Although Zhuli was very reluctant to go with him to meet his parents, they had been honest with each other and had to take this step sooner or later.
She reluctantly moved back to her room to change her clothes.
I wandered back and forth in front of the closet carefully, and finally grabbed a down jacket.
On a winter evening, the setting sun sets slowly, reflecting the sky like an oil painting.
The Jing family's old residence is located in an orderly manner, like a quiet castle, revealing solemnity and tranquility everywhere.
Jing Huaizhi held Jing Youyou with one hand and pulled Zhuli into the courtyard with the other hand.
The servant lowered his head and led them.
living room
Jing Gaoming looked at Zhuli thoughtfully, "Coming?"
His tone wasn't very nice but it wasn't as serious as before.
Zhuli bit her lips and nodded in response.
She knew she was not ready to meet his parents at all.
"Why don't Youyou say hello to Grandpa?"
Jing Huaizhi tilted his head and smiled brightly at Jing Youyou.
Jing Youyou was embarrassed by what he said, so she covered her face with her hands and pretended to be invisible.
"Hello grandpa."
"Hello grandma."
Nuo Nuo's chirping voice successfully put a smile on Jing Gaoming's cold face.
Seeing this, Jing Huaizhi released his hold on Jing Youyou and asked her to go find her grandfather.
He leaned over and whispered a few words into Zhuli's ear.
Then he naturally took her hand and went to the back garden.
"Don't be nervous, I'm here."
In the back garden, Jing Huaizhi stopped and raised his hand to pinch her cheek with a gentle tone.
Zhuli looked a little depressed and her lips were as cold as water.
Liu Rui's words lingered in her mind. Although she said she didn't believe it, she still had some doubts in her heart.
Seeing that Zhuli was still in a daze, Jing Huaizhi pinched her cheek with hatred.
This time he turned harder.
"What's wrong with you today? Why are you so absent-minded?"
"ah?"
Zhuli looked confused as if she had just heard him speak.
"No, I'm not nervous."
She leaned against his shoulder and forced out a rare smile.
In the bay window upstairs, Shang Jin couldn't hide the smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows when he saw the two of them so friendly to each other.
By the time Zhuli and Jing Huaizhi returned to the living room from the back garden, it was almost time to start dinner.
Dining room
Zhuli picked up the chopsticks tremblingly and couldn't help but look around at everyone on the table.
This meal was very quiet, even Jing Youyou, who was noisy every day, was unusually quiet.
She was a little confused but didn't ask anything. She picked up the food in silence.
"Have you finished eating?"
Jing Gaoming took the handkerchief handed over by the servant and wiped the corners of his mouth.
Zhuli hummed softly.
"Miss Zhu, our family's rule is to eat without talking or sleep without talking. I hope you can adapt to it in the future."
He put down his handkerchief and stood up from his seat.
"Come to my study."
She quietly raised her head and looked around twice before she realized that he was calling her.
He looked at Jing Huaizhi with helpless eyes.
"Dad, you can tell me if you have anything."
"Don't trouble my wife."
Jing Huaizhi stared at Jing Gaoming with teasing eyes and spoke tactfully.
Jing Gaoming glared at him with a sarcastic look.
"Narrow-minded."
"Don't worry, I won't cause trouble for her. I just gave her a few words."
Jing Huaizhi rested his arms on the dining table, raised his eyelids and said nothing.
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you outside the door."
Seeing what he said, Zhuli felt relieved and followed Jing Gaoming into the study.
After entering the house, Jing Gaoming closed the door behind him.
Then he sat back in his office chair.
"Miss Zhu, I still can't accept you."
His words are sharp and straightforward.
The light in Zhuli's eyes dimmed.
Does she really expect him to accept her?
"But since Huaizhi likes you, I can also try to understand you."
Zhuli's fingers holding her sleeves moved slightly, but she didn't move rashly.
"I hope you won't disappoint me."
"Since you can't help our Jing family, then don't cause trouble to Huaizhi."
Jing Gaoming turned his finger, his eyebrows showing solemnity.
He was not discussing with Zhuli but demanding her in a warning tone.
"I will keep Chairman Jing's words in mind."
Her lowered eyes were full of uneasiness.
She must deal with Liu Rui and Xia Yuzhen as soon as possible before he finds out.
Just as she finished her answer, Jing Gaoming's sharp eyes came over her again.
"I've heard about your story, please don't affect Huaizhi."
Zhuli's expression suddenly changed, she clenched her fists and dug her fingertips into her palms.
What's going on with her?
"Don't worry, Chairman Jing, I will handle it myself."
There was a layer of panic in his eyes for an instant, but it was quickly suppressed.
She thought the conversation was over and was about to leave the depressing study.
Just as he was about to leave, a cold male voice came from behind.
"Will you treat Youyou as your own?"
Zhuli looked back at him and nodded without hesitation.
Is it true that Youyou’s mother will never come back?
She really wanted to know this question but didn't dare to ask it.
"Miss Zhu, if you want to be with Huaizhi with peace of mind, you can't have your own children. Can you accept that?"
Jing Gaoming crossed his fingers on his desk and raised the corners of his mouth.
Her expression was stunned for a moment, what did this mean.
There was a trace of sadness on his eyebrows, and tears welled up in his eyes.
She didn't even know how she walked out of the study.
"What did my dad tell you?"
When he walked to the corner, he happened to bump into Jing Huaizhi, who was smiling all over his face.
Zhuli smiled at him, but the smile was a little forced.
She hooked her fingers and leaned into his ear mysteriously: "Your father asked me to discipline you well."
After hearing this, Jing Huaizhi's lips curved up in a bad way.
"Okay, let's see who disciplines whom later."
His eyes were full of aggression, and a surge of possessiveness rushed towards him.
Zhuli was immediately frightened. She was wrong and shouldn't tease him.
Jing Huaizhi flicked her forehead in a funny way, "Let's go, what else are you looking at?"
-
"You really don't want to tell her about Youyou's life experience?"
Shang Jin sat on the sofa in the master bedroom with a frown on his face.
Jing Gaoming straightened his back, picked up a magazine and pretended to read it.
After a long time, he answered: "Just take it one step at a time."
"Lao Mu called me yesterday and said that his daughter was not in good condition."
"I just wonder if our family owes her too much."
Jing Gaoming felt a little worried when he mentioned Mu Airu.
Shang Jin lost his usual good temper and said sarcastically: "She brought it upon herself."
...
Zhuli was wrapped in Jinghuai's arms and kissed so hard that she didn't even have a chance to breathe.
With their lips and tongues touching, he couldn't stop and even took the time to open the door with his elbow.
She blinked her eyes full of water mist, hoping that the man in front of her would be more restrained. Unexpectedly, when she resisted, the man bit her even more cruelly.
The clothes gradually slipped off, and her hands involuntarily hung around his neck.
When the gun went off, a weak voice shouted: "Mom, dad, what are you doing?"
