Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 569 - 562: Her Hatred (Part 6)

"Xiao Xi is still so small? How can he be separated from his mother?"

Bai Yiran was forced to be pressed close against Leng Yichen, feeling the heat of the man’s body even through the clothes.

Their faces were very close, and Leng Yichen’s breath brushed Bai Yiran’s face, creating a moment of tense atmosphere.

However, Bai Yiran had made up her mind; she was determined to return to work.

"Sister Liu usually takes care of Xiao Xi, and her ability to look after the child is even better than mine. Isn’t that reassuring enough for you?" Bai Yiran looked at Leng Yichen and continued, "As for breastfeeding, the company accommodates nursing mothers, giving two hours to go home for feeding at noon and allowing us to leave work an hour and a half earlier than usual. It definitely won’t delay feeding Xiao Xi."

Leng Yichen raised an eyebrow, moving his face even closer to Bai Yiran.

"Moreover, I’ll prepare milk in advance for Sister Liu, just in case. So, Xiao Xi won’t have any problems at all!"

Bai Yiran, being Xiao Xi’s biological mother, wouldn’t make such a decision without thorough consideration.

She looked at Leng Yichen, hoping to see some sign of relent.

Leng Yichen’s breathing grew heavier, and in a deep voice, he said, "Sophistry!"

As his voice dropped, he dominantly grasped Bai Yiran’s chin, kissing her with a punitive intent.

Their tongues entangled, and Bai Yiran passively endured Leng Yichen’s domineering kiss, her breathing gradually becoming chaotic.

However, Bai Yiran wasn’t worried that Leng Yichen would take it further at this time. After all, her grandmother had just passed away, and no one was in the mood for that. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Thus, Leng Yichen was entirely punishing her in this manner.

After the kiss, Bai Yiran’s lips were somewhat swollen, and she adjusted her breathing, placing her small hands against Leng Yichen’s chest.

"I asked Qiao Jie, and he said work might help adjust my mood, and staying at home all the time could easily lead me back into depression."

Finally, Bai Yiran gave a reason Leng Yichen couldn’t refute.

At her grandmother’s funeral, the moment Bai Yiran looked up, her eyes carried such a sinister gaze, and then she talked to him as if she remembered nothing.

In such a short time, the contrast was stark, and that incident stayed in Leng Yichen’s mind.

He originally intended to take Bai Yiran to see Qiao Jie in the coming days, as he was genuinely worried that the successive blows from Cheng Shishi and her grandmother’s deaths might relapse Bai Yiran’s illness.

Unexpectedly, today Bai Yiran took the initiative to bring up Qiao Jie’s suggestion.

"So, I want to go back to work. At least work can distract me and prevent me from overthinking."

Leng Yichen silently looked at Bai Yiran, unable to say words of refusal anymore.

"If you want to work, you can go to your hotel or directly come to Huamei International. I will arrange a good position for you; there’s no need to go back to Yao Zhiqing’s place."

Being too close to Wu Chengzu worried Leng Yichen that things might spiral out of his control.

However, he couldn’t outright say Wu Chengzu might be Nawa, as he didn’t want to drag Bai Yiran into it.

"I know nothing about hotel management; going there would just cause trouble. As for Huamei International, forget it. Aren’t you afraid your employees will talk behind your back about giving your wife special treatment?" Bai Yiran wrapped her arms around Leng Yichen, "I still want to go back to Yao Zhiqing’s place. I know my abilities and position, and working there really gives me a sense of achievement."

Having said this much, if Leng Yichen continued to refuse, it would lead to an argument, which he didn’t want. He didn’t want Bai Yiran to be unhappy, so he had no choice but to agree.

However, if he knew that Bai Yiran’s real reason for wanting to return to work was because of Wu Chengzu, he would certainly regret today’s decision. In fact, he did regret it in the end.
