Chapter 45: 045: Call Me Daddy

“Mother!” Qin Yi let out a scream when he heard what she said with a pale look on his face.

After hanging up the phone yesterday, he made several calls to Jing Qian, but she never answered.

Initially, even if Jing Qian hadn’t come looking for him, he had planned on looking for her today.

However, she was here now, which hit him by surprise. It was obvious that she must have heard rumors about him and Jing Lu, which was why she was here to catch them today.

He was the one to blame in this scenario, but despite this, his mother was still saying such things.

Qin Yi even initially had plans to borrow five million yuan from her today. What if she got triggered and turned ignorant towards him again?

“I’m out of line?! Perhaps it’s you who have gotten a stroke because you woke up too early this morning?!”

When she saw Mother Qin’s acrimonious face, Jing Qian refused to bear her insults any longer, and immediately retaliated.

“If I hadn’t introduced your son to the crew of ‘The Palace of the Qing Dynasty,’ would he still be the popular idol he is now? If it wasn’t because of me, who agreed to marry into the Zhan family, giving him money and resources, do you think you’d be able to own a mooncake factory, because of your son’s popularity? Your entire family’s fortune depends on me. None of you getting on your knees and calling me your ‘daddy’ is already enough of injustice from your side. I have been the better person to let go of it but you still have the audacity to talk to me in this manner?”

Depends on me?

‘Daddy’?

The better person?

Mother Qin’s eyes widened in disbelief with every sentence that Jing Qian uttered.

This was mainly because from the first time they had met Jing Qian, she was obviously the kind of person to be head over heels for a man and lose herself in the name of love. Plus, Jing Lu was the pearl of the Jing family, which was why Mother Qin had been much nicer to Jing Qian for the past two years. As for Jing Qian, she had always offered her like Buddha because of Qin Yi.

However, there was something wrong with the ‘Jing Qian’ standing here today. Not only had she told her to ‘get lost’ when she first walked into the house, but now she was even asking an elder to refer to her as ‘daddy’!

“You! You are just…”

At that moment, Mother Qin couldn’t even find the right words to scream at Jing Qian.

From her point of view, Jing Qian had no values.

“What were you going to say about me? That I have no manners or etiquettes? I don’t respect my elders? You weren’t nice to me even when I was well-mannered. Since you would be harsh to me no matter what I do, why should I even be talking to you about manners? Before trying to get your ‘daddy’ to be well-mannered, you should think if you, as the ‘god-daughter,’ have been filial enough towards your ‘daddy’! The ones who are eating shit are oppressing the ones who shat! Such bullshit!”

Mother Qin couldn’t believe her ears.

“What’s wrong with me not trusting your son? I’m here to catch him red-handed! What can you do about that? I will also let you know in advance: if there is a fox inside, I won’t even give you the chance to call me your ‘daddy’!”

With that said, and as Qin Yi and Mother Qin were still startled from Jing Qian’s words, she slammed the doorknob with her palm. All they heard was a loud ‘bang,’ and as if something inside the door had broken. With a gentle push, the door that was initially locked from the inside could now be easily pushed open.

The mother and son duo were both lost for words.

“Qianqian!” Qin Yi shouted out loud, standing in front of Jing Qian in an attempt to block her.

However, when he looked into her smiling eyes, he saw that they were as cold as the venom that oozed out of a Mandala Flower, all the words that he wanted to say now stuck inside his throat.

“Move!”

Jing Qian pushed Qin Yi away, that force so strong that Qin Yi stumbled.

The bedroom was a small suite. The outside consisted of a living room, with the real bedroom inside it. At this moment, the door leading to the real bedroom was obviously shut closed.

Jing Qian strode across the living room and stood in front of the door. She raised her leg, and with her stiletto heels, she kicked open the locked door with a loud ‘bang’.

Both Qin Yi and his mother remained speechless as the scene unfolded in front of them.
