The cold-hearted president falls in love with the vengeful princess
Chapter 257 You will be my wife sooner or later.
In the evening, Shen Jiayi was having dinner in the restaurant. Xia Jinghao picked up food for her while she ate. He glanced at her bowl, then his eyes turned to the braised fish fillet on the table. He stretched out his long arm, picked up a large piece of braised fish from the plate, and then placed it in Shen Jiayi's bowl. Shen Jiayi lowered her head, and the bowl suddenly sank. She raised her eyes slightly and met Xia Jinghao's warm smiling eyes.
She curled the corners of her lips and said calmly: I'll do it myself, you don't need to do it, just eat yours! Xia Jinghao smiled happily, said nothing, and served her some food again. This time he served her cuttlefish balls and stir-fried chicken cubes.
Shen Jiayi threw the bowl and put it on the dining table. When Xia Jinghao saw it, he stared at Shen Jiayi with indifferent face. He stopped picking up dishes and lowered his head to eat. Shen Jiayi felt bitter about the way he ate and picked up the bowl again.
She lowered her eyes and glanced at her bowl. Braised fish fillet, cuttlefish balls, fish maw, fried chicken cubes, and sugar-fried chestnuts and minced pork were piled up on the edge of the bowl. These were all the dishes he picked for her. Shen Jiayi was speechless. How could she eat with so many dishes piled in the bowl?
She frowned and sighed softly: Is this Xia Jinghao going to eat her into a fat woman before he is satisfied? She puffed her cheeks and ate the rice in the bowl. After a while, footsteps came from behind the restaurant. Shen Jiayi quickly put down the bowl and turned her head. It was Grandpa Ling coming over.
She stood up and walked quickly to Grandpa Ling. When Grandpa Ling saw Shen Jiayi approaching her, he narrowed his eyes and said with a gentle smile: "No, no, Jiayi, go have dinner. Grandpa Ling doesn't need your help." He is only a little over 60. He needs help to walk even when he needs to eat. This is too exaggerated.
Shen Jiajia smiled and said: "No, Grandpa Ling, I want to tell you that Xia Jinghao always puts a lot of vegetables in my bowl. The vegetables are piled up in the bowl and I don’t know how to eat them, Grandpa Ling."
As he spoke, Shen Jiayi gestured with his hands. Grandpa Ling's eyes darkened. He glanced at Xia Jinghao, who was sitting on the dining table with his head down eating. He raised his voice and said, "Haohao, is that right? Did you hear what I said?" Grandpa Ling's voice was not loud, but it was very intimidating. Xia Jinghao suddenly raised his head and glanced. When he saw Grandpa Ling, he stood up and strode over.
Grandpa Ling looked at Xia Jinghao, who was extremely handsome. Xia Jinghao also looked at Grandpa Ling, whose face looked a little strange. He twisted his eyes slightly and frowned. Then, he asked in confusion: What happened again? Grandpa Ling.
Old Master Ling glanced at Xia Jinghao, his eyes became sharper. He looked straight at Xia Jinghao, who was stunned. After a moment, his eyebrows were like the sun, moon and stars in warmth. His fox eyes turned quietly and turned to Shen Jiayi's face. A trace of guilt flashed across Shen Jiayi's face.
She glanced at Xia Jinghao, and Xia Jinghao curled his eyes and looked at her coldly with his brown pupils, and he knew what was going on. Xia Jinghao moved closer and looked at Shen Jiayi. Shen Jiayi also turned her head to meet his gaze. She pouted and said: I, I, I didn't say anything? I'm going to eat.
After saying that, Shen Jiayi turned around, took a step, and walked towards the dining table and chairs. Xia Jinghao knew that Shen Jiayi must have told him something in front of Mr. Ling, but he thought it was nothing and didn't care.
Grandpa Ling coughed at this time, and Xia Jinghao quickly looked at Grandpa Ling's face. He looked at Grandpa Ling seriously and said helplessly: Grandpa Ling, did Jiayi say something to you? His eyes were indifferent and his face was cold.
Grandpa Ling glanced at him and said in confusion: You picked up a lot of dishes for Jiayi, and she said that the dishes were piled in the bowl and she couldn't eat them, right? Xia Jinghao raised his eyelids slightly, touched the top of his head, and said in a light voice: Grandpa Ling, I want to compensate her, there is no other intention!
