Chapter 135: Accidents come too quickly
The silver moon in the night sky was bright and gentle, with the stars around it especially dazzling. The tree trunks on either side of the road rustled as the evening breeze blew through.
Ms. Qin Xuesu walked around the corner carrying a bag, just pulled the key to the courtyard gate from her bag, and looked up to witness a scene that left her dumbfounded. She was stunned for a long time before coming to her senses, rubbing her eyes in disbelief, seeing a tall and a short figure standing very close together. From her angle, she could clearly see the happy smiles on their faces.
"Nie Cenjin." A sharp angry shout suddenly pierced through the silent sky. Qin Xuesu’s eyes widened as she hurriedly rushed toward her.
The moment Cen Jin heard the angry shout, her scalp tingled and her back went cold. Turning her head, she saw Qin Xuesu, with a bag in one hand and a key in the other, running towards her at the speed of light. This frightened Cen Jin so much that she took two steps back, and hurriedly pulled Jiang Baizhou’s clothes to shield herself, stammering, "Mom... Mom..."
The surprise came too fast like a tornado, catching Cen Jin off guard.
Jiang Baizhou was also stunned, but instinctively shielded Cen Jin behind him, and spoke, "Aunt Qin..."
Ms. Qin Xuesu stood in front of them, her gaze darting between them, her facial expression ever-changing, making it seem like she was furious.
Once the two followed Ms. Qin Xuesu into the villa, they sat properly on the couch. Ms. Qin Xuesu first made a phone call to Miss Yu Hui, then placed a glass of juice on the coffee table and pushed it towards Jiang Baizhou.
Seeing Ms. Qin being so calm, Cen Jin couldn’t help but swallow, drumming her heart, cautiously glancing at Ms. Qin’s expression, hesitating whether to break the silence first, but not knowing what to say. Thinking for a moment, she glanced at the placid and composed Jiang Baizhou beside her, gently pushed him, signaling with a sidelong glance for him to speak first.
Jiang Baizhou did indeed catch the glance Cen Jin sent over, but didn’t grasp her meaning. He glanced at the juice on the table, picked it up, and handed it to her, "Want a drink?"
