Chapter 450: 450: Yin Qin Rejects Ji Baixing’s Approach (Fourth Update)
My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early
âLuo Xiaolang, letâs get married ahead of schedule.â
Luo Xiaolang just stared at Yin Qin.
She looked at Yin Qin who had suddenly appeared at her front door, urging her very seriously, very earnestly and very sincerely to marry him ahead of schedule.
She had thought they might not even have a wedding.
She didnât speak, as she didnât know how to respond.
Yin Qin came closer, âI hope we can have the wedding sooner. I want everyone to know that weâre married.â
Luo Xiaolang wondered if Yin Qin had been shocked again.
Just a moment ago, wasnât he still saying he couldnât abandon Ji Baixing? That he never could in his whole life.
So why does he now want to marry her right away?
She didnât understand.
Her master said that people outside were complicated.
She felt that they are even more complicated than what her master described.
She didnât know how to answer him.
âIâll choose a time. You just need to prepare yourself and leave the rest to me,â Yin Qin said urgently.
He was very anxious.
What was he anxious about?
Did he fear not having a wedding?
But why would he be afraid?
Shouldnât she be the one to worry?
âWhatâs wrong with you?â Luo Xiaolang couldnât help asking him.
Suddenly, whatâs wrong?
âI just really want to get married now, really want to have the wedding now.â
âBut Ji Baixingâ¦â
âThere will be no Ji Baixing from now on,â Yin Qin said bluntly âIn the future, there will just be me, you, and the little tiger â
Luo Xiaolang still didnât understand.
She somewhat doubted, was Yin Qin possessed?
âI will announce our wedding date soon, next week. Iâve decided, next Sunday. I donât care whether the day is auspicious or not, we will just have our wedding!â
Luo Xiaolang stared at him blankly.
Was he really in such a hurry?
She felt that Yin Qinâs change was very drastic!
Suddenly, Yin Qin cupped Luo Xiaolangâs face and pecked her on the lips.
Luo Xiaolangâs face flushed slightly.
Yin Qin said, âRest well these days, although I donât expect you to look much prettier, but being a little better is still better.â
Luo Xiaolang nodded silently, nodding again and again.
Anyway.
Whatever Yin Qin said, it would be.
She was used to obedience.
Yin Qin said, âIâll go and tell my mother so she doesnât do anything reckless today.â
With that, he hastily left the room.
Luo Xiaolang stared at the direction where Yin Qin had disappeared.
In the end.
Should she look forward to it?
This sudden⦠wedding.
Yin Qin knocked on his motherâs door.
Yin Bin opened the door.
At that moment he almost hit his son, the only reason he didnât was because he knew he couldnât win.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He really didnât know when his son gained this ability to take down four bodyguards!
Yin Bin strenuously maintained his dignity, saying coldly, âYou have the nerve to show up!â
âWhereâs mom?â
âShe doesnât want to see you.â
âThen could you tell her that Iâve decided to move the wedding ahead of schedule, it will be next Sunday. It might be a bit rushed, please ask her to help me with preparations,â Yin Qin said, his voice loud.
It was obvious that he intentionally said it aloud for people inside the room to hear.
Upon hearing that Yin Qin was suddenly getting married, Qin Keqin came rushing out.
Yin Bin wished she could slow down, isnât she an elderly pregnant woman?
Could she be a little more mindful of her condition?
âWho are you marrying?â Qin Keqin asked harshly.
âOf course, itâs Luo Xiaolang. Who else did you think?â
âAre you sick or something!â Qin Keqin couldnât help cursing.
âMom, could you please see your son as a normal person.â
âI really fear youâre mentally challenged!â
âMom!â
âAre you sure you want to get married?â Qin Keqin asked, disbelieving. âAnd youâre getting married next Sunday?â
âYes, Iâm sure. Please arrange it for me. Iâll announce the engagement in a while.â
âIâm telling you, I can tolerate you not marrying now, but once you are married, if you dare to do anything to Luo Xiaolang, I will really kill you. Iâm not joking!â Qin Keqin said seriously.
