Chapter 609: Old Flame

CHAPTER 611

In the same vein, word spread to various cities and states about Li Jing’s accident and it did not do her good, considering people knew her in her father’s city.

She did actually lead one of the biggest businesses there.

“Kim Fan,” his father called out.

“Yes, father?” The young man, Kim Fan who she was supposedly betrothed to and called it off, sat down crossed leg on the sofa with a newspaper in his hand as he paid his full attention to the news he read, ignoring his father.

“Have you seen the news recently?” Kim Jingguo asked.

“Umm, I am reading and looking at the news, father.”

“Good. Then you see what has happened to her?”

“Yes.” He closed the newspaper and dropped it down. “But it has nothing to deal with me.”

“Seriously?” Kim Jingguo crossed his arms in front of his chest as he stared down at his son.

He was not buying that act from him. Not when he could clearly see through him and the anger he was trying to conceal.

“You still love that woman, Li Jing.”

“I do not.”

“I was not asking you a question, son. I was mainly stating the obvious.”

“I just want her back. I know I move around with women but none, I repeat, none has been able to capture my heart as she did. I want her.”

The coldness in his eyes told a different thing entirely. It was he was recalling a bitter past. Although it was and he obviously once told her he would get her back, married or not, but seeing her hurt, even made him mad.

“Even though she is married?”

“What good has that marriage done her, eh? Isn’t it before him that she is getting into such a mess? He obviously cannot protect her well. I can and I would. I would not let anyone mistreat her and go scot-free.”

“Is that really what you think?”

“It is father. The way I see it, it is an open way for revenge for what was done to our family. Twice was a betrothal cancelled. She is just like her mother. No difference.”

“But even you said so, dad. Her mother was the love of your life.”

“Was?” He scoffed, revealing a sinister smile as he made his way to the sofa opposite of Kim Fan and sat down with his legs crossed.

“Honestly, I do not think I have been able to get her off my mind. It has been what? Over thirty plus years now and just thoughts of her still come to mind. Hmm, if you think Li Jing is pretty, then you should have seen her mother.”

“What do you mean?”

“She was a goddess in making, beautiful beyond compare and even so, she was never one to sit down and be bullied even if she had a heart of gold and for that, I value her more than her daughter.”

“Of course, you would say that. Li Jing isn’t one to be bullied as well,” Kim Fan defended.

“Is she? Umm, if she is not, how come her aunts are still standing and not behind bars? They obviously thought of her as easy prey if you ask me.”

“That is her heart of gold but be mindful of quiet people. They tend to be more ruthless when pushed to the wall.”

“Hmm. I still think her mum is great.”

“Why wouldn’t you think that way when you are clearly still in love with her. I must say, as your son, I find that insulting to mum.” He chuckled then averted his gaze from the newspaper he had been staring at and looked at his father.

“I understand though. The heart is one such funny thing that we cannot just ignore. If it were that easy, I would have easily locked her out and been with another. Even though I sleep with others, I just d not get that satisfaction I get from being around her.”

Kim Jingguo’s eyes flared open with shock as realization hit home. “You slept with her?”

“No, dad. I did not but I did hope I did it.”

“You are one naughty son.”

“And what about you dad? Slept with her?”

“Not a chance in hell. I never even got a kiss. Those are some of my misgivings. I wished I was more enforcing and got even that. She was just a goddess that was way out of reach.”

“Hahaha…” Kim Fan let out a hearty laugh which in turn had surprised his father.

“What’s with the laughter son?”

“I do not know but this seems like a case of de javu for both father and son. We both fell in love with the mother and daughter. We were both betrothed to them and we both never got a taste of these women. What a sorry and sad fate I must say. I wonder, is it your bad luck washing over me?”

“Why you…”

He felt like scolding him but indeed his son did have a point, to be honest.

“Hahhaa, relax dad. You know I am joking.”

“I know son. It is just a painful memory. So what do you say? We should take an act of small revenge for what the family has done to us?”

“I do not know about that. I am more of a get her back than a revenge thingy, you know,” he explained, dropping the newspaper on the table in front of him and picking up his glass filled with juice.

“Tsk, what are you, six? Why take juice when there is a surplus of wine in the cellar. Who do you expect to finish it all?”

“You of course,” he joked. “Lighten up old man or you would indeed age.”

“Hey, I am not a youngster, now, am I?”

“Nope.”

“So allow me to live out my youthful old age.”

“Hmm, cheesy. It is no wonder mum likes you. It is just so unfortunate your heart belongs to another.”

“Hey, this is a secret between us men.. Never you let your mother know.”
