Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 226 I Also Want a Wife!

Chapter 226 I Also Want a Wife!

Early in the morning, the policeman who came yesterday calls Chen Hong. Chen Hong’s expression changes after listening to a few words.

“What’s wrong?” Everyone is having breakfast. They all put down the chopsticks when seeing her face.

Chen Hong puts down her phone slowly and says, “Feng Meixin died.”

“She’s dead?” Chen Xiaopang reacts most. Lang Ruoxian just said that Feng Meixin knew the two bad guys yesterday. So they suspected that Feng Meixin intentionally approached them and provided information to the bad guys. Without Wuyou, Xiaojiu would have been taken away yesterday.

Chen Xiaopang is the person who regrets most. Because he brought Feng Meixin here. He is so wrathful that he plans to go to the hospital later to get even with Feng Meixin. How could she die suddenly?

“The policeman said she jumped off the hospital’s roof in the midnight.” Chen Hong says with her serious expression, “When you go to the police station to be debriefed, remember to read her suicide note.”

It seems that Yan Hua thinks of something. She asks, “Suicide? Did she even write a suicide note?”

“That’s what the police said.” Chen Hong pours hot milk to the children and says, “But I think the police also doubt that.”

After breakfast, all the men go to the police station. Yan Hua and others take their children to play on the beach. Xiaojiu is still a little scared and always hides behind Mingxi. Mingxi has to help her to go forward.

Gungun also takes care of her behind them, like a little adult. Yan Hua finds Xiaojiu’s attitude towards Wuyou changes. Xiaojiu used to dislike Wuyou. At that time, Fei Ying was anxious and thought it was terrible.

Yan Hua also comforted her, “Don’t underestimate the child’s psychology. Xiaojiu is just not used to accepting that Gungun plays with other kids. I’m sure she’ll figure it out for herself. Give her some time.”

“Let me tell you!” Fei Ying runs up from the sea and sits down quickly. She says, “When I was swimming in the sea, Xiaojiu always pulled Wuyou and wanted to play with her.”

Yan Hua hands her the bath towel and says, “I’ve said it before. Kids need some time to accept it!”

“Wuyou saved her yesterday. Not only Xiaojiu, but also I am grateful for Wuyou.” Fei Ying says. She feels that she should buy some gifts for Wuyou, otherwise she will feel sorry.

Yan Hua shakes her head and says, “Ying, I hope you regard Wuyou as my daughter, just like Gungun. Will you be so polite to Gungun?”

“Hua...” Fei Ying bites her lip. Well, although Wuyou has already been a child of Tang Family, she didn’t regard that child as Yan Hua’s daughter before. Otherwise she would not have such an idea.

“I know, Hua!” Fei Ying pats her thigh and says, “Rest assured. I know how to do it.”

Lang Ruoxian and others come out of the police station.

“Mr. Lang, we checked it. It is indeed that she died of suicide.”

But he doesn’t believe what the police said.

“My people have gone to the hospital to check. Let’s wait for the results.” Fei Yi says. He doesn’t believe it, either. And he also has a copy of Feng Meixin’s suicide note with only one sentence on it.

She wrote, “I’m wrong. I’m sorry for everyone. Goodbye.”

Chen Xiaopang looks angry. He says, “Can it be called a suicide note? I don’t believe it. That girl must not die of suicide!”

“There must be someone behind it.” Li Yi smacks his lips. He looks at Fei Yi and says, “They wanted to kidnap Xiaojiu. I think they are aimed at your family.”

Fei Yi’s eyes grow deep slowly, and he curls the corners of his mouth coldly. “Maybe... There was a fish escaped through the seine at that time.”

Chen Xiaopang doesn’t understand what he means, but Lang Ruoxian and Li Yi do. In that year, in order to marry Fei Ying and have the say in Fei Family, Fei Yi beat many illegitimate sons and cousins.

If there are more enemies, there will be more debts. Some hidden troubles would be left if he wasn’t careful enough. Fei Yi suddenly thinks of something and makes a phone call. Back to the villa by the sea, Tang Cao and Chen Xiaopang play with the children at the door. Other adults sit in the sitting room for analysis.

“Can you be sure he’s coming for us?” Fei Ying asks her husband pitifully, “What should we do? He’s hidden in the dark. We don’t even know who he is.”

“By the way, do you need to call Fei Shan to let him be careful? How about giving him a few bodyguards?”

Fei Yi comforts his little wife, “Don’t be afraid. I’ve already called him. Since we could win that year, we can win now. Although now I don’t know who he is, as long as he takes actions, he will leave traces and we will catch him sooner or later.”

Fei Ying is very scared. She remembers clearly what happened more than 10 years ago. At that time, members of the Fei Family fought damaging personal battles. In order not to be a burden on Fei Yi, she and Fei Shan hid themselves from place to place. At the worst time, they had to change places every day.

They were also afraid that something might happen to Fei Yi.

“You’re a law-abiding businessman now. You don’t have to fight with them. What are the police for?” Lang Ruoxian reminds him, “Besides, I think only one person who plans to revenge you. Otherwise he would have done something big.”

Yan Hua, however, is still worried. She says, “But now the small action behind the scenes makes us defenseless.” She pauses for a while and suddenly suggests, “Would you like Xiaojiu to study in Yanjing’s Caesar School?”

“Go to Yanjing?” Fei Ying is stunned.

“Yes! Yanjing’s public security is the best. No one dares to hurt others casually. It’s safer for Xiaojiu to study in Yanjing than G City. You can come with her!”

Fei Yi looks at Fei Ying. Fei Ying grabs his hand and says, “Let... Let me think about it.”

