Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Huo Jinnan held onto the swing’s rope with one hand, his gaze fixed on Qin Huan the entire time, ”Hmm, Nuannuan, what’s up?”

Wen Nuan glanced at the people surrounding them in the classroom, then stood up and left the room, ”Brother-in-law, are you... are you and Sister Huanhuan having a falling out?”

Huo Jinnan, ”No.”

Wen Nuan cautiously asked, ”Then... that day—”

Huo Jinnan spoke in a low voice, ”That day I was a bit busy and went out. She was bored at home by herself, so she went to see a movie with you, Nuannuan. If you’re not busy on the weekends, come over more often.”

Wen Nuan exclaimed happily, ”Sure!”

Right after she spoke, she remembered that she had to go to Qin Shaojin’s place to work off a debt and said with regret, ”I... I have to go to Jinshan Jinmei Law Firm this weekend.”

Huo Jinnan saw the smoke being blown towards Qin Huan by the wind and snuffed out the cigarette between his fingers, ”Interning?”

Wen Nuan curled the corner of her mouth and said with a lack of pride, ”No, cleaning.”

”...” Huo Jinnan frowned and after a moment, he asked in a low voice, ”Has Qin Shaojin been bullying you?”

Thinking of how she’d been ordered around every time she went there, Wen Nuan nodded vigorously, ”Mhmm.”

Huo Jinnan asked in a low voice, ”What happened?”

Wen Nuan’s voice became much softer, ”I accidentally damaged his car, and the repair costs were expensive. That time, his checkbook was missing from his wallet, a million.”

When he thought about Qin Shaojin, a slight curve formed on Huo Jinnan’s thin lips, ”How did it get damaged?”

Wen Nuan became frustrated just thinking about it, ”Once, I kicked a small stone on the road and accidentally splashed it onto his car, chipping a bit of the paint. I was in his car, and after we argued a bit, he crashed the front of the car into a guardrail or something. I didn’t see clearly, but the front of the car was smashed.”

Huo Jinnan remained silent; Qin Xiaosan’s method was too—

Wen Nuan hurriedly added, ”Brother-in-law, don’t get me wrong, I’m not asking to borrow money from you. I’ll just pay him back slowly, I’m already doing it in installments with interest.”

After giving Qin Huan a quick glance, Huo Jinnan thought about how Qin Shaojin would also be going to Law University as a distinguished professor, ”Nuannuan, his driving skills are too good for you to cause him to have an accident, and as for the check, I don’t think he ever keeps his checks in his wallet.”

Wen Nuan’s eyes widened in surprise, ”Really?”

Clutching the cigarette butt in his hand, Huo Jinnan spoke with a low, velvety voice, ”The Qin Shaojin I know has always been like that.”

Feeling the revelation, Wen Nuan clenched her fist in anger; does this mean that headliner Qin was just conning her?

That despicable headliner Qin, shameless Xiaosan! How could someone be like this?

She had annoyed him a few times, but did he need to bully her like this?

No, she couldn’t let it end like this!

Taking a deep breath, she tried to calm the rising anger in her heart, but it just wouldn’t be suppressed!

Lately, she’d been polishing his shoes, washing his trousers, laundering his suits, making his coffee—almost like an ancient handmaiden!

Massaging her head, she said, ”Thanks, brother-in-law. Take good care of my Sister Huanhuan, and please, don’t let the matter with my aunt cause a rift between you two.”

”Hmm, it won’t,” Huo Jinnan replied softly.

”Alright then, I’m going to hang up now.”

Wen Nuan ended the call hastily, gripping her phone as she searched for Qin Shaojin’s number, about to call when she suddenly felt she lacked the firepower to confront him!

What would be the best way to get back at him? How could she vent her frustration?

Rubbing her chest, she quickly returned to the classroom as the bell rang for class, not hearing a word the teacher said, her mind completely consumed with thoughts of revenge!

Suddenly, she thought of a plot from a novel, and whispered to herself, ”I’ve got it.”
