Qin Huimin continued, "… That's just how I am. I don't like to beat around the bush. I just wanted to tell Miss Leng that Fan Gang promised me that in two years, when Xiao Yan graduates from England, they will get engaged. I don't know what's going on between you and Fan Gang, but I know that he's a sensible child. Miss Leng, we're both women. I don't want to tell you that my son is in an ambiguous relationship with you and that he's the one toying with your feelings. No, my son isn't that kind of person. It's precisely because he isn't that kind of person that I want to make things clear to you. Miss Leng, we've worked so hard to get to where we are today. It hasn't been easy. Xiao Yan is still young, but in my opinion, she's the most suitable wife for Fan Gang. She's very obedient and sensible. Of course, people tend to be vulgar. Xiao Yan's family is also very good. I believe that an innocent girl like her will only benefit Fan Gang if she becomes my daughter-in-law. I only have one son. Twenty years ago, I endured so much pressure and suffered so many hardships. I was even banished from England for so many years, but I was willing to do it. Today, he's finally successful in his career. It's all because of his ability that he's able to stand at such a high position. However, as his mother, how can I be completely at ease? "
"Miss Leng … as an elder, for the sake of my son's lifelong happiness and future, I'm begging you …"
Xin Yu's breath caught. Qin Huimin's last two words had given her too much pressure. She had no choice but to raise her eyes. Her clear eyes were bloodshot because she had been suppressing some kind of emotion. It was as though all the grievances and helplessness were written in them. Qin Huimin ignored her and abruptly got up. Almost in an instant, she knelt in front of Xin Yu with a thud …
Xin Yu: "…"
After about five seconds, Xin Yu finally reacted. Qin Huimin's kneeling had caught her completely off guard. She had no choice but to kneel down with a thud. She didn't even know where to put her hands. She choked and finally had no choice but to say, "M-Mrs. Qin, please don't do this. I beg you, please get up. Don't do this … I really don't know what to do with you. Mrs. Qin, if you have anything to say, please get up, get up … "
"… Miss Leng, I am very grateful that you came to see me alone today. And I know that you didn't tell the Fan Gang. I know that you are a reasonable girl. No matter how your marriage with Yihan is, you really can't be with the Fan Gang. You know that, right? At that time, I begged you. I know that when it comes to matters of the heart, outsiders really have no right or qualification to criticize anything, but Fan Gang is my son. I really can't turn a blind eye to it. "
"… Mrs. Qin …"
"Miss Leng, if you don't agree to it today, I won't get up."
"…"
Xin Yu's hands, which were grabbing onto Qin Huimin's sleeves, fell dejectedly to her sides. She bit her trembling lips. The tip of her heart felt like it was being stabbed by countless knives. This was a heartache that Xin Yu had never felt before. It wasn't just knives. It was like a hammer hammering her fragile heart again and again. Her whole body hurt, even breathing hurt.
Every word that came out of her mouth seemed to use up all the strength in her body. "… Mrs. Qin, what do you want me to do?"
Qin Huimin raised her head. She reached out and gently grabbed Xin Yu's hand. It was really very gentle, but Xin Yu felt pain. Perhaps there wasn't a single part of her body that didn't hurt. She heard Qin Huimin say, "… Miss Leng, leave the Fan Gang. You won't have a happy ending with him. I only have one son, I really can't watch him throw away everything."
She already knew the result. Even if Qin Huimin didn't say it, she knew what she was going to say.
But when she suddenly heard it, she still felt terrible.
"… Mrs. Qin, I-I've actually always been talking about a divorce with Lu Yihan. I …" She didn't know why, but she was panicking and confused, so she really wanted to prove something. She had once taken the first step and accepted Qin Fangang, but now that she had met his mother, she was against it. She also wanted to fight for it. She was a little anxious, and her breath was a little unsteady. "… I-I've really always been fighting for a divorce with Lu Yihan. Our marriage is also … emotionless. Mrs. Qin, I really … I really, really like him … "
"Miss Leng, what are you trying to say? Do you really like the Fan Gang? "
"…"
"Have you ever thought about what a man like the Fan Gang needs? Let's not talk about whether your relationship with him is true love. Even if it is, it's still an unrequited love. Do you know that? Miss Leng, don't talk to me about love. You and he don't belong in the same world, so you can't afford to love each other. "
"…"
"… I won't stay in City D for too long, but I really don't want you to have any more entanglements with the Fan Gang. Miss Leng, if one day you have a child and your child is in the same situation as the Fan Gang, will you remain indifferent? I'm indeed very selfish, but that's my son. I'm kneeling before you today because I hope you can understand my feelings. "
…
The tears that Xin Yu had been holding back finally fell. She knelt there like a helpless child, but she didn't dare to cry out loud. It was as if there was a rock stuck in her throat, and it was really uncomfortable.
