Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 510 - 473: Jun, Your Ling Sheng: Him and Her

Chapter 510: Chapter 473: Jun, Your Ling Sheng: Him and Her

"..." That last sentence really packs a punch, doesn’t it?

Jian Liangtong gritted her teeth, "Thank you for being a gentleman, and also, I never claimed I was a Heavenly Immortal!"

Huo Chengjin pressed his lips together, but simply looked at Jian Liangtong without saying a word.

Jian Liangtong indeed has a taste for heavy flavors, but now that she knows she’s pregnant, she dares not eat anything too spicy and is being cautious with her diet.

So she didn’t eat much at the spicy hotpot place.

After leaving the hotpot restaurant, Huo Chengjin actually chose Yu Xiangju for Jian Liangtong to treat him.

Eating alone, he ordered a whole table of dishes!

Jian Liangtong thought this meal would probably consume several months’ worth of her food budget, her heart silently bleeding.

I don’t know if Huo Chengjin was deliberately stalling for time, but the meal took two hours.

After settling the bill at Yu Xiangju, Jian Liangtong’s face was turning pale with worry.

No other reason, this meal altogether cost her nearly twenty thousand yuan!

Not far from the doorway, Jian Liangtong stopped, silently gathering her courage, planning to tell Huo Chengjin that after this meal, it would be best if they never saw each other again!

Just as she hadn’t had the chance to speak, her phone in her bag started ringing.

She reached into her bag, just about to take out her phone, when suddenly she was hugged from behind.

Jian Liangtong, "..."

Jian Liangtong’s shoulders tensed, she turned back, stunned to see Huo Chengjin.

At this moment, Huo Chengjin’s expression was as serious as if he’d suddenly switched into a third personality.

Jian Liangtong’s pupils flickered slightly, "Is there a problem?"

Huo Chengjin didn’t speak, just held Jian Liangtong tighter.

Jian Liangtong could even hear the sound of his muscles tensing.

"Huo Chengjin, are you okay?" Jian Liangtong furrowed her brow, her mind a bit chaotic.

Huo Chengjin stared at her, his long eyes showing a depth of seriousness Jian Liangtong had never seen before.

Feeling unsettled, Jian Liangtong struggled, frowning, "What’s going on? Quit it with the mysterious act."

Huo Chengjin’s gaze seemed to flicker, suddenly releasing the hold on Jian Liangtong’s arms.

Jian Liangtong, suddenly free, was slightly startled, pursed her lips, and looked at Huo Chengjin with confusion.

Huo Chengjin habitually placed his hands in his pants pockets, his face tight, looking indifferent and unapproachable, with a cold tone, "Where to? I’ll take you."

Jian Liangtong stared at Huo Chengjin for a few seconds, increasingly feeling it would be better if she didn’t run into him again.

Slightly lowering her gaze, she said, "No need, I can go back myself."

Huo Chengjin looked at her without speaking.

Jian Liangtong lifted her gaze slightly to glance at him, her small face slightly drawn, "You saved me at the Karaoke room, I’m very grateful. Although just treating you to a meal and saying these things seems a bit heartless, I still hope we don’t meet again in the future. Even if we run into each other accidentally, please pretend not to know each other."

Huo Chengjin clenched his fist, "Do you dislike me that much?"

"I’m leaving now." Jian Liangtong didn’t answer his question, but said directly.

"..." Huo Chengjin’s face tightened, his lips pressed together until they turned white.

Jian Liangtong furrowed her brow, took one last look at Huo Chengjin, and turned to leave.

Huo Chengjin’s long eyes shone with a scarlet hue, staring at Jian Liangtong’s decisive back, he suddenly said, "You heartless woman!"

Jian Liangtong’s mouth twitched slightly, but she did not stop moving forward.

"Do you really not remember?" Huo Chengjin gritted his teeth, looking at Jian Liangtong’s back, his deep eyes immediately filled with dense melancholy and dejection.

Jian Liangtong heard him, her almond eyes flashed with surprise, and stopped walking, turned sideways and looked at Huo Chengjin in confusion.

The confusion and bewilderment on Jian Liangtong’s face, Huo Chengjin saw clearly.

Huo Chengjin, feeling like his heart was being crushed, breathed heavily. His sad and cold eyes made Jian Liangtong’s heart sink a little lower.

Suddenly.

Huo Chengjin strode towards Jian Liangtong.

Jian Liangtong’s eyes trembled intensely, yet in this moment, she didn’t know why, but she didn’t flinch or feel afraid.

Huo Chengjin reached her, his tall figure slightly bowed, his sharp, intense eyes carrying a certain stubborn madness locking onto Jian Liangtong, "You only remember Huo Shaojun, don’t you? You only have him in your eyes, don’t you? In the past and now still. Jian Liangtong, besides my brother, does anyone else hold no presence in your heart? Do you know... I’ve been waiting for you to recognize me all this time?"

His somewhat intense emotions finally made Jian Liangtong defenselessly take a step back.

However, her backward movement seemed to completely provoke Huo Chengjin.

Her arm was suddenly grabbed, and Jian Liangtong was pulled right in front of him.

Startled, Jian Liangtong’s almond eyes trembled with fear, staring at Huo Chengjin whose face was flushed with intensity.

Huo Chengjin’s chest heaved fiercely, the grip on Jian Liangtong’s arm continuously intensifying.

"It hurts." Jian Liangtong couldn’t bear it, softly exclaimed, her small face turning pale.

Huo Chengjin’s scorching eyes flickered momentarily, suddenly releasing Jian Liangtong’s arm, glaring at her with such intensity it seemed he wanted to devour her whole.

