Chapter 158: You're Jealous
Jing Jiaren panted slightly and appeared in the restaurant with a small cake, which was particularly incompatible with the dignified and elegant people inside.
Jing Jiaren looked at Huo Tingxiao, the man was cutting the beef on the plate at the moment, and as soon as he cut a piece out, the woman next to him picked up a fork and took it over.
"Thank you, Brother Tingxiao, you remember that I like to eat this." The woman also had a smile in her eyes when she spoke.
Huo Tingxiao, who was coerced with a piece of beef, did not have a trace of abnormal reaction, and continued to cut it on the plate, as if it was specially for the woman beside him.
Jing Jiaren shook the grass in her heart.
Didn't you say that the old man was clean, why didn't he have a habit at this time?
But looking at the looks of the servants around me, it seems to be a habitual thing.
At this time, Lin Zhiqing walked out of the kitchen with a plate of dumplings, followed by a string of maids and nannies staring at the plate in her hand very nervously, for fear that it would be broken in the next second.
But Lin Zhiqing himself had a soft smile on his face, as Mrs. Lin, who was born in everyone's daughter, Jing Jiaren rarely saw her so happy, it was obvious that she liked this woman sitting next to Huo Tingxiao very much.
"Tsing Yi, come, this is the dumpling you want." Lin Zhiqing put the plate in front of her with her own hand, and the sound of the jade bracelet on her wrist colliding with the porcelain plate was crisp, which should be rude, but Mrs. Lin was overjoyed and didn't pay attention to these small details.
It shows how much she likes this woman.
"Your kid went abroad without saying a word, and several elders didn't persuade him to come back, but now it's okay, and he eats the dumplings at home every day." Lin Zhiqing's tone was quite disgusting, "Hurry up while it's hot!" β
The woman was not restrained at all, and smiled very well-behaved: "Okay, good, I want to taste Aunt Qing's craftsmanship!" Come and sit down, it's been a busy afternoon. β
Lin Zhiqing also sat down with a smile, and his eyes that didn't look at anything external were full of the dignified and well-behaved woman in front of him.
It wasn't until she picked up the chopsticks and picked up the dishes that she saw Jing Jiaren standing at the entrance of the restaurant.
The smile on Lin Zhiqing's face almost disappeared at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, and she put down her chopsticks and asked without being salty.
"You're back, wash your hands and eat." Lin Zhiqing said.
Hearing the sound, Huo Tingxiao and the woman next to him raised their heads at the same time and looked over, Jing Jiaren felt that something was quite bad.
The woman's eyes ......
It's going to be over, it's going to be over.
Her huge inheritance, which is about to arrive, will not fly!
Jing Jiaren wanted to stomp on Huo Tingxiao very much at this time, but she didn't have the guts.
Heroes step on people, it's not too late in a few days, let you go first! Jing Jiaxin thought.
When Huo Tingxiao looked over, the knife and fork in his hand stopped: "Have you eaten?" β
Jing Jiaren smiled slightly: "No, but I'm not hungry." β
As she spoke, she continued to smile and handed the small cake she was carrying to the butler behind her.
"Grandpa housekeeper, this is a small cake specially bought for you on the road, remember to eat it~"
Jing Jiaren calmly stuffed the cake into the housekeeper's hand, which made the old man a little moved.
At this time, she seemed to have instantly become the cold girl who was as immobile as a mountain before, rejecting thousands of miles.
Huo Tingxiao frowned slightly.
From the time the woman next to him found Jing Jiaren, her eyes went back and forth between the two. Finally waiting for the two to speak, she looked at Lin Zhiqing with a smile.
"Aunt Qing, this is the beautiful sister you often mention to me, right? Why don't you hurry up and introduce it! β
Lin Zhiqing's smile bloomed again: "You kid, you're curious about everything." β
"This is Jing Jiaren, Tingxiao's current wife, you can call your sister-in-law directly." After Lin Zhiqing finished speaking, he looked at Jing Jiaren again, "Beauty, this is Xu Qingyi, the daughter of the Xu Mansion of the family, the childhood sweetheart who grew up with Tingxiao, and the two were engaged by the elders together when they were young!" β
As if it was deliberately said to Jing Jiaren, the words "now" and "childhood sweetheart" are particularly heavy.
Lin Zhiqing joked as he spoke, and laughed at the little girl next to him: "Aunt Qing loves to tease me with this matter, you see that Sister Beauty is still there!" β
Jing Jiaren felt as if she had come to the scene where some little guy tore her face, and she was that little guy.
However, her more than ten years of calm kung fu are not in vain, and there is no trace of dissatisfaction on her face when she hears the words, although her expression is still very light, she can't find any fault in the number of etiquette.
"Xu Qingyi? Is it a family with Xu Qingpei? Jing Jiaren asked.
Lin Zhiqing turned around and took the time to speak: "Yes, it's Qingpei's Xu family, but Qingpei is the child of their outer branch, and Qingyi is a descendant, although it is a family, it can't be the same day." β
Xu Qingyi answered in a timely manner: "It turns out that the beautiful sister still knows my sister, that's better, I'm worried about returning to China without a companion, let's go shopping together!" β
Lin Zhiqing blamed her: "What is your sister-in-law, after all, it's your sister-in-law, and it's messed up." β
Xu Qingyi smiled very well-behaved: "Oh, Aunt Qing, the beautiful sister is so young and so good-looking, how old it is to call her sister-in-law, it is more comfortable to call her sister!" β
Jing Jiaren nodded in agreement: "Well, yes, speaking of which, I should be one year younger than you, why don't you call me sister and Huo Tingxiao's brother-in-law, what do you think?" β
The smile on Xu Qingyi's face paused for a second, and he looked at Lin Zhiqing a little helplessly.
