Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 546 - 501: Yun and Your Cool Ending, Part 2: Please Her! 1
Jian Liangtong’s eyelids drooped slightly. After a few seconds, she said, "Ruan Chen, it’s not worth it."
Ruan Chen tightened his grip on Jian Liangtong’s wrist, his eyes deepening as he stared at her.
Jian Liangtong exhaled lightly, looked up at him with clear eyes, "You don’t need to give up your pride and principles for me, nor do you need to lower yourself to please me, because I don’t like you. Do you understand?"
Ruan Chen’s eyes seemed to suddenly crack open with pain briefly flashing through them, he said slowly, "I can’t help it."
He truly liked her.
Seeing her cry made him uncomfortable.
When she was unhappy, he couldn’t find joy either.
When she was angry, he couldn’t help but blame himself.
Seeing her.
He just wanted to do everything to please her!
Quietly gazing at his handsome and steady face, Jian Liangtong’s eyes showed no emotion, "It’s useless. I don’t like you, so I won’t feel sorry for you enduring everything. I don’t like you, so I won’t apologize for your sadness. I don’t like you, no matter how much you do, it won’t make me like you."
Jian Liangtong watched Ruan Chen furrow his brow tighter and tighter, her heart indifferent to the point that she found herself terrifying, "Really, don’t do this again next time, I’m afraid I’ll hate you!"
Ruan Chen suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He looked at Jian Liangtong, unable to control the paleness spreading across his face.
Feeling his grip on her wrist loosen.
Jian Liangtong unhesitantly drew back her hand, the motion of turning and leaving was utterly merciless!
Ruan Chen clenched his fists tightly.
Staring at Jian Liangtong’s back, his pupils welled up with a fiery heat.
Undoubtedly.
This was the first time Ruan Chen had been rejected so completely and without mercy by a woman.
For the following half month, Ruan Chen did not appear again.
Jian Liangtong wasn’t surprised by this.
For any proud man, nothing was more important than his self-esteem.
That day, she had almost said everything.
Not to mention a man of Ruan Chen’s quality, even an ordinary man couldn’t bear it.
Not only did Ruan Chen not reappear, but the other person also didn’t show up again.
Jian Liangtong occasionally thought about it, but only when she couldn’t restrain herself.
Most of the time, she was self-hypnotizing and suggesting, forbidding herself from thinking about him.
Before long, May passed.
Jin Jumo brought the two little ones to S City, especially to celebrate Hao Hao’s fourth birthday.
On Hao Hao’s birthday evening, Jin Jumo went to meet Ying Jingyao, while she took the three little ones to the cinema, where Jin Jumo would join them later.
At the cinema, Jian Liangtong had pre-ordered tickets online and went to the automatic ticket machine to collect them.
She bought popcorn and drinks, sitting in the waiting area for the movie to start.
Hao Hao was very happy, talking continuously to Xixi and Hanhan.
In front of Xixi and Hao Hao, Hanhan always played the role of the big brother, looking serious like a little adult.
Xixi had always been a little foodie, unable to walk away from food.
Holding a big bucket of popcorn like a precious treasure, her chubby hands constantly grabbing popcorn to stuff into her small mouth, leaving little time to respond to Hao Hao.
But Hao Hao was still very happy, pursing his little lips, smiling sweetly, contentedly watching Xixi eat.
Xixi also occasionally gave him a silly smile and would occasionally share some popcorn with Hao Hao out of kindness.
Even though Hao Hao didn’t like popcorn, every time Xixi gave him some, he happily accepted it.
Seeing this, Xixi was even happier, grinning at Hao Hao.
Hanhan sat properly on one side, looking at Hao Hao and Xixi with a disdainful expression as if he thought they were fools.
Jian Liangtong watched these three little darlings, her heart almost melting.
It was almost time to enter the movie hall.
Jian Liangtong stood up, holding Xixi and Hao Hao’s hands in her left and right, while Hanhan held Xixi’s small hand, a "family of four" grandly heading toward the ticket gate.
It seemed that tonight was a special day, as there were many people watching the movie.
So they needed to stand in line for the ticket checking.
Jian Liangtong was worried about the crowd bumping into the little ones, so she waited at the back of the line until almost everyone had entered.
Then, Jian Liangtong led the little ones to get their tickets checked.
As she freed her hand to hand over the tickets to the staff for checking,
Xixi suddenly called out anxiously.
Jian Liangtong quickly looked down.
She saw that the popcorn Xixi had just taken from Hanhan had fallen to the ground, leaving the surrounding floor covered with yellow popcorn.
Xixi was heartbroken, looking up at Jian Liangtong with big watery eyes.
Jian Liangtong smiled, reaching out to touch Xixi’s little face, "It’s okay, Aunt Jian will buy another bucket for Xixi."
"Thank you, Aunt Jian, Aunt Jian is the best." Xixi sweetly said, not forgetting to hug Jian Liangtong’s leg.
Jian Liangtong chuckled, turned to the ticket-checking staff, and said, "Sorry, it was an accident by the child, can you please have your cleaning staff clean it up?"
"No problem," the ticket-checking staff replied.
"Thank you," Jian Liangtong replied, "But can I ask one more favor?"
