Bab 463: Is This My Beautiful Mother?

"At first glance, I thought it was me."

Rong Qi beside Sheng Jian opened her eyes at some unknown point and straightened her posture. She glanced at his smartphone, her voice icy. 

"Mmm. You do look alike. When you're cold, it's as if the whole world owes you something." Sheng Jian chuckled.

Rong Qi scoffed softly. "So this is my beautiful mother?"

Sheng Jian nodded. "Yes, it's Jing."

Rong Qi lowered her eyes. "Not quite the same. I wouldn't wear such bizarre earrings."

The woman in the photo sported a dazzling diamond earring in her left ear, unmistakably nonconformist.

Sheng Jian defended the choice. "It's simply a matter of the times being different. Those earrings are beautiful! You wouldn't understand; I scoured the entirety of Leucia and Ferica to find them for her, as a gift of my affection."

"So your declaration of love failed." Rong Qi poured cold water on the matter.
