Reborn With An Old Enemy On The Day Of Our Marriage Chapter 72 - Dumbfounded and in Chaos

Chapter 72 - Dumbfounded and in Chaos

Although Lin Qian was once again pushed down by Zheng PingQing, he felt comfortable with the situation and didn’t struggle. He lazily laid flat on his back and let his boyfriend press against him.

It seems that Zheng PingQing’s lower body was becoming restless again.

Lin Qian smiled up at him. “Zheng PingQing, it’s broad daylight, ah. Please conduct yourself with dignity.”

Zheng PingQing’s heart was at an uproar, but he struggled to contain himself. After grappling with his urges for half a day, he finally decided to compromise: “Just give me one kiss, ah, one kiss.”

Lin Qian lightly stroked Zheng PingQing through his pants. “That probably won’t be enough. I’ll give you two kisses.”

Zheng PingQing happily bent down as Lin Qian raised his head for a kiss.

The feeling that welled up from their hearts was so deep that even the scent of smoke felt like the greatest aphrodisiac.

Zheng PingQing, of course, broke their agreement almost immediately. After the two kisses, he tried to bite Lin Qian’s ear. But all of a sudden, a ‘crash’ sounded out from the entrance of the terrace, successfully startling the couple.

Zheng PingQing lifted his head. He didn’t know when Chen ShiYi arrived at the terrace. She was staring at them completely stupefied, her eyes full of panic. By her feet was a broken flowerpot, with black soil and purple flowers scattered all over the floor.

The mother and son locked eyes, but Chen ShiYi couldn’t say a word if her life depended on it. She could only look at Zheng PingQing with a dumbfounded expression.

Zheng PingQing was similarly shocked, but he managed to come back to his senses soon after. He turned back to Lin Qian, straightened his boyfriend’s clothes, then calmly said: “Mom, it’s bad taste to peep at other people.”

Lin Qian also sat up. Not the least bit fl.u.s.tered, he calmly looked at Chen ShiYi and chuckled. “Auntie, next time you see other people being intimate, please quietly leave or at least cough loudly. You’ve made things so awkward, ah.”

The two of them were so composed that Chen ShiYi felt like she was in some sort of trance. She even briefly wondered if she had seen an illusion and was being too unreasonable. She was quiet for a long time, but eventually, she managed to open her mouth and shakily ask: “You….you two….what were you doing?”

Lin Qian blinked. “Didn’t you clearly see?”

Zheng PingQing pointed to Lin Qian: “Kissing, ah.”

Chen ShiYi staggered and grabbed onto the gla.s.s terrace door, hanging on for dear life. Her breathing was heavy as she asked: “Do you know what that kind of behavior implies?”

Zheng PingQing yelled in his heart: Of course I know, ah! Before our rebirth, we were doing even more exciting things, ah!

But he was afraid to scare his mother into an early grave, so Zheng PingQing did his best to restrain his words. He stood up and said: “It implies being lovers, ah.”

Lin Qian stood next to Zheng PingQing and added: “Auntie, we’re already grown up. We know what we’re doing.”

Chen ShiYi had initially thought that they were just playing around. But unexpectedly, they announced their relationship and came out of the closet. This sudden turn of events made Chen ShiYi unable to react. She asked without much thought: “You two are lovers?”

“Un.” Zheng PingQing nodded without hesitation. Thinking back to all the lessons he learned from various TV dramas, he grasped Lin Qian’s hand and put on a brave face as he said: “Mom, we really do love each other. Please support us.”

Lin Qian: “….”

Lin Qian: →_→

As expected, Zheng PingQing was still a rich young master at heart. The script he’s using was for dramas that feature ‘the rich and powerful mother-in-law beating the happily married couple, showcasing the steadfast loyalty of the male lead’ plotline, ah.

Lin Qian did his best to get the plot back on track. He solemnly looked at Chen ShiYi and said: “Auntie, I’m gay, and so is Zheng PingQing. We like each other very much.”

Chen ShiYi was speechless. She thought back to all the times she saw these two together. The confusing behavior and befuddling actions&#k2026;were suddenly explained perfectly.

It wasn’t that they were enemies that simply reconciled, they were enemies that became close, too close&#k2026;so close that they fell in love with each other.

