Actually, before making the phone call, Liu Ning had already been to Qi Shifeng's house.
But the servant at home told her that Qi Shifeng was not there. He had taken the kids out on a trip.
Normally, this wouldn't have been a big deal.
However, when Liu Ning learned that Qi Shifeng had gone on this trip with Xu Tingyu and Youyou, she instantly got upset.
This phone call was not only to ask about Qi Ruixi's situation but also an excuse for her to question him about why he was still involved with Xu Tingyu.
Qi Shifeng hated it the most when she mentioned Xu Tingyu.
But now, in his heart, he and Xu Tingyu were back together, so there was no way to avoid this issue.
"If you're calling just to create trouble, I don't have the time to waste with you."
"Also, I think I need to remind you that, actually, the three children you gave birth to aren't that great either. They don't need others to stir things up."
Qi Shifeng glanced far away at Xu Tingyu, who was whispering to Youyou, head to head.
Sometimes, he actually envied Youyou.
He envied that Youyou's mom and dad both loved him very much.
Especially Xu Tingyu.
Even though she hated him, his father, so much, it never affected her love for Youyou.
And Youyou never had to doubt whether his parents loved him or not.
Even though Xu Tingyu had been away for four years, Youyou never thought that his mom didn't love him.
This was the confidence he and Xu Tingyu had given Youyou.
This confidence of love would give him the courage to do anything in his life.
Liu Ning was obviously angered by him and immediately retorted, "How dare you say that my children aren't great? Are the ones she gave birth to so much better?"
"Of course. Because I know I'm not that great, but I know my son is extremely awesome."
"He has many merits, and the best one is that he has an especially wonderful mom."
Sometimes when Qi Shifeng got that stubborn and reckless attitude, his words could really infuriate people.
Just like now, Liu Ning was completely trapped by his words and was gasping for breath on the other end of the phone.
"Fine, you've grown wings and I can't control you anymore. But let me tell you, keep your ex - wife away from my daughter."
"Don't corrupt my daughter. If Xixi really hides from me and has a boyfriend, I will never forgive you and Xu Tingyu."
Liu Ning shouted angrily on the other end.
Actually, she knew she was being unreasonable, which was why she had to scream so loudly.
Her uneasiness stemmed from the fact that she knew she couldn't control the lives of any of her children.
None of the three children she had painstakingly given birth to was on her side.
Even Qi Ruixi, the daughter she loved the most, always found her annoying.
Not only did she find her annoying, but she also got close to someone like Xu Tingyu, regardless of her face and feelings.
So she attributed all her anger to Xu Tingyu.
Qi Shifeng saw Xu Tingyu and Youyou both laughing. His heart felt itchy, and he didn't want to waste any more time with Liu Ning, so he just hung up the phone.
It was only after Liu Ning had cursed for a while that she realized the phone had been hung up.
She shouted and smashed her phone. Her eyes were all red.
"I've given birth to three enemies for myself!"
After scolding angrily, she looked at the phone on the ground and suddenly thought of someone.
Then, she suddenly laughed.
Since Xu Tingyu had made her unhappy, she wouldn't let her be so smug either.
After Qi Shifeng hung up the phone, he blocked Liu Ning's number and then threw his phone aside. He walked towards Xu Tingyu and Youyou.
Seeing him coming, Youyou smiled and said, "Dad, come quickly. The story mom told is so interesting."
Qi Shifeng couldn't help but smile. There was no sign of the unpleasantness he had just had with Liu Ning.
"Really? Then Youyou tell dad the story."
He sat down but chose to sit on Xu Tingyu's side. He easily half - hugged her from behind.
The weather on the island was great today. The sun was shining brightly outside.
They were sitting on the sofa in the living room. In front of them was a clear floor - to - ceiling window, through which they could see the sparkling sea level in the distance.
The three - person family leaned together, with smiles on each of their faces. It was a warm moment that was hard to describe in words.
In Kyoto, Qi Ruixi got into Zou Yu's car and complained, "Thank goodness I'm smart. I knew my mom would come without notice, so I made preparations in advance."
The residence that Liu Ning had gone to today was prepared by the Qi family for Qi Ruixi.
The location was excellent.
But actually, since Qi Ruixi had confirmed her relationship with Zou Yu, she didn't often live there.
The two of them weren't exactly living together. Zou Yu had his own principles. He thought that living together before marriage would have a bad influence on her if it got out.
Even though they slept together for more than half a month out of a month, Zou Yu still insisted on living in his own house.
They would both go to each other's places. Qi Ruixi had rented an apartment near Zou Yu's house.
Compared to the large flat prepared for her by her family, the apartment was much smaller.
But it was just right for the two of them.
Moreover, she could fill it with items belonging to the two of them and freely wash out photos of the two of them and put them on the bedside table.
She didn't have to worry about someone coming to check on her or someone coming in directly and rummaging through her things when she was out.
This apartment wasn't rented in her name. Except for her and Zou Yu, no one knew about it.
As for the slippers and toothbrush that Liu Ning had seen in her large flat, they were indeed used by Zou Yu.
But it didn't matter. This couldn't be considered evidence. Liu Ning wasn't going to take the things to extract DNA, was she?
If her mom questioned her in the future, she would just firmly claim that they were her own.
Hearing her complaint, Zou Yu gently touched her face with a look of pity. "I'm sorry. It's all my fault that I didn't take good precautions and got you into this situation."
Getting a girl pregnant without getting the approval of her family was really bad.
Qi Shifeng and Qi Ye not beating him up was entirely due to their good self - restraint.
Seeing his expression, Qi Ruixi knew that he was secretly blaming himself again. She immediately said seriously, "How can this be your fault? Didn't I deceive you?"
Actually, Zou Yu was really a very responsible man.
He was reluctant to let her take contraceptive pills and always took precautions.
It was her who sometimes went crazy and didn't care. She deceived him into thinking that she would take the pills, but actually, she never took any.
She always had a lucky feeling that she wouldn't get pregnant.
But when she found out that she was pregnant, she inexplicably felt relieved.
So, to be precise, there was also a crazy streak in her bones.
Getting pregnant had put them in a passive position.
But it also made Qi Shifeng and Qi Ye stand on her side faster.
Her relationship with Zou Yu would also take a big step forward because of this.
Even more, as long as her brothers stood on her side, she was not far from not having to date secretly anymore.
Now, just as she had expected, Qi Shifeng had already prepared a way out for them.
At critical moments, her brothers were still reliable.
