199 Love Trap 7 (1/2)
”Mother, did you know Qingyan bought over a martial arts boot camp academy just because An Xiaoning signed up for it? Is he crazy!?! They're already divorced, why is he doing this!”
”So what if he did? Must you really make such a big fuss out of it? It would be great if he actually manages to woo Xiaoning back,” old Mrs. Jin said calmly, not appearing too surprised.
”Mother, An Xiaoning was the one who strongly insisted on the divorce. Why would she agree to get back together with him? This matter has already been reported on the news. Others are just going to criticize and mock him for being so desperate. He's such an outstanding individual in all aspects, why does he have to shortchange himself by clinging onto that An Xiaoning!?!” Mrs. Jin roared in anger, feeling extremely outraged.
”That just goes to show how excellent Xiaoning is. We were the ones who let her down, don't shift the blame on her. If it weren't for that mishap, their child would almost be born by now. What a pity,” old Mrs. Jin said with a long sigh.
”There are plenty of women out there who are willing to bear Qingyan's child. Ms. Lin gave me a call today. In fact, I find her to be a really good catch in almost every aspect. It's a pity Qingyan doesn't fancy her.” Mrs. Jin then turned to Auntie Zhang and said, ”What did he say?”
”He said he would be home during dinner time in the evening.”
Mrs. Jin picked up her teacup and finished all the green tea in one gulp.
She continued to sit in the living room until Jin Qingyan returned.
”I don't wish to explain any further regarding this matter. It's my freedom to do whatever I want. I purchased the academy using my own assets anyway,” said Jin Qingyan.
Mrs. Jin pounded her chest and exclaimed in frustration, ”Do you really think I'm being concerned about that? Qingyan, you two are already divorced. Can't you just give other girls a chance?”
”I can't.”
”You want to marry her again? Is that so? Tell me quick,” Mrs. Jin questioned.
”Yes, I want to marry her again. My decision is final, no one can change my mind.”
”What if she never agrees?”
”One day, she will come back to me,” he said with utmost confidence, as if he was the person who loved her most in the world.
”But you were so quick to give in when your grandma and I insisted you marry An Xiaoning back then, even though you were so fond of Chi Rui'er. Qingyan, just marry another girl instead. Feelings can be nurtured, and you'll definitely fall in love with her in due time after knowing each other for long enough. By then, you'll realize that An Xiaoning matters as little to you as Chi Rui'er did. Okay?”
”But too bad, I don't think any other woman is good enough for me other than An Xiaoning.”
”…”
”You're out of your mind,” Mrs. Jin gasped in disbelief.
”Maybe I am. I'll be making a move first, I won't be having dinner here,” said Jin Qingyan as he rose from his seat.
He then proceeded to leave before Mrs. Jin could even respond.
Having arrived at the villa, he alighted from the car, only to be greeted by Maomao, who was nibbling and rubbing its face on his legs affectionately.
Jin Qingyan bent forward to pet its fur before opening the car door of the backseat. ”Hop on, we'll go look for your Mom.”
The spiritual and almost human-like Maomao then put a leg forward and launched its chubby self onto the backseat in one fluid motion.
Jin Qingyan grinned at the adorable sight before him and closed the door before getting into the driver's seat. He then set out again, though he had only arrived home not long ago.
He drove along the roads towards his destination.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the boot camp academy, Jin Qingyan alighted from the car while Maomao followed closely beside him and trudged along with sturdy steps.
However, Jin Qingyan did not enter immediately, due to the fact that there was an ongoing training session. Instead, he stood watch by the window and waited 'til the intermission to enter.
Maomao's eyes lit up brightly at the sight of An Xiaoning and leaped forward towards her. Before she could even react, An Xiaoning was shot by Maomao, who pounced on her.
