Chapter 26
Jing Yao hung up the phone in shock just now. Her eyes had been red after her cell phone was switched off, but she widened her eyes stubbornly to prevent herself from crying.
Liang Xun’s heart ached terribly. He knew that if he hadn’t been around at that time, Jing Yao might have let herself cry out. In her eyes, he was still someone she had only known for a day.
They weren’t close enough for her to reveal her true emotions without any pressure.
Jing Yao calmed herself down and said to him, “Mr. Liang, why don’t you send me home?”
Before she thought of how to deal with Zhang Li, she did not want to see Ji Wei. Ji Wei looked carefree, but Ji Wei could tell. She did not want Ji Wei to worry when she was in a bad mood.
“Jing Yao, do you trust me?” Liang Xun suddenly asked.
Jing Yao looked at Liang Xun in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly asked this. She did not trust Liang Xun completely, but she completely believed that Liang Xun was a good person. There was no doubt that he treated her well, although it was for the sake of the child in her stomach.
Jing Yao nodded.
“No matter what trouble you encounter, I’ll help you resolve it,” Liang Xun said very seriously. “So tell me, who called you just now? Why are you so frightened?”
Hearing his question, Jing Yao burst into tears.
She only wanted to be free after terminating the contract today, but she forgot that the Jing Family would still look for her. After terminating the contract, she felt much more relaxed and felt that she was free. However, Zhang Li’s call instantly made her return to her original state. The dark clouds that had been shrouding her heart gathered again, pressing down on her until she could not breathe.
“It’s my mother. She…” Jing Yao covered her face, trying to hide her disheveled look.
Liang Xun quickly found a temporary parking spot. After stopping the car, he unbuckled his seatbelt and turned around to hug Jing Yao. He let her lean on his shoulder and patted her back gently.
“Alright, alright. I’ll take care of everything. I said that I’ll be in charge of all your matters during the pregnancy. I’ll protect you.”
Jing Yao buried her head in Liang Xun’s shoulder and cried silently.
After crying for an unknown period of time, when she adjusted her emotions and looked up, she realized that the clothes around Liang Xun’s shoulders were already wet from her tears.
Jing Yao was a little embarrassed and blamed herself in her heart. Why was she so good at crying? Moreover, what was there to feel aggrieved about? At least she was free compared to before.
Liang Xun could tell what the girl was thinking at a glance. He pursed his lips and smiled, pretending not to see Jing Yao’s awkward expression. He took a few tissues and handed them to Jing Yao, then sat back, buckled his seatbelt, and started the car.
“I’ll send you home now. You can stay at home in peace. I’ll handle these things. Oh right, you can think about what you want to eat tonight on the way back. I’ll come back tonight to make it for you.”
Jing Yao was very touched but also a little embarrassed. She whispered, “Thank you, Liang Xun. You’re really a good person.”
Liang Xun raised his eyebrows. Another good person card. That worked too. At least it meant that Jing Yao had a good first impression of him.
Liang Xun sent her home. Thinking that Jing Yao had gone to bed early last night and didn’t have the chance to familiarize herself with the environment at home, he took the opportunity to take Jing Yao to every room today.
He told Jing Yao not to go to places where she could fall easily, like the laundry room. Then, he went back to work.
After he left, Jing Yao turned on her cell phone and hurriedly called Ji Wei, telling him that she had something on in the next few days and could only wait until later.
Although Ji Wei was a little disappointed, he kindly said that it was fine and asked her to go do her own things first.
Then Jing Yao called Zhu Ling too. She didn’t hide anything from Zhu Ling and told her the truth. After all, Zhu Ling was an adult and Ji Wei was still a child in her eyes.
After settling these matters, she turned off her cell phone again and went to the living room to watch a movie.
After Liang Xun returned to the company, the first thing he did was to ask someone to investigate Jing Yao and the Jing Family. He wanted to search for Jing Yao’s past online, but he found the movies and television dramas that Jing Yao had participated in, including various interviews.
Jing Yao was very obedient in front of the camera and always smiled sweetly. Liang Xun was mesmerized for a moment. contemporary romance
It was only when the secretary knocked on the door and entered that Liang Xun closed his notebook and listened to the secretary’s report seriously.
