Chapter 280: Chapter 280: The Qilin’s Blessing_1 Chapter 280: Chapter 280: The Qilin’s Blessing_1 Provincial town, He Family Residence
From the moment he entered the villa complex, He Rongxi started to feel restless. As a businessman, he was well aware that news within their circles traveled fast. His recent detention had utterly ridiculed his pride which he had carefully cultivated since childhood.
He was unsure how he was being ridiculed by the aristocrats and his peers!
His eyes dark and gloomy, he glanced at Jing Tong, seated next to him and He Jinlan on the co-driver’s seat. His dissatisfaction and loathing for Jing Tong, who caused him much displeasure with her recent actions, was increasing.
The woman who used to bewitch him completely, who was a lady outside and a temptress in bed, had changed. The sight of Jing Tong looking at Huo Beijiang was like a thorn in his heart, constantly pricking him.
He wished he could remove that thorn at once.
Moreover, the words of Jiang Nanfei echoed in his mind. Years ago, when Sha Sha’s mother was still alive, their contacts had been secretive. He could only spare a measly ten days to spend with Jing Tong each month. But what about the remaining twenty days?
Could this provocative woman truly endure the loneliness?
He was fine until he started thinking about it, but once he did, it made him sick. The image of Jing Tong cheating on him seemed to loom before him, causing his eyes to be filled with blood vessels.
“Rongxi? We are home, Rongxi.” Jing Tong, with a light smile, called out gently.
He Rongxi looked at her with an icy stare, got off the car, and unlike his usual gentlemanly gesture of opening her door, he directly walked towards the villa’s living room.
Jing Tong, sitting in the back seat, clenched her fist so hard that her nails dug into her thighs.
“Jiang! Nan! Fei!” she said each word distinctly, wishing she could tear Jiang Nanfei apart to vent her anger.
All the way home, she knew how He Rongxi’s gaze made her feel spine-chillingly dreadful. She realized that she had crossed his line, and he began to doubt her past.
With this thought, Jing Tong let out a cold snort, her face showing raw resentment and coldness.
How ungrateful of He Rongxi! She had devoted her best years to him. In the past, she had been humiliated as his secret lover while he enjoyed the bounty of a doting wife and a bevy of beauties outside.
Unable to control his own libido, yet expecting her loyalty to him alone.
“Mom, what should we do?” He Jinlan turned her head from the co-driver’s seat in apprehension, “Dad seems to be angry. Why is he mad?”
“Him?” Jing Tong responded in a teasing tone, “Men’s jealousy, I guess!”
“Then… Are you going to explain? I believe you, mom.”
“Don’t. You haven’t tasted the ecstasy yet, so you don’t know how unbearable the loneliness can be. Even I wouldn’t believe myself.”
He Jinlan was unable to keep up her hypocritical facade any longer and widened her eyes in shock. “Mom… Mom, you…”
Jing Tong gently stroked her soft cheeks. The pleasant touch and elasticity made her use a bit more power to the point that she was pinching her. Ah, youth! Her skin was even more delicate when she was young!
Now that she was old, her skin no longer maintained its youthful smoothness and charm, even the man dared to disrespect her.
“Mom, it hurts…” He Jinlan’s eyes welled up with tears, looking all the more pitiable.
However, Jing Tong seemed oblivious and laughed a bit hysterically. She spoke seductively, “Jinlan, you haven’t tasted that kind of pleasure yet, have you?”
