355 Son, Ism Your Father 9 (1/2)
After getting used to it a bit, Mrs. Jin could not help but sigh emotionally. She had actually become someone's grandmother all of sudden.
”Qingyan, you have to meddle with your father's matter. If he finds someone around his age, I don't have anything to say about that. But he's with Chi Rui'er, will that do? Isn't it embarrassing?”
Jin Qingyan commented to her instead, ”The two of you have no right to criticize each other. Don't bother about this matter anymore.”
Mrs. Jin persuaded her son, ”Son, Mother is just thinking about you, okay? If this gets on the news, you'll be the one who loses face. It'll be the company's reputation that will be tarnished.”
Jin Qingyan knew that if this matter about his father were to get out, the ugliness would reflect on him. He didn't care if his mother had other intentions either and replied, ”I know about this matter already now. If there's nothing else, then go back.”
”Alright, I'll be going back then.”
Mrs. Jin turned around to leave.
Seeing her figure slowly disappear past the doorway, An Xiaoning said to her son, ”Go and play with the others.”
”Umm. I'll go then, Mommy.” An Youqing merrily skipped off to play.
Jin Qingyan folded one hand into his pocket and glanced at An Xiaoning. ”What do you think about my father's matter?”
”I don't have any opinions. I just wanted to say that your family is really a mess. Hopefully, you didn't inherit any of your parents' genes.”
Jin Qingyan beamed in amusement. ”Of course not, haven't I proved it clearly enough?”
An Xiaoning commented idly, ”If Chi Rui'er enchants your father so well that he swoons over her, and your father marries her, won't she become your stepmother?”
”Fat hope.” Jin Qingyan sniggered. ”It's true indeed that if you don't eliminate someone, they'll rise again. I'll make a trip back there now, do you want to come with me?”
An Xiaoning shook her head. ”No, I don't really want to see Chi Rui'er. You go.”
”Let's go together. You don't want to see our son have such a young step-grandmother, do you?”
An Xiaoning saw the glare in his ferocious gaze. Since it made sense, she replied, ”Alright. I'll go there with you then.”
The two drove to the old Jin residence.
Upon seeing the both of them return together, the new butler went forward and greeted, ”Young Sir, you're back.”
”Is my father at home?”
”Yes, he just returned.”
”Umm. Is he alone?”
The butler was slightly hesitant, but still responded frankly, ”No, Ms. Chi is with him.”
”How long has it been?”
”They just came back.”
”I meant, how long have they been together?” His originally warm gaze instantly turned cold as ice.
”For a very… very long time already. I can't remember.”
”Then why didn't you call to tell me?”
The butler was put in an awkward situation. ”Old Master didn't let me tell you.”
Jin Qingyan stopped in his tracks, looking at the butler, ”You just stay here, we'll go in.”
”Yes, Young Sir.”
After going through the doorway, they found it was completely silent and empty in the living room.
Jin Qingyan held An Xiaoning's hand as they headed towards Mr. Jin's bedroom together. Before they entered, they heard a voice from inside. It was Chi Rui'er's voice.
