the seventh bride

Chapter 104
And Nangong Chen's sudden change of words probably came from the realization that she really shouldn't know more about the Nangong family.

The two walked towards the main house together, Bai Muqing followed behind him, watching his steps were firm and steady, just like his character.

She unconsciously followed in his footsteps, following in his footsteps like the heroine in a TV drama.Imagining the romantic scene in the TV series, since this feeling is so novel and beautiful.

She even imagined that he who was walking in front suddenly stopped, and she who was walking behind suddenly bumped into him, sparks of love flew everywhere, just like the scenes of TV dramas.

However, the reality is always cruel...

When she stepped up and found that there was actually a sparkling swimming pool in front of her, it was too late to stop.Amidst the screams, her body leaned forward.

She closed her eyes in a panic, and just when she thought she would fall into the water with a splash like last time, Nan Gongchen at the side took her hand in time to catch her back.

She fell just a little short of it, so thrilling!
Seeing her pale face, Nangong Chen couldn't help teasing: "If I take you to the volcano, are you planning to just dive in like this?"

Bai Muqing regained consciousness a little bit, all the romantic elements in her heart were disillusioned at this moment, it was completely different from what she played in the TV series!

"You did it on purpose?" Bai Muqing stared at him speechlessly.

"Why did you follow my steps?" Nan Gongchen asked without answering.

"Because I want to learn your domineering, starting from the pace."

"Idiot, domineering is innate, not for others to learn." Nan Gongchen scratched her nose with his hand, and glanced down at her abdomen: "You are so stupid, I really feel sorry for you!" My son is worried."

"It is said that a baby's intelligence is generally inherited from his father."

"It's best like this." Nan Gongchen let go of her, turned around and continued walking.

Seeing the narrow expression on his face, Bai Muqing realized her slip of the tongue, and quickly chased after him: "No, what I mean is that the baby will not be stupid no matter if he looks like me or you..."

What was she talking about just now, didn't she admit that she was stupid, and at the same time praised him for being smart?Even if she thought he was smart, she couldn't admit it to his face.

Nangong Chen quickened his pace as if he didn't hear it.

When the two returned to the main house together, everyone was having breakfast.

Seeing the two coming back from the house together, Shen Ke stopped drinking milk and looked at them in surprise: "Hey, cousin, you got up so early? You even fished out your cousin."

Pu Lianyao at the side was also looking at the two of them, and said with a smile: "My cousin is pregnant, of course my cousin feels distressed."

The old lady coughed lightly as a warning.

How could the whole house know about something that hurt her old man's dignity so much?

Shen Ke and Pu Lianyao shut their mouths wisely, not daring to speak casually again.

Bai Muqing greeted the old lady politely, she didn't know how to advance or retreat for a while, but fortunately Nan Gongchen beside her said, "Grandma, let's go up and freshen up first."

After speaking, she put her hand on Bai Muqing's shoulder, and Bai Muqing hurriedly walked upstairs with him.

After returning to the room to freshen up and change into a set of clean clothes, when Bai Muqing returned downstairs, everyone was already busy with their own activities.

There were only Nangong Chen and Bai Muqing at the dining table. Bai Muqing walked to Nangong Chen and sat down, watching him flipping through the newspaper at hand while eating breakfast.

She lowered her head and began to eat the breakfast in the bowl.

The dining room was quiet, only the sound of plates clashing. Once the silence settled down, Bai Muqing began to think wildly, and the thing she thought about most was the inexplicable nightmare last night.

She had just dreamed that Nangong Chen was killed by her, and he fell ill, which is really strange.

"I have to go to Yancheng again the day after tomorrow, do you want to go together?" Nan Gongchen's voice suddenly sounded in the silence.

Bai Muqing's hand holding the chopsticks paused, Yancheng?

Although she liked that place very much and wanted to go there again, but if it was with Nangong Chen...

She took a deep breath, and answered the irrelevant question: "I had a dream last night, dreaming that I killed you with my own hands."

Nangong Chen didn't expect her to say such words, he looked up at her in surprise, and said, "What do you mean? What does this have to do with going to Yancheng together?"

Bai Muqing also raised her eyes and looked back at him: "I'm worried that I will kill you on impulse."

"What was the motive for killing me?"

"I don't know, I just want to kill you."

Nangong Chen suddenly smiled: "Don't worry, you can't kill me."

"Are you that confident?"

"of course."

Bai Muqing bit her lips: "Okay, I'll go with you."

*****
Bai Muqing didn't know what kind of psychology she had, she actually went to Yancheng with Nangong Chen on a business trip, she didn't even know why Nangong Chen went to Yancheng.

It wasn't until boarding the plane and meeting Lin Annan in the first class cabin that Bai Muqing realized that Nangong Chen's trip to Yancheng might not be for the company's business.

