Chapter 210 Determination
Christy Zhong kept a faint smile on her face and greeted them back as she heard their greetings: "Hello, babies!" From their viewpoint, they thought that Christy adored them so much. Regardless of their appearance or the way they played around, Christy felt like seeing Justin as she saw them, and her heart filled with infinite joy.
The kids got off of James Feng's arms and took the initiative to walk towards Christy and asked: "Will you play with us today?"
James was surprised by their behavior and wondered, was their blood relation started to play its role between them? Usually, they were not so active in approaching people. But they were so enthusiastic towards Christy, which was beyond his expectation.
But Christy glanced at James since she could not act or say anything of her will, and she had to listen and follow his orders.
James answered them: "Of course, what are you going to play with Auntie? Don't you want to play with dad too?" No matter how calm James spoke, he felt something was missing. Christy did not have the chance to see her kids even after giving birth to them. Meanwhile, James had always been by their side.
Juezun Feng expected that his father was jealous, and teased him: "Papa, isn't she is your wife? If you two get married and we become close to each other, will you still envy us?"
His words just now were powerful enough that the adults there were all startled. James reacted to them quickly and joked: "Who taught you this?"
The latter smirked and answered scornfully: "Tch, we don't need nobody to teach us. Didn't you introduce Auntie Zhong as your girlfriend to us?"
Well, Juezun Feng's words just now made sense. Could it be that he was able to read their minds? His heart sure was delicate that he could understand what was going on between them. Indeed, James did say those words, so he had to admit. However, he would not let his children beat him up.
"You guys sure are fast learners. Yes, Papa did say so. Now, whose side are you on, Papa, or Auntie Zhong's?" James quickly asked the twins to test them out.
And his question caught the kids off guard. They acted according to their hearts just now and never thought that James would let them choose between him or Christy.
Jing Lu, on the side, heard their conversation and couldn't stand them. How could the twins, whom she raised, act that way? She couldn't take it anymore. How could they get so close to Christy? "Weiyue, Juezun, come here, let's play with grandma," Jing Lu spoke normally to the kids. However, her facial expression was somewhat unfriendly toward Christy.
But they refused her and said: "Grandma, you can have a talk with Papa. Papa would keep you company today, so don't worry about us."
She was not in a good mood today, and their answer just now worsened her mood. How could she not feel upset, especially when they keep coming back to Christy? Her face darkened as she glared at her grandchildren, "and you don't want to live together with your grandma later, do you?"
After hearing her answer, they understood right away that she was mad. Their reaction capability was powerful. Although they could not guess correctly how adults feel, they were sensitive to their actions and attitude.
Also, they could not decide now whether they would live separately from her or not, so they walked towards Jing Lu and comforted her: "Grandma, we are so close now, don't you know that? And you once said that you're tired of taking care of us, so we would like you to rest for a while."
Jing Lu could not deny the fact that their words just now made sense. She calmed herself down and asked them: "Since when did my grandchildren be so considerate? I am tired but also happy to take care of you. I wish you to be healthy and happy, and won't let some strangers bully you."
It was certain that Jing Lu pointed Christy as the bully since she disliked Christy that much. Besides, James told her that he administered their marriage certificates. She felt even more puzzled and dissatisfied by this, yet she couldn't object to his decision.
James was about to protest, but Juezun Feng interrupted him, "grandma, Auntie Zhong is not a stranger, but Papa brought her here. Besides, we are clever and smart, so how could we let others bully us?" Jing Lu could hardly argue with them since they told the truth. And deep down in her heart, no matter how much she disliked James's woman, she would always love the twins wholeheartedly. Besides, they were apart from their mother since birth, and she had been taking care of them all along.
"I believe my grandchildren are smart, but a lot of big bad wolves are hiding out there, so your Papa and I ought to protect you," Jing Lu continued to speak frankly, "just in case someone tried to hurt you." Again, she pointed to Christy as someone bad in her philosophy. She would never be satisfied with the latter no matter what she did. However, at this time, Jing Lu could not go any further, or else, she would leave a bad influence on the kids.
However, Jing Lu was still not content. She was turning things over in her mind and continued to attack Christy so that the latter would retire from the scene sooner.
But why would Christy retreat from her? She could resist her words just now, and even if Jing Lu tried to get physical, she would be able to put up with her too. Christy was determined to use all her might to maintain her current job and marital status.
James knew for sure he could not let Jing Lu blabber too much and stopped her, "Mom, should I accompany you or the kids?" He could only choose one between his mother and his children, and today was no exception.
But the problem was that neither Jing Lu wanted Christy to take care of the kids nor wanted to face the latter. Besides, she had no more choices at the moment.
