The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses Chapter 819 - A Million Times for You (181)

“Persuade the shareholders of Ye Corporation with a high price.”

“Yes.”

Even if Ye Xiaotian was unwilling to sell, he naturally had a way to make him do so.

Ever since he’d met with the tsunami and the Ye Corporation had started taking advantage by reaping the benefits, and since he had uncovered that Ye Xiaotian was the one who’d hired people to a.s.sa.s.sinate him at rocket prices, he had been preparing to make the Ye Corporation fall into the hands of the Jin Corporation in the shortest period of time!

This day, he believed, would not be a good one for Ye Xiaotian.

Jin Qingyan rested against his computer chair, his gaze landing on his computer screen. On it was a picture of him with An Xiaoning.

He had not contacted her for a few days in a row. It was ten in the morning and, given the time difference in V Nation, it would probably be around one in the morning over there. Perhaps due to his telepathic connection with her, he felt that she was probably still awake.

When the line went through, An Xiaoning was indeed still awake. The mosquitoes were keeping them awake as they bit them all over.

With their sleep continuously disturbed like that, how could they possibly sleep in peace?

If she had not charged her phone at the motel, this call possibly would not have gone through.

After she briefly explained the situation over there to him, Jin Qingyan’s heart ached for her badly. “It’s great that you’re fine. You must be extra cautious there. The three of you shouldn’t stay in the mountains anymore. Go to the town area to find a motel to stay in. It’s far better than staying in the mountains.”

“We’ll see when it’s daybreak,” An Xiaoning said in an earnest tone. “Don’t I have a GPS application on my phone? Even if you can’t get through to me because my phone has run out of battery, don’t worry. Listen to me, we’ll definitely be fine, so don’t panic even when you can’t reach me, okay?”

“Alright.”

“These d.a.m.n mosquitoes are so annoying. The weather here is so hot and humid. The weather back home is cold, right?”

“Without you by my side, I feel cold every day.”

An Xiaoning hugged her legs and couldn’t help but chuckle as she held onto her phone. “Really?”

“It’s true. I wish I could huddle by your side to keep warm.”

She responded, “You can still joke at this juncture? My phone’s battery level is only at ten percent. I’ll hang up first, okay?”

“Give me a kiss before you go.”

“No.” In front of Fan s.h.i.+xin and Xiao Bai, she did not want to do such an intimate gesture.

“Then, I’ll kiss you. Muah, muah, muah. Be good, I love you.”

An Xiaoning’s heart was overflowing with joy as she replied gently, “Me too.”

After her call ended, Fan s.h.i.+xin smirked in amus.e.m.e.nt.

“What are you smiling for?”

“Don’t think I didn’t know what Young Sir said on the other end of the line just because I couldn’t hear him. From your answer, I could guess it already.”

She did not respond and proceeded to put her phone into her bag.

Fan s.h.i.+xin went on, “Honestly, I’ve been with Young Sir for a very long time already. It’s the first time I’ve seen him treat someone like how he treats you. Young Sir really loves you a lot.”

“How did he treat Chi Rui’er, then?”

“He wasn’t possessive toward Chi Rui’er. I believe, if a man isn’t possessive over a woman, it means that he doesn’t love her. In the past, Young Sir really liked Chi Rui’er. But even then, Young Sir respected her decision when she chose Gu Beicheng. From this, it was evident that Chi Rui’er’s position in Young Sir’s heart wasn’t very important. At the very least, her importance to him isn’t even one-tenth of yours to him.”

An Xiaoning had her eyes half-closed and had one hand on her head as she remarked, “Qingyan is someone who’s devoted.”

“From how I see it, you’re the same kind of person as Young Sir.” Fan s.h.i.+xin added, “Even amongst all those outstanding men, Young Madam has never faltered and has continued to love Young Sir. You haven’t let down Young Sir’s feelings for you. Everything that Young Sir has done for you and that you have done for him, I’ve seen it all. Ever since you returned, did Young Madam know? Young Sir’s depression has been cured. I see him in high spirits every day.”

Upon hearing him mention Jin Qingyan’s depression, An Xiaoning thought of the scene at Sanqiao Estate that day wherein he had woken up from a dream and was continuously asking her not to leave him. “Other than his depression symptoms and the unexplainable pain on his body, does he have other psychological issues?”

“Other issues?” Fan s.h.i.+xin shook his head. “I haven’t noticed at the moment. I don’t think so.”

“Does he still need sleeping pills to sleep?”

“I haven’t seen him take them anymore.”

“s.h.i.+xin, you should sleep for a while. I’ll keep watch.”

“… Alright.”

Everything was peaceful and fine throughout the night, and when morning came, An Xiaoning used the binoculars to observe the house that they had burned yesterday. She realized that the group of people had stayed over inside and that there was no sign of them leaving.

After discussing amongst themselves, the three went down the mountains and searched around town before finding a small suite to rent.

In that limited s.p.a.ce, there was room only for a large bed and a tiny bathroom. The area of the room seemed like it was only around thirty-five square meters.

They had wanted to rent a larger room, but unfortunately, there wasn’t any. This was the only room left with air-conditioning.

The houses here were usually small.

Xiao Bai and Fan s.h.i.+xin bought cooling mats and pillows and intended to sleep on the ground while letting An Xiaoning have the bed.

Just like that, the three stayed there temporarily.

Eating fast food all the time was not a solution either, so Fan s.h.i.+xin also bought an electric pot that could be shared by a few people, as well as a bag of rice and some fruits and vegetables, then started preparing their first meal here.

When Xiao Bai returned, panting breathlessly and drenched in sweat, from buying a bottle of chili sauce, An Xiaoning’s eyes brightened as she remarked, “I’m so sick of eating fast food these few days. We can finally have a proper meal.”

Pa.s.sing him a towel, An Xiaoning muttered, “Look at you all drenched in sweat. Quick, wipe yourself. This air-conditioning is really not strong enough, but at least it’s better than nothing. After we eat, Xiao Bai, go and buy some mosquito coil. We can’t keep switching on the air-conditioning. It’s not good to stay in an air-conditioned room for a long time.”

“Get two small tents as well. Since this is our first rest stop, we should stay here for some time before we find more information.”

Xiao Bai responded, “Alright. The things here are really cheap. This bottle of chili sauce would have cost thirty to forty dollars back home, but this small bottle costs only three dollars here. It’s too cheap.”

“The economy here isn’t well developed, that’s why things are cheap.” Fan s.h.i.+xin a.n.a.lyzed seriously, “Moreover, the status of women here are very low and very few women work. Most women are domestic and stay home to do the household ch.o.r.es, plant some vegetables, and take care of the children.”

“That’s right, also…” Xiao Bai added, “V Nation and R Nation are infamous for being the countries with the most rampant female suppression. Not only are there vulgar customs like genital mutilation and breast ironing for women, but the women here also suffer a lot. Nearby countries have such customs as well, but given the rise in technology, people are more aware and educated. Such harmful practices have thus been eliminated, with the exception of these two countries, which still continue to practice these customs.”

An Xiaoning only knew that these two countries had less-developed economies, but after hearing the vulgar customs they practiced, she was surprised at how these countries were such disastrous areas.

“I’ve never really researched the customs here and only knew that they have two types of marriage systems: monogamy and polygamy. But, on the surface, those women on the streets can be seen being all smiles and seem happy to me…”
