ession increasingly resentful and her voice trembling."So... that's why he invited Lu Ningxi to the wedding, because it was all part of his plan"Even if I had lied to him first, he wouldn't humiliate...Li Boche's anger reached its peak, his emotions exploding instantly. All the food on the table was overturned, and dishes were scattered everywhere in a chaotic mess!

“I don’t even mind that she married and slept with Yu Chengnan! I just want her and the child to stay by my side, but she's desperate to leave. Is she not willing to let go of Yu Chengnan Am I that bad”

A great commotion made Luo Ningxi, who was about to go upstairs, tremble. She gripped the handrail tightly.

The man's fury, every word of it, seeped into her ears like a pair of hands tearing at her heart, leaving it raw and bleeding.

"Baby, don't listen to the barking dog, let's go upstairs first." Su Qiao noticed Luo Ningxi's mood and glared fiercely at the person behind her, then helped her up the stairs.

Back to the room.

Su Qiao first poured a glass of water for Luo Ningxi, letting her calm down first.

Lo Ningxi took the cup and saw her anxious expression. She smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, it's nothing. I was just doing that for Li Botong to see."

"Doing this for him" Su Qiao looked at Luo Ningxi with suspicion and worry, "But baby, under normal circumstances, shouldn't you try to please him and make him relax his guard"

"We should appease him, but not now. Li Bochen isn't normal; we can't deal with him using ordinary methods. If I flatter him at this time, he'll become even more wary." Luo Ningxi stated the key point in a single sentence.

"That makes sense, Li Bochen is a lunatic." Su Qiao nodded in agreement and then hugged her with sympathy, "To have you stay beside a madman for so long, it's truly pitiful."

"Alright, don't crush your son-in-law." Luo Ningxi symbolically pushed her. "If you have time, remember to find out when Nan Hanchuan is going back so we can move on to the next step of the plan!"

He's estimated to stay for a few days, you can hold on a little longer.

Su Qiao said, putting her hand on Luo Ningxi's belly again, and murmured, "Baby, you have to hold on a little longer, Mom and Auntie will be able to take you away from this hellish place soon!"

……

On the other side.

After dinner, Li Boheng's face remained unchanged.

Nan Hanchuan couldn't stand it anymore and went for a stroll on the beach.

As soon as Li Bochen stepped into the kitchen to get some wine, he heard a rustling sound.

He frowned slightly, and as he looked up, he saw a shadow flash past the side of the dock.

"Who"

The kitchen lights suddenly flickered on. Li Bochen flipped the switch and saw Luo Ningxi in her pajamas squatting beside the island, holding two eggs in her hand.

Their eyes met, both frozen for a few seconds.

Li Bohan's handsome brow furrowed, and he spoke first, questioning, "What are you doing"

Luningxi lowered her eyes, avoiding his gaze. She stubbornly pursed her lips, "Jojo is hungry, I'll go find her something to eat."

Looking at her increasingly gaunt cheeks, Li Bochen's anger that had been building since the evening suddenly dissipated by half. "You haven't eaten anything either. Su Qiao is important, but you and the child are equally important!"

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Luo Ningxi to react, he came to the gas stove and started boiling water.

She thought Li Bochen was just helping to cook eggs, but she didn't expect him to neatly crack two eggs into a bowl and then put them in the steamer.

Soon, the aroma of eggs wafted from the steamer onto the surface.

Luningxi was truly hungry. He silently leaned against the refrigerator, staring at the countdown timer over the pot with him.

The cold kitchen suddenly came alive with warmth.

Luo Ningxi watched the man's calm and skilled movements, her heart inexplicably feeling a little dazed.

It seemed like the two of them were back in the small kitchen of Jinkai Apartment. Li Boche was woken up by her late at night to make supper.

Two people were clearly very happy at that time, how did they get to this point today

"What are you thinking about" Li Boche noticed Luo Ningxi's absentmindedness and glanced at her with his peripheral vision.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly forgot you could cook." Luo Ningxi shook her head and naturally walked over to grab the cutlery, putting on an unconcerned look as she spoke, "I was wrong this afternoon. I lost control of my emotions."

Li Bochen's hand stirring the marinade paused, letting out a lukewarm "Hmm,". "Changing tactics Knowing I don't respond to hard approaches, now you start apologizing to make me feel less guarded so you can run away again"

Luo Ningxi's hand paused mid-air, her gaze falling on the man's fathomless black eyes. As if mocking herself, she said, "Where could I possibly run to You wouldn't let me go."

"Since you know, just stay by my side and give birth to the baby. Don't challenge my patience anymore." Li Bochen stared at her for a few seconds, then continued, "Otherwise, I can't control myself and might do something out of line..."

"Counting the time, I still have seven months until I give birth." Luoningxi directly interrupted Li Bichen's words, "Li Bichen, I'm too tired and don't have the energy to argue with you anymore. Seven months, I want you to promise me that after I give birth, you'll let me go."

Li Bochen's face instantly turned as dark as thunder, and he said in a frigid voice, "So this is your true intention all along"ere's no possibility..."And...Luo Ning helplessly placed her hand on her stomach. She was currently pregnant with Li Bochen's child. Yu Chengnan had already given up a kidney for her, how could she bu...