"What is it?"
"I need to go buy more popcorn, could you please watch the kids for a moment? I’ll be back quickly," Jian Liangtong said a little embarrassed.
"Sure," the ticket-checking staff said with a smile.
"Thank you." Jian Liangtong smiled at him, then looked down at Hanhan and Hao Hao, "You two wait here for Aunt Jian. Hao Hao and Hanhan, take care of your sister and don’t run around, can you do that?"
"Yes." Hao Hao and Hanhan nodded at the same time, looking into Jian Liangtong’s eyes with a serious expression, as if the task she gave them was particularly important!
Jian Liangtong found it amusing and heartwarming.
She patted their little heads before walking briskly toward the retail area.
Just halfway there, Jian Liangtong suddenly stopped, her upper body still slightly leaning forward due to her fast pace.
Not far away.
A tall, handsome man stood, accompanied by a delicate and charming woman, who clung to his arm like a little bird relying on him, her clean little face tilted up, looking at the man with shy tenderness.
Even though it was nighttime, the man wore sunglasses and a black baseball cap, with a profile that was sleek and three-dimensional.
The woman seemed to be saying something to him, and the man lowered his head slightly, responding one by one.
On his face, there was no extra expression. She couldn’t see whether gentleness or indifference was hidden within those dark eyes behind the sunglasses...
No.
How could it be indifference?
He allowed the woman to hold his arm, letting her rest her head lightly on his shoulder, and responded to every word she said with patience.
How could this be indifference?
Jian Liangtong suddenly wrapped her arms around herself, quickly turning away with an expression that couldn’t hide her panic.
She walked fast, as if something terrifying was chasing her.
"Aunt Jian..."
Xixi, sharp-eyed, was the first to spot Jian Liangtong.
Jian Liangtong came over but suddenly squatted down, reaching out to tightly embrace Xixi.
Xixi, "..."
Hanhan and Hao Hao opened their eyes wide in surprise, looking at Jian Liangtong in confusion.
Xixi inhaled, her small shoulders shrinking slightly, a bit startled by Jian Liangtong’s sudden action.
"Baby, hug Aunt Jian. Aunt Jian...is a bit cold." Jian Liangtong’s face was pale, her lips unnaturally white, trembling.
Even though Xixi was a bit startled, hearing these words, she obediently reached out and hugged Jian Liangtong tightly, her little face woodenly looking at her as she whispered, "Aunt Jian, is this okay?"
"Yes." Jian Liangtong closed her eyes, tears rolling down her cheeks.
In the end, they didn’t buy popcorn, and when Jian Liangtong took Xixi, Hanhan, and Hao Hao into the theater, the movie had already started for over twenty minutes.
After exiting the theater, Jian Liangtong received a call from Jin Jumo, who couldn’t make it to have dinner with them.
So Jian Liangtong took the three little ones to eat at Wanhui Building and then returned to the apartment.
When Jin Jumo came back, the little ones were already asleep.
Jian Liangtong placed wine and the packed food on the coffee table and talked a lot with Jin Jumo.
That night, Jian Liangtong drank heavily.
She told Jin Jumo that the man she loved was with another woman.
She thought she would be happy for him.
But she wasn’t.
She couldn’t be happy.
She really couldn’t be happy.
Later, she didn’t know how she fell asleep.
Maybe it was because she was drunk.
That night, Jian Liangtong slept very deeply, without crying.
The next day, Jian Liangtong saw off Jin Jumo, Xixi, and Hanhan.
Life returned to normal.
The artists under her management were all progressing and doing well.
Xu Jiaren was cast as the male lead in a web drama adapted from a popular high-interest same-sex novel.
Meanwhile, Wang Er was preparing his music single.
Zhang Le Yi joined Director Tan’s film crew and is currently in intense shooting.
Not only that, Jian Liangtong also received many invitations from directors and music producers seeking cooperation with her artists.
Jian Liangtong was initially doubtful.
After all, her artists were all newcomers, not yet officially debuted, how could such invitations come out of nowhere?
Moreover, the directors and music producers who sent invitations were not obscure figures, but rather well-known in the film and music industry.
Though puzzled, Jian Liangtong couldn’t possibly turn down the opportunities for cooperation knocking on her door, right?
They were big names inviting her, leaving her no room to refuse!
The news about the thriving development of Jian Liangtong’s artists spread quickly within GR Company.
Soon, many colleagues, both those unfamiliar to her and those she knew but wasn’t close with, came to connect with Jian Liangtong, subtly seeking the secret to her success.
Furthermore, some "rumors" about Jian Liangtong spread within the company.
Some said Jian Liangtong used her beauty to secure opportunities for her artists.
Others claimed she had a well-off background with connections.
All sorts of rumors about Jian Liangtong circulated widely within the company.
Jian Liangtong was not unaware of these rumors, but she truly did not pay them any mind.
However, her indifference did not mean others weren’t concerned.
That day, just as Jian Liangtong was about to visit the set of Zhang Le Yi’s shoot, she was stopped at the company entrance by Wendy and her assistant.
Jian Liangtong was a bit bewildered, looking at Wendy and her assistant, who seemed somewhat unfriendly, and pressed her lips together, "Sister Wendy."
