Five minutes later…
Li Jing appeared in the lobby of Qin Corporation…
“Li Jing! Over here!” Jian Dan waved at Li Jing.
“Mengjiao! Madam, you’re here too.”
“It’s you!” Xia Zijie saw him.
Li Jing was Chu Liyuan’s special assistant. Back then, Li Jing was the one who took care of Xia Zijie’s matters, so of course he knew Li Jing.
“Brother, you’re here too!”
“Who are you calling brother?”
“I’m with Mengjiao now. Of course I have to call you brother.”
“You’re not married yet!”
“Although we’re not married yet, you’re Mengjiao’s brother, so you’re my brother.”
“Mengjiao told me that you’ve been taking care of her since she was young. You’ve really taken good care of her, but 1 hope that you can hand over this responsibility to me from now on. Although 1 might not be as good to her as you, I can promise you that I’ll do my best to treat her well.”
As expected of Chu Liyuan’s right-hand man, he could still perform so steadily under such a sudden attack. They could find no fault with his words!
“Brother, if you agree, 1 hope to arrange a time to have a meal with Mom and Granny to discuss things.”
“Zijie, are you unhappy that Li Jing is your brother-in-law?” Jian Dan chimed in.
“Not really. It’s just that…”
“That’s it then. Now, hurry up and arrange for them to meet!”
“But…”
“Oh! No ’but’s.” Jian Dan sat beside Zijie and whispered in his ear, “Mengjiao can’t wait any longer in her current condition. Do you want Mengjiao to be an unwed mother?”
“I know what are you worried about. You can rest assured about this. If Li Jing dares to bully Mengjiao, I will definitely get Uncle to teach him a lesson. Moreover, aren’t you joining Qin Corporation after graduation? When the time comes, you can keep an eye on him. Isn’t that great?!”
Jian Dan’s words seemed to make sense.
“Hopefully, you can remember what you said today. If you dare to bully Mengjiao in the future, I won’t let you off!”
“I will!”
Finally, the weight on his heart was lifted…
As for their family dinner, it was inconvenient for Jian Dan to join in. However, she heard from Mengjiao that it was not bad…
Mengjiao’s matter was finally resolved, but…
Sigh! She still had a hurdle that she did not know how to overcome. If only her Granny were so easy to deal with.
Now, whenever she thought of what Granny had said to her, she felt very uncertain.
I wonder what Granny will do when she comes back? Will she force me to leave Uncle? If that’s really the case, what should I do? Should I listen to Granny and leave Uncle? No, 1 don’t want to leave Uncle at all now. But if 1 don’t listen to Granny, she will definitely be very sad.
What should 1 do?
Jian Dan felt that she was about to go bald from tearing her hair out, but she still could not think of a good solution.
“Penny for your thought?”
When Chu Liyuan came back from work, he saw Jian Dan slumped over at the dining table alone with a worried expression and muttering to herself.
“Hubby, why are you back so early today? Did you miss me?”
Seeing that Chu Liyuan had returned, the worry on Jian Dan’s face disappeared. She ran over playfully and hugged Chu Liyuan’s waist.
“I missed you!”
“Silly goose!” He caressed Jian Dan’s hair and said gently.
Now, she really did not dare to imagine what she would become if she really separated from Chu Liyuan one day.
Thinking of this, Jian Dan felt a lump in her throat…
“What’s wrong?” Although there were no tears in Jian Dan’s eyes, he could feel the change in her breathing.
“Hehe! I’m happy because Mengjiao and Li Jing have finally gotten together!”
Wait! What if…
