Chapter 514: Chapter 513: He will make Xiaolang understand his meaning (second update)
I wonder if Qin Keqin can see it.
Yin Qin also noticed it.
No man would willingly accompany a woman like this, unless he was genuinely interested in her.
Luo Xiaolang and Joe had left the Yin Family Villa early because the little tiger had fallen asleep.
Everyone was watching the backs of the two men leaving.
Qin Keqin, who initially maintained a pleasant expression, lapsed into a moment of irritation after Luo Xiaolang left. She said, “It’s late, you all should leave soon. I’m tired, and I need to rest.”
Yin Qin was utterly speechless at his mother’s attitude.
Ji Baixin was incredibly tolerant towards everyone this evening. She said, “Okay, Yin Qin and I will come back more often.”
“Let’s discuss this later.” Qin Keqin made a half-hearted refusal, and then stopped with a warning, “If you’re really coming, make a call in advance. It would be awkward if you come at an inconvenient time, like today.”
“Okay,” Ji Baixin nodded.
Qin Keqin couldn’t figure out why Ji Baixin had had such a change of heart, but she thought that Yin Qin and Ji Baixin needed to have a good relationship. A good relationship would not affect Luo Xiaolang’s love life, so she didn’t deliberately try to embarrass Ji Baixin any further. She said, “It’s late, you should go back and rest.”
Tossing off this comment, she and Yin Bin went upstairs.
Ji Baixin watched the backs of Qin Keqin and Yin Bin and couldn’t help but let out a little chuckle. “Your mom really doesn’t like me much.”
“It’s just the beginning, it’ll get better later.” Yin Qin comforted.
“I know but I still feel a bit disappointed. But it doesn’t matter since we’re together, I will surely accept your family in due course.”
“Baixin, your change surprised me,” said Yin Qin sincerely.
“That’s because I genuinely feel you have been good to me.”
Yin Qin faintly smiled.
He thought, this was all he needed.
If he could live harmoniously with Ji Baixin, even if their relationship was not as emotional as before, they could still carry on like this.
He owed Ji Baixin too much, and he would repay all this with his lifetime.
Ji Baixin willingly moved into Yin Qin’s arms.
Yin Qin tightly held Ji Baixin.
The two of them appeared to be very intimate.
For some reason, Luo Xiaolang always walked in on Yin Qin and Ji Baixin during their intimate moments.
She didn’t know if this was just a coincidence or if the couple always acted so affectionately when no one else was around.
Now she finally understood that this was how a couple interacted, not like her past relationship with Yin Qin.
Her appearance made Yin Qin and Ji Baixin a bit awkward all over again.
The two silently let go of each other.
Luo Xiaolang explained, “I didn’t do it on purpose, the little tiger’s bottle was forgotten.”
Just after feeding, she forgot to put it in the mummy bag.
It was only upon leaving that she remembered.
Little Tiger was particular about his bottle. If the nipple was switched, he might stop feeding altogether.
She had left and then turned right back around.
And came back to find them.
Yin Qin and Ji Baixin watched as Luo Xiaolang quickly took the bottle and left.
She seemed genuinely afraid of disturbing them.
Ji Baixin said, “We are always seen, I don’t know why we are so unlucky.”
Yin Qin was so upset, he even put on a fake smile.
He suddenly thought that in all the time he’d been with Luo Xiaolang, they never behaved like a couple the way he and Ji Baixin did.
“We should leave now and go home. We have work tomorrow.” Ji Baixin suggested.
Yin Qin nodded.
Yin Qin had had some drinks that night, so Ji Baixin was the one to drive.
Yin Qin sat in the passenger seat, somewhat silent.
Ji Baixin could feel his gloomy mood, she asked, “What’s wrong? You don’t seem to be in high spirits.”
“It’s nothing. Maybe I’m just feeling a bit tired,” Yin Qin replied indifferently.
“Are you thinking about the little tiger?” Ji Baixin asked.
Yin Qin paused.
No.
Yet, mentioning Little Tiger at this moment, he did feel a sense of sadness.
Little Tiger had already started rejecting him.
