900 A Million Times for You 262 (1/2)
An Xiaoning noticed the look of dismay hidden in his eyes and said with a smile, ”I was just teasing you. I'm sure you know how I feel about marriage nowadays.”
Seemingly feeling a huge sense of relief, he pulled her into his arms and said, ”Wait for me…”
”Wait for you to what?”
”Wait for me to prepare everything and make sure nothing goes wrong, wait for me to give you the confidence to marry me without any qualms. Wait for me to get rid of all the problems we might face before I make you my wife.”
He rested his chin on her head. All he ever wanted was to marry her again and give her the happiness that she deserved. However, it was not the right time yet.
Having understood his concerns, An Xiaoning smiled and said, ”Sure.”
She wondered if he believed her excuse.
She had meant every word from the bottom of her heart when she said that she wanted to marry him again.
She did not rehearse the lines in her head on purpose and instead just allowed them to roll off her tongue.
An Xiaoning had a feeling that Jin Qingyan was clear about that too.
They simply refused to expose each other's innermost thoughts.

Bu Xianxian relayed Jin Qingyan's words to her parents.
Mr. and Mrs. Bu understood his reasons for doing so.
”He's already given us so much money and gave us a roof over our heads for so long. It's more than enough. Since he's already made such a request, it's time we leave,” said Mrs. Bu.
Mr. Bu looked at his daughter and chastised, ”It must have been the way she looks now that infuriated Nick.”
”Xianxian looks great now.”
”Yes, she's so good-looking that she doesn't look like our daughter anymore. Who'd believe that we gave birth to her?” Mr. Bu sneered.
”Father, cut it out. I didn't even blame you and Mother for passing on those horrible genes to me, yet you still forbid me from changing my appearance. Everyone wants to look beautiful. Just you wait and see. I, your daughter, am definitely going to get a boyfriend now that I've become so gorgeous. However, I feel like my nose bridge is way too high and doesn't match my mouth at all,” said Bu Xianxian, staring at her reflection in the mirror.
Upon hearing her words. Mrs. Bu immediately said, ”Xianxian, you're already beautiful enough. Don't go under the knife again. I think you're getting addicted to plastic surgery. Did you forget that you initially just wanted to get your eyes altered to look like Ms. An's? Later on, you continued to have your cheekbones shaved to resemble hers too. Even your eyebrows have been embroidered to look the same, so is your nose. If the doctor hadn't said that it was impossible, you probably would have made your lips look like hers too! You've already spent so much money and become gorgeous enough. Don't go on anymore. Although you look a lot like Ms. An now, your aura is nothing like hers.”
”I'm not trying to look exactly like her either, that's so unoriginal. Besides, she and I are not biologically related anyway. It's enough for me to look 80% identical to her. Do you know how much pain I went through to look like this? My efforts have finally paid off,” Bu Xianxian said nonchalantly.
”Don't get any more plastic surgery then, you're already perfect as you are now.” Still feeling worried, Mrs. Bu warned, ”Your father and I have already had a discussion. We won't be giving you any more money.”
”That's enough, stop being so long-winded. Go pack your belongings. We'll stay in a hotel before looking for a house to move into,” Bu Xianxian said in annoyance.
”We'll go right now.”
Mr. and Mrs. Bu proceeded to pack their luggage, after which they left Wei Ni Estate without delay together with Bu Xianxian.
When they got inside the taxi, Mrs. Bu asked, ”Xianxian, do you really not harbor designs on Nick anymore?”
