Chapter 51: Sleep Talk

‘Sleeping after eating, is this the life of a pig?’ As Qin Yu thought this, she felt sleepy.

“Xiao Yu, I need a silly little wife.” When Qin Yu was about to fall asleep, she heard Ning Chen’s soft dream-like voice.

Qin Yu suddenly woke up. She turned her head to look at Ning Chen, who had not moved at all, and wondered if she had heard wrong.

“Why?” She asked hesitantly.

Ning Chen did not make a sound.

He must be dreaming. Was he talking in his sleep? Qin Yu sighed softly.

“I am blind. Only by marrying a stupid wife can others rest assured of me.” Ning Chen was mumbling, but Qin Yu heard every word.

She did not dare to move. She closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. Had Ning Chen discovered something? What did he mean?

Qin Yu knew that Ning Chen’s situation in the Ning family wasn’t good. She completely understood what Ning Chen meant, yet didn’t at the same time.

Was he dreaming, or was he talking to her? Had he found out that she was pretending to be an idiot?

Qin Yu reviewed her actions over the past few days. With her years of experience in pretending to be stupid, there were definitely no problems.

Even at today’s dinner, even if she was a little out of control, it would not be suspicious.

Ning Chen could not have found out. Then, was he revealing his true feelings?

Qin Yu did not know when she fell asleep.

When she woke up, the light in the room was dimmed. She was shocked to realize that she had slept the whole afternoon.

Ning Chen was not there. She did not even know when Ning Chen had left.

She got up and opened the door slightly. There was no one in Ning Chen’s office, but the lights were on.

Qin Yu walked out of the lounge and walked around Ning Chen’s office. When she saw her bag on the sofa, she suddenly remembered the card and phone Ning Chen had given her. She could not help but be ecstatic again.

She took out her phone. The only contact on the phone was Ning Chen. There was a message on his WeChat.

“I have something to take care of. Tell me when you wake up. I’ll get someone to send you home. Tomorrow night, you’ll accompany me to Second Uncle’s house to attend the evening banquet. Be good!”

Qin Yu immediately replied, “Brother, I’m awake.”

Immediately, a secretary pushed the door open and came in. “Young Madam, the driver is waiting downstairs.”

“Okay.” Qin Yu grabbed her backpack and followed the secretary out.

The phone rang. It was Ning Chen.

There was a faint smile in his voice. “I have some things to take care of. You can go back by yourself. You can only go home. You can’t run around. It’s already dark.”

“I understand, Brother,” Qin Yu answered obediently.

Her mind was still thinking about the words Ning Chen had said to her before she went to bed. She couldn’t help but feel sympathy for him.

After a good night’s sleep, her mind was clear and she came to a decision.

The truth she wanted to find was in the Ning family. Ning Chen’s position in the Ning family wasn’t good, so he was her ally, and Ning Chen was indeed good to her.

If Ning Chen needed a silly wife to “decorate” the place, that would be great. She could totally do it.

With that thought, the weather became clear.

As for what happened in the morning, it must have been Ning Chen’s sleepwalking or her own hallucination. It must have been a dream, something that did not really happen.

‘Don’t think, don’t think, don’t think. Okay, forget it!’

Qin Yu happily got in the car and went home.

Her tablet was already filled with photos sent by the four little ones. All of them were the dishes she had eaten today.

Nan Yuan told her that it was a great pity that Ning Chen had married a little beauty with some IQ problems. What a shame as she was quite cute.

Qin Yu felt very relieved listening to this.

Her original intention of playing dumb was to live well in the Shi family. She did not want people outside the Shi family to think that she was a fool. She wanted to save face!

However, if no one could see her problem, it meant that her acting skills were still passable. If she went to the Ning family to make a scene tomorrow, her silly reputation would probably spread.

The Shi family had hidden her because she was an embarrassment. The Ning family would not. They wished that the whole world knew that Ning Chen’s wife was a fool. This would be even more of a blow to him.

This person was too astute, and only a fool remained. Who would not know that this was the effect that Ning Chen wanted? Sometimes, showing weakness was to conserve energy and wait for the next move!

Ning Yu did not seem to be Ning Chen’s opponent. Today, he had asked him to give Shi Xiao to him in a few moves. Although it would not work, it would at least let him suffer a hidden loss.

With his IQ, could he be a match for Ning Chen? Therefore, the person that the Ning family would truly pit against Ning Chen was definitely not Ning Yu.

Then, they could push the blame onto Ning Yu’s father, Ning Jie. Tomorrow, they would be able to see that old man and find out what was going on!
