It took the threatened lass a long time to think over her answer before she eventually insistently nodded her head. "Well, believe it or not, I've passed my exams and that's it! If you don't believe me, go check it out yourself!"
She was certain that the busy man would not do something so senseless like tasking his men to check her results at Prestige High School.
Sure enough, the man pinched her cheeks and lightly smirked, "You'd better not lie to me."
…
Ruan Qingtong soon found a reason to leave the villa with her son as quickly as possible.
In her eyes, Jiang Mianmian was a little vixen who was only capable of seduction.
She watched the little vixen, with a look of regret, bent at her waist to tug her son's hand. "Chenchen, aren't you staying for a few more days? If your godpa is busy… I can play games with you, too."
The little boy blinked his innocent-looking eyes.
Even though he was reluctant to get close to this pretty big sister because he had seen his godfather doing those embarrassing things to her…
She sounded so gentle… that he just could not hate her no matter what.
In his tender voice, he replied, "But, big sister… I have to attend an enrichment class today."
His mother, in a gentle and humble tone, said, "Muqian, Ms. Zhan, I'll be bringing Chenchen to his enrichment class now. Sorry for last night's trouble."
As Mianmian sent them out, she trailed behind Ruan Qingtong and meaningfully added, "It's no bother! Besides, you'll eventually be marrying my second uncle. It's a trend to try out marriages these days, so you two should start cohabiting soon!"
Hints of bashful embarrassment appeared on the latter's exquisite face of makeup. "Well, it's too tough on Muqian… since he is usually in the military base. Plus, Chenchen is still young, and this is the age when boys are the most hyperactive and are a real handful…"
When she boarded the car, the lass was still waving at the little boy through the window. "Darling, remember to think of me~"
Looking like an adorable doll, Chenchen nodded solemnly with his long curly lashes drooping down and reddened face.
…
After sending away this mother-son pair, Jiang Mianmian leisurely strolled back to the house, completely ignoring the gloomy-faced general.
Halfway back, she was suddenly pinched hard on her soft fleshy butt. Startled, she hissed in pain as her brows squished together.
"You're very fond of calling me 'Second Uncle', huh?" breathed Zhan Muqian eerily in his deep voice, "Zhan Qiyou could be considered an unforgettable old love of yours. Are you that desperate to marry him and address me as 'Second Uncle' like him?"
The girl's expression, which an unaffected and charming smile was on her face moments ago, suddenly changed and stiffened. "Cut the nonsense, Uncle Zhan!"
With a light push, the high-and-mighty man pinned her at the side of the entrance hall and hooked her chin up with a finger, his tone taunting. "It's a well-known fact that you fell head over heels in love with that nephew of mine and were always trailing behind like him like a little lackey. Need I talk nonsense?"
Her teeth were clenched as she shot him an infuriated look. "I don't love him at all! What's the big deal about Zhan Qiyou? Why should I be in love with him?!"
The military man silently slid his hand down below her waist and with his slightly coarse fingers, roughly and forcibly kneaded her tender butt cheek.
The taunt in his curved lips seemed to be undisguised. While teasing her body, he harshly said to her, "Is that so? Well, it doesn't matter if you admit it or not since you're already a married woman, Jiang Mianmian. No matter how brokenhearted you are, you'd better keep it in your heart and keep your legs in tight rein from now on, otherwise—"
"Zhan Muqian!" She raised her hand high in the air and unceremoniously made a move to deliver a slap to the man's dashing face—
