Old Mr. Jing pushed Jing Shaofan and said, “Go upstairs and have a look. Don’t let him beat Yan Yan. If my great-grandson gets hurt, I won’t let you go.”
Jing Shaofan felt helpless. If Li Muchen didn’t spoil Jing Yangxi too much, the little boy wouldn’t have been so naughty. Besides, Jing Yangxi’s biological father was there watching. How could Li Muchen beat him?
Upon seeing the scene, Zhang Luoya wiped her tears and said softly, “Grandpa, I’m fine. It’s not Yan Yan’s fault.”
Old Mr. Jing had no choice but to say, “Luoya, don’t be angry. Yan Yan is a spoiled child.”
“Yes, that’s right. Actually, Yan Yan likes you very much.” Li Manting was also trying to smooth things over.
Old Mr. Jing sighed and sat down. It was only then that he realized that Jiu Jiu was still sitting there in a docile manner. She just looked at them quietly with her big eyes. Much to his surprise, she was not frightened by the chaos at all.
He patted her on the head affectionately, handed her the slice of strawberry cake, and said, “Jiu Jiu, eat some cake.”
Jiu Jiu nodded obediently. “Thank you, Great-grandpa.”
She ate the cake quietly. Opposite her, Jing Muchen looked at her again with his deep and bright eyes.
Since the first time he saw her today, he noticed that he always looked at her unconsciously. Su Ruowan’s daughter was a half-head shorter than Jing Yanxi. She was so thin that it was hard to tell how old she was. But obviously, Su Ruowan remarried and got pregnant so soon after their divorce.
He picked up his glass and took a sip of red wine.
Li Manting pulled his sleeve and said, “Your fiancee is crying. Why don’t you pacify her? You have been drinking so much. Aren’t you going back to the company this afternoon?”
Jing Muchen just turned a deaf ear to her and continued drinking. She was quite dissatisfied, so her voice slightly rose, “A Chen, what’s wrong with you today?”
Seeing this scene, Zhang Luoya felt both aggrieved and sad. She was his fiancee. But why was he so indifferent to her? But still, she pretended to be gentle and considerate despite feeling aggrieved. She shook her head at Li Manting.
“Apologize to your Auntie.” At this time, Li Muchen dragged Jing Yanxi downstairs.
With an obvious unwillingness on his face, Jing Yanxi pouted. But he said, “I’m sorry. I was wrong just now.”
Actually, he thought to himself that making a compromise was also a tactic. He would definitely take his revenge soon.
Old Mr. Jing smiled and said, “Well, all children have naughtiness. When you and your brother were little boys, you two fought in the living room every day. You wrestled and rolled everywhere. The floor didn’t even need to be cleaned at that time.”
Jing Muxuan suddenly burst into laughter.
Li Muchen didn’t say anything.
Jing Muchen was also rendered speechless.
Jiu Jiu reached out her hands and took out the pink bag behind her. “Yan Yan, this is Mommy’s gift for you.”
As soon as Jing Yanxi heard that it was a gift from Su Ruowan, he seemed to forget all the unhappiness in his heart. His eyes lit up as he held the bag tightly in front of his chest. It was as if it was a treasure.
“Be careful!” Jiu Jiu quickly reminded. “There are cookies inside. Don’t crush them.”
“Okay.” Jing Yanxi nodded as if he was making a promise. He then caressed the bag again and again joyfully, smiling like a little fool.
Looking at the two kids, Old Mr. Jing couldn’t help laughing. He said, “Jiu Jiu, can you also come to my birthday next time?”
Jiu Jiu asked innocently, “Great-grandpa, are you also going to celebrate your fifth birthday?”
Old Mr. Jing said, “No. I will be celebrating my eightieth birthday. By that time, you must come and eat cake with me.”
Jiu Jiu’s mouth opened wide in awe. She blinked her big eyes and said, “Great-grandpa, you are so awesome! When is your birthday?”
Amused, Old Mr. Jing touched his beard and said, “It’s still so early. My birthday is in winter. How about you, Jiu Jiu? When is your birthday?”
Jiu Jiu grinned, revealing a row of neat, small white teeth. “Tomorrow is my fifth birthday,” she said in a sweet voice.
With a loud bang, the wine bottle in Jing Muchen’s hand fell on the table..
