The CEO’s Wife Has A Secret - Chapter 212
Lim Yi Sheng went out of the elder’s office after discussing what they need to discuss. He can’t say that he is happy with the outcome of their conversation but to be honest, it is actually better than what he initially thought it would be.
His grandfather may be strong-willed and won’t easily back down but the words that he uttered shows that he still has a soft spot after all.
The structure of the mansion makes the receiving are he center which means that before you could go out, it is necessary to pass the receiving area before going out.
Soon as he reached the receiving area, he saw his mother anxiously waiting on the couch.
Seeing her right now after that intense conversation he had with his grandfather about his father’s proof of infidelity, he can’t help but feel guilty towards his kind mother. She had really suffered a lot for them.
He may delay this again now but he will still eventually need to tell this matter to his mother as well as his younger sister, Shinyi.
No matter how hard he tries to imagine their possible reactions when they learned of this, the only thing he could think of is the hurt and sadness on their faces.
Meanwhile, when Su Nujiao saw her son coming from the direction of the elder’s study, she immediately ran towards him and the anxiousness in her heart subsided a little.
Ever since Lim Yi Sheng went inside her father-in-law’s study, she really can’t feel at ease so she decided to wait for her son here.
The look on her father-in-law’s face earlier was so frightening which obviously shows how furious he is, even though she knew that he wouldn’t hurt his grandson her mother’s instinct to protect her child automatically switched on.
“Son, what happened? Did father scold you?” she asked worriedly.
“Grandfather has already calmed down. Mother doesn’t have to worry.” Lim Yi Sheng reassuringly.
More than his words, Su Nujiao felt relieved seeing the smile on his son’s face. Maybe she really did worry for nothing.
“Just what made father that angry anyway.”
“It is about something very important, but I guess it is not yet time for mother to know about it.”
When Su Nujiao heard those words, she frowned slight at the way her son phrased his sentence but before he could ask about it her son spoke once again.
“Mother, please prepare light soup and the medicine for grandfather. He was agitated earlier so it is better to take precautions.”
Su Nujiao understood what her son meant as she is the person aside from their family doctor who has a clear understanding of the elder’s health.
Feeling that her son doesn’t want to continue the previous topic, she just let it go because she knows that when the time comes that she needed to know about it already he would definitely say it no natter what.
“Mother, understands. I’ll prepare it immediately but do you think it is already alright to go in and disturb him?”
“Yes, Mother. It is alright.”
“Then I’ll follow what you said. How about you? You haven’t had your dinner yet since you went straight to your grandfather when you came, don’t you want to eat first? I’ll have them prepare something for you.”
“There is no need, I will just whip something up at home. Just take care of grandfather.”
“Alright then. Just make sure you eat something when you got back home, okay?”
“Yeah, I will.”

When Hannah left, the first Xi Ana did was to wash up totally forgetting that she had yet to take her dinner. Even after she had showered she still didn’t remember about it.
Xi Ana is currently inside her study reviewing some documents even though they are not urgent since she is waiting for her husband to come back, it’s better to use her time productively.
Both of their study rooms were designed to be soundproofed which made them totally unaware of what’s happening outside because they can’t hear anything.
Because of that, she didn’t even realize that her husband has arrived and is already inside their house. She only realized that Lim Yi Sheng is back when the door to her study opened and the first thing she saw is her husband’s face.
“I first checked our room and when I couldn’t find you there so I knew that you were here, are you busy?” Lim Yi Sheng glanced at the stack of papers in front of her and she could easily determine what was running on Lim Yi Sheng’s mind right now.
Well anyone who would see so many papers on top of a person’s work table would ȧssume that all those were his or her workloads.
She raised her gaze and looked at her husband who seemed exhausted despite showing a smile on his face.

Xi Ana frowned a little, just what happened in the Lim Mansion earlier? Then again, it must have been serious for her husband to look like this.
“You can go and take a shower, I’ll just clean up here and I will follow you back to the room soon.” she urged.
“Alright.” Lim Yi Sheng smiled and said before going back to their room.
Like what she said earlier, these documents weren’t really urgent so there is no need to finish everything tonight. It is alright to just finish everything by the next day.
Once she’s done tidying her table she went back to their room. She sat down on the bed for a while.
Not long after, Lim Yi Sheng went out of the bathroom in his robe with his hair dripping wet and Xi Ana shook hear head a little.
She stood and took the towel from his hand and told him to dress properly, “Put on some clothes and I’ll help you dry your hair.”
Lim Yi Sheng deliberately went out with wet hair so that his wife would dry his hair for him. Today, his conversation with his grandfather almost drained all his energy and the only thing he wanted right now is to recharge.
“Okay.” he obediently went to his closet and changed into a more comfortable sleepwear before going out.
Meanwhile, Xi Ana walked towards her vanity table and set up the hair blower. Once Lim Yi Sheng finished putting on his clothes she gestured him to take a seat in front of her which the latter obediently followed.
She adjusted temperature of the hair blower ad started drying his hair while occasionally massaging his scalp. “How’s grandfather?”
“I can’t say that he’s not angry anymore but at least he has already calmed down.” those words meant that the matter isn’t entirely resolved.
“What made him angry anyway?” she asked.
For him to be so angry, it is definitely a serious matter.
“He had already learned of Samantha’s existence.”
Her hands which were busy drying her husband’s hair momentarily stopped when she heard those words. If the elder already know then it is obvious that he would be furious.
“No wonder he was mad. Knowing his personality, he wouldn’t have silently accepted it. So how did you handle it? In two weeks we will also tell Samantha about her identity.”
Her husband already promised the young lady so even if something like this happened they can’t just go back on their word.
“I know and I don’t plan on going back from my words. I did explain to him everything I know about Samantha and her mother, Cheng Ningxue. Although that calmed him down it didn’t change the result I expected.”
When they last talked about this matter Lim Yi Sheng told her about the past of Elder Lim and how it would mostly affect his decision towards this matter.
Even she speculated that the elder would not acknowledge Samantha as a part of the Lim Family easily.
While she was distracted by her thoughts, her stomach suddenly growled which pulled her back to the reality.
She finally remembered that she had not yet taken her dinner and she even forgot to cook something to eat.
“That’s your stomach.” Lim Yi Sheng said looking so amused that Xi Ana was left with no words.
Seeing his expression Xi Ana rolled her eyes at him, “I’m still a human and my stomach growling is a normal bodily process.”
Lim Yi Sheng found her embarrassed state rather cute that he can’t help but want to pinch her cheek which he eventually did.
“Ouch.” Xi Ana protested.
“Sorry, my dear wife. You must have forgotten to eat dinner again. I still haven’t taken my dinner yet, shall we prepare some easy to cook food?” Lim Yi Sheng said while chuckling.
Xi Ana decided not to pursue the matter since she is hungry. “Sure, I think we still have some pasta left, that would be a lot easier to prepare.”