Chen ShiYi felt that she should say something, but she wasn’t Lin Qian’s mother. She didn’t have the right to tell him what to do. As for Zheng PingQing, she has been estranged from him for so long, and they just managed to make peace with each other. Also, to be honest, she never had any control over her son, ah.

After a long while, she said: “You…this, isn’t right, ah….”

Lin Qian straightened his posture and looked at her with firm eyes. He didn’t look particularly strong, but his gaze was extremely serious. It made Chen ShiYi feel an unprecedented sense of oppression.

For a moment, Chen ShiYi felt that the person standing in front of her wasn’t a child but a man much more mature, calm, and composed than herself. A man so resolute that nothing would be able to knock him down.

Unlike the other kids his age, Lin Qian dared to confront the adults. He calmly asked: “What’s wrong?”

Chen ShiYi was stunned. She wanted to say that h.o.m.os.e.xuality wasn’t right, but she was an academic who did scientific research on a daily basis. Her thinking was more advanced than her peers. She knew about natural selection and even did a thesis on the subject, ah.

She just never expected to one day face this problem in real life, ah.

She knew that h.o.m.os.e.xuality was normal, but as a parent, she couldn’t bear to let her son travel this road. Not when the world was so secular and contrary.

“You two are young and don’t understand many things. This type of thing shouldn’t be done for fun or curiosity…”

“This isn’t just some momentary thing.” Lin Qian interrupted her. “Auntie, I know it’s hard for you to accept right now, but our feelings are clear. You can accept us and try to help us, and if you can’t…”

Chen ShiYi looked at Lin Qian, feeling a little desperate.

These two children had always had strong characters, ah. She hadn’t been able to control them in the past, and she wouldn’t be able to control them now either.

What is he going to say? If she can’t, it won’t matter because they wouldn’t care? Just like how it was before.

However, Lin Qian’s reply was a lot more mature and calm than Chen ShiYi antic.i.p.ated. He smiled and told her: “We’ll wait. We can wait a year, two years, five years. Even a decade or two won’t matter. Because no matter what, we’ll always be together. You’ll have plenty of time to think things through and try to accept our relationship.”

From start to finish, Lin Qian didn’t utter a single harsh word. His tone was also the same as always- neither mean or overbearing, but light and steady. But somehow, his words gave people the impression that they were irrefutable. He had an aura that certainly didn’t belong to someone his age. Lin Qian continued: “You know that we’re no longer children and that this isn’t just for fun. I like Zheng PingQing very much. I like him so much that my feelings transcends time, ah. You don’t have to worry about him.”

Lin Qian tugged at their entwined hands. “I will take responsibility for your son.”

Zheng PingQing nodded in cooperation. Then, in a tone even firmer than Lin Qian’s, he said: “Mom, don’t worry. He has to be responsible for me, ah. He’s not allowed to find anyone else in his life; I’m going to die with him, ah.”

Lin Qian: “….” Are you trying to threaten your mother!

Chen ShiYi was so confused, and Lin Qian’s words were too determined. Against her will, she had actually felt a little moved. But the moment her son opened his mouth, any feelings she previously had dissolved in seconds.

Chen ShiYi looked at her Zheng PingQing, her heart experiencing a tremendous shock. Hearing that her son’s life depended on another person made her feel…

Chen ShiYi shuddered and didn’t dare to think about it any further.

“You two…you…” Chen ShiYi continuously mumbled, but in the end, she didn’t know what to say. Lin Qian’s att.i.tude towards the matter was abundantly clear. Chen ShiYi knew that at this point, nothing she could say would be able to stop them.

Seeing her precarious expression, Zheng PingQing couldn’t help but say: “Mom, if you exclude the h.o.m.os.e.xual part of this scenario…not that I think h.o.m.os.e.xuality is a problem, of course. But think about it carefully. Lin Qian is the perfect boyfriend, ah. He’s handsome, has good character, and has excellent grades. You can tell with a single glance that he’ll have a bright future. Ask yourself. If you had a daughter instead of a son, wouldn’t you want her to marry such an excellent boy?”

Chen ShiYi stuttered: “W-what are you talking about…”

Zheng PingQing ignored her words and continued to torture her soul: “I dare you to say out loud that you have the ability to refuse such an amazing son-in-law.”

Chen ShiYi: “…..” She was unable to refute Zheng PingQing’s words.

