Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 440 The Predator Trapping Plan (39)

After a moment of silence, Qin's mother said with a hint of helplessness, "I came here with no ill intentions. I just want to see my child as a mother."

Upon hearing this, Yan Zhen scoffed.

The bodyguard next to Qin Ma immediately stepped forward: "Miss, please show some respect to our lady!"

Yan Zhen ignored the bodyguard and looked at Qin's mother instead: "Do you really care about Qin Shao?"

"Of course, he is my child..."

"If a normal person sees their child who has been living away from home for ten years and learns that the child has a family, wouldn't they have the most basic curiosity about the spouse?" Yan Zhen said.

“But you’re not curious about me, your daughter-in-law. How old am I? What’s my name? How did I meet Qin Shao? What’s our relationship like? Is our child a boy or a girl? How old is he/she? Is he/she healthy? You’re not curious at all. Tell me, do you care about Qin Shao?”

Qin's mother: "...I will ask Qin Shao about these things myself."

“Mrs. Qin, I do not agree to you seeing him,” Yan Zhen said. “You know in your heart what your purpose is in coming here today. It can’t be simply because you are ‘concerned’ about him. He is already in a bad mood. Don’t add to his troubles at this critical moment.”

Qin's mother frowned: "He is my child. Even if you are his wife, you have no right to stop me from seeing him."

Yan Zhen pulled out his gun, looking like he was going to take his trickery to the extreme: "If you want to go in, then have your bodyguards kill me, make Qin Shao lose his wife, and make our baby motherless. You failed to protect him ten years ago, so destroy his family ten years later, and you'll be happy."

"You..." Aunt Qin was clearly not expected to say such a thing, and for a moment she was so angry that she almost lost her composure. "You are simply shameless!"

Yan Zhen rolled her eyes, leaned against the door behind her, and showed no intention of moving aside.

Qin Ma couldn't argue with her, and she couldn't really lay a hand on her, so after hesitating for a moment, she prepared to leave.

At that moment, Qin Shao's voice came from inside the suite: "Jiang Ti?"

The bodyguard next to Qin Ma immediately raised his voice: "Young Master, Madam wishes to see you."

Yan Zhen: "..."

She kicked the bodyguard in the groin, knocking him to his knees.

Qin Shao, who was inside the house, had obviously heard the bodyguard's voice. Just as he turned the doorknob to come out, Yan Zhen quickly grabbed the outside doorknob and closed the door, which was only slightly ajar, back inside.

"Go to sleep," Yan Zhen said to Qin Shao inside the room through the door. "I'll handle what happens outside."

Qin Shao remained silent for a moment, then opened the door again.

This time, Yan Zhen did not stop him, but glared at him as he came out.

Qin Shao reached out and pulled Yan Zhen to his side, naturally putting his arm around her shoulder before looking at Qin's mother.

"Shall we talk inside, or outside?"

Qin Ma glanced at Yan Zhen subconsciously, perhaps worried that Yan Zhen would cause trouble if he was there, and said, "...Let's talk outside."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Zhen said, "Okay, I'll go with you."

Aunt Qin: "..."

She glanced at Qin Shao, signaling him not to let Yan Zhen follow.

Qin Shao acted as if he hadn't seen anything and grabbed Yan Zhen's hand: "Let's go."

Aunt Qin: "..."

The meeting place was on the rooftop of an airfield, where the Qin family's luxury spaceship was parked.

Yan Zhen and Qin Shao sat down side by side, with Qin's mother sitting opposite them, while the bodyguards were scattered throughout the cabin.

The three faced each other. Qin Ma hesitated for a long time, as if she had finally come up with an opening line. As soon as she said "Shao'er", Yan Zhen casually took out his gun and then took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the gun as if nothing had happened.

Aunt Qin: "..."

Yan Zhen smiled at Qin Ma as if he had just realized that his action had interrupted her, and said, "You can say whatever you want, just pretend I don't exist."

That's what she said, but the dark muzzle of the gun was intentionally or unintentionally pointed at Qin Ma, full of silent threat—be careful what you say.

Qin's mother was clearly annoyed by her repeated impolite behavior, but due to her status, she could not lash out. She could only take several deep breaths to shift her attention to Qin Shao.

"I heard you've been living in C032 all these years. How have you been doing there?"

Qin Shao said, "Not bad, we have plenty to eat and drink."

“You were most afraid of the heat when you were little. Every summer after playing football, you would easily get prickly heat on your back. The surface temperature of C032 is high. I don’t know how you have managed to get through all these years…” Qin’s mother said, her eyes slightly red.

Qin Shao was slightly taken aback. His mother's words seemed to have stirred up his memories of his youth, and a touch of emotion appeared on his face.

Just as the mother and son were getting emotional, Yan Zhen suddenly said, "C032 isn't incapable of using interstellar communication arrays. If you miss him so much, why haven't you contacted him in ten years?"

Upon hearing this, Qin's mother was taken aback.

Qin Shao realized something and immediately suppressed that subtle feeling of being touched.

Aunt Qin: "..."

She didn't answer Yan Zhen's question, but instead took Qin Shao's hand, looking at the calluses on his palms from practicing shooting, her eyes filled with heartache: "You've suffered so much these past years. Every year on your birthday, your grandfather and father would say that you were such a pampered person at home, always wanting the best of everything, and what would happen if you didn't have a good life outside..."

Yan Zhen chuckled: "Since you know he lives in C032, which is also accessible by interstellar express, if you're worried he's not doing well, just send him some food and drink. If all else fails, secretly transfer a large sum of money. That shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

Aunt Qin: "..."

Her carefully prepared emotions were repeatedly interrupted, and she finally couldn't hold back any longer: "Miss, this is very impolite of you."

Yan Zhen: "I know, I did it on purpose."

Aunt Qin: "..."

Even Qin's mother couldn't maintain her composure at this moment. She said to Qin Shao, "Shao'er, you've been wronged. If it were A001, the person who could match you would at least be a well-mannered and respectful young lady from a respectable family. But in C032, you can only marry someone like this..."

"If you can marry a high-class lady from an A001 family for him, I wouldn't mind being a concubine," Yan Zhen said. "Can you do that?"

Aunt Qin: "..."

She stood up abruptly, looking down at Yan Zhen, no longer hiding her dissatisfaction and anger: "Miss, what exactly do you want? Do you really not want me to have a heart-to-heart talk with Shao'er? Does marrying you mean Shao'er doesn't even have the right to acknowledge me as her mother?"

Yan Zhen glanced at Qin Shao.

Seeing that he was not surprised or objected to Qin Ma's constant mention of "marriage," Yan Zhen felt relieved and said to Qin Ma, "If you really came here out of concern for Qin Shao, of course I don't mind, but you know in your heart what you're here for today."

She cocked the gun she had just cleaned with a "click": "We've already said all that, so let's not waste time with all that preamble. Just get to the point, and then we're going back to sleep."
