Chapter 223: Isn’t This Too Fast?
Yuan Yuan tilted her chubby little face, a flash of confusion in her big eyes: “Cousin Aunt? What is that?”
Xie Jingyan looked at her; she was so small, only three years old.
Xie Jingyan squatted down, looking at her, his voice gentle: “She is Yuan Yuan’s mother’s older sister, so she is your aunt.”
Hearing the word “mother,” Yuan Yuan’s eyes clearly brightened a bit, but soon turned to disappointment.
She blinked her eyes and asked in a childish voice: “Does Yuan Yuan really have a mother? Is it because Yuan Yuan is not obedient that she doesn’t want Yuan Yuan anymore?”
Xie Jingyan sighed: “No, she wants Yuan Yuan’s… Wait until Yuan Yuan grows up a bit more, and she will come back.”
Yuan Yuan’s eyes suddenly reddened, she looked at Jiang Ning, her little hands twisting together, her little head lowered, her voice muffled: “Sorry, Aunt, Wanyuan Aunt said that you coming would take away Father, because I am a little oil bottle, the new mother doesn’t like me, and Father will drive me away.”
Her tears fell drop by drop to the ground, her little mouth pursed: “I only have Father now, he is the best, best, best person in this world to Yuan Yuan.”
Jiang Ning’s lips pressed tightly together, she looked at Xie Jingyan, cold intent already in her eyes: “Is this how you treat the child? Letting Su Wanyuan teach her?”
Xie Jingyan was at a loss for words: “I didn’t! I already warned her not to approach Yuan Yuan again, but sometimes I am very busy at the company, flying all over the country, I can’t always take the child with me, I live alone, no one manages household matters, so Su Wanyuan bribed the servant and often let Yuan Yuan see her.”
Jiang Ning now found Xie Jingyan more and more unpleasant: “So for so many years, you couldn’t even handle a Su Wanyuan? Why don’t you just marry her, you two are quite suitable.”
Xie Jingyan: “…”
He looked at himself still stuck at the entrance, not even inside the house, and sighed: “Can you let Yuan Yuan come in first? Her face is all frozen red.”
Jiang Ning looked down at Yuan Yuan, who was now very obedient, her eyes slightly red, curiously looking around, and when she saw Jiang Ning looking, she hurriedly lowered her head like a child who made a mistake.
Jiang Ning’s heart softened instantly.
No matter what, Yuan Yuan was only three years old, a child who knew nothing.
And… she was still Sui Tang’s child.
So where did Sui Tang go?
Jiang Ning stepped aside: “Bring her in.”
Xie Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he was glad he had asked Little Honey.
He felt that if it was a few days later, he might not even be able to see Jiang Ning’s face.
The apartment was very small, Xie Jingyan at 188 cm tall made the little house feel even more cramped after he entered.
But he said nothing and sat on the sofa in the room.
As soon as Yuan Yuan came in, she saw Tuan Tuan playing with a plush ball, her eyes lit up and she shouted: “Tuan Tuan! You are really here!”
The little blue-and-white Tuan Tuan looked up, barked once at Yuan Yuan, walked over and rubbed against Yuan Yuan’s shoes, making Yuan Yuan giggle.
Jiang Ning washed some fruit and took out the small bread she bought, stuffing one into Yuan Yuan’s hand, smiling gently at Yuan Yuan: “Yuan Yuan, can you go play in Aunt’s room with the kitten? Aunt has some things to ask… Father.”
Yuan Yuan looked up, met Jiang Ning’s gentle smile, nodded shyly with a little milky hum: “Mm-hmm.”
She bent down, clumsily picked up the kitten, and ran to the room.
After Yuan Yuan left, only the two of them remained in the living room.
Xie Jingyan sat awkwardly on the sofa.
It had been ten years since he last saw Jiang Ning; he didn’t even know how he had gotten through it.
Later, from Little Honey, he learned that during the time Jiang Ning became a soul, she had always been by his side guarding him, accompanying him to school, eating, and sleeping.
It was just that he couldn’t see her.
He thought Jiang Ning had completed the mission and taken the one hundred million away.
He had speculated about her with the greatest malice.
But he still couldn’t resist his heart throbbing for her.
Whether she was good or bad.
He still liked her.
After learning all the truth, Xie Jingyan hoped that Jiang Ning had really completed the mission and taken the one hundred million away.
Instead of exchanging the one hundred million for a wish to cure Xie He.
Jiang Ning felt a bit uneasy under Xie Jingyan’s burning gaze.
Now that the person was right in front of her, Jiang Ning’s previous intention to give up the mission reignited.
Jiang Ning’s eyes flickered; should she do it now?
Would it scare the child?
Her knife was newly bought today and hadn’t been sharpened yet.
Receiving Jiang Ning’s gaze, Xie Jingyan straightened his back a bit.
Directly in front of him was the black-screened television, which perfectly reflected his upper body, including his face.
Was he dressed okay now?
His face didn’t seem to have changed much.
Did Jiang Ning still like this face of his?
Now that he was right in front of her, should he let her complete the mission?
Cough… wouldn’t that be too fast?
Xie Jingyan quietly sized up the little house.
It was a bit cramped; would it be hard to maneuver?
Never mind… as long as she was happy.
Xie Jingyan kept a straight face, his thoughts turning wildly.
In the end, Jiang Ning still felt that it wasn’t suitable to see blood right after moving in.
She was a bit troubled; was this mission simple?
This was simply hell difficulty.
Jiang Ning felt that Little Honey had no intention of letting her live, releasing this SSS-level mission.
She sighed and muttered: “Forget it…”
Hearing this, Xie Jingyan felt as if struck by lightning.
Forget it?
Why forget it?
He looked at the television again; the reflection inside wasn’t ugly!
His face hadn’t collapsed yet! Had it already made Jiang Ning lose interest?
Xie Jingyan’s confidence suddenly took a hit.
This wasn’t going in the direction he had imagined.
And Jiang Ning saw him repeatedly looking at the television.
“Do you want to watch television?”
Xie Jingyan: “…”
Jiang Ning turned it on with the remote: “Watch it then.”
Xie Jingyan: “…”
He took a deep breath, his face still expressionless: “Don’t you have anything you want to ask?”
“Yes, where did Sui Tang and He Shang go? Why did they even abandon the child?” Jiang Ning asked.
Xie Jingyan chuckled: “I thought you really weren’t willing to admit that you are Jiang Ning.”
Jiang Ning looked at him expressionlessly and threw her ID card in front of him: “I was never Jiang Ning to begin with.”
Xie Jingyan looked at the two words Tan Qing, his eyes profound.
“After we met yesterday, who else did you see?”
Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow and smiled at him: “What does it have to do with you?”
Xie Jingyan smiled lightly: “Jiang Ning… you are still as surprising as ever.”
He thought that Jiang Ning, who came to this world alone, would seek his protection because she had no money or identity.
So after learning from Little Honey in advance that Jiang Ning was coming soon, he waited in Jin Cheng for several days.
When Jiang Ning suddenly appeared at that intersection, he saw her.
Later, he got out of the car and followed her all the way.
Finally arriving at that beef noodle restaurant she used to love the most.
Seven years ago, when the beef noodle restaurant was going to relocate, Xie Jingyan funded it to keep the shop open.
Yuan Yuan is not bad, she is only three years old, please give a vote~
