Chapter 367

Wen Ren Xi’s back is on the wall, she feels the weight of his head on her shoulder.

They both are silent. After a while, Wen Ren Xi speaks up. “We should go back.”

Jing Yi raises up his head and holds Wen Ren Xi’s shoulder, he looks at her on the eyes.

“Xiao Xi….”

“Xian Sheng, Tai Tai, the dinner is ready. Old Madame asks me to call you guys.”

Jing Yi stops talking.

Jing Yi stands up straight and holds Wen Ren Xi’s hand.

Wen Ren Xi looks at their holding hands, her heart is beating so fast. She feels the impulse to hug him back. But she just closes her eyes and calms herself down.

On the wedding day, he left her to get on the ambulance. Old Madame Wen Ren’s words are true. It will happen for the second time. She thinks she might not have power to experience that for the second time. In his heart, Su Mei will be more important than her forever.

Inside the living room.

Old Madame Jing notices that Wen Ren Xi and Jing Yi are holding hand. She is so happy about it.

On the dinning table, Jing Bo Yuan is taking care of Ye Qing Xin well, he doesn’t even give her chance to pick her own food.

Jing Suo Suo looks at them, she feels that she cannot endure their romantic gesture.

Jing Yi also notices Jing Bo Yuan and Ye Qing Xin’s romantic interaction. So he just picks several favorite food of Wen Ren Xi for her.

Wen Ren Xi looks at Jing Yi.

“What do you want to eat, you can tell me, I will pick it up for you.” He says close to her ear.

Wen Ren Xi just moves away and says: “No need.”

Her disaffection makes Jing Yi once more feels heartbroken. He holds her hand.

Wen Ren Xi just lets him be.

Afterwards, she eats only a little food. Jing Yi picks a lot of food for her but she seems not to touch it.

The snow is falling heavily outside so the land is full of white things.

After the dinner, Jing family members accompany Wen Ren family’s member to the living room to chat.

The elders of Wen Ren are indifferent but both sons and their daughter-in-law are quite friendly. The atmosphere is lively.

Ye Qing Xin goes to Jing Bo Yuan’s old bedroom to feed the triplet. After that the babies have a shower. Jing Bo Yuan comes to the room when the babies are having their shower.

The babies are almost five months. Three of them are clever and have a lot of expressions and movement.

“Why are you here? Are they going back to their room now?”

It’s snowing so heavily, Jing family shouldn’t allow Wen Ren family to go home now.

“Em.” Jing Bo Yuan takes Nian Nian and places him on his thigh. Nian Nian seems to be so happy that he smiles and laughs. He even claps.

Jing Bo Yuan smiles gently.

Zhao Zhao and Mu Mu are laying side by side. Ye Qing Xin switches off the main light and just turns on the bedside lamp.

“Okay, it’s late. Xiao Jia Huo (Kids) you should sleep.” Then Ye Qing Xin takes Nian Nian from Jing Bo Yuan and lets him lay down too.

“Sleep, Xiao Jia Huo.” Ye Qing Xin kisses each one of them.

Nian Nian and Mu Mu are still excited. They keep on waving their hands and keep on making different sound. Mu Mu just yawns and sleeps.

Ye Qing Xin just comes out after having a shower, she notices that Mu Mu is sleeping. Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao are still waving their hands and kicking their legs. Jing Bo Yuan is sitting down on a chair and teasing them.

At first she wanted to sleep earlier but watching the interaction between father and son, she doesn’t have heart to stop them. She just quietly takes out her phone and earphone to learn Germany.

After a period of time learning, Ye Qing Xin’s ability of speaking Germany has improved a lot. For simple daily speaking, she has no trouble.

She is learning Germany, not only for improving her own skills but also because Jing Yan is cooperating with several Germany company.

Old Madame Yan keeps on saying that she will handle Jing Yan, Jing Yan will be Ye Qing Xin’s, so she thinks of preparing herself.

Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao start to yawn.

Ye Qing Xin notices that the babies are falling asleep. She is prompted by a sudden impulse that she says in German. “They want to sleep, go and have a shower.”

Jing Bo Yuan looks at her and answers back in German: “I’ll wait till they are asleep.”

His pronunciation and tone are accurate. Ye Qing Xin pouts: “One day, I’ll be better than you.”

Jing Bo Yuan smiles: “You have a motivation, I’ll wait for it.”

This time, Jing Bo Yuan’s phone vibrates.

