Chapter 364: Envy
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Zhang Jing and Jing Mo’s negotiations ended in failure. This time, Jing Mo seemed to be determined. No matter what conditions Zhang Jing raised, he was very insistent.
Zhang Ting had been waiting outside. When he saw his father walk out with an unhappy expression, he knew the outcome.
“Dad, leave this to me,” Zhang Ting said.
Perhaps Zhang Ting did not notice that a trace of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes when he said this.
Zhang Jing instantly looked at Zhang Ting sternly. After he became an adult, Zhang Ting gave everyone the impression that he was mature and steady, causing many people to forget that his temper was actually not good.
If this matter was handed to him, Jing Mo’s outcome would definitely be very tragic. However, Zhang Jing did not want his son to get involved.
“You don’t have to worry about this. If you want to play with your friends, go,” Zhang Jing said.
Zhang Ting frowned slightly and wanted to say something. Seeing his father’s determined expression, he shut up.
Jing Yao didn’t know much about Zhang Li and Jing Mo. After she gave birth, Liang Xun was afraid that she would be tired, so he didn’t let her interfere in the child’s matters.
However, she would definitely feel a little unwell after giving birth.
She didn’t say anything and would smile and joke with her family every time. No one noticed it, except Liang Xun, who was paying attention to her at all times.
This kind of discomfort was unavoidable, and there was no solution. He could only let Jing Yao rest more.
Before the Lunar New Year ended, there was a new child at home. Even Liang Xun’s Grandpa and Grandma arrived.
The two elders were in good health and had retired for many years. They did not say where they wanted to go to play and felt that it was torturous to go out to play sometimes. However, sometimes, there were some invitations that could not be rejected and they could only go on a trip.
The rest of the time, they would stay at home and walk around every day.
When he was in good spirits, he would come to Bi City to see his two daughters and grandchildren.
As people got older, their desires seemed to have sunk to the bottom. Their only care was their children. Now that Jing Yao had given them a great-grandson, they looked much happier.
On this trip to Bi City, the two of them prepared a bunch of gifts for Jing Yao and the baby. Of course, there were also many gifts for Zhu Ling. After all, they all knew about Shen Yu and Zhu Ling.
They had never interfered in the relationship of the younger generation, and they knew Shen Yu’s personality very well. The person he liked was definitely not a bad person.
After interacting with Zhu Ling, they naturally liked her.
Jing Yao lay in bed for a long time one day. Her waist was very sore, so she asked Liang Xun to take her for a walk by the lake in the backyard.
Then, at a turn, she heard Grandma say to Grandpa, “These two boys know how to choose. With Little Xun’s cold and hard personality, he needs someone with a gentle personality to neutralize it. Little Yu can’t calm down. He also needs someone like Little Ling to control him.”
Jing Yao silently tilted her head and looked at Liang Xun. It seemed that many people evaluated Liang Xun that way.
When she first met Liang Xun, she also felt that he looked very cold. At that time, she was a little afraid of Liang Xun, but in fact, on careful thought, Liang Xun had never been cold to her.
“Why are you looking at me?” Liang Xun sensed Jing Yao’s gaze and turned to ask her.
Jing Yao met his gaze and an inexplicable warmth surged in her heart. Every time Liang Xun looked at her, there was always seriousness in his eyes.
People who had been marginalized by their families since they were young wanted to be treated seriously.
“Let’s go back and sit in the pavilion in the front yard.” Jing Yao leaned closer and whispered to him.
Liang Xun took a closer look at her and then looked up at the old couple walking slowly in front of him. They supported each other and walked slowly and steadily.
In his impression, these two elders had always had a good relationship. There were also times when they bickered because they had different opinions, but they would reflect on themselves afterward and quickly reconcile.
“Are you afraid that Grandpa and Grandma will find out that we’re eavesdropping?” Liang Xun’s eyes were filled with mockery as he said this.
Jing Yao glared at him angrily. Her emotions fluctuated and she couldn’t control her volume. “1 didn’t eavesdrop. 1 just…”
“Yaoyao?” The two elders walking in front turned around.
Jing Yao froze instantly and looked up at the two elders who were slowly walking towards them in surprise.
“Grandpa, Grandma…” Jing Yao braced herself and called out to them. She wanted to explain that they really didn’t eavesdrop, but she couldn’t say it.
Grandma responded happily, let go of her husband’s hand, held Jing Yao’s arm, and pulled her forward..
