Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 409 - 389: Did You Even Listen to What I Said?
She looks about 1.6 meters tall, with short hair reaching her ears, wearing a simple white T-shirt and ripped jeans, a pair of black sandals on her feet, and a black fringed bag slung over her shoulder.
Her appearance is very ordinary, even unnoticeable, perhaps because she is too thin.
But her eyes, casually staring at the car, are exceptionally bright and spirited, as if they contain two extraordinary gems.
Although she tries hard to act rebellious, aloof, and proud, somehow, Jin Jumo feels she is bluffing.
She is not as relaxed and unruly as she appears.
It seems that the indifference on her face at the moment is just a mask she is wearing!
The car soon drove off, and Jin Jumo watched the woman through the rearview mirror.
She kept looking this way until she was seated in the car and could see her no more.
Jin Jumo shifted her gaze from the rearview mirror and looked back at Gu Yan, "Is it okay to leave a girl on the roadside at this late hour?"
"Why should I care what happens to her! She insisted on getting off! Even if something happens, it’s her own doing!" Gu Yan’s words were rather cruel.
Jin Jumo pursed her lips and looked at Rong Mochen in the passenger seat.
Rong Mochen glanced back at her, his thin lips pressed together in silence for a few seconds before speaking calmly, "Stop the car."
"... What?" Gu Yan’s eyebrows twitched, looking at Rong Mochen.
"Stop. You take her back." Rong Mochen said.
"I won’t!" Gu Yan’s baby face suddenly darkened, annoyed, "I’ll take you back."
Rong Mochen frowned, his cold eyes staring at Gu Yan.
Gu Yan’s cheeks twitched, his back straightening slightly, he paused for a few seconds, frowning and mumbling, "Look at her, she looks like she frequently hangs out outside, and it’s only past ten, what could happen?"
"When Aunt Gu entrusted her to you, she surely instructed you to personally take her back. Are you going to break your promise to Aunt Gu?" Rong Mochen said coldly.
"How can this be considered breaking my promise? You all heard, it was Nie Xiaoxing herself who insisted on getting off, what does it have to do with me?"
Gu Yan raised his eyebrows, clearly unwilling to admit that his dismissive tone forced the girl to ask to get off!
Rong Mochen furrowed his long brows, looking seriously at Gu Yan, "Who are you messing with?"
Gu Yan, "Er..."
Gu Yan’s long string of sophistry choked up in his throat, stunned by Rong Mochen’s words, yet he was still defiant, pulling a face.
The car drove smoothly for about two more minutes, then Gu Yan reluctantly stopped the car on the roadside, frowned at Rong Mo, "Should I take her back first and then come here to pick you up?"
"No need!"
Rong Mochen opened the car door and got out, walked to the rear seat to open the car door, and carried Jin Jumo out.
Gu Yan was embarrassed, twitching his mouth corner, didn’t immediately drive away but watched Rong Mochen carrying Jin Jumo into a taxi before turning the steering wheel and heading towards Nie Xiaoxing’s direction.
Rong Mochen and Jin Jumo sat in the taxi, silent all the way.
The taxi arrived at the villa; Rong Mochen usually didn’t carry cash, so he asked the driver to wait for a while, and he carried Jin Jumo into the villa, asking Tan Yu to bring cash out to pay the fare.
In the living room, Rong Mochen placed Jin Jumo on the sofa, his tall figure slightly crouched in front of her, silently rolling up her sleeves to examine the injuries on her arm and shoulder.
Jin Jumo looked at his cold and silent manner, wanting to break the long-standing silence between them, softly said, "What’s going on with Gu Yan and Nie Xiaoxing?"
Rong Mochen seemed not to hear Jin Jumo speaking, his cold eyes fixed on the bruises and swelling on Jin Jumo’s arm and shoulder.
Jin Jumo cautiously glanced at the injuries on her arm, her voice growing softer, "It’s okay, I don’t feel..." pain!
Before Jin Jumo finished speaking, he suddenly pressed his finger on her injured spot.
Jin Jumo’s shoulders immediately hunched high, gasping lightly, her arm being forcibly held by him uncontrollably trembling, her Taohua eyes looking at him in panic, not daring to cry out in pain.
Rong Mochen gave her a cold glance, released his long fingers, and coldly instructed Tan Yu to fetch the medical kit.
Tan Yu had just come in from outside and immediately went to get the medical kit.
Carefully placing the medical kit on the long table in front of the sofa, Tan Yu worriedly glanced at the injury on Jin Jumo’s arm then prepared to leave.
"Aunt Tan."
Jin Jumo, however, called out to her.
Tan Yu stopped her steps, looking at Jin Jumo in confusion, "Miss, do you have any instructions?"
Jin Jumo glanced at Rong Mochen who had opened the medical kit and took out disinfecting medication and cotton swabs, her lashes flickering, looked at Tan Yu and said, "Mr. Rong and I haven’t had dinner, please prepare some food for us."
Tan Yu was slightly surprised, glanced up at the wall’s quartz clock.
It’s almost eleven, and they haven’t had dinner yet?
Tan Yu took a light breath, immediately nodded, and turned to the kitchen.
