Chapter 1389: I Only Want You (87)
However, he could not just take her back from Su Yan because the latter was no ordinary man.
Su Yan was the eldest male heir of the Su family in R Nation, and his aunt was the First Lady of the royal family.
He had a powerful and formidable family background.
Besides, his ill-stricken mother was still in the hospital, and he could not act rashly without considering the consequences.
——
Jing Chu somehow felt rather thrilled after ending the call, although she was still a little worried since Pei Yi was not one to be trifled with. However, she no longer wanted to have anything to do with him.
He’s already married and has a son. Did he stand up for me when his wife put me behind bars? Did he say anything to stop her?
It’s just my luck to have met him again.
I hope I’ll never see him again.
Never again for the rest of my life!
Jing Chu had no idea who Su Yan was at first; neither did she know his status and identity. She only found out who he really was when she arrived at the address.
However, she was not concerned about what Su Yan’s personality was like and all she wanted was to focus on doing her job well and look after Su Nainai. She believed that her life would improve gradually now that she was capable of generating an income for herself.
After babysitting Su Nainai in the Su family mansion for a few days, Jing Chu discovered that Su Yan was exceptionally concerned and caring toward his daughter, despite having a busy schedule. He would spend some time playing with her every day, his long working hours notwithstanding.
She could tell from Su Nainai’s attitude toward her father that the two were very close.
She could not help but take pity on Pei Ling, for Pei Yi was an irresponsible father by her standards.
He fared poorly as a father in comparison with Su Yan.
Pei Yi did not call her again ever since the time she hung up on him. However, she did not dwell on it and instead focused on taking care of Su Nainai.
Babysitting one toddler was much easier than babysitting two. However, Su Nainai was a hyperactive child who simply could not sit still. Su Nainai would crawl away to another spot within seconds of being left unattended.
Hence, for safety reasons, Jing Chu would take her along wherever she went, including the bathroom. Instead of leaving her alone in the nursery, Jing Chu would hug her to sleep. However, the awkward thing was... Su Nainai would start sucking on her nipple while sleeping at night.
Su Nainai was still incapable of forming proper sentences or speaking coherently. Hence, Jing Chu had to teach her how to speak, walk, and perform other chores within her job scope as a babysitter.
Although the weather was rather warm today, Jing Chu refrained from letting Su Nainai spend too much time in an air-conditioned room, for fear that she would catch a cold, especially since children had weaker immune systems compared to adults.
Thus, she carried her out of the house and took a stroll along a cooler spot in the yard.
Auntie Jiang, the head cook working for the Su family, scurried toward them with a basket of vegetables. As she was about to approach Jing Chu, she said, “Help me take the basket of vegetables to the kitchen and leave the child to me.”
Jing Chu asked, “It’s your job to bring the vegetables to the kitchen and my job to look after Nainai. Why should I hand her to you?”
Auntie Jiang stood in front of her and answered, “Nainai’s grandparents are asking to see her. Are you going to forbid them from doing so? Do you have the right to do that?”
Bearing Su Yan’s instructions in mind, Jing Chu said, “I’ll have to call Mr. Su first, then. If he agrees, I’ll bring Sugarbean to see her grandparents. Auntie Jiang, please bring the vegetables to the kitchen yourself.”
Upon hearing her words, Auntie Jiang glowered at her and put down the basket of vegetables. She then extended her arm in a bid to snatch Su Nainai away. However, Jing Chu managed to dodge in time, causing Auntie Jiang to miss.
“What are you trying to do!?!”
“Give me the child.”
“No.” Jing Chu then carried Su Nainai back into the house while Auntie Jiang took chase.
Jing Chu returned to the room and locked the door from the inside. She then called Su Yan to inform him of the matter, after which he said, “Well done. I’ll be on my way back.”
Jing Chu felt a huge sense of relief. She sat on the bed and said to Su Nainai, “Sugarbean, are you hungry?”
Su Nainai opened her mouth and stared at Jing Chu with her eyes wide open while making some incoherent sounds. Unable to decipher what she meant, Jing Chu took out some soft bread and pulled them into smaller pieces before feeding the pieces to Su Nainai.
The adorable sight of Su Nainai chewing on the bread pieces with her two baby teeth tugged at Jing Chu’s heartstrings.
Jing Chu continued to feed her and made her some milk. She then patted Su Nainai’s back to help her digest the food better. At the same time, Su Yan arrived home.
After hearing a knock on the door, Jing Chu carried Su Nainai to the door and answered it.
Su Yan took Su Nainai from Jing Chu’s arms and said, “Thank you. I’ve already taught Auntie Jiang a lesson and sacked her.”
Jing Chu asked, “Is there going to be a vacancy for a cook, then? Are you going to hire someone else to fill in for her?”
“Yes.”
“May I get my friend to fill the vacancy? She has superb culinary skills and whips up delicious food. She used to work for me too. However, I was too busy adjusting to the new job and couldn’t help her out the past few days. She’s working for another friend of mine now. She’s reliable and trustworthy. Mr. Su, could you let her have a shot at working here?”
Seeing how earnest she was, Su Yan agreed with a nod, “I’ll give her a chance, then.”
Exhilarated, Jing Chu nodded profusely and proceeded to call Fat Lass.
Fat Lass was working for Tang Zhijing temporarily and helping out with the miscellaneous chores because Tang Zhijing had more than enough servants to take care of the meals and tidy the house.
Upon hearing the piece of good news, Fat Lass agreed in delight, especially since she could be with Jing Chu too. Hence, she rushed to the Su family mansion after informing Tang Zhijing.
Su Yan was pleased with the dishes that she whipped up for dinner at night and took a liking to her culinary skills.
Hence, he decided to let her stay.
When it was time for bed, Jing Chu bathed Su Nainai before tucking her to sleep.
After a long, exhausting day, she proceeded to take a shower too.
As soon as she saw Su Yan sitting on the bed when she came out of the shower, she stopped in her tracks and said, “Mr. Su...”
Su Yan stood up and said calmly, “I came to take a look at Nainai. Rest early.”
“Alright.”
After he left, Jing Chu locked the door, changed into her pajamas, and sat on the bed.
Her mobile phone began vibrating continuously.
Jing Chu grabbed it and took a look at the caller display.
She decided not to answer and instead allowed it to continue vibrating.
However, the caller refused to give up and continued to call her again and again.
At last, Jing Chu switched off her mobile phone. Finally, she could get some sleep in peace.
When she switched on her mobile phone again the next morning, she discovered that she had received 42 missed calls from the same caller.
What does he want?
Is he mad?
She could not wrap her head around what Pei Yi was doing at all.
He was the one who gave up on me and abandoned me heartlessly back then. Isn’t it better to make a clean break?
What is he trying to do now? Does he want to make me his mistress again?
Does he want me to become his plaything and nothing more than an outlet for him to vent his sexual frustration and satisfy his needs?
Su Nainai only woke up after Jing Chu had had her breakfast and freshened up. Jing Chu carried her to the yard and placed her inside the playpen to help her practice how to walk.
She continued to show Su Nainai the way and tried to entice her to get her moving. Su Nainai was in high spirits and was waving her arms in the air excitedly. Fat Lass joined in on the fun after she was done with her chores.
