My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 29: Is There a Ghost in Your Heart?_1

She had no intentions of finding a husband. First, because she didn’t have the time or the means. Second, because she didn’t want to.

"Do you genuinely believe it’s okay for your two children not to have a father? Even though they don’t show it in front of you, wanting a father, it’s because they’re understanding of your hardship. But it doesn’t mean they don’t want a dad. Any child would hope for a complete family, for complete parental love."

Ye Lu was silent. She naturally knew that sometimes she also felt as though she owed her two children.

"I’ll consider it seriously."

Arriving at the hospital, with heavy heart she went to Shang Jingchen’s ward.

As expected, both Shang Jingchen and Yangxiu were there, with one having a gloomy face and the other grinning.

Oh dear, it seems ’Golden King Turtle’ is in a bad mood. Probably because Yangxiu couldn’t satisfy him just now, leaving him frustrated! Anyway, the ’Golden King Turtle’ has a bloody head, isn’t he afraid that getting too worked up could make it crack open again?

She murmured in her heart and walked in slowly.

"Sister Xiao Lu, you’re finally here. I should leave now." Yangxiu stood up, smiling.

"You’re leaving so soon?"

No, when he leaves, Shang Jingchen’s temper will have nowhere to burst, and he’ll definitely bother her again.

"You can’t bear to part with me? Unfortunately, someone has long been wanting me to get lost." Yangxiu glanced sideways at Shang Jingchen and chuckled mischievously.

Shang Jingchen darkened his face: "Good that you know. Scram, no need to see you off!"

Ye Lu looked sympathetically at Yangxiu.

Yangxiu clutched his chest: "Look, my heart is broken. Regardless of us having shared a bed, this man is cold-hearted. Little Sister Xiao Lu is so much better. Right, give me your phone number so that we can chat regularly."

Ye Lu didn’t mind and took out her phone.

Yangxiu recited his number.

Ye Lu typed it in, then saved it under ’Gay Sheep’.

"Hey, hey, Gay Sheep? Little Sister Xiao, how could you arbitrarily give people nicknames, especially ones that involve animals?" Yangxiu gawped. He was straight. Straight, okay? She really shouldn’t have misunderstood.

"Is there a problem? It’s easier to remember this way. When I see this number, I know it’s you."

"Then let me see what name you saved for Jingchen?"

Before Ye Lu could react, he snatched her phone.

She panicked instantly. If Shang Jingchen found out about the nickname she’d given him, wouldn’t he kill her?

"Give it back, I don’t have his number saved." Ye Lu desperately tried to snatch her phone back.

Yangxiu laughed maliciously: "Your panic only proves that you have a guilty conscience. Now I’m even more eager to see. Jingchen, aren’t you curious? Ha, I found it. It’s this one, hahaha... it’s definitely this one."

Yangxiu stared at the name on the screen and howled with laughter.

"Brilliant! It fits Jingchen’s image perfectly. Absolutely brilliant!"

Shang Jingchen suddenly had an ominous feeling: "What name?"

"I won’t say. You should see it yourself. The nickname is so delightful that I have to spread it!" Yangxiu tossed the phone to him, then guffawed and left the ward.

Ye Lu panicked and lunged forward to snatch the phone back.

Shang Jingchen was holding the phone firmly. Seeing her trying to snatch it, he glared at her: "Let go."

"No, unless you promise not to get angry." Ye Lu looked pitiful.

"Huh, you dare to bargain with me? Try not to let go."

His threatening gaze was as sharp as flying daggers. Half-heartedly, Ye Lu let go, then retreated as far away as she could.

Shang Jingchen’s puzzled gaze fell onto the screen of his mobile. Three big characters ’Golden King Turtle’ jumped out at him and his face immediately turned cold.

"Ye Lu..."

His rage roared out like a lion.

"Explain this to me, or I won’t let you off!"

Ye Lu retreated to the farthest corner, innocently biting her lip: "Didn’t you say you’re a golden turtle? ’King Turtle’ is the general term for turtles, so a golden turtle is a ’Golden King Turtle’, right? I didn’t say anything wrong, did I?"

Except, calling someone a ’Golden Turtle’ is a compliment, while ’King Turtle’ is an insult.