Jing Bo Yuan answers the call. Then he stands up: “Er Shu is looking for me, I’ll go over a while. Sleep early.”

Ye Qing Xin nods.

Jing Bo Yuan kisses her lips then leaves.

In the study room.

Jing Yi is sitting down on the sofa and smokes his cigarette. Jing Bo Yuan opens the door to come in. He notices the strong smoke inside the room.

“Er Shu’s tobacco addiction is going strong.” He comes over and sits down in front of Jing Yi.

Jing Yi says: “You and your wife’s relationship is really good.”

Jing Bo Yuan raises up his eyebrow and smiles. He just waits for Jing Yi’s next words.

“Tell me how do you get a woman’s heart.” Jing Yi says.

He throws the cigarette box toward Jing Bo Yuan.

The time he was together with Su Mian, he never has a hard time. They never fight with each other so he didn’t need to pamper her. Now he doesn’t know how to let Wen Ren Xi likes him.

“Er Shu seems to forget. I stop smoking.” Jing Bo Yuan sits down on the sofa.

“Xin Xin said smoking harms the lung. She asked me to stop smoking. Afterwards she was pregnant, she couldn’t smell the smoke so I just stop.” Jing Bo Yuan says: “You don’t need to do anything, you can follow your own inclinations. When you care about someone, you naturally will remember what she said to you. When she is in hard moment, you will want to help her to solve it. When she is by your side, without you knowing, you want to do something for her….”

Someone says when you love someone, you unconsciously when to do something for that. You will fear if you cannot do anything for him.

Jing Yi returns back to the room. Wen Ren Xi is leaning on the head of a bed and listening to the music.

She looks at him calmly and says nothing. She doesn’t say anything like “you are back.”

They now look like strangers living in a house.

Jing Yi looks the table beside the bed, he comes over and asks her: “Do you want to drink water again? I will help you to take it.”

Wen Ren Xi lays down and puts her back facing him. “No need, I want to sleep.”

JIng Yi watches her for a while and takes the glass out.

The time he goes upstair again, he is holding a thermos and glass. The glass is full of water. He thinks that if Wen Ren Xi is thirsty, she can drink the hot water from the thermos.

Wen Ren Xi closes her eyes and listens to Jing Yi’s action. She covers her face with the blanket. She notices that the blanket is full of his scent. It makes her even upset.

After a while, Jing Yi turns off the light and hugs her from the back.

Wen Ren Xi struggles but it’s useless so she just let it be.

In the dark, that man’s breath turns steady and shallow. Wen Ren Xi opens up her eyes. She suddenly thinks of a sentence. “Share the same bed but dream different dreams- strange bedfellows”.

That sentence really suits her and Jing Yi’s situation.

In the middle of the night, Wen Ren Xi wakes up. Her throat feels dry. She wants to sit up but that man is holding her tightly so she can only wake him up.

Jing Yi wakes up and opens up his eyes.

“I am thirsty.”

“Lay down don’t move.” Jing Yi stands up quickly and pours a hot water from the thermos to the glass. He tries out the temperature first. It’s good.

Wen Ren Xi lays down and watches at him. She feels complicated.

The next morning.

Because of the snow last night, the ground is covered with thick layers of snow.

Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan bring the triplet downstair, they notice that the living room is crowded.

In the dining room.

Old Madame Wen Ren mentions to bring Wen Ren Xi home. “It’s inconvenient for Xiao Xi to stay at Jing Yi’s place. Later on she will pack up and move back home. I have nothing to do at home, in the future, I’ll responsible to take care of Xiao Xi.”

“This……. It’s not too good?” Old Madame Jing speaks up and opposes that idea. “I think it’s better for that husband and wife to live together. Why should they live separately.”

“What is better about it? His place is not convenient. Xiao Xi knows no one there. She has no one to speak to there. She will be lonely.” Old Madame Wen Ren says. “Don’t worry. I agree for Xiao Xi to give birth to the kid because Xiao Xi is firm in giving birth to the kid. Jing Yi also agrees to get the divorce after the kid is born. I have nothing else to say.”

“Divorce?” Old Madame Jing looks at Jing Yi with shock. “What divorce? I don’t agree!”

“He has agreed.” Old Madame Wen Ren glances at Jing Yi.

Old Madame Wen Ren feels like she feels even more offended to see her own son-in-law because Jing Yi cannot treat her daughter whole-heartedly.

