Chapter 49: Mrs. Liang Is Very Beautiful
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was Saturday today and Wen Chen was also at home. He looked very pale after returning home last night, as if something bad had happened at the banquet.
This morning, not long after breakfast, Jing Yuan came again. This time, she came alone.
Cheng Wan did not look too good. Although they were both girls of the Jing Family, Jing Yao was completely different from Jing Yuan. Jing Yao was obedient and did not talk much. Jing Yuan liked to do things to please the elders, and many elders thought that she was sweet-talking.
Cheng Wan did not think so. In her opinion, this girl was too fake.
Wen Chen didn’t want to see Jing Yuan either. He would think of Jing Yao whenever he saw her.
However, since she was already here, he could not chase her out.
“Brother Chen, was the banquet fun last night?” Jing Yuan sat beside Wen Chen.
Wen Chen retreated a little to the side with a cold expression. “It’s just to get to know more people. There’s nothing fun about it.”
He had gone last night mainly to get to know Liang Xun, but he did not get Liang Xun’s contact number at all. Instead, he heard Liang Xun praise his new wife for a long time, calling her his wifey.
Noticing Wen Chen’s evasion, a trace of unhappiness flashed across Jing Yuan’s face, but she quickly covered it up. She smiled and said, “Then do you know a few people who can help you?”
Speaking of this, Wen Chen’s expression turned even uglier. He said in a low voice, “I saw one. He’s Liang Xun from the Liang Corporation. You should have heard of him.”
Jing Yuan forced a smile. “I’ve heard of him. It’s said that he’s young and promising?”
Wen Chen frowned slightly. He was of the same age as Liang Xun and thought that he was young and promising, but Liang Xun was the benchmark of the industry.
He had worked hard since he was young and had never done anything out of line. However, his achievements were inferior to Liang Xun’s. This more or less made him a little depressed.
“He’s alright.” Although Wen Chen was unwilling to admit it, it was the truth. “However, he seems to have just gotten married.”
Jing Yuan’s eyelids twitched slightly. She said calmly, “Has Brother Chen seen his new wife? How is she? Isn’t she very beautiful?”8
Jing Yuan’s question successfully reminded Wen Chen of Liang Xun’s answer last night and the blissful expression on his face when he said these words. He suddenly felt that his career and marriage could be grasped together. It was not bad to have a gentle and beautiful wife waiting for him when he returned home from work every day.
At the thought of a wife, Jing Yao appeared in Wen Chen’s mind.
Jing Yao’s appearance was impeccable. Although her personality was not as cute as when she was young, it was not unacceptable. He could let her change slowly.
A smile appeared in Wen Chen’s eyes. He said, “Mrs. Liang is very beautiful. Although the two of them got married after having a child, they’re quite compatible.”
Although he had never seen her before, from Liang Xun’s description, they should be compatible. Liang Xun did not hide his liking for her.
Get married with a child? Then why was Jing Yao with Liang Xun that day?
Jing Yuan thought of a possibility and a vicious look appeared on her face. Jing Yao had hooked up with a married man and Mrs. Liang was pregnant.
If this was exposed, Jing Yao’s reputation would definitely be ruined. At that time, it would be useless even if she had a beautiful face. Everyone would despise her, just like when she was young.
Jing Yuan was so excited that her hands were trembling slightly.
Wen Chen noticed her abnormality and asked in confusion, “Yuanyuan, what’s wrong?”
Jing Yuan immediately came back to her senses and smiled. “It’s alright. Brother Chen, my birthday is coming soon. You must come then. I’ll send the invitation over in two days.”
Birthday?
Jing Yao and Jing Yuan were twins. Their birthdays were on the same day, which was also Jing Yao’s birthday.
Wen Chen did not hesitate at all. He nodded and said, “I’ll definitely go.”
Jing Yuan got the answer she wanted and left quickly.
Wen Chen sat on the sofa and could not read the newspaper anymore. He went straight to the balcony on the second floor.
Cheng Wan did not want to see Jing Yuan and was sunbathing on the balcony.
“What did Jing Yuan tell you? Did she say bad things about Yaoyao again?” Cheng Wan sat on the recliner and looked up at her son.
Wen Chen was a little helpless. “No, she just came to ask about the banquet last night and invited me to her birthday banquet. Mom, why are you so biased against Yuanyuan?”
Cheng Wan looked at her son and wanted to sigh. “It’s not that I’m prejudiced against Jing Yuan, but you’re prejudiced against Yaoyao.”
Wen Chen didn’t look good. “I didn’t. She changed after she grew up. Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Mom, ask Jing Yao out. No matter what happened in the past, 1 have something to tell her in person.”
Cheng Wan looked at her son and saw that he looked a little uncomfortable. She guessed what he wanted to do and said in relief, “Alright, you two should have a good talk..”