After pondering for a few seconds, Mr. Ling glared at him with a sharp look in his eyes and said in an old voice: I know you want to compensate Jiayi, but doing so will be counterproductive. She can pick up food by herself and doesn't need you.
Xia Jinghao pursed his lips and said nothing. After a moment of silence, he looked directly at Grandpa Ling, the light in his eyes darkened, nodded, and said lightly: "Okay, I understand, Grandpa Ling." Grandpa Ling said "um" heavily, walked past him, and walked into the restaurant.
When it was time to go to bed, Shen Jiayi still slept alone in Xia Jinghao's bedroom, while Xia Jinghao slept on the sofa. This was the last night in the Xia family villa. Shen Jiayi tossed and turned, but couldn't fall asleep. Her eyes were wide open.
After a moment, she got up, got out of bed, stepped barefoot on the carpet, walked out of the bedroom slowly, and came to the side of the sofa. She knelt slightly on the ground, then bent her legs and folded them horizontally on the carpet. She looked at Xia Jinghao carefully.
He was lying flat on the sofa, covered only with a grey blanket that reached below his belly. His beautiful eyelashes covered his eyelids, thick, long, and curled. Shen Jiayi's mouth corners were slightly raised, and she lowered her eyes to look at Xia Jinghao sleeping with a doting look in her eyes.
When he was sleeping, he was very well behaved and even had a little milk in his eyes. Her heart skipped a beat and she couldn't help but raise her hand to touch his milk-smoothed skin. Shen Jiayi blinked her eyes and looked at him. He looked so fierce but was so well behaved when he was sleeping, which made her feel maternal.
Shen Jiayi stared at his eyelashes. His eyelashes were so beautiful, like a doll's. How could a boy's eyelashes be so curled? Then, she narrowed her eyes slightly and saw Xia Jinghao's petal lips move slightly. He frowned and murmured in a dreamy voice: Jiayi, Shen Jiayi, don't go, don't leave me, you are mine, you can only be mine, and mine alone.
Shen Jiayi was stunned, her eyes widened like bells, and she looked at Xia Jinghao with her mouth wide open. Is this boy dreaming? Then, Xia Jinghao continued to breathe rapidly and said: Believe me, believe me, the person I love from the beginning to the end is you. His voice in his sleep was full of grief, and Shen Jiayi felt a pang of pain in her heart.
So, has Xia Jinghao been like this during the days when she lost contact? A tear flashed in Shen Jiayi's eyes, and mist covered her pupils. She pinched her nose and looked at him. "I made you sad, Xia Jinghao, no, never again. I will not abandon you."
Shen Jiayi kept her back straight. She bent down and kissed him on the forehead, a very light kiss, a kiss full of apology. Her lips left his forehead, and Shen Jiayi stood up gently. She looked at Xia Jinghao deeply again before turning around and walking towards the bedroom.
Shen Jiayi turned and left. Xia Jinghao slowly opened his eyes. He tilted his head and looked at the closed bedroom door. He raised his hand and touched his forehead. Shen Jiayi kissed his forehead, a very light kiss. He actually said those words on purpose for Shen Jiayi to hear, because he knew that she would go to bed very late tonight, and sure enough.
A sweet smile appeared on Xia Jinghao's lips. He smiled and murmured: It doesn't matter, as long as it's you, Shen Jiayi, I'm willing to do anything and change anything for you! He has been with her these days, and he knows what it feels like to lose and regain something. It's like holding a newly bought item in your hand, but accidentally losing it. You try your best to get it back, and finally you get it back. You feel your heart responding and beating.
Shen Jiayi pulled up the quilt and turned over, but she couldn't fall asleep. A trace of guilt flashed across her eyes. It was her who misunderstood him without knowing it clearly. She really thought that he was... Then, Shen Jiayi sat up again and sat with her back against the bedside table.
It was not until the sky was almost turning pale that Shen Jiayi began to feel sleepy. She lay down on the bed drowsily, but the quilt fell on the carpet and she fell into a drowsy sleep. She did not open her eyes until three o'clock in the afternoon of the next day.
Shen Jiayi shook her sore and numb neck, got up from the bed and walked to the bathroom. After washing up in the bathroom, she walked out of the bathroom, went to a corner beside the bed, squatted down, and packed her suitcase. Tonight, she would go back to her apartment.
