.”
Mumu gave Xu Youning a high-five, turned on the laptop, and began to fight with Xu Youning in games.
This kind of celebration was quite special, but they both liked it, so there was nothing wrong with it.
They had been playing games for the whole afternoon and only went offline when it was dark.
The maid just happened to come up to knock on the door and said, “Mr. Kang is back, but he seems to be in a bad mood…”
Xu Youning didn’t know when it started, but whether it was the maids or Kang Ruicheng’s subordinates, whenever they mentioned Kang Ruicheng to her, they would also speak of his mood.
They probably thought that she could help make Kang Ruicheng feel better.
Unfortunately, they were wrong.
She was usually the one who made Kang Ruicheng feel worse.
Xu Youning nodded casually and asked, “I see. Is dinner ready?”
“It’s ready,” the maid said respectfully. “I came up to ask you and Mumu to go downstairs for dinner.”
Xu Youning turned to Mumu and asked, “It’s time to eat. Are you hungry now? If not, let’s go downstairs later.”
“I’m hungry. Let’s go down now.” Mumu blinked his charming eyes and said mischievously, “Auntie Youning, let’s go down and see how terrible Daddy is feeling.”
Xu Youning had always known that Mumu tended to trap his dad, but she didn’t know when he started to have such a weird hobby. She reached out her hand and said helplessly, “Let’s go.”
“Okay!” Mumu skipped over, took Xu Youning’s hand, and went downstairs with her.
Sure enough, Kang Ruicheng had come back. He was sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face, and his whole body was shrouded in a murderous aura, with a kind of ruthlessness to keep people miles away.
Dongzi and his men stood carefully aside, not daring to approach Kang Ruicheng or say a word.
Mumu looked at his dad for a moment. He trembled, pulled Xu Youning to the dining room, and said, “Auntie Youning, Daddy is so scary now. Let’s ignore him and eat first!”
Xu Youning thought about it and found that Mumu’s decision was very wise.
She decided to listen to the little boy and nodded. As if she didn’t see Kang Ruicheng, she directly walked past him to the dining room.
From the corner of his eyes, Kang Ruicheng could see Xu Youning’s back. She was so determined and reluctant as if he were just a bubble.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and ordered Dongzi and his men, “Leave now and stand by.”
“Yes, Brother Cheng!”
Dongzi and his men responded in unison before they left the living room as if they had been spared.
Kang Ruicheng got up and walked behind Mumu and Xu Youning to the dining room.
Dinner today was as sumptuous as ever.
The difference was that there were several dishes that Mumu liked.
“Wow!” The little boy couldn’t help cheering. He nimbly climbed up the chair and praised, “This is awesome!”
“Mumu, bon appetit,” the maid said with a smile. “We specially prepared some dishes that you like!”
“Okay!” Mumu’s appetite was aroused, and he couldn’t help swallowing. “Thank you, ma’am!”
At that moment, Kang Ruicheng happened to come over and sat opposite Mumu and Xu Youning.
When Mumu saw his dad, his smile immediately faded like a flame that met a firefighter, and he was no longer in high spirits. He called Kang Ruicheng as if he was finishing a task. “Daddy…”
“Mm,” Kang Ruicheng said in a voice neither cold nor warm, which sounded more like an order. “Let’s eat.”
Mumu breathed a sigh of relief and pointed to the braised pork ribs on the table. “Auntie Youning, I want to eat that!”
Xu Youning picked up a piece of pork rib for the little guy and said in a soft voice, “There you go.” After that, she ate without looking at Kang Ruicheng.
She didn’t want to talk to Kang Ruicheng in the first place, and now she had to ignore him.
Only by turning a blind eye to him could she get the best effect of her act and get to deceive Kang Ruicheng for real.
What Xu Youning didn’t expect was that in Kang Ruicheng’s eyes, what she thought was still proper was already too excessive.
By that time, his patience had obviously reached its limit.
Bang! Kang Ruicheng slapped his cutlery hard and shouted at Xu Youning furiously, “A Ning, enough is enough!”
Xu Youning picked up a piece of braised pork ribs for herself, and then looked at Kang Ruicheng unhurriedly. “What do you mean by that? What’s wrong?”
“You know what I mean.” Kang Ruicheng’s facial features tightened, and the outline of his face burst out a kind of sharp killing intent. “A Ning, have you finished messing with me?”
His voice was full of a sense of intimidation. It was as if he would rush over at any time to grab Xu Youning’s throat and put an end to her life.
Xu Youning looked calm and said, “You’ve been overthinking. I’m not messing with you.”
As a matter of fact, Kang Ruicheng started this quarrel, but now he was questioning her instead. It was quite unreasonable of him.
Because of her calmness, Xu Youning sounded indifferent.
What Kang Ruicheng hated most was that Xu Youning didn’t care about him at all.
He absolutely would not tolerate it.
“A Ning!” Kang Ruicheng gritted his teeth and warned word by word, “Don’t you talk to me like this!”
“I…”
Xu Youning had only said a word when Mumu suddenly interrupted her.
Unexpectedly, he asked, “Daddy, did you get bullied?”
Such a childish question was usually asked by adults to children.
However, when it came to Mumu and Kang Ruicheng, the situation was exactly the opposite. A five-year-old child was asking an adult in his thirties whether he got bullied.
