My Ex-Wives: A Life I Long For

“I’m fine with anything,” Su Ye replied.

"Whatever? Then I won't buy it for you," Yang Mi said willfully.

Yang Mi herself still possesses a strong sense of pride and arrogance.

However, Su Ye was even more 'arrogant' than her. Yang Mi was originally waiting for Su Ye's reply, but instead of a reply, she received the 'beep beep' sound of the phone being hung up.

Yang Mi stared at her phone, stamped her foot, and muttered under her breath, "That arrogant guy..."

Meanwhile, Su Ye, at home, shrugged as he looked at his phone, which had run out of battery.

He forgot to charge his charger when he got back, so he went into his room to get it. He rummaged through his luggage but couldn't find it.

Su Ye remembered that she had forgotten to bring her charger back from the Mushroom House.

He rummaged through the drawer to see if there was a spare charger.

Su Ye searched every corner but couldn't find a spare charger. Now, she wanted Yang Mi to buy her one, but she couldn't get in touch with her.

"Dad, what are you looking for?" Xi Xi, who was playing the piano freely in her room, asked curiously as she watched Su Ye rummaging through the drawers.

"Dad's phone is dead, let's find a charger," Su Ye said, sitting down next to Xi Xi.

Xi Xi looked thoughtful: "Is your phone out of battery?"

Then, Xixi's eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "Dad, I remember you still have a cell phone."

"Hmm? There's another phone?" Su Ye asked疑惑地, "Xi Xi, do you remember where Daddy puts his other phone?"

Xi Xi glanced around the room, a look of reminiscence on her face, and finally her gaze settled on the top drawer of a small cabinet next to the piano.

Xi Xi stretched out her little finger and pointed to the drawer on top of the cabinet, saying, "Daddy, the phone seems to be over there."

Su Ye walked to the cabinet, opened the drawer, and had to stand on a stool to see what was inside.

The drawer design of this cabinet is really unreasonable and strange...

But it was precisely because of its strangeness and irrationality that Su Ye became filled with curiosity.

The drawer was opened, and sure enough, there was a cell phone inside!

This phone looks plain and unpretentious, with an all-black body, but the feel of it in my hand is completely different from my other phone.

Su Ye pressed the power button, and the phone lit up.

This phone probably hasn't been used in a long time, but it still has power.

What is the password for cell phone 973?

Su Ye frowned. He couldn't remember the password at all. Just as he was looking at his phone and thinking,

The phone's password lock was automatically unlocked!

This... is a phone with facial recognition!

Su Ye immediately opened his phone's contacts. His previous phone had no one else besides Bai Xue.

However, this phone has quite a few people in its contacts!

The first person in my contacts has the following nickname: 0101258!

Su Ye frowned. What did this string of numbers mean? Who was it?

He clicked on the number; the phone number appeared to be from overseas.

Su Ye didn't look closely; he continued looking at the other people in his contacts.

……

What kind of weird notes are these? They're way too casual...

Su Ye couldn't help but complain.

Chapter 81 My daughter wasn't born from just one person!

Apart from the contacts, there is no other information on this phone.

Looking at the names in his contacts, Su Ye fell into deep thought, wondering why he had left his phone here in the first place.

Just as Su Ye was still thinking, the doorbell rang.

"Dad, someone's ringing the doorbell," Xixi reminded him from the side.

Su Ye finally came to his senses, touched Xi Xi's little hand, and then walked towards the living room.

However, when Su Ye arrived in the living room, Mengmeng, who had been reading a comic book on the sofa, had already walked towards the door.

"Who is it?" Mengmeng asked in her childish voice.

A woman's voice, deliberately altered, rang out from outside the door: "Guess who I am?"

Mengmeng turned to look at Su Ye as he approached and asked for help, "Daddy, I can't touch it..."

Mengmeng tiptoed, her little hands barely touching the bottom of the doorknob.

Su Ye smiled and walked over, picked up Mengmeng, and as she grasped the doorknob, asked again, "Who are you?"

“I am… the Monkey King of the Water Curtain Cave of Flower and Fruit Mountain!” Yang Mi replied with a smile from outside the door. She recognized the voice inside as Mengmeng’s.

"The Monkey King!" Mengmeng looked at Su Ye with shining eyes: "Daddy, it's the Monkey King!"

Su Ye said with a smile, "Then open it and see if it's the Monkey King."

Mengmeng opened the door full of anticipation and saw Yang Mi standing at the door carrying large and small bags.

"Auntie?" Mengmeng glanced at Yang Mi, then looked around towards the door. "Where's the Monkey King?"

Mengmeng discovered that there was no one else outside the door except Yang Mi, and said disappointedly, "The Monkey King is Auntie in disguise, right?"

