Chapter 162 - Untitled

In the evening, Third Young Master Ye brought Cheng Anya and Ning Ning back to his mansion in City A.

When they were at the seaside mansion, Third Young Master Ye forcefully decided that Cheng Anya should stay at his place until her leg fully recovered. Cheng Anya was initially unwilling, and it was not prim and proper for her to stay at his home amidst the rumors.

However, Third Young Master Ye seemed to have won over Ning Ning. This left Cheng Anya without her meals.

Besides, her leg inconvenienced her. Without a young kid like Ning Ning at home, it would make things inconvenient for her. To avoid making things difficult, Cheng Anya stayed at Ye Chen’s home.

It was already eight in the evening when they reached home!

“It is very beautiful!” Cheng Anya exclaimed as she got out of the car. She did not blame Ning Ning for being mesmerized with the mansion as it was indeed gorgeous. Third Young Master Ye definitely had a penchant for luxury.

“I didn’t lie to you!” Ning Ning blinked and smiled. He ran to open the door as Ye Chen carried Cheng Anya in!

Not too far away from the mansion, Yun Ruoxi witnessed the scene. Her eyes reddened as she watched enviously. Ye Chen was indeed with both the mother and son. He definitely… did not want her anymore!

As Yun Ruoxi mourned, she smashed her hands against the steering wheel and bawled.

She saw how Third Young Master Ye took such good care of Cheng Anya and how that child had such a bright smile on his face. Their harmonious family was an incredible eyesore to Yun Ruoxi.

Cheng Anya was able to enjoy Ye Chen’s tender loving care without reservation, but she could only hide in the corner and secretly cry.

This was unfair. It was too unfair!

Yun Ruoxi was brimming with hatred. She had accompanied Ye Chen for six years and given him her most beautiful years, her most sincere care. She was unwilling to accept this outcome.

She must marry Ye Chen!

To be his girlfriend for the past six years, yet endure his flirtatiousness, his second nature as a Casanova… Why had she given in to him?

How could she reasonably give up after all these years?

Even if she could not win his heart, she wanted his presence!

Yun Ruoxi suddenly raised her head and looked into the mansion filled with warmth with a terrifying face. A thought of hateful madness came into her mind.

She would absolutely not leave this hanging!

As the woman dried her tears, she floored the accelerator and left!

In the mansion, Ye Chen and Ning Ning packed their respective items while Cheng Anya, the idlest one, sat on the sofa and chatted on the telephone with Li Yun. At Third Young Master Ye’s request, she turned her phone off for the past two days, only to receive many missed calls from Li Yun and Liu Xiaotian.

She first called Liu Xiaotian and learned that Old Master Ye, unable to contact Ye Chen, had contacted his secretaries instead. From Liu Xiaotian’s anxious voice, Old Master Ye had definitely scared her.

Cheng Anya only told her that Ye Chen had returned home and nothing else. She then ended the call and called Li Yun.

“Anya, did you and Ning Ning appear in the papers?” Her BFF directly asked her.

“If I say no…”

“F***! I can even recognize you from your silhouette! Let alone baby Ning Ning!” Li Yun quickly interrupted Cheng Anya before she could complete her sentence.

“Then, why did you ask?” Cheng Anya replied impolitely.

Li Yun was shocked and started screaming how romantic it was. As Cheng Anya felt there was nothing romantic about it, she rolled her eyes.

“Hey, are you going to marry Third Young Master Ye?” Li Yun asked in a gossiping way. “What a bad friend you are to not directly tell me who baby Ning Ning’s father is! If Ning Ning did not ask me for help, I would have been kept in the dark!”

“I have yet to settle a score with you, so please do not raise that issue. Besides, Ning Ning and you already know. How could I tell you if I did not know?” Cheng Anya whispered after Ye Chen and Ning Ning had left.

“You are really going to marry Third Young Master Ye?” Li Yun asked as she laughed heartily.

“It hasn’t even begun!” Cheng Anya replied plainly. She had mixed feelings as she could not bother about anything during the vacation but she had to face them when she returned! She did not know how Third Young Master Ye would handle his issue with Yun Ruoxi.

One party was unwilling to get married, while the other wanted to keep up the entanglement. With both families’ magnates that had an image to protect, things were looking incredible.

“How could it be? Both of you have Ning Ning!” Li Yun replied in surprise. “He does not want to marry you?”

“F***!” Cheng Anya swore. “Do I look like I care enough about him?”

“Yes, you do!” Li Yun cut to the chase. “You are a lecherous and greedy wretch. Since Third Young Master Ye has the looks and is wealthy, who would believe you if you say you couldn’t care less about him? If you do not care about him, give him to me. I could use more of him.”

“…You definitely understand me!” Cheng Anya replied.

It was strange that Miss Cheng sounded neither happy nor sad.

“Let’s meet whenever you are free! Got to catch up with you!” Li Yun insisted in a gossiping manner.

“You are sure chivalrous enough to not visit me during my two weeks in the hospital and have the gall to ask me for gossip now. No way!” Cheng Anya laughed as she scolded her.

“Hey, please go easy on me, man. I just returned from France yesterday. God knows why you met with an accident when I was on vacation in France. Thank goodness I remembered to get you a bottle of perfume.” Li Yun defended herself softly.

Cheng Anya gave a satisfied snort. “I’ll call you whenever you are free then. I am extremely free these few days!”

“Okay! My family is back, and it’s time for me to sleep. Goodbye!” She hung up in style and Cheng Anya was stupefied at her forthrightness.

What about marrying Third Young Master Ye?

Cheng Anya pondered the idea and was slightly at a loss. She resisted the idea at the start, but she was now… confused!

She did not know what to do!

Was he treating her that well because of Ning Ning?

Did he allow them into his life because he wanted a home? That should have been the case?

As Cheng Anya recalled the time spent at the seaside mansion, she remembered Third Young Master Ye mentioning he wanted to enjoy the feeling of having a family.

His words made her slightly upset.

After spending two days together, they seemed like a family. Seeing Ning Ning happy made her satisfied.

But Cheng Anya knew this was all a charade!

She and Ye Chen were able to play off each other and reserve their thorns in front of Ning Ning. Although they had a whole lot of time together, she consistently reminded herself that such happiness was not to last.

Like performers on a stage, they would not perform on the stage for their whole lives.

The show must end.

If the actors fell in love with the stage, what was next?

She could not wrap her head around Ye Chen’s thoughts, so she had to control herself lest she fell for this illusion.

She did not want to end up alone whilst those around her left without any baggage.

That would be tragic.

The doorbell rang and jolted Cheng Anya who was deep in thought.

Ye Chen went to open the door. “What are you doing here?” Ye Chen frowned.
