“Shixin, you’ll continue to follow my instructions until your Young Sir regains his memory, right?”
“That goes without saying.”
“For the sake of maintaining the harmony within Wei Ni Estate, arrange for the three of them to work in the garden once we’re back home. Give them five million dollars too. From now onwards, do not let them appear in front of us unless instructed by me.”
“I understand.” Fan Shixin nodded and finally broke into smiles. “Young Madam, just how did you manage to find him? I seriously take my hats off you.”
“Then follow my instructions.”
“Hehe, yes!”
An Xiaoning waited for a while before yelling into the cubicle, “Are you done?”
“Yes.”
She entered the cubicle and closed the door behind her before locking it from inside. She then stripped down to nothing in front of Jin Qingyan and changed into a fresh set of clothes that she took out from her bag. Throughout the entire process, Jin Qingyan cocked his head towards the side and did not dare to take a single look at her.
After changing into her dress, An Xiaoning sat down beside him and said, “Hubby, do you know? You weren’t like this before you lost your memory. You used to lose control of yourself and jump at the chance to get intimate with me every time you watched me change. It’s totally unlike you to not want to grope me at all. Why have you suddenly become like a pure and innocent teenager after suffering from amnesia? I’m really not used to you being like this.”
Jin Qingyan turned to face her slowly and asked, “Are you really my wife?”
“Our certificate of marriage is at home. You may have a look later if you don’t believe me. Otherwise, you may also check with the Civil Administration Office.”
An Xiaoning sat on his lap and put her arms around his neck.
He was greatly aroused by her suggestive actions and could not help but feel his erection growing.
Noticing the bulge in his pants, An Xiaoning’s lips curled into a smirk and decided to strike the iron while it’s hot. She put one leg over his lap and began straddling him.
Just as she was about to unbutton his pants, he grabbed her hand and stopped her. “Don’t…”
An Xiaoning retracted her hands and placed her arms back onto his shoulders around his neck before planting a kiss on his lips.
She had caught him completely off guard.
Jin Qingyan felt his blood gushing through his veins continuously in excitement and arousal while she continued to smooch him.
His mind went blank, completely rid of any thoughts.
All he could think about was her pleasant scent lingering right in front of him.
Perhaps due to his primal instincts and hormones, he gradually began to take the initiative to take things a step further.
He was no longer in control of his hands, which wandered about her body passionately. However, when it reached her bosom, he quickly retracted his hand, as if he had gotten an electric shock.
An Xiaoning burst into laughter at the amusing sight.
She let go of him and placed his hand back onto her chest.
Jin Qingyan was a little afraid to look at her. At this moment, there seemed to be a role reversal between the two, which was particularly amusing.
An Xiaoning suddenly felt like it was not too bad of an idea after all, since she could tease him a little every day.
She placed her head on his chest and her hand on his shoulder. “Qingyan, I’m so, so happy. In fact, I’m exhilarated. I’ve never been so elated before. I really feel like I’ve been blessed by Heaven, which returned you to me,” she exclaimed smilingly.
Jin Qingyan gazed at her with a tinge of aloofness in his eyes. An Xiaoning could feel intensely the emotional distance between them. At this point, she was no more than a stranger to him, whom he had just begun to know.
As much as they used to be so familiar with each other’s bodies.
Indeed, they did feel just like strangers.
But it did not matter to An Xiaoning.
She had an abundance of patience and time, even if she had to make him fall in love with her again.
She was confident that she would succeed.
“It’ll take us three hours to reach home. Shall we have a few drinks?”
“Okay.”
She stood up and exited the cabin. All eyes were on her as she grabbed a bottle of wine and two empty glasses before returning inside the cabin and locking the door behind her.
Bu Xianxian kept her eyes fixed on the door and felt a strong urge to barge in and take a look at what was going on inside.
Yet, she was in no place to make any comments since they were a lawfully married couple.
She could only stare on helplessly.
An Xiaoning poured two glasses of red wine and handed him one.
They sat there and sipped on the wine in silence.
An Xiaoning was well aware of his liquor tolerance. They stared at each other quietly and enjoyed the wine.
A deafening silence filled the air. At this very moment, someone began to knock on the door.
“Who’s there?”
“It’s me,” said Bu Xianxian.
An Xiaoning stood up to open the door and stared at her. “What’s the matter?”
“I’d like to have a word with Nick.”
“Sure, come in.” An Xiaoning then turned around and walked back to her seat.
After entering, Bu Xianxian made another request, “Um… could you please go out for a while?”
“What’s the big secret? Why can’t you let me hear it?” An Xiaoning scoffed.
“Just excuse us for a while. I’ll come out after a few words,” said Bu Xianxian.
“Alright.” What’s there to fear since there are voice recorders and surveillance cameras in here?
An Xiaoning walked out of the cabin straight away and even closed the door for them.
Staring at Bu Xianxian, Jin Qingyan asked, “What would you like to tell me?”
“Nick, we’ve been living together for more than a month and I’ve always treated you as the most important person to me. Do you feel the same way about me?”
Jin Qingyan nodded and said, “You’re very important to me too. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve probably died long ago.”
“Placing the fact that I saved you aside, how do you feel about me? Nick, I fell in love with you the moment I first saw you, before I even knew that you had a wife and a son. What are your feelings towards me?”
“I like you too, but in the brotherly way. I see you as my sister,” Jin Qingyan said bluntly.
Bu Xianxian’s initial smile and joy vanished at the instant that he said he only treated her like his sister.
“Did you say that only because you’re now aware that you have a wife and son?”
“No, I said that because it’s precisely how I feel.”
Bu Xianxian was struck with a sudden blow. “Why don’t I find it believable at all?”
“Xianxian, I’m already married with a child. These are just facts that won’t change even if I’ve lost my memory. So please, get your feelings sorted out,” Jin Qingyan said calmly, as if her words did not have an impact on him at all.
Bu Xianxian felt incredibly upset and swallowed the rest of the thoughts in her mind, which she was no longer in the mood to say.
She did not utter another word and walked out of the cabin.
An Xiaoning raised her brows in bewilderment and surprise at the sight of Bu Xianxian exiting so soon.
She zoomed back inside and asked Jin Qingyan, “What did she talk to you about?”
“Oh, nothing much.”
Noticing that he was rather reluctant to speak up, An Xiaoning did not probe further.
Three hours passed by in the blink of an eye.
It was one o’clock in the afternoon when they arrived home.
Jin Yiheng was carrying his schoolbag on his shoulders and preparing to go to school. He caught sight of a limousine approaching slowly from afar.
He stopped in his tracks and watched as the limousine pulled over in front of him.
The doors opened and the passengers alighted one by one.
Jin Yiheng’s eyes lit up at the sight of An Xiaoning and he leaped towards her joyfully. “Mommy!”
An Xiaoning felt as if he was a little tornado that sped towards her and hugged her legs in no time.
“Shixin, you’ll continue to follow my instructions until your Young Sir regains his memory, right?”
“That goes without saying.”
“For the sake of maintaining the harmony within Wei Ni Estate, arrange for the three of them to work in the garden once we’re back home. Give them five million dollars too. From now onwards, do not let them appear in front of us unless instructed by me.”
