nAlthough Qin Lan rarely interacted with this daughter-in-law of hers, she had still heard of her ability to cook. “Then I’ll wait for auntie to arrive before I leave. I’ll give her a few words of advice. You’ll be able to recover very quickly from your allergy if you eat the right things.”
n“Okay! Thank you, Mom.”
nSu Wan smiled sweetly.
nWith Qin Lan’s comforting words, Su Wan felt much better. After Qin Lan left, she immediately opened WeChat and blocked Bai Lian.
nSu Wan would have fallen for such a clumsy trick if she actually cared!
nJing Chen was right. Sooner or later, it would not be hers, so what was the point of thinking about that? Eating what she wanted and her happiness were the most important things!
nShe should get well first!
n…
nJing Chen brought Bai Lian to one of his villas and gave her the keys.
n“You should settle down here first. Don’t worry about family matters. I’ll help you settle them. Let me know if you need anything.”
nBai Lian smiled shyly and opened her arms to Jing Chen.
nJing Chen paused, but still went forward and she hugged him.
nThen, Bai Lian said sweetly, “Thank you, Jing Chen. Thank you for your help. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know how to face the current situation…”
n“Rest well. Don’t take my mother’s words to heart.” Jing Chen hesitated for a moment before comforting her.
nBai Lian shook her head obediently and said indifferently, “You and Su Wan are still husband and wife. She must be on her daughter-in-law’s side. I understand.”
nJing Chen nodded and said with relief, “That’s good.”
nBai Lian was really sensible.
n“By the way, give me that wedding ring. I’ll put it on for you when we get married.”
nJing Chen brought up the topic.
nIt was going to be his grandfather’s birthday soon. Even though Su Wan’s sudden call gave him a headache, he had to admit that Su Wan was right. The matter of the wedding ring could be either serious or minute, and he couldn’t be penny wise and pound foolish. If anything happened, the gains wouldn’t make up for the losses.
nAfter Bai Lian heard this, she happily took off her wedding ring and said to Lin Xiu, “Lin Xiu, bring me the box of the ring.”
nLin Xiu immediately opened her suitcase and started looking for the ring box.
nJing Chen was a little confused at how straightforward she was, she didn’t even question him. “Didn’t you say that you don’t feel insecure? Why are you giving it to me so easily?”
nBai Lian glared at him and smiled. “Since you’ve given it to me, it means that you really put me first. Aiya, you men won’t understand even if I say anything more! Anyway, I’m very happy that you’re willing to give me the wedding ring before we get married.”
n“Initially, I thought that I was going overboard. I didn’t expect you to really be willing. I knew it. You really care about me!”
nBai Lian said as she took the box from Lin Xiu. She carefully placed the ring inside and handed it to Jing Chen.
nJing Chen was very touched. He took the ring, rubbed her head, and explained, “It’s Grandpa’s birthday. I didn’t want to tell Grandpa about the divorce before that.”
nBai Lian buried her head into Jing Chen’s arms. Even now, she couldn’t bear to let go of Jing Chen. She said with certainty, “You will definitely divorce Su Wan. I know.”
nJing Chen looked at her and fell into silence.
nFinally, he rubbed her head forcefully and said, “Then I’ll go back first. Rest early.”
n“Alright!”
nWhen Jing Chen left Bai Lian’s place, it was already seven in the evening. He only sent Bai Lian to his villa after dinner with her.
nOn the way home, he received a call from Qin Lan.
n“Mom, what’s wrong?”
n“Where is it? I’ve already bought your grandfather’s gift for you guys. Come and pick it up.”
nJing Chen frowned and said in confusion, “Why did you help us buy a gift? There’s no need, Su Wan and I will go buy it.”
n“Su Wan is already sick, and you’re still letting her do whatever she wants. Come quickly! Quickly bring it back and scram. I’ll wait for you in the parking lot at Jiu Xin International Commercial Building.”
nThen, Qin Lan hung up.
nShe did not give Jing Chen any face at all. His mother had never spoken to him like this in all her years…
nAlthough she looked cold, it was just her appearance. This was the first time she had been attacking him and targeting him so frequently.
nAfter arriving, Jing Chen got into Qin Lan’s car.
nQin Lan looked at her watch. “That was quick. Are you feeling guilty now? When you’re with your little lover, do you panic when you pick up your mother’s call?”
nJing Chen pursed his lips. “Mom, did you ask me to come here just to make fun of me?”
