Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The next day, Jing Yao woke up earlier than usual. The moment she woke up, she opened the door and ran out.

Liang Xun was on the phone with someone. Seeing this, he was so frightened that he rushed to Jing Yao’s side.

He only heaved a sigh of relief when he held her in his arms.

If one looked carefully, they would be able to see that his forehead was covered in sweat. He had been frightened just now.

Jing Yao was obviously pregnant now. Every time Liang Xun saw her move a little faster, his heart felt like it was suddenly grabbed by a big hand. He was nervous and uneasy.

“You scared me to death.” Liang Xun tightened his arms and sighed in fear.

Jing Yao looked up in his arms with a surprised expression. “I thought you had already left.”

Liang Xun was stunned for a moment before he understood that Jing Yao ran out of the bedroom in a hurry just now because she thought that he had already left.

Liang Xun’s heart was full. He lowered his head and kissed the top of Jing Yao’s head.

Her expression and actions were filled with cherishment.

There was actually an earlier flight when he got someone to book the plane tickets last night.

However, Liang Xun still got someone to buy the ten o’clock ticket. This way, he could get up and make breakfast for Jing Yao before going to the airport.

He didn’t want Jing Yao to not see him when she got up. He could even imagine Jing Yao’s disappointment.

“We’re boarding at ten. 1 was making breakfast and didn’t hear you get up,” Liang Xun explained.

“Okay,” Jing Yao replied softly. She was still nestled in Liang Xun’s arms and even buried her head in his neck.

It looked like she was infinitely attached to him.

Liang Xun’s hand on Jing Yao’s back paused for a moment. Jing Yao was slowly taking the initiative to get close to him. Some time ago, he felt that she still had some concerns, but now, her closeness was full of trust and attachment.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he felt a little upset. He didn’t want to let go of Jing Yao like this at all. He wanted to keep hugging her like this.

“Yaoyao, why don’t we let our father go?” Liang Xun said very seriously, clearly thinking so.

Jing Yao stopped what she was doing and pulled out of his arms. She stared at Liang Xun and said firmly, “No, go yourself.”

Liang Xun was a little depressed. “Yaoyao clearly can’t bear to part with me too. Why must I go?”

Jing Yao bit her lip. She really couldn’t bear to part with Liang Xun. Before she fell asleep from exhaustion last night, she wanted to ask Liang Xun what time his flight was, but she didn’t ask because she was really sleepy.

She woke up earlier than before this morning because she had been thinking about this matter and could not sleep well at all.

“I can’t bear to part with you. I don’t know how comfortable it will be if no one keeps controlling me after you leave.” Jing Yao didn’t mean what she said.

Liang Xun raised his eyebrows and looked at her sadly. “Is Yaoyao serious?”

Jing Yao nodded quickly, but her expression was not good. She felt inexplicably anxious at the thought of being separated from Liang Xun for so long.

However, these words could not be said to Liang Xun. Liang Xun was a person who did great things and could not be restrained by love.

“Go ahead. Although we can’t see each other, we can still video call each other every day.” Jing Yao softened her tone when she said this, as if she was coaxing a child.

Liang Xun sighed softly and kissed Jing Yao on the lips. “Alright, 1’11 go cook. Yaoyao, don’t forget the surprise you mentioned.”

Jing Yao nodded with a helpless expression. Why did she feel that Liang Xun was like a child asking for candy?

After Liang Xun entered the kitchen, Jing Yao went back to the bedroom to wash up.

Jing Yao actually didn’t have much of an appetite during breakfast, but she didn’t want Liang Xun to notice, so she still ate happily.

Liang Xun ate very slowly. He actually had to blow on the porridge.

Jing Yao looked at him strangely and suddenly asked, “Liang Xun, are you deliberately stalling for time? Be careful not to miss the plane later.”

Liang Xun was a little helpless. No matter how much he didn’t want to go on a business trip, it was impossible for him to do such a childish thing.

She put down her spoon and pointed at his lips. “You have a cut on your mouth.”

Jing Yao’s face turned red bit by bit. She did not show any mercy when she bit him last night.

Jing Yao coughed lightly and said softly, “You deserve it. Don’t you know how to be gentler?”

Liang Xun nodded readily in the face of her accusation. “Alright, I know I was wrong, Wifey. I’ll pay attention next time.”

Jing Yao was speechless.

There was always a feeling of powerlessness when a fist hit cotton..
