Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1992: Chapter 1991: Jin Zheyu, Let Go of Xiaocha

Originally, Wen Ran had sought out Mo Xiuchen during the banquet, asking him to have a word with those reporters so they wouldn’t write nonsense in tomorrow’s reports.

Who would have thought that, while Father Bai, Mother Bai, Luo Haofeng, and others were seeing the guests off, another incident would occur?

A black sports car stopped at the hotel entrance, and Jin Zheyu, dressed in a shirt and trousers, appeared with an air of confidence, holding a bouquet of roses.

He happened to run into the departing reporters.

Although he had been abroad for more than a year, with the high-profile presence of Star Summer Film and Television and his sister Jin Fengjiao’s revelations in the morning, he was quickly surrounded by reporters upon entering.

”Young Master Jin, are you here to see your girlfriend with the roses?”

”Young Master Jin, is your girlfriend really Miss Jing Xiaocha?”

Jin Zheyu glanced towards the hall, his gaze sweeping around, not seeing Jing Xiaocha but spotting Wen Jin, who was holding a glass and conversing with another middle-aged man.

Just from the profile, Wen Jin seemed cultured and elegant, with an extraordinary demeanor.

Jin Zheyu tightened his hold on the flowers slightly, recalling the scene of Jing Xiaocha getting into Wen Jin’s car that day.

And then he thought of how that man was the one Xiaocha had always liked, and how Xiaocha had refused to accept him because of that man.

A sliver of jealousy unwittingly grew from the depths of his heart.

Perhaps having heard the commotion from the reporters, Wen Jin turned his head slowly, his gaze moving towards the entrance.

He met Jin Zheyu’s eyes, which were filled with complex emotions. Wen Jin’s dark eyes narrowed slightly, then returned to calmness.

Like a deep pool, showing no hint of disturbance.

On the contrary, young Jin Zheyu appeared immature and restless in front of Wen Jin.

The elevator doors opened, and Jing Xiaocha, Bai Xiaoxiao, Wen Ran, and others emerged from the elevator.

Seeing Jin Zheyu and the group of reporters at the entrance, Jing Xiaocha’s expression changed slightly, instinctively stepping back towards the elevator.

Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao were also surprised, not expecting Jin Zheyu to appear here.

Holding a bouquet of vibrant red roses, their first thought was that Jin Zheyu was here for Jing Xiaocha.

Indeed, when Jin Zheyu saw Jing Xiaocha stepping out of the elevator, his eyes brightened. Before Jing Xiaocha could step back into the elevator, he raised his voice joyfully and called out, ”Xiaocha.”

Then he strode over to Jing Xiaocha, ignoring everyone around, and looked deeply into the bewildered face of Jing Xiaocha, ”Xiaocha, my feelings for you are like these roses... Please agree to be my girlfriend.”

Some guests in the hall had not yet left and were now drawn to Zheyu and Jing Xiaocha.

The flashlights continued to flicker as Jing Xiaocha instinctively raised her hand to cover her face, but Jin Zheyu thrust the roses into her arms, holding the hand she raised to block her face, and turned to the reporters, ”Please don’t take photos.”

”Young Master Jin, isn’t Miss Jing already your girlfriend? Why are you still confessing to her?”

A reporter asked the question on everyone’s mind, and Jing Xiaocha, held by him, struggled as Jin Zheyu whispered in her ear, ”Xiaocha, I’ll explain later.”

From Wen Jin’s angle, the scene of Zheyu whispering in Jing Xiaocha’s ear overlapped with the earlier image of Jing Xiaocha falling into his arms, his thin lips accidentally brushing her earlobe.

He frowned slightly, the color in his eyes lightening a bit.

Jin Zheyu then responded to the reporters’ question, ”It’s a misunderstanding. I’ve been pursuing Xiaocha all along, and until this moment, Xiaocha hasn’t accepted my pursuit or become my girlfriend.”

At this, Jin Zheyu’s face showed a gentle and confident smile, ”But I’m confident that one day Xiaocha will see my sincerity and accept my feelings. Here, I take this opportunity to express my stance: I, Jin Zheyu, will marry no one but Jing Xiaocha.”

Even as he spoke, Jin Zheyu did not release his grip.

Unable to break free from his hold, Jing Xiaocha listened to his words, her face flushed with urgency. She glanced at Wen Jin in the distance, his expression indifferent, and before she knew it, blurted out, ”Senior Jin, I’m sorry, I can’t be your girlfriend.”

Jin Zheyu’s smile froze instantly.

One moment, he was filled with confidence; the next, he looked in surprise at Xiaocha’s flushed eyes.

Having known Jing Xiaocha for years, in his eyes, she was kinder and more innocent than most girls.

She was kind-hearted, innocent, and sometimes as blank as a sheet of paper.

Yet filled with sunshine, energy, and resilience.

Moreover, Jing Xiaocha understood different occasions and knew how to save others’ face. Jin Zheyu had banked on her not embarrassing him in public when he decided to come here and confess after getting his sister’s call.

Unexpectedly, the result was like this.

The reporters were also stunned by Xiaocha’s words.

However, within a second, the flashlights continued to flicker, and now the questions were directed at Jing Xiaocha, ”Miss Jing, why did you reject Young Master Jin?”

”Do you have a boyfriend?”

Wen Ran frowned, knowing that if the reporters continued with such questions, tomorrow’s news would be even more chaotic.

She couldn’t help but speak, ”Xiaocha doesn’t have a boyfriend; she’s just young and doesn’t want to date.”

”Mr. Jin, please let go of Xiaocha.”

Wen Ran said as she reached out to help Jing Xiaocha.

Bai Xiaoxiao echoed, ”We still have things to do, please make way.”

Jin Zheyu glanced at Wen Ran; under her clear and firm gaze, he instinctively pressed his lips together, his voice stubborn with a tinge of harshness, ”Mrs. Mo, I still have something to say to Xiaocha.”

The implication being, he had no intention of letting go of Jing Xiaocha just yet.

Unwilling to accept being rejected like this.

The atmosphere suddenly grew tense.

A flicker of displeasure crossed Wen Ran’s eyes as she looked at Jing Xiaocha’s flushed eyes. Just as she was about to speak, a low and indifferent voice interrupted, ”Let her go.”

The voice was soft but carried undeniable authority and chill.

Everyone turned towards the source of the voice, surprise flashing in Wen Ran’s eyes as she saw Wen Jin striding over.

Wen Jin still held a cup in his hand.

But the cup was empty.

His gaze, calm and cold, swept over Jin Zheyu and the surrounding reporters, and he looked steadily at Jing Xiaocha, who was caught by Jin Zheyu and looked utterly astonished.

In Jin Zheyu’s eyes, there was a fire burning as he looked at Wen Jin.

It was the jealous rage of a meeting between rivals in love.

The reporters exchanged glances but no one spoke; they only widened their eyes, eager to see what would unfold next.

Wen Jin stopped two steps away, speaking once more, his voice even deeper than before, ”Jin Zheyu, let go of Xiaocha.”

This time, he addressed Jin Zheyu by his full name.
