Chapter 83: Long Way To Go
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Liang Xun agreed on a time and place to meet Zhu Ling before hanging up and going downstairs.
Jing Yao was sitting at the dining table eating with a satisfied expression as she nibbled on Liang Xun’s fried noodles.
Liang Xun sat beside her and said with a smile, “Is it delicious?”
Jing Yao nodded quickly. “It’s especially delicious. It’s even better than what a five-star chef makes, but…”
Liang Xu raised his eyebrows and waited for her to say what was wrong so that he could improve next time.
Jing Yao looked regretful and sighed. “It’s too little. It’s not enough at all.”
Liang Xun looked helpless, but this also meant that Jing Yao’s appetite had been good recently. When she first moved in, she retched when she saw food. In order to change this situation, he specially worked hard to make the food not only delicious, but also pleasing to the eye.
“You can’t eat too much before bed. Otherwise, you won’t be able to digest it well. When the time comes, you’ll be the one feeling uncomfortable.” Liang Xun lowered his voice as if he was coaxing a child.
One of them watched and one of them ate. They did not say much, but it was inexplicably warm.
If someone was watching Jing Yao eat in the past, she would definitely feel uncomfortable. However, she had already adapted to it. Every time Liang Xun learned a new dish, he would make it for her to try. At this moment, he would sit beside or opposite her and stare at the subtle changes in her face.
With Jing Yao’s personality, she would smile even if she didn’t like it when she knew that he was doing it for her own good. Liang Xun had long noticed this.
She was different from anyone Liang Xun was familiar with in the past. The girls Liang Xun knew in the past were pampered and wished they could live in the center of the world and be the center of attention.
Jing Yao was very capable of taking care of herself. She was even in fear and trepidation when he treated her too well.
While they were eating, Zhu Ling called again. Liang Xun picked it up and put it on speakerphone on the table.
“Yaoyao, Shen Yu has followed you. Follow him immediately.”
Jing Yao didn’t ask why. She turned on Weibo and followed Shen Yu. This time, Weibo exploded again.
Only then did Jing Yao realize that she had gained more than 100,000 fans in just one night. Her hard work for a few years could not compare to this single night. However, no matter what, it was a good thing to gain fans.
Shen Yu posted a clarification on Weibo.
[@Shen Yu: It’s hard to explain my relationship with @Jing Yao, but it’s not what many netizens think. We re relatives. I was asked to take care of her on the show. Please be merciful and let me go. I don’t want to be chased out of the house.]
With this post, many netizens would no longer randomly match the two of them, but the comments section still exploded.
[Yuyu Family’s Little Baby: Precious Yu, since you’re relatives, why haven’t 1 heard you mention it before?]
She was a super fan of Shen Yu and a president of Shen Yu’s fan club. Shen Yu saw this comment a few seconds after posting it.
[@Shen Yu replied to @Yuyu Family’s Little Baby: Oh, we just became relatives recently.] As soon as it was posted, the netizens made all kinds of guesses. What did this mean?
However, Shen Yu didn’t explain further. He wanted to say that Jing Yao was his sister-in-law, but his manager, Zhang Yan, said that this relationship couldn’t be told to the outside world through him. He just posted it and asked the netizens not to match him with Jing Yao anymore. As for when it would be made public, it should be left to Liang Xun and Jing Yao to decide.
Shen Yu felt that it made sense and did as he was told. Zhu Ling had the same thoughts as Shen Yu, but after thinking about it, it made sense. Once female celebrities got married, their resources would be limited. It was better not to make it public.
As for the netizens, let them guess for themselves.
Jing Yao also felt that this was good when she saw this Weibo post.
“That’s the best way. Liang Xun, you don’t have to expose yourself to the public. Otherwise, if the netizens find out, it won’t be good for you after our divorce.” Jing Yao looked relieved.
Liang Xun frowned slightly. He wanted to ask Jing Yao why she still wanted to divorce him, but he didn’t ask in the end.
After Jing Yao finished eating, he asked her to remove her makeup and wash up first, while he stayed downstairs to clean up.
Jing Yao pursed her lips and said softly, “Thank you for your hard work.”
Liang Xun smiled and did not say anything. He only urged her to quickly go upstairs to wash up.
When Jing Yao went upstairs, he stared at her back resentfully. When would Jing Yao change to a more practical way to thank him, such as kissing him?
Sigh! There was still a long way to go..
