Reborn in the 1970s — Married a Proud Rough Man Chapter 297 - 111: Jie Jingchen, Aren’t You Worried?

Hearing her petulant words, Jie Jingchen quickly agreed. "Okay. That’s too much money for you to take to the bank by yourself. It’s not safe. I’ll take tomorrow off and go with you."

Qin i turned to glare at Jie Jingchen, but her anger lted into a laugh. The laugh slowly transford into a cloyingly sweet smile. She seductively flicked her hair, swayed her hips, and sauntered toward him.

Jie Jingchen watched the alluring yet artificially coy Qin i, his gaze deepening. His Adam’s apple bobbed. ’She’s doing this on purpose, trying to seduce .’

Qin i drew close to Jie Jingchen, looking at his calm and composed facade. ’He looks like a true gentleman, completely unfazed.’

’So much for modesty and sha.’ She cast them aside.

Qin i sat on Jie Jingchen’s lap, wrapping her fair arms around his neck. Her fingernails toyed teasingly with the nape of his neck.

"Jingchen, aren’t you worried?" Qin i asked in a syrupy sweet voice.

Jie Jingchen placed one hand on her slender waist to keep her from falling, while his other hand rose to gently cup her delicate chin. His voice was a bit unsteady. "Worried about what?"

"That I’ll take this huge sum of money and run," Qin i said bluntly, not beating around the bush.

Hearing this, a faint, cool smile flickered in Jie Jingchen’s eyes. "You won’t."

"So certain?" Qin i was a little surprised.

"You’re not Aunt Zhang. You’re far more clever than she is. You aren’t so shortsighted that you’d only see the petty profit in front of you," Jie Jingchen said, his thumb stroking her chin suggestively.

Qin i’s eyes flickered. ’It’s hard to imagine the wealth Jing Qi possesses. Who knows if he’s even told the full extent of it today. If I hold on tight to a benefactor like him and don’t let go, I could soar.’

Not to be outdone, Qin i mimicked him, provocatively stroking his chin. "But what if I am shortsighted and only care about this little bit of profit right now?"

Jie Jingchen gave Qin i a mysterious smile, lowered his head, and pressed his lips to hers.

"Mmm." Qin i humd, neither refusing nor remaining passive. Instead, she responded with enthusiasm.

To Jie Jingchen, her response was pure encouragent. He had intended to just give her a taste before letting go, but her passionate reply made him throw courtesy to the wind. He deepened the kiss, making it long and passionate.

As the kiss went on, Qin i felt like she was suffocating. ’If he doesn’t let go soon, I think I’m going to die.’

Jie Jingchen finally released her, his heart racing and his gaze feverish. He pressed her head against his chest.

Qin i didn’t dare move. Her body went rigid, and she held her breath. ’It’s best not to provoke a man who’s been holding back. You’ll only get burned.’

After what felt like an eternity, Qin i called out, "Jie Jingchen."

Jie Jingchen didn’t say a word, trying to rein in the desire she had ignited.

"Jie Jingchen." The position was uncomfortable, so Qin i shifted in his arms.

"Don’t move," Jie Jingchen’s deep voice was sowhat hoarse.

Qin i, being obedient, truly didn’t dare to move again.

Just then, Jie Jingjue pushed the door open. "Fourth Brother, I’m back with the groceries... Um, I didn’t see anything. You two continue. I’ll go make dinner in the kitchen."

Incredibly considerate, Jie Jingjue closed the door behind him. He patted his chest. ’Good god! The look in Fourth Brother’s eyes just now... it almost scared to death.’

Qin i was speechless. ’Other than our suggestive posture, what were we even doing? "Didn’t see anything"? "You two continue"? It’s broad daylight, continue with what?’

"Let go." Qin i raised her hand and patted Jie Jingchen’s chest a few tis.

This ti, Jie Jingchen let go. Freed, Qin i leaped off his lap so quickly that she nearly twisted her ankle. With quick reflexes, Jie Jingchen caught her. "Careful."

"I’m fine." Qin i steadied herself and took a step back, keeping a safe distance from him.

"Qin i." Jie Jingchen’s voice was deep and husky. "Tonight, let’s fulfill our marital duties."

At his words, Qin i nearly choked on her own saliva.

"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH." Qin i was choking.

Jie Jingchen hadn’t been explicit, but his aning was direct enough.

