Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 400: Ningsuanʼs Deep Affection

Though she knew Ye Feiʼs claim that wearing the lingerie would be ”good for her” was nothing but a flimsy excuse, Ye Ningsuan didnʼt feel averse to the idea.

After all, she was the only one who would see her in it. But another question popped into her mind.

”Hey, how did you even have this with you? Iʼve never seen it before.”

The spatial pocket and the Barbarian Transformation were Ye Feiʼs deepest secrets. He hadnʼt even planned to tell his mom about them, knowing that such knowledge would be utterly useless to her.

If he ever used the transformation to do something outrageous, he didnʼt want her to worry about him. So, he quickly fabricated a story,”I just bought it. I was planning to surprise you with it someday, but it looks like the opportunity came sooner than expected.”

Ye Ningsuan didnʼt doubt him for a second. She playfully huffed, ”Surprise me? You little rascal is getting more mischievous by the day. Who knows who you really bought it for. Now youʼre using it to trick me!”

Ye Fei was taken aback. Todayʼs Ye Ningsuan seemed unusually jealous. Although most of it was just an excuse to act coquettish, there was a hint of genuine unease. He quickly put away his playful expression, gently pulled her into his arms, and softly asked, ”Ningsuan, whatʼs wrong?”

”Promise Ningsuan that no matter how far you go in life, you wonʼt leave her behind, okay? Ningsuan doesnʼt ask for much. Just a little corner in your heart is enough,” Ye Ningsuan said softly, lying quietly in Ye Feiʼs embrace. She had intended to keep these words buried deep inside, not wanting to burden Ye Fei with her worries.

But in his tender affection, she couldnʼt hold them back any longer.

Although Ye Ningsuan hadnʼt been very clear, Ye Fei quickly understood her concerns.

With more and more women in his life, and now even his beloved mom, Ye Ningsuan, being one of the oldest among them, had started to feel insecure.

She feared that he might stop loving her because of his newer, younger loves, and thus began to worry excessively.

Ye Fei hadnʼt expected that his aunt, a formidable businesswoman, would have such girlish insecurities. But it was precisely because of this that he felt even more moved by her. Her deep love for him was the reason for her concern.

He leaned down, kissed her lips gently, and looked into her beautiful eyes, saying softly, ”Silly, your worry is completely unnecessary. I will only ever cherish and love you in this life. I would never do anything to hurt you. Donʼt doubt yourself. In my heart, you are all perfect. Besides, am I the kind of person who would be irresponsible?”

”Of course not,” Ye Ningsuanʼs face lit up with a happy smile, and her mood instantly relaxed. She said gently yet firmly, ”But Ningsuan doesnʼt want to be your burden or responsibility. Ningsuan wants to be a woman who is useful to you!”

”You already are,” Ye Fei chuckled. ”If it werenʼt for you, Iʼd still have a bulge in my pants. Hey, itʼs happening again. Ningsuan, could you use that pretty mouth of yours to calm it down?”

”Pfft, Iʼm not dealing with that!” Ye Ningsuan knew Ye Fei was joking with her. Now that she had let go of all her worries, her mood improved dramatically. She giggled and broke free from his embrace, running towards the exit.

Seeing his eldest aunt, who had regained her spirits and was acting like a little girl again, Ye Fei felt great. He followed her quickly.

”Siqi, Ye Fei, where have you two run off to? Iʼve been looking for you everywhere,” Ye Ningbing greeted them as they emerged from the woods.

”I was just talking to him. Youʼre not a child anymore. Canʼt you handle being apart for a little while?” Ye Ningsuan didnʼt seem embarrassed at all. Instead, she playfully accused first.

”Huh?” Ye Ningbing was startled and instinctively looked at Ye Fei. Had he told her sister about their affair? How could she face them now?

”Whatʼs the matter? Hurry up and speak!” Ye Ningsuan put on a stern face.

”I... I...” Ye Ningbing was even more flustered. Had her mischievous sister really exposed their secret?

Seeing her younger sisterʼs nervousness, Ye Ningsuan couldnʼt help but smile. It had been a while since she had teased her sister like this. She was still as adorable as when they were kids.

But fearing that her sister might really run away out of embarrassment, Ye Ningsuan said, ”What are you talking about? Yun Jing, that jerk, did something like this. Why didnʼt you tell me or Siyao?”

”You mean that?” Ye Ningbing felt relieved. She had been worried about being exposed, but now she was glad that her secret was still safe. Although she no longer had feelings for Yun Jing, talking about him still made her uncomfortable. But thanks to Ye Ningsuanʼs teasing, she felt happy that their secret was still safe.

Ye Ningsuan almost burst out laughing but kept a straight face. ”What else could it be? Donʼt change the subject. Tell your sister honestly, what are you planning to do?”

”What can I do? Let him be,” Ye Ningbing said nonchalantly. ”I donʼt care what he does anymore.”

”You donʼt care?” Ye Ningsuan feigned surprise.

”Arenʼt you the one who always values family above everything else? How can you not care now? And arenʼt you angry about what he did?”

”Why should I be angry? Now I finally understand that there was never any love between us. We got together on a whim. I do care about this family, but whether heʼs in it or not doesnʼt matter,” Ye Ningbing said, stealing a glance at Ye Fei and feeling a fleeting sense of happiness.

Only now did she realize how wonderful love could be, far beyond the youthful infatuations of her past.

Ye Ningsuan was surprised that Ye Fei had managed to win over her most traditional-minded sister in such a short time. She asked with interest, ”So, what are your plans for the future? Divorce him and find someone more suitable?”

”I donʼt know. Iʼm afraid Chuqing wonʼt be able to accept it,” Ye Ningbing said uncertainly.

Although she had already distanced herself from Yun Jing, she worried that her daughter wouldnʼt be able to handle the truth.
