99: Chapter 99 I’m Yours 99: Chapter 99 I’m Yours Jing Xuan didn’t know that when she had sent the text to Su He, Su He was just about to perform a surgery.
Thus, she didn’t see her message in time.
Three minutes after Jing Xuan sent the message without a reply, she knew Su He must be busy.
At this moment, the red light turned green, and she had to go since there were other cars behind her.
But, she turned back at the next intersection.
She found a spot to park her car and headed straight for the McDonald’s.
As soon as she reached the entrance, she ran into Jiang Feng and Jiang Qi who were guarding it.
Jiang Feng and Jiang Qi’s eyes widened instantly.
“Presiden–, President Jing, why are you here?” Jiang Feng regained his composure and asked.
Jing Xuan’s face was overcast, she ignored them and pushed the door open to enter.
Neither of them dared to stop her, they exchanged glances and could only follow her inside.
“Holy shit!”
Su Heng looked up and saw Jing Xuan.
“Ms.
Xuan!”
In his heart, there was only one thought: It’s over!
Su Baobao was munching on a cheeseburger with head slightly lowered and savoring it.
Su Heng nudged him with his shoulder, “Stop eating, this is a level ten emergency!”
Su Baobao was still holding a bite of beef in his mouth, lifted his head abruptly, and met Jing Xuan’s bright and clear eyes.
Startled, he relaxed his mouth, and “plop,” the meat fell onto the table.
“Godmother, you… how come you’re here?”
Jing Xuan looked at this lovable little thing, and said irritably, “You little ungrateful kid, your mommy protected you for so long, how could you sneak around and meet with this person behind her back?
If your mommy finds out, how heartbroken would she be?”
Su Yimo suddenly felt that the burger in his hand wasn’t tasty anymore.
He did not want to make mommy sad.
Jiang Yan’s deep, dark eyes glanced at Jing Xuan, “Shall we talk?”
After that, Su Heng took Su Baobao and waited in the car.
Facing Jiang Yan’s powerful presence, Jing Xuan didn’t falter.
Her aura was not weak either; the typical demeanour of a queen, she sat down, hands crossed across her chest and leaned back in the chair casually, “Go ahead, what do you want to talk about?”
“Have you already told her about this?”
Jing Xuan nodded, “I did, but she hasn’t replied to me yet, probably busy and hasn’t seen it.”
She couldn’t keep this kind of thing from Su He.
She knows better than anyone how important Su Yimo is to Su He.
She narrowed her beautiful eyes and looked at the man sitting across from her, “Five.”
Actually, she had always called him Five, but these past years, because he was close to Tang Sirou, she had seldom interacted with them.
“I’m still calling you Five because I’ve never considered you an outsider.” She continued, “But Su Baobao, to me, is like family, I do not want to see her sad.”
Although she hardly saw Su He being sad or upset, if Jiang Yan was going to fight her for Xixi, it would be like taking her life.
The man spoke in a deep voice, “Do you think I’m going to fight with her for the child?”
“Are you not?” Jing Xuan countered.
“No.”
Jiang Yan responded immediately and firmly, “I have never thought about fighting with her for Xixi, but he is also my child, and I have the right to see him.
Also, I never thought about leaving her, so why would I fight for custody?”
“Then why did you meet with Xixi secretly without telling her?”
“That’s because I was afraid she would take Xixi and leave as soon as she found out I knew about the child’s existence.”
Jing Xuan was startled, and sure enough, her Baobao might actually do something like that.
“So, you want to use Xixi to keep her from leaving?” she asked.
The man didn’t answer her.
Even though Su He had agreed to give each other six more months, he was still scared, scared that after six months she would still want to leave.
But who knew, between him and her, there was already a knot that couldn’t be untied.
Then he has even more reason to disagree with the divorce.
“Old Antique, where are you taking me?” Su Baobao asked curiously in the car.
Moreover, Jing Xuan didn’t take him but let the Old Antique take him away—what does that mean?
Given his godmother and his mommy’s close relationship, shouldn’t he have been taken straight home?
“I’m taking you to surrender yourself to your mommy.”
Su Baobao: “…”
By the time Su He finished the surgery, it was already eight o’clock.
The surgery this afternoon was taken on at the last minute.
She didn’t want to work overtime, but sometimes she had no choice.
So normally, she would leave work on time without dallying, leaving promptly when it was time.
As she just stepped into her office, someone said to her, “Director Su, the dean just mentioned that after your surgery, he wants you to drop by his office; he’s looking for you.”
Su He nodded in response.
She went in to change her clothes, grabbed her bag, and came out.
The Dean’s office.
She didn’t knock but pushed the door and went in, because since Su Tianyi was looking for her, he wouldn’t be meeting anyone else here at this time.
“Uncle, what did you want to see me for?
Quickly tell me, I…”
Before she had finished speaking, she lifted her head and saw three people sitting inside, her pupils suddenly constricted, filled with shock and dismay!
