After Being Framed by Her Family, She was Pampered by a CEO from a Rich Family Chapter 40: Encountering A Love Rival

Chapter 40: Encountering A Love Rival

Liang Xun went out at four o'clock. Jing Yao was already up.

Seeing Jing Yao sitting on the balcony in a daze, he suddenly had the urge not to attend the banquet. How could a banquet compare to staying at home with his wife?

But he had to go to this banquet and meet Jing Yao's ex-fiancé.

"I'll call Auntie over to cook now. Remember to walk around the courtyard after you eat. Don't just collapse on the sofa," Liang Xun instructed worriedly.

Jing Yao waved her hand without looking back. Coincidentally, she heard the notification sound at this moment. Jing Yao picked up her cell phone and glanced at it, then looked conflicted.

Liang Xun sighed and turned to leave.

"Wait." Jing Yao stood up and stopped him.

Liang Xun turned around and looked at her in surprise, expecting her to ask him what time he would be back.

Jing Yao was stunned for a moment. She couldn't understand what Liang Xun's expression meant. She pursed her lips and said, "Liang Xun, tell Auntie not to come over. I'm meeting someone for dinner tonight."

Liang Xun's heart rose and fell. He quickly adjusted his emotions and instructed, "You can't eat hotpot skewers and Malatang."

Jing Yao replied with an "oh" in low spirits.

These were her favorites. She had not eaten them since she found out that she was pregnant.

Liang Xun was originally in a low mood. Seeing Jing Yao's pitiful expression, he was instantly amused by her cuteness and his mood improved a lot.

He walked to Jing Yao's side and touched her head, comforting her. "Be good. Bear with it. I'll eat with you in the future."

Jing Yao rolled her eyes at him without hesitation. "Are you coaxing a child? Tell that to your son in the future."

Liang Xun raised his eyebrows and suddenly knelt on one knee. He touched Jing Yao's abdomen and said seriously, "Baby, be good. Don't mess with your mother, or you'll suffer in the future."

Jing Yao curled her fingers, her heart beating violently, and she looked helpless.

Liang Xun looked up and saw her flushed face. His eyes darkened, and the frustration that had been causing trouble today was swept away.

He got up, stared at Jing Yao, and said softly, "This is how you coax a child."

Jing Yao lowered her eyes, not daring to look into his eyes. She retorted softly, "This is clearly not coaxing. You're threatening him."

Liang Xun laughed, his deep laughter ringing in Jing Yao's ears.

Hearing his laughter, Jing Yao was even more embarra.s.sed and wished she could disappear on the spot.

There was something that shocked her even more. Liang Xun suddenly lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

Liang Xun said, "I'm really coaxing you now."

"…" Jing Yao.

Jing Yao blushed and felt hot all over, but at the same time, she felt a strange feeling in her heart.

The last time Liang Xun kissed her, it was because he was drunk and his thoughts were out of control. However, this time, he was very sober. Would as.e.xuals really do such things?

"Where are you meeting? I'll send you there first before attending the banquet."

Jing Yao rejected him directly. "No need. Lingling will come and pick me up."

Liang Xun didn't say anything. He sized up Jing Yao carefully, trying to see any emotions on her face. He was quite satisfied with the outcome, so he was willing to give Jing Yao s.p.a.ce to think it through.

When Liang Xun, Zhu Sui, and the others arrived at the banquet hall, there were already many people inside. This kind of banquet was extremely free and easy. It was actually completely to let the people in the business circle get to know each other and expand their connections.

Although Liang Xun was young, his family background and ability were obvious. Countless people came up to him the moment he entered.

Liang Xun dealt with it easily. His expression did not change at all, as if he was wearing a human skin mask.

He scanned the venue and locked his gaze on one person.

Wen Chen.

Liang Xun came today for him, but he was not prepared to take the initiative to go up. A large portion of the people who came this time were here for him. After all, many businessmen in Bi City hoped to work with Liang Xun.

As expected, Wen Chen was quickly pulled over by someone. That person was also Liang Xun's friend, but they were not as close as Zhu Sui and the others. They were considered ordinary friends.

"Hey, Liang Xun." Du Chang pulled Wen Chen along to get closer to Liang Xun as he greeted him with a smile.

Liang Xun greeted Du Chang, but he kept sizing up Wen Chen.

Wen Chen vaguely sensed that when he looked at Liang Xun, he realized that Liang Xun was looking at Du Chang and talking to him. It seemed to be just his imagination.

"Come, let me introduce someone to you." Du Chang placed his hand on Wen Chen's shoulder and said, "This is Wen Chen, CEO Wen."

"This is Liang Xun, President Liang." Du Chang smiled and said to Wen Chen, "You should know him."

Wen Chen naturally knew Liang Xun. He had the intention to get in touch with Liang Xun this time.

Wen Chen took the initiative to extend his hand. "President Liang, I've heard a lot about you."