If she really had a daughter, Lin Qian would absolutely be her first choice. Her actual son can’t even compare to him, ah. Zheng PingQing was far less reliable than Lin Qian!

Seeing Chen ShiYi’s expression, Zheng PingQing seized the opportunity: “Mom, you can’t give up such an outstanding son-in-law just because I’m a man!”

Zheng PingQing then followed this by complaining: “How can you deprive your child of such an amazing boyfriend just because he’s a man?”

“Enough, enough. Stop talking.” Chen ShiYi felt dizzy. She pressed her fingers against her temples, still not quite believing that the situation wasn’t some hallucination.

In the end, what strange power caused her ordinarily prideful emperor son to suddenly act this way…sounding like he couldn’t wait to marry himself off and die!

Chen ShiYi finally managed to utter: “You…aren’t you thinking of what’ll happen when your fathers find out? How do you think they’ll react to this???”

Lin Qian smiled. “Don’t you already know? We already showed you how we’d deal with it.”

Chen ShiYi’s was silent. Lin Qian was just too fearless. He didn’t hesitate for a second when he came out of the closet. She understood that once Lin YaZhi or Zheng BuLu finds out, Lin Qian will do the same as today.

Lin Qian didn’t stay in the closet out of fear- he had just been waiting for a good opportunity.

He was willing to wait, but he will never compromise on this.

Chen ShiYi shook her head. “Let me think…I need time to calm down.”

“We don’t mind.” Lin Qian’s voice was gentle, but Chen ShiYi didn’t hear even the tiniest yield in his tone. “Auntie, like I said, we’re willing to patiently wait for you to accept us. It doesn’t matter how much time you need.”

Zheng PingQing nodded, his eyes shining: “Mom, I believe in you.”

“I don’t know.” Chen ShiYi covered her forehead. Without saying goodbye, she turned around in a daze.

After a few steps, Chen ShiYi couldn’t help but turn back towards the terrace. Lin Qian and Zheng PingQing were still looking at her. When Zheng PingQing saw his mother looking back, he blew her a kiss. “Mom, we’ll wait for the good news.”

Chen ShiYi: “…..”

Chen ShiYi felt that she could still somehow come around to the idea of h.o.m.os.e.xuality. But at this moment, she felt that there was something even more unbelievable than her son turning gay.

How in the world could such a good child like Lin Qian end up fancying her absolutely disgraceful son?!

……

Chen ShiYi walked back to the living room, feeling a trace of regret. If she knew things would unfold this way, she would’ve just stayed in the living room and listened to Zheng BuLu’s nonsense.

She went downstairs, a helpless look in her eyes as she imagined the bleak future ahead. All she wanted now was to find some comfort and strength from her husband.

But then, as she stepped into the living room, Chen ShiYi discovered her current and ex-husband acting all sticky with each other!

Zheng BuLu had his hand on Lin YaZhi’s shoulder and was lifting a gla.s.s of wine towards Lin YaZhi’s lips. Zheng BuLu said: “Look at the color of this wine. Here, have a taste…”

Chen ShiYi: !!!!!

Chen ShiYi rushed towards the two men and broke them apart. She turned to Zheng BuLu and angrily said: “Zheng BuLu, if you want to talk, then talk properly, ah! Why are you acting fresh with my husband?! You’re in a public place, are you trying to make a scandal?!”

Zheng BuLu hadn’t expected to be yanked so suddenly. His hands wobbled, and the wine he was holding spilled onto his pants.

Zheng BuLu: “……..?????”

Lin YaZhi was also puzzled. “ShiYi, what’s wrong with you?”

Chen ShiYi forced herself in between the two men and angrily sat down. She pushed them away from each other and, with a lift of her chin, said: “One is my ex-husband, the other my current husband. Why are you sitting so close to each other? Move!”

Zheng BuLu and Lin YaZhi were completely confused.

Just then, He YiJun entered the living room. She saw Chen ShiYi sitting between the two men, bitterly accusing them: “I’m your ex-wife, ah. You should be sitting on my left. And you, you’re my current husband, you should be sitting on my right. You’re not allowed to sit anywhere but my right side!”

He YiJun: !!!!

He YiJun’s heart was furious. Good for you, Chen ShiYi. You act like a white lotus flower when there are other people in the room, but behind closed doors, you greedily take the happy fate of the men from Qi!

Simply shameless!
