Chapter 196: Chapter 193: She Is the Woman I Love
"..."
Ying Jingyao frowned lightly, "Mom..."
"You shut up, I’ll deal with you later." Xu Ruyao scolded quietly, her eyes reddening as she looked at Ying Jingyao with both heartache and anger.
Ying Jingyao’s eyes flickered, he pressed his lips tightly, looking at Jin Jumo.
Jin Jumo felt uncomfortable inside. Sensing his gaze, she didn’t dare to lift her eyes to meet his.
"Miss Jin is young and beautiful, delicate and charming, loved by men. Though, I wonder which school Miss Jin attended before, her methods are quite advanced."
Xu Ruyao squinted her eyes, staring at Jin Jumo, her smile cold and mocking.
"..." Jin Jumo pinched her fingertips, her long lashes lowered, and stayed silent.
Seeing this, Xu Ruyao forced a faint hum from her throat, then turned to Rong Mochen, "A few days ago, President Rong was in the limelight, not only making international headlines for several days in a row, but news of President Rong was also seen across internet media and more."
Pausing, Xu Ruyao said, "President Rong just got engaged to Miss Gu, I want to ask on behalf of those curious about President Rong’s marriage plans, when does he intend to marry Miss Gu?"
Rong Mochen’s dark eyes were calm, his gaze on Xu Ruyao indifferent, and he said softly, "I thought Young Master Ying’s marriage was enough for Mrs. Ying to worry about, I didn’t expect Mrs. Ying to still have time to mind others’ business."
His tone was so light that no emotion could be heard, as if he was merely praising Xu Ruyao for her energy.
But to Xu Ruyao’s ears, it was a blatant insult on her meddling!
Especially with today’s incident!
She traveled all the way from the UK to S City, full of excited anticipation, yet it ended like this!
Thinking about it, Xu Ruyao’s face suddenly turned very ugly, her resentment and anger toward Jin Jumo nearly peaked at this moment.
She squinted her eyes, chuckling as she looked at Jin Jumo, "Miss Jin not only has good mental resilience but also good character."
Jin Jumo’s eyelashes trembled slightly.
How could she not understand the meaning behind her words?
Rong Mochen and Miss Gu’s engagement party was so grand and sensational that everyone believed his marriage to Gu Lingyi was a certainty.
Since Rong Mochen would marry Gu Lingyi, what did that make her with Rong Mochen? Just a homewrecker condemned by all, right?
How good could the character of someone willing to be a homewrecker be?
This was clearly a backhanded insult!
Maybe, in her mind, Ying Jingyao was indeed bewitched by her cunning ways.
"Mrs. Ying, you’re too modest, in terms of quality and character, how could our Little Mo compare to you, you are on..." Rong Mochen looked at Xu Ruyao coldly, his thin lips slowly opening, "a completely different level."
Hearing this, Jin Jumo immediately knitted her brows.
Xu Ruyao’s back stiffened, her face slightly paled, her chest heaving rapidly.
She certainly wasn’t foolish enough to think he was genuinely praising her!
This was clearly a surface compliment, hiding an insult, mocking her character and qualities, which couldn’t even be compared to Jin Jumo!
Yet the point that concerned Ying Jingyao was "our Little Mo" those few words.
Those words slipped out of Rong Mochen’s mouth so naturally, so casually, as if Jin Jumo really belonged to him, and Jin Jumo did not object upon hearing it.
With tightly pressed lips, Ying Jingyao stubbornly stared at Jin Jumo, his voice slightly hoarse, "Xiao Xiao, come here."
Jin Jumo slowly lifted her eyelids, her brows knitted as she looked at Ying Jingyao, her almond eyes filled with an apology.
Ying Jingyao’s eyes flashed with bitterness and sadness.
She didn’t know, what he wanted at this moment wasn’t her apology, but her standing beside him.
Hearing Ying Jingyao’s words, Xu Ruyao was furious beyond control, but mindful that they were still at the banquet, she lowered her voice and rebuked, "Don’t you think the scene is chaotic enough already? Haven’t we lost enough face for the Ying Family because of this woman? What do you want this kind of woman for?"
This kind of woman?
Jin Jumo’s teeth clenched on her lower lip, leaving a white mark.
Exactly what kind of woman was she?
Seeing Jin Jumo’s face turn pale, Ying Jingyao’s heart tightened, his brows furrowed, and he looked at Xu Ruyao with a determined tone, "Mom, she is the woman I love!"
"Love?" Xu Ruyao was trembling with rage, pointing at Jin Jumo, "You love this kind of woman, Ying Jingyao, is your brain malfunctioning? You, hmm..."
Before Xu Ruyao could finish her sentence, her face suddenly turned pale, she clutched her chest with a frown, almost losing her balance.
Ying Jingyao’s expression changed slightly, quickly reaching out to support Xu Ruyao, "Mom..."
