Chapter 173 Let's move back and continue living together.
After dinner, Ji Ying prepared to go home.
Liang Yizhi grabbed her hand, "Don't you want to come up and sit down?"
Ji Ying smiled faintly, "You want me to see your little one wearing a see-through nightgown again?"
Liang Yizhi smiled helplessly, took her hand, and walked out of the hotel.
He carefully fastened Ji Ying's seatbelt, then suddenly remembered something and turned his head to ask, "Is the apartment you're living in now your own?"
"No, Xiaxia helped me rent it."
"You have a little money in your pocket, why don't you buy one for yourself?"
Liang Yizhi leaned against the car door, his gaze fixed on her face.
Ji Ying blinked, paused for two seconds, and then replied, "Let's talk about it when I really want a home someday."
Liang Yizhi pursed his lips, said nothing more, and turned to walk towards the driver's seat.
"I need to go back to Beijing," he said.
Ji Ying looked at him, intending to ask what they were going back for, but the words that came out were, "How long are you going back?"
Liang Yizhi smiled faintly and said, "If you don't miss me, the time will be longer; if you do miss me, it will be shorter."
Ji Ying laughed, ignoring his words.
The next morning, she went to Qingsui.
Xiao Xia showed her an agreement.
"This is a cooperation agreement we just signed with Xueqiong Titanium Energy, which has already been notarized. In a few days, the teams from both sides will go together to view the land and select a factory site."
Ji Ying glanced at it briefly and said, "You're more experienced in cooperation than I am. If you think it's okay, then it's okay."
Xiao Xia put away the documents and reminded her, "Tomorrow night we're hosting a business dinner with Xue Qiong to officially announce our cooperation. Remember to ask your Chairman Liang for leave and be on time."
Ji Ying smiled and stood up, saying, "He's going back to Beijing today, so I'll be completely free tomorrow night."
Xiao Xia laughed and said, "Oh, so they're starting to report to you now?"
Ji Ying's eyes curved into a smile. "More than that, before he left yesterday, he contacted the cake shop for me, saying that he wasn't there and was worried that I would be too busy with work and get hungry at night, so he asked them to deliver desserts to me at a fixed time every day."
Xiao Xia was happy for her, "You even thought of such a small thing, then you've met the right person."
Ji Ying didn't respond to her words, walked out of the office, and a slight smile crept into her eyes.
Liang Yizhi gave her a feeling of just the right amount of comfort.
There was no suffocating control with the "I can give you everything" attitude, nor the condescending, coercive desire to "teach you to be a qualified Mrs. X".
All he offered was a sense of ease.
This is exactly what she wanted.
...
Over there, at the Liang residence.
Xie Lingfang held Shen Aizhu's hand and said to Liang Yizhi, "Don't worry, Aizhu will feel at ease here, just like at home. From now on, when she comes to Kun City, she can't stay in a hotel anymore; she has to come straight home."
She emphasized the word "home" with extra warmth.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Madam Liang. My brother-in-law was worried about me staying in a hotel alone and insisted that I choose between going home and coming to your place. I haven't finished my research yet, so I can't go back. I have no choice but to follow your instructions and come to bother you."
Shen Aizhu smiled gracefully, withdrew her hand demurely, and nodded slightly. Her words gave Madam Liang ample face, yet subtly maintained a distance.
"How could it be a disturbance? We're overjoyed that you're here."
After Xie Lingfang finished speaking, she looked at Liang Yizhi and said tactfully, "Don't worry about your business. I will take good care of your people."
Upon hearing this, Shen Aizhu lowered her head and blushed.
However, Liang Yizhi did not respond to Xie Lingfang's matchmaking attempt. "She has a free-spirited personality. If she does anything against the rules, you should speak up. There's no need to indulge her."
"Brother-in-law..."
Shen Aizhu drawled out her words in a reproachful tone, her voice tinged with a hint of affectionate complaint.
"...I am the most law-abiding."
