Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 533 - 493: Nowhere to Run

Soon, he might accept her, be with her, and marry her.

By then, she and he would become the true golden couple in the eyes of the world, and their union would also become a beautiful story.

But now, Jian Liangtong has appeared again.

His reaction to seeing her makes her feel afraid, uneasy.

She’s worried that even if Jian Liangtong has "betrayed" him, he still can’t let her go and still wants to be with her.

If they end up together in the end, what does that make her? A joke?

She absolutely cannot tolerate her efforts becoming a laughable joke in the end!

Seeing her daughter stumble all the way back scared He Xinyun and Jian Ningfeng.

Hao Hao sat in his seat for a few seconds, then hurriedly got up, opened Jian Liangtong’s bag on the seat, unzipped it, took out a bottle of medicine, opened the lid, poured out two white pills, and handed them to Jian Liangtong, "Mom, take your medicine."

Jian Liangtong covered her chest with one hand, trembling fingers took the pills from Hao Hao’s hand and swallowed them dry.

He Xinyun and Jian Ningfeng watched as Jian Liangtong sat down shakily, unable to catch her breath for a long time, with hearts aching so much they felt twisted.

He Xinyun wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, also trembled as she poured a glass of warm water for Jian Liangtong, handed it to her, and said hoarsely, "Drink some water."

Jian Liangtong was still twitching as if cramping, weakly lifted her eyelids to look at He Xinyun, forcing a tug at the corner of her lips, "Mom, no need, I’ve already swallowed it."

"..." He Xinyun covered her mouth and turned her head to the side.

Her daughter, whom she had painstakingly raised, was the healthiest compared to anyone since she was young, and if she had a cold, it was the hardest to get her to take medicine.

She always complained about the bitterness and refused to take it at first.

Later, when she was cornered, she let her dad forcefully hold her down to pour it into her mouth, and for several days after, she always pointed at her mouth saying it was bitter, demanding her to buy candy to sweeten it.

As she grew older, when she was unwell, they bought her medicine, and she would say she’d take it later, but would secretly throw it into the trash when they weren’t looking, and no matter how uncomfortable she was, she wouldn’t take medicine.

But now...

Jian Ningfeng’s eyes were red, his lips tight, silently took the glass from He Xinyun’s hand and placed it on the table.

Jian Liangtong’s eyes were moist, looking apologetically at the distressed He Xinyun, moved her lips, but no words of comfort could come out.

After such an episode.

Even in the face of delicious food, He Xinyun and Jian Ningfeng had no appetite at all.

After Jian Liangtong returned from the restroom, her expression was tense, seemingly burdened with heavy thoughts.

The adults didn’t speak or eat, and the atmosphere was heavy.

Hao Hao, sensitive from a young age, ate very little, and in such an atmosphere, he ate even less.

So the meal ended in just over ten minutes.

They packed the barely touched food, paid the bill, and left Yu Xiangju, getting into the car.

Jian Ningfeng noticed that Jian Liangtong seemed noticeably more relaxed.

Furrowing his brow, Jian Ningfeng couldn’t help but glance at Yu Xiangju, a thoughtful look crossing his eyes, as he drove away from Yu Xiangju.

As soon as they got home, Jian Liangtong locked herself in her room.

He Xinyun and Jian Ningfeng stood at the door, worriedly looking at Jian Liangtong’s room door.

At ten at night, Jian Liangtong still hadn’t come out of her room.

He Xinyun, holding Hao Hao, sat on the couch, with red-rimmed eyes filled with worry, glancing repeatedly at Jian Liangtong’s room.

"Hao Hao, are you sleepy?" Jian Ningfeng asked softly, looking at the quietly resting Hao Hao in He Xinyun’s arms.

Hao Hao quickly glanced in the direction of Jian Liangtong’s room and lightly shook his head at Jian Ningfeng.

He Xinyun looked down at Hao Hao, tenderly saying, "If you’re sleepy, Hao Hao, just lean on grandma and sleep. Grandma will carry you to bed when you’re asleep."

"Grandma, I’m not sleepy." Hao Hao lifted his small head to look at He Xinyun, softly saying.

He Xinyun lovingly patted Hao Hao’s little head, "Hao Hao, are you hungry?"

Hao Hao shook his head, "Not hungry."

He Xinyun thus hugged Hao Hao tighter, lowering her head to gently kiss the top of his hair.

Nearly another hour passed.

Jian Ningfeng’s brows knitted tighter, with a growing intensity of anxiety in his eyes.

He glanced at He Xinyun, who was staring dazedly at Jian Liangtong’s room, pursed his lips, placed his hands on his thighs, and slowly stood up, saying, "I’ll go check."

"..." He Xinyun’s gaze flickered as she looked at the standing Jian Ningfeng, with a bit of hesitation and worry in her eyes.

Jian Ningfeng paused again before heading towards Jian Liangtong’s room.

Standing at the door of Jian Liangtong’s room, Jian Ningfeng glanced again at He Xinyun and Jian Chenghao, then raised his hand to knock on the door.

To his surprise.

Soon after he knocked, Jian Liangtong opened the door from inside.

Seeing Jian Liangtong appear before him, Jian Ningfeng was a bit stunned.

While He Xinyun immediately stood up from the couch holding Hao Hao.

Jian Liangtong lightly bit her lip, glanced at He Xinyun and Jian Chenghao in the living room, then looked at Jian Ningfeng and said, "I’m hungry."

"..." Jian Ningfeng still didn’t react.

"I’ll heat it up right away." He Xinyun, stunned for a moment, hurriedly put Hao Hao down, grabbed the packed food yet to be placed in the fridge, and quickly walked to the kitchen. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Jian Liangtong watched He Xinyun’s urgency, fearing that if she delayed, she wouldn’t eat, her heart seemed to be torn hard by someone, very painful.

