Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Sister-in-law Gives Birth
Zhou Chaobin looked at them, smiling, with frost in his eyes, "You should be aware of the situation of disturbing the residents, right?"
Father Yang exchanged a look with his son.
The self-abasement and arrogance of a small man were displayed vividly on them. Deep down, afraid of Zhou Chaobin who was dressed in obviously expensive clothes, yet unwilling to be looked down upon, Father Yang stubbornly said, "Mind your own business, I can’t be bothered with you."
Saying that, he left with his family, not forgetting to threaten Yang Yingying, "You dead girl, just wait, I won’t let you off!"
Mother Yang looked at her daughter with pity, but as the elevator doors closed, her love gradually dissipated.
Yang Yingying stood defeated at the doorway.
"Are you okay?" Zhou Chaobin reached out to support her.
Yang Yingying realized it, quickly stood straight, and bowed apologetically to him, "I’m sorry, my family disturbed you."
"It’s okay." Zhou Chaobin gave her a slight smile, "You’re very strong, very great."
Yang Yingying was slightly taken aback, pulled at the corners of her mouth, and nodded to him, "Thank you, I’ll head back inside."
"Alright, I’m glad we became neighbors. Feel free to reach out."
"Hmm." fгeewebnovёl.com
Yang Yingying gave a perfunctory smile, opened the door, and lay on the bed.
Today, when she went to present her project plan, she was criticized for lacking professional skills, saying she got her position through connections.
So annoying.
Yang Yingying opened her laptop, unfolding her work. As a woman who wants to support Mu Ran, she mustn’t give up, she must strive, be strong, and overcome all obstacles!
She secretly cheered herself on.
On the other side, Zhou Chaobin proudly boasted to his good buddy Xiao Yu’an, "Last night I set my eyes on a girl, and tonight I’ve already won her heart."
Xiao Yu’an said indifferently, "Oh."
"Jealous?" Zhou Chaobin showed off.
Xiao Yu’an: "A bit gross."
Zhou Chaobin’s pale face gradually turned dark, "You old fossil, no wonder you got cheated on. Today, your grandfather sent me a rather dejected expression, you know what it reminded me of?"
Xiao Yu’an had a bad feeling, but curiosity couldn’t be defeated. He asked recklessly, "What?"
Zhou Chaobin: "Like a husband bringing a boss home for dinner in a pathetic way."
Xiao Yu’an: "..."
Silence.
Silence.
More silence.
"Where’s your address? I want to meet you."
"Haha, no need, my beloved misses me, that’s enough, bye." Zhou Chaobin pressed the phone close to his chest, the palpable menace in his tone just now was too terrifying.
Luckily he’s quick-witted.
He hung up the phone just in time.
Truly blessed!

Mu Ran decided to accept after field investigation, with two months of shooting enduring the most arduous and coldest time locally.
She found herself frequently thinking about Xiao Yu’an. To avoid becoming a person she’d mock herself, Mu Ran decided to keep busy.
So she applied for project initiation.
Spent two months with Xiao Jin in the icy landscape.
During this time, Xiao Yu’an wanted to come see her many times but was persuaded by Xiao Jin with all sorts of reasons.
But longing couldn’t deter a lover.
He came.
And saw her and Yun Fei laughing and chatting happily.
Xiao Yu’an’s eyes turned darker and more sinister, he gritted his teeth fiercely, his temples’ blood vessels about to burst.
He wanted to go up and question Mu Ran.
Stopped by Xiao Jin, "Uncle, I assure you, with me here, nothing will happen, but you know Aunt is rebellious, the more you forbid her, the more she’ll do it. If you rush over now, you’d be like a male side character in a book throwing a tantrum—helping the cause!"
Xiao Yu’an suppressing his rage had nowhere to vent, "Tell your aunt not to meet Yun Fei."
"You leave, I’ll try."
Chu Xijin looked at him sincerely, "Uncle, focus on work, don’t give up your career, Aunt won’t like it. If you work, I’ll be the first to inform you once Aunt wraps up shooting."
Xiao Yu’an felt a bit annoyed, a bit moved, "You’re becoming quite articulate now."
"It’s alright, it’s alright."
Chu Xijin laughed awkwardly.
Only after seeing Uncle leave did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.
She wiped the cold sweat off her forehead. Oh my, she really worked hard devising ways to separate them.
The shooting continued.
When Mu Ran wrapped filming, her sister-in-law was about to give birth!
Mu Ran hurriedly took Xiao Jin to the hospital.
Mu Dixin paced anxiously in the hospital. He saw Mu Ran and was displeased, "Where have you been these months, not even returning home for New Year."
"Stop shouting, I’m annoyed."
Mu Ran was also extremely nervous.
Mu Dixin continued, "I heard you and Xiao Yu’an broke up—it’s rumored by his grandfather—and you cheated on him, can you, as a girl, have some self-respect, some understanding!!!"
"Are you sick, have to argue with me now, huh."
Mu Ran abruptly stood up, her eyes instantly turning red, "Do you know what’s between us? All the blame falls on me, so I’m worse than an outsider. If you don’t know, shut up! Always harping on, does that make you competent!"
"Do you know how people in the circle talk about you now, they say you don’t cherish someone as good as Xiao Yu’an! They say you’ll have a hard time finding someone like him, your marriage market could be ruined, don’t you get it?!" Mu Dixin shouted irritably.
"Ruined, then ruined. Do I lack men? Only you care, only you care about face, I’m the shameless type, okay!"
If it weren’t outside the delivery room of her sister-in-law, Mu Ran would have turned and left immediately.
Damn it.
What a brother.
What a jerk!
"No arguing." the nurse frowned, reminding them.
The two snorted coldly, ignoring each other.
Chu Xijin gave Mu Dixin a cold glance. No wonder Aunt dislikes him.
Aunt didn’t cheat on Uncle at all.
He didn’t investigate anything, yet judged Aunt based on hearsay; it’s absurd.
Even if Aunt really did cheat on a man, so what!
Much ado about nothing.
Doesn’t understand caring for Aunt, really not a good brother.
If she didn’t know Aunt particularly disliked Brother, she wouldn’t have hidden Uncle’s presence, fearing she’d hate Uncle, causing a disaster.
Chu Xijin’s eyes grew sharper.
Mu Dixin glanced coldly.
Yet he withdrew his gaze in the peaceful sight of the child.
The three waited for five hours before finally witnessing the birth of the newborn, Mu Dixin anxiously asked, "What about my wife?"
"She’s in pretty good condition, family members can go in and see. Father, take a look, it’s a little princess here," the doctor said, handing the baby to Mu Dixin.
Mu Dixin quickly reached Feng Qikuo, holding her hand, gazing at her pale lips, and the belly that had flattened over several hours. The man, having faced all kinds of big scenes, shed bean-sized tears, "You’ve worked hard."
