The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

Staring at Song Yan, Mrs. Ling said agitatedly, “I think you’re a much better option too. You’re unmarried and childless. I too think it’s a shame that you and Ciye are no longer together. Song Yan, that’s all for today. I’ll go look for Ciye now.”

“Auntie, don’t get angry. Talk things over with him calmly.”

Mrs. Ling nodded and rushed out with her purse in hand.

Song Yan remained in her seat and stared out of the window at Mrs. Ling’s figure, a malicious look in her eyes.

She sought help from a fortune-teller to change her fate, but to no avail.

Yet, Song Yan still refused to resign herself to fate even until now.

She really did not want to.

She seemed to be able to imagine what Mrs. Ling’s confrontation with Ling Ciye would be like. In fact, she hoped that Mrs. Ling’s intervention would give him some pressure.

Things did turn out the way she hoped for them to, actually.

Mrs. Ling called Ling Ciye directly. However, he lied and claimed to be away from A City at the moment due to the fact that his wounds had yet to recover.

Mrs. Ling questioned him about his relationship with Jin Qingyue.

He told her that he would explain when they meet.

Mrs. Ling could already guess what was going on after hearing his answer.

He ended the call before she could even lash out at him.

Mrs. Ling was boiling with rage. Not only was she angry at the fact that her son was dating Jin Qingyue, but she was also furious that Jin Qingyue actually lied to her!

Since her son was not in the city, she decided to call Jin Qingyue and vent some of her anger on the latter.

Little did she expect that Jin Qingyue had switched off her mobile phone.

She had no choice but to head home, overwhelmed with exasperation.

She obviously did not know that it was her son who told Jin Qingyue to switch off her mobile phone.

Jin Qingyue put her mobile phone away and asked, “Will your mother show up here all of a sudden?”

“No, I already told her that I’m not in town.” Ling Ciye let out a long sigh and continued, “I’ll go back and come clean with her once my wounds heal in another few days.”

“Really?” Reminded of the lie she told Mrs. Ling, Jin Qingyue said, “I should’ve just told her the truth right from the start, at least she wouldn’t think that I lied to her.”

“It’s not your fault. I’ll explain it to her clearly,” Ling Ciye comforted her.

Gazing at him, Jin Qingyue said, “Brother Ciye, you seem to have changed…”

“How did I change?”

“You’ve become much manlier, but… I like it,” Jin Qingyue answered with a smile.

Ling Ciye raised his brows and asked, “So I wasn’t originally manly?”

“You were, but you’re so much manlier now.”

She climbed onto the bed naturally, just like she had been doing for the past few days. Although they had not made any actual progress despite sharing the same bed, Jin Qingyue felt that they were only one step away from progression.

After pulling the blanket over herself, Jin Qingyue leaned against the headboard and whipped out her mobile phone to find that she had received an unread text message.

It was from Shi Shaochuan.

She opened the text message to read its contents, which sounded as if he was ordering her around. “I’ll be visiting my parents’ and Grandma’s graves tomorrow. I don’t want to worry them, so come along with me and Bao’er.”

Jin Qingyue quickly replied, “What right have you got to make me visit your family’s graves just because you don’t want them to worry? I’m not going.”

“I’ll wait for you at my doorstep at eight o’clock tomorrow morning. If you don’t turn up, forget about seeing Bao’er ever again. Even if you hold the rights to her custody, what can you do if I don’t return her to you?”

Jin Qingyue immediately typed her reply: “If you don’t give her back to me, you may just raise her yourself.”

Just as she was about to send the text, Ling Ciye snatched her mobile phone away and said, “Don’t send that. What is Bao’er going to think if he shows it to her?”

“Look how shameless he is. Why must I show up with him at his family’s graves? I can’t stand the sight of him at all,” said Jin Qingyue.

Ling Ciye chuckled and said, “Listen, just go if he wants you to. But I’ll accompany you.”

Jin Qingyue looked at him in surprise and asked, “You… you’re going with me?”

“Yes, I’ll accompany you. At the same time, I’ll show him my prowess just so he knows he can’t come looking for trouble as and when he pleases.”

“Really? But your wounds have yet to heal,” said Jin Qingyue, staring at his stomach.

“It won’t be visible with clothes on. It won’t matter.”

“Brother Ciye… why do you treat me so well now?” Jin Qingyue asked coquettishly.

“This is also considered treating you well?”

“Yes.”

“Because you’re my woman now.”

How domineering!

Because you’re my woman now!

Pouting her lips, Jin Qingyue said, “Had I known earlier, I would’ve reserved you for myself ever since we were young. I was blind to have married Shi Shaochuan. If only I reserved you long ago, that would’ve been great.”

“It’s not too late now. If you tried to reserve me when we were younger, you wouldn’t have succeeded because I used to only treat you as my younger sister. Besides, Tianze was so smitten and devoted to you but you broke his heart,” Ling Ciye blurted.

“I’ve already apologized to him. I did him wrong in the past, be it the things I said to him or what not. But I actually feel rather heartened and glad to see that he has a loving wife and two adorable children now,” Jin Qingyue bared her heart and soul, reflecting on her past.

“You really didn’t know better in the past. Tianze was so nice to you ever since we were young, but you never realized his worth. But you managed to land in my hands in the end, precisely because you didn’t know better, isn’t that so?” Ling Ciye remarked.

Jin Qingyue nodded fervently and answered, “Yes, you’re right, very right.”

Ling Ciye handed her mobile phone back to her and said, “Reply to him.”

“How should I reply?” Jin Qingyue asked.

“You have to tell him proudly: ‘I’ll be bringing my boyfriend along to visit your family’s grave.’”

Jin Qingyue immediately did as he said.

Soon, she received an incoming call from Shi Shaochuan.

“Answer it,” said Ling Ciye.

Jin Qingyue swiped to answer and turned on the speaker. “What do you want?”

“You got a boyfriend? Which blind man has fallen for you?”

“That’s none of your business. Don’t you want me to go with you to visit your family’s graves? I’ll be bringing my boyfriend along,” Jin Qingyue answered smugly.

Shi Shaochuan scoffed and threatened, “Jin Qingyue, you’d better come alone. If you dare bring your boyfriend, don’t think of seeing Bao’er again.”

“Shi Shaochuan, don’t try to threaten me with the child. I have the rights to her custody. Don’t think I won’t know what to do with you if you dare hide her from me! Don’t forget who my brother is!” Jin Qingyue said with much gusto, perhaps because Ling Ciye’s presence had given her the courage to do so.

“Nice, you’ve got the guts. I’d really like to see who your boyfriend is, actually. Meet me at my doorstep tomorrow morning, eight o’clock sharp. Be there or be square!” Shi Shaochuan hollered before ending the call abruptly.

Jin Qingyue cast her phone aside and said, “It’s not too late to regret it now.”

“I think he’s the one who’s going to regret it. Trust me,” he said confidently.
