Bringing the Little Crown Prince on a Parenting Reality Show — I'm Cleared of All Scandals!-Chapter 157: Nightmare

"Ah... this..."

How did the topic shift from her age to me bringing someone home? "If I bring someone home, it’s definitely for marriage. Given the current situation, I won’t be getting married anytime soon."

"Alright then."

Housekeeper Liu seemed a bit disappointed.

He really wanted to see Xiao Ran’s partner. This child had been under his watch since she was young, spoiled beyond measure, and after losing her parents, she became a pitiful soul, which pained him deeply.

Now she’s in a relationship.

He just hoped she would be happy.

Mu Ran chatted with Housekeeper Liu for quite a while, and Feng Qikuo returned from the airport, seeing Mu Ran, she opened her arms to hug her.

A disruption appeared.

Mu Dixin stepped between them, eyeing Mu Ran cautiously: "You’re acting like there’s no one around..."

"Get out!" Mu Ran pushed her aside and hugged her sister-in-law, "Why are you working so hard flying everywhere while pregnant?"

"It’s alright, just minor issues."

Feng Qikuo’s career was booming right now, she was full of drive.

"The baby isn’t troubling you, right?" Mu Ran released her, looking at her flat belly, "I really can’t see anything."

"It would be strange if you could!" Mu Dixin snorted coldly, this girl got bolder by the day, even daring to push him: "Eat."

Mu Ran pouted and went to eat.

A lavish dinner, Mu Ran ate the most, Housekeeper Liu was happy to see it, wishing she would stay home and eat a lot every day.

After she finished eating, Housekeeper Liu made tea for her, "Xiao Ran, your filming will take months, will you be home for New Year?"

"Probably?" Mu Ran poured him a cup of tea too, "Don’t worry, I’m grown up, I can take care of myself."

"If your brother says he can take care of himself, I’d believe it. You are the least able to take care of yourself." Housekeeper Liu really disliked Mu Ran eating all kinds of junk food and staying up late, but he couldn’t say much, fearing she would distance herself further and dislike coming home, "You have a child with you, why not bring him here, Xiao Jin is a good kid and won’t cause trouble."

Uncle Liu dared to say that.

Because he also owned a villa here.

Originally he didn’t have one, it was later gifted by Mu Dixin, as he raised the siblings, naturally he should be cared for in old age.

In the siblings’ hearts, Uncle Liu was no different from the closest family.

But Mu Ran still politely declined Uncle Liu’s invitation, "Xiao Jin is well adapted where we are, no need to bring him back." 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Alright then."

Housekeeper Liu seemed a bit disappointed.

Feng Qikuo then greeted Mu Ran and went upstairs with Mu Dixin.

Opening the room, vibrant pink lychees appeared before Feng Qikuo, "Did you... send me flowers?"

"Yes, today’s our anniversary," Mu Dixin said.

"Huh? Didn’t we agree just to celebrate our wedding anniversary and each other’s birthdays?"

They had been together for many years, with too many anniversaries; they were usually quite busy, celebrating every holiday would take too much time.

They agreed only the wedding anniversary and each other’s birthdays mattered.

Including Qixi and the day they got together.

"I suddenly remembered today and wanted to give you flowers." Mu Dixin handed them to her.

Feng Qikuo happily took them, her eyes sparkling, her smile sweet.

On the pink lychees was a small box, Feng Qikuo opened it, sure enough, it was a necklace.

The necklace emphasized one word—expensive!

Mu Dixin saw she wasn’t very surprised, cautiously asked, "Do you like it?"

"I love it!" Feng Qikuo smiled, handed the necklace to him, "Put it on me."

"Okay." Mu Dixin put it around her neck, seeing her slender neck adorned with a diamond necklace gleamed with crystal clarity brought satisfaction, "Beautiful."

Feng Qikuo went to the dressing room to check in the mirror.

Indeed beautiful.

The mirror showed her neck, through it she could see the man’s satisfied and happy expression, Feng Qikuo put down the mirror, turned to hug him, "Thank you."

Making her believe in love.

"I should." Mu Dixin wrapped his arms around her waist, "Once the baby is born, your favorite person must be me."

"So... are you bribing me in advance?" Feng Qikuo raised her head to look at him, her eyes full of laughter.

Mu Dixin raised an eyebrow, nodded.

"Yes, bribing you, does it work?"

"Just barely, when the baby is born, I might easily love the child more, after all, it’s my bloodline."

Feng Qikuo heard many ladies with kids say before having them loving oneself was most important, after having them, the child becomes everything.

She was a bit afraid of such a state.

Wondering if it might affect their relationship.

Mu Dixin noticed her fear, held her a bit tighter: "Then I’ll try to make you fall for me again."

Feng Qikuo’s eyes gradually brightened, her smile broadened, "Okay."

Later, Feng Qikuo stored the pink lychees carefully, taking a photo to record it, saving it to a private account shared only with Mu Dixin.

They both disliked posting on WeChat Moments.

But their WeChat with only one friend had content daily, mostly about eating things apart from each other, rarely gifts like today.

Though, Feng Qikuo felt quite satisfied flipping through.

Mu Dixin saw her post on Moments and liked it, then recalled the Feng Family’s recent affairs.

The Feng Family’s business was declining fast, reaching the point of sending daughters for glory, Mu Dixin hesitated a moment, remembering the Feng Family once tried sending Feng Qikuo out for marriage alliance, ultimately chose not to tell Feng Qikuo.

If she wanted to know about the Feng Family’s situation.

She would also be aware of her siblings’ circumstances.

Thus Mu Dixin turned off the lights to sleep.

Feng Qikuo, thinking of the day’s beauty, soon fell asleep, but had a nightmare.

Her siblings wanted to kill her!

"Why do you keep living in luxury while we’re crushed underfoot?"

"Are you really our sister?"

"You ruined our lives, do you know that?!"

With each reproach, they stabbed her body with knives, Feng Qikuo tried to dodge, but behind her were hard stone walls, no escape.

Feng Qikuo woke in the middle of the night, Mu Dixin waking as well, turned on the lights, seeing her drenched in cold sweat, prepared to call the family doctor.

"No need, don’t call, I just had a nightmare?"

Mu Dixin didn’t listen.

Insisted on calling!

Mu Ran playing games, legs propped on the balcony railing, suddenly saw the house lights fully on, went out confused, seeing the family doctor asked, "Where are you going, what happened?"

"Miss Mu, Madame woke from a nightmare, covered in cold sweat, I’m going to check on her."

"I’ll go with you."

Mu Ran put down her phone and went to her brother and sister-in-law’s room.
