Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband! Chapter 1186 - 1188: Extra 21
Previously on Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!...
"Stop messing around, I’m really tired..." Xia Ting weakly raised her hand to gently push his chest.
She really didn’t know where this guy got so much energy; he was about to wear her out.
"Tingting, let’s get married, okay?" Chen Li held her tightly.
"You’re still so young, what are you talking about marriage for!" Xia Ting said mercilessly, though she also wanted to get married.
But he’s not old enough, they can’t!
"Then let’s go home and meet Auntie, no, I mean meet Mom!" Chen Li immediately corrected himself.
He needed to meet the mother-in-law first and settle this matter to feel at ease.
Otherwise, the mother-in-law kept arranging blind dates for her, making his position very precarious!
Once the mother-in-law knew she was with him, she’d feel relieved too.
"You switch gears so fast!" Xia Ting said with a happy smile.
"Don’t change the subject! Let’s go home and see your mom, settle this so she won’t keep setting you up on dates, it’s not good for her to always worry about your marriage. Let’s show her we’re together so she can have peace at home."
"Let’s wait for a while, after you finish filming this movie, we’ll go home and stay for a few days, then tell Mom about it." Xia Ting tried to delay, because she wasn’t sure if Chen Li really wanted to be with her for a lifetime!
He loved her, she could feel it, but a decision to be together for life couldn’t be impulsive.
Maybe... he was just too dependent on her, and might not like her after some time.
If he really liked her, how could he be with Ling Xiaoxiao?
She didn’t want Mom to know about her and Chen Li for now, because she didn’t know if they could go the distance.
If Mom found out now, and she and Chen Li didn’t last, Mom would be heartbroken.
Better to wait and see what happens in the future.
He’s not yet old enough to marry, they still have over a year to consider if they truly want to be together.
"Alright." Chen Li agreed, not going back right now was also a wise decision.
After all, things with Ling Xiaoxiao weren’t resolved yet, and if the mother-in-law thought he was playing both sides, it would be terrible!
He never should have been with Ling Xiaoxiao in the first place; he had been too impulsive!
He caused unnecessary trouble for himself and hurt Tingting’s feelings.
"No one else can know about us being together for the time being, got it?" Xia Ting warned him sternly, afraid that he’d impulsively make their relationship public.
Revealing it now would do him no good since he’s currently dating Ling Xiaoxiao.
If it got out, he would be harshly criticized, and the online abuse these days was terrifying.
"Got it, I’ll do whatever you say!" Chen Li agreed readily, knowing what she was concerned about.
He wouldn’t reveal they were together so soon; this was also for her good.
If he broke up with Ling Xiaoxiao and then immediately publicized a new relationship.
She would be heavily criticized by fans, and she wouldn’t be able to handle it.
"I’m going to sleep a bit more." Xia Ting yawned, feeling her eyelids heavy as she hadn’t slept enough.
"Go to sleep." Chen Li kissed her forehead.
Xia Ting continued to sleep, and he stayed by her side, afraid she’d leave again.
While she was asleep, he posted on Weibo to thank all the fans.
Chen Li: Thank you everyone for all your help, we have found the lost treasure with the help of my assistant! Thanks to everyone who helped! We will be sending out rewards shortly, please contact the studio Weibo if you provided clues.
If it weren’t for the fans’ help, he probably wouldn’t have found Xia Ting so quickly.
Then he posted another Weibo message aimed at the company.
He wanted to use the fans to protect Xia Ting, not letting her leave him!