At night Chen Hong sees her son sitting alone in a beach chair. Xiaojiu and Gungun are making a sandcastle not far from him.

“Why don’t you play with Xiaojiu?” Chen Hong asks.

Mingxi looks up at her and says, “Mom, is Xiaojiu going to study in Yanjing?”

“Did you hear that?” Chen Hong sits down beside him and explains, “Your Aunt Hua said that Yanjing was safer. What she said is reasonable.”

Mingxi lowers his head. Chen Hong rubs her son’s head with a smile. She asks, “You don’t want to be separated from Xiaojiu, do you?”

“I swore yesterday that I would never leave her again.” Mingxi is a little sad. “But...”

“Silly boy, you can go to Yanjing to study with her!” Chen Hong says, “You can do it!”

But Mingxi shakes his head and says, “I don’t want to leave you.”

“How dutiful my son is!” Chen Hong smiles, “So now are you making a hard choice between your mother and your future wife? I suddenly think of an online test. Which one would you save first if your wife and mother fall into a river?”

Mingxi glares at her. “Mom... You are really...”

“All right!” Chen Hong pats him on the shoulder and says, “We haven’t decided to let Xiaojiu study in Yanjing. You don’t need to torture yourself. If she had to leave, you could go with her and I would fly to see you once a week!”

Mingxi reaches out and throws himself into Chen Hong’s arms like what he did when he was young. He says, “Mom, you are the most important. You are the most important person for me in the world.”

“Come on!” Chen Hong pats his forehead and says, “I used to be your most important person. But now you have a wife. Your wife is the most important person for you.”

As soon as Mingxi wants to say don’t tease him, he hears that a kid next to him asks a question.

“Does Brother Mingxi have a wife?”

Chen Hong and Mingxi raise their heads. Then they see Xiaojiu standing there with tears in her eyes.

Mingxi is shocked, “Xiaojiu!”

“Do you have a wife? Will you leave me?” Xiaojiu bursts out crying. “You are kidding me. You said you would marry me when I grew up. You are a liar. I hate you!”

Chen Hong doesn’t know whether to cry or laugh. She says, “Oh, my dear, his wife is you!”

“Hah!” Hearing the crying, Fei Ying was frightened and thought something had happened. But she also laughs when she closes to them to hear. She says, “You should cry after knowing what happened. You almost scared me to death.”

Gungun also runs over and is particularly innocent to say. “Brother Mingxi doesn’t want you!”

“No!” Mingxi hurries to say, and hugs Xiaojiu into his arms. He says, “I... I only have you.”

Xiaojiu sobs intermittently and looks at him. “It’s... really?”

“Yes!” Mingxi almost swears to her, “I will have only one wife in the future. That is Xiaojiu.”

Xiaojiu smiles through tears. Fei Ying pulls her into a room to wash her face. Mingxi follows her closely. Chen Hong also happily goes to tell Li Yi the story about how their son loves his wife since childhood.

Gungun thinks of something and runs into the house.

“Mom! Mom!”

Yan Hua is watching the news to see if there is any local report about Feng Meixin’s jumping from a building. Her son suddenly throws himself into her arms.

“What happened?”

Gungun smiles shyly, “Mom, is Sister Xiaojiu the wife of Brother Mingxi?”

“... Who did you listen to?”

“Just now! Sister Xiaojiu thought that Brother Mingxi didn’t want her, so she cried sadly. Then Brother Mingxi swore that his wife would only be Sister Xiaojiu.”

Yan Hua tries not to laugh. She asks, “Well, what do you want to say if Xiaojiu is Mingxi’s wife?”

“Then... Then...” Gungun touches his forefinger with another forefinger. “Then I also want to bring up a wife!”

Yan Hua is shocked.

“Can’t I?” Gungun carefully asks, “Brother Mingxi grows up with Sister Xiaojiu since they were young. I also want to bring up a wife so that we can grow up together. What if I can’t find a wife in the future?”

Seeing Yan Hua still doesn’t say a word, Gungun persuades her again, “Look at my uncle, he still doesn’t have a wife. How pitiful he is!”

Tang Cao who is going to the toilet is angry to hear that.

“How dare you blame me that I don’t have a wife?” He comes to poke Gungun and says, “I just haven’t found one yet! You should go to ask how many girls want to be my wife in whole Yanjing. These girls can line up from Yanjing to Pu Island!”

“Besides, you have already had a wife, haven’t you? Wuyou...”

“Tang Cao!” Yan Hua casts a glance at him.

Unfortunately, Gungun has heard it.

“Wuyou?” Gungun is shocked as if the world is destroyed, “She... She’s my elder sister!”

Yan Hua pats Tang Cao angrily. Tang Cao laughs, “But... Elder sister can also be your wife. It’s good that the wife is three years older than her husband! Wuyou is just three years older than you.”

“Gungun...” Seeing that her son still has a soulless expression, Yan Hua coughs twice and says, “You don’t like Wuyou?”

Gungun shakes his head. Then he nods. Then he shakes again.

“I like her.” Finally he whispers, “But Wuyou is my elder sister.”

Yan Hua regrets a little to tell Gungun that Wuyou is his sister. It seems that Gungun insists on that. She explains to him for a long time. But he finally goes away in frustration.

“Sister...” Tang Cao shakes Yan Hua’s arm and says, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it.”

Yan Hua scolds him, “Behave normally!”

“That’s how I talk. I’m the little cutie!” Tang Cao puts his hands on his face and clenches his fists.

Yan Hua shows the whites of her eyes and says, “Go away. Go away. I’m going to throw up.”

The next day, Fei Yi’s people send back an important message.
