Chapter 448: The Past

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The study door was not closed tightly. Liang Xun sensed that there was someone at the door and suddenly looked up. His gaze was sharp and cold.

Jing Yao’s hand that was knocking on the door froze and she instinctively took two steps back.

She had never seen Liang Xun like this and was a little frightened.

Liang Xun’s expression froze when he saw Jing Yao standing at the door. He panicked even more when he saw Jing Yao retreating.

He said to the other party, “Continue to keep an eye on him.” Then, he hurriedly hung up.

After hanging up, he walked up to Jing Yao cautiously.

“Baby, 1 didn’t know you were outside the door.” When Liang Xun spoke, his voice was gentle, as if he was afraid that he would scare Jing Yao if he spoke any louder.

Jing Yao came back to her senses and realized that she had overreacted just now.

However, Liang Xun’s expression when he looked up was really scary. Her heart was still beating non-stop.

Seeing that Jing Yao was still in a daze, Liang Xun guessed that she had not fully recovered.

He hurriedly held her in his arms and gently stroked Jing Yao’s back, feeling extremely vexed.

Who would have thought that his gaze would scare Jing Yao?

When he was in the company, he had the same expression as any subordinate who made a mistake. Some young ladies who had just entered the company would indeed be frightened.

Some people would even cry from fright, which saved him a lot of trouble. After all, he had an outstanding appearance and looked elegant. It was very easy for the opposite sex to be tempted, especially those young ladies who had just entered the workplace.

Last year, there was a young lady who fell in love with Liang Xun on her first day of work. Later on, she kept looking for all kinds of opportunities to hang out in front of Liang Xun and did not work seriously.

She made a careless mistake and was scolded by Liang Xun.

From then on, the young lady no longer looked at Liang Xun with admiration. She would avoid him whenever she saw him. If she couldn’t avoid him, she would smile stiffly and greet him, as if Liang Xun was a man-eating demon.

Liang Xun was glad to see it, but it would be bad if his wifey was the one who was frightened.

“Shen Yu called just now and said that he found something about the attendant at noon. He’s Huang Yan’s son.” Liang Xun’s tone was gentle as he slowly explained what happened to Jing Yao.

Jing Yao had actually recovered after Liang Xun’s coaxing.

Hearing the name “Huang Yan”, she did not react for a moment. After about four to five seconds, she realized that Huang Yan was the nanny from back then.

Back then, Zhang Li and Jing Mo asked her to bring Jing Yao to her hometown. Her hometown was remote and her living conditions were very poor. Moreover, she had a husband who loved gambling and domestic violence. She didn’t want to go back.

However, her son was seriously ill at that time. If she did not go back, her husband would definitely not take good care of her son.

In addition, Zhang Li and Jing Mo gave her a lot of money. Huang Yan was very tempted, so she agreed.

When she first brought Jing Yao back to the countryside, she actually treated Jing Yao well because she knew Jing Yao’s identity and wanted to get some benefits from the Jing Family through Jing Yao.

But as the days passed, she realized that Zhang Li and Jing Mo did not ask about Jing Yao at all. She gradually understood that Jing Yao was a child abandoned by the Jing Family.

She started to dislike Jing Yao. At most, she would give Jing Yao a bite to eat and give everything to her son first.

When Jing Yao was six years old, she suddenly fell seriously ill. At that time, she was very sick. During that period of time, her husband went out to gamble all day and would not return home at all.

Her son went to the primary school in the village. He did not study seriously and was only thinking about comparing himself to others. After school, he played crazily at the end of the village and could not be seen until mealtime.

Only the little Jing Yao would pour her a glass of water when she was hoarse and thirsty. She would also move a stool with difficulty and stand by the stove that was taller than her to make a bowl of porridge for her.

At that time, she felt guilty for the first time. When she knew that she did not have much time left, she took out the last of her savings and asked her husband, Xu Yong, to look for Jing Mo and Zhang Li in Bi City.

How could Xu Yong agree? He wanted to gamble after getting the money and didn’t want to send Jing Yao back at all.

Huang Yan told Xu Yong that the Jing Family was very rich. If he sent Jing Yao back, the Jing Family would be grateful and would definitely give him a large sum of money.

Xu Yong was tempted. After Huang Yan passed away, he really brought Jing Yao to Bi City.

Jing Yao was only six years old at that time and did not know anything. Xu Yong and Huang Yan did not care about her. She looked dirty. Zhang Li did not dare to recognize her daughter who had been sent away after six years..
