Chapter 4 I will be responsible for you
Jiang Xu almost choked and immediately picked up a chicken leg and put it into the old lady's bowl, trying to block her mouth.
"Grandma, you should eat more too."
Old Mrs. He grumbled and was still unhappy.
After dinner, she said to He Yanting, "You should stay tonight too. Don't always try to slip away like you did before."
"knew."
He Yanting spoke in a calm tone.
Jiang Xu knew that he was just going through the motions and would soon leave when her grandmother wasn't paying attention.
Old Mrs. He was old and went to bed early, so Jiang Xu also returned to her room early.
She looked in the bathroom mirror, pulled down her collar, and checked to see if the marks had faded.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened.
He Yanting walked in.
He casually took off his suit jacket, loosened his tie, and sat down on the sofa.
Jiang Xu put his collar back on, walked out, and asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"
He Yanting raised his eyelids and looked at her: "I promised grandma that I would stay overnight."
Jiang Xu frowned and looked at the only big bed in the room.
At this time, He Yanting got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Listening to the sound of flowing water coming from inside, Jiang Xu was a little at a loss.
How is this different from before?
Soon, the bathroom door opened, and accompanied by a puff of mist, He Yanting walked out with his upper body naked.
Jiang Xu only took one look and his brain felt dizzy.
He Yanting has a habit of fitness, and it is not an exaggeration to say that his figure is worthy of being a male model.
He has well-developed pectoral muscles, perfect abdominal muscles, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and is full of strength. He looks thin when dressed and has muscles when undressed.
He Yanting dried his hair, threw the towel aside casually, and asked her, "Aren't you going to take a shower?"
Jiang Xu said, "The room is a bit stuffy, I'll go downstairs to get some fresh air."
After saying that, she turned and ran out of the room.
She stayed in the garden alone for a long time, almost an hour later. She thought He Yanting should have left, so she got up and went upstairs.
Because the servants had all gone to bed, only a small light was on in the room.
The stairs are darker.
Jiang Xu lowered his head and went upstairs, when he suddenly bumped into someone.
The man reeked of alcohol and raised his hand to block Jiang Xu's way.
"Sleeping here tonight?"
He Chengjun looked at Jiang Xu unscrupulously and smiled, "Brother Yan Ting has left you alone in the empty room again, right?"
He is the son of He Yanting's uncle, one year younger than He Yanting, and a typical playboy.
He had spoken rudely to Jiang Xu several times before.
Jiang Xu said coldly: "It's none of your business."
He Chengjun stopped her and said ambiguously: "He is not interested in you, do you want to consider me?"
Jiang Xu said angrily: "I am your sister-in-law."
He Chengjun scoffed: "Don't use He Yanting to scare me. Don't think I can't see that he doesn't care about you at all."
Jiang Xu choked and said, "Get out of the way."
He Chengjun suddenly hugged her.
The next second, a strong hand grabbed He Chengjun's collar and threw him aside.
"elder brother?"
He Chengjun rolled down the stairs and saw He Yanting, his face turned pale with fright.
"Get out! If you do that again, I'll break your legs."
He Yanting's voice was extremely cold.
He Chengjun ran away, crawling and rolling.
Jiang Xu leaned against the wall, still a little frightened. Suddenly, his foot slipped and he was about to fall down the stairs.
He Yanting put his arm around her waist and brought her into his arms.
Jiang Xu pushed him away with resistance: "Let me go."
He Yanting didn't let her go, lowered his eyes and said, "Weren't you very proactive yesterday?"
Jiang Xu's brain buzzed, and she stared at him, panicking, "I... don't understand what you're saying."
He Yanting narrowed his eyes and said, "You slept with me last night, don't you want to admit it?"
Jiang Xu stared at his handsome face so close to her, speechless.
He knows?
He actually knew?
How did he know?
"You've got the wrong person."
She turned her face away, avoiding his sharp gaze.
"Really?"
He Yanting pulled open her collar and pressed his fingers on the purple marks. "What is this?"
"besides--"
He took her hand and placed it on his back.
There are several obvious nail scratches on the strong and smooth back muscles.
"Whose masterpiece is this?"
He Yanting stared at Jiang Xu and pressed forward step by step.
Jiang Xu's back was against the wall, almost held in his arms.
She had no choice but to stammer and admit: "It was just an accident. We can pretend nothing happened."
She remembered something and quickly explained, "Don't worry, I've already taken birth control pills, so you don't have to worry about anything."
I thought these words would make He Yanting happy.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly grabbed her wrist, his handsome face twisted with anger: "Birth control pills, why didn't you ask me first?"
Jiang Xu found it funny: "Do you want to have a child with me?"
He Yanting's expression froze slightly.
Taking advantage of his inexplicable distraction, Jiang Xu broke free and ran back to the bedroom.
Her heart was in turmoil. Why did she feel like everything was suddenly a mess?
After more than ten minutes, He Yanting didn't come back. She thought He Yanting should have left, so she got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After taking a shower, she turned off the lights and lay down on the bed.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
Because of the experience of being harassed by He Chengjun, she turned on the light cautiously, only to find that it was He Yanting.
His face didn't look good. For some reason, he actually revealed a sense of brokenness that Jiang Xu couldn't understand.
He Yanting just glanced at her and lay down on the bed.
The two of them lay on each side, as if there was a large trench between them.
This was the first time Jiang Xu and He Yanting slept together except for yesterday.
Jiang Xu could hear his heart pounding.
Suddenly, He Yanting spoke:
"I will be responsible for you."
Jiang Xu pursed her lips and was about to speak when He Yanting's phone rang.
After picking up the phone, He Yanting heard what the other party said and his voice suddenly became nervous: "What did you say, she was injured?"
"Okay, you guys take care of her first, I'll be there soon."
He immediately got up and put on his clothes.
Just as he reached the door, Jiang Xu sat up from the bed and asked him, "How are you going to take responsibility?"
He Yanting paused and said, "I have something urgent to do right now. Let's talk about it another day."
After saying that, he disappeared from the door.
Jiang Xu lay back on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Judging from He Yanting's nervous look just now, it should be Jiang Xuruo who was injured. As for why she was injured at this time instead of earlier or later, Jiang Xu was not interested in exploring.
She turned over, turned off the light, and chose to sleep.
The next morning, Jiang Xu went downstairs to have breakfast with Old Mrs. He. When she learned that He Yanting was not there, she was so angry that she wanted to call He Yanting.
Jiang Xu stopped her: "Forget it, grandma, he is busy with work, don't disturb him."
Old Madam He said lovingly, "Ruanruan is so considerate and sensible. It's a blessing for Yanting to have found a girl like you in three lifetimes."
Jiang Xu lowered his head and smiled.
She is not considerate or sensible, she just doesn't care anymore.
Once my mother returns home, I can start to cancel the engagement.
Then she would stay away from He Yanting and never see him again in this life.
