Chapter 416 - 150: Make Him Use a Honey Trap (Part 2)
’No, he belongs to me. I have to get him back.’
’I’m running out of time. If I make a mistake this time, I won’t get another chance.’
Jie Jingwei was back from his business trip, so she had no excuse to stay and sleep with Xiao You. Jing Qi was very hostile toward her. If Jing Qi started spouting nonsense in front of Aunt Qiao, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Lin Yaru clutched the object in her coat pocket. A shadow fell over her delicate face, the smile at the corners of her lips slowly turning sinister. A vicious glint filled her eyes as she muttered coldly to herself, "Jie Jingchen, I’ll make you divorce her and marry me."
Jie Jingchen carried Qin Mei back to their room and gently set her down on the bed. He rolled up her sleeves and pant legs to look at the scrapes on her fair skin. Just as his mother had said, they weren’t serious, but Jie Jingchen’s heart still ached for her.
"Does it hurt?" Jie Jingchen asked, his face full of concern.
"It doesn’t hurt." Qin Mei shook her head, reached out to cup Jie Jingchen’s face, and gave it a few firm rubs. "Don’t worry, it’s just a scratch."
"What kind of job did Qin Xiang do teaching you?" Jie Jingchen wanted to beat Qin Xiang up. The guy was so unreliable, letting Qin Mei get so scraped up while teaching her to ride a bike.
"You can’t learn to ride a bike without falling a few times," Qin Mei said nonchalantly. "Besides, you can’t get hurt too badly falling off a bicycle. If it were a motorcycle or an electric scooter, a fall would be serious. You’d be trapped underneath and wouldn’t even be able to get up."
Jie Jingchen’s brows furrowed tightly. He disagreed. ’If I were teaching her, I’d never let her get hurt. I’d protect her like the apple of my eye.’
When Qin Xiang taught her, he’d let go as soon as she was balanced, letting her ride on her own. If he didn’t let go, she’d have a hard time learning.
"Don’t have him teach you anymore. I’ll teach you when I get off work," Jie Jingchen said.
"Okay, I’ll listen to you." Qin Mei smiled and nodded.
"I’ll listen to you." Those four words were music to Jie Jingchen’s ears. He took out the ointment Qin Mei had given him last time and applied it to her scrapes. Qin Mei didn’t stop him, gazing quietly at his devastatingly handsome face.
’Tsk, tsk! That face of his!’ Thinking of Lin Yaru’s undying devotion to him, the phrase "a fatal face" popped into her mind. ’Who says only women can be femme fatales? This man right here is the undisputed champion.’
"Jie Jingsi, what do you think of Teacher Lin?" Qin Mei asked suddenly.
Jie Jingchen’s eyes narrowed in an instant, a dangerous glint flashing in their amber depths. His hand, which had been applying the ointment, paused for a moment before he continued the careful application. He pushed his tongue against his back teeth and forced the words out. "Not great."
’He’s angry.’ Qin Mei suppressed a smile and asked again with a straight face, "Between Xu Chunyan and Lin Yaru, who do you think is better?"
"They’re two of a kind." A faint sneer surfaced in Jie Jingchen’s eyes. He put the ointment away and pinched her cheek. "Meimei, what are you getting at?"
"Do you want a new sister-in-law?" Qin Mei blinked, looking up at Jie Jingchen, a delighted smile playing at the corners of her eyes.
Jie Jingchen paused, taken aback, then looked at Qin Mei with a helpless laugh. "That’s not something we can interfere in."
"But I want to interfere. What should I do?" Qin Mei put on a troubled expression.
Jie Jingchen wasn’t stupid; he quickly deduced what she was planning. His sister-in-law, Xu Chunyan, was indeed a real piece of work. If she had just focused on her own life, everyone could have lived in peace. But instead, she had it out for Qin Mei, always looking for trouble and constantly using Lin Yaru to disgust her.
Xu Chunyan could spin complete fabrications into convincing truths. Things had been quiet for a while, but now, here she was, up to her old tricks again.
’Xu Chunyan is too malicious. She’s intentionally trying to destroy my marriage. In that case, I’ll destroy hers too.’
"If you want to interfere, then interfere. If anything happens, I’ll take responsibility." Jie Jingchen’s tone was exactly the same as Mrs. Xie’s.
"Will you support me?" Qin Mei extended a finger and drew circles on Jie Jingchen’s chest.
Jie Jingchen looked down at the mischievous finger on his chest. ’She’s injured. Is she so sure I won’t dare to touch her?’ "I support you. I’ll give you my full support."
Qin Mei gave him a seductive smile. What she wanted wasn’t just his full support. "Just supporting me isn’t enough. I need you to cooperate."
Jie Jingchen’s body tensed. His voice was low. "How do you want me to cooperate?"
Qin Mei slipped her finger inside his shirt, hooking it around the top button. She gave a slight tug, and Jie Jingchen followed the force, leaning closer to her. Qin Mei smiled in satisfaction and whispered in his ear.
After hearing her out, the color drained from Jie Jingchen’s face. His wife wanted him to use a honey trap to seduce Lin Yaru. Without a second thought, Jie Jingchen refused flatly. "I won’t do it."
Qin Mei’s expression darkened. She deliberately twisted his meaning, raising a hand to pat his cheek. "What? Can’t bear to do it? It seems things between you two aren’t as innocent as you claimed. ’It’s just one-sided on her part,’ huh? The way I see it, the feelings are obviously mutual."
