397: Chapter 197 (Must Read!) Public Confrontation, Wife’s Rival!
“You…
like Jun, don’t you?”
When Liang Yaqi asked this question, Jiang Yilan was shocked.
She even felt a bit nervous for a mont.
She awkwardly looked at Liang Yaqi and asked, “Liang, why would you suddenly ask that?”
Liang Yaqi smiled, “It’s nothing, just answer truthfully, of course, if you find this question offensive, you can choose not to answer.”
Jiang Yilan thought for a while, then lifted her head and cautiously ventured, “Then I’d like to ask Liang, do you like Jun?”
Liang Yaqi hadn’t expected Jiang Yilan to counter-question her.
Since the other party was still not willing to express her feelings, Liang decided to be frank, nodding her head in response, “Yes.”
Jiang Yilan, hearing this answer, seed to have been prepared ntally.
Liang Yaqi then asked, “You should be able to tell your answer now, right?”
This ti, Jiang Yilan didn’t hesitate and nodded, saying, “Sa as Liang, I also like Jun.”
“Here cos the question,” Liang Yaqi asked with a smile, “Who do you think he likes?”
Jiang Yilan hadn’t expected Liang Yaqi to ask such direct questions tonight.
It made her sowhat uneasy.
Jiang Yilan even lowered her head in embarrassnt, replying, “I don’t know yet.”
Listening to her, Liang Yaqi promptly suggested, “If you really like him, you should take so initiative.”
“Ah?” Jiang Yilan was quite surprised.
Theoretically, the two of them were rivals in love.
Even though they normally got along peacefully on the surface, they were still rivals!
But what was the issue now?
Liang Yaqi shockingly told Jiang Yilan to be more proactive.
This left Jiang Yilan confused and surprised, not knowing what exactly Liang Yaqi intended to convey.
Liang Yaqi, sensing Jiang Yilan’s bewildernt, then explained, “Because I think being able to love soone is a very beautiful thing.
Aren’t you very happy when you’re with Jun?”
Jiang Yilan’s cheeks turned red, and she nodded, “Indeed.”
“See?” Liang Yaqi smiled, “I like him too, and even helping him run his company is a happy thing for .
But he has his choices, right?
If he eventually chooses you, or another woman, and not , I will respect his decision.”
“But until then, I will definitely do everything I can to actively pursue him.”
Although Liang Yaqi’s words sounded casual,
they felt more like a challenge.
While Jiang Yilan had never been in love before and hadn’t encountered such a situation, she was not foolish; she understood the significance of those words.
Jiang Yilan looked at Liang Yaqi and finally nodded, “Okay, I will make him notice too.”
“Whatever happens, he has been hurt before, suffered from heartache.
Regardless of whether he chooses another woman or not, if he chooses one of us, promise , you’ll take good care of him.
Don’t worry, if he finally chooses you, then my role will just be Yingying’s godmother.” Liang Yaqi suddenly extended her pinky finger.
Jiang Yilan was sowhat surprised, but eventually, she also extended her pinky finger.
The two of them linked pinkies.
Thus, the won’s pledge at that mont seed to turn into a so-called solemn vow.
No matter who ended up with Jun, they had to be good to each other.
At that ti, Jun was on his way ho.
He had no idea that the two won at ho were making a pinky promise.
A public pursuit had officially started.
When Jun got ho.
The living room was empty.
Jun knew both won had gone back to their bedrooms.
So he decided to go into his daughter’s room.
At that mont, Yingying had kicked her blanket aside and was sleeping soundly.
Jun moved forward to cover her with the blanket.
He then finished washing up and returned to his room.
But aside from Yingying who was asleep,
None of the three adults had fallen asleep.
Jiang Yilan was still pondering over the words Liang Yaqi had said.
She was ssaging Yuanyuan.
When Yuanyuan learned about this, she was quite surprised.
Yuanyuan: “Are you saying Liang Yaqi wants to openly compete with you for Jun?”
Jiang Yilan: “Yes, she told tonight.”
Yuanyuan imdiately analyzed, “She might be threatening you to stay away from Jun.”
Jiang Yilan: “I don’t think so; she was just plainly telling this and then agreed, no matter who ends up with Jun, we should both treat him and Yingying well.”
Yuanyuan: “Oh my goodness, I could cry, but I guess she might want to back out by saying that, aiming to let you two be together.”
Jiang Yilan: “I don’t think so; her expression was very serious when she said it, with no intention of backing out.”
Yuanyuan: “It’s over, Lanlan, it looks like you have t a strong competitor.
Jun must be really outstanding for both of you to like him so much, even I am starting to think…
”
Jiang Yilan: “Don’t even think about it!
You are my best friend.”
Yuanyuan: “Haha, just kidding.
I am not planning to date so soon, but I do hope you can be with Jun, because in all these years I’ve known you, I’ve rarely seen you care so much about a man.
I don’t want it all to be in vain.”
Jiang Yilan: “I hope so.”
Yuanyuan: “By the way, isn’t there a possibility that Jun might want both?”
Jiang Yilan: “Ah?”
Yuanyuan: “Don’t be shocked.
Haven’t you watched Korean dramas?
It’s quite normal for wealthy n to live with two won.
Plus, we’ve seen Jun’s financial capabilities; he now runs a company and owns such a large duplex.
