When those words reached Li Ying's ears, her expression remained indifferent, while Jing Chi's handsome face flushed crimson, and his eyes held a hint of ambiguity.
Back home, Jing Chi gently placed Chenchen on the bed and carefully covered her with a blanket.
"Thank you for taking care of my child, Jing Shao."
Jing Chi rubbed his arm and shook his head: "Taking care of a child alone must be tiring, right?"
Li Ying didn't feel that way. When the child was young, her mother and she shared the burden, and now with Aunt Zhang, things were actually fine.
"It wasn't very hard work."
“It’s okay, I’ll come and help you take care of him whenever I have time. I really like Chenchen, and he likes me too. I feel like there’s a natural bond between us.” Jing Chi described his feelings with great enthusiasm.
Natural emotions!
Li Ying stared into Jing Chi's eyes. If there was anything different, apart from his personality, they were really similar.
"You've worked hard, Young Master Jing. You should go back now and not let your mother worry."
Jing Chi smiled happily: "You're so kind!"
After saying that, he left happily.
Watching his retreating figure, Li Ying recalled Aunt Jing's words and realized she needed to find a way to make Jing Chi give up.
Jing Chi hummed a song as he entered the living room.
"mom."
"What's making you so happy?" Aunt Jing put down the invitation in her hand and looked at Jing Chi.
"I had a great time playing with Chenchen today. I found that I get along very well with children."
Chenchen?
Isn't he Li Ying's son?
Aunt Jing's face darkened: "Jing Chi, how could you forget what your mother said again? You are the future heir of the Jing family, you must find someone of equal social standing, and don't associate with those shady women!"
Jing Chi was a little unhappy: "Mom, she's not some shady woman!"
"Alright, Mom won't talk to you about this anymore. Tomorrow is Old Master Tang's 100th birthday, and we have to go back to wish him a happy birthday."
"Didn't you say you would never return to the Tang family?"
A flicker of worldly wisdom crossed Aunt Jing's eyes: "It's all in the past now, and Mom should let it go. Get ready, okay?"
Jing Chi stood up: "I understand."
Watching her son go upstairs, Aunt Jing's chest heaved with anger. She picked up the landline and dialed Leng Yan's number.
"If you can't win over Li Ying within a week, then find a way to make her disappear from Shanghai!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The morning air is always so fresh. Li Ying changed into a beautiful outfit and took Chenchen out.
"A cold banquet!"
Leng Yan leaned against the car, a cigarette in his hand. When he saw Li Ying, he threw the cigarette away, straightened up, and took a few steps forward.
"Going to the Tang family's house?"
Li Ying didn't plan to go to the Tang family's house; she wasn't familiar with them.
"I'm not going."
"If I ask you to come with me, will you agree?" Leng Yan asked directly.
Li Ying was taken aback for a moment, and then asked directly, "Why?"
"Because you and Young Master Jing have no future, Aunt Jing doesn't want you to associate with Young Master Jing. I'll help you clear up this misunderstanding," Leng Yan said, half-jokingly.
Li Ying knew that Jing Chi's act of accompanying Chenchen to set off fireworks would definitely anger Aunt Jing.
"Tell me your idea."
"It's the same as before, being my girlfriend is a lie." Leng Yan's eyes were cold, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
Whether he says harsh words or sweet words, he only has one expression, neither sad nor happy, no different from a robot.
"good."
Li Ying agreed.
Leng Yan smiled instead: "It went much more smoothly than I expected."
He is sometimes too honest, and sometimes he is very good at pretending. This kind of person is the most unpredictable.
Li Ying knew that offending Aunt Jing was not terrible, nor was offending Jing Chi, but offending Leng Yan was the most terrible thing.
"Chenchen, do you want to go to the banquet with your uncle?" Leng Yan squatted down and asked, holding Chenchen's shoulder.
"Is Uncle Jing going?" Chenchen asked, tilting her head.
Li Ying was very embarrassed; this kid had been bribed by Jing Chi's fireworks.
"Yes, he will be there. He'll be waiting for you at the banquet. Your uncle is here to pick you and your mother up."
Chenchen clapped her hands: "Okay, okay, Mom, let's go find Uncle Jing."
Li Ying rubbed her forehead and gave a bitter smile.
There were many cars parked outside the Tang family compound, which seemed to be filled with the wealthiest people in Shanghai.
Leng Yan opened the car door and helped Li Ying and Chenchen get out.
"Yingying!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Li Ying looked up and saw Tang Qiao walking quickly towards her.
"Aunt Tang?"
"Is this Jingchi's child?" Tang Qiao squatted down, pulled Chenchen over, and cried tears of joy: "I didn't expect that you would grow up so much after two years. I'm your grandma!"
Chenchen was puzzled and looked up at Li Ying.
"As far as I know, Ye Jingchi is not from the Ye family, so this lady shouldn't make up relatives!" Leng Yan raised her hand and pulled Chenchen away.
Tang Qiao then noticed Leng Yan speaking and froze.
Why does this child look so much like her husband?
"I wondered who it was? It's you. I was wondering why my eyelids had been twitching all morning. If I had known I would run into you here, I wouldn't have come." Ye Zhonghong had grown taller, but her temper was still the same as before.
Tang Qiao pulled Ye Zhonghong away and said with a smile, "Yingying, don't blame Zhonghong, that's just how she is."
"If you know you can't speak, is it so hard to shut up?" Leng Yan choked Tang Qiao, leaving her speechless.
"Who are you?" Ye Zhonghong wanted to step forward and argue.
Tang Qiao grabbed Ye Zhonghong tightly, signaling her not to talk nonsense.
Leng Yan picked up Chenchen and said, "Come on, Uncle will take you to eat something delicious."