During the process of Rong Mochen disinfecting and applying medicine to Jin Jumo’s injury, she endured the slight sting without making a sound.
Watching Rong Mochen place the antiseptic and ointment back in the medical kit, Jin Jumo gently covered her shoulder with one hand, and softly said, "After applying the medicine, it feels much better now."
Rong Mochen paused slightly and looked back coldly at Jin Jumo.
Jin Jumo sighed inwardly, "You didn’t eat anything tonight, did you?"
Rong Mochen frowned, "I ate, ate a lot!"
"Uh..."
Jin Jumo lightly twitched the corner of her mouth, "Oh."
Actually, Jin Jumo knew clearly in her heart that he was just saying the opposite to annoy her; he must be hungry just like her.
Even though Rong Mochen said that he had already had dinner, in the end, he still ate something with Jin Jumo.
Despite not showing Jin Jumo a pleasant expression, Jin Jumo was already quite happy inside.
After finishing their meal, the two went upstairs together to the bedroom.
As usual, Rong Mochen went to take a shower first.
Actually, Jin Jumo used to shower first, but at some point, it changed to him going first.
Jin Jumo probably knew the reason in her heart.
He liked to shower, and when he walked out of the bathroom, his body often emitted cold air, while Jin Jumo was accustomed to snuggling up to him as soon as he got into bed.
He feared she’d get cold, so he chose to shower first.
By the time Jin Jumo finished her shower and came out, his body was no longer that cold.
Because her arm was injured, Jin Jumo didn’t dare to take a shower; she simply wiped herself down with warm water in the bathroom.
When she came out of the bathroom, someone was lounging at the bedhead as usual, habitually holding an unlit cigarette between his fingers.
Jin Jumo walked over, carefully laid flat beside him, stared straight at the white ceiling for two minutes, suddenly moved her body to snuggle into his embrace.
Rong Mochen frowned and seemed displeased as he glanced at Jin Jumo but said nothing.
Jin Jumo wrapped her injured arm around his waist, quietly lay there for a few minutes before speaking softly, "I went to see Jingyao today to make things clear."
In S City, she really had broken up with Ying Jingyao, but some things hadn’t been fully explained clearly.
So she decided to meet Ying Jingyao to sort things out.
At the same time, she wanted to tell him that she’s very happy now, and he should pursue his own happiness rather than waste time on her, because after all, time flies by, and the most costly thing is probably time!
Jin Jumo said this sentence, remained quiet for two minutes, seeing someone had no intention of speaking, then continued, "I have never liked him, at first choosing to be with him was just seeking stability and peace of mind.
He knows everything about me, I don’t have to hide my past from him. He doesn’t mind my past, nor does he mind me having Xixi and Hanhan. On the contrary, he’s very good to Xixi and Hanhan, treating them as his own.
Back then, to escape everything that had happened, I was very repulsed by the idea of connecting with anyone related to my past, so I didn’t know we would develop into this kind of relationship. And I couldn’t possibly remain single my entire life.
Even for Xixi and Hanhan, I should do my best to give them a complete family. Ying Jingyao was undoubtedly my best choice. I don’t love him, which I’m very clear about, but I still accepted his generosity and kindness against my conscience.
I’ve always felt indebted to him, I don’t want this relationship to end inexplicably, I want to make it clear to him that I’m very happy and will continue to be happy. I hope he can see my happiness, let go of his obsession, and live his own life, to find the person who can truly make him happy."
Throughout listening to Jin Jumo’s words, Rong Mochen’s brow remained furrowed, his thin lips pressed tighter and tighter.
Jin Jumo lifted her long lashes to look at Rong Mochen’s taut jaw.
Slightly propping up her upper body, Jin Jumo’s bright eyes were evidently troubled and sad, "This morning everything seemed fine, but leaving the book cafe, I didn’t know he would suddenly..."
Jin Jumo bit her lip, looking at him, "I believe you saw, I didn’t let him..."
"Let him what?" Rong Mochen suddenly stared coldly at Jin Jumo, his voice fierce.
"Uh..." Jin Jumo looked at him quietly, pursing her lips without speaking.
"Speak!"
Rong Mochen shouted.
"You, didn’t you see?" Jin Jumo’s voice was as small as it could be.
Upon hearing this, Rong Mochen was furious, instantly brushing Jin Jumo off him.
Though extremely angry, his action was measured so as not to hurt Jin Jumo.
Jin Jumo lay stiffly on the bed for a long time before resentfully lifting her eyelids to look at someone, feeling a faint sense of powerlessness in her heart.
Due to this powerlessness, Jin Jumo didn’t speak again for quite a while. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
"I don’t like it, Little Mo!"
Rong Mochen suddenly said, his voice filled with icy coldness and an unprecedented sternness, every taut line on his face showing his disgust and hatred to Jin Jumo!
Jin Jumo’s heart trembled fiercely, she looked at him with red-rimmed eyes, the sense of powerlessness within intensified.
Rong Mochen tightened his brow, lowering his stern face, his dark eyes gloomily fixed on Jin Jumo, "Do you know what I was thinking when I saw him holding you?"