The two looked at each other, Bai Muqing quickly looked away, pretending not to notice him.

Lin Annan's eyes moved away from her slightly protruding belly, and fell on Nan Gongchen's face, and greeted them politely: "Cousin, cousin, what a coincidence."

"It's really clever." Nangong Chen returned him with a slight smile.

"Cousin is so nice, he's going to be a father soon."

"Your marriage with the second miss of the Bai family must come to an end, and you will be a father soon."

Lin Annan smiled, and didn't say anything, let alone denying his relationship with Bai Yingan.

He has never let the outside world know that he and Bai Yingan have broken off the engagement, because he knows that one day he will reconcile with Bai Muqing, and when Bai Yingan's mother and daughter's plan is successful, it will be the time for him to marry Bai Muqing.

At this time, Bai Muqing's swollen abdomen was not to mention how conspicuous it was to him.

After Bai Muqing followed Nangong Chen back to her seat and sat down, she immediately asked, "Why does everyone in the first-class cabin seem to know you? They even greeted you."

"They're all in the same circle, how could they not know each other?"

"What do you mean? Don't you go on a business trip this time because of company affairs?"

"The company is only one aspect. The most important thing is to participate in the real estate development seminar held by the province in Yancheng."

The meeting was presided over by a senior official, and he was called upon to attend. He used to say that he was sick and refused to attend, but now the world knows that his illness was just a rumor.Naturally, he can no longer continue to refuse to attend events, especially these large ones.

He still wants to give the face of the high-ranking official.

"Then Lin Annan also attended this seminar?" Bai Muqing asked.

If she had known this, she would not have come.

Nangong Chen seemed to understand her thoughts, and looked at her sideways: "What? When you see him, you start to feel confused?"

"No." Bai Muqing turned her face away and stopped talking.

*****
When getting off the plane, Lin Annan and Nangong Chen walked side by side to the gate of the airport building. Nangong Chen deliberately raised his arms to wrap Bai Muqing's shoulders, showing an extremely affectionate look.

Bai Muqing twisted her shoulders uncomfortably, but she didn't break free from his embrace.Of course she knew that Nangong Chen's move was deliberately done for Lin Annan to confuse him.

If she breaks away from Nangong Chen now, it will definitely make Nangong Chen lose face.

But don't break away from him... Bai Muqing glanced at Lin Annan secretly, from her angle, she could clearly see the sneer on his lips.

She thought he must be mocking her for being unprincipled and self-respecting, knowing that Nan Gongchen was the murderer who killed her, but still walking so close to him and keeping his child.

Lin Annan had said before that he wanted to make her realize that it was wrong to do so, but not only did she not realize this, she even came to Yancheng on a business trip with Nangong Chen.

Regarding this point, let alone Lin Annan, even she despises herself!
Bai Muqing came to Yancheng this time, not just like the last time, just wanting to come back and have a look around, to feel the taste of hometown.She came here mainly to see grandma, to go to her grave to repent in person, and to confess her series of unfilial behaviors, even if she could not get forgiveness from grandma.

She also wanted to find her uncle to find out what was going on.

When he walked out of the airport building, Lin Annan suddenly turned his face and asked, "Where do you live, cousin and sister-in-law? Do you want me to give you a lift?"

"I live in Hewan, but I have a driver to pick me up, thank you." After Nangong Chen finished speaking, he saw the group's driver slowly driving over.

The driver quickly got out of the car and put the suitcases of the two into the trunk, while Nangong Chen opened the rear door, helped Bai Muqing up, and then got into the car by the door on the other side.

Before getting into the car, he did not forget to gracefully smile at Lin Annan, his eyes clearly showed the attitude of a successful person.

But Bai Muqing didn't even open the car window, let alone look at Lin Annan more.

Watching their car slowly leave the gate of the airport building, the smile on the corner of Lin Annan's lips gradually turned into sarcasm. He didn't think that Nan Gongchen would laugh till the end in such a victorious posture.

****
After the two returned to the villa hotel together, they took a short break and went to the nearby hotel for dinner. After the meal, Nangong Chen asked Bai Muqing if he wanted to go back to his room to rest or go out for a stroll.

Bai Muqing thought for a while: "Let's go back and rest, and go shopping after the rest."

Nangong Chen nodded and got up to pay the bill.

Going up to the second floor through the hall on the first floor of the villa, Bai Muqing glanced at the doors above, raised her head and asked Nangong Chen: "Which room do you want to live in?"

"The one near the sea." Nan Gongchen pointed to the bedroom on the left with his chin, then pushed the door and stepped in.

Turning around, she realized that Bai Muqing was still evaluating the other bedrooms, her brows sank slightly: "This bedroom is enough for two people to sleep, what are you looking for?"

"I... I'm afraid I'll disturb you." Bai Muqing made an excuse casually.