“In-law, look two of them are compatible for each other. We also are harmonious toward each other. Why should you mention about the divorce, it’s too estranged.” Old Madame Jing tries to smooth things out.

“I come to Jing family house, not for be harmonious toward each other. If I don’t come, how can I meet my daughter?” Old Madame Wen Ren is hostile: “My daughter is weak, how can I just watch her be bullied. Since you guys want to divorce, then let’s have a peaceful separation.”

“In-law…..”

“Our marriage will keep on going forever.” Jing Yi suddenly holds Wen Ren Xi’s hand. He speaks up: “I know that I had disappointed you. I’m really sorry. In the future, I’ll not let you and Xiao Xi feel disappointed again.”

Jing Yi says seriously, he holds Wen Ren Xi’s hand tightly.

Wen Ren Xi breaks free from his hold. “I thought I already made it clear to you.”

“Xiao Xi.” Jing Yi puts down his chopsticks and holds Wen Ren Xi’s both hands with his two hands. He looks at her eyes and says seriously and sincerely. “I understand your thought. I will try to get rid of Su Mei from my heart. I will try to just love you. Please give me some time, and also please give me another chance.”

He wants a bit of time. He has been loving Su Mei for twenty years, it’ll be impossible for him to forget her clearly in a while. Jing Yi’s words are real and sincere.

Wen Ren Xi looks at him, her throat somehow is blocked.

Jing Yi never says anything sweet for her. Today he says it out loud in front of everyone. It clearly comes from the bottom of his heart.

She is moved.

This man… she has loved her for twenty years. She has given her best prime year for waiting for him. He has become part of her life.

Forget Su Mei and just love her?

It’s too fascinating.

Wen Ren Xi’s eyes get teary, she has waited for so many years, finally she gets those words……

Looking at Wen Ren Xi’s condition, Old Madame Wen Ren starts to be angry. Her daughter is really controlled by Jing Lao Er.”

She glares at her for a while and snorts coldly.

Old Madame Jing is happy. “Okay okay okay, in the future Lao Er just spends your life with Xiao Xi happily. Just let go of the past. You still have long days in front of you. Let’s look at the future.”

After the breakfast, the elders of Wen Ren just leave unhappily.

After all of Wen Ren family members leave, Old Madame Jing says to Jing Yi. “In two days, you go and take Xiao Xi to go to Wen Ren house. Go and show your filial toward two elders. They look so angry. You need to do it for Xiao Xi too. In the future you should be wholeheartedly toward Xiao Xi. They will see it and accept you.”

Jing Yi keeps on holding Wen Ren Xi’s hand and nods. “I get it.”

Wen Ren Xi is a bit absent-minded. She doesn’t know that the thing will progress this way. She feels that it’s a bit unreal.

She clearly already planned to finish it but Jing Yi’s a bit of action makes her compromise.

She feels very contradicted, she is afraid to sink into disappointment feeling again, but at the same time she is looking forward for it.

After a week.

The weather turns even colder.

Jing Yi makes two days available to take Wen Ren Xi back to Wen Ren family residence. He drives a more low-keyed Buick. The car stops in front of the building. Jing Yi holds the gifts for both elders. Wen Ren Xi brings nothing and follows behind him. He watches his tall figure and looks at the gifts on his hand.

This is can be counted as the first time Jing Yi visits her parents.

She feels a bit happy about it.

This period of time, Jing Yi indeed changes a lot. He doesn’t act like he used to. He wouldn’t neglect and ignore her for his work. Every day no matter where he is, what he does. As long as he can tell her and it’s not a secret, he will tell her what time he will be home.

His progress makes her moved.

Wen Ren Xi thinks about this matter and doesn’t notice the elevator door is opened.

“What are you thinking about?” Jing Yi says.

Wen Ren Xi just regains herself. “Nothing.”

The elevator goes upstair and opens up in few minutes.

Wen Ren house is located historical prestigious area. The elevator in the apartment is somewhat old but it’s luxurious.

Wen Ren Xi goes to door and presses the belly. The door is opened, Old Madame Wen Ren welcomes Wen Ren Xi and ignores Jing Yi. Jing Yi doesn’t mind it and just takes off his shoes. He just gets in to the living room with the gifts.

Old Mister Wen Ren is an intellectual person. After retiring during his leisure time, he likes to do Chinese calligraphy. Jing Yi gets a high-quality ink-slab made in Duan Xi from the information he gathered from group of people who love antique things. Jing Yi doesn’t understand about it, he just knows to spend his money. He has been friends with those people so the ink shouldn’t be a fake ohne.

