351 Son, Ism Your Father 5 (1/2)
An Xiaoning was dragged into the bedroom by him.
It was the bedroom he slept in every night, and the place where they once promised to sleep in the future.
Everywhere in the room was filled with his unique scent.
He locked the room door from the inside, and An Xiaoning was pulled by him to the bedside to sit.
”Why aren't you resisting?”
”Because I know resisting doesn't work at all.”
Jin Qingyan shrugged and grabbed her hand tightly, his face lighting up with happiness.
”Xiaoning, let's get married again, shall we?”
An Xiaoning did not answer his question, but asked instead, ”I want to see the surveillance cameras.”
”Sure, I'll bring you there right now.”
Jin Qingyan really brought her to the surveillance room. The surveillance cameras there were in perfect working condition, so they started watching the tapes from five years ago.
”Before we finish watching the surveillance footage, you are not to touch me.”
”Okay.” He felt pleased inside as he thought to himself, So after watching the surveillance footage, I could touch her?
An Xiaoning sat there watching the footage at an accelerated speed. Only when it reached the portions of him at home did she look at it more slowly and carefully.
In the end, she realized from the surveillance footage that he treated Gu Xiaoning exceptionally well.
After watching for a very long time, they only finished going through two years' worth of footage. Throughout this time period, other than holding Gu Xiaoning's hand, he indeed did not do anything beyond that.
They did not even pause to fill up their stomachs and sat there watching from noon to night.
And finally, they finished watching all five years' worth of surveillance footage.
She was deeply touched from watching it. For a man to stick by the boundaries for so long, it was indeed not easy.
She knew that the reason for Gu Xiaoning's existence was indeed because of herself.
Originally, she had thought that her position in his heart could easily be replaced. But now, it turned out that it wasn't the case.
Arriving at this conclusion, An Xiaoning felt that although she had wasted five years that could have been spent with him, it also helped to confirm the fact that he did indeed love her.
This time wasted was not in vain, it seemed. After all, wasn't the proof of time a more precious thing?
Having finished watching the surveillance footage, her sleepiness had reached its peak and her stomach was rumbling in hunger since she had not eaten any of the food he brought throughout.
”I'm hungry.”
Jin Qingyan held her hand. ”Come, let's go and eat.”
She then followed him downstairs.
While she had not said anything to Auntie Chen when she saw her yesterday, An Xiaoning stood at the entrance of the kitchen and looked at Auntie Chen, who was busy in the kitchen. She greeted her, ”Auntie Chen.”
”Hey…” Auntie Chen turned to her and replied with a grin, ”Food will be ready soon, you should sit and wait first.”
”Umm.”
Sitting before the dining table, Jin Qingyan asked, ”So, you've seen the surveillance footage. It proves my innocence, right?”
”There's no traces of it in the surveillance footage indeed. But who could know if you did anything on the car, or somewhere outside?”
”…” Jin Qingyan was dumbfounded. ”Then I have no way of proving my innocence anymore. However, the one in my heart, I'm sure you know very well. Xiaoning, you're usually very smart, why is it when it comes to important things, you become muddle-headed?”
”This just proves that, in relationships, women are always the party that can't withstand hurt.”
”I'm the one who can't withstand the hurt, okay? All these things that happened are like a dream to me. This sort of dream is one that I've had so many times. But when I wake up, what I always faced was the crude reality.”
An Xiaoning then reached out to touch his hand. This move made Jin Qingyan's heart flutter. He gazed at her longingly.
”From now on, it won't be a dream anymore.”
Jin Qingyan got up and pulled her forward by her hand, forcing a kiss onto her lips across the table. Even when he kissed her, his body was shaking slightly.
An Xiaoning did not move and allowed him to act as he wished.
It was just a kiss, but An Xiaoning flashed her first smile to him since they reunited.
Auntie Chen stood by the kitchen door, genuinely happy for them.
On the dining table was all the favorite dishes she used to love.
They still tasted like the same old flavors that she enjoyed.
After they finished eating, An Youqing woke up.
”Mommy, good morning.”
”Umm, good morning. Come and eat.” She waved at him, beckoning him to come.
An Youqing sat beside her and gazed at Jin Qingyan, who was full of smiles, then turned to his own mother. He was in utter confusion. ”Mommy, what's with him?”
