Chapter 46: Meeting The Parents

Liang Xun touched his forehead, looking like an inexperienced high school student. He was overjoyed because of the shy and timid gaze of his crush.
He didn’t sleep much that night and looked at Jing Yao sideways.
Jing Yao was sleeping soundly. He couldn’t help but go up and touch her carefully.
They were so chaste. If Zhu Sui and the others found out, they would laugh at him for a year.
The next morning, he was still sleeping soundly when the phone rang.
Jing Yao was not awake yet. She hummed unhappily at the ringtone.
Liang Xun immediately sobered up and hurriedly took the phone. He hung up without even looking at who it was.
…..
However, it was obviously too late. Jing Yao opened her eyes and murmured, “The phone is ringing.”
Liang Xun touched her head and lowered his voice. “It’s fine. Go back to sleep.”
Jing Yao stretched her body slightly and woke up. “I’m not sleeping anymore. I’m a little hungry.”
Liang Xun did not let her continue sleeping. He let her get up and wash up before going to the balcony to make a call.
It was his dear mother who disturbed his sleep early in the morning. Liang Xun had nowhere to complain, so he could only call Madam Sun Jia back.
As soon as the call went through, Sun Jia said carefully, “I was too excited and couldn’t help it. Did I disturb my daughter-in-law’s sleep?”
Liang Xun said calmly, “You’ve already woken her up.”
Sun Jia was silent.
Liang Xun: “Mom, what happened to you? You couldn’t wait to call early in the morning.”
At the mention of this, Sun Jia changed her careful expression and said domineeringly, “You still have the cheek to say that? Liang Xun, if I hadn’t found out from your father’s friend yesterday, I don’t know how long I would have been kept in the dark.”
Liang Xun was puzzled. “What did I hide from you?”
Sun Jia snorted and began to list out his crimes. “It’s fine if you don’t tell us about your marriage, but you don’t even let us see our daughter-in-law. Not only that, but you don’t even tell us that our daughter-in-law is already pregnant. Am I still your mother?”
Liang Xun was speechless and could not refute. After all, that was the truth.
Sun Jia didn’t hear his voice. She snorted and said, “Do you know that you’re in the wrong? It’s simple to make up for it. Bring our daughter-in-law back to meet us. You can rest assured that I’ll definitely be the most amiable mother-in-law.”
Liang Xun said helplessly, “Mom, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but your daughter-in-law is timid. She’ll be afraid if I bring her back now. Moreover, you know that her situation is special now. Her emotions can’t fluctuate too much.”
Sun Jia sighed. “That’s true, but you can’t not tell us anything. Also, the two of you don’t have any experience at all. You don’t know what you can and can’t do when you’re pregnant. I’m worried too. I have experience and can help you.”
Liang Xun said, “It’s fine. I’ve been reading books related to pregnant women.”
Sun Jia said angrily, “That’s all theoretical. How can it be as reliable as the experience I obtained? Your father read it back then, but it was useless.”
Liang Xun could not refute.
Sun Jia knew that there was a chance. She softened her tone and said, “I know your concerns. How about this? Let me video call my daughter-in-law. If it really doesn’t work, call her. I’ll talk to her.”
Liang Xun pursed his lips. Actually, this suggestion was not bad. He wanted to spend the rest of his life with Jing Yao, so she had to slowly come into contact with his life.
“Let me discuss it with her first. Let’s make it clear first. If she doesn’t want to, then forget it. We ll talk about it when she’s willing.” Liang Xun sounded like she couldn’t disagree with him.
Sun Jia said generously, “No problem. I’ll listen to you.”
When Jing Yao came out after washing up, Liang Xun happened to hang up the phone. His gaze kept landing on Jing Yao.
Jing Yao asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
Liang Xun walked closer and deliberated over his words before saying, “My mother called just now. She said that she wants to talk to you.”
Jing Yao froze.
Liang Xun sighed helplessly, feeling that he had been too anxious.
He raised his hand and touched Jing Yao’s head, comforting her. “It’s okay. I’ll help you reject what you don’t want to say.”
Jing Yao pursed her lips, lowered her head, and whispered, “It’s not that I don’t want to. Will she not like me?”
Jing Yao was a little worried. After all, she was not liked by the elders. Even her biological parents did not like her.
“How can that be?” Liang Xun reached out and hugged her. His words were especially sincere. “She will definitely like you.”
Who could bear to not like you?