Why is Su Yimo here?
And Jiang Yan too!
“Hi, mommy~”
This was the first time Su Baobao had seen Su He and didn’t dare go up and hug her.
Su He stood motionless, taking in everything before her, nobody knew that beneath her calm exterior a storm was raging, and her limbs felt icy cold.
A single thought echoed in her mind: Su Yimo has been found out by Jiang Yan!
Her hanging hands subconsciously clenched tightly.
A flicker of panic and tension passed through her clear and watery eyes.
All of this was noticed by the man.
The entire office was dead silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Su Tianyi stood up, breaking the silence, “Well, Susu, Jiang Yan said he had something to discuss with you, you guys chat here, I’ll head back first.”
Su Tianyi knew how to read the room, staying here would be of no benefit.
He came over, patted her shoulder, and said, “It’s okay to talk things through, everything can be worked out between husband and wife.”
To be honest, he was quite optimistic about this couple.
He previously didn’t understand, so perhaps there was some dissatisfaction with Jiang Yan, but now it seems things weren’t as they had imagined.
After speaking, he left, giving them space to themselves.
Su He looked at the father and son sitting on the couch, who looked exactly alike, and after a moment of silence, she finally said, “Su Yimo, you go out first.”
Hearing Su He call out his full name, Su Baobao got nervous, obediently stood up.
He walked over with his little legs, looked up with his little head tilted, pouting his mouth, and with a milky voice said pitifully to Su He, “Mommy, please don’t be mad at Baobao, okay?
Baobao swears never to meet Old Antique again.
I only have mommy in my heart, really, truer than pearls.”
The little guy held up three fingers in front of her, his chubby cute face extraordinarily serious.
She looked into her son’s watery big eyes, sighed, and ruffled his head, “Mommy’s not angry, wait outside for me, don’t run around.”
Su Baobao obediently nodded, “Okay, Baobao understands~”
Now only she and Jiang Yan were left in the office.
A chill seemed to permeate the entire office.
Su He sat opposite him with her body straight, her expression calmly looking at him, “Now that you know about Xixi’s existence, there is no point hiding it from me anymore.
As for the child’s custody, I also have the right to decide.
Since you’ve given up before, he will no longer have any connection with you, and you have no right to fight with me for him…”
Before she could finish her words, she was harshly interrupted by the man: “Su He, you can’t be so selfish.”
Hearing that, her brows knitted slightly, looking at him puzzled, she was selfish?
“Who told you I gave up on him?” Jiang Yan’s deep eyes fixed on her: “I didn’t even know about your pregnancy, how could I have given up?”
Her pupils shrank, he said he didn’t know about her pregnancy?
Although she had previously guessed as much, hearing it firsthand was something else entirely.
She said, “But I’ve already sent you a message, and you replied to me.
From beginning to end, I never intended to hide anything from you.”
Back then, when she found out she was pregnant, the first person she told was him.
Although there was no emotional foundation between them, he was, after all, the child’s father, and he had the right to know of the child’s existence.
A trace of grievance flashed through Jiang Yan’s deep black eyes, “That wasn’t sent by me.”
Su He was taken aback.
Following that, he recounted to her the events of the day she sent him that message.
After listening, only one thought dominated her mind: A perfect melodramatic misunderstanding!
All misunderstandings have a great partner in crime called “coincidence.”
She processed it quickly, and at the same time, she had to admit that Tang Sirou truly had a filthy heart.
The misunderstanding was resolved, but—
She looked at him resolutely, “If we get divorced, I don’t want anything else, I just want the child.”
As soon as these words fell, the man’s face instantly darkened.
His voice deepened as he said, “There’s no ‘if’.”
“What do you mean?
Are you trying to fight me for Xixi?”
Su He frowned, staring at him with a cold voice, “After our divorce, you’ll still have your own life.
For children, you can have them with your future wife.
Why must you fight me for them?
Besides, my child cannot live with a stepmother.”
“Oh?
And my child can live with a stepfather?” the man retorted.
Su He choked momentarily, “Rest assured, I won’t find him a stepfather.”
“Are you sure?”
“Positive!”
She had already thought it through before.
After divorcing Jiang Yan, she wouldn’t remarry; she just wanted to live a good life with her son alone.
“Good, our thoughts are exactly the same, I’m not going to find him a stepmother either,” the man said gravely.
Upon hearing this, Su He raised her eyebrows.
So what?
Jiang Yan stood up, taking a step that was almost two, and arrived in front of her.
Before she could react to what he was about to do, he quickly bent down, his hands propped on the back of the chair, trapping her between the chair and his chest.
She dodged slightly and leaned back, but he took advantage of the situation and pressed down further.
Feeling helpless, she could only reach out to stop him by placing her hands on his shoulders to keep him from getting any closer, glaring at him, “Jiang Yan, if you have something to say, say it.
Don’t get so close.”
