Why was her mother here?
Didn't she say that she wouldn't come here?
Old Madam Han and Luo Yanyun hadn't expected Dong Biming to come either. Originally, it was just a meeting between two children to improve their relationship. But with Dong Biming's appearance, it had become a parents' meeting.
Fortunately, Old Madam Han and Luo Yanyun were very reasonable. When they saw Dong Biming, they quickly got up and greeted her.
"If you want to come, you should let us know in advance. We'll come to pick you up." Old Madam Han smiled.
Dong Biming quietly looked at Xia Jingfei. Seeing Xia Jingfei's unhappy expression, she forced herself to smile and said wisely, "I happened to pass by and met Liang Zixuan and Liang Jiahao outside. I was thinking since I'm already here, I decided to come and visit you guys too."
Liang Jiahao: "..."
Liang Zixuan: "...."
They remembered that she didn't seem to say that.
Luo Yanyun did her duty as hostess and asked the servant to serve tea and a plate of fruit. Han Yuanjun wasn't there yet, so they waited until he came before they started eating.
Liang Zixuan took a seat on the sofa for two people. When she saw Liang Jiahao about to sit next to her, she immediately put the bag in her hand on the seat next to her and said to Liang Jiahao with a smile. "My husband will arrive soon."
Liang Jiahao pursed his lips and saw that the sofas were full of people. Only Xia Jingfei's sofa still had a seat.
Xia Jingfei looked at him hopefully and waited for him to sit next to her.
Who knew Liang Jiahao would only glance at her and take out his cell phone. "I'm going out for a bit. I need to make a call."
With that, he came out of the living room, opened the door, and went outside to smoke a cigarette.
Things were a bit awkward for a while.
How could it be that Old Madam Han and Luo Yanyun didn't see that Liang Jiahao had no such intentions toward Xia Jingfei? Otherwise, he would not find a reason to leave.
Luo Yanyun immediately tried to smooth things over. "About that, Jiahao is very busy with his work. I think there are still some things that haven't been settled. Please don't mind him."
Dong Biming said in a particularly magnanimous manner. "He's really very busy with his work. I'm sure he attends many social events every day. It's fine, we can understand that."
Xia Jingfei was a little hurt, but she didn't show it. She smiled thoughtfully and said, "It's fine. We'll talk later."
Han Yuanjun stopped the car on the side of the road. After recognizing Liang Jiahao's car, he smiled and walked towards the villa.
At the door, Han Yuanjun saw Liang Jiahao smoking alone. He walked over and extended his hand to him.
Liang Jiahao glanced at Han Yuanjun, took a cigarette from his pocket, and handed it to him.
Han Yuanjun lit his cigarette and took a light drag. He glanced at Liang Jiahao from the corner of his eye and smiled happily. "Why don't you come inside?"
Liang Jiahao puffed out a puff of smoke and said coldly, "You asked despite knowing the answer."
Han Yuanjun laughed. "It's because I know the answer that I asked. Brother, Jingfei is just a little girl, you shouldn't bully her."
Liang Jiahao threw the cigarette butt into the trash can at the entrance and lit another one. He took a deep breath and exhaled white smoke from his mouth, which coiled around his face until his face became blurred, releasing the coldness of another world. "You think well of her, why don't you take her as your woman then."
"What?" Han Yuanjun laughed mockingly. "Brother, I'm your brother-in-law, why would you give her to me? Aren't you afraid that Zixuan will be sad when she finds out? How did you become her brother?"
Liang Jiahao smoked without saying anything. Han Yuanjun looked at him and knew that Liang Jiahao wasn't in a good mood.
That's right, no one would be happy if someone tried to force a marriage on him.
Han Yuanjun raised his hand and put it around Liang Jiahao's shoulder, trying to help him. "Actually, you don't need to be very angry."
Han Yuanjun suddenly paused and showed an expression of sympathy. "She is just an innocent little girl who will probably grieve for a long time after being rejected mercilessly by you."
Liang Jiahao was no longer in the mood to smoke. He threw the remaining cigarettes into the trash can, then turned around and went into the house without saying anything.
Han Yuanjun pouted. "You have such a bad temper and I wonder why women like you."
When the people in the house saw Liang Jiahao and Han Yuanjun enter, they all stood up. Luo Yanyun said, "Since Xiao Han is here, let's have dinner."
Everyone came into the dining room. Han Yuanjun was talking about holding a musical concert with Qiao Hongya, Old Madam Han and Luo Yanyun were talking about family matters, while Liang Jiahao and Xia Jingfei were just eating their own food without saying anything.
Liang Zixuan gave Liang Jiahao a light kick under the table. Liang Jiahao raised his head and looked at her. Liang Zixuan glanced at Xia Jingfei several times, but the meaning was clear.
Liang Jiahao shouldn't have treated her so coldly.
Liang Jiahao glanced at Xia Jingfei, then lowered his head and finished the meal. He suddenly raised his head and looked at her. "Have you finished eating?"
Xia Jingfei was stunned for a moment, then she smiled happily. She swallowed the food in her mouth before putting the chopsticks on the table and nodding shyly. "Yes, I finished eating."
Liang Jiahao pushed back his chair and stood up. "Then let's go out for a walk."
Luo Yanyun, Old Madam Han, and Dong Biming were delighted to see Liang Jiahao take the initiative to invite Xia Jingfei for a walk. They looked after the couple with smiles on their faces.
After they left, Dong Biming immediately said, "I really like Liang Jiahao. If he can become our son-in-law, I will wake up from my sleep with a smile every day."
Luo Yanyun said with a smile. "I like Jingfei too. If she succeeds in winning Jiahao's heart, then I can give an explanation to his mother."
Liang Zixuan heard their words and heaved a long sigh in her heart. From the looks of it, Liang Jiahao didn't go out with Xia Jingfei to cultivate their relationship. With a glance, she knew what Liang Jiahao was up to.
Walking out of the villa, there was a wide path lined with green trees. Liang Jiahao did not know the name of the trees, but he felt comfortable walking around them.
The small figure of Xia Jingfei could be seen beside him. She was a little embarrassed and was staring at Liang Jiahao with longing. His figure was literally bathed in the moonlight.
"Xia Jingfei." Liang Jiahao suddenly opened his mouth and said, "You saw it yesterday, I'm not as good as you think. I came from the army and trained myself very coldly. I don't have a gentleman's demeanor and don't know how to make a girl happy. I'm a man who walks his own path."
Xia Jingfei tensed up abruptly. She grabbed onto the corner of her dress with all her might and bit her lips with her head down. She felt like she was going to cry at any moment.
Liang Jiahao went straight to the point.. "You won't be happy with me, we're not suitable."
