Stop Messing Around, Mr Bo!

Chapter 1714 - Why?

Chapter 1714: Why?

“Are you guys hiding something from me?”

Ji Fengmian’s hand paused for a moment. He held his pen and slowly leaned back in his chair, watching everything that happened in the room calmly.

Ye Jingyun froze and the expression on her face froze when she heard the voice.

Queen Yulia didn’t look too happy either. “Why are you back?”

Beads of sweat covered Bailey’s face. She let go of the door frame and walked into the room slowly.

“I’m not feeling well. Sister Fanxing was kind enough to let me rest. She went to the manor to pick fruits for Grandma…”

Queen Yulia pursed her lips at her choppy speech.

“Grandma, Mother, what were you talking about?”

Bailey didn’t linger on her illness and looked at the two of them in confusion.

Ye Jingyun wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and took a deep breath. She closed her eyes as though she had made a huge decision.

“…Forget it, you’ll find out sooner or later anyway… You should know about your father and Mu Wanwan… Now… Mu Wanwan is pregnant. We have to bring your Auntie Mu back…”

Bailey looked startled.

“Father, he…”

Ye Jingyun turned her face away and said, “Yes… you’re going to have a brother…”

The room fell silent again.

Bailey was silent for a long time, her face full of sadness. In the end, she forced a smile and said softly,

“This… This is a good thing. Congratulations, Grandma. The royal family finally has a successor.”

Her words sounded obviously forced.

But if she really didn’t mind at all, it would seem too fake.

Now, it was really heartbreaking.

The “real” reaction of the mother and daughter made Queen Yulia feel a little guilty.

After all, this was something his nephew had done…

The atmosphere in the room was a little strange.

Queen Yulia looked up at Ji Fengmian and saw her leaning against the office chair with a faint smile, looking at them silently.

Her heart skipped a beat, but she said, “Feng Mian, you’re really lucky. You’ve just returned and you’re about to become an aunt again.”

Ye Jingyun and Bailey looked at her slowly.

A faint smile appeared on Ji Fengmian’s calm face. When his calm eyes met their gazes, there was an obvious smile.

Queen Yulia’s words made her frown. Her lips curled slightly as she spoke calmly.

“At my age, isn’t it normal for me to be an aunt?”

Ye Jingyun paused. She wanted to say that Bailey was actually her niece, but…

How could she say that?

Moreover, Ji Fengmian was obviously unwilling to acknowledge Bei Lei and Bei Xi.

Even she could hear the sarcasm in his voice.

“From the looks of it, you feel aggrieved after what happened?”

Ji Fengmian placed his hands casually on the armrests of the chair. With a pen in one hand and a cap in the other, he naturally clasped and separated them.

Her gaze landed on Ye Jingyun, causing her to hold her breath.

“In Country Y, it’s never a monogamous system, right? Ordinary families have a few sisters who take care of the house and love each other. Why don’t I have the right to bring a woman home?”

Queen Yulia looked a little embarrassed.

If she had to talk about this, it was because of her indulgence.

Ye Jingyun bit her lips. “…That’s true, but… I’m a traditional citizen after all…”

“Traditional countrymen? You’ve been a princess in Country Y for more than 30 years, but you want others to follow your habits? Why? Did the royal family owe you in your previous life or what? Is it your turn to do whatever you want now?”

Ye Jingyun was embarrassed by Ji Fengmian’s words. “Can you be with another woman?”

“If I can’t do it, I won’t marry this man from Country Y.”

Ye Jingyun choked. William was the saddest person she could not mention in her life.

Hearing Ji Fengmian’s words, she felt a little angry.

She sneered. “You make it sound so easy. If you meet a man you like, will you give up just like that?!”

The room was silent for a while.

Just as everyone thought that Ji Fengmian was rendered speechless by Ye Jingyun’s rebuttal, she said slowly,

“I will.”

“Since he’s not my only one, there’s no happiness and only harm. I won’t want such a man. I can live without him.”

She fell silent again for a second and frowned. She changed the topic and said, “You should have received your wife long ago because you’ve been living outside for so long. Now that you’re here, you’re aggrieved and you have no choice but to show your tolerance and magnanimity… Don’t you think it’s ridiculous? If the royal family wants to take back our bloodline, we have to obtain your approval and be grateful to you, right?”

“Have you ever thought that if not for you, I would be the aunt of a few children?”

Ji Fengmian clicked the pen and cap together and turned to look at Queen Yulia.

“It’s not easy being an aunt. Congratulations.”

These words did not make Ye Jingyun speechless, nor did she give Queen Yulia any face.

She was not Fanxing. There was a barrier between them when she called her Grandma. Fanxing had to be more tolerant and understanding towards Grandma for any reason.

However, as her biological daughter, if she didn’t point out her fault, no one in this world would dare to treat her like this.

How could one be heartless?

It was true that Ye Jingyun had accompanied her for so many years, but it was also true that she had subtly guided Queen Yulia.

She had to wake her mother up!

Queen Yulia was ashamed by Ji Fengmian’s words.

However, she finally realized what she had done all these years because she doted on Ye Jingyun.

Since ancient times, Country Y had never had a monogamous system.

However, she felt much more relieved because of Ye Jingyun’s ‘sensibleness’.

Getting used to such things… was too scary.

She had just gained a good impression from Queen Yulia, but now, she had been beaten up by Ji Fengmian’s words. Now, her crimes had worsened. Ye Jingyun gritted her teeth in hatred.

However, Bei Lei stared at Ji Fengmian for a long time, her expression becoming more and more guarded.

She felt that something was amiss.

Was Ji Fengmian too shrewd or did she not care at all?

Why…

She wasn’t surprised that Mu Wanwan was pregnant?

Not even any unnecessary emotions?

[Explain that you’re not arguing with anyone. You think that… the Queen is a very normal person… o(* ?? ?) ? ? [Smack the table and laugh maniacally!]
