Zhang Li sensed that Liang Xun sized her up coldly and immediately became even more nervous. She wanted to give Liang Xun a friendly smile, but she did not perform well. Her smile was very stiff.
Liang Xunâs face was expressionless as he looked away, as if she did not exist.
Zhang Liâs face heated up. She could not even look up at this embarrassment.
For nearly a minute, she did not dare to look up again, so she did not notice.
While she was lowering her head, Jing Yao had already coaxed Liang Jing and glanced at her.
In fact, Jing Yao had already sensed Zhang Liâs existence. After all, Zhang Li had been looking at her with a complicated expression ever since she came in.
It was impossible for Jing Yao to ignore her gaze, which was filled with so many complicated emotions.
Seeing Zhang Li would indeed make her feel especially uncomfortable. Zhang Li had left a huge psychological trauma on her, so she felt uncomfortable when she saw Zhang Li.
However, she was not alone now, so her reaction was not as strong as before.
Most of the Zhang Familyâs attention was on Zhang Li and Jing Yao.
Zhang Hui was worried. He was afraid that Zhang Li would bring Jing Yao more unhappiness.
However, Zhang Ji, who had promised to help Zhang Li, was the most nervous.
If anything happened because of his soft-heartedness, he would probably not be able to go home for a long time, let alone Zhang Li.
Zhang Ji was still conflicted about how to ease the tense atmosphere when Yu He spoke, âYou came back at the right time. The food has just been prepared. Take Little Dumpling to wash your hands and prepare to eat.â
Jing Yao and Liang Xun looked at each other. Liang Xun took Little Dumpling from Jing Yaoâs arms and nodded.
After that, Liang Xun greeted Grandpa again, then carried his son and brought Jing Yao to their room.
After the two of them left, the living room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Zhang Ji and Zhang Hui looked at each other in fear.
Jing Yao only called Grandpa just now and didnât call them at all. Did that mean that she was angry?
Angry that they were helping Zhang Li?
Actually, their worry was wrong. It wasnât Jing Yao who was angry, but Liang Xun. He only called Grandpa instead of Zhang Jing and Zhang Ji, his two uncles, because he was still very dissatisfied with this matter.
Fortunately, he wasnât at home and it was someone elseâs house. If he was in the company, he would have started scolding people long ago.
However, Jing Yao didnât feel much because she was angry. She just didnât want to talk to Zhang Li, so she hurriedly followed Liang Xun into the room after greeting her Grandpa.
Zhang Li had a bitter expression on her face, as if she was about to cry.
However, everyone present had their own thoughts, and no one had the time to care about her.
Zhang Hui saw everyoneâs reaction and said expressionlessly, âTake a seat first. Yaoyao and her husband have gone out to play for a day. Theyâre probably very hungry at this time.â
Jing Yaoâs family of three entered the room.
Seeing Jing Yaoâs dazed expression, Liang Xun knew that she was actually still affected.
Holding his son in one hand and Jing Yao in the back with the other, he said, â1â11 take you back now.â
These words were not a joke at all, nor was it an impulsive decision. He even regretted suggesting bringing Jing Yao here to leave a good impression on Zhang Hui.
From the looks of it, there was no need at all. It was fine if he let go of the Zhang Family as a relative.
Jing Yao came back to her senses. She shook her head and smiled.
âNo need. Didnât I say that I would stay here for a few days? I havenât gone to many places yet, and 1 agreed to see Zhang Li.â Jing Yao refused.
Liang Xun knew Jing Yao very well, so he didnât mention going home again. He only said, âThen go wash your hands and go out to eat.â
Jing Yao nodded and went into the washroom to wash her hands.
When the family of three came out again, the Zhang Family was already seated. The seat reserved for them was very unique.
Zhang Li was very far away from them, but she was not opposite them.
If she didnât deliberately look for such a position, Jing Yao wouldnât notice Zhang Li even after the meal.
Liang Xun was quite satisfied with this seating arrangement, but even so, he still sat closer to Zhang Li. This way, Zhang Li would have to surpass him if she wanted to talk to Jing Yao.
It could be considered an invisible barrier..
