Chapter 142: Chapter 142: I Won’t Force You to Be With Chapter 142: Chapter 142: I Won’t Force You to Be With In fact, the staff at the household registration office had already prepared the content that Xiao Jinghan had requested on their computers. They were just waiting for the order from Mr. Xiao.
Now that the ultimate big BOSS had spoken, they could confidently click ‘confirm’.
After the data was uploaded, the initial staff mber stood up and said to Ye Weiwei, “Alright, Miss Ye, your daughter has been successfully registered. If you wish to be in the sa household as your daughter, you can bring your temporary household registration book to us. It won’t take more than five minutes to sort out.”
Ye Weiwei smiled and waved her hand, “No need.”
“Hmm, the original household registration book will be delivered to the Xiao Family by a dedicated person. If Miss Ye wants to see it, just ask Mr. Xiao. Since there’s nothing else, we’ll be going now!”
With that, the three staff mbers dashed out of Ye Weiwei’s house as if their feet were equipped with whirlwind wheels.
With the staff gone, Ye Weiwei’s expression suddenly turned gloomy. She looked at the little girl, who was happy for having obtained her household registration, and then turned to go to the kitchen.
The little girl exchanged glances with Xiao Jinghan before they went their separate ways.
The little one went to wash up, while the grown-up headed to the kitchen to find Ye Weiwei.
“Weiwei, are you not happy?” Xiao Jinghan stood at the kitchen door, asking the girl in a low voice.
Ye Weiwei didn’t turn around. Holding a carrot in one hand and a knife in the other, she replied indifferently, “No, I should be thanking Mr. Xiao.”
Xiao Jinghan knew that when she addressed him as Mr. Xiao, she definitely didn’t want him close.
But the more she didn’t want him close, the closer he wanted to be.
Xiao Jinghan was no saint; when he encountered a woman he liked, he would resort to any ans to bring her to his side.
Otherwise, what was the point of being single all these years, while others around him indulged in displays of affection?
“Xiao… Jing… Han.”
Feeling a tight grip around her waist, Ye Weiwei was startled and let go of the knife and carrot, reaching to grab the man’s arm instead, “Let go of .”
“I’m sorry!”
Xiao Jinghan’s lips landed a centiter from her neck.
The heat wafted over every inch of her neck, making her entire body stiffen.
“Let go of first!”
“This is just a temporary asure; I didn’t want to see Xixi end up at the orphanage waiting for the outco,” Xiao Jinghan didn’t loosen his grip but held her even tighter, “I’ve said before, if you’re unhappy, you can move out. Xixi is your daughter, I won’t force her to leave you, likewise, I won’t force you to be with .”
Ye Weiwei was typically soone who didn’t respond well to coercion.
If Xiao Jinghan had threatened her with force and told her she had to like him, she would have beaten him up and run away with her daughter without a second thought.
But now, he was lowering his posture, apologizing, and being upfront about his feelings.
She couldn’t bring herself to hit him.
“Then, let go first.” Ye Weiwei’s voice was noticeably softer than before.
The corners of Xiao Jinghan’s mouth twitched up slightly, but he still didn’t let go, “Ye Weiwei, you’re not angry with for registering Xixi, right?”
“Hmm… Not angry. After all, you’re helping Xixi. We mother and daughter owe you a favor,” Ye Weiwei said in a low voice.
“Then what about us…” Xiao Jinghan spoke very slowly, taking into account Ye Weiwei’s feelings.
Ye Weiwei steeled herself, “There’s no chance for anything between us. Xiao Jinghan, I’m different from wealthy people like you; I’ve had complicated experiences, and I know what I need and what suits . You’re not within the range of what I need.”
“How do you know I’m not what you need if you’ve never tried?” Xiao Jinghan asked.
“That kind of thing doesn’t need a trial. Our auras don’t match; it’s inborn.”
