The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

“Why should I call you?” Her tone was slightly sarcastic. “Who do you think you are?”

Jin Qingyan’s heart was about to explode. But on the surface, he remained composed like still water.

“Do you want to verify in front of that major who exactly I am to you…?”

His voice was filled with agitation and threat, which he could not suppress. He started moving even closer to her.

An Xiaoning stood there motionless and just watched as he gradually neared her.

Even when their bodies were stuck close to each others’, she did not back off at all.

“Jin Qingyan, don’t push your luck.”

“To you, every inch I go forward is probably enjoyable.”

After he said that, An Xiaoning jerked her knee upward at his fatal spot. In that moment, Jin Qingyan felt that it was almost the end of the world.

An Xiaoning then turned to leave immediately and did not look back at all.

Jin Qingyan clenched his teeth and straightened his body. Watching her go farther away, he shouted through his hands, which he curved around his mouth, “An Xiaoning, you just wait, I’ll have you tonight!”

Across the whole mile of that land, the three were the only ones around.

An Xiaoning, who had just reached the car, quivered slightly with his scream. She abruptly turned around and glared furiously at him, who stood not far away. “Jin Qingyan, you may be shameless, but I still want my face!”

He ignored her fury and leisurely headed toward his own car. When he reached his car door, he alluringly used his hand to send her a flying kiss. “Be good, I’ll make tea for you to drink at night.”

An Xiaoning stood there in the wind, completely shaken up. How she wished she could strangle this rotten man to death!

She got onto the car, feeling extremely awkward. It was impossible that Ji Yu in the car did not hear what Jin Qingyan had said earlier.

Her whole face was full of embarrassment.

What made her more depressed was that she had no way of explaining it. She was still just friends with Ji Yu at the moment and did not know how to broach the subject.

There was complete silence in the car.

Neither of them spoke first.

After composing her emotions, An Xiaoning turned to look at him and realized that he was looking ahead, seeming to be deep in thought.

“Having come here with you this afternoon, I’m very happy. Although there was an unpleasant intruder, I’m still very thankful to you.”

Hearing her mention “an unpleasant intruder,” Ji Yu’s lips curled into a grin and he replied, “What’s there to thank? I’d have been very bored if I’d come alone anyway, so I’m delighted to have you accompany me.”

An Xiaoning joked casually, “My chauffeur Oppa, please drive.”

“You haven’t put on your seat belt.”

He was about to reach out to fasten her seat belt when An Xiaoning hurriedly said, “I’ll do it myself.”

Ji Yu retracted his hands. He then fired the engine and concentrated on driving.

“Why did he come over?”

“I’m not too sure.” In her heart, An Xiaoning knew that the only possibility was that Jin Qingyan had gotten someone to follow her tracks. The same thing had happened when she was walking on the streets previously.

“He’s very concerned about you. He probably knew that you were with me, and that’s why he came over.”

“It’s impossible for us to get back together.” An Xiaoning’s tone was full of determination. “I’ve fallen hard for the same man twice, it already won’t happen a third time.”

“I saw the news online. You were the one who revealed the divorce. Did you initiate it?”

“No, your guess is wrong. He initiated it.” An Xiaoning rolled up the car window slightly, allowing the cool air to blow into the car. As the chilly breeze blew onto her face, it felt remarkably comfortable to her.

“He initiated it? Why?”

“It’s complicated.” She was rather unwilling to explain the whole situation that had caused her and Jin Qingyan to split. “No matter how much two people love each other, who can be so sure that there is complete and unconditional trust between each other? There’s no such person who exists in this world. This is basically the main reason for our divorce.”

Ji Yu seemed to have understood and replied, “Someone like Jin Qingyan is considered unattainable to many women.”

“He may be unattainable, but when I was with him, I didn’t think that I wasn’t worthy of him.” An Xiaoning looked out the window. “Just thinking about it is upsetting.”

“You’re meeting him tonight?”

Hearing him ask this, An Xiaoning knew that what Jin Qingyan said earlier had gotten to him. “Have you really taken his words for real?”

She felt that Jin Qingyan had said those words earlier intentionally for him.

He just casually mentioned things that he didn’t intend to carry out at night.

“Don’t go.”

“You’ve really taken it seriously?” An Xiaoning laughed. “I haven’t.”

Ji Yu stopped the car and turned to look at her seriously. “I know you treat me like a normal friend, but it isn’t the same for me. From the day of our blind date, I’ve treated you as my other half already. You’re not perfect, but neither am I. It’s exactly this kind of imperfection that allows me to see the genuine side of you each time I meet you. We don’t meet a lot, but each time we do, it’s just like a date to me. You don’t have to feel pressured, I just wanted to tell you what I really think.”

A look of surprise flashed in An Xiaoning’s eyes. They had seen each other only a few times and he had not even fully understood who she was, yet he was already saying this…

After giving it more thought, during the first time she had married Jin Qingyan, the progress between them was much faster than this. Hence, this isn’t that surprising, after all.

“The person you see now may not be the real me,” An Xiaoning said frankly. “I think you’re great in every way too. But perhaps because I’ve grown older and have seen more things, I’m more careful now and don’t have the adventurous spirit I had when I was in my twenties. However, I still stand by my words that my fate isn’t sealed. Before I get to realize that someone really understands me, I won’t begin a relationship that easily.”

His dark pupils were shining as he replied with a grin, “I know. Our relationship right now is good as well.”

Seeing that he was smiling, An Xiaoning immediately remarked, “From now onwards, you’re not allowed to treat me as your other half but just a friend.”

“Okay.”

“Sister Yangyang, is the male lead really Yan Ge?”

“Of course. Sister Xiaoning went to sign the contract personally.” Mei Yangyang went on delightedly, “Erlan, you’re the very first artiste our studio signed on, you must work hard and cherish this rare opportunity. Don’t let down the hopes your Sister Xiaoning and I have for you.”

“Sister Yangyang, don’t worry, I will work hard. I’m rather worried, though. if an A-list actor like Yan Ge finds out that I’m the female lead, will he refuse to act or request to change the female lead?”

“That won’t happen. Sister and I think quite highly of your acting, and the director thinks you’re not bad either. They’ve told Yan Ge on their side already, just that we didn’t send a photo of you yet. You don’t have any works or any information on you online, so he doesn’t know what you look like. Recently, I’ve gotten people to create a page for you online already. So now, we just have to wait for the audition day. Perform well, and Yan Ge will think highly of you as a new artiste as well.”

Fang Erlan placed her hand on her heart and said, “I haven’t been sleeping well these few days, I feel like all of this is just a dream. Sister Yangyang, when will the teacher who will guide me in acting my role be here?”

“Probably a few more days. For these few days, you should just analyze the character yourself and also rest well. I’m leaving.”