After going downstairs, seeing that there was no one in the villa, Shen Jiayi walked to the sofa area of the villa and sat on the sofa. After a while, there was a sound of footsteps from the left side of the sofa. Shen Jiayi raised her eyes and turned her head to look over. It was Grandpa Ling, and he was holding something in his hand.
Shen Jiayi got up from the sofa and walked forward with a smile. Mr. Ling walked with his head down. When he saw the rose-colored high heels that suddenly appeared, he raised his head and saw that it was Shen Jiayi. He said happily: Are you awake? Jiayi, are you awake?
Shen Jiayi covered her mouth and smiled, a hint of embarrassment flashed in her eyes. She said with a wry smile: "You're awake, but Grandpa Ling, what are you holding in your hand?" Shen Jiayi looked at a bag in Grandpa Ling's hand. There was a little bulge in the bag, a white tape bag.
Grandpa Ling picked up the tape bag in his hand, he opened the film of the bag with both hands, and inside was rose-colored. Shen Jiayi was stunned, she looked at Grandpa Ling with wide eyes, Grandpa Ling raised his eyelids and looked at her, smiled mysteriously and said: Jiayi, you will know what it is if you try it?
Shen Jiayi tilted her head and looked at Grandpa Ling blankly with her black gemstone eyes. Then, she reached out to pick up the rose petals on the film. God knows how much she likes rose things. Could it be that these are edible rose petals?
Shen Jiayijia put the pale pink rose petals into her mouth, chewed them, and found them slightly sweet. Then, she swallowed them. She stared at Grandpa Ling with wide eyes, and said in disbelief: What is this? Grandpa Ling, you can actually swallow it. This, this, this...
Old Master Ling smiled, then stroked his gray beard, looked directly at Shen Jiayi with eyes full of doting, and said with a smile: This is the rose cake I asked Butler Mo to find. This kind of cake can be made into various shapes, which are indistinguishable from the real thing. Then, I planted a lot of them and put them in a garden in the villa.
Shen Jiayi was stunned for a moment, then she looked at Grandpa Ling with wide eyes and exclaimed: Wow, this is incredible, I thought it was really edible rose petals, but it turned out to be...
Then, Grandpa Ling brought a packaging bag, packed it for Shen Jiayi, and asked her to take it back to the kitchen of the apartment to heat it up and eat it. Shen Jiayi was of course very happy because this was another rose-flavored thing. Shen Jiayi also accompanied Grandpa Ling in the study to read a book.
Grandpa Ling was reading a philosophy book, and Shen Jiayi was reading a story book. They kept reading until 5:30 in the afternoon. Shen Jiayi walked out of the Xia family villa with a suitcase. Grandpa Ling saw her out of the villa. He asked Butler Mo to drive Shen Jiayi to Xia Group, and she was going back to the apartment.
Shen Jiayi opened the door of the extended Bentley. She thought of something and turned to look at Grandpa Ling. She said in confusion: "Ah, my BMW, I just remembered that it is still at the entrance of Haidu Center. What should Grandpa Ling do?" Grandpa Ling looked at the reckless Shen Jiayi.
He smiled warmly and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry. As for your car, I asked Haohao to ask someone to drive it back. When you return to the apartment, you will see your car." Shen Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief. That's good. At that time, Xia Jinghao held her hand and walked towards the gate of Youlan Garden.
She had forgotten about the car until today when she remembered that she drove there... Shen Jiayi sat in the passenger seat, she turned her eyes to look at Grandpa Ling standing outside the car window, she smiled gently, waved her hand and said: "I'm leaving now, I'll go see Xia Jinghao, and then I'll go back to the apartment, Grandpa Ling."
Grandpa Ling nodded slightly at Shen Jiayi. He walked forward, held Shen Jiayi's waving hand, and said with a gentle look: Go back to the apartment and have a good rest. Don't be angry with Haohao anymore. He really cares about you. Don't worry about his care. No matter how big the misunderstanding is, you two should communicate well and don't quarrel anymore!
Shen Jiayi nodded heavily, her eyes were full of emotion, her eyes were slightly wet, she nodded, and said softly: "Okay, I know, Grandpa Ling, I know, you take good care of yourself, I will come to see you when I have time." Then, the stretched Bentley left the door of the villa. Grandpa Ling watched the stretched Bentley slowly disappear from his sight, and he murmured: I hope these two people are really reconciled!
