The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion

Chapter 378 - 391: I’m afraid you’ll run away with my daughter.

"I’ve recently signed up for a prenatal training class, so I might not have time to go shopping with you, sorry."Chu Ci lifted her hand to tuck her long hair behind her ear, her words full of distance and politeness.

"Oh, that’s okay."

Through the meal, Chu Ci barely spoke, and once they finished eating, she excused herself as being tired and returned to her room first.

Qin Mi stayed in the living room for a while before saying she had to go, and nagged Fu Bin to take the baby supplies from the car.

"It seems like there really isn’t any room at home right now, how about you keep it for now, and I’ll take it when the child needs it later."

Chu Ci’s displeasure was more than evident. Fu Bin didn’t want any awkwardness with her over such trivial matters.

"Bro, what’s going on between you and sis-in-law?"

Qin Mi had a vague feeling that there was a problem between the two of them, there was no intimacy like between a couple, but instead seeming distant.

"We’re fine. You head back now, and drive carefully on the way."

Qin Mi gave Fu Bin a look as if to say "say whatever you want" and then got into the car.

Once back at the villa, Fu Bin hesitated for a moment and went straight to Chu Ci’s bedroom. He knocked on the door for a while without hearing her, getting a bit worried, he just pushed the door open.

Chu Ci was lying in bed listening to music through her headphones, seeing Fu Bin come in, she frowned, "Why did you just come in without knocking?"

"I did knock, you just didn’t hear it."

Fu Bin walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, "Xiao Mi took all the things she bought back with her."

Chu Ci sat up in bed and paused the music on her phone, "Fu Bin, can you not stay here anymore? You and your family have seriously impacted my life."

Fu Bin looked at Chu Ci, raising a hand to pinch his brow, "I can guarantee that they won’t bother you anymore, but I have to stay here. I’m worried you’ll take off with my daughter." Dıscover more novels at NoveI-Fire.ɴet

"And after that? After I give birth, do you plan on staying here for the rest of your life?"

"As long as you don’t mind, I certainly would."

Fu Bin looked at Chu Ci with slightly raised brows and an extremely faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

"I’m talking to you seriously, can you not joke all the time?"

"I’m serious too."

"You’re just insane." Chu Ci irritably put her headphones back on, "Please leave, I want to sleep."

Fu Bin shrugged innocently, then got up and left the bedroom.

At the hospital, Han Xi had just stepped out of the elevator when she saw Liao Tingxiao waiting at the door of her office.

"Mr. Liao, you’re back."

Han Xi took out the keys from her bag and opened the office door, walking inside.

Liao Tingxiao followed and entered the office as well, "I came back to ask Doctor Han to check my wound."

Having been abroad for a week, Liao Tingxiao had the best doctors with him, so there was actually no need to visit the hospital.

"Alright, I’ll check it for you first."

Han Xi took the white coat from the hanger and put it on, casually pulling her hair out from under the coat.

Liao Tingxiao sat on the sofa, his gaze continuously on Han Xi.

Han Xi walked to Liao Tingxiao’s side, leaned over and lifted his clothes to check the wound, "Mr. Liao, your wound has healed. Just be careful not to strain it too much."

Liao Tingxiao slightly leaned closer to Han Xi, taking in the faint milky scent emanating from her, his lips forming a deep smile.

The office door suddenly swung open, and when Lu Jinghan saw what was happening inside, his expression instantly turned stern.