âI know, I know what Iâm doing.â Yin Qin nodded.
âYin Qin, marriage is not childâs play. I donât want you to follow in your fatherâs and my footsteps. Do you really think Iâve had a good life the last few decades?â
âI know, Iâm not blind.â He knew that his mother had actually been quite repressed, but she hid it well.
âBefore marriage, I can tolerate your feelings for Xiaolang being inadequate. No matter what, Xiaolang being pregnant with your child is not your fault. The reason I didnât stop you today is because you werenât wrong in the matter of your relationship with Xiaolang. So, I tolerated your care for Ji Baixing, I tolerated your inability to let go of Ji Baixing and even your love for her. But marriage is your own choice. Before this, everything was forced on you, but everything later on would be by your own will. Once you make a decision, you have to take responsibility for it!â
âRelax, I know what Iâm doing.â Yin Qin asserted.
He was very clear that this was his own choice.
He chose Luo Xiaolang, chose to be responsible for her, chose to be responsible for the little tiger. He wouldnât have another love interest.
He had decided to spend the rest of his life with Luo Xiaolang.
Just because itâs hard to fall in love doesnât mean you canât.
After spending so much time together, he didnât think there was anything wrong with life with Luo Xiaolang. On the contrary, he sometimes felt strangely warm.
He felt that this was enough.
As for Ji Baixingâ¦
Ji Baixing is the past.
A beautiful past.
Keep it for occasional reminiscing, thatâs all.
âIn that case, leave the wedding arrangements to me,â Qin Keqin said.
âThank you.â Yin Qin smiled, âAh, Iâm really tired. Iâm going to bed.â
Yin Qin turned around and walked away.
Looking at Yin Qinâs back, Qin Keqin muttered to herself, âYin Qin suddenly wants to marry Luo Xiaolang, even if I can see his sincerity, it still makes me feel uneasy.â
âYou should stop thinking about it. Since Yin Qin said heâll get married immediately, it must be to cut off all his feelings for Ji Baixing. Trust your son, he knows what heâs choosing.â
âItâs not that I donât want to trust him, but this guyâ¦â Qin Keqin paused, âTo truly let go of a deeply loved one from the bottom of oneâs heart, it shouldnât be as easy as he makes it seem. Shouldnât it be painful?â
âIt is painful.â Yin Bin chimed in.
Qin Keqin turned to look at him.
Yin Bin began to doubt whether he had said something wrong.
Qin Keqin enunciated every word, âYouâve experienced it, havenât you?â
Yin Bin truly felt like crying but had no tears.
How could every matter somehow involve him?
He leaned in close to Qin Keqin, a devilish smile on his face, âMiss Qin, are you losing your temper on purpose because you want me to kiss you?â
Qin Keqinâs foot landed hard on Yin Binâs leg.
Yin Bin grimaced in pain.
âDamn, idiot!â
Qin Keqin advanced towards her room.
Yin Bin clutched his leg.
That being said, this move was quite effective.
If Qin Keqin mentioned something he didnât want to hear in the future, he would simply⦠force her into submission!
The news of Yin Qinâs upcoming marriage to Luo Xiaolang instantly spread to every nook and cranny of Jin City.
A moment ago, rumors were flying about the lingering love between Yin Qin and Ji Baixin, only for everyone to be utterly dumfounded by the sudden announcement.
Yin Qin personally announced the wedding date on her Weibo account.
Then, she unveiled to the media that she and Luo Xiaolang were about to host their wedding.
Immediately.
The news about âYin Qin and Luo Xiaolangâs weddingâ hit the headlines.
Ji Baixin saw it.
She had just finished preparing the outfit for todayâs âHeavenâs Hallâ competition, when she saw the headline about Yin Qinâs marriage announcement.
She remained silent for a long time.
Just silent for a very long time.
âBoss,â her assistant called her from the side.
Ji Baixin snapped back to reality.
âBoss, weâre running out of time,â the assistant reminded her.
Indeed, her sudden emotional shift was noteworthy. It was like something monumental had happened, like the sky was falling.