Yang Mi smiled and said, "The Monkey King is an aunt in disguise, but Mengmeng might see the Monkey King on TV in the future."

"On TV? Really?" Mengmeng asked in surprise.

“However, that depends on whether your father is willing or not,” Yang Mi said to Su Ye.

Mengmeng also looked at Su Ye: "Daddy?"

Su Ye, being watched by the two people, one big and one small, said, "Come in first, we'll talk later..."

"By the way, why couldn't I get through to you when I called you earlier?" Yang Mi walked in, looking around the room.

"My phone's dead, and I forgot the charger at the production crew's office," Su Ye said, closing the door.

"Oh... I thought you had changed your mind." Yang Mi put her things on the ground, looked around the house, and then asked softly, "Did you live here before?"

Su Ye nodded: "What groceries did you buy?"

"I bought everything you said, the things Mengmeng, Xuanxuan, and Xixi like. Hey? What about Xuanxuan and Xixi?" Yang Mi asked, holding Mengmeng's hand.

"Xuanxuan is drawing on the balcony, and Xixi is playing the piano in her room." Su Ye brought the groceries Yang Mi bought into the kitchen.

"Then Mengmeng... she'll just play..." Yang Mi followed Su Ye into the kitchen with some worry.

Su Ye turned to look at Yang Mi: "You're having a good time. Mengmeng likes listening to stories, and I think the book is pretty good."

“You taught Xuanxuan and Xixi to draw, play the violin, and play the piano, and Mengmeng…” Yang Mi’s voice trailed off towards the end, as if she felt that Su Ye was biased towards Xuanxuan and Xixi.

Su Ye finally understood what Yang Mi was thinking.

“Xuanxuan and Xixi also like these things, so I taught them a little. I don’t usually let them practice; they usually go to draw or practice on their own,” Su Ye explained.

"Mengmeng doesn't like these overly artistic things; she prefers things that are imaginative, fresh, and fantastical."

Yang Mi pouted, looking a little aggrieved, making Su Ye feel like he had done something to her.

"Girls should be artistic and elegant."

Su Ye looked at Yang Mi and asked, "Whose fault is it that Mengmeng doesn't have the artistic talent to study quietly?"

"This...strange, are you saying it's because I have no artistic talent?" Yang Mi said with an expression that refused to take the blame, "Our daughter wasn't born by me alone...it's not like she doesn't have your genes..."

“Xuanxuan and Xixi have my genes, which proves that mine is fine. By process of elimination, whose genes are problematic?” Su Ye calmly retorted.

Yang Mi: "..."

“My Mengmeng is cute, smart, and loves reading. She’ll definitely excel in her studies in the future! That’s just like me!” Yang Mi immediately listed Mengmeng’s good points.

"Heh." Su Ye chuckled softly.

Yang Mi sensed a strong doubt in the laughter and retorted, "I was a top student at Beijing No. 1 High School, okay? I got into Beijing Film Academy with the highest score in my major, okay!"

"Oh? First in your major at Beijing Film Academy, that's impressive." Su Ye raised an eyebrow and replied, "Yang Mi, now that you mention it, I realize you're a student at Beijing Film Academy. Please show me some respect in the future and don't call me by my first name."

"If I don't call you Su Ye, do you expect me to call you teacher...?"

Yang Mi gave her a 'you wish!' look: 'Why should I... call you teacher?'

"I'm a teacher at Beijing Film Academy, and you're a student there. Have you ever heard of the saying 'respect your teachers'?"

"Heh, you're not my teacher." Yang Mi replied haughtily, tilting her delicate face up. "Besides, you're younger than me! You expect me to call you teacher..."

Yang Mi's expression seemed to say, 'Don't you know your place? I'm calling you teacher!'

"Not calling?"

"Impossible!" Yang Mi replied firmly. In the past, she might have hesitated when facing Su Ye, but now, she stood tall.

"Then tonight, you tell Mengmeng yourself, good luck." Su Ye used his 'secret weapon'.

Yang Mi looked at Su Ye with a resentful expression: "Why...why are you like this..."

"Alright, aren't you going to cook for Mengmeng? Please." Su Ye said, making room for Yang Mi.

"Please help me~~" Yang Mi looked at Su Ye with a pitiful expression.

Yang Mi began to use her pitiful tactics, looking at Su Ye with a weak expression.

Su Ye stretched and pretended to walk towards the living room.

"Hey, Teacher Su..." Yang Mi called out reluctantly. (Nono Zhao)

Su Ye turned around and asked, "What? I didn't hear you clearly."

Yang Mi then said with a 'smile', "Teacher Su, could you please help me out?"
