Chapter 1000 - 1000 986 speaking with heavy breathing (3)

Chapter 1000: 986, speaking with heavy breathing (3) Chapter 1000: 986, speaking with heavy breathing (3) Bai Jue looked at Black Jack, as unaffected as a dead pig is to boiling water, “Black Jack, it’s not easy being a daughter-in-law, I’m rooting for you.”

Black Jack sprang to his feet, and Bai Jue zipped out of the room in the blink of an eye, sprinting at the speed of a 100-meter dash, clearly showing a strong will to survive.

After finishing breakfast, the two had just sat down in the living room when Mo Xiao came back from a walk with Jian Wei.

“Luoluo, you two…” Jian Wei sat down on the opposite sofa, lifting her eyes to the two of them, her face a picture of surprise.

Jian Luo thought she had realized the nature of their relationship and immediately grew nervous.

“How did you two get dark circles under your eyes overnight? Did you not rest well?” Jian Wei continued.

Jian Luo held his forehead.

Oh mother, you take my breath away with your wild guesses.

“We were playing video games last night.”

Jian Wei uttered an “Oh” and didn’t pursue the matter further, only advising them to rest well.

“Mom, have some water.” Jian Luo poured a glass of water and handed it to her.

Jian Qing smiled and reached out to take the glass, but the sight of the ring on his hand caught her peripheral vision, her gaze flickering darkly for a moment.

She took the glass, and as she was about to look away, she caught a glimpse of the matching ring on Black Jack’s hand and made a bold guess in the depths of her heart.

Could it be that they two…

“Mom, we have to step out for a bit, we won’t be back for lunch,” Jian Luo said, glancing at his wristwatch.

Jian Wei nodded with a smile on her lips, “Okay.”

Black Jack stood up as well, grabbed the car keys, and they both left together.

It wasn’t until their figures had vanished from her sight that Jian Wei’s gaze finally shifted away, the water in her cup untouched and placed back on the table.

“An, is there something you haven’t told me?”

Mo Xiao understood and cracked a faint smile, “You noticed?”

Indeed, she had guessed it.

Jian Wei turned to face him, her expression remarkably calm, “So, our son is married too? And our daughter-in-law is Black Jack?”

Mo Xiao nodded.

“…”

Jian Wei felt incredibly… complex at that moment!

Waking up one morning to find out that both her son and daughter were married.

Now she had a special “daughter-in-law.”

The shock was a bit much; she needed time to digest it.

Mo Xiao knew it would be hard for her to accept it right away, so he sat silently by her side, giving her space to calm down.

At that point, Jian Qing’s family of four returned.

“Dad, Mom!”

Mo Xiao gave a slight nod, and Jian Qing, looking at the somewhat dazed Jian Wei, was completely baffled.

“Dad, what’s wrong with Mom?”

“Weiwei found out about Luo Luo and their affairs,” Mo Xiao explained.

Jian Qing scratched his head, surprised that Luo Luo and the others were exposed so quickly.

He had thought they might make it through the day.

Jian Qing very calmly said, “Qingqing, come with me back to the room.”

“Okay.” Jian Qing glanced at Mo Xiao, then walked over to help her.

Back in the room, Jian Wei poured herself a glass of water and guzzled it down.

Jian Qing patted her on the back, concerned she might choke, “Mom, drink slower.”

“Qingqing, tell me about Luoluo and Black Jack,” Jian Wei said after putting down her glass, “in detail.”

Jian Qing didn’t expect her mother to be so composed, feeling slightly surprised before recounting the matter between Jian Luo and Black Jack, focusing on the key points.

After listening, Jian Wei felt the last bit of awkwardness in her heart disappear.

She took Jian Qing’s hand, her eyes and eyebrows tinged with a bit of guilt, “Qingqing, it’s all my fault. If it weren’t for me, when you and Luoluo were little, you wouldn’t have…”

“Mom, everything’s in the past, and look, we’re doing just fine now,” Jian Qing interrupted her, speaking warmly.

“As long as we’re together as a family now, that’s better than anything.”

Jian Wei hummed in agreement, her face breaking into a smile again.

“So, Mom, what do you think about Black Jack?” Jian Qing tentatively asked.

Jian Wei raised an eyebrow, “Another son, well, that should count as picking up a bargain for me!”

Jian Qing chuckled, “Yeah, it’s quite the bargain.”

In the afternoon, when Jian Luo and Black Jack came back, they immediately sensed that something was off with the atmosphere.

In the living room, aside from the two little treasures, everyone was present, giving off the vibe of a family tribunal.

“What are you all doing?” Jian Luo, looking at the people seated on the sofa, had an ominous premonition.

Jian Wei was stern-faced, “Waiting for you two.”

Jian Luo reflexively looked towards Jian Qing and seeing her nod, felt a sudden thump in his heart.

Damn, the thing he feared most had still happened.

Black Jack stepped forward, took Jian Luo’s hand in front of everyone, and then looked at Jian Wei seriously.

“Jian Luo and I are together now. Please support us, Mom!”

Bai Jue bowed his head, his shoulders subtly shaking.

Jian Wei lifted her gaze, looking sharply at him, “Maybe hold off on calling me ‘Mom’ for now.”

Thinking that Jian Wei disagreed, Jian Luo panicked and gripped Black Jack’s hand back, “Mom, Black Jack and I are already married. We didn’t tell you earlier because we were afraid the excitement might be too much for you to handle; I’m sorry. But whether you bless us or not, I still want to be with him.”

Jian Qing was secretly chuckling inwardly, her foolish little brother!

Jian Wei tried to keep a straight face, “Do you really like him that much? Is it that you have to be with him?”

“Very much so, I have to be with him,” Jian Luo declared resolutely.

Black Jack glanced sideways at him, his thin lips curling into a warm smile.

Jian Wei instantly failed to keep her composure and couldn’t help but laugh.

The others couldn’t hold back anymore either and burst into loud laughter.

“Hahaha!”

“What is this…” Jian Luo was dumbfounded.

Seeing the situation, how could Black Jack not understand.

They had been played.

Jian Wei couldn’t stop the laughter, tears streaming down her face, “Tsk tsk, so my Luoluo’s confession is this adorable.”

Rumbles of thunder seemed to roll over Jian Luo’s head.

“…”

Without a doubt, he had been tricked by his dear mother.

“Black Jack, aren’t you going to quickly call your mother-in-law?” Bai Jue teased.

Black Jack kicked him without hesitation, “I’ll settle the score with you later.”

“Sis, can’t you guys be a bit more decent?” Jian Luo complained from the bottom of his heart.

Jian Qing raised her hands, smiling innocently, “The prank was Mom’s idea, it’s got nothing to do with us.”

“Since you didn’t tell me, it’s only right to give you a little scare,” Jian Wei huffed lightly.

Jian Luo quickly moved to her side, squeezing out Mo Xiao, took a seat beside her, and affectionately linked arms with her, “Mom, thank you.”

Mo Xiao, pushed aside for the second time, struggled to contain the primitive power stirring within him.

Jian Wei patted his head, mischievously saying, “You did have good taste; the son-in-law you found for me is quite handsome.”

Jian Luo’s eyes crinkled with a smile, “I think so, too.”

The mother and son were enjoying a good chat, but as for the one being called ‘son-in-law’, Black Jack was the only one who knew the complexity of his feelings.

Suddenly, Mo Xiao’s phone rang.

He pulled out his phone, saw the caller ID, his eyes darkening slightly, then took the phone outside to answer the call.