This definitely qualifies him as a tycoon in Modu.”
Jiang Yilan fell into deep thought.
Yes, if Yuanyuan hadn’t reminded her, she might still be struggling with competing against Liang Yaqi.
But now, what if Jun chooses both of them?
What should she do by then?
Could she accept it?
Jiang Yilan still didn’t know.
She wasn’t clear herself either.
All she felt was that finding a man who loved her wholeheartedly and spending the rest of her life with him would be such a blissful thing.
Ever since Han Yuanyuan had brought it up, Jiang Yilan had beco even more sleepless.
In the room next door, Liang Yaqi was also awake, staring at the ceiling.
She tried to recall the won who had appeared beside Gao Jun.
The Assistant Manager Xu from the hotpot branch.
Equally curvaceous and pretty.
Then there was the Manager He from the gym they had briefly t on opening day, who was just as busty, for everyone knows that “youthful” never appears alone, always followed by two more words.
Thus, including Sun Miao, there turned out to be five won who had appeared beside Gao Jun.
Liang Yaqi also believed that the other two won must have had so feelings for Gao Jun.
Thinking this, she secretly made a decision.
Either to peacefully remain Gao Yingying’s godmother.
Or to strive to beco Gao Yingying’s stepmother.
If Gao Jun never made a decision, then she would beco the woman among them with the most say.
A woman’s importance in a man’s heart.
Depended on her value.
A good figure and pretty face, that was value.
Being able to cook, keeping the house tidy, that was also value.
Being able to help him in his career, that was even more value.
Thus, Liang Yaqi firmly believed that as long as she did not give up, her position in Gao Jun’s heart would not be easily shaken.
…
The next morning.
Gao Jun had woken up early.
This ti he did not let Liang Yaqi take Jiang Yilan and Gao Yingying to school.
He felt he needed to play the role of a father.
So, dressing up early, he went to school with Liang Yaqi, Jiang Yilan, and Gao Yingying.
Before getting out of the car, Liang Yaqi and Gao Yingying waved their hands, “Yingying, your godmother will co to pick you up in the afternoon.”
“Okay.”
“Listen to Miss Jiang at school, okay?”
“Okay.”
At that mont, Liang Yaqi turned to Jiang Yilan and smiled, “I know you will also take good care of her.”
The words sounded like an admonition, but also like a declaration of war.
Jiang Yilan nodded.
With last night’s conversation, she wasn’t as uneasy and nervous as before, “I will.”
Then she took Gao Yingying’s hand, as if leading her own daughter, and walked into the campus.
Gao Jun, seeing Liang Yaqi continuously looking in the direction of Gao Yingying and Jiang Yilan, curiously asked, “Why do you look a bit reluctant today?”
Liang Yaqi turned her head back and laughed, “Because I won’t be able to see Yingying for the whole day, of course I’m reluctant.”
“But you can see ,” Gao Jun chuckled.
Liang Yaqi urged, “Co on, let’s drive, we need to go back to the office, besides, you’re a busy man, sotis seeing you is harder than seeing Yingying.”
“Look at what you’re saying,” Gao Jun said as he drove Liang Yaqi to the office.
Elsewhere.
Ye Xiaowei said to Li Ya, “Mom, I don’t have classes this morning, how about we go for a walk in the park?”
“Sure,” Li Ya glanced at the ti and said, “Mom has a eting this afternoon, so I can spend the morning with you and then you’ll go back to school and I’ll head to the office, okay?”
“Okay.”
Over the past few days, the relationship between Ye Xiaowei and Li Ya had grown closer.
They had endless topics to talk about.
It seed like the suppressed family education over the years had constrained them.
While walking, Ye Xiaowei suddenly thought of Gao Jun, and then asked Li Ya, “Mom, can I ask Jun to co out?”
Li Ya’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she awkwardly smiled, “Why?
Do you want him to join us for a walk?”
“Yes, yes, I think you should try to get to know Jun, he’s my…” Ye Xiaowei hesitated for two seconds.
During that ti, Li Ya’s heart had raced.
She feared Ye Xiaowei would say, “He’s my boyfriend.”
But Ye Xiaowei continued, “He’s my good friend, who encouraged when I was most helpless, without him, our mother-daughter relationship wouldn’t be like this now.”
“Okay.” Li Ya nodded, pulling out her phone intending to contact Gao Jun.
But the next second, she thought of sothing else, then turned to Ye Xiaowei and said, “Why don’t you call him and see if he’s free?”
“Okay.” Ye Xiaowei took out her phone and ssaged Gao Jun.
At the sa ti, Li Ya also sent a ssage to Gao Jun: [Weiwei wants you to join us for a walk, but I’m with her now.
If the three of us et at the sa ti, it might be a bit awkward.]
Gao Jun: [I understand, I’ll decline her.]
Li Ya: [Thank you.]
Sure enough, Ye Xiaowei looked sowhat disappointed as she told Li Ya, “Jun is a bit busy.”
“That’s normal.
After all, he’s working now, and we shouldn’t disrupt him, right?” Li Ya consoled.
The mother and daughter continued their walk.
But with every step, Li Ya’s mood grew heavier.
She wondered if she had stolen Weiwei’s boyfriend…
