Chapter 2698: The Little White Rabbit
“Do you not like it? What do you like, then?” Cheng Fei asked. “No matter where you want to go, I’ll accompany you there.”
Ning Shu leaned back against the sofa. She wanted to be as far away from Cheng Fei as possible. She said, “Why don’t we go visit your parents? We’ve been married for so long, but we haven’t gone abroad to visit them. It’s been such a long time, why don’t we take this opportunity to visit them?”
While Ning Shu talked, she also observed Cheng Fei’s expression. It was still very natural. He asked, “Do you miss them?”
“Well, I am their daughter-in-law, after all, so I naturally have to pay them a visit. I think we should go abroad to visit your parents and see how they are doing.”
Cheng Fei nodded. “Okay. I’ll call them and ask where they are now.”
Ning Shu smiled and nodded.
What, was he going to call a ghost?
Would he hire another pair of fake parents?
Why was Cheng Fei hiding the fact that his adoptive parents had died?
“It’s settled, then,” Ning Shu lightly said.
Seeing Ning Shu and Cheng Fei talking made Mother Ai feel better. So many bad things had happened recently, and for once, something good finally happened.
During the meal, Cheng Fei told Ai Yun’s parents about their intention to go on a trip.
Mother Ai agreed without even thinking about it. “We’ve all gone through a lot recently. It’d be good to go out and relax for a bit.”
Professor Ai didn’t say anything. He just stared at Ning Shu with some suspicion. After they ate, he found a chance to be alone with Ning Shu and asked her, “I thought you were suspicious of Cheng Fei. Why are you giving him a chance to be alone with you?
“Traveling means that you’ll be prone to accidents. I think you should rethink this.” Professor Ai was worried. “Why do you suddenly want to travel with him?”
When Professor Ai was faced with the choice of either his daughter or his son-in-law, he would, of course, choose his own daughter.
It was also impossible to say that Professor Ai never inwardly suspected Cheng Fei.
The matter of the kidnapping could be closed with Li Chen’s appearance.
However, he still couldn’t accept that Cheng Fei had sewed a tracker into his daughter’s wound.
Cheng Fei said that Ai Yun was mentally ill, but his daughter looked very well and normal.
This was why Professor Ai disapproved of Cheng Fei and Ning Shu’s plan to go on a trip during these troubled times.
Ning Shu simply remarked, “We’re not necessarily going on a trip, Dad. We’re just going abroad to visit Ceng Fei’s parents. The last time we met was when Cheng Fei and I got married, and they didn’t even talk to me then.
“It’s been what, two years? In that time, they haven’t even so much as called. I just want to see if something has happened to them. How can they not contact us for such a long time?”
Professor Ai still disagreed. “I don’t think it is very wise. I think you shouldn’t go out for a while, Ai Yun. The kidnapping case is still not over yet.”
“Don’t worry, Dad,” Ning Shu comforted Professor Ai, “I’ll be fine.”
“Dad, Ai Yun,” Cheng Fei came to the balcony and called them. “Mom asked me to call you two over to have some fruit.”
Professor Ai nodded and went back in.
Ning Shu and Cheng Fei were the only ones left on the balcony. Cheng Fei asked, “Dad doesn’t look well. Did something happen?”
Ning Shu leaned on the balcony railings and gazed at the night view of the city. She said, “Dad doesn’t think we should visit your parents right now. He thinks we should wait for things to calm down, then pick a suitable day. Dad said that he’ll come with us to visit your parents.”
Cheng Fei laughed. “There’s no need for that. Dad’s too polite. Why be this polite when we’re all family?”
Tsk tsk tsk. Even Ning Shu had to clap for such a shameless person, who could spit lies from between his teeth without even so much as batting an eye?
And the thing was, he didn’t even look like he was lying.
