Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mr. Liang was stunned for a moment before saying warily, “Oh, so?”
Liang Xun said leisurely, “What gift is Dad going to give me?”
“Pfft…” Mr. Liang spat on the other end. “Liang Xun, you’re really getting more and more shameless. You even asked others for gifts yourself?”
Liang Xun did not think that there was anything wrong with his actions. “You’re not anyone else. You’re my father.”
Mr. Liang choked again and felt a little regretful. When Liang Xun was young, in order to train Liang Xun to take over as soon as possible, he brought Liang Xun to various banquets and let him learn how to negotiate and find loopholes in others’ words.
Now, he had nurtured his son into a smart person. He could not win against his son at all.
“What do you want?” One could hear how aggrieved Mr. Liang’s tone was even through the phone.
“Help me work at the company for a few months,” Liang Xun said very naturally, as if he did not think that his request was too much.
Mr. Liang was so angry that he couldn’t speak. He calmed down for a long time before saying angrily, “Brat, it wasn’t easy for me to retire and I can accompany your mom for a few years. Do you still want me to go back to work?”
Liang Xun raised his eyebrows. “Oh, you don’t agree? Forget it, 1’11 tell Mom.”
Mr. Liang snorted and said proudly, “Stop dreaming. Do you think your Mom will listen to you? Her heart aches for me the most. She definitely can’t bear to…”
Mr. Liang’s voice stopped because Liang Xun had hung up.
Mr. Liang was so angry that he wanted to curse.
Liang Xun called Sun Jia again while Jing Yao was dumbfounded.
Sun Jia was much more reliable than Mr. Liang. She picked up the call and said, “Yo, Son. Happy birthday.”
“Thank you, Mom.” Liang Xun thanked her with a smile.
Sun Jia continued, “It’s such a cold day, so we won’t go over. Son, is there anything you want?”
Liang Xun pondered for a moment and said, “There really is. 1 hope Daddy can go to the company for me for a few months. Yaoyao can’t leave anyone in her current condition. I’m worried about leaving her alone at home.”
Sun Jia didn’t hesitate and said directly, “Alright, you’re right. You have to pay more attention when the due date is getting close. Also, you have to be careful usually. Don’t be rough. Think about your bull-like strength at any time.”
Liang Xun was speechless. “Mom, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. Remember to tell Dad to go to the company tomorrow. 1’11 go tomorrow too and tell him about the few big projects in progress.”
Hearing Sun Jia’s agreement, Liang Xun hung up and smiled at Jing Yao. “I can stay at home with Yaoyao this time.”
Jing Yao opened her mouth slightly and said after a while, “I hope Baby doesn’t have a personality like you.”
Liang Xun’s expression froze and he said in an aggrieved tone, “Yaoyao, why do you say that? Is my personality very bad?”
Jing Yao nodded at first, then shook her head. “I’m fine most of the time. It’s just that you’re too scheming occasionally.”
Liang Xun was caught between laughter and tears. “I did this to accompany Baby.”
Jing Yao was almost desensitized to the term “baby”. She snorted. “Don’t push the blame to me. I won’t take the blame.”
Because it was Liang Xu’s birthday, Jing Yao didn’t let him into the kitchen. Auntie Li made all three meals, and Auntie Li even made a cake herself.
Jing Yao helped to set up the fruits. After dinner, Auntie Li even smiled and pushed all the credit to Jing Yao. “Yaoyao made this cake herself.”
Jing Yao blushed and hurriedly waved her hand. “No, Auntie Li made it. I just helped to set up the fruits.”
Liang Xun thanked Auntie Li and looked at Jing Yao deeply.
Seeing this, Auntie Li hurriedly found an excuse to return to her room.
Jing Yao lit the candle and got up to turn off the light.
Liang Xun pulled her back. “There’s no need to turn off the lights. It’s dark in winter. It’s not safe to turn off the lights. Let’s leave it at that. This is good too.”
Jing Yao nodded and said to Liang Xun, “Then close your eyes and make a wish.”
Liang Xun opened his mouth to refuse, but he closed his eyes when he saw Jing Yao’s bright and expectant eyes.
He was quite pious when it came to making wishes. If his birthday wish was really that effective, he hoped that his precious Yaoyao could be safe and healthy for the rest of her life. He also hoped that they could be together for the rest of their lives.
The light from the candle shone on Liang Xun’s handsome face. The warm yellow light made him look gentle and beautiful.
Jing Yao lifted the tablecloth and confirmed that the gift she had prepared in advance was still under the table. Then, she looked at Liang Xun without blinking, her heart beating non-stop..