Old Mister Wen Ren’s eyes shine when he sees that ink. He extends his hands to take it but Old Madame Wen Ren just slaps his hands.

Old Mister Wen Ren is resentful but he stops to take it. However, his eyes keep on watching that ink. Then he glances at Old Madame Wen Ren with an angry stare.

As for Old Madame Wen Ren, Jing Yi gives her a pair of phoenix blood stone bracelet. The phoenix blood stone is viewed as an antique and rare jade. Every phoenix blood stone is a treasure. It’s a destiny that Jing Yi can get it. At first he wanted to give it Wen Ren Xi, but Wen Ren Xi doesn’t like jewelry so she mentioned to give it to Old Madame Wen Ren.

When Old Madame Wen Ren sees the bracelet, her eyes turn bright too.

“This…. is phoenix blood stone……”

Looking at the Old Madame’s expression, Jing Yi understands why Wen Ren Xi suggested to give it to Old Madame.

“This is a real phoenix blood stone.” Jing Yi says to Old Madame Wen Ren. “I as a junior, don’t know what do you like. Xiao Xi suggested me to give you this bracelet. I hope that you’ll like it.”

Old Madame Wen Ren nods happily, but then she thinks of something. Her expression changes, she says coldly: “I don’t like it. Take it away, take it away. Take all of these away?”

“What should he take away? Ma, Lao Da can hear you get angry? Who makes you be so angry?” Wen Ren family’s sons and their wives come over. The second daughter-in-law (Er Xi Fu) of Wen Ren family is a sweet-talking woman. She looks at Wen Ren Xi and Jing Yi and greets them. “Xiao Mei, Mei Fu”.

She looks at the bracelet and says surprisedly. “This is a phoenix blood stone right? Is it the original one? Xiao Mei and Mei Fu are so considerate.”

“Ma, don’t you always want to have one? Why aren’t you wearing this?” Er Xi Fu takes it and puts it on Old Madame’s wrist.

Old Madame Wen Ren said that she doesn’t want it but she yields after making a show of refusal. She let her Er Xi Fu to put it on her.

“It’s really nice on you.” Er Xi Fu is a woman with extensive experiences. She looks at the ink on the table and once again says with amazement. “This ink should be for Pa right. Though I cannot see where is it come from. But if it’s from Mei Fu, it should be an unordinary one. Pa, in the future you can use this for doing your calligraphy. I’ll take this to the study room for you .”

Old Madame Wen Ren nods. “Okay!”

Jing Yi smiles and says: “Sorry to trouble Er Sao.”

The Er Xi Fu is happy, it’s a glory to be called Er Sao by a Zong Zhang.

“We are family, Mei Fu shouldn’t be too estranged.”

Da Er Xi (The eldest daughter-in-law) looks at how Er Xi Fu snatches away the direction of the event, her face turns sour.

Old Madame Wen Ren looks at the bracelet for several time and puts it down again for several time. She is hesitating, but finally she doesn’t take it off.

It’s just her gaze toward Jing Yi is still a bit hostile.

Except bringing the ink and phoenix blood stone, Jing Yi also brings several supplements fort the elders.

On the dining table, for the first time Old Madame Wen Ren wants to serve out another bowl of rice for Jing Yi after he finishes the first one. Of course Jing Yi doesn’t let her, at last the maid serves it for him.

The elders’ attitude toward him starts to change, he can feel it.

At night the elders let Jing Yi and Wen Ren Xi to stay for the night, both Jing Yi and Wen Ren Xi don’t decline. It’s the first time for Jing Yi to stay there. They stay at Wen Ren Xi’s bedroom. Wen Ren Xi’s bedroom is full of young woman’s vibe. It has 150 cm bed, it’s not too big or too small for both of them.

Jing Yi stands in the middle of the room and looks around. He notices the bedsheet is in light pink color with flowery pattern. It really resembles Wen Ren Xi’s simple and gentle style.

Wen Ren Xi feels a bit awkward as she feels that her taste is a bit childish.

“What is so good to see, go take a shower and sleep.”

Jing Yi just stands there and doesn’t move. Wen Ren Xi pushed him. “Go.”

Wen Ren Xi frowns when he still doesn’t move. “You are not going to sleep?”

Jing Yi suddenly hugs her.

“You told me to give the phoenix blood stone for Ma, is it because you want her to accept me soon?”
