Chapter 195: Breaking News
Claude, who had just entered, looked at Mia, who had angrily walked out, with a puzzled look on her face, and looked back at Asher, who was sitting on the hospital bed, laughing loudly, and walked over to Asher with his hands spread out.
“What’s this, a big smile?”
“Haha, nothing, what’s wrong with you?”
“You say that, you can’t come if there’s nothing wrong, like I’m not welcome.” Claude stood upright by Asher’s hospital bed with his hands in his trouser pockets and an unhappy look on his face.
“Pretty much, what is it?”
Asher obviously didn’t buy Claude’s story and pissed Claude off big time.
“Hey, it’s good news to tell you, but you have this attitude …”
“Say what you have to say, don’t be a mother-in-law.”
“Can’t stand you, well, I’ll tell you what. Nangong asked and Mia have cleared out the directors of Centurion Group China, and things have calmed down, and the strike at the factory is over.”
Asher’s mouth turned up and he smiled, “I haven’t doubted Nangong’s ability to get things done, and as for Mia, as long as she’s okay.”
Claude slapped his palm on his forehead in chagrin and said, “I knew you were a flat as hell, but I’ve brought another piece of news with a bombshell, want to hear it?”Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Whatever.”
Claude, who had just gotten a little excited, was helplessly knocked back down to the bottom again.
“Hey, I don’t know how Mia made you laugh. Forget it, I’ll be nice and tell you, listen up ah, Nangong asked and Wang Yuxin are getting engaged!”
“Oh? Yeah, great.”
If we had only heard Asher’s words, then everyone would have assumed that Asher’s face was already browbeaten with surprise.
Nice. That’s what Claude thought.
So when a smug Claude looked over at the still-flat-faced Asher, the frustration in his heart knocked him to the bottom.
“Hey, that’s still boring, ignore you, but I have a wedding drink to rub together.” Claude dropped the millennial expressionless emperor, turned around and left the ward.
Three days later, Asher goes to Nangong Man and Wang Yuxin’s engagement ceremony, despite the doctor’s objections and Mia’s obstruction, and is forced to go through the hospital discharge procedure.
The engagement ceremony did not have many people present, because Wang Yuxin does not like to show off, and Nangong ask is also a person who does not like to make a fuss, the two people decided to hold a simple engagement party at Nangong’s villa, the only people present were Wang Yuxin’s parents, relatives and Nangong ask a few close friends.
“Xin Xin!”
Mia entered the door and saw Wang Yuxin who was holding Nangong asked with a sweet smile, and called out from far away across the crowd.
Asher doted on the small woman beside him and said gently, “Just greeting someone’s protagonist like that, aren’t you afraid that Nangong will rise to the occasion?”
Mia smiled sweetly and spat her little tongue mischievously.
“Mia , you’re here!”
The undisguised happy emotion on Wang Yuxin’s face made Mia’s heart warm, this little woman had finally made it to this point, she must be overwhelmed with happiness.
“Mmmmmm, isn’t it, I’m overjoyed to hear that you and Nangong are getting engaged, I’ve wanted to come over for a long time”, Mia grabbed Wang Yuxin’s hands and jumped up with excitement.
“Ahem, you can’t move so much”, Asher gave Mia a doting look and took her by the shoulders to force her to settle down.
Mia spat out her tongue mischievously and assisted Wang Yuxin, then walked into the living room.
“Oh, congratulations oh, a lover will finally be married”, after Mia and Wang Yuxin walked into the living room talking and laughing, Mia kept pulling Wang Yuxin towards Nangong Man’s direction, now Nangong Man and Wang Yuxin both looked helplessly at Mia who sighed with a gloating face.
“Enough about us, how’s your health, I heard Asher say you’re about to be a mom.”
Nangong asked straight to the point, a caring smile spreading across his face. Such a smile had nothing to do with the wind or the moon, but was only genuine.
“Oh, it looks like you like children, if you like it, hurry up and get married, so Xin Xin can give you a whole bunch of babies!”
“Mia!”
Wang Yuxin snapped at Mia, the blush on her face making her already flowing simplicity even more attractive.
