Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 904: Chapter 904: Must Go Out Today Chapter 904: Chapter 904: Must Go Out Today “We’re not! Can’t you see that your father hates me?”

“He just wanted to use me. Now that he has gotten the shares, I’m no longer of any value to him!” Jian Yufei angrily retorted.

Xiao Lang shook his head, “He doesn’t hate you… He hates your father for being deceived by Ruan Anguo in the past, for transferring the shares to him… Yufei, there’s no reason for me to lie to you, you have to believe me, truly!”

Jian Yufei stared at him, but couldn’t bring herself to believe what he was saying.

She only believed her grandfather’s words, for his words were the truth.

What Xiao Zibin had told her was all false.

“Xiao Lang, perhaps your father is deceiving you as well.”

Xiao Lang was shaken, “Impossible.”

Jian Yufei bit her lip and said nothing more, “Please leave, I need some peace alone.”

Xiao Lang also became quiet.

“Aren’t you going to eat something?”

“I’m not hungry!” Jian Yufei coldly refused.

Xiao Lang pressed his lips together, glanced at her, and said gently, “Then get some good rest, don’t overthink things.”

How could she not overthink?

Jian Yufei turned her gaze away, no longer looking at him.

Xiao Lang silently left her room and gently closed the door behind him.

Jian Yufei walked to the window and pulled back the curtains, looking out into the night with tears of sorrow in her eyes.

Ruan Tianling, give me just a little more time, I will definitely find a way to get someone to rescue you.

***************

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, five days had gone by.

During these five days, Jian Yufei had not gone out at all.

Xiao Lang did not agree to her going out, and she dared not contact the outside world with her phone; she had no way to notify Cu Haoyan.

Ruan Tianling must be anxiously waiting by now.

In fact, she was also anxious, and very irritated…

Sunlight filtered through the blue floral curtains, heralding a new day.

Jian Yufei got out of bed, put on a long dress, and then went to the bathroom to wash up.

She thought to herself that she must go out today, by any means necessary!

Walking downstairs, she saw two maids in the living room discussing something with smiling faces.

When they saw her coming down, the smile on the maid’s face remained unchanged, “Miss Jian, you’re up.”

“Mhm. Where’s your young master?”

“The young master is in the kitchen,” the maid said with a mysterious smile.

What was he doing in the kitchen?

As far as she knew, Xiao Lang, just like Ruan Tianling, was the sort who didn’t even touch spring water with his fingertips.

They never cooked, so she was a bit curious about what he was doing.

Jian Yufei walked into the spacious kitchen to see Xiao Lang standing in front of the table, expertly cracking eggs into a glass container.

He was wearing casual home clothes, his sleeves rolled up, revealing his muscular arms.

His serious and focused demeanor made him look like a very domestic man…

This Xiao Lang was utterly unconnectable to the one who had shot Ruan Tianling.

“Yufei, come and make it with me,” he called out happily as he saw her enter.

Jian Yufei stepped forward and saw eggs, flour, and cream on the table.

She asked, puzzled, “Are you making a cake?”

“Mhm. Come and join me. Do you know how?” Xiao Lang asked her.

She knew how, just that she was not in the mood to do it.

“Xiao Lang, I want to go out today, to get some fresh air,” she said directly to him.

Xiao Lang’s smile faded a bit as he nodded, “You can, but can you help me finish the cake before you go out?”

“Sure,” Jian Yufei agreed readily.

Making a cake was actually quite simple.
