608 The Secret About the Past 226 (1/2)
”Seriously speaking, your Sis' dance performance tonight was way too sensual and racy.”
Mei Yangyang glared at him and questioned, ”Were you enticed too?”
”Of course not,” Long Tianze blurted without hesitation. ”You're the only woman in this world who can entice me. No one else has the ability to attract me, alright? But Qingyan looked so cross tonight.”
”If he can canoodle pretty girls, why can't my Sis be allowed to dance with a hunk? They're both free and single now. No one is to restrict them,” Mei Yangyang retorted.
”What a shame… You have a point though. I wonder if he registered what you said earlier on,” said Long Tianze, clutching the steering wheel.
”It's up to him to listen to me. I've already said what I should.”
”…”
A deafening silence filled the air in the other car.
Ling Ciye was behind the wheel while Jin Qingyan rode in the passenger seat with his eyes tightly shut, though it was unclear if he had fallen asleep or not.
The cars drove into Wei Ni Estate one after another.
”We're here.”
Noticing that Jin Qingyan opened his eyes immediately, Ling Ciye knew that he did not fall asleep during the journey at all.
He alighted from the car and headed straight into his mansion.
Ling Ciye parked the car at the side and followed Jin Qingyan in.
”Auntie Chen, Qingyan had a lot to drink. Please brew some hangover broth and send it to him later.”
”Alright.”
After making the necessary arrangements, Ling Ciye left.
Jin Qingyan proceeded to take a shower once he arrived upstairs.
Images of the events that took place in the Black Genie Bar tonight flashed through his mind while he stood beneath the shower head.
The proud and willful An Xiaoning seemed to have weaved herself into the crevices of his flesh and bone and had long since become a part of him.
He thought that he could break free from her after the divorce.
However, in reality, he had already been shackled to her for life and the divorce was merely a formality that served no actual purpose for him.
He heard a knocking on his door when he came out of the shower, clad in a bathrobe.
”Young Sir, here's some hangover broth.”
He opened the door and received it from her hands. ”Thank you, Auntie Chen.”
”Rest well, Young Sir.” Auntie Chen bowed and headed downstairs.
After closing the door, he downed the broth and lay down in bed.
However, he had trouble sleeping as usual.
Thus, he had no choice but to rely on sleeping pills to help send him off to dreamland.

Xiaozong refused to go anywhere else and remained at home to accompany Mei Shuangshuang.
Mei Shuangshuang realized that she was feeling sleepy and lethargic every single day and would spend most of her time sleeping, as if she could never get enough rest no matter how much she slept.
She was not born yesterday and knew that something must have gone amiss.
She woke up in the middle of the night to find that the man beside her was still sound asleep.
Mei Shuangshuang heard a notification tone from a messaging platform. She reached for his mobile phone, which was lying on the headboard, and opened the new message he had received. She immediately flew into an uncontrollable rage the moment she scrolled upwards to view his chat history.
Xiaozong had been having extremely flirtatious conversations with other girls.
Feeling betrayed, Mei Shuangshuang proceeded to check his other message history, after which she immediately switched on the lights and shook Xiaozong to wake him up.
