Jing Yao’s tone was too careful. It had been so long, but she still couldn’t completely treat herself as the mistress of this house.
Liang Xun was not angry or disappointed about this. He only felt his heart ache.
He still remembered a sentence he had seen before. “The lucky heal the rest of their lives with their childhood, and the unlucky heal their childhood with the rest of their lives.”
He didn’t want Jing Yao to be the latter. He would do his best to make Jing Yao happy and make her forget all her unhappiness in the past.
Liang Xun retracted his thoughts and said in his usual tone, “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. Just live-stream at home.”
Jing Yao looked at him in surprise.
Liang Xun had a headache. Jing Yao’s many unconscious actions always made his heart tremble. For example, she was looking at him with sparkling eyes.
Liang Xun took a deep breath and tried his best to control himself so that Jing Yao wouldn’t notice that he had lost his composure. However, he wasn’t someone who would suppress himself repeatedly.
His eyes were filled with love as he said in a bewitching voice, “You also know that I don’t like others to invade my private domain. I agree to let you live-stream at home. Shouldn’t you compensate me a little?”
Jing Yao looked at him warily. “What compensation do you want?”
Liang Xun leaned closer and tapped Jing Yao’s lips.
Jing Yao was speechless.
She knew it.
She had figured out Liang Xun’s personality. He would stick to her anytime and anywhere. He looked at her like a thirsty traveler looking at an oasis in the desert.
She did not hate Liang Xun’s closeness, but she felt a little uneasy. Everything was in a mess, completely different from her initial decision. She was always afraid that she would disappoint Liang Xun in the end.
“Then 1 don’t want to live-stream at home. Let the merchants find a place for themselves,” Jing Yao said gloomily.
Liang Xun’s expression froze. He retreated a little in disappointment. “Forget it. I won’t make things difficult for you if you’re unwilling. You can live-stream at home. I’ll get Auntie to prepare a room for you tomorrow.”
Jing Yao pursed her lips and her eyes turned red for some reason. She looked up and glared at Liang Xun. “Come here.”
She really couldn’t stand Liang Xun’s aggrieved and disappointed look, regardless of whether he was really pretending.
Liang Xun was surprised at first before hurriedly going back.
Jing Yao took a deep breath and turned to face Liang Xun. She reached behind Liang Xun’s neck and forced his head down. Her lips quickly pressed against his and she retreated in less than a second.
She quickly retracted her hand and lowered her head. Her face was so hot that she thought she had a fever.
Liang Xun’s eyes were deep and dark. He raised his hand uncontrollably and was about to touch Jing Yao’s cheek.
Jing Yao moved a little to the side and avoided Liang Xun’s hand. “Let’s continue what happened just now.”
Liang Xun paused for a moment. He retracted his hand with a restrained expression and his Adam’s apple bobbed.
“Alright,” Liang Xun replied after his expression returned to normal. His voice was still a little hoarse.
Jing Yao heaved a sigh of relief. “The live-stream is tomorrow. They said that they would come tomorrow afternoon. You should be at work by then and won’t meet them.”
Liang Xun raised his eyebrows and asked, “How much is the endorsement fee they gave you?”
Speaking of this, Jing Yao regained her initial excitement. She stretched out a finger and said with a smile, “10 million.”
Liang Xun didn’t say anything. He was thinking that he would give all the endorsements of the products under the Liang Corporation to Jing Yao as long as they were suitable in the future. She would be very happy if he gave her the highest standard of endorsement fees.
“This is the first time I’ve received an endorsement, and the endorsement fee is so high.” Jing Yao couldn’t hide the joy on her face at all. After saying that, she seemed to have thought of something and said, “By the way, they even gave me another sum of money for tomorrow’s live-stream. It’s a million yuan an hour. I’ve made a killing.”
Liang Xun pursed his lips and remained silent. A moment later, he stood up and walked to his desk.
Jing Yao looked at him in confusion.
Liang Xun opened a drawer, took out a wallet, and walked to Jing Yao with it.
Jing Yao looked up at him.
Liang Xun didn’t like this angle. He walked back to his seat and sat down. He opened his wallet, took out a card, and handed it to Jing Yao.
Jing Yao was confused.
“This is my wage slip. Take it,” Liang Xun said calmly.
Jing Yao was shocked and puzzled. “Why are you giving it to me?”
Liang Xun said seriously, “My father said that a good man should hand his salary card to his wife for safekeeping.”
Jing Yao said, “But our situation…”
Liang Xun interrupted her. “If you don’t take it, I might be punished when 1 go home. Our family has a strict upbringing.”
Jing Yao was speechless.
She felt that many things would be different after taking this card, but Jing Yao couldn’t tell what was different.
Liang Xun did not care how conflicted she was and stuffed the card into her hand..
