Chapter 1211: She Didn’t Want Them to Meet
The little boy called out loudly when she spotted the approaching car, “Mom…”
Lin Ziya emerged from the car and a happy smile spread across her face.
The setting sun made her silhouette seem very long.
She walked over and took her son’s hand in hers.
“Rui Rui, have you eaten?” she asked her son.
Her son giggled and made a face at his mother.
“Rui Rui doesn’t eat food, Rui Rui wants to drink milk,” he said as he tugged on his mother’s trousers and circled around her.
Lin Ziya caressed his chubby cheeks and said, “Alright, kiddo. Go have your meal first and you’ll get your milk at night, is that okay?”
Her son nodded and he seemed so adorable and well-behaved that one couldn’t help but have the urge to hug him and give him a kiss on the cheek.
“Sure!” he said in his childish voice as he hugged his mother’s thighs tightly.
His nanny, Aunty Liu, had already served up the food in the dining room and there was also another hired help who had finished the household chores.
It was a sumptuous dinner with fish, meat, and vegetables. These were Lin Ziya’s favorite dishes. She had grown up in the northern part of the country and had also lived in America for a long period, so she couldn’t get used to the local dishes here at first and couldn’t even take spicy food at all, but she had gradually gotten used to the food here.
“Ziya, you should eat more fish so that your unborn child will have beautiful eyes,” Aunty Liu said with a smile.
They were all from Qingshui Town who had been hired by Lin Ziya to look after her son.

She didn’t enjoy doing household chores and couldn’t cook, so all household chores were performed by hired help.
When the nannies went back to their hometown over the holidays, Jiahang would take over.
In other words, she hardly stepped into the kitchen.
Lin Ziya took several pieces of fish.
She wanted to have a beautiful daughter and she hoped that her wish would be granted.
Rui Rui scooped up his rice with a tiny spoon. He ate very slowly and would play with his food after each mouthful before he took another mouthful of food.
This home looked very warm and familial. There were no argumentative voices and only the sounds of laughter and a child playing could be heard in this home.
A black Mercedes pulled up in the garage beside this mansion at night.
Chen Jiahang stepped out of the car. He was wearing a casual black suit and carried a document bag that contained his laptop and several important documents.
It was already 10 PM by the time he returned home, so only the lights at the doorway and along the corridors were lit.
He was afraid he would rouse his sleeping wife and the nannies, so he opened and closed the door very carefully.
He went to the washroom after he entered his home, then headed to the bedroom.
His footsteps were very light, as though he was afraid that he’d rouse his wife who had fallen asleep.
Nonetheless, he heard her gentle voice the moment he entered their bedroom.
“You’re home,” Lin Ziya said as she turned over to her side to switch on the night light before she looked at her husband.
She didn’t think he’d come home tonight.
Chen Jiahang nodded and walked over to the bedside.
“Go to bed,” he said as he patted her cheeks with a small smile.

Lin Ziya turned over but she didn’t close her eyes. Instead, she watched as he rummaged through the closet for his clothes before heading into the bathroom.
She figured that he probably wasn’t aware that He Xiyan had visited Mang Village that day. He wouldn’t be so calm if he had known.
All the better then! She didn’t want him to meet that woman either. She knew that things were impossible between them and also knew that He Xiyan wouldn’t come between their marriage, but she didn’t want them to meet. She didn’t even want them to exchange a single word with each other.
