Chapter 540: 539: Is it worth giving up Xiaolang for Ji Baixing? (First update)

Qin Keqin’s anger rushed to her chest.

Damn Yin Qin, can his love for Ji Baixing be so boundless?!

She couldn’t control the surge of anger in her heart. She yelled at Yin Qin, “Yin Qin, to hell with you! You and Ji Baixing are actually conspiring to take the little tiger away. Are you so in love with Ji Baixing that you’ve completely lost your conscience?!”

Yin Qin was about to explain.

Ji Baixing quickly spoke, “Auntie, don’t blame Yin Qin. He’s doing this for everyone’s good. Luo Xiaolang has her own career now, having Little Tiger with her is hindering her progress. You’ve seen Luo Xiaolang’s performance in today’s international competition. She can shine in international competitions and shouldn’t give up her future because of Little Tiger! She’s still so young! It’s not worth it!”

“Whether it’s worth it or not, it’s not for you to decide!” Qin Keqin yelled back.

“I know anything I say now is wrong. In your eyes, I am an outsider. But because I wanted to be with Yin Qin genuinely, I still have to make things clear,” Ji Baixing was very persistent, not caring about how others felt and continued, “You always think that Luo Xiaolang is wronged. Yes, in this relationship between Yin Qin and Luo Xiaolang, Luo Xiaolang was left out, indeed wronged from a humanistic standpoint. But has anyone thought who caused all this? Isn’t it Luo Xiaolang herself? Fine, since Luo Xiaolang has given birth to Little Tiger, I can understand everyone’s sympathy for her. But sympathy is one thing, getting the custody of Little Tiger is another. You’re really mixing them up!”

“Ji Baixing, who do you think you are in our family to order us around?!” Qin Keqin did not hide her disgust for her.

Ji Baixin said, “I am Yin Qin’s girlfriend.”

“So you’re not married yet, right?!” Qin Keqin raised her eyebrows.

The implication was that you haven’t even married into the family, what right do you have to call the shots here?

Ji Baixing was struck speechless by Qin Keqin.

Qin Keqin said coldly, “Don’t think you can call the shots in our family without even a marriage certificate. Even if you two are married, you can’t dictate things here! It’s best if you realize your place!”

“Auntie, I know you have preconceptions against me, and I know you don’t like me. But I am really looking at this matter from the fairest perspective. Fine, I can’t convince you all now, I know you all have deep feelings for Luo Xiaolang, I won’t say anything else. Only, we should talk about Luo Xiaolang’s feelings for Little Tiger. Are her feelings for Little Tiger born out of selfless maternal love, or is it a habitual domination?!”

“What are you saying?” Qin Keqin couldn’t stand it anymore.

If it weren’t for the many years she had worked to manage her temper, she would have slapped her.

“Auntie, don’t disbelieve. Luo Xiaolang isn’t as good to Little Tiger as you think. Two incidents make it very clear. The first one, when Little Tiger was sick, Luo Xiaolang had her last national competition. That day she didn’t take care of the sick Little Tiger, instead, Yin Qin and I stayed with Little Tiger in the hospital for his treatment. She only came back to take care of Little Tiger after her competition finished. While Little Tiger was not fully recovered, she went to a banquet the next night and didn’t leave until very late. The second incident, when she went abroad for a competition. Whenever she has a competition, she abandons Little Tiger. In Luo Xiaolang’s mind, her career is more important than Little Tiger,” Je Baixin explained clearly, “Such a Luo Xiaolang isn’t fit to be Little Tiger’s mother!”

“Are you suitable?” Qin Keqin countered.

“I can take very good care of Little Tiger.”

“A woman who doesn’t even care about her own biological parents, a woman who doesn’t respect her own parents, how can I trust you to be someone else’s mother? Ji Baixing, do you think overly highly of yourself?”

“The barrier between my parents and me has long disappeared, and we have a good relationship now. I was willful before, but I have now changed my ways!”

“I rather liked your willfulness before, it wasn’t as nauseating as you are now,” Qin Keqin did not mince her words.

Ji Baixin felt terrible at that moment.

Being verbally abused so straightforwardly by Qin Keqin, without any embellishment, she felt suppressed.

She said, “Auntie, why do you dislike me so much? You never even interacted with me, how can you dislike me so much?”

“Some people, I don’t need to interact with to know what kind of person they are. Seeing you trying to snatch Little Tiger from Luo Xiaolang, I can tell you’re not a good person!”

“So everything I said was in vain.”

“People are valuable for being self-aware. Ji Baixin, you can do as you please in front of Yin Qin, but aside from Yin Qin, you’d better mind yourself!”

Ji Baixing’s face turned really bad.

She stared coldly at Qin Keqin.

Qin Keqin fought back, “Yin Qin may treat you like a treasure, but we don’t!”

“I don’t want to argue with you guys anymore.” Ji Baixin seemed unwilling to argue further with them. She felt there was no need to continue discussing something with people like this. She took out the lawyer’s letter she was holding, “This is the custody order for Little Tiger. We have to take the custody of the Little Tiger.”

“Ji Baixin!” Qin Keqin really exploded.

She said so much, but Ji Baixing simply brushed it off.

How could this woman be so irritating.

“This is the decision Yin Qin and I made…”

“Have you had enough?” Yin Qin finally spoke.

He was truly disheartened.

All along, even though they had a big fight in the office this morning, he was still thinking of mending their relationship, hoping they could carry on. He even went to the orphanage as soon as he could, and negotiated with the director about adopting a child, a child that Ji Baixin would like, so they could become a real family.

But now…

He felt humiliated for all the things he had done and thought for Ji Baixin.

