236: The two sisters reached a tacit understanding on certain matters.

Chen Yuxi snuggled in Lin Zifeng's arms, looking into his eyes while speaking softly, "Husband, ever since we arrived here today, I've felt that you've been acting very cautiously.

I can see that you love little Haotian very much, which is no surprise since little Haotian is your biological son after all!

You're being so cautious just to be considerate of my feelings."

Lin Zifeng tightened his embrace and said with a hint of guilt, "I've made you feel wronged, wife."

"How could I feel wronged? Back before we even established our relationship, my sister got pregnant.

I knew about it as soon as she became pregnant. She was hesitating then about whether to keep the child, and it was I who persuaded her to keep him!

At that time, I thought that since my sister decided to stay single for life, having a child for company would mean she wouldn't be so lonely when she gets old.

I even helped her cover it up in front of my parents. From her pregnancy to going abroad to give birth, and then returning to raise Haotian here, I knew everything from the start.

So after we started dating, I had already anticipated that a scene like today's would happen.

You don't have to be so cautious anymore; it's mentally exhausting for you, and it hurts me to see it.

As long as you don't expose the relationship to the outside world, it's fine,"

Chen Yuxi said softly, suppressing the slight complexity in her heart to ease his psychological burden.

"Wife, you're so good. What more could a husband ask for with a wife like you!"

After Lin Zifeng said this, he gave Chen Yuxi a deep kiss on the forehead, and the two fell asleep in each other's arms.

After breakfast the next morning, Li Jing arrived early. Chen Haotian acted spoiled and asked Lin Zifeng to take him out to play.

The group discussed it and decided to take Chen Haotian to the amusement park, wanting to give him a good time.

After a quick cleanup, they took Chen Haotian downstairs.

Lin Zifeng drove, Chen Yuxi sat in the passenger seat, while Li Jing and Chen Yuqing took Chen Haotian in the back row.

Lin Zifeng drove all the way toward the amusement park.

The Little fellow had a great time. His laughter along the way lifted the adults' spirits as well, and they even had lunch out.

By evening, Li Jing left directly by taxi, and Lin Zifeng drove the other three back.

"Zifeng, Yuxi, why don't you both stay at my place again tonight?

Zifeng has to head back to Yushu County tomorrow, and your house hasn't been lived in for two or three months, so don't bother going back and forth.

Once Zifeng leaves the Provincial Capital, if Yuxi doesn't stay with me, she'll have to go home and live with Mom and Dad; we won't let you live alone.

The reason Yuxi came back to the Provincial Capital was so you could focus on your pregnancy. At my place, there's not only me but also a Nanny to help, and Mom will come over every day.

I still prefer that you stay with me during your pregnancy."

Chen Yuqing said thoughtfully.

Hearing her words, Lin Zifeng and Chen Yuxi shared a look before Chen Yuxi spoke up, "Then I'll listen to you, Sister."

"Great! Great! Maternal Aunt's Husband can bathe with me and tell me stories again!"

The Little fellow said, clapping his hands happily.

The group returned home, and after dinner, Lin Zifeng accompanied the Little fellow for a bath. Lying in his crib, the Little fellow fell asleep before Zifeng could even start a story.

The Little fellow had played hard and was tired, so he fell asleep very quickly today.

Lin Zifeng gave the Little fellow a light kiss on the forehead and tiptoed out of the nursery.

The night passed without incident. After lunch the next day, seen off by The two sisters, Lin Zifeng drove out of the Residential Community and toward the Expressway entrance.

The two sisters only looked away once Lin Zifeng's car disappeared from the community gates.

As they walked back, Chen Yuxi said, "Sister, Haotian is taking his nap. When he wakes up and sees Zifeng is gone, won't he cry?"

"Haotian will definitely miss Zifeng. Even if he cries, he'll be fine once I comfort him.

It can't be helped; Zifeng can't be with Haotian all the time!"

Chen Yuqing said somewhat helplessly.

"Sister, if there's a suitable opportunity in the future, you could take Haotian to Yushu County to see Zifeng. Zifeng would surely be overjoyed,"

Chen Yuxi said after some thought.

Hearing Chen Yuxi's suggestion, Chen Yuqing, who was opening the door, paused. She pulled her into the room and closed the door before saying, "Yuxi, what are you thinking?

How could you suggest such a thing? Aren't you afraid?"

She didn't finish, but Chen Yuxi understood what she meant.

"Sister, it's just the two of us sisters here, so I'll speak from the heart. I love Zifeng very much, and I also know you have feelings for him too.

Otherwise, no matter who tried to persuade you, you wouldn't have been so resolute about giving birth to Haotian.

Zifeng is great in every way, but he's just too strong in *that* aspect. He's young and full of vigor—do you understand what I mean?"

Chen Yuxi expressed her meaning implicitly.

"Yuxi, did you discover something about Zifeng?"

Chen Yuqing asked suspiciously.

"Sister, do you remember Jiang Yufei, the one who was quite close to Zifeng when he came to the Provincial Capital for the Trade-Fair Venue?"

Chen Yuxi answered with a question.

"Of course I remember. Isn't she the Town Head of Heping Town now? I know she and Zifeng are close, but could it be...?"

Chen Yuqing made a connection and stared at Chen Yuxi without blinking.

"I don't have any proof, I just feel their relationship isn't ordinary.

Before Zifeng and I started dating, they worked together almost every day. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were inseparable.

It wouldn't be surprising if something happened."

Chen Yuxi was holding back a bit because she had smelled Jiang Yufei's perfume on Lin Zifeng several times.

Although Lin Zifeng was very careful, he inevitably had moments of oversight.

Hearing Chen Yuxi's reply, Chen Yuqing nodded with mixed emotions and said nothing more. Hearing the sound of Chen Haotian waking up, she walked quickly toward the nursery.

Watching her sister walk toward the nursery, Chen Yuxi sighed softly in her heart. She knew that although her sister hadn't spoken, she was tempted by the suggestion.

Chen Yuxi knew that even if she didn't say anything, she wouldn't be able to stop certain things from happening in the future.

If that was the case, it was better to bring it out into the open herself!

With two people who have feelings for each other and the important bond of a child, some things are unstoppable.

Lin Zifeng, who was halfway home, had no idea that his relationship with Jiang Yufei had been noticed by Chen Yuxi despite his caution.

Even more so, he couldn't imagine that The two sisters had already reached a tacit understanding on certain matters.

If he knew about these things, one wonders how he would feel.