“Oh, come on, I borrowed Xin Xin for a while, and you’re making fun of me, I can’t afford to mess with her, but I can always hide, right? I’ll give Xin Xin back to you, I’m going to go check on Asher. I can’t let him get drunk by that Claude guy when he’s recovering from his injuries.”
Mia left Xin Xin with a “you’re great” expression and walked away, leaving Nangong and Wang Yuxin alone to smile at each other.
Nangong asked looking at Wang Yuxin in his arms and said tenderly, “Xin Xin, I will make you happy and will never fail you in this life.”
“I’m sure.”
The buzz in Nangong asked’s villa didn’t sort of calm down all together until the night.
Every time she thought of this, the corners of Mia’s mouth involuntarily rose in an arc, and her heart was calm and comfortable. Once upon a time, she only felt that she had been indebted to Nangong Man, unable to give a response to his feelings, but now she was much more at ease.
She had always treated the feelings Nangong Man gave herself as affection between siblings, and because they perceived each other differently so the response would become different. Ever since Mia knew that Wang Yuxin liked Nangong Man, she had been trying to get Nangong Man to notice the guardian elf by his side, and now that they were indeed married at last, she would have Xin Xin to take care of Nangong Man instead of herself, not in the name of her sister, but in the name of her wife.
“Oh, great,” Mia laughed as she flopped down on her bed, flipping through a book in her hands.
Asher came out of the bathroom just in time to see Mia clutching a book and giggling, he thought it was something funny in the book, where he knew that when he got closer, Mia was holding a parenting book and reading happily.
“What are you laughing at?”
When Mia saw Asher coming to her side, her body that was lying on her back flipped over and rested her little head on Asher’s lap, smiling, “Asher, do you think if Nangong asked and Xin Xin’s child would be a couple with our child in the future?”
Asher suddenly snorted out a loud laugh, “Thought you had something funny to tell me, so you’re hitting on my son before he’s even born, you …”
Mia tilted her head, dodging Asher’s pointing finger, and pouted, “Does that mean it’s not okay to be a daughter?”
“Of course you can”, Asher said softly as he hugged Mia who was lounging on the bed, thrusting his head between Mia’s loose hair and sniffing her body odor, “I love both boys and girls, as long as they are our children, as much as I love you. ”
Mia smiled tenderly, in this world, besides her grandfather, she had other relatives, there was Wang Yuxin, there was Nangong asked, there was Asher.
“Morning.”
Asher was in a very good mood today, the long-lost feeling of accomplishment after last night’s spicy destruction had returned. So a gentle greeting was exchanged with the security guard as he walked to the entrance of the villa.
It didn’t matter if he said hello, but it was Asher’s fault for scaring people by saying hello. Looking at Asher, who was full of kindness, the guard’s scalp tingled, and he immediately rubbed his eyes, thinking that he was possessed.
Asher drove straight to the downstairs of Centurion after leaving the Jun residence, she thought now he should go and see if this glimpse of the little woman he had destroyed last night was still having a good trip to work.
How could the receptionist not know Asher? This is the husband of the president of her company! So the receptionist picked up the phone and was about to call Mia, but unexpectedly Asher’s long and slender finger waved, signaling the receptionist to stop the movement in her hand.
“I’ll go find her myself.”
As Asher walks up to the door of Mia’s office he hears Mia and Namgung asking about the conversation.
“Are you still thinking about the American side? I’ve seen you’re always distracted when you’re reviewing documents lately, and since Asher’s illness is almost healed, it’s the headquarters in the US that can keep you occupied, right?”
Nangong asked looking seriously at Mia who had some melancholy on her face, as if she was seeing her melancholy clearly.
“Well, yeah Nangong, I don’t know how it’s going on Grandpa’s side, I haven’t seen him for a long time, I wonder if he’s getting better, and if those directors in the company are still making things difficult for Grandpa.”
Mia’s gentle voice came from the office, and Asher felt his heart tighten when he heard Mia’s concern. Ever since bringing Mia back from America, he hadn’t asked Mia about Shengshi’s affairs. On one hand, it was due to his trust in Mia’s ability, and on the other hand, he didn’t want Mia to feel sad when she heard the bad news, he would blame himself in that case.
“Mia , you don’t have to worry too much, right now your body is not fit for you to think about so many things, you are still pregnant and thinking so much is a burden on your body, you will not be able to bear it.”
