1446 The Reason for They Missed Each Other (2)
As she spoke, the City Lord’s wife turned to the back hall and said helplessly, “Aren’t you coming out?”
Liang Yingjun was shocked when he saw this. Then, as though he realized something, his nerves, which had just relaxed a little, tensed up again.
On the other hand, Lu Zijia’s expression didn’t change at all, as though she had long known that Cheng Xin’er was hiding in the back hall.
“Mother…”
Cheng Xin’er blushed and walked out of the back hall slowly in embarrassment.
“Do you know how to be embarrassed now?” Seeing her daughter’s attitude, the City Lord’s wife felt even more helpless.
Cheng Xin’er looked even more embarrassed, and her face was as red as a cooked crab. “Mother…”
“Alright, a grown woman can’t be kept at home.. As long as it’s your decision, I won’t object. However, you have to remember that whatever happened today was your decision. In the future, even if you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself. Do you understand?”
Towards the end, the City Lord’s wife’s expression was extremely solemn. Clearly, while reminding her daughter, she was also giving her daughter a piece of advice.
Cheng Xin’er knew that her mother was doing this for her own good, so she nodded heavily. “Mother, I understand.”
Moreover, she believed in Liang Yingjun.
She believed that after Liang Yingjun got together with her, he would treat her well for the rest of his life. It was just that Cheng Su’er, the woman who simply wanted to climb up the social ladder, didn’t know how to cherish him.
“Xin’er…”
Seeing that Cheng Xin’er was fine, Liang Yingjun heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he was at a loss.
Looking at her cousin, who was nailed to the chair like a wooden man, Lu Zijia couldn’t help but feel speechless.
The female lead was already out, but as the male lead, he was so cowardly. He was really useless!
“Ah Jun…”
Cheng Xin’er also whispered softly. If it weren’t for the fact that everyone present was a cultivator, they wouldn’t have heard her.
Seeing that the two of them seemed to have been separated and could only look at each other from afar, the corners of Lu Zijia’s mouth twitched fiercely. In the end, she couldn’t stand it anymore and moved her fingers quietly.
Liang Yingjun, who had been nailed to the chair without moving, suddenly stood up as though his butt was on fire.
Then, he pounced on Cheng Xin’er in a panic.
Just as Cheng Xin’er was about to be pounced on, Liang Yingjun suddenly calmed himself down at the critical moment.
Hence, he didn’t push her down, but came face to face with Cheng Xin’er.
Seeing her masterpiece, Lu Zijia smiled in satisfaction, like a little fox.
Liang Yingjun, who had panicked, was speechless.
“Don’t you have anything to say?”
Lu Zijia waited for a while. Seeing that the two of them were still avoiding eye contact, she couldn’t help but speak again.
“Alright, if you don’t want to speak, I’ll speak instead.”
Lu Zijia helplessly gave up on creating a chance for Liang Yingjun to confess. Then, she said to Cheng Xin’er, “Second Miss Cheng, did you go to the agreed place today?”
Afraid that Lu Zijia and the Liang family would misunderstand that she was in cahoots with the man in black, Cheng Xin’er quickly replied, “I did, but I returned to the residence after waiting for an hour.”
“An hour? Why?” Lu Zijia was puzzled.
Cheng Xin’er was clearly not someone who would give up easily. Why did she give up after waiting for only an hour?
Cheng Xin’er looked up at Liang Yingjun and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Because Ah Jun asked a child to tell me not to wait.”
Actually, the child didn’t just pass on a few words to her. He even said hurtful things like Liang Yingjun would never like an unruly young lady like her.
