Chapter 149 Implicated by Me
Chapter 149 Implicated by Me
I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down: "Jiang Yichen, I know you care a lot about your status as an illegitimate child, and so do I. I don't want my children to go through this, and I don't want them to be discriminated against or hurt because of their identity."
I appealed to their emotions and reasoned with them, and I was almost moved to tears myself.
Jiang Yichen gazed at me with his deep eyes, then slowly leaned down and kissed me deeply.
His kiss was passionate and deep, as if he wanted to melt away all my worries and concerns between his lips and teeth.
I was caught off guard by his sudden kiss; my heart raced and my mind went blank.
I tried to push him away, but his hands gripped my waist tightly, making it impossible for me to move.
I could only let his kisses linger on my lips, feeling the warmth and determination he conveyed.
Five minutes later, Jiang Yichen slowly stood up, a barely perceptible tenderness flickering in his eyes: "I know you're worried, but please believe me, I will do everything I can to protect our children and prevent them from being harmed. Moreover, I hope you can put aside your past prejudices and misunderstandings and give me a chance to create a future together."
For a moment I felt disoriented; it seemed as if the man in front of me had been possessed.
While I was still stunned, Jiang Yichen kissed me again, giving me no chance to refuse. This time, his kiss was unusually gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting me.
At first, I subconsciously tried to avoid him, but gradually, I was attracted by his gentle touch, my defenses crumbled little by little, and I eventually succumbed to his affection.
His every touch was like a spring breeze rippling across a lake, creating waves that captivated me.
When I woke up from my sweet dream, sunlight dappled the bedside. I rubbed my sleepy eyes, a wave of annoyance washing over me.
Recalling my intimacy with Jiang Yichen last night, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
I quietly turned to look at him and found that he was still asleep. So I tiptoed out of bed and tried to leave before he woke up.
Before I could even stand up completely, Jiang Yichen's deep, slightly hoarse voice rang in my ear: "So early, where are you going?"
I was startled and quickly made up an excuse: "Oh, I... I want to go to the kitchen to help you prepare breakfast."
He chuckled softly, his voice full of affection: "No need, the housekeeper is already prepared. You should rest a little longer."
I had no choice but to give up, secretly relieved that I had escaped a disaster.
After we finished washing up, we went downstairs together to have breakfast.
As soon as Grandma saw me, her eyes crinkled into crescent moons with laughter. She took my hand and asked me with concern, "Momo, how did you sleep last night?"
"Did you get enough rest? Why are you up so early?"
"Oh, right, I had someone make you some nourishing soup. I'm so sorry about last night, I heard about it."
"Don't worry, with Grandma here, no one will dare to bully you anymore."
……
Faced with my grandma's concern, I felt a warmth in my heart: "It's okay, Grandma. You fainted yesterday, it almost scared me to death. Don't do that again."
"Okay, okay, I need to take good care of my health and also look after my great-grandson."
Grandma's meaningful smile as she gazed at my lower abdomen made my face flush.
Seeing this, the others quietly ate their breakfast, not daring to disturb the warm time we had together.
Just then, Lin Nan called Jiang Yichen to discuss company matters. He glanced at us, then got up and went to the balcony.
I noticed that Jiang Yichen's tone became unusually gentle when he answered the phone, which was completely different from his usual coldness towards me.
This made me feel a pang of sadness.
Grandma seemed to sense my change in mood and quietly leaned close to my ear, saying, "Child, you must keep a close eye on Jiang Yichen. Once a man has money and status, he'll be surrounded by many women. You have to be careful."
I forced a smile, but my heart was filled with mixed feelings.
After breakfast, Jiang Yichen took my hand and prepared to leave. Grandma stood at the door, her eyes full of reluctance. She held Jiang Yichen's hand and said softly, "Bring her back to see this old woman when you have time, okay?" Jiang Yichen nodded, and I quickly agreed, feeling warm inside.
After getting into the car, I glanced at Jiang Yichen and forced a smile: "Something's up at the company, right? I have to go to school for a class today. Just drop me off at the nearest bus stop; I can walk there myself!"
After hearing this, he smiled knowingly and said, "If you had been more self-aware before, you wouldn't have been so annoying."
I paused for a moment, then carefully recalled my past self. I realized that I had indeed been too willful at times. I couldn't help but nod and laugh at myself, "Yes, after experiencing the harsh realities of life, it's impossible not to be self-aware."
However, Jiang Yichen didn't actually leave me at the bus stop; instead, he drove me directly to the school gate.
"Thank you," I whispered before getting off the bus.
Jiang Yichen glanced at me and said in a deep voice, "I'll pick you up tonight, and we'll have dinner together."
"Huh!? I don't know if I'll have time yet, let's talk about it tonight!"
I was worried that I would forget our agreement, so I didn't agree immediately. I could see his face darken, and he stepped on the gas and sped away.
I sighed helplessly and walked into the school. As I passed the art department, I inadvertently glanced at a classroom with the window wide open. Inside, Zhao Ning was sitting quietly, acting as a nude model for the art students.
I stopped in my tracks, staring incredulously at the people inside, frozen in place.
Wasn't Zhao Ning doing live streams with me? Why is she working as a nude model at school?
Zhao Ning saw me too, but he couldn't move yet, so he just smiled at me.
"Hey, isn't this the male internet celebrity who's been with Gu Mo?" Song Yuan walked over and said with a smile.
"Is he the man who did the live stream with Gu Mo?" Song Yuan's lackey asked in agreement.
As they spoke, the two of them pulled out a video of us dancing live and called to the other classmates: "Everyone come and see, no wonder Gu Mo couldn't wait to go to a hotel with him, he's really good-looking."
"That gesture is really ambiguous!"
"How about we have two people perform a short dance on the spot later?"
……
Someone in the crowd made a joke about it.
Some people even deliberately imitated our dance, and the laughter grew louder and louder.
I clenched my fists, my body trembling slightly.
I don't care what they say about me, but what did Zhao Ning do wrong? He was just implicated because of me.
