The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

“When I went to his room on the ninth floor, Yu Caiwei’s bodyguard who’s staying in the same suite told me that he had left. I went inside the room and saw that his clothes were no longer inside,” Xiao Yue explained.

Fang Erlan sat on the bed in shock. Is he never going to show up again?

That’s great.

But why do I still feel so flustered? 

She whipped out her mobile phone to give him a call, which went through initially. However, he switched off his mobile phone right after.

He clearly didn’t want to answer her calls.

Fang Erlan stood up and ran out of the room. At the sight of her behavior, Xiao Yue frantically yelled, “Sis Erlan, where are you going?”

Fang Erlan sprinted all the way to the elevator landing. She stood outside the elevators and asked herself, Why am I running…

Once he’s gone, there’ll be no one around to compel me against my wishes.

That’d be wonderful. 

She turned around and returned to her room. Noticing that she seemed to be troubled and frustrated, Xiao Yue began to wonder just what had happened.

“Sis Erlan…”

“…”

“Sis Erlan…”

Fang Erlan remained seated, as if she did not hear Xiao Yue at all. When Xiao Yue called her for the third time, she turned around and said to Xiao Yue, “Maybe he’s really gone this time.”

“I suppose so.”

“…”

An Xiaoning and Jin Qingyan returned to S Nation after staying in M Nation for more than two weeks.

The situation in M Nation was handed over to the newly-appointed Branch CEO.

After all, the office tower would have to be reconstructed.

The Jin Corporation had incurred only a minor net loss due to the compensatory sum paid by the DK Organization.

As soon as they reached home, they were greeted with the sight of Xiao Chenyang swimming alone in the pool.

Jin Qingyan squatted beside the pool and said, “That’s strange. What are you doing here instead of B City?”

He placed his hands on the edge of the pool and thrust himself out of the water. He then sat by the edge and said, “I won’t be going back again.”

“Why? If you’re not around, should we assign other bodyguards to Erlan?” An Xiaoning asked.

“Do as you deem fit.” He dipped his legs inside the pool and continued swinging them around in the water, causing the water to splash up.

An Xiaoning and Jin Qingyan looked at each other, finding him to be acting out of the ordinary.

“You two go ahead and chat. I’ll go inside to get some water,” said An Xiaoning, who then walked away and left the house to the two of them.

“Just what’s going on?”

“She’s marrying Yan Ge, her boyfriend.”

“Why don’t you snatch her back?”

Xiao Chenyang looked at him and said, “I don’t want to. She’s free to live the life that she wants. I’ve long gotten used to living alone anyway.”

Jin Qingyan could tell that he was trying to put on a brave front.

“Surely you can’t be thinking of waiting for her to reincarnate again so you can make it in time.”

“Sadly, that’s not what I’m thinking of.” He looked at Jin Qingyan and continued, “Frankly speaking, I really envy you and Hua Jin.”

“Shall I take you out to look for some prostitutes tonight?”

Xiao Chenyang stared at him apprehensively and asked, “You’re taking me out for prostitution? Aren’t you afraid that Hua Jin would find out?”

“I’ll take her along.”

I knew it. This wimp.

“Are you going or not?”

“I’m not interested.”

“There are plenty of women in this world who are better than Fang Erlan. Tell me, what kind of women do you fancy? Do you like cute and lolita-like ones, mature ones, or career-minded ones? I’ll get you whichever type you want. Don’t take women too seriously.”

“Yes, don’t take women too seriously. But why can’t you do it yourself?”

Jin Qingyan was at a sudden loss for words. “I… I don’t take her seriously.”

“Really? Who are you trying to fool?” Xiao Chenyang gibed.

“Yes, Xiaoning waits on me all the time. She even washes my feet for me.”

“That’s because your calf is fractured…”

“She does it on a regular basis. I’m her master and she’s my maid. You can’t spoil women. The more you pamper them, the more lawless they get,” Jin Qingyan said assertively.

“Your maid?” An Xiaoning questioned, gritting her teeth.

Jin Qingyan turned around slowly and met her eyes. He smiled wryly and said, “Didn’t you go and get some water…”

“I’ve finished drinking it. If it weren’t because of your injury, I would’ve really kicked you into the pool. Shall we go out tonight and relax together?” said An Xiaoning, who knew that he was just kidding.

Seeing how earnest they were, Xiao Chenyang agreed with a nod, “Sure.”

When they returned upstairs, An Xiaoning said to Jin Qingyan, “Why does he seem so sad to me?”

“Why couldn’t I tell?”

“You’re a careless man, you’re not sensitive at all.” An Xiaoning whipped out her mobile phone and said, “I must give Erlan a call.”

“Don’t bother, he said that Fang Erlan is getting married.”

“Getting married? I wasn’t told about it. If she was really getting married, she would definitely tell me and Yangyang first,” An Xiaoning said in bewilderment.

“I reckon she just has plans to get married.”

“No, I must ask her about it.” She then called Fang Erlan.

Fang Erlan answered very quickly, “Sis Xiaoning.”

“Erlan, how are you feeling lately? Better?”

“Yes, much better. I’ve been receiving fewer criticisms online.”

“It’s been more than half a month since we started trying to salvage your reputation and clear your name. There’ll definitely be fewer people who berate you online. However, I’ve heard that Xiao Chenyang has left your side. Has Yangyang assigned the bodyguards to you yet?”

“Yes, she has. Sis Xiaoning, where did Xiao Chenyang go?” Fang Erlan asked.

After a moment of silence, An Xiaoning asked, “Tell me first, why isn’t he with you?”

“Because…” Fang Erlan briefly explained the reason to her.

“Oh, I see. Since he’s no longer there to pester you, isn’t it good that you can now focus on filming? However, have you really decided to get married?”

“I haven’t discussed it in detail with Yan Ge yet… Sis Xiaoning, where did Xiao Chenyang go?”

“He’s at my place. I can tell that he’s in low spirits, so Qingyan and I are planning to take him out for some fun tonight. We’ll also introduce him to some girls. Once he falls in love with another girl, he’ll stop pestering you. Hence, it’ll definitely help you.”

Although Fang Erlan knew that she made sense, she somehow felt empty and at a loss for words.

“Okay, focus on filming. I’ll be hanging up now.”

“Alright.”

Jin Qingyan kissed her and said, “You’re really mean.”

“How so?”

“You claim to be helping Fang Erlan but you’re in fact helping Chenyang.”

“No, you’ve got the wrong idea about me. I’m helping them both. You see, if Erlan truly detested Xiao Chenyang, she would immediately feel relieved. However, she clearly doesn’t detest him. Otherwise, why would she remain silent? Shouldn’t she be jumping for joy? This must have agitated Erlan to a certain extent. Besides, I was just telling the truth anyway. We’re really going to take Xiao Chenyang out and introduce him to some new girls. He’s helped us out so many times. I really can’t bear to see him upset. I know he’s placed the curse of devotion on himself and won’t be able to fall in love with other women, but what’s not to like about unwinding a little?” said An Xiaoning, poking him in the forehead.
