Chapter 2561: Her Heart Was Tight
In the middle of the night.
The guest room door was opened from the outside with a key.
A man with a cold expression walked in.
Ning Yuan had already fallen asleep. She was wearing a light blue nightdress and her slender body was turned sideways. Her black hair was spread over the pillow and her face was clean and beautiful.
Ye Yu sat by the bed and thought of that little bean sprout during the ultrasound scan. He glanced at her flat stomach.
His long fingers caressed her abdomen, imagining the scene of the little bean sprout slowly growing up.
He leaned down and used his other hand to push the woman’s long hair away from her cheek. His thin lips placed a kiss on her forehead.
Ning Yuan was more sleepy after getting pregnant. In her daze, she felt a mosquito flying over and disturbing her sleep. She raised her hand and slapped the mosquito’s face.
Ye Yu, who had been slapped, was speechless.
The next day, Ye Yu came to attend an academic conference overseas.
Assistant Su saw the faint red finger mark on his left cheek and could not help asking, “Your Highness, what happened to your face?”
Ye Yu looked at the document expressionlessly. “I shot a mosquito.”
“Your Highness, you’re using too much strength. I’ll go get an ice pack. If not, those people will think that you were hit by a woman when we get off the plane!”
Yu Guan glanced at Ye Yu, furrowing her eyebrows in deep thought.
It was obvious that he did not hit the mosquito himself.
Besides, where did the mosquitoes come from?
….
Without Ye Yu in the villa, Ning Yuan felt much more relaxed.
Auntie Wang basically did not interfere with her matters. When she came back from work every day, the food was already prepared.
Perhaps Ye Yu had instructed that they were all nutritious food and tonics.
After dinner, Ning Yuan went for a walk in the garden.
When she returned to her room, her phone rang.
Seeing that it was Ye Yu, Ning Yuan’s heart skipped a beat.
Taking a deep breath, she answered the call.
The man on the other end of the call did not speak and she could vaguely hear his breathing.
“You drank?”
Hearing her words, the man’s deep voice trailed over. “You know me that well?”
“I can tell from his breathing that he’s not breathing normally.”
He chuckled softly.
That laughter seemed to come from the depths of her chest with a magnetic resonance. Ning Yuan’s beautiful face was slightly red. “What are you laughing at?”
“So you like me to this extent.”
Ning Yuan’s face and ears heated up from his words. She said angrily, “Don’t flatter yourself. I can tell even if it’s someone else!”
“Is he referring to your ex-boyfriend?”
Ning Yuan was stunned. Why was he mentioning her ex-boyfriend again?
“Why do I feel like you’re being weird? Aren’t you my ex-boyfriend?”
The man on the other end of the line laughed coldly. “Are you itching for a beating?”
Ning Yuan said, “I’m scared. If you’ve drunk, I’ll get Assistant Su to prepare a bowl of hangover soup for you later. Good night.”
Without waiting for him to say anything, she hung up.
Soon, she received a message from him. “Good night.”
Ning Yuan lay on the bed, her red lips curling up unconsciously.
….
On the third day of Ye Yu’s business trip, Ning Yuan received a call from the cemetery of Wutong Town.
After the call, Ning Yuan’s face paled.
After informing Auntie Wang, she borrowed Gu Fei’s car and headed to Wutong Town.
When she arrived at the cemetery and saw her father’s red tombstone, her heart tightened.
“Miss Ning, I’m really sorry. When we were patrolling in the morning, we found that someone had splashed red paint on your father’s tombstone.” The cemetery keeper looked at Ning Yuan, whose eyes were red and whose hands were clenched into fists as if she was suppressing her emotions. “This place happens to be a blind spot for surveillance cameras, so we didn’t find out who did it.”
“This person is too wicked!”
The dark red paint spread from the tombstone and looked alarming.
Ning Yuan gritted her teeth and stiffened her body, forcing back the tears that were about to fall from her eyes.
“Miss Ning, we will arrange for someone to clean it up immediately…”
“Bring me a bucket of water. I’ll clean it up myself.” Ning Yuan took a deep breath and tried to make her voice calm and steady. “Also, I want to see the surveillance cameras from last night until this morning. This place is surrounded. Even if this area is a blind spot, that person must have come in from the front door.”
“Miss Ning, to be honest, the wall at the back door is broken. Recently, the workers are repairing it. That person must have come in from the back door. The surveillance cameras there can only be installed after the wall is repaired.”
Ning Yuan closed her eyes, her emotions unreadable. She nodded. “Okay, I understand.”
The administrator got someone to bring water over. Ning Yuan knelt on the ground and wiped the paint away bit by bit.
When she was done, it was already afternoon.
Ning Yuan left the cemetery and went to the supermarket to buy fruits and nutritional supplements.
When she came out of the supermarket, she met her middle school classmates, Zhou Ting and Qin Ming.
“Ning Yuan, you’re back?” Zhou Ting smiled when she saw Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan had sat with Zhou Ting before and their relationship was not good. “Yes, I came back to see Grandma.”
“Qin Ming and I are getting married tomorrow and you gave us a red packet in advance. We thought you wouldn’t come back.” Zhou Ting went forward and grabbed Ning Yuan’s arm. “You gave us such a big red packet. You must come over for dinner tomorrow!”
“Yes, Ning Yuan, you’re not at the class reunion every year. You must come tomorrow. Many middle school classmates want to see you!” Qin Ming said.
Qin Ming’s house was not far from his grandmother’s house. When Ning Yuan was not around, Qin Ming would occasionally help his grandmother.
“Alright, I’ll go over tomorrow.”
“Great, then we’ll wait for you to come!”
….
The next day.
Ning Yuan went to the best hotel in Wutong Town to attend Qin Ming and Zhou Ting’s wedding.
Qin Ming arranged for his middle school classmates to sit at the same table.
Seeing Ning Yuan, whom they had not seen for a long time, everyone was very enthusiastic.
“Ning Yuan, why are you here alone? Where’s Lu Ran?” One of the classmates asked.
Ning Yuan was about to speak when a sharp voice trailed over. “Ning Yuan has long found a rich man and broke up with Lu Ran. Don’t you know?”
“Xu Min.” Qin Ming walked over and looked at Xu Min, who was glaring at Ning Yuan. “We’re all classmates. Why are you saying this?”
Xu Min threw her chopsticks on the table. “Qin Ming, didn’t you say that Ning Yuan wouldn’t be coming today? You probably don’t know, but Lu Ran has been detained by that rich man and hasn’t come out yet!”
“She relied on that face to let her financier kill anyone she couldn’t stand. You have to be careful! She didn’t even let Lu Ran off, let alone us commoners!”
Ning Yuan frowned and was about to say something when her phone rang.
Seeing that it was Ye Yu, she answered the call. “I have something on now. I’ll call you later.”
“What is it?”
Before Ning Yuan could say anything, she heard Xu Min say, “In my opinion, that person might be a little richer than Lu Ran, but he’s definitely not as handsome as Lu Ran. He must be a big-bellied old man, right?”