Xie Lingfang quickly said, "Of course your brother-in-law knows that. He just cares about you."
Shen Aizhu liked to hear these words.
Just as she was about to say a few more coquettish words, she heard Liang Yizhi speak coldly and indifferently, "It was Teacher Shen who made a special call. It's important to stay safe when you're out and about. She told her to take care of herself."
After saying that, he turned and left.
He didn't even glance at Shen Aizhu after getting into the car.
Shen Aizhu's mask-like smile was etched on her face, but her heart felt as if it had been slashed by a carving knife.
Is it because of that woman that he no longer looks at me properly?
...
Ji Ying was busy in the lab until the afternoon when Xie Lingfang called her out of the room.
When they arrived at the hospital, Liang Jian was still throwing a tantrum.
Ji Ying glanced at the empty bedside table next to him; he must have smashed something.
After suffering a brain injury, Liang Jian became somewhat emotional, a stark contrast to his previous calm and composed demeanor.
Before she could speak, Xie Lingfang sat down on the sofa and said, "A-Jian is injured like this because of you, and you can still go about your lousy job with a clear conscience. Men are your heaven, your support! Since you are his 'fiancée,' you should put him first in everything, otherwise how will you enter the Liang family in the future?"
Ji Ying stood at the door and calmly responded to her words, "Thank you, Madam Liang, for reminding me that I am your A-Jian's 'fiancée,' so the most important thing right now is for him to get better as soon as possible and remember what happened before, so that everyone's life can return to normal, right?"
Xie Lingfang understood the meaning behind her words and was afraid that she would not cooperate. So she suppressed the stern look in her eyes, stood up, and her tone regained its composure, but carried a warning.
“Miss Ji is a sensible person, and it would be best if she continued to be so sensible. I’m entrusting A-Jian to you. I hope that people will act in a way that is true to their conscience.”
After giving Ji Ying a warning, she wisely left.
Once the door closed, the ward was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Ji Ying walked to the bedside and picked up a cell phone that had fallen from the corner of the bed.
The screen was broken, but Ji Ying didn't ask any questions and put it on the bedside table.
"Are you unhappy?" Liang Jian asked.
“You just have memory problems, but you’re not mentally impaired. Don’t try to confuse me like this. Your mother can’t hold me back.”
As she spoke, Ji Ying took out a medicine box from the drawer to see if he had taken his medicine that afternoon.
Because of her words, Liang Jian's eyes, which were about to play the victim, immediately calmed down.
"I don't know why, but I have a feeling of insecurity about you. I want to see you every moment."
Upon hearing this, Ji Ying looked up at him, her eyes filled with a meaningful expression.
"So you didn't investigate further why you had this unease?"
Liang Jian frowned instantly.
Then came wave after wave of headaches.
He clutched his head.
Ji Ying's gaze darkened for a moment, then she placed her hand on his elbow.
"You saved my life, and I owe you a favor, but I was really busy today and didn't have time to come see you. It was my fault."
Liang Jian felt a little better, but he looked at her, panting, trying to find a trace of concern for him in her eyes.
But in her eyes, there was nothing but anxiety and helplessness.
"The Liang Jian of the past was outstanding, with admirable qualities, unlike you now..."
She poured him a glass of water and placed it on the bedside table.
"Are you very disappointed?" Liang Jian asked.
Ji Ying smiled but didn't answer. "I've left the medicine here. Remember to take it. There's a business banquet at the company tomorrow, so I can't come. Don't make a fuss."
Liang Jian's eyes darkened. He only wanted to gain her attention, but in her eyes, it was childish.
As Ji Ying finished speaking and was about to leave, Liang Jian suddenly called out to her.
"Don't stay outside anymore, come home. I promise I'll protect you in front of my mother."
Ji Ying was stunned for a moment, "What?"
Liang Jian frowned. "I know that because I was hospitalized, my mother took her anger out on you, causing you to feel wronged and move out. I will get back to the way you like as soon as possible. Move back in, and we can continue living together."
