“Jin Qingyan! Are you tired of living!?!”
“Milady, please spare me.”
They only stopped after teasing and playing a fool for a long while.
Jin Qingyan’s mobile phone happened to ring all of a sudden. He stood up to grab his mobile phone, only to see that it was a call from Xiao Chenyang.
“Hello.”
“…”
“Why?”
“…”
“Really?”
“…”
“Come over in the afternoon. I’m at home. Okay, bye.”
“Who called you?” An Xiaoning asked curiously.
“Xiao Chenyang.”
“What’s the matter?”
“He said that filming officially ended today for Erlan and that they’re rushing back from B City. He’s going to give me something very important later.”
“What is it?” An Xiaoning asked, feeling extremely curious.
“The treasure map.”
An Xiaoning asked in astonishment, “Why would he give you the treasure map? What has gotten into him? He should be keeping it for himself.”
“We’ll know the reason only after he arrives later. I find it really strange too. Why would he give me this out of the blue?”
“He must have his own reasons. By the way, I heard from Shixin that Xiao Chenyang had bought a mansion in our estate.”
“Yeah, I heard about it too.”
She clapped her hands and said, “The neighborhood is going to get livelier now. Look, all of our friends have moved into the same estate as us. Qingyue and Ciye, Tianze and Yangyang, Xiao Chenyang and Erlan. We don’t have to travel that far to visit each other from now on. Speaking of which, I have to visit Qingyue later. Bao’er’s death had affected her greatly.”
“I’ll go with you.”
“Let me take a shower first,” she said while getting out of bed.
“Shall I go with you?”
“No.”
She knew for sure that if they were to shower together, it would definitely take more than an hour for them to be done.
Hence, she decided that it would be better for her to shower by herself.
An Xiaoning took forty minutes to shower and get dressed.
She then proceeded to Ling Ciye’s home together with Jin Qingyan.
Jin Qingyue was lying on the bed to nurse her pregnancy. Noticing how sickly she seemed, An Xiaoning sat on the bed and asked worriedly, “You’ve lost weight. Have you been skipping meals?”
“I’ve lost my appetite. I know that this is Bao’er’s destiny but I can’t help but feel miserable. I don’t blame anyone now, however. I’ve already figured it all out. Even though Wen Lele was the one who murdered Bao’er, Bao’er was the one who had ruined her life first. I really hold it against myself for failing to teach her properly. I’m partly to blame for the way things had turned out.”
“Since Bao’er is no longer around, don’t blame yourself anymore. What matters most now is the fetus you’re carrying. You’re about to deliver soon. Qingyue, there’s no point in brooding over it. Your health is of the utmost importance now. I can only say that Bao’er is not destined to be your daughter forever. You must guide your children along and teach them the right values, not just fulfill their material needs.”
Feeling as if her spirits had been lifted a little, Jin Qingyue asked, “Sis-in-law, has she gone to reincarnate yet?”
“There’s a queue for reincarnation. She’ll reincarnate when it’s her time. Actually, you can think of it this way. She actually hasn’t really left this world at all. You didn’t seek her opinion when you gave birth to her, so she definitely doesn’t need your permission to leave. She has the right to choose her new parents. Qingyue, the last thread connecting you to Shi Shaochuan is now broken. You’ve already started a new life of your own too. Just keep looking forward and let bygones be bygones.”
Jin Qingyue nodded and said, “Relay my apology to No. 5. I shouldn’t have put all the blame on him. He didn’t want this to happen either.”
An Xiaoning was extremely gratified to hear her words. “He’s already learned his lesson this time. Qingyue, I can tell that you’ve become much more soft-hearted and you’re starting to put yourself in the shoes of others.”
“Sis-in-law, about the money I promised to give you…”
Before she could even finish, An Xiaoning waved and interjected, “Don’t talk about the money anymore. I won’t take it. Bao’er is already gone anyway. I never wanted to take the money in the first place. Qingyue, don’t let your fetus sense your misery. Try to keep yourself happy. Alright?”
Jin Qingyue felt much better. After chatting with her for a while, An Xiaoning left. Jin Qingyue then said to Ling Ciye, “Hubby… I’m hungry.”
….
An Xiaoning drove back to Sanqiao Estate.
She parked her car by the entrance and knocked on the door.
No. 6 opened the door.
“Sis, you’re home.”
“Yes. How’s No. 5?”
No. 6 answered softly, “No. 5 has been in low spirits. He doesn’t talk to us much either. He’s been cooping himself up in the room all day.”
Just like she had expected…
“Let’s go, take me to see him.”
“Alright.”
An Xiaoning headed to the dormitory on the third floor and pushed the door open gently to see that No. 5 was sitting inside the room.
She entered while No. 6 waited outside the door, knowing better than to enter.
“No. 5.”
No. 5 turned to look at her. “Sis.”
An Xiaoning sat on his bed and said, “I just came back from Wei Ni Estate where I met Qingyue. She wants me to relay her apology to you. She feels sorry for shifting all the blame onto you, so stop holding it against yourself. You did make a mistake so I’m going to punish you now. Open your ears and listen up.”
No. 5 immediately said, “Sis, punish me severely.”
An Xiaoning smiled and said, “Alright, you shall do the household chores for a month as punishment. Do you have any objections?”
“No.”
An Xiaoning patted him on his shoulder.
——
Xiao Chenyang and Fang Erlan arrived in Wei Ni Estate at three o’clock in the afternoon.
They headed straight to Jin Qingyan’s mansion.
An Xiaoning and Jin Qingyan were sitting on the couch and watching a movie with a bag of potato chips in hand. They were chatting merrily while watching the movie, just like a couple who were in the honeymoon period of their relationship.
Xiao Chenyang was clad in a pair of shades and a leather suit that was similar to the one that Fang Erlan was wearing. What a cool couples’ outfit.
“Erlan, congrats on the completion of filming,” said An Xiaoning.
“Sis Xiaoning, which movie are you guys watching?”
“An arts and literature film.”
Xiao Chenyang removed his shades and took a look at the television screen before saying, “I doubt Qingyan actually enjoys watching such films. What a henpecked wimp.”
Fang Erlan giggled and said, “It’s good to be henpecked, but speak for yourself. You accompanied me to watch a romance drama last night too.”
Jin Qingyan remarked with a straight face, “Chenyang, you’re the pot calling the kettle black. She just shot you in your foot.”
Xiao Chenyang said nonchalantly, “It’s fine, she’s my woman.”
An Xiaoning asked, “Are you guys planning to settle down in Wei Ni Estate?”
