The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

Chapter 1394: I Only Want You (92)

"You were the one who didn't want me in the first place," Jing Chu said with tears in her eyes. Just how did something like this happen to me? I can't believe Pei Ling is my son.

Jing Chu teared up uncontrollably at the thought of Pei Ling calling her "Mommy" when she first met him at the kindergarten.

"Did I say that I didn't want you?"

"You didn't, but your actions spoke louder than words." He let go of Jing Chu and allowed her to sit up straight beside him.

"My mother was diagnosed with lung cancer two years ago and she wanted me to marry Tian Tian. She refused to accept anyone else as her daughter-in-law except Tian Tian. However, Tian Tian and I were only married in name and I didn't want her to have my children either."

He had come to the decision to tell her everything tonight, after much consideration.

He was afraid that she would develop feelings for the divorced Su Yan.

After all, Su Yan was a pretty good catch.

Jing Chu placed a hand on her face and began bawling loudly, completely losing control of her emotions. She screeched, "How could you do this to me? I've already made up my mind to sever all ties with you and yet you're telling me now that your son is my son too? Pei Yi, why did you do this to me? How did I let you down in any way!?! You knew clearly that I wasn't the one who picked up the money, yet you didn't defend me or clear the misunderstanding for me. Instead, you made me go to jail, all because she's your wife, the woman whom your mother was incredibly fond of! You made me stay imprisoned for two years!"

"I'll make it up to you."

Staring at him with tears in her eyes, Jing Chu retorted, "Make it up to me? How are you going to do that? With money? Are you going to throw me into prison again?"

"My mother is in critical condition now. I can't tell her about this or risk upsetting her, so I'll divorce Tian Tian and marry you after my mother passes away. Alright?"

He would rarely make promises to others, especially women.

Jing Chu did not want to marry him at all, although she was very concerned about her child. "I won't marry you."

Pei Yi asked in surprise, "Why? Don't you want to give our son a complete family?"

"I don't want him to grow up in an unstable environment where his security is threatened. You've killed so many people and made so many enemies. I would be putting myself in danger by marrying you. You're just like a ticking time bomb. Why would I get close to you if I know that you're dangerous? Besides, you don't care about me at all. Once bitten, twice shy. Just let me meet Pei Ling frequently from now on."

"…"

However, it was not the outcome that Pei Yi wanted. He decided to reveal the truth to her in hopes that she would return to him. He had never met her face to face throughout the past two years, but he had visited the women's prison a few times before to take a few glances at her without her knowledge.

It seemed that it was necessary to adopt a tougher attitude.

"Jing Chu, I'm giving you two options now. One is to return to my side and be with Pei Ling every day, and the other is to sever ties with me completely. Do whatever you want with your life but you'll never get to see Pei Ling again. I'm being serious."

"…"

She would definitely pick the second option if he did not drag Pei Ling into this. Yet…

"I'll make a decision after seeing the DNA report."

"We'll get a DNA test done now."

"It's nighttime now!"

"You can get it done anytime as long as you have money." He then got inside the driver's seat and took her away.

He headed back to Mount Qingping and placed Pei Ling on the backseat of the car. She stared at Pei Ling, who was sitting quietly on the child booster seat, wanting to caress his head but unable to bring herself to do so.

Pei Ling was very obedient and did not throw any tantrums at all. Instead, he was focused on playing with the toy in his hand and did not make a single sound.

Pei Yi brought the two of them to the DNA test center.

The test center had already closed for the day. However, two men appeared at the entrance to welcome them shortly after Pei Yi made a call.

Pei Yi handed Jing Chu's and Pei Ling's hair samples to the men and instructed them to get the test carried out.

He had already gotten a DNA test carried out using Pei Ling's and Tian Tian's samples a few months after he was born.

Hence, he already knew what the results would be.

Meanwhile, Jing Chu was extremely jittery and nervous to the point that her hands began to tremble.

She stared at Pei Ling, filled with anger.

"Why did you stop going to the mansion during those two weeks? Did you get tired of me?"

"I didn't visit you because my mother asked about you. If I had gotten sick of you, what do you think I'm doing now?"

Jing Chu said, "Your mother said that she would kill me if I ever dare to show up in front of you again. She wanted me to remember that I'll never be worthy of an extraordinary man like you. I'm just a small fry and I was indeed terrified. You're so afraid of your mother. I'm really surprised."

Pei Yi explained, "I'm not afraid of my mother, I just want her to die without any regrets. That's why I had been fulfilling her wishes and refraining from upsetting her. I had been living with my mother ever since I was a child and she had done a lot for me. If my mother was healthy and well, I wouldn't have let you be imprisoned or married Tian Tian. I don't think Pei Ling would exist either. Believe it or not, I won't hurt you again from now on."

Jing Chu cocked her head toward the window, refusing to answer him.

She was initially exhausted after a long day of babysitting. However, she was extremely awake now, completely rid of sleepiness. Thus, she waited quietly for the results.

Two hours later, the results were finally out. Pei Ling had dozed off while waiting.

The moment she saw the test report, Jing Chu knew that she would never be able to sever ties with Pei Yi for the rest of her life.

Now that she knew of her child's existence, she could not just sit back and ignore that fact.

Although she did not give birth to him physically, he was still her flesh and blood, after all.

Hence, she chose the first option that he gave her, just so she could see Pei Ling every day.

He drove her back to the Su family mansion.

"I'm giving you another night to consider. Think about it before telling me your answer."

She said softly, "I don't need to consider anymore. I want to see Pei Ling every day. I was planning to work hard and lead a fulfilling life on my own, but I guess that's not going to happen. I have nothing to my name anyway. All I have is this life of mine."

He alighted from the car and opened the door of the backseat to stare at her.

"What are you looking at?" Jing Chu questioned.

"You."

"What's there to look at!?!"

"I don't know, but you're really good-looking."

Although Jing Chu knew that he could be a sweet-talker at times, she felt that he was merely sugarcoating his words.

"Move away, I'm alighting now."

He did as he was told and said, "I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow."

"Okay."

"Unblock all of my numbers tonight."

"Okay."

She returned to the Su family mansion, overwhelmed with a mix of emotions.
