Chapter 903: Chapter 899

"Gu Xiaoning!" Le Zhengsheng also got angry, "How should I tell you? Who goes to school while they’re pregnant?"

"I’m not big yet, am I?" Gu Xiaoning stubbornly replied, "I can come back during the holidays..."

Le Zhengsheng was speechless, "Does that make sense? Who works so hard just to study? Our family’s financial condition doesn’t require you to make such an effort. Even if you end up as a housewife your whole life, so what? Do you know how many people envy your kind of life?"

"You..."

Gu Xiaoning was at a loss for words, her face turning pale.

"Le Zhengsheng! You look down on people!"

She turned around and stormed out!

"Honey!"

Le Zhengsheng was frustrated and couldn’t understand what was wrong with Ningning? She had always had a good temperament, why did she suddenly have these strange ideas recently? And no matter how he tried to persuade her, it didn’t work.

Le Zhengsheng chased after her, but Gu Xiaoning had already run downstairs.

Upon exiting, they bumped into Gu’s mom.

"Mom." Le Zhengsheng looked a bit uneasy.

Gu’s mom frowned, "What’s wrong with you two? Are you arguing?"

Their daughter’s and son-in-law’s relationship had always been good, rarely even a blush, but now they’re arguing?

Le Zhengsheng shook his head, thought for a while, and sighed, "Mom, could you help me persuade Ningning? I don’t know what’s gotten into her; she insists on going abroad to study at this time!"

"What?" Gu’s mom was shocked, finding it unbelievable, "Why would she have such an absurd idea?"

Le Zhengsheng gave a bitter smile, "I don’t know either, she’s being unreasonable. I don’t know where she got this idea from a teacher, it’s just..."

He shook his head helplessly, "Mom, I’ll go downstairs to coax her first."

"Oh..." Gu’s mom agreed, her brows furrowing tightly.

Oh no! After countless warnings and reminders, Ningning still caused trouble! What exactly does she want? Why doesn’t she want to be a good young madam but instead insists on getting tangled up with that teacher? Has she lost her mind?

Le Zhengsheng found Gu Xiaoning in the yard.

Gu Xiaoning was sitting on the porch floor hugging her knees and crying...

She was so sad; she hadn’t wanted to treat Ah Sheng like that!

From a distance, Le Zhengsheng walked over, saw his wife crying, and his heart immediately softened. He squatted in front of her without saying a word and held her in his arms.

He indulged her immensely, "It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have raised my voice."

"Waa..." Gu Xiaoning sobbed, burying herself in his arms.

Le Zhengsheng couldn’t understand; was studying really that great? No matter how his wife thought, he wouldn’t agree to it. How could their family separate at this time? He had to accompany her through the pregnancy and witness the child’s birth.

...

The next day, Le Zhengsheng went to Guan Chao.

Gu Xiaoning wanted to go out but found the door was locked.

"Huh? What’s going on?"

Outside, Gu’s mom’s voice sounded, "Gu Xiaoning, from today on, you will stay at home honestly, and you’re not allowed to go anywhere!"

Gu Xiaoning panicked upon hearing this, "Mom! Don’t do this, open the door quickly, I have an appointment and something very important to do!"

"Hmph!" Gu’s mom snorted, "What important thing could you possibly have? An appointment? With that teacher! Gu Xiaoning, you are really confused! How could you do such a thing? You chose Ah Sheng yourself! How did you confidently tell me back then? How long has it been now since then? And now this!"

"Mom!" Gu Xiaoning was anxious, "How many times do I have to say it, I really haven’t wronged Ah Sheng!"

"How am I supposed to believe that?" Gu’s mom was even more anxious than her, "Fine, give me a reason; why do you have to meet that Su Hang? What’s the big reason?"

"I..." Gu Xiaoning stammered, "I want to study!"

"Hmph!" Gu’s mom was infuriated, "Ridiculous reason!"

Their argument here unintentionally attracted Le Zhengpeng.

"Madam in-law, you and Ningning..." Le Zhengpeng leaned on his cane, looking puzzled, "Are you arguing?"

He had been here for a while and heard a bit vaguely.