"Are you okay?" Jie Jingchen stood up and put an arm around her waist, his deep eyes filled with concern.

"I’m fine, I’m fine. Just choked on my spit." ’And was shocked by what you said,’ Qin i left that part unsaid, her gaze darting away, not daring to et his.

’She loved to provoke him, especially back when he was willing but unable. Seeing his frustration gave her a sense of accomplishnt. But now that it was ti to actually *do it*, she was getting cold feet.’

"Qin i," Jie Jingchen called.

"Mmm," Qin i humd noncommittally.

"You haven’t answered yet," Jie Jingchen pressed.

The corner of Qin i’s mouth twitched as she deliberately played dumb. "Answer what?"

"Tonight, we fulfill our marital duties," Jie Jingchen repeated.

Qin i felt trapped in a predicant. She buried her face in Jie Jingchen’s chest. ’I need to be modest, I need to be modest!’ Now she rembered what modesty was. A mont ago, when she was teasing him, she’d thrown it to the far corners of the earth.

"Mmm." So as not to dampen his enthusiasm, Qin i simply humd instead of giving a direct answer.

"What does ’mmm’ an? Is that a yes or a no?" Jie Jingchen had no intention of letting her off the hook.

"Mmm ans mmm," Qin i grumbled, butting her head against his chest. He was being so dense right now.

’If I didn’t clearly refuse, doesn’t ’mmm’ an yes?’

"Well?" Jie Jingchen prompted.

Qin i snapped. She looked up, glaring at Jie Jingchen. She wanted to refuse out of spite but was afraid he’d take her seriously. So, she changed her tune completely, her tone becoming wild and domineering. "Why wait until tonight? Let’s fulfill our marital duties right now."

As she spoke, she started trying to rip off his clothes, acting like a complete vixen.

Jie Jingchen froze for a second, then grabbed her wrists to stop her from tearing at his clothes. "Qin i."

Qin i struggled against his grip. Not daring to hurt her wrist by using too much force, he let go. She imdiately went back to pulling at his clothes, urging, "Hurry up and get them off. Let’s get this over with quickly."

Hearing her say "get this over with quickly," Jie Jingchen’s face darkened.

"Mom," Jie Jingchen called out.

Qin i paused, misinterpreting his cry. "Calling for your mommy won’t help you now. C’mon, baby, just give in to ."

Hearing Qin i’s teasing tone and her calling him "baby," Jie Jingchen was stunned. He stared out the window with a complicated expression.

Outside the window, Mrs. Xie was watching the scene unfold. Her daughter-in-law was fiery and passionate, while her son was cold and impassive. Her initial embarrassnt turned into pure frustration at her son’s lack of initiative.

"Qin i." Jie Jingchen grabbed her mischievous hands and tried to signal with his eyes for her to look out the window.

However, Qin i simply didn’t get the hint. She mistook his signal for an eye twitch and prepared to tease him with even more shocking words.

’Qin i knew perfectly well that Jie Jingchen was a rational man. No matter how much she provoked him, he wouldn’t let her have her way. Now really wasn’t the ti. People would be getting off work soon. If word got out that they were fooling around in the room, she, being thick-skinned, wouldn’t care about the gossip. But Jie Jingchen was thin-skinned and would never allow such a thing to happen. That was precisely why she dared to be so audacious.’

"Qin i, Mom is outside the window," Jie Jingchen told her directly.

Qin i didn’t believe him. "Who are you trying to fool? Mom wouldn’t be here at this ti... Mom..."

Mrs. Xie was no longer outside the window. She had pushed the door right open, then quickly shut it behind her. Qin i froze, petrified. She was so embarrassed she wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it, but there were no holes to be found in the room.

Thinking about what she had just done and the brazen things she had said, Qin i wanted to bite her own tongue off. ’My image! It’s completely ruined in front of my mother-in-law!’

Qin i shot Jie Jingchen a look, blaming him. ’Mom was here, and you didn’t even warn !’

Jie Jingchen felt completely wronged. ’I called out to her directly! Not only did it not stop her, but it seed to unlock her potential. That "baby" she called made my knees weak.’

Mrs. Xie, ignoring the awkwardness, gave Jie Jingchen a look of pure frustration. "Your father is looking for you."

Jie Jingchen didn’t move, looking at his mother with suspicion.
