The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 361: Accident

Under the night sky.

The silver-white moonlight cast Ye Chenfeng’s distinctly contoured face into relief, a slight arc formed at the corners of his mouth. Ye Chenfeng shrugged his shoulders with some embarrassment and waved to Ning Yuting, saying, "We meet again."

After all, the last time Ye Chenfeng had confronted Ning Yuting in public, it was only because he had no choice but to protect his uncle’s happiness. So, no matter how thick-skinned Ye Chenfeng was, he still felt somewhat embarrassed upon seeing Ning Yuting again. However, what he hadn’t expected was that Qianqian was Ning Yuting’s daughter?

The information about the Xus from Wu State that Han Wei had gathered included the account of Ning Yuting being forced to marry Xu Zhanchi. That incident had caused quite a stir back then, so it wasn’t much of a secret to the public. What puzzled Ye Chenfeng was that Xu Zhanchi had died on a mission. Ning Yuting had been forced to marry a dead man, so theoretically, Ning Yuting shouldn’t have had a daughter, right?

However, these questions merely flashed through Ye Chenfeng’s mind and he didn’t dwell on them. He felt a faint sympathy for Ning Yuting. Even though he hadn’t witnessed the events of that year firsthand, he could imagine what it must have felt like for Ning Yuting to be pressured into marrying a dead man!

Ning Yuting held Qianqian in her arms. The moment she saw Ye Chenfeng, rage flared up within her. She couldn’t help but recall the previous incidents.

Holding Qianqian in her arms, it was not appropriate for Ning Yuting to settle scores with Ye Chenfeng that evening. After giving Ye Chenfeng a stern look, just as she was about to turn around and leave, Qianqian in her arms protested, writhing restlessly and saying, "Mommy, why aren’t we going home with Daddy? Daddy was so brave just now. If it weren’t for him, Qianqian would have been bullied by bad people."

After recounting the recent events to Ning Yuting, Qianqian looked at Ye Chenfeng with eyes full of surprise and doubt.

Seizing the opportunity, Qianqian wriggled out of Ning Yuting’s arms, trotted over to Ye Chenfeng, took his hand, and pulled him to stand before Ning Yuting. Then she said to Ye Chenfeng, "Daddy, can you come home with us? Qianqian wants to listen to your stories. From now on, Qianqian will also be a child with a daddy, and no one in kindergarten will tease Qianqian for being a fatherless wild child anymore."

Seeing the hopeful look in Qianqian’s eyes, Ye Chenfeng felt a twinge in his heart and couldn’t bear to reject the adorable little girl. He sighed inwardly, bent down to touch Qianqian’s little head, then scooped her into his arms and said, "Okay, Daddy will go home with you. If anyone dares to bully Qianqian at kindergarten again, Daddy will teach them a lesson for you."

"Yay! I knew Daddy was the best, I knew Daddy wouldn’t refuse Qianqian," Qianqian cheered joyfully in Ye Chenfeng’s arms, her face radiant with a naive and adorable smile.

"Wife, what are you standing there for? The three of us can go home and sleep now," said Ye Chenfeng teasingly to Ning Yuting, giving her a meaningful look, as if to say if you want to disappoint Qianqian, go ahead and turn against me right here and now.

As expected, after giving Ye Chenfeng a fierce glare, Ning Yuting dropped the matter and walked ahead on her own, with Ye Chenfeng following behind her. Ning Yuting’s car was parked not too far away in the parking lot.

Ning Yuting’s home was in a villa area in Capital City, a standalone small villa. Normally, Ning Yuting lived in the military district’s dormitory, with Qianqian being cared for by Ning Yuting’s sister, Ning Minyan. Only on Saturdays and Sundays would Ning Yuting come back to spend two days with Qianqian.

Ning Minyan also lived in this small villa, but it was clear that Ning Minyan wasn’t home when Ning Yuting brought Ye Chenfeng into the villa. Ning Minyan and Ye Chenfeng’s uncle, Ye Dongjian, were in the throes of love, typically returning home around eleven or twelve at night, sometimes even after midnight. It was evident that the relationship between Ning Minyan and Ye Dongjian was developing at a rapid pace.

"Daddy, Qianqian will take you to my room, and then Daddy has to tell stories to put Qianqian to sleep!" Qianqian pulled Ye Chenfeng’s hand and went straight upstairs.

Ning Yuting watched Qianqian’s jubilant figure from behind, feeling a mix of emotions. Helplessly shaking her head, she let the little girl have her way this time.

Ye Chenfeng told Qianqian many fairy tales. Qianqian lay quietly in Ye Chenfeng’s arms, her big eyes unwaveringly fixed on him. Finally, after the third story, Qianqian’s eyelids began to fight each other, and she slowly drifted off to sleep in Ye Chenfeng’s arms, occasionally mumbling unclear words in her sleep, "Qianqian has a daddy now, having a daddy is so nice."

Ning Yuting stood at the doorway of Qianqian’s room, pondering over something as she watched Qianqian fall asleep with a smile in Ye Chenfeng’s embrace. After a moment, she coughed softly and then whispered, "Come outside."

Ye Chenfeng carefully placed Qianqian onto the bed, and then cautiously covered her with the blanket. He knew women were often vindictive, so he guessed Ning Yuting was definitely about to settle scores with him now.

After Ye Chenfeng followed Ning Yuting to the living room on the first floor, Ning Yuting’s expression immediately turned stern, "Ye Chenfeng, I’ve told you that Ning Yuting won’t let you off easily. Should we settle our previous account now?"

Ning Yuting’s perception was still quite sharp. She could clearly feel Shen Feng evaluating her and she snapped, "Where are your damn eyes looking?"

"Isn’t that a rhetorical question! Besides, you are my wife, and Qianqian has recognized me as her dad. We’re a family from now on. It’s just me looking at you. It’s not like you’ll lose a piece of flesh," Ye Chenfeng said, demonstrating his thick-skinned nature.

"Ye Chenfeng, you... you’re shameless." Saying this, Ning Yuting could not hold back and charged towards Ye Chenfeng. Perhaps in her haste, she didn’t look at the ground; her step was tripped by the leg of a chair, and she fell toward the ground, her face about to make a solid contact with the floor.

Ye Chenfeng darted to Ning Yuting’s side, his right arm catching her falling body, naturally making contact with her.

After steadying Ning Yuting, he quickly let go of his hand and said, "This time it really wasn’t on purpose." frёeωebɳovel.com

"You should rest early! Staying up is bad for women’s skin, so I won’t bother you anymore."

Before Ning Yuting could erupt, Ye Chenfeng’s silhouette had already flashed out of the villa. He knew that if he stayed any longer, there was no telling what Ning Yuting might do. Sometimes it’s best to beat a hasty retreat when dealing with a woman since reason often falls on deaf ears.

After leaving Ning Yuting’s villa, Ye Chenfeng turned to glance in the direction of Ning Yuting’s villa, his mind once again filled with the image of the endearing little girl, Qianqian.
