Ning Fengmian: "Oh."
Just an "oh"? No other response?
Okay, Mom is a bit of a tsundere.
Ning Qiluo then said, "Mom, I miss you so much, I really, really miss you, so I've decided to come back to see you and Dad in a couple of days."
"Aren't you watching me?" Ms. Ning's tone didn't seem very friendly.
"..."
Ning Qiluo quickly corrected herself and said, "Yes, I came back to see my most beautiful and gentlest mother."
Ms. Ning seemed satisfied: "Then come back, but you can't come back empty-handed. You decide what to buy yourself, don't ask me a single question. At least make me happy and satisfied before I open the door for you to come home. Otherwise, you can go homeless."
Ning Qiluo hesitated: "I have a father..."
Ning Fengmian: "Your father is also under my jurisdiction."
Ning Qiluo: "Okay, Mom."
Whatever happens, just obey.
This is an unchanging truth in the Qi family, a truth that even she, the second-in-command of the Qi family, must obediently follow.
"By the way, Mom, some friends online said that you were a mistress, so I was born to your stepmother." Ning Qiluo deliberately brought up the comments she had just seen online to her mother.
However, Ms. Ning's reaction to these words was indifferent: "If you don't come home, you really are born to a stepmother, and a daughter at that. In order to secure my position, I will kick you out of the house."
Ning Qiluo: "..."
What a cruel mother.
Sure enough, insisting on going home this time was the wisest thing she did.
Otherwise, if she doesn't go back, her mother will remove her from the Qi family and she'll have to become a homeless person.
After happily ending her call with her mother, Ning Qiluo glanced at the time; it was almost nine o'clock.
Why hasn't Jiang Yingchi returned yet?
She glanced out the window.
Upon looking, she saw a tall figure standing outside the car. He stood about a meter away from the car door, with his back to her. He didn't open the door to get in, nor did he knock on the window to remind her. He was just outside.
When Ning Qiluo got out of the car, she forgot to put on her coat.
A gust of cold wind blew in, and she shivered. It was really cold in Beicheng at the end of November, and this year's New Year's Day would definitely be especially cold.
Hearing the sound of the car door open, Jiang Yingchi turned around and saw her exposed shoulder. He frowned, took off his coat, draped it over her, and pulled it tighter around her.
"You didn't even put on a coat after getting off the bus?" The tone was slightly reproachful.
“I forgot,” Ning Qiluo leaned closer to him, “Why aren’t you getting in the car? It’s so cold outside, it’s warmer inside.”
The little girl's voice was soft and sweet, making one's heart flutter.
Jiang Yingchi's eyes dimmed slightly. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, his deep voice whispering in her ear, "A Luo, do you know, I love you."
Ning Qiluo was used to it and didn't find it sentimental. After all, he had just told her in the car not long ago that she must marry him and become his Mrs. Jiang.
Ning Qiluo then replied to him, "Me too."
Jiang Yingchi asked her, "Do you love me too?"
Ning Qiluo nodded.
"Say it." His gaze was devout and earnest.
The words "I love you" are not usually said lightly. Ning Qiluo found it hard to say them, even though she truly loved him. She just felt that saying them would feel a little strange.
With a playful grin, she asked, "How long have you been standing outside? Were you just thinking about how you love me and how I love you the whole time?"
Jiang Yingchi didn't say anything, but lowered his head and kissed her.
A-Luo, I really love you so much.