That seems to say, why are you so ignorant.
Lin Zhiqing didn't expect Jing Jiaren to be so ignorant, and she openly disregarded Xu Qingyi's face at the banquet, and her face suddenly became unsightly.
Just as he was about to speak out as a lecture, the man on the throne stood up.
"Nonsense!" The man's voice was low and irresistible.
The restaurant was silent for a moment.
He looked at Jing Jiaren and said, "The wife of the president of the Huo family doesn't take a driver when she travels, is she afraid that I will lose you?" β
"You're the president's wife, it's my wife, you should enjoy this." Huo Tingxiao said and walked out, "Don't let me see you do anything that loses your identity in the future." β
Jing Jiaren was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.
Huo Tingxiao took two steps and looked back at Jing Jiaren: "Don't go back yet?" β
She obediently followed and left the restaurant.
After the two left, Xu Qingyi picked it up for a long time and smiled: "Aunt Qing, why do I think that Brother Tingxiao's words just now are warning me not to disobey the beauty...... Oh no, what about the identity of the sister-in-law? β
Lin Zhiqing waved his hand: "You kid, you want to be so complicated, Tingxiao is just reprimanding her for not understanding the rules." A girl from a medium family background with throat problems, and their marriage is bothβ"
Lin Zhiqing was shocked to realize that he almost missed his mouth, so he stopped in time.
"What are they?" Xu Qingyi followed and asked.
"It's okay, come and eat, don't think so much about the two of them."
ββ
Jing Jiaren was taken back to the room by Huo Tingxiao, still thinking about what happened downstairs just now.
Obviously, that Xu Qingyi was the opposite of her as soon as she appeared. Xu Qingyi couldn't find anything wrong with her words, but every word was pushing her in the opposite direction of everyone.
She knew very well that she had no grievances with the daughter of the Huo family who fell from the sky, so the problem appeared in the man in front of her, Huo Tingxiao.
"Grass!" Jing Jia's mouth vomited fragrantly.
How can any bloody thing be heard by her.
Huo Tingxiao frowned when he heard this: "Dirty again." β
Jing Jiaren looked at him with a smile: "As we all know, grass is a plant. β
After speaking, Jing Jiaren took the lead in entering the room, and she didn't plan to say anything to Huo Tingxiao.
I don't plan to ask him why he didn't keep the agreement and leave her out alone, I don't plan to ask him what his relationship is with that Xu Qingyi, and whether she needs to give up Mrs. Huo's position.
While taking a bath, Jing Jiaren secretly scolded Huo Tingxiao in her heart, but she was still thinking about how long she could hold her thigh, and if she was replaced, who else could she choose.
Shen Er, that poor ghost, definitely can't do it; Shen Hanyao was already covering Jiang Li, and he couldn't tell her to care about her; The whisper is smaller than her, and she feels that she may be a little unable to do it when she goes to eat and drink a younger brother for nothing...... Who else could there be, Lu Yun?
Jing Jiaren filtered out the name in her mind and nodded thoughtfully.
She wiped her head with a towel and asked Huo Tingxiao: "Is that person named Lu Yun rich?" β
Huo Tingxiao was watching the evening news when he heard the sound and looked up at her.
"Yes." Huo Tingxiao said, "What do you do like this? β
"Nothing, look into it." Jing Jiaren said, "Then do you have money or is he rich?" β
Huo Tingxiao said: "The strength is evenly matched. β
"But if you really want to compare, the Lu clan can't compete with the Huo clan." Huo Tingxiao, who said this, seemed to have a little arrogance in his tone.
Jing Jiaren didn't know if it was her own delusion, but she didn't care.
If you have money, you can do so much!
Jing Jiaren was thinking about her plan in her heart, and she didn't notice that Huo Tingxiao had already put away the newspaper.
"I'm sorry, I missed my appointment today." Huo Tingxiao said suddenly.
Hearing this, Jing Jiaren's heart did not fluctuate, although the president's apology was quite surprising, but this could not alleviate the shock in her heart. After all, from today onwards, she went from one fire pit to another.
Besides, people just make an appointment, what kind of big deal is it? It's not a very close relationship.
Jing Jiaxin thought about it and said so.
"It's okay, you're busy, don't worry about me."
Huo Tingxiao glanced at her: "Are you jealous?" β
Jing Jiaren's eyelashes twitched, but there was still no fluctuation on her face: "President, what are you talking about, there is nothing." β
Huo Tingxiao suddenly smiled: "Yes, it's a little bit of growth." β
"I didn't, I'm not, don't talk nonsense!" Jing Jiaren replied indifferently.
"Didn't you say surprise me in the afternoon? What is it. Huo Tingxiao ignored her refusal and asked directly.
Jing Jiaren smiled again: "What a surprise, I don't know what you're talking about, I just went to the supermarket in the afternoon, by the way, I asked if you were free in the afternoon, I didn't wait until it was dark in the cold wind, don't get me wrong." β
Although it was a very flat tone, Huo Tingxiao could also hear the yin and yang in it, and he was a little distressed.
"I was called back by my mother, and she said that she had called you back, and I justβ" Huo Tingxiao explained with rare patience.
