Chapter 602: Someone She Has Never Met in Her Life
Her voice wasn’t loud, nor was her tone fierce, it sounded like just an ordinary question.
But Qin Nanyu could feel that if he didn’t answer this question well, he might be kicked out immediately.
Seeing that he remained silent, as if pondering over what excuse to use to fend her off, Ji Weitian’s face darkened and she moved towards the guest room, apparently determined to pack his luggage for him.
"Tiantian." Qin Nanyu followed behind her, calling out to her in a lingering voice.
Ji Weitian now felt a headache whenever she heard these two syllables come out of his mouth.
She wanted to shut him up without wasting more words with him.
Upon entering the guest room and heading straight for Qin Nanyu’s suitcase, just as her hand touched it, she got pulled backward, tumbling right into his arms.
"Let go of me!"
"The card belongs to Qin Morui," Qin Nanyu abruptly broke the silence, his tone unable to conceal the sorrow.
Ji Weitian was taken aback.
He released her and voluntarily stepped forward, opened his own suitcase, and took out several bank cards from it.
Ji Weitian glanced at them and noticed they were all Chinese Zodiac Cards.
One for each year, as if they held some special significance.
"These are the red packets my grandfather gives Qin Morui each year, and I’ve always kept them for him. He forgot to bring them with him when he packed to leave with you," Qin Nanyu put all the bank cards into Ji Weitian’s hands.
His tall frame leaned against the wall, his eyes slightly downcast.
As if these cards reminded him of something, his mood seemed to fall even lower.
He spoke again, his voice faint.
"Ji Weitian, I have never imagined that one day, I would stoop to secretly spending my own son’s money."
"..."
"I find it a bit shameful, do you despise me for it?"
"..."
Ji Weitian looked down at the cards in her hands and, moved by his words, her heart tightened slightly.
Before her mind could assess the credibility of his words, she instinctively comforted him, "Ruirui is your son; technically, all this money is also yours. I won’t look down on you."
"Really?" Qin Nanyu raised an eyebrow at her.
She nodded earnestly, "Mhm."
"But you were angry just now," Qin Nanyu changed his tone, suddenly appearing as vulnerable as a child, despite being a grown man.
Remembering her earlier attitude, Ji Weitian stepped forward and tiptoed to pat his head, "I misunderstood, I apologize to you, is that okay?"
"Are you still going to drive me away?" Qin Nanyu asked again.
He took her retracting hand and pressed it to his chest, using his height advantage to create an overwhelming presence as he looked down at her.
They were so close that they could feel each other’s breaths.
Ji Weitian’s mind involuntarily flashed back to the scene from the previous night.
He had held onto her with beseeching eyes, pitifully asking her not to send him away, not wanting to return to the Qin Family Villa because... because the villa didn’t have her in it.
Ji Weitian’s heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, realising for the first time that Qin Nanyu was actually quite seductive when he showed vulnerability.
With a captivating face and uttering the softest words... This side of him was like a siren that could enchant and captivate souls.
Ji Weitian had never encountered such a man before.
Never in her life.
Defeated, Ji Weitian gave all the cards back to him, "Keep these yourself, I’m going to bathe Ruirui and Yaoyao."
She fled in a panic, nearly racing out the door.