"Tongtong is hungry, hungry, Daddy will help your mom heat up the food, it’ll be ready soon, just a moment longer." Jian Ningfeng finally reacted, mumbling to himself while quickly turning to the kitchen.

Jian Liangtong tightly clenched her fingers, her heart with a big hole!

That big hole was filled densely with guilt and remorse.

What kind of daughter is she!

At the dinner table, Xinyun was holding Hao Hao and sat with Jian Ningfeng on one side, while Jian Liangtong sat on the other.

Xinyun, Jian Ningfeng, and Hao Hao all had the same expression, tightly staring at Jian Liangtong.

Jian Liangtong looked at them, curled her lips, and said, "Don’t all look at me, let’s eat together."

"I’m not hungry," Xinyun said.

"I’m not hungry either," Jian Ningfeng replied.

Hao Hao looked spiritedly at Jian Liangtong, "Mom, you eat."

Jian Liangtong pursed her lips, served rice to all three of them, and said, "How can you not be hungry? You barely had any dinner. Let’s eat together."

Xinyun and Jian Ningfeng exchanged a glance.

Jian Ningfeng seemed to let out a sigh, looking at Jian Liangtong, and said, "Alright."

Jian Liangtong smiled, picked up a piece of braised fish, and gave it to Jian Ningfeng, "Here."

Jian Ningfeng looked at the fish in his bowl, reciprocated, and picked spicy chicken for Jian Liangtong, and then served the favorites to Xinyun and Hao Hao.

Jian Liangtong then happily nibbled on the spicy chicken, her eyes shining as she said to Jian Ningfeng and Xinyun, "It’s delicious!"

Xinyun, seeing her satisfied look, also picked up her chopsticks, served her another piece of spicy chicken, and said, "If it’s good, eat more."

"Yeah, Dad and Mom, and you too, Hao Hao, you all eat," Jian Liangtong said, her mouth full, mumbling.

Xinyun finally showed a bit of a smile and placed Hao Hao at the seat beside her, "Hao Hao, eat more."

"Grandma, you eat too," Hao Hao stretched out his little hand to pick some food for Xinyun.

Xinyun smiled, "Yes, Grandma will eat."

"Sweetheart, you’re biased. You’re serving food to Grandma, but what about your mother?"

"..." Hao Hao helplessly glanced at Jian Liangtong, straightened his small body, and struggled to serve her some food.

Jian Liangtong, like a child with candy, began eating joyfully.

Jian Ningfeng and Xinyun looked at Jian Liangtong, their eyes filled with deep affection.

The meal was finished amid laughter and cheer.

After dinner, Hao Hao, already very sleepy, fell asleep in Jian Ningfeng’s arms.

Xinyun was washing the dishes in the kitchen.

Jian Liangtong came out after taking a bath in her room, looked at Jian Ningfeng, and said, "Dad, give Hao Hao to me; I’ll hold him and let him sleep inside."

"Let me take him," Jian Ningfeng said, carefully holding Hao Hao and heading toward Jian Liangtong’s room.

Watching Jian Ningfeng enter the room,

Jian Liangtong turned her gaze toward Xinyun in the kitchen.

Perhaps she sensed the gaze behind her.

Xinyun paused slightly in her dishwashing, turned slightly, and looked over at Jian Liangtong.

Jian Liangtong moved her brows slightly, pressed her lips together, and walked over to her.

Xinyun’s eyes flickered, she turned back and continued washing dishes.

"Mom, let me help you."

Jian Liangtong came to Xinyun’s side, picked up a dish she had already washed to rinse it.

But Xinyun immediately took the dish from her hand, "No need for you to do this, go to bed now."

Jian Liangtong, helpless, said, "Mom, did you know you’ve spoiled your daughter so much that she can’t take care of herself?"

"If she can’t take care of herself, then so be it; Mom will take care of you," Xinyun said.

Jian Liangtong smiled, but her eyes turned slightly moist.

Seemingly by accident, she pressed her fingertips against the corner of her eyes, saying, "But when you get old, I’ll have to take care of you. I can’t be completely incapable, right?"

"When I’m old, you won’t have to take care of me. Your dad and I have discussed it; when we’re too old to move, we’ll just find a nice nursing home and won’t burden you," Xinyun replied.

Jian Liangtong suddenly paused.

She didn’t expect they had already planned this!

For quite a while, she didn’t hear Jian Liangtong’s voice.

Xinyun paused and looked up questioningly at Jian Liangtong.

Only to find she saw Jian Liangtong with tears streaming down her face.

Xinyun’s hand shook, almost dropping the dish in her hand.

She awkwardly put down the dish, flustered, looking at her, her words stumbling, "What happened suddenly..."

Before Xinyun finished speaking, her neck was suddenly embraced tightly by Jian Liangtong.

Xinyun stiffened a bit, worriedly raising her hands to gently hug Jian Liangtong, "Silly child, crying for what reason."

"Mom, I’m not a good daughter," Jian Liangtong said, leaning her face against Xinyun’s shoulder, her voice hoarse.

"Who says so?" Xinyun frowned, "In Mom’s heart, you are the best daughter in the world."

"I’m sorry," Jian Liangtong choked.

"..." Xinyun felt a sharp pang in her heart, "It’s not your fault. It’s us parents who didn’t protect you well enough."

If only they had been more careful back then, paying more attention to her.

Perhaps the result wouldn’t have been this way.

Jian Liangtong shook her head, overwhelmed by a tide of sorrow that left her too choked up to speak.