The man stared at her delicate little face and asked, “Have you forgotten our six-month agreement?”
Su He: “I haven’t forgotten.”
“Then why did you bring up divorce just now?
Hmm?”
“I was just giving you an early heads-up, so you don’t back out later.”
“So, you are certain that we will still divorce after six months?” the man asked, his gaze intense.
Su He felt panicked under his scorching gaze; she always felt that if her answer didn’t satisfy him, he would devour her.
In fact, she didn’t have much confidence in the six-month agreement, mostly because she lacked confidence in herself.
She also knew that he had indeed treated her very well during this time.
And in some aspects, she truly depended on him and was accustomed to him, but nothing in life is certain, and nobody knows what will happen next.
Therefore, she didn’t dare to make a hasty decision.
Moreover, she was accustomed to creating a backup plan for herself.
“Answer me, hmm?” the man pressed closer as he asked.
His hot breath sprayed on her face like flames, scorching her skin.
“No, it’s just that I lack confidence in myself.”
“Su He, you’re backing out now?”
“I’m not backing out, okay?
I’ve said it; it’s just that I lack confidence in myself.
What if after six months, I still haven’t fallen in love with you?
Don’t I need to leave myself a way out now?”
“Anyway, Xixi can only be mine.”
After saying this, Su He’s gaze shifted elsewhere.
Mainly because his gaze was too intense.
After a moment, the man’s deep and cold voice fell, “What about me?”
She instinctively let out an “Ah,” with a giant question mark over her forehead?
“You said you only want a son, so what about me?”
Before she could speak, she heard him say, “So you can just abandon me?”
Now Su He was even more perplexed!
What was his angle here?
What did he mean by ‘abandoning’ him?
If it’s about divorce, that’s just normal procedure, right?
Where does the abandonment come in?
The man’s originally cold and handsome features had now transformed into a gentle expression, his slender eyes also held a touch of grievance as he gazed at her.
“Susu, I am yours in life and death.
In my world, there is no divorce, only widowhood.”
The man’s voice was deep, smooth as jade, but also carried a hint of cold ruthlessness and deep affection, disorienting for a moment.
Su He felt a tingling numbness all over, as if her whole heart had been electrocuted.
She furrowed her brow, “Jiang Yan, what has gotten into you?”
“You’ve already had my child, which means we’re tied together for life, to give our child a complete family.”
“If you’re worried that six months is not enough, then we can extend the time.
After all, I have all the time in the world to be with you.”
Su He: “So, Jiang Yan, are you playing me?
Changing your mind just like that?”
Jiang Yan: “Before, I didn’t know there was Xixi between us, but now it’s different.”
He stroked her cheek, saying softly, “Wife, you’ve hidden our son from me for so long, I should claim some interest from you for that, right?
That’s not too much to ask, is it?”
“I didn’t hide anything from you.”
“But I didn’t receive any of your messages, so the mistake isn’t entirely on me.”
Su He felt like he was just being unreasonable.
“So, it’s my fault now?” She retorted.
The man raised an eyebrow, “If you had called me at the time, things would have been different.”
In an instant, Su He was speechless.
So, the fault now lies with her?
Had she gone from being right to wrong?
Jiang Yan saw her little face crumpled in anger and couldn’t help but laugh, then pinched her chin with one hand and bent down to kiss her cherry-like red lips.
“Be good, don’t be angry, I won’t fight over the son with you, because I am also yours,” the man whispered into her ear while gently biting her earlobe.
Su He was rendered speechless by his flirty tactics.
“Jiang Yan, you…
mmh…”
Before she could finish her sentence, the distinct knuckles of his hand pinched her chin, and those cool, thin lips pressed down again.
He bit her lip, as if punishing her speech, then his tenderness returned as always.
His kiss always took her to that empty sky, making her feel hollow inside.
That breathless feeling, making her want more.
Unconsciously, her slender hands clung to his shoulders like vines, tightly twisting together.
A sly glint flickered through the man’s deep eyes.
After a fiercely passionate kiss, he let her go, then scooped her up by the waist, changing positions to have her straddled on his lap.
She hadn’t even recovered her senses yet when the man’s large hand had already grasped the back of her head, bringing another kiss down.
If Su He didn’t know that this man truly abstained from women, she would suspect that he’d kissed countless women to perfect his kissing skills, utterly irresistible.
…
Later, he held her, and she lay weakly on his chest, their breaths already in disarray, barely avoiding a mishap in her little uncle’s office.
If something happened in there and little uncle found out, they’d surely be torn apart!
The man’s low and husky voice resonated in her ear: “You’ve always thought I liked Tang Sirou, just because you overheard me telling her ‘I love you’, right?”
Upon hearing this, Su He blinked her moist, starry eyes, her butterfly-like lashes still clinging with a few small droplets of water.
She took a moment, then looked up at him and countered, “Are you saying you didn’t say that?”
The man paused for a second, then answered, “I did say it, but you could also say I didn’t.”