It was as if someone had reached into her heart and was going to gouge out half of it …
Mu Chenchu held his phone and couldn't sit still.
It seemed like it had been almost two hours, right? It was almost time to get off work. Why hadn't Xin Yu called him? Did she really have endless things to say to Qin Fangang's mother?
How was that possible? She wasn't stupid. Qin Fangang's mother was obviously very aggressive. Now, she was only worried that Xin Yu would be at a disadvantage. Her personality wasn't too gentle, but Mu Chenchu knew very well that Xin Yu couldn't be sharp-tongued when it came to Qin Fangang's mother.
Under such circumstances, Xin Yu was already worried that she would lose if she went to the appointment alone. What if Qin Huimin did something to her …
Mu Chenchu didn't dare to think about it. He gripped his phone tightly with both hands. After thinking about it, he felt that it was better to give her a call first.
As soon as he slid open the mobile phone screen, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder. Mu Chen Chu was startled. He turned his face and saw the person he didn't want to see the most. He appeared in front of him.
"… Young Master Su, what are you doing here?"
Su Junyan crossed his arms and leaned his tall body lazily against the big office table. He raised one eyebrow and asked, "Can't I come?"
"Yes."
Mu Chenchu pointed at the door and said impatiently with furrowed brows, "There's no problem with you coming to the Lu Clan, but get out of my office. I don't want to see you."
Su Junyan didn't seem to mind her harsh words. His sexy thin lips curved slightly and he chuckled. "Little Chili is really heartless. The idiom 'burning the bridge after crossing the river' is quite suitable for you. When you need me, you call me and I do whatever you want me to do. When you don't need me, you tell me to get lost, right?"
"…"
Mu Chenchu was about to retort — When have I ever needed you?
But before she could say anything, Su Junyan had already put on a look of wanting to settle the score. He beat her to it and said, "Are you trying to say that you don't owe me anything? Mu Chenchu, you look like you're in your twenties. Your memory isn't very good. How could you forget so quickly? Previously, you asked me to call back the Fan Gang and even promised me that if I did, you would promise me one thing, right? "
Mu Chenchu opened her mouth. "…"
She couldn't say a word. It seemed like … she really did promise him. But the situation was urgent at that time. How could she care so much? Besides, Su Junyan hadn't looked for her these few days. She always thought that it was just a casual remark and that he had long forgotten about it. After all, he was the dignified Young Master Su. Why would he need her to promise him something?
However, Mu Chenchu wasn't someone who went back on her word. Since he had already come to collect the debt, she simply put her phone aside and stood up. "Then, Young Master Su, just say it. What do you want me to promise you?"
Su Junyan suddenly reached out and scooped Mu Chenchu into his arms. His movements were too fast. Mu Chenchu lost her balance and fell into his arms. The strong masculine aura hit her in the face. Mu Chenchu's heart thumped. She flew into a rage out of humiliation and tried to push Su Junyan away with both hands and feet.
Unfortunately, the difference in strength between a man and a woman was too great. She was no match for Su Junyan.
Mu Chenchu: "…"
"If you continue to move, I won't be polite."
The man's deep voice, with a hint of ambiguity, whispered a threat into her ear.
Mu Chenchu was so angry that her breath was stuck in her throat. But at this time, she really felt like she couldn't call for help.
Su Junyan, this bastard, when did he not do it? When they were in primary school, he had inexplicably snatched away her first kiss. She was really unlucky for eight lifetimes. After more than ten years, she actually met this god of plague again!
"… Chenchen." Su Junyan realized that he liked this form of address very much. It was very smooth. "If I want you to promise me one thing — to have a one-night stand with you, will you agree?"
Mu Chenchu's face instantly turned red. She was really angry, but she couldn't say anything. However, before she could say anything, the phone she had placed on the table rang.
Mu Chenchu quickly picked up the phone the moment it rang. However, before she could see the name displayed on the screen, Su Junyan snatched her phone away.
Mu Chenchu: "…"
She anxiously reached out to snatch it back. Seeing how anxious she was, Su Junyan refused to give it to her. The phone kept ringing. Mu Chenchu opened her mouth and shouted, "Give it back to me! Su Junyan, you bastard, give it back to me! "
"What's the hurry? Is it your four-eyed brother calling you? "
"…"
"I heard that he's contacted you, right? Are you planning to rekindle your old flame with him? "
"Su Junyan, are you crazy? Hurry up and give me back my phone. It's not someone else's call, it's Xin Yu's call. Hurry up and give it back to me! "
