As long as you don't get beaten, you can say anything.
Ji Yuting immediately stood up from her arms and rubbed her belly with precision.
Shengge chuckled and teased him: "I still like it best when your wife is in strict control. In the future, there will be less inspections and there should be more trust between people!"
He stopped agreeing and retorted: "It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that my wife is too beautiful. I trust you, but I don't trust those charming men outside."
well.
Shengge sighed, but it didn't make sense.

The night before the party.
Ning family.
Ning Chengen sent someone to deliver a custom-made exquisite dress early and placed it in Zhou Xiaoqing's room.
Zhou Xiaoqing stood by the window, sticking her head out from time to time and glancing towards the top floor.
In the past few days, she has been observing the situation on the top floor.
I found that someone would bring meals to me three times a day. The meals were not large and could only be eaten by one person.
If only her mother lived on the top floor, then the person who attacked her with an ashtray last time was probably her mother.
But why did her mother treat her like this?
They are both biological children, but her mother's attitude toward her and the three siblings Ning Chengen, Ning Chengqing, and Ning Jingxuan are completely different.
Moreover, as the wife of the Ning family, her mother’s status is very high. Why does she have scars on her wrists?
And why did Ning Chengqing and Jing Jingxuan have such strange expressions when they saw her appearing in the dining room?
With doubts in her heart, Zhou Xiaoqing sat on the bed without feeling sleepy.
Tomorrow is the return banquet. As the daughter of the Ning family, Ning Chengen is not even willing to tell her the secrets of the Ning family.
She was a little unwilling.
In order to prepare for the return banquet, all the servants in the Ning family's old house were busy. It was the time when surveillance was at its most relaxed. Could she take the opportunity to go up and take a look?
She was entangled in her heart for a long time. Fear and strong curiosity kept fighting in her heart. In the end, her curiosity won.
In the dead of night, the Ning family's old house was quiet without a sound.
It was as if the entire house had fallen into a deep sleep.
Zhou Xiaoqing was wearing slippers, holding an eyebrow trimmer on the dressing table, and walked slowly upstairs.
He decided to take a look at the iron gate first, as he did last time, to check out the situation.
Arriving at the top floor, the long corridor inside the iron gate was as dark as death, with gusty winds and a strange feeling.
She dared to shake the iron door, and the thick iron rope collided with the door frame, making a crisp banging sound, which was especially obvious in the dark night.
"Mother?"
She called softly.
After waiting for a while, there was no response. It seemed that the person on the top floor was asleep.
It seems that the only way to try is to climb out of the window.
She turned around and was about to leave, when the obvious sound of iron chains suddenly came from a certain room in the corridor.
It was the sound of heavy chains dragging on the floor and rubbing against each other.
Because the surrounding environment is too quiet, the sound is very abrupt.
"Mother? Is that you?"
She shouted again, but still no response.
Weird, really weird.
"What are you doing here."
The man's low and cold questioning suddenly came from behind, without any warning.
Zhou Xiaoqing was so frightened that she trembled all over and looked back in horror.
