Chapter 432: Chapter 432: Consummating the Marriage
“Alright, I’ll leave it to you then!” Su Zixi readily agreed, turning around to clatter downstairs to find Uncle Li.
Speaking of which, she and Jingyao hadn’t officially dated yet, had they? This would be their first date, right? She had to prepare well.
After hearing Su Zixi’s plan, Uncle Li certainly wouldn’t dampen her enthusiasm. He immediately smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll make the arrangements. Do you need me to choose a restaurant for you?”
“No need. Dr. Huo recommended a restaurant called Jeff’s,” Su Zixi thought for a moment, “It seems to be a Western restaurant.”
“That’s right, it’s the most popular Western restaurant in Yangdong City this year, and young master Huo is always extremely well-informed in this regard.” Uncle Li chuckled, “I’ll get right on it.”
“Great, I’ll go put on some makeup and change my clothes!” Su Zixi turned and clattered back upstairs.
Uncle Li watched Su Zixi’s retreating figure, his face showing a reflective smile.
Meanwhile, at the Ning Family residence.
When Ning Yichen walked into the living room, he was surprised to find his mother there, and moreover, sitting next to Su Lianxi.
A slight frown formed between his brows.
“Yichen, you’re here!” Mrs. Ning saw him and immediately smiled and waved him over.
Ning Yichen nodded at his mother, his gaze trailing over Su Lianxi seated on the sofa, showing a hint of annoyance and confusion.
Ever since Su Lianxi’s lies had been exposed, his mother had been cold towards her. In fact, she’d been quite dissatisfied with Su Lianxi’s background even before that, and later hadn’t given Su Lianxi a second glance.
But now, the two of them were sitting together.
He sensed something unusual.
“Come over here.” Mrs. Ning, seeing him stand still, stood up, walked to him with a smile, took his arm, and pulled him down to sit on the sofa next to her.
That was fine, but the key point was, right next to him was Su Lianxi!
Ning Yichen frowned unhappily, “Mom, what’s going on?”
Mrs. Ning sat across from them and scolded him with a glance, “Why don’t you greet your wife?”
The doubt in Ning Yichen’s eyes deepened as he reflexively looked toward Su Lianxi next to him.
Su Lianxi flashed a seductive smile, “Yichen.”
Ning Yichen narrowed his eyes studying her and quickly noticed she was carefully made up.
Since the wedding, Su Lianxi had mostly appeared pale and pitiable, but today she seemed to have transformed.
Something must have happened.
Ning Yichen’s gaze grew colder, he averted his eyes indifferently and turned to Mrs. Ning, “Mom, you called me over for something?”
Mrs. Ning smiled, “Yichen, you and Lianxi have been married for a while now, and it seems you haven’t consummated the marriage yet? This won’t do. If you don’t touch her, how am I supposed to have grandchildren?”
Ning Yichen looked at her in disbelief, “Mom, what are you talking about?”
“I’m saying, Lianxi is your wife!” Mrs. Ning’s tone hardened, “Since you’ve married her, you should treat her well! How can you leave her to sleep alone?”
Ning Yichen’s eyes twitched fiercely, and he turned to grasp Su Lianxi’s chin tightly, his voice icy, “What have you done again?”
Caught off guard, Su Lianxi screamed in terror!
Mrs. Ning was also startled and quickly went to pull Ning Yichen away, “As a man, how can you be so violent! … Lianxi, go to your room and wait for a while, I need to have a word with him!”
Massaging her painfully sore chin, Su Lianxi murmured a low yes.