Jian Liangtong bit her trembling lower lip, rubbing her wrist, furrowing her brow, her eyes hidden with a trace of fear looking at Huo Chengjin.

She thought if Huo Chengjin lived in ancient times, he would certainly be a capricious, ruthless tyrant, making people fearful.

Huo Chengjin’s sinister eyes suddenly flashed with a touch of pain, making it impossible for anyone to grasp his shift in emotion at that moment.

Sitting in the taxi to the filming set, Jian Liangtong kept thinking about what Huo Chengjin said to her today.

He talked about the past, about waiting for her to recognize him...

With those words, Jian Liangtong couldn’t help but wonder if the two of them had met before?

And judging by Huo Chengjin’s appearance, the two of them must have more of a history than just meeting once!

But what puzzles Jian Liangtong is.

In her memory, she doesn’t even know a man named "Huo Chengjin"!

Jian Liangtong rubbed her forehead, her almond eyes filled with deep confusion.

Could it be, Huo Chengjin has mistaken her for someone else?

Thinking it over, Jian Liangtong feels this is the most plausible possibility.

So, Huo Chengjin must have mistaken her, and then got mad, thinking she’s the person he knows, but she didn’t recognize him right away, so with his twisted personality, every time they meet he just targets her, picking on her on purpose!

In the end, Jian Liangtong almost convinced herself of her own theory.

"Miss." The driver in the front suddenly spoke.

Jian Liangtong was startled and looked at the driver in the front seat.

The driver stared at Jian Liangtong with a strange look in the rearview mirror, "Phone." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Phone?

Jian Liangtong’s eyes widened, staring blankly at the driver for a moment, before belatedly realizing. She looked down and took out the phone from her bag, unsure how long it had been ringing.

She glanced at the phone screen and saw it was a certain someone.

Jian Liangtong’s lips curved up, having no mind for anything else.

She answered the call, speaking gently, "Hey little brother, are you done with work?"

"Mm. Are you home?" Huo Shaojun’s voice was as usual.

"...No, I’m currently in the car going to the set." Jian Liangtong felt a bit guilty thinking about her lie yesterday about going home today.

"How are Uncle and Auntie?" Huo Shaojun asked.

"...They’re good." Jian Liangtong said in a low voice.

"I thought so too."

Jian Liangtong, "..." a bit confused.

"Tongtong, it’s me, Dad."

A warm male voice suddenly replaced Huo Shaojun’s deep tone in her ear.

Jian Liangtong, "..." utterly embarrassed.

So, a certain someone is currently at her house, and with her mother and father!

Is her lie exposed now?

Jian Liangtong bit her lower lip, on the verge of tears, "Dad."

"You child, what are you doing? You, you, you, what should I say about you? If you’re going to lie, shouldn’t you keep us in the loop?"

Jian Liangtong felt innocent.

How was she to know that someone would suddenly drop by her house, especially when he clearly had a lot of scenes to shoot today?

About twenty minutes later, Jian Liangtong returned home.

As soon as she entered the living room and didn’t see a certain someone, Jian Liangtong looked at Jian Ningfeng in surprise, "Dad, where is he?"

Jian Ningfeng pointed at her, "He’s in your room, admit your mistake, be humble, understand?"

Hearing Jian Ningfeng’s words, He Xinyun gave him a glare, "What mistake, just explain to Shao Yun what you were doing. Teaching your daughter like this, how will she have any standing when she marries into someone else’s family?"

Jian Ningfeng paused, thought for a moment, and realized that was true, so he changed his words to Jian Liangtong, "Right, right, listen to your mom, talk to him properly."

Jian Liangtong glanced towards her room, her anxious expression dissipated, and she calmly said to He Xinyun, "Mom, I’m thirsty, could you get me a drink of water?"

He Xinyun poured her a cup of water, and after watching her drink it, asked, "What were you doing for half the day? Why did you lie to Shao Yun about coming home?"

Jian Liangtong’s eyes moved slightly, and after finishing the water, she placed the cup on the coffee table, addressing He Xinyun who looked at her in confusion, "I’m going in."

"Go ahead."

Before He Xinyun could say anything, Jian Ningfeng urged.

Jian Liangtong shouldered her bag and walked to her room.

Watching Jian Liangtong enter the room, He Xinyun immediately moved outside her door, pressing her ear against it.

Jian Ningfeng, "..."

When Jian Liangtong entered the room, Huo Shaojun was leaning against the headboard, one long leg stretched straight on the bed, one notable hand flipping through a notebook.

The pink curtains of the room were drawn, leaving just a slit open.

The bed lamp was on, with its warm-colored light cascading from above Huo Shaojun, appearing almost too perfect to be real.

Jian Liangtong casually walked over, placed her bag on the computer desk, pulled out the chair from underneath and sat down, staring at Huo Shaojun with clear eyes as if nothing happened.

Huo Shaojun seemed to furrow his brow slightly, slowly raising his gaze to silently stare at Jian Liangtong.

Jian Liangtong offered him a smile, acting carefree, "Why did you come over?"

Huo Shaojun pressed his lips together and said, "Wrapped up work early, so I came over since there was nothing else to do."

Jian Liangtong got up and walked towards him.

Huo Shaojun’s cold eyes deepened slightly, watching her.

Jian Liangtong walked up to him, smiling brightly as she looked at him for a few seconds, then she casually kicked off her shoes and straddled his lap.

Huo Shaojun wrapped his arms around her slender waist to prevent her from falling.

Jian Liangtong lay against him, her ear pressed against his left chest, listening to the steady, strong heartbeat echoing in her ear, feeling a sense of peace.
