Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Zhu Sui quickly hung up the video call and received Liang Xun’s cold gaze.
Zhu Sui coughed lightly and turned his face away slightly. He did not look at Liang Xun anymore, looking like he would hide as he could not afford to offend him.
Jing Yao wanted to laugh when she saw that Liang Xun was still holding the bouquet of roses with a foul expression. However, she felt her throat tighten when she looked up and saw Liang Xun looking at her.
More than a year ago, she never expected this to happen.
Many people were born with kinship. She tried her best but could not get it for more than 20 years. At that time, she wanted to get rid of the Jing Family and live a good life.
Love was something that had never been considered. After meeting Liang Xun, she suddenly obtained many things.
Liang Xun was originally regretting that his carefully prepared proposal was ruined by his son. When he suddenly saw Jing Yao’s red eyes, he couldn’t care less.
He handed the flowers to Shen Yu, then wrapped Jing Yao in his arms. He lowered his head and asked with heartache, “What’s wrong? You’re worried that I’ll be angry. I’m not angry, really.”
Jing Yao shook her head gently. She opened her mouth but did not say anything.
Liang Xun wanted to say something else but was interrupted again.
Liang Jing was squeezed in the middle by his parents and struggled uncomfortably. The commotion was too big for him to ignore.
Jing Yao quickly came back to her senses. She quickly restrained her emotions and carried Liang Jing out of Liang Xun’s arms.
After calming down, she suddenly realized that there were many people around.
She was a little embarra.s.sed and did not dare to look at anyone else. She could only lower her head slightly and ask Liang Xun, “Aren’t you guys going to barbecue?”
In order to make it seem real, Shen Yu and the rest really acted like they were here to barbecue when they came. They pretended very well.
They could really barbecue if they wanted.
Liang Xun’s parents knew what Liang Xun was planning. When Shen Yu went to fetch Liang Jing, the two of them did not follow along. They thought that this was the home ground of the young people. If the two of them were here, they would be worried that Shen Yu and the rest would feel uncomfortable.
Moreover, Liang Xun gave Auntie Li half a day off. The two aunties who took care of Liang Jing had also been informed to come over when Liang Jing wanted to sleep at night.
Who knew that the proposal would be abandoned halfway?
It couldn’t be said that he gave up halfway. It should be said that he didn’t expect the proposal to suddenly lose so much process.
Jing Yao agreed before Liang Xun could say the lines that he had carefully prepared.
“Let’s go, let’s go. The barbecue can still be done. Tell us how to prepare for the wedding while barbecuing.” Shen Yu called everyone to the lawn to barbecue.
Everyone was very cooperative and followed him.
Liang Xun was worried that Jing Yao would be very tired after shopping all day, so he wanted to take Liang Jing from her arms.
But Liang Jing didn’t cooperate at all. He turned his face and hid in Jing Yao’s arms, refusing to come out.
Liang Xun glared angrily, but he could not do anything to him. He could only grit his teeth inwardly.
In just a few minutes, he had even thought of how to vent all the anger he had been holding in for the past few months when this kid grew up a little more.
At this moment, Liang Jing, who did not know anything, could not expect his life would be so painful a few years later.
His father always made him learn all kinds of things under the pretext that it was for his own good.
What interesting English, calligraphy, art, basketball, football…
He would not talk about these, but what the h.e.l.l was n.o.ble etiquette?
Furthermore, Liang Xun had a way to make him learn willingly. When he was learning all kinds of skills, Liang Xun said, “Son, if you don’t study hard and grow up to be incompetent and unable to earn money, your Mom and I will have to sleep on the streets. I don’t mind, but can you bear to make your mother homeless?”
The little Liang Jing was confused. He looked at his big house and asked him, “Doesn’t this house belong to our family? Why will you sleep on the streets?”
Liang Xun said without blushing, “It is now, but it’s hard to say in the future. You saw the news last night, right? Golden Phoenix Technology, a company in the top 500 in the world, went bankrupt just like that.”
Liang Jing frowned and clenched his fists. “I won’t let Mom sleep on the streets.”
Liang Xun did not know if he should be gratified or vomit blood.
Liang Jing did not mention him at all.
Of course, Liang Jing was not that easy to coax. He was asked to go to the etiquette cla.s.s, so he asked in confusion, “Is this also related to earning money? Why should I learn this?”
Liang Xun said seriously, “Adults like obedient and polite children. If you don’t learn etiquette well, your mom will be mocked by those aunties when you make a fool of yourself when she brings you out in the future..”
