The distribution and promotion of the movie *Myth*

were tossed to the assistant's office by Su Yehao, to be handled by experienced personnel.

After chatting with Nangong Tian, he couldn't help but worry about visiting the child. He was afraid that when they met, sparks would fly and the hard-won peace would turn into a death warrant.

Due to hormonal imbalances, Nong Qingying hadn't been in the best of moods lately.

She was mentally exhausted by the baby's crying, and aside from breastfeeding, she left all other tasks to the nanny.

A few days ago, she'd heard the family doctor mention tools that could help, and now she was even skipping breastfeeding herself. Becoming a father had taught Su Yehao many new things, such as the little guy mostly being awake at night and asleep during the day.

Since the baby's birth, Su Yehao had only spent one night with him, and afterward, he finally realized how worthwhile it was to pay for a nanny.

Thinking he needed to give Nong Qingying a heads-up, to avoid getting caught in the crossfire later.

Therefore, Su Yehao took some time in advance and went to the mansion on Barker Road alone, deciding to test the waters with Nong Qingying and give her a heads-up.

As it turned out, this was a very wise decision.

As soon as Nong Qingying heard that Nangong Tian wanted to visit the baby, how could she not guess that there was an ulterior motive?

If it were entirely for the baby, Su Yehao could simply bring the child out. There was no need to visit in person.

Don't let Nong Qingying's usual tomboyishness fool you; she was actually quite sensitive.

Otherwise, how could she have felt so wronged by a few sarcastic remarks back then, allowing Su Yehao to take advantage of her vulnerability, after which she ran off to Japan for some peace and quiet?

At that moment, as soon as Su Yehao finished speaking.

Nong Qingying immediately looked surprised and hurriedly said, "Why would she come? And so soon? You're just making things worse! Are you deliberately trying to harm me?"

"…What do you mean?"

Su Yehao was at his wit's end. Being caught between several girls lately, he honestly wanted to find an opportunity to escape and relive the peaceful days of self-cultivation, detached from the world.

Nong Qingying looked anxious and continued, "Look at my stomach, I haven't worked out to get back in shape yet, so I can only wear a nightgown to cover it up. I'm a good eight pounds heavier than before I had the baby! I'm definitely a fatty, and look at my complexion, so haggard! Can you blame me for saying you're trying to harm me?"

"…"

Su Yehao lost the ease he had when doing business, pinched the bridge of his nose, and sighed,

"Compared to other pregnant women, you're doing great, okay? Even now, you're only a little over a hundred pounds. How does that have anything to do with being fat? You can always put on some makeup. You have so many cosmetics anyway, they're almost expired from being pregnant until now."

"That won't do, I still have to feed the baby. The nanny will nag me if she finds out."

Worried and pacing around, Nong Qingying then asked him, "Can't we wait a month or two before letting her come over? If I start exercising and crash dieting, I'm confident I can lose weight quickly."

Su Yehao rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "She's just visiting the baby, she's not here to compete with you for Miss Hong Kong. And you want to starve our son to death by going on a diet? Don't make such a fuss. I'll help you stall for two or three days so you can prepare yourself mentally, okay?"

Completely ignoring his words, Nong Qingying sat down cross-legged, worrying and saying, "What do you know? Miss Nangong is so beautiful. Women before and after childbirth are like two different people. Wouldn't I be completely defeated if I see her now?"

Realizing he was wasting his breath, Su Yehao said dejectedly,

"Nangong has a great personality, and she even prepared a gift for the baby. After this visit, we can go back to how things were before, each living our own lives."

"How about I go to the California N3 Ranch to avoid the storm?"

"…Are you even listening to me? My grandfather and my parents are still excited. If you take the baby to America before your confinement period is over, wouldn't they explode on the spot?"

Su Yehao sighed again.

After thinking it over, Nong Qingying finally agreed.

Her thoughts were similar to Yin Liuli's: if possible, it would be best to never see each other again. She had no desire for a "big happy family."

Everyone could close their doors and live their own lives, which would effectively reduce many unnecessary conflicts.

…

Two days later.

At a little past nine in the morning, Su Yehao took Xiao Nizi and drove to Barker Road.

Seeing the house, Nangong Tian casually asked, "I've seen this place in the newspapers. It looks even more impressive in person. You're really willing to spend the money to keep a mistress in a gilded cage."

Realizing he was in trouble, Su Yehao immediately shook his head and explained,

"I knew her before I started doing business. She took my advice and invested in Yahoo, earning a lot of money just like us. Her skincare business is also doing very well. She bought the house herself."

"So, the news in the papers is correct. She really is very rich, even more successful than me?"

"Winning early doesn't count as winning. She just got started earlier. Your Tianyu Entertainment has been doing so well lately. It's only a matter of time before you surpass her…"

Su Yehao sighed inwardly, thinking that life was simply unbearable.

However, he also knew that he was currently just a punching bag caught in the middle. Unless he let them vent their anger first, it would be easier for problems to arise in the future.

Fortunately, he had basically defused most of the landmines this time. After getting through this period, things should be more comfortable.

So, with the determination to withstand the pressure, Su Yehao had been facing the problems head-on recently. He actually had many opportunities to slip away, but what needed to be faced would always need to be faced. He could escape for a while, but not forever.

He drove the car into the yard.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Nizi looked around and soon saw the exquisitely dressed Nong Qingying, smiling and standing at the door, greeting them, "You're here. Miss Nangong is really beautiful, even more beautiful in person than in photos."

It was a bit cold in the winter, so Nong Qingying was wearing a beige trench coat, looking almost unchanged from before she had the baby.

After all, this woman never lifted a finger to do housework, and she had been worried about her figure since she first became pregnant. She had even hired someone to come to her home for a comprehensive treatment the past couple of days and had a stylist come this morning.

With her natural good looks, standing at the door, she hardly looked like a new mother.

Seeing a good start, Xiao Nizi smiled and said, "It's so cold, you shouldn't have come out. Be careful not to catch a cold. Where's Hao's baby? Let's go inside and chat."

Two women, one drama.

Nangong Tian naturally went over and used her experiences with pregnancy as a starting point, chatting with Nong Qingying about related topics and praising her greatly, saying that Nong Qingying looked great and didn't look like a mother at all.

Su Yehao followed behind them, not daring to breathe loudly, feeling that the scene was a bit magical… and dangerous.

Finding an opportunity, Su Yehao tugged on Linda Yun's arm and asked in a low voice, "Can you smell the gunpowder? Women are more sensitive to this kind of thing. I shouldn't have to hang myself later, right?"

Linda Yun pondered for a moment, then said to him in a firm tone, "It should be okay. I haven't met any rivals in love before, so I don't really know."

"That's nonsense. Since I met you in high school, you seem to have been single."

After observing warily, Su Yehao noticed that Nangong Tian had already picked up the baby and was praising how cute he was.

The little guy had gotten past the wrinkly stage, and his appearance was completely different from when he was first born. He was very likable.

Linda Yun was instantly melancholic and muttered,

"Don't hit someone in the face or expose their shortcomings. I didn't offend you. Is it wrong to not have a boyfriend? After seeing your situation, I feel that being single is great. The richest man in Hong Kong, scared to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat."

"It's a shura field. One wrong move and I'll lose my life. How can I not be nervous…"
