My Little Sweet Wife Chapter 308 - Xian Guiying's Secret Was Finally Revealed I

Chapter 308 - Xian Guiying’s Secret Was Finally Revealed I

The Old Man thought for a moment, then narrowed his eyes as if recalling something, "I haven't been to the United States in all these years. According to Jian, there's a specialist there to accompany her, and Jian hasn't been there either. But I've never heard of any bad news, so she's probably still alive."

How light a favor.

Even if that woman had almost destroyed Xian Jian's family, she had, after all, given birth to a son for the Xian Family. Although she was at fault, her punishment was already sufficient. Twenty years of separation from her son and twenty years of insanity.

Jiang Ruolan could finally understand Xian Jian's cold personality. He was a man without a heart.

At this moment, Cui Liuxian came down the stairs with a pot of withering flowers, as if she was looking for a way to save it. When she saw Jiang Ruolan talking to the Old Man while playing chess, her eyes flashed, and she walked towards them with the flower pot.

Cui Liuxian sweetly called out to the Old Man, "Grandfather, it's so late, you should go rest."

"I'm not sleepy yet. Liuxian, what happened to the flower in your hand?"

"I forgot to water it for a month. It's dried up." Cui Liuxian then glanced at the teapot beside Jiang Ruolan. Seeing Jiang Ruolan trying to pour tea into the Old Man's empty cup, Cui Liuxian suddenly smiled, put down the flower pot, and took the teapot from her. "Sister Lan, you're pregnant."

As she spoke, Cui Liuxian smiled merrily and poured tea for the Old Man.

Old Man Xian didn't think too much of it and only felt a sense of gratification when he heard Cui Liuxian call Jiang Ruolan' Sister Lan'.

Jiang Ruolan, on the other hand, knew that Cui Liuxian did this because she was afraid that she (Jiang Ruolan) would steal the Old Man's heart.

She sighed.

Forget it, there was no need to argue in front of the Old Man. She wasn't an immature woman, just like Cui Liuxian. But who was Cui Liuxian?

Of course she wouldn't let this matter go just like that. After pouring tea for the Old Man, she poured another cup and placed it in front of Jiang Ruolan. She said with a smile, "Sister Lan, you have a drink too."

Jiang Ruolan's gaze froze as she looked at Cui Liuxian indifferently. Cui Liuxian had just pushed the cup to her just like that. If she didn't accept it, she would be a petty person. But so what if she didn't want to drink it. What could Cui Liuxian do to her?

Old Man Xian noticed something was wrong and immediately said, "Liuxian, Ruolan can't drink tea right now. At most, she can only drink scented tea."

Cui Liuxian hadn't expected the Old Man to speak. She tightened her grip on the teapot, but there was still a smile in her eyes. She hummed innocently and was about to put it down.

Jiang Ruolan pushed the teacup with a calm smile on her face. "It's going to be the Spring Festival soon. You should be 24 years old by now, and you're no longer a child. How come you don't even know that pregnant women can't drink strong tea?"

Jiang Ruolan gradually restrained her smile as she said, "I have a few books about pregnancy. I'll give you two at the same time and since you're about to get married, sooner or later, you'll need them as well. You need to know the taboos you should avoid, especially when it comes to tea. Who knows you will lose your child accidentally? After all, if you lose your own child, you'll know how painful it will be."

Jiang Ruolan was warning Cui Liuxian not to have a bad idea. The Old Man looked at the teacup Jiang Ruolan had pushed, then looked at Cui Liuxian's patient expression. He couldn't help but slightly furrowed his brows, "Liuxian, you should go to sleep. If you think you can save the flower, then save it."

Cui Liuxian bit her lips when she was how the Old Man sent her off so straightforwardly. She formed a fist with her hand hidden in her sleeve, turned around without a sound while hugging on the flower pot, then ran upstairs.

Before heading up to the second floor, she paused and whispered, "I will definitely save it."

With that, Cui Liuxian quickly went upstairs again.

Jiang Ruolan, on the other hand, was puzzled. She never thought Cui Liuxian would actually have the leisure and elegance to raise a flower herself. She asked, "Grandfather, does Cui Liuxian like to planting flowers?"

"No, she only loves this pot of flower." The Old Man shook his head, "This potted flower was bought by Zihao after he returned home. Liuxian pestered him to go to the Flower Bird Fish Market with her at that time. Originally, she wanted to buy a small bird to play with, but she took a fancy to this potted four-leaf flower."

"Liuxian said that this was her lucky flower, so Zihao bought this potted four-leaf flower for her. After all these years, she learned how to grow flowers herself, and finally, she managed to let this potted flower live for so many years."

At this point, the Old Man suddenly laughed in a low tone. "Spoiled girl, you can't blame grandpa for favoring Liuxian every now and then, can you?"

"Grandpa's heart isn't biased. After all, Cui Liuxian was raised by you personally. She is no different from your own granddaughter. It is natural for you to dote on her. How can I blame you?" Jiang Ruolan smiled.

Actually, when Cui Liuxian had served her tea earlier, Jiang Ruolan already knew what Cui Liuxian was thinking, but she didn't want to expose her in front of the Old Man. But she didn't expect the Old Man to "remind" Cui Liuxian. Otherwise, if Cui Liuxian really did this, Jiang Ruolan would ruthlessly beat her up.

When Jiang Ruolan returned to her room, Xian Zihao was standing on the balcony, answering the call. However, when she entered the room, he hung up at the same time and walked over with a smile as he glanced back at her.

"You went to play chess with the Old Man?" His voice was warm and light as usual.

"How do you know I'm playing chess with the Old Man?"

"I saw it when I went downstairs, but I had to pick up the phone at the last minute and went back to our room." Xian Zihao smiled.

Jiang Ruolan took off her coat and hung it on the side. She looked at his phone and then looked up at him.

She would not make wild guesses. Moreover, if it was Xiaoyi on the phone, Jiang Ruolan knew that Xian Zihao would definitely tell her. However, seeing the calmness in his eyes, yet seemingly having something on his mind, she could not help but think of other things.

Especially Qin Gengxin's call he received this afternoon.

"Did the Old Man and mom know about Guiying's pregnancy?" She asked softly.

"They don't know yet, but Guiying can't hide it anymore." Xian Zihao's voice was calm, but his eyes were serious. "She will come back tomorrow. There will be a conclusion to this matter."

"Did Qin Gengxin know about this?"

Xian Zihao pursed his lips. His serious expression was slightly warmed by Jiang Ruolan's presence. In the end, he nodded his head lightly.

No wonder Qin Gengxin hadn't appeared for so long. No wonder he didn't call again to tease her and didn't appear in front of her from time to time.

However, Jiang Ruolan was more worried about Xian Guiying's situation now. Judging by the time, Xian Guiying's fetus should be close to five months, but no matter how hard she tried to hide it, with so many people coming and going around her, she couldn't just lock herself up and not see anyone.

Could Xian Guiying's child still be kept? Qin Gengxin's personality had always been unpredictable. Jiang Ruolan wasn't sure what choice he would make. She only hoped that he definitely wouldn't do anything that would hurt Xian Guiying.
