Chapter 49 - 49: How it Ends is Up to Me



Chapter 49: Chapter 49: How it Ends is Up to Me

“Of course not! She has nothing to do with you!”

The more she refuted, the more Li Lingyang’s emotions surged, and a sliver of expectation emerged, “If that’s the case, why did you two pretend not to know each other at the amusement park?”

Ning Yichu calmed down, “Please, precisely because she is not your daughter, I was afraid that you would hurt her if you knew her background, so I hid it everywhere. As a mother, I won’t allow anyone to harm her.”

“There has to be a limit to lying!” Li Lingyang felt a heaviness in his heart and stared at her intensely, “If it’s really like you said, that the child is the result of a one-night stand, and you don’t even know who the father is, what made you decide to give birth to her?”

“Ha, this is all thanks to you, I was disillusioned with men, I just wanted to have my own child!”

Ning Yichu’s straightforward attitude was like a bucket of cold water pouring down, and Li Lingyang felt an uncontrollable rage bubbling inside, his gaze growing darker as he stared deeply at her.

...

Overwhelmed by his powerful presence, Ning Yichu’s heart was in turmoil, “If President Li came just to question me about these things, then now that you’ve finished asking, you can leave… Ah!”

Just as she made a gesture inviting him to leave, her wrist was suddenly grasped by the man.

Her world spun for an instant, and Ning Yichu cried out in alarm, only to find herself pressed into a corner by Li Lingyang.

She angrily swung her fist towards his chest, but Li Lingyang caught her fist with precision, his tall frame leaning forward, and with his other hand, he provocatively lifted her chin, his tone filled with danger.

“Even if Ningning isn’t my daughter, what’s your purpose in letting her get close to Doudou?”

Ning Yichu looked up in surprise, “You think I’m instructing Ningning to cling to Doudou with ulterior motives?”

“What else?” Normally, when couples divorce, the child’s status becomes particularly delicate. Any other ex-wife would probably want to take her child and stay far away, yet she does the opposite.

“Could I interpret this as you still not being over our past, trying to use the child to get close to me? Hmm?”

Ning Yichu felt like laughing out of anger.

Could this bastard be any more narcissistic?

She took a deep breath and said scornfully, “President Li, I think you’re misunderstanding. We’ve been divorced for so long, I don’t see what’s so appealing about you that I can’t get over you. In fact, the two children becoming friends was completely accidental! If you think it’s inappropriate, I won’t let Ningning see Doudou anymore…”

Li Lingyang let out a low sneer, his dark eyes narrowing slightly, “You and your daughter stir up Doudou’s life into a mess and then think you can just walk away unscathed? It’s not that simple.”

Ning Yichu wished she could punch him, “Wasn’t it you who said we had ill intentions? What more do you want?”

Li Lingyang raised an eyebrow, speaking indifferently, “What has happened has happened, and I’ll be the one to decide how it ends! After grandma’s birthday party, I’ll tell you what to do, but if I find out you’ve been deceiving me behind my back, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

Waiting until the birthday party, the paternity test results should also come out, and if it’s not his child, naturally, there’s no need to continue the relationship.

Ning Yichu clenched her fists, furious and frustrated at his filthy insinuations about her and Ningning. Her body trembled slightly, but before she could react, Ningning, half-asleep, heard someone in the living room, ran out, and saw Li Lingyang pressing Ning Yichu against the corner, her eyes widening in shock—

“…Ah! Scumbag Uncle? What are you doing here? Don’t bully my mommy?!”

Ning Yichu saw Ningning come out, her face flashing with panic, her heart beating even more furiously.

She struggled to push away the man pinning her down, but his strength was overwhelming, and her attempt was as futile as a mantis trying to shake a tree. Instead, her twisting and struggling seemed, in Li Lingyang’s eyes, to be a silent provocation.

Li Lingyang’s eyes darkened as Ningning ran over, struggling to pull at his trousers, “Bad Uncle, let go of my mommy!”

Ning Yichu feared that a single kick from Li Lingyang could knock her down…

But unexpectedly, Li Lingyang did not hurt Ningning. Instead, he took a step back and released Ning Yichu.

Ning Yichu instinctively hugged Ningning tight, then heard the man’s mocking cold laugh, “Now calling Ning Yichu mommy, huh?”

Ningning’s little face stiffened suddenly, oh no, she had forgotten to keep up her disguise in her panic. Her big eyes swiveled, and covering her head, she trembled, “Ah, my head is so dizzy, pretty auntie, how could I be at your house?”

Ning Yichu was torn between laughter and tears, speechlessly said, “Alright Ningning, no need to pretend anymore, President Li already knows our relationship.”

Ningning’s little frame tensed up, then she planted her hands on her hips and glared fiercely at Li Lingyang, “That’s right, Chu Chu the beauty is my mommy! With me here to protect her, don’t you even think about bullying her again!”

Li Lingyang’s stern gaze wandered over mother and daughter, heaven knows what Ning Yichu had been filling the child’s head with for Ningning to hold such animosity toward him.

It would be one thing if Ningning wasn’t his own child, but if she was…

Ning Yichu, you’re finished!

“This is a dress from Doudou for you to wear at the birthday party,” Li Lingyang handed over a beautifully wrapped gift box tied with an adorable bow, clearly something a young girl would like.

But even if Ningning liked it, she didn’t accept it right away, instead looking towards Ning Yichu.

Thinking about how the two little girls would probably part ways after the birthday party, Ning Yichu silently agreed to let Ningning take it.

Ningning held the delicate starry dress, cherishing it in her arms.

Li Lingyang watched her cute cheeks puff and deflate, involuntarily wanting to reach out and rub her little head.

Sensing his intention, Ningning quickly turned her head to avoid him, eyeing him with wariness, as if he was up to no good.

Li Lingyang’s hand paused mid-air, not feeling the slightest bit awkward, he casually withdrew it and pondered to Ning Yichu, “When grandmother’s birthday comes, I’ll send someone to pick up Ningning ahead of time. I hope you’ll have her dressed up.”

It was too late to go back on her word now, Ning Yichu replied, “Okay.”

After Li Lingyang left, Ning Yichu almost reflexively slammed the door shut and locked it, then leaned against the door, breathing heavily. Damn it, how did Li Lingyang find out about her and Ningning’s relationship?

Was it at the hospital?

Damn it!

Li Lingyang’s intuition was so sharp; she had shown just a tiny slip, and he’d followed the trail and caught on. Thankfully, she had already sent Chen Bao away, otherwise things would be even worse!

However, looking at it from another angle, Ningning’s exposure could serve to distract Li Lingyang’s attention. That way he wouldn’t have much energy to chase after Chen Bao, and might even stop suspecting that Chen Bao was her illegitimate child, which wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

All night long, Ning Yichu was a mess of emotions and did not sleep well.

After returning to her room, Ningning couldn’t sleep either and quickly called up Chen Bao.

She told him about Li Lingyang coming to their door that day.

Chen Bao wasn’t surprised, “I knew that you were living with mommy, it couldn’t be hidden for long, just didn’t expect it to come out so soon.”

“Brother, do you think Trash Dad will investigate my relationship with him now that he knows I’m mommy’s daughter?” Ningning asked seriously.

Even though mommy had repeatedly denied any relationship with him, Trash Dad didn’t seem like the type to take your word for it.

Chen Bao pursed his lips, speaking seriously, “You’re right, you need to be more careful these days. If he approaches you, wants to get a sample of your hair, you mustn’t give it to him.”
