Reincarnation: I Have Always Been Rich

1285 Meeting the Parents (1)

Recently, Chen Meng’er had been unable to sleep at night.

Every night, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.

Chen Meng’er’s actions frightened Yuwen Jing. Finally, when Chen Meng’er turned over again, unable to fall asleep, Yuwen Jing turned on the light and sat up.

“Jing, you’re not asleep yet.” Chen Meng’er looked at Yuwen Jing who was sitting up and asked in surprise.

“Do you think I can fall asleep with you tossing and turning in my arms?” Yuwen Jing fired back.

“I don’t think so.” Chen Meng’er also sat up.

“Meng’er, what’s wrong? You haven’t been sleeping well recently. Could it be that you’re pregnant?” Yuwen Jing recalled when Chen Meng’er was pregnant, she had been suffering from insomnia for a period of time. It was only after she entered her portable space that her sleep quality improved.

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Chen Meng’er gently smacked Yuwen Jing. She knew her own body. Moreover, she was on birth control, so it was impossible for her to be pregnant.

“Then why do you always have insomnia at night?” Yuwen Jing asked.

“Sigh, wasn’t it last week when Tuan Tuan secretly told me that Mao Mao has a girlfriend? I was very curious. I kept thinking, what kind of girl could actually capture Mao Mao’s heart? I was worried that Mao Mao’s girlfriend would not have a good character? Anyway, I was thinking about this all day long. Jing, do you think I’m entering menopause?”

“What nonsense are you thinking? How old are you? How can you have menopause?” Yuwen Jing said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “You want to know what kind of girlfriend Mao Mao has, right? You can ask him to bring his girlfriend back for dinner later. You can meet her yourself.”

Yuwen Jing didn’t know why Chen Meng’er was so conflicted about this.

“Why didn’t I think of that? Okay, I think that’s a good idea. I’ll tell Mao Mao tomorrow.” Chen Meng’er suddenly beamed with joy.

“Then can we go to sleep now?” Yuwen Jing yawned and asked.

“Yes.”

Early the next morning, Chen Meng’er originally picked up the phone to call her eldest son, but before dialing the number, she changed her mind and called her daughter.

When Liu Xiyi received the call from her mother, she was about to go out. “Mommy, why did you suddenly think of calling me?”

Her parents had always had a free-range policy towards the three of them. Usually, unless there was something important, they would not call them.

“Yes. There’s something I need your help with.”

“I knew it. Tell me, Mommy, what is it that you need my help with?”

“It’s not a big deal. I just want you to help me pass on a message to your brother. Ask him to bring his girlfriend home for dinner tomorrow.” After saying that, Chen Meng’er hung up.

“Hey, Mommy, don’t do this. You can’t do this.” Before Liu Xiyi could finish her sentence, her mother hung up. She stared at the phone and went crazy. “Ah, Mommy did this on purpose. It must be on purpose. Now he’ll know that I’m the one who told Mommy!”

However, she didn’t dare disobey her mother’s words.

After all, her mother was the queen of their household. Who dared challenge her authority? That was courting death.