The assistant didnât dare to probe further.
Ji Baixin said, forcing down her emotions, âLetâs go.â
She led her assistant to the set.
She oversaw her staff as they dressed each contestant in the prepared outfits.
The costumes were truly stunning.
All performance costumes are somewhat exaggerated. Each one featured a subtle shimmer in the light, lifting the appeal of the stage. All the contestants loved them.
The assistant couldnât help but comment, âBoss, this design is truly outstanding.â
Ji Baixing responded, albeit unenthusiastically.
The assistant refrained from disturbing her further.
Once Ji Baixing finished her work, she turned around to find Yin Qin.
Yin Qin had also come backstage to check on the preparations.
The two of them met again.
Although they had only been apart for a day, it felt like an eternity had passed.
Ji Baixin said, âYouâre here.â
âI came to check the preparations.â
âI just helped them change into the costumes. Two groups of contestants have just gone for rehearsal, the stage effects are great, everyone says they look good.â
âThey are indeed beautiful, I saw them outside,â Yin Qin replied.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became awkward and tense between them.
Ji Baixin gave a small smile, âI saw the news.â
âHuh?â
âThe news about the wedding.â
Yin Qin nodded, âNext Sunday. If youâre free, come and join.â
âSure, Iâll be there,â Ji Baixin said.
âIâll look around over there.â
âYin Qin,â Ji Baixin called him back before he could leave.
Yin Qin turned back to look at her.
âYin Qin, if you donât mind, I want to personally design your wedding suit,â Ji Baixin took the initiative to say.
She wanted him to wear her design.
Even if she wasnât the bride.
âNo need, my mother has already ordered someone to custom make it. She has arranged everything for both Xiaolangâs and mine. If I rejected her offer, she would kill me! You know my mother is a high-risk pregnant woman, I donât dare to provoke her,â Yin Qin said humorously, refusing the offer.
âIs that so?â Ji Baixin seemed a bit disappointed.
âYou shouldnât work too hard. You have to design the costumes for âHeavenâs Hallâ and spend time designing my wedding suit? Isnât that going to tire you out? Itâs just a suit, merely a formality,â Yin Qin reasoned.
âIs the wedding merely a formality to you?â Ji Baixin asked.
Yin Qin pressed his lips together, âThe wedding is just a formality, but marriage is for life.â
Ji Baixin gave a wan smile, hiding her disappointment.
A marriage is for life.
Then he and Luo Xiaolang are going to be together for life, right?
She said, âThen, congratulations in advance.â
âThank you,â Yin Qin said, intending to leave before he paused mid-step.
Ji Baixin watched Yin Qin, feeling a slight flutter in her heart.
âBy the way,â Yin Qin began, âI forgot to tell you, Li Wenjun is having a terrible time. He upset someone and got his cheques stolen, now heâs wanted by the court. Various manufacturers are demanding payment from him, heâs like a rat crossing the street, living in fear every day in Jin City. Heâs in debt and canât leave Jin City, leading a miserable life.â
The flutter in Ji Baixingâs heart gradually cooled.
She couldnât care less about Li Wenjun now.
She was only interested in Yin Qin.
Yin Qin said, âHe asked me for money and of course, I didnât give it to him. But it shows that he doesnât have your video anymore, otherwise he would have threatened me again. You can put your mind at ease now.â
Ji Baixin gave a bleak smile.
âAlright, Iâll go over there and check,â Yin Qin said, then left.
He left without any hesitation, leaving her behind.
Yin Qin could feel Ji Baixinâs gaze on him all the while.
He relaxed into a smile.
This was the start of their relationship as friends, a gap they could never cross.
At 8 oâclock in the evening.
The âHeavenâs Hallâ program started on time.
All the actors were ready.
The pre-show sitcom started, all the contestants made their appearance. Then, at the peak of the performance, the stage suddenly plunged into darkness.
All the lights on the stage went off.
Instantly, it was all chaos.
Then suddenly, the lights came back on.
The moment they did, the awkward poses of the contestants on stage were exposed, making the entire performance a complete mess.