"..." Gu’s mom’s face changed, she was quite frightened!

What to do? It wouldn’t be as bad if it were Le Zhengsheng, but why did it have to be Le Zhengpeng who caught them?

Le Zhengpeng scrutinized her, stepping closer, "I think I heard something... Did someone say sorry to Ah Sheng? Something about studying... What on earth is going on?"

Gu’s mom was flustered, pulling at her lips, "It’s not... Not exactly..."

She was tongue-tied and had no idea how to explain. She could only bow to Le Zhengpeng and apologize, "Mr. Le Zheng, this matter is Ningning’s fault, I’ve already talked to her... I will definitely make her give up the idea of studying!"

"Studying?"

Le Zhengpeng frowned deeply, as if he’d heard a huge joke, "Tch! Why make a fuss over something good? Is she tired of being a young madam?"

Chapter 597: Did You Win?

When Le Zhengsheng returned, Gu’s mom was waiting for him at the entrance.

"Ah Sheng..."

"Yes, mom." Le Zhengsheng smiled, "Today I specifically asked the doctor. The doctor said Ningning’s situation might be due to pregnancy. Pregnant women have strange emotions, sometimes with stubborn thoughts. As long as I care a bit more, it will pass..."

As he spoke, he walked upstairs.

Gu’s mom seemed hesitant to speak, "Ah Sheng."

"Mom, did you want to say something?" Le Zhengsheng stopped in his tracks.

Gu’s mom frowned, "Ningning is childish, you are a few years older than her. Considering she’s pregnant, be more forgiving."

Le Zhengsheng laughed, "Of course, I won’t argue with her. Arguing with a pregnant wife, would that even be a man?"

"Ah, that’s good." Gu’s mom nodded, still feeling uneasy.

Gu Xiaoning was not in the bedroom; she was in the study.

Le Zhengpeng tapped his cane, visibly displeased, "It’s really so childish! How dare you attempt to study while carrying my grandchild! It’s outrageous..."

Gu Xiaoning kept her head down, not daring to make a sound.

Le Zhengsheng hurriedly opened the door and rushed in to embrace Gu Xiaoning, "Dad, don’t use your intimidation on Ningning, it might scare her."

"Scare her?" Le Zhengpeng flared his nostrils and glared, "I was scared by her! How could she talk about something as ridiculous as studying!"

"Dad!"

Le Zhengsheng glanced at Gu Xiaoning, who truly looked frightened, "I will talk to her; please don’t scold her! It’s scary for the grandchild..."

"Hmm!" Le Zhengpeng sighed, "If it weren’t for the grandchild, I would’ve made her kneel in the ancestral hall! Such talk, how could she say it recklessly?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Le Zhengsheng quickly led her away, "I will teach her properly, definitely talk it over well!"

Coming out from the study, Gu Xiaoning stood staring blankly, the father-in-law was terrifying when angry. Now, she was worried that insisting on leaving wouldn’t only be difficult to explain to Ah Sheng but might also face huge obstacles from the father-in-law.

"Ah Sheng!"

Gu Xiaoning cried and threw herself into Le Zhengsheng’s arms, hugging him tightly.

Le Zhengsheng laughed, "Realized you’re scared? That’s good then; realize fear, then change. My dad isn’t easily swayed; he, you know, cherishes the little grandchild more than life itself, right?"

Gu Xiaoning lifted her head, tears brimming, "Ah Sheng, if I make a mistake, will you forgive me?"

Le Zhengsheng thought she acknowledged her mistake and gave up on the idea of studying.

What couldn’t be forgiven? His wife, naturally she should be pampered and indulged.

Le Zhengsheng kissed her lightly, softly saying, "Of course, you are my wife, you make a mistake, it’s my mistake too. Must be something I didn’t do well."

Ah Sheng... How can you be so good?

"Waa..." Gu Xiaoning cried even harder, "Honey, you are so good..."

Le Zhengsheng smiled, "You call me husband, I’ll treat you well."

He looked into her eyes, his tone and expression serious, "I only treat my wife well."

Gu Xiaoning was dazed, her heart a mess and soaking wet.
