“Rui’er couldn’t get through to Gu Beicheng, so she called me instead,” explained Jin Qingyan. Noticing the sullen look on An Xiaoning’s face, he continued in a mellowed voice, “I know you tried calling me, but I didn’t pick up because I had planned to explain to you after I come home.”

“You’re asking for it, honestly,” she scorned, staring at him.

“What?” said Jin Qingyan. Her words had struck a sour note.

“You’re so quick to show your affection to someone else’s woman. If that’s not asking for it, I don’t know what is. I turned a blind eye when you spent the entire afternoon yesterday searching for a caretaker to look after her. Well, I really think you’re asking for it by spending the night with her. Do you love her that much?” lamented An Xiaoning, her initial happiness turning into dust.

All of a sudden, there was an indescribable shift in the emotional atmosphere. Seeing that Jin Qingyan was still remaining silent, she went on to give him a piece of her mind, “Today is the day of our wedding. After today, I hope you will know your boundaries and draw a line between yourself and her. Once you become my husband, you should no longer be thinking about another woman. However, should you fail to do so, I’ll end things between you two using another method.”

It was truly an eye-opener; he had never heard her speak with such confidence and vigor before. Neither did he expect her to be such a shrewd woman.

Indeed, he had not known her all that well yet.

“My wife actually said I was asking for it. Now that’s a first. Why don’t you try saying that again? ” he taunted, walking towards her.

“You were asking for it, ” said An Xiaoning proudly. She thought to herself,Does he actually think I’m too timid to say it again? What does he take me for?

Locking the door behind him, he pinned her onto the bed and said, “Say that again.”

“Are you trying to be violent just because you can’t outspeak me? Let go.”

“No.”

“You jerk!”

“…”

Eager to hear An Xiaoning’s answer, Gu Shaochun woke up exceptionally early that morning.

However, she still had not given him her reply. He felt his heart sink with each passing moment that he continued to wait.

Just as he was getting jittery, a call came through. It was An Xiaoning.

“After much consideration, I’ve decided to agree to your request,” she said.

Unable to contain his excitement, Gu Shaochun thanked her immediately. “Thank you, Xiaoning. Grandpa has prepared a set of dowry for your big day today, and I’ll be attending your wedding, as your family.”

“Alright.”

Feeling more energized than ever, he quickly ordered his daughter-in-law to prepare a set of dowry for An Xiaoning.

Together with his family, he then headed to the home of the Jin’s, where the wedding would be held.

The Jin’s did a double-take upon the rare sight of the Gu family. “Hubby, why are they here?” asked Mrs. Jin sternly. She could not believe her eyes.

“I don’t know.”

Turning around, she said, “I’m going to call Qingyan and ask what’s going on.”

A sullen look formed on Mrs. Jin’s face, and it stiffened the moment she ended the call. Noticing her expression, Mr. Jin asked, “What’s the matter?”