Little Tiger had already started treating him as a stranger.
His throat bobbed with emotion.
Ji Baixin clearly sensed Yin Qin’s mood, she suggested, “Have you ever thought about bringing Little Tiger back to be with you?”
Yin Qin reacted strongly, swiftly turning to stare at Ji Baixin.
When she got home, she was all smiles.
Upon hearing her opening the door, Ji Baijian, with Tank in tow, met her at the door only to find her in a good mood.
“What good thing has happened to my wife today?” Ji Baijian asked.
Song Zhizhi’s smile was radiant, “I saw Luo Xiaolang with a man.”
“Hmm?”
“A man who looks a hundred times better than Yin Qin.”
“Looks are not everything for a man.”
“There’s no man worse than Yin Qin for Xiaolang in this world. So any man would be better than Yin Qin and by a lot!”
“...” He couldn’t argue with that logic.
“I wonder if there will be a follow-up.” Song Zhizhi was even more excited than Luo Xiaolang.
Ji Baijian, despite his advanced years, didn’t quite understand women.
It seemed like at any time, gossip was an indispensable part of their lives.
He had to disturb his wife’s enjoyment, and asked, “How is Ye Wenhan?”
“Are you afraid I can’t beat him?”
“No, I trust my wife.”
“I’ve gotten pretty much all the evidence I can get.” Song Zhizhi said, smiling.
“Then let’s choose an auspicious date to expose him.”
“...” Choose an auspicious date?
Ji Baijian, being the man he was, was pretty ruthless.
She suddenly seemed serious, “Do you know who’s been helping me with all this?”
“Who?” Ji Baijian seemed interested.
“Song Zhidao.” Song Zhizhi stressed every word.
Ji Baijian nodded slightly.
“In Commercial Management, apart from my younger brother, I don’t trust anyone, not even my father. Also, after so many years of Ye Taiting’s reign in Commercial Management, almost all the people are theirs. I dare not use them casually. Hence, I have to rely on my younger brother. I reasoned that Ye Wenhan would have people closely monitoring me, so it was risky for me to take action myself. I didn’t expect my younger brother to be so clever. In just over a week, he helped me get the evidence of Ye Wenhan embezzling public funds and shortchanging on the material.”
“Your younger brother is pretty good.” Ji Baijian praised generously.
“What I mean is, if you take over Commercial Management in the future, can my younger brother help you there?”
“Why not?” Ji Baijian countered.
A smile crept onto the corner of Song Zhizhi’s mouth.
“For me, to have a trusted person by my side, why not?”
“Do you trust my younger brother?”
“My wife thinks I shouldn’t?”
“No, it’s just that you don’t trust people easily.” Because he was too cunning.
“My wife is correct. But I trust my wife and anyone related to my wife.”
That didn’t sound like a cheesy romantic statement, but it touched her coming out from old Ji Baijian.
After being moved, she really wanted to bear a son for Ji Baijian.
So she made her move then and there.
“My wife...” Though his words seemed filled with resistance, yet the next second he became “impolite”.
...
The next day.
Song Zhizhi was sitting at Commercial Management.
Yes.
She made a mistake.
The mistake was that she shouldn’t have been so forward.
The consequences were terrible.
Today, she could barely keep her back straight.
Sitting in her office, she felt as uncomfortable as if she were sitting on pins and needles.
Outside her office door, her younger brother knocked and came in.
Song Zhizhi quickly tried to sit up straight, looking very serious.
With one look, Song Zhidao noticed the fatigue in his sister’s eyes and couldn’t help laughing, “Brother-in-law is a handsome man indeed, but my sister, you should take it easy.”
“Song Zhidao!” Song Zhizhi flared up.
Once flared up, her back pain worsened.
Song Zhidao couldn’t help but burst out laughing, “Sis, my brother-in-law looks like someone who isn’t prone to excessive indulgence, but in fact, he is very... robust!”
“...” Accurate.
Song Zhizhi was quite hit by Song Zhidao’s words.
Before marrying Ji Baijian, she always thought he wasn’t good at “that.”
After marrying him, she admitted she was terribly wrong.
