Chapter 55: She Will Definitely Be Happy
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Jing Yao did not have much expression on her face. She no longer cared about the Jing Family and Wen Chen. She did not have a happy day with them.
“There’s no need for an apology. I just hope that I won’t have anything to do with him in the future,” Jing Yao said coldly.
Cheng Wan looked at her in surprise. After a while, she said, “Yaoyao, don’t say things out of anger.”
Jing Yao sighed slightly and said helplessly, “Auntie, I know you really want me to be well, but I’m not saying it out of anger. 1 think you should know your son, Wen Chen, well. He’s arrogant to a certain extent. He’s believed in what he believes since he was young. He doesn’t listen to anyone else at all. He believes everything Jing Yuan says. No matter what I do, I’m wrong in his opinion. Perhaps he thinks that Jing Yuan is more suitable to be the Wen Family’s daughter-in-law. Now that we’ve broken off the engagement, the two of them are quite suitable.”
Cheng Wan widened her eyes and opened her mouth, but she could not say anything.
Coincidentally, an attendant came to ask if they should serve the dishes now. Cheng Wan suppressed the shock on her face and asked them to serve the dishes. Then she said to Jing Yao, “You should be hungry at this time. Let’s eat first and not wait for Chen.”
Jing Yao frowned slightly, but nodded in the end.
If she had known that Wen Chen was coming, she would not have agreed to Cheng Wan’s request.
The dishes were served very quickly. The dishes looked good. Jing Yao swallowed her saliva gently. These dishes should be quite delicious, but she couldn’t eat them.
Cheng Wan picked up a cold dish for Jing Yao first. “Their cold eggplant is sour and spicy. It should be your favorite. Try it.”
Jing Yao couldn’t bear to let Cheng Wan keep raising her chopsticks, so she let her place the eggplant in her bowl. However, she really didn’t dare to eat it. She had secretly eaten it a few days ago, but she vomited so much that she almost doubted her life that night. Liang Xun was busy taking care of her the entire night and broke out in cold sweat because of that. He almost called the doctor.
Although she was greedy, she did not want to cause trouble for Liang Xun.
Seeing that she was not eating, Cheng Wan asked curiously, “Why aren’t you eating? Is the food not to your liking?”
Jing Yao hurriedly shook her head. “No, I just can’t eat too spicy or too cold food recently.”
Cheng Wan was stunned for a moment. Thinking that Jing Yao had an upset stomach, she asked, “Have you seen a doctor?”
Jing Yao pursed her lips. She knew that Cheng Wan had misunderstood, but she didn’t want to tell her about it. She could only say ambiguously, “I’ve seen a doctor.”
Cheng Wan was relieved and said, “I’ll get them to make other dishes.”
“No need, Auntie.” Jing Yao hurriedly stopped her. “I don’t have much of an appet.i.te today. Auntie, you can eat them. Don’t worry about me.”
Cheng Wan put down her chopsticks and looked at Jing Yao steadily. “Yaoyao, what’s wrong with you recently? I heard from your mother that you haven’t been back for a long time.”
Jing Yao lowered her eyes. “Auntie Cheng, I’m already married.”
“What?” Cheng Wan exclaimed. This time, her expression really changed, and what followed was a deep sense of disappointment. Wen Chen really had no chance at all.
Cheng Wan deliberated and said, “Jing Yuan said that she saw you eating dinner with a few men…”
Before Cheng Wan could say anything, Jing Yao’s expression changed. She could already imagine how Jing Yuan would slander her.
“Auntie, do you believe her?” Jing Yao sounded disappointed.
Cheng Wan hurriedly shook her head. “No, of course not. I believe in Yaoyao. I’m just worried about you. You’re a girl alone out there. I’m worried that you’ll be deceived.”
Cheng Wan’s words were full of sincerity. Jing Yao finally wasn’t so sad. After all, she didn’t get much warmth since she was young. Cheng Wan was one of the people who had given her warmth. She was afraid that Cheng Wan would change.
“Those people are my husband’s friends. We arranged to have a meal together that day,” Jing Yao said softly, her face slightly red. This was the first time she called Liang Xun that.
Cheng Wan saw her expression and was both disappointed and gratified. “Does he treat you well?”
Jing Yao nodded and said in embarra.s.sment, “He treats me very well and takes care of me. He basically listens to me in everything. Although he looks cold usually, he’s actually very gentle.”
Cheng Wan nodded. “That’s good. Although I’m a little reluctant, Auntie still wants you to be happy.”
“She will naturally be very happy.” A cold male voice sounded at the door.
The two of them looked over at the door and were stunned.
Liang Xun walked in and kept his gaze on Jing Yao. It was not until he stood behind Jing Yao that he looked at Cheng Wan and said with a smile, “Thank you for your kind words, Madam..”
