69 He Was Jealous! (2/2)
He snapped back into reality when he could not continue imaging it further. He began to wonder if he would become hysterical, should the scenes in his head come true.
”Sir…” Jin Qingyan was startled at the sudden sound of Fan Shixin's voice.
After getting a grip on himself, he turned around to look at him and asked, ”What's the matter?”
”Why are you standing here? Get inside.”
”Who said I was going to?” he said with a shrug and placed his hands behind him, while Fan Shixin followed beside him.
”You think that coach is not bad too, huh? He's received a lot of awards. I hired him immediately after Young Madam got me to find her one,” said Fan Shixin.
Jin Qingyan stopped in his tracks and said with a squint, ”You're the one who hired him?”
”Mhm, I was the one who found him,” answered Fan Shixin.
With a faint smile, Jin Qingyan suggested, ”Shixin, I haven't seen you work out in a while. Go run thirty laps around our yard.”
Fan Shixin was momentarily stunned as his face turned stiff. ”Sir, are you kidding?” said an appalled Fan Shixin.
”I'm not, hurry and go.”
'Yes…” Fan Shixin was filled with immense regret about his decision to tell him about it. Judging from his reaction, Jin Qingyan was definitely jealous, without a doubt!
Jin Qingyan stopped straightening his back and slowed down his pace. Before he even realized, he had arrived back at the entrance of the hot spring.
He headed in straight away.
An Xiaoning pretended not to notice that he was approaching. Meanwhile, he removed all his clothes and dived straight into the pool with just his underwear on.
Hit by the huge splash of water, An Xiaoning wiped the water off her face with her hand and snapped, ”Can't you dive in from that side instead?”
”But you're here, aren't you?” he said firmly, as if he had every reason to.
An Xiaoning ignored him and continued to swim.
Jin Qingyan began swimming in backstroke and soaked in the hot spring.
He stayed inside the pool throughout the entire course of An Xiaoning's two-hour lesson. After the lesson ended, the coach left.
The couple was then left alone in the massive pool.
An Xiaoning's legs were sore from soaking in the pool for an extended period of time, and thus, she decided to get out. Just as she was getting ready to get out of the pool, he stopped her by grabbing her arm forcefully as he called her name, ”An Xiaoning.”
”Yes?”
”What do you think of this coach?”
”He's pretty good, very responsible and great at teaching. Hmm… he's brilliant in every aspect. I've also realized that there is an abundance of outstanding men in this world, from all walks of life and types of profession. I guess I won't have to worry about being left on the shelf, if we ever get a divorce,” An Xiaoning teased, grinning from ear to ear.
”You're thinking of getting a divorce?”
”That'll depend on your performance.”
He inched forward and held her tightly in his arms. He glared at her and said, ”Try getting a divorce, if you dare.”
She looked down with her chin up. ”I'm all game for it. Did he forget about the wish he had promised to grant me? Besides, there's no way he can reject it,” An Xiaoning thought to herself.
Seeing that she refused to speak, he grasped her chin and stared deeply into her eyes. ”Say something.”
”What's there to say? Haven't I already said that it'll depend on how you behave? Jin Qingyan, there's nothing in this world that I wouldn't dare to do. I have my boundaries, don't try to push past it,” An Xiaoning warned while maintaining her composure.
