Flash Marriage, Deep Love-Chapter 52 Kiss Here
Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Kiss Here
"The water is ready," the servant replied.
Upon hearing this, Ma Huilian smiled at Shen Jiajia and said, "Jiajia, let’s go in!"
Shen Jiajia nodded, and then the mother and daughter walked to the main house side by side.
Knowing that everyone hadn’t had breakfast yet because they were waiting for them, Mi Jing felt very guilty. At this moment, seeing Ma Huilian and Shen Jiajia walking in, Mi Jing said apologetically, "Aunt, Jiajia, I’m sorry! It’s all my fault for sleeping late."
"It’s no problem! It’s lively when the family eats breakfast together."
"That’s right! Sister-in-law, my brother rarely comes home, so being able to eat together is considered a rare opportunity for us. We’re very happy!"
The mother and daughter both smiled and didn’t mind, showing great understanding.
After the two sat down, the old lady started eating. Few people spoke, but when Ma Huilian saw the kiss mark on Mi Jing’s neck, her face changed slightly. She ate breakfast silently and soon subtly touched Shen Jiajia’s leg under the table.
Feeling the movement on her leg, Shen Jiajia didn’t show any confusion or surprise. She calmly turned her face and got a signal from Ma Huilian.
Seeing this, Shen Jiajia naturally lowered her eyes, took the milk from her right side, sipped it, and then looked at Shen Lingxing and said, "Brother, our school is arranging internships for next semester. I don’t want to go out of town; can I intern at the company?"
"You need to ask Grandma about company matters."
Shen Lingxing’s attitude towards Shen Jiajia was not as cold as with Ma Huilian, but it lacked the affection he showed to Shen Xing’er. His tone was calm, and he passed the question to the old lady sitting at the head of the table.
"Since the company has already been handed over to you two, you will make the decisions from now on. I won’t interfere." The old lady expressed her attitude leisurely and threw the question back to Shen Lingxing.
Mi Jing buried her head in her food, eating deliciously. Although she didn’t listen carefully, she heard some of the conversation while sitting together. But she didn’t like to get involved in other people’s affairs, so she didn’t care.
Unexpectedly, Shen Lingxing suddenly said, "Honey, what do you think?"
"What?"
Mi Jing pretended to be clueless, wanting to avoid the question.
But Shen Lingxing explained, "Jiajia wants to intern at the company. What do you think?"
This kind of question, why ask her?
Is her opinion really that important?
Mi Jing felt a bit uneasy and quietly said, "I don’t understand the company’s matters; you decide."
After speaking, Mi Jing glanced at Shen Jiajia, coincidentally meeting her pleading gaze, feeling even more uneasy. So she stiffened and said, "Since Jiajia has this idea, I think we should support her."
"Alright," Shen Lingxing agreed, nodding. Then he said to Shen Jiajia, "Your sister-in-law agrees, so of course I will follow her lead. But the premise is that you have to pass the company’s assessment and cannot enjoy special privileges."
"Okay, I will work hard to prepare. Thank you, Sister-in-law. Thank you, Brother." Shen Jiajia thanked them happily.
"Yes! Thank you for giving Jiajia this opportunity." Ma Huilian also thanked them, smiling with gratitude, but inwardly she was filled with jealousy and resentment.
Why did her daughter need Mi Jing’s approval to intern at the company? She had been married to Shen Zixian for years, never having such authority to speak, but Mi Jing had it as soon as she entered the house, becoming half the boss!
Mi Jing certainly didn’t see Ma Huilian’s true thoughts at that moment, baffled by their words, wondering how suddenly she had so much authority? She just casually said something, did it warrant such gratitude?
Not knowing what to say, Mi Jing just smiled.
"Zhou, bring the red envelope." The old lady liked Mi Jing more and more, thinking she was unpretentious and not overly smart, feeling she matched her grandson well. Her joy was evident on her face, looking at Mi Jing with a smile, almost writing "satisfaction."
Mrs. Zhou was quite clever and quick on her feet, promptly bringing the red envelope to the old lady.
Then, the old lady stood up, walked to Mi Jing, handed her the red envelope, and said, "Jingjing, Grandma really likes you from the bottom of her heart. Remember to come back and visit me sometimes."
"Hmm, I will come back with Lingxing often." Looking at the old lady, Mi Jing couldn’t help but think of her deceased grandmother. She felt her grandmother’s love again, feeling joyful and warm, obediently accepting the red envelope.
"Good girl, no need to come back often, once or twice a month will make me happy."
The old lady gently touched Mi Jing’s hair affectionately, a gesture even Shen Jiajia hadn’t enjoyed, so the mother and daughter, watching the scene, felt particularly envious!
After breakfast, since Shen Lingxing had to return to the hospital for work, he drove Mi Jing away from the ancestral home toward the city.
In the car, Mi Jing thought about the old lady and Mrs. Zhou’s slightly strange looks at her, feeling puzzled, wondering if something was wrong with her today?
Thinking this, Mi Jing took out her compact mirror, checked her face and hair, finding nothing unusual, becoming more puzzled. She glanced at Shen Lingxing, unexpectedly seeing a mysterious smile on his face.
"Are you laughing at me?" Mi Jing asked uncertainly.
Shen Lingxing didn’t answer, just smiled. To Mi Jing, his smile was a confirmation, so she asked again, "What’s funny?"
"Suddenly thought you were quite cute." Shen Lingxing’s right hand gently stroked the steering wheel, his long fingers tapping rhythmically, looking very relaxed.
Cute?
This is a positive word, but sometimes cute can also mean foolish.
Mi Jing suspiciously looked at Shen Lingxing, increasingly feeling he was not praising but mocking her, pulling a face, saying, "Is making fun of me fun?"
"What are you imagining?" Shen Lingxing lightly tapped Mi Jing’s forehead, then his gaze dropped, glancing at the mark he deliberately left on her neck, saying, "Missed a spot."
With Shen Lingxing’s hint, Mi Jing wasn’t annoyed and asked eagerly, "Where?"
"Really want to know?"
The red light stopped the car, Shen Lingxing leaned closer to Mi Jing and pointed to his cheek, saying, "A kiss here."
Rogue!
Mi Jing glared at Shen Lingxing, inwardly cursing. But she was quite straightforward thinking they had kissed; kissing his cheek was simple, just closing her eyes and pressing her lips down, done!
