Chapter 793 - I am Jing Jing’s boyfriend
PA Wen opened his mouth to speak but chickened out of his confession in the end. “Were you the ‘girlfriend’ who sent lunch to me?”
“Don’t overthink. Yezi suggested that we do so to piss off that junior of yours,” Xiao Yaojing scoffed, “and I only agreed to the suggestion because of my promise to Wen Shan.”
PA Wen could only keep quiet when Xiao Yaojing talked so aggressively.
He would be lying if he said he wasn’t disappointed though.
Xiao Yaojing’s phone rang as she was holding the cold towel for PA Wen. PA Wen peeked at her phone and immediately knew who it was when he saw “Grand Empress Dowager” calling.
Xiao Yaojing didn’t look too happy to receive the call.
“What are you looking at? Never seen a phone ring before?” Xiao Yaojing grumbled before she grabbed her phone and answered the call. The person on the other end of the line spoke before Xiao Yaojing did.
“Have you found a job, Jing Jing? Your third aunt said that she knows someone who works at a bank in B City. Handsome young man, she said, and she managed to get his number! I am sending the number to you. Do something; talk to him. You are hitting your thirties; can’t you take this more seriously? Owning a house is not the same as having a family. Women should get married eventually, you—”
“Mother, mother, mother, what about me?” Xiao Yaojing interrupted her mother, “you complained when I didn’t have a house, then complained about me not having a boyfriend when I finally got a house. You—”
“So what? Why are you raising your voice? Who do you think I am doing all this for? Why do you think I am so worried? You never think about me. What if I died…”
Xiao Yaojing didn’t get to hear the rest of her mother’s sentence because PA Wen had snatched the phone from her before she could react.
“Hello, Auntie. I am Jing Jing’s boyfriend. I would love to pay you a visit sometime but Jing Jing and I are kind of in the middle of something right now. We will call you back later,” said PA Wen, who quickly dodged before Xiao Yaojing could hit him again.
“What? I have plenty of experience in situations like this. I only helped you as a friend, don’t take it too seriously,” said PA Wen as he tossed Xiao Yaojing’s phone at her.
Xiao Yaojing was still stunned at what happened and did not say a word.
Noticing that Xiao Yaojing had calmed down, PA Wen continued, “it will only provoke your mother even more if you argued with her. She would have bought a train ticket and showed up at your doorstep before you know it.”
Xiao Yaojing’s phone vibrated as she received a message. She pounced on it before PA Wen could look at it. “God damn it, Wen Tao, my mom is going to buy a flight ticket and fly over here now.”
PA Wen had already fled to the door. If he had learnt anything from Xiao Yaojing after all these years, it was how to run faster . 1
Wen Tao opened the door and trapped Xiao Yaojing inside her house. “Consider it a technical error, I didn’t know that our mothers were so different. Feel free to call me if your mother does show up at your doorstep. I will be going now.”
“Stay there, Wen Tao. I will kill you, I tell you!” Xiao Yaojing shouted from inside the house while trying to pull the door open, but to no avail.
PA Wen shuddered and decided to leave the place. He had reached the stairs by the time Xiao Yaojing managed to open the door and there was no way that Xiao Yaojing could outrun him.
“Very well, Wen Tao. Don’t let me see you again.” Xiao Yaojing said angrily as she walked back to her unit.
PA Wen ran down the stairs without stopping. He leaned against his car door and panted heavily, still feeling the jitters from Xiao Yaojing’s violence.