What Ji Baixin wanted wasn’t a child at all, what she wanted was nothing but the darkness in her own heart!

Upon hearing Yin Qin’s words, Ji Baixin turned around and glared at him fiercely.

Her gaze was crystal clear.

She was threatening Yin Qin to keep quiet, to listen and obey her!

Yin Qin didn’t care anymore, he said, “It’s you who wanted the little tiger, not me! I never thought about taking the little tiger away from Xiaolang!”

Qin Keqin turned her head to look at her son.

She hadn’t expected that her son wouldn’t take Ji Baixin’s side today.

Normally, he would have unquestionably sided with Ji Baixin at this point.

Yet now, he was exposing Ji Baixin’s lies without leaving any room for her to maneuver.

Ji Baixin’s expression darkened.

She had assumed that in front of so many people, Yin Qin wouldn’t behave this way. She thought Yin Qin would give her face and not expose her lies.

She gave a sarcastic smile.

In that case, why should she hold back? After all, Yin Qin didn’t love her anymore. She didn’t care about how she is perceived in his eyes. She intended to throw the Yin family into chaos!

She said, “You said before that since I can’t have children anymore, you’d bring the little tiger back to our side for us to raise. Now, in front of your parents and Luo Xiaolang, you’re denying ever saying such a thing. Yin Qin, don’t you think you are being hypocritical? Why not admit it? We want the little tiger. Why not admit that the little tiger will be your only son in this life, and because I can no longer conceive after my ordeal, you’d bring him back to your side!”

“What?” In the moment Yin Qin did not respond, Qin Keqin became agitated, “You can’t conceive?”

Ji Baixin gave a sarcastic smile.

She knew very well how important the issue of carrying on the family line is in high society!

Yin Qin is the heir to the Yin family. After all, the child Qin Keqin carries is a girl. Throughout history, no family has passed on their property to their daughter instead of their son. Hence, Yin Qin would inevitably inherit everything from the Yin family. More accurately, everything is already in Yin Qin’s hands. As Yin Qin’s only son in this life, the little tiger would naturally become the lifeline of this family. Once profits get involved, the people of the Yin family would not remain indifferent.

She should have let Qin Keqin know earlier that the little tiger is the Yin family’s only heir. In this way, she didn’t have to play the bad guy. Qin Keqin would naturally find ways to bring the little tiger back.

“My inability to conceive is thanks to Yin Qin. But none of that matters anymore, good or bad relationships, have no direct correlation with the ability to conceive. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many couples who divorce even after having a child!” Ji Baixin said. At that moment, it seemed like she was mocking someone.

She was indeed ridiculing that Luo Xiaolang, even after bearing Yin Qin’s child, could not win Yin Qin’s favor.

“You can’t conceive, so you rob Luo Xiaolang’s child, your behaviour has hit a new low!” Qin Keqin gritted her teeth.

Ji Baixin’s expression turned cold.

She stared directly at Qin Keqin. Qin Keqin’s actions were completely out of sync with what she had in mind.

Shouldn’t Qin Keqin’s focus be on the fact that the little tiger is Yin Qin’s only child?!

She said, “Fine, since none of you want to be the bad guy, I will be. Let’s say I want the little tiger because I can’t have my own children, let’s say I want to treat the little tiger as my own! You can all blame me, I’ll carry it!”

“Ji Baixin, you are truly more repugnant than Lin Ximeng.” Qin Keqin would never harbor any good feelings towards Ji Baixin in her life!

Even though she was really upset when Ji Baixin took Yin Qin away from the wedding back then, at that time she only blamed her son and didn’t hold Ji Baixin responsible. After all, if Yin Qin was man enough, he wouldn’t have been absent from his wedding day. No one had a knife to his throat preventing him from attending, it was all based on his own decision. Back then she didn’t hold any malice towards Ji Baixin, but at this moment, she was thoroughly disappointed with this woman.

Is this the woman for whom Yin Qin paid such a heavy price to love?

She really felt sorry for her son.

Her previous contempt for Yin Qin had now transformed into sympathy. Sympathy for his misfortune, for encountering such a malicious woman!

“Auntie, I’ve had enough of your insults today! You’re an elder, and I don’t want to bicker with you, please show some respect!” Ji Baixin said word by word, her voice raised.

Qin Keqin really wanted to slap Ji Baixin to death.

She felt that speaking to her was a waste of breath.

She stopped speaking, she wouldn’t talk to Ji Baixin anymore. She turned directly to Yin Qin and asked him sarcastically, “For the sake of such a person as Ji Baixin, you gave up Luo Xiaolang. Do you think it’s worth it now?”

Yin Qin’s throat wavered.

Slowly.

He said, ”It wasn’t worth it.”

Ji Baixin’s face changed dramatically, “Yin Qin!”

“Really, it wasn’t worth it.” Yin Qin said, at that moment he spoke to Ji Baixin, “I really regret why, on my wedding day, I didn’t attend the ceremony to marry Luo Xiaolang and chose you instead. I dream of going back to that day. No matter what you say, I would go to the wedding without hesitation. No matter what you say, I would marry Luo Xiaolang!”

“Slap!” Ji Baixin slapped Yin Qin hard across the face, “Yin Qin, do you know what you are saying?”

“Is what I’m saying not clear to you? I said I regret being with you, I regret it to my core. I can’t wait to break up with you right now! Ji Baixin, during the time I’ve been with you, I’ve felt it’s the most painful time in my life. I don’t even want to see you, I even think that because of you, my world has become bleak, I really feel that there’s no difference from being dead. Being with you is like sitting and waiting for death!”
