Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Liang Xun’s words made Jing Yao nervous. She suddenly sat up straight, like a primary school student who was about to be called out by her teacher.
Liang Xun touched her head and wanted to comfort her, but before he could say anything, Jing Yao had already pushed his hand away.
“Don’t touch it. My hair will be messy later.”
Liang Xun looked at the back of his hand that was slapped and was slightly stunned. It didn’t hurt at all, but it made him feel that the distance between him and Jing Yao was slowly shortening.
Only then did Jing Yao realize what she had done. She had actually slapped Liang Xun?!
“I…” Jing Yao looked at Liang Xu uneasily. “I didn’t mean to. Does it hurt?”
Seeing her expression, Liang Xun said helplessly, “It doesn’t hurt. You don’t have to be so careful. You can do whatever you want with me.”
Jing Yao heaved a sigh of relief. She was most worried about talking to Liang Xun’s mother, so she did not think too much about Liang Xun’s words.
“Do I look okay? Are my clothes messy? Should I put on makeup?” Jing Yao tugged at her clothes and asked Liang Xun carefully.
Liang Xun was amused by her serious expression and comforted her. “Don’t worry, you’re very good at everything. Don’t worry, just treat her as an ordinary elder.”
Jing Yao nodded, but her expression did not relax much. She did not know how to interact with the elders. When she was young, the elders in the family basically stood on Jing Yuan’s side. She was afraid that she would make more mistakes if she said more, so she tried her best to reduce her presence in front of the elders.
Liang Xun sighed. “Perhaps, we don’t call her?”
Jing Yao shook her head. “No, haven’t you already promised Auntie? She’ll be sad if you do that.”
She took a deep breath and looked ready to die heroically. “Come on. I’m ready.”
Liang Xun pursed his lips tightly before suppressing his laughter.
He took out his cell phone and opened WeChat. He called Madam Sun Jia. It was picked up in less than five seconds. Clearly, Sun Jia had been waiting.
Sun Jia was obviously a little nervous. She sat upright and asked, “Where’s Yaoyao?”
Liang Xun glanced at Jing Yao, who was secretly looking over, and smiled. “She’s beside me.”
Sun Jia took a deep breath and smiled. “Give the cell phone to Yaoyao. After that, it’s none of your business.”
“…” Liang Xun.
He first looked at Jing Yao for her opinion. Seeing Jing Yao nod, he handed her the cell phone.
A beautiful face appeared in the camera. Sun Jia’s initial nervousness instantly disappeared. She only felt that this girl looked delicate and quiet when she looked at the photo. She had a good impression of her back then, but now that she saw her, she liked her even more. She looked obedient.
“Yaoyao.” Sun Jia’s smile became much more natural. There was no lack of enthusiasm but no eagerness. “I’m Liang Xun’s mother.”
Jing Yao was sensitive to begin with. She could sense the change in Sun Jia’s mood and realized that Sun Jia didn’t dislike her. She relaxed a lot and smiled. “Hello, Auntie.”
Sun Jia’s face stiffened for a moment, but she quickly recovered. It wasn’t because Jing Yao was still calling her so unfamiliarly, but because she was a little dissatisfied with her son’s efficiency. It had been so long, but he still hadn’t wooed her.
Sun Jia smiled and talked to Jing Yao a lot. She didn’t ask Jing Yao too many questions. She basically kept talking about what to pay attention to during pregnancy. In order to be more convincing, she even talked about many things when she was pregnant with Liang Xun.
Liang Xun sat beside Jing Yao and listened to their conversation quietly. Every time Sun Jia accidentally asked something that Jing Yao couldn’t answer, he would help her.
The video lasted for a long time. After nearly an hour, Jing Yao visibly relaxed. In the end, she could communicate with Sun Jia very naturally and even take the initiative to ask some questions.
Before the video call ended, Sun Jia suddenly said, “If you have time, get Liang Xun to bring you back.”
Jing Yao pursed her lips and did not speak. Liang Xun took the cell phone. “Let’s talk about this in the future. I’ll hang up first. It’s almost time for lunch.”
“Wait.” Sun Jia hurriedly stopped him. “I’ll get Auntie Li to take care of Yaoyao. She’s experienced and knows what to eat during pregnancy.”
Liang Xun said calmly, “There’s no need. 1 know it myself.”
Sun Jia:”… Do you know how to make maternity meals?”
Liang Xun raised his eyebrows. “Yes, don’t worry. I can take good care of Yaoyao.”
Sun Jia was speechless.
After hanging up, Liang Xun said to Jing Yao, “I’ll go cook. You can play with your cell phone for half an hour..”
