Chapter 5
Liang Xun didn’t say anything and let Jing Yao size up him. That night, he was very sober, but the person in front of him wasn’t conscious at all. He thought that it was a person sent to him by a business partner, but more than a month had passed, and no one came to look for him.
He accepted the person sent over, but the person who asked him to do something did not come.
This did not make sense no matter what. Something must have gone wrong.
“What are you called?”
Yes?
Jing Yao didn’t know what he wanted to do, but she still answered, “Jing Yao.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the discomfort hit her again. She turned around and retched for a long time. This time, she couldn’t vomit anything.
“You threw up like that over a glass of wine?”
Uh, was she being looked down on?!
“No, my stomach hasn’t been feeling well recently, which is why I have such a big reaction,” Jing Yao explained.
Liang Xun frowned even more and was a little angry. In fact, he had been a little angry since he saw Jing Yao sitting there drinking with that greasy man.
“Drinking when your stomach is upset?”
Jing Yao only felt that the current situation was very strange. It was already good enough for someone she didn’t know to help her out of kindness, but why did this person sound like he was concerned about her and a little angry?
“Go to the hospital for a checkup.”
“What?” Jing Yao was struck dumb for a second, then quickly said, “Okay, I’ll go there later. Thank you so much for what you did just now. May I ask…”
“I said go now.”
Before Jing Yao came back to her senses, the man had already taken her hand and led her out.
Jing Yao followed him in a daze. Suddenly, she realized that something was wrong and stopped.
“This gentleman…”
Liang Xun interrupted her calmly, “My name is Liang Xun.”
Jing Yao nodded and said smoothly, “Mr. Liang, I was very grateful just now, but I…”
Before she could finish speaking, Liang Xun had already handed her a business card.
Seeing that Jing Yao didn’t trust him, he deliberately lowered his voice. “You should go to the hospital for a checkup now. This is my business card. If you’re worried, you can call your friend.”
“…” Jing Yao.
Jing Yao had nothing more to say. It wasn’t until she got into the car that she realized that she didn’t bring her cell phone or wallet with her. How could she have the guts to follow a person she had just met?
Later on, whenever Jing Yao thought of this “first encounter”, she felt that she had been completely bewitched by Liang Xun’s beauty.
Jing Yao regretted it the moment she got into the car. The man seemed to know what she was thinking. He took out his phone, unlocked it, and handed it to her.
“You can call your friend.”
Jing Yao heaved a sigh of relief and took the cell phone after thanking him.
Zhu Ling was very worried about her and forced her to remember her phone number. At this moment, she realized that Zhu Ling really had foresight.
Zhu Ling had been looking for her for a long time. When Zhu Ling received her call, she asked a lot of questions. Jing Yao briefly told her what had just happened and said that a kind-hearted man wanted to take her to the hospital for a checkup.
Zhu Ling said suspiciously, “Who is that? What’s his name? How can there be good intentions for no reason these days? You’re innocent. You might even help him count the money after being sold.”
Jing Yao pouted and looked up at Liang Xun awkwardly. Seeing that the man wasn’t looking over, she whispered, “He said his name is Liang Xun. I saw his business card.”
“Liang Xun?!”
Zhu Ling shouted in surprise. After calming down, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Ah, that’s fine. He’s my Brother’s buddy. Why is the company looking for me again? Yaoyao, follow him to the hospital and have a good checkup. I’ll look for you after I’m done. Call me if there’s anything.”
Jing Yao didn’t expect that there would be such a coincidence. The person who helped her out of kindness happened to be Zhu Ling’s brother’s friend.
After hanging up, she returned the phone to Liang Xun.
After that, the car fell silent.
Jing Yao was mentally prepared before she said, “Mr. Liang, I heard from Zhu Ling that you’re her brother’s friend.”
Liang Xun glanced at her and nodded after a moment.
Jing Yao smiled and briefly talked about her relationship with Zhu Ling.
Liang Xun remained silent for a long time.
He had never seen Zhu Ling before. According to Zhu Sui, she was a busy person, but his buddy adored his sister, Zhu Ling, very much. Every time they met, he would talk about his sister, so she could be considered a familiar stranger.
Hearing Jing Yao’s words, he suddenly remembered something. Zhu Sui always complained to them that his sister had a poor best friend who had a vicious mother and twin sister at home.
As soon as she became an adult, her mother asked her to go out to earn money and even took her salary card. Jing Yao’s college tuition fees were all saved by herself.
So Jing Yao was that poor girl?
Vicious mother and sister?
