Chapter 364: The Support of the Mother's Family
Chapter 364: The Support of the Mother's Family
In mid-November, the sun was still bright, like a piece of golden silk pouring down from the sky, but a hint of chill had begun to permeate the air, gently touching people's skin inadvertently, making them shiver slightly.
Wen Nianci and Chi Yizi walked side by side on the way to visit Chi Feiwan.
Wen Nianci's eyes were filled with concern and tenderness. She arranged the fruits and gifts in her hands from time to time, while Chi Yizi frowned with a complicated expression.
At this moment, Chi Feiwan was immersed in her own world. Her slightly bulging belly showed that she was six months pregnant.
With the company of this little life, her world became particularly peaceful.
She sat in front of the window, the sunlight shining through the window into the room, like a golden veil gently covering her body.
Chi Feiwan gently stroked her belly with a happy smile on her face. That smile was like a flower blooming in her heart, pure and beautiful.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang, breaking the silence. Chi Feiwan walked to the door carefully wearing slippers.
This courtyard house has some open-air designs, which is not very friendly to the living experience in a courtyard house in the gradually cold weather like in Beijing.
Walking through a slightly empty corridor, Chi Feiwan wrapped her scarf tightly, as if the scarf was her armor to protect her from the cold outside.
Chi Feiwan was a little surprised when he saw the two people standing at the door.
Wen Nianci was holding some fruits and some carefully selected gifts in his hands. The fruits gave off a faint fragrance, and the gifts were wrapped exceptionally beautifully.
Chi Yizi's hands were empty. This sharp contrast made people sigh that sisters-in-law are more competent than brothers.
Chi Feiwan stepped aside, enthusiastically let them in, quickly walked to the living room, and poured a cup of boiling hot tea for them.
Chi Yizi followed Wen Nianci to visit the courtyard.
The yard was cold and deserted. Although the plants were full of vitality and their leaves were emerald green, they gave people a dead feeling in this cold atmosphere.
His brows furrowed more and more, like a deep groove carved on his forehead. He couldn't help but ask, "Are you the only one at home?"
Chi Feiwan nodded and sat next to Wen Nianci. There was a coffee table between her and Chi Yizi, and this small coffee table was like an invisible barrier.
Chi Yizi picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. He wanted to use this scalding hot tea to calm his anger, but he never expected that the heat of the tea made his anger grow even more intense.
He closed his eyes and was silent for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes and asked sharply, "Where is Jiang Huaixu?"
Chi Feiwan replied softly: "He is at work."
Chi Yizi's tone was filled with dissatisfaction, and he continued to ask: "Are you really the only one at home? There's not even a nanny?"
Chi Feiwan shook his head and said calmly, "Third brother, I'm used to it."
There was a hint of sadness in her eyes. She had lived alone since she was seven years old, and even though she would sometimes return to Haicheng, she was not used to being served by others.
She was born to be a young lady, but she was not treated as a young lady should be.
Chi Yizi hadn't even sat down on the sofa when he suddenly stood up and left, with a hint of impatience on his face.
Wen Nianci looked at Chi Yizi's receding back in confusion, then looked at Chi Feiwan, his eyes full of questions: "Has your third brother's temper always been like this?"
Chi Feiwan nodded repeatedly: "He is like this, it's okay, don't worry about him."
In fact, Chi Feiwan was eager to be alone with Wen Nianci. She really enjoyed chatting with this sister-in-law.
In addition to visiting Chi Feiwan, Wen Nianci had another question lingering in her mind. She looked at Chi Feiwan and asked carefully, "Wanwan, your eldest brother told me that you were hospitalized because of stimulation, and mentioned the name Qian Shi'an. I am a little curious about who she is.
Of course, it’s okay if you don’t want to say it.”
This was just Wen Nianci's gossip. In fact, she didn't know a lot about the Chi family. She was the secretary and Chi Shiyun's wife. She knew best about the complicated relationship between her and Chi Shiyun.
Chi Shiyun said that a wife in name only doesn’t need to know too much.
The thing a secretary hates most is gossiping too much about the boss's private affairs, but Chi Shiyun said that Wanwan was hospitalized because of that guy named Qian Shian. She suddenly became a little curious why an ordinary person could turn the Jiang family upside down.
She knew the Jiang family in Beijing and the Chi family in Haicheng, but she didn't know much about the entertainment industry.
When Chi Feiwan heard this question, he was stunned for a moment, then asked back: "Didn't my elder brother tell you?"
Wen Nianci shook his head and said, "He won't tell me unless I ask."
Chi Feiwan asked again: "Sister-in-law, do you understand the entertainment industry?"
Qian Shi'an is a popular actress in the entertainment industry today. Of course, she doesn't go online and doesn't know about the public opinions. Chi Feiwan still thought that Qian Shi'an was as glamorous as she was before.
Wen Nianci shook his head again.
Chi Feiwan sighed slightly and said very calmly: "She is my father's illegitimate daughter."
It is a huge joke that an illegitimate daughter can have the upper hand over the children of the principal wife.
When Wen Nianci heard the news, her eyes widened in surprise. She never expected Qian Shian to have such an identity.
She was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "You just asked me if I knew anything about the entertainment industry. She's a star, right?"
Chi Feiwan's eyes dimmed. She recalled the unpleasant past and said slowly, "It's really hard to associate a glamorous female star who grew up pampered with everything. It's hard to imagine that she's an illegitimate daughter. But I, a rich lady, can't live as freely as a star."
It was only after Wen Nianci married Chi Shiyun that she realized the situation in the Chi family and the family atmosphere were really depressing. She felt that everyone in the family could devour a person's soul and slowly lead him or her to destruction.
Even an optimistic person would be close to collapse if he lived in the Chi family for a month.
Wen Nianci gently held Chi Feiwan's hand and comforted him, "Don't think too much. Now that you have a baby, you should be happy. Don't take those unpleasant things to heart anymore."
Chi Feiwan nodded, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
At this time, Chi Yizi was standing outside the gate of the courtyard, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
His dissatisfaction with Jiang Huaixu became increasingly intense. He felt that Jiang Huaixu had not fulfilled his responsibility to take care of Chi Feiwan.
He took out his cell phone and called Jiang Huaixu. Jiang Huaixu's voice came from the other end of the line: "Third brother, what's the matter?"
In fact, Jiang Huaixu is two months older than Chi Yizi, but according to seniority he has to call him Chi Yizi.
Chi Yizi never took the initiative to contact him unless it was about Chi Feiwan. As a man, Chi Yizi's tone every time he questioned him did not sound like a brother who wanted to support the American media.
Chi Yizi's tone was cold: "Do you know Fei Wan is alone at home? How can you let her stay alone? She's pregnant."
Jiang Huaixu was silent for a moment and said, "I'm too busy at work. I'll arrange a nanny to take care of her as soon as possible."
Chi Yizi snorted coldly: "You'd better keep your word. If anything happens to Wanwan, I won't let you go."
After saying that, he hung up the phone, looked in the direction of the courtyard, and made another call: "Help me contact the best nanny in Beijing, and finally from Haicheng."
