Chapter 123: Meeting Wen Chen
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Thinking of what happened at the zoo just now, Liang Xun took Jing Yao to a private restaurant that was very well-hidden.
Knowing that Jing Yao was unhappy just now, Liang Xun asked Jing Yao to order her own food this time. Jing Yao secretly ordered a few dishes that Liang Xun didn’t allow her to order before and ate happily.
Liang Xun pretended not to see it at all. He didn’t let Jing Yao eat anything too sour and spicy, not only because Jing Yao was pregnant now, but also because he knew that Jing Yao’s stomach wasn’t good.
When she was young, if Zhang Li felt that she had done something wrong, she would punish her to kneel and not let her eat. After she worked, she worked hard to earn money. Most of the time, she was so busy that she could not eat, so she often had gastrointestinal discomfort.
However, after pampering her for nearly three months, it should not be a problem for her to eat spicy food once or twice now.
Jing Yao ate happily and forgot about the unhappiness in the zoo.
After dinner, Liang Xun held her hand and left. Jing Yao became more talkative when she was in a good mood. She whispered to Liang Xun, “1 think Lingling must be hiding something from me recently.”
Liang Xun was not annoyed at all. He asked patiently, “What do you mean?”
“She’s been very troubled recently. She either doesn’t say a word or talks in long paragraphs when we chat. This can only mean that she’s very frustrated and has encountered something that can’t be resolved,” Jing Yao said firmly.
Liang Xun raised his eyebrows. “A relationship problem?”
Jing Yao looked at Liang Xun in shock. “No way. Lingling has always emphasized that she’s not going to get married. She said that men will only stop her from advancing. 1 think she must have encountered some trouble at work. But, she didn’t say anything when I asked her. She’s probably afraid that I’ll worry.”
Liang Xun said, “It’s definitely not work-related.”
As far as he knew, Shen Yu had given almost all the most capable talents in his team to Zhu Ling.
After all, it was Jing Yao’s studio, and Liang Xun was paying attention to it at all times. He knew that the studio’s progress was smooth, so it couldn’t be work-related.
Jing Yao looked at him suspiciously. “How did you know?”
Liang Xun smiled without saying anything. He skipped the topic and said, “You’re already Jingxuan’s boss. Think of a new name and tell me. I’ll bring you to register for the change. Then, we’ll find a professional manager to manage the company. We’ll talk about it when you want to take over in the future. How about that?”
Jing Yao nodded. “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
The two of them chatted as they walked out and did not notice a person with a gloomy expression following behind them.
Wen Chen had an appointment with someone to discuss a collaboration today. He didn’t expect to meet Jing Yao and Liang Xun here. The two of them left hand in hand, chatting and laughing like an ordinary couple.
Wen Chen did not know what he was thinking. When he saw this scene, his heart ached, but he could not help but follow after them.
He watched the two of them walk to the open-air parking lot. When they stood by the car, Jing Yao actually took the initiative to plant a kiss on Liang Xun. The smile in Liang Xun’s eyes was infuriating.
“Jing Yao!” Wen Chen couldn’t control himself and called out to Jing Yao.
At this moment, Jing Yao was so shocked that she almost fell to the ground when she suddenly heard someone call her. Fortunately, Liang Xun was quick-witted. He hugged her waist and protected her in his arms.
Seeing that Jing Yao almost fell, Liang Xun’s heart skipped a beat.
After hugging Jing Yao tightly, he looked up at Wen Chen. His eyes were as cold as ice, as if he could stab someone to death.
Jing Yao slowly calmed down and felt a little indignant. Wen Chen was really her nemesis. Nothing good would happen once she met him.
Jing Yao curled up in Liang Xun’s arms and tugged at the corner of his shirt. She urged softly, “Let’s go. Let’s go home and sleep. I’m so sleepy.”
Liang Xun retracted his gaze and the cold aura around him dissipated. He looked down at the person in his arms and saw that Jing Yao’s face was filled with resistance. He was not as angry as before and felt much better.
He didn’t want Wen Chen to talk to Jing Yao either. He opened the car door and wanted to take Jing Yao to the car.
Wen Chen was completely ignored by the two of them. He was furious and his expression was cold and terrifying. He called out to the two of them, “Wait.”
As he spoke, he strode over and stood in front of Liang Xun and Jing Yao.
Jing Yao’s face darkened and she was extremely annoyed. She didn’t even want to look at Wen Chen. She automatically took two steps back and stood behind Liang Xun, hiding herself tightly..
