Liang Xun went to the kitchen to cook the rice and pork ribs before returning to the living room.

Shen Yu was looking for topics to talk to Jing Yao about. Knowing that Jing Yao was also an actress, he instantly felt that they had a common topic.

They chatted very happily. Of course, it was his unilateral interest.

Jing Yao was so hungry that she didn’t want to say anything, but she still replied to him with a smile. She would not say anything if he didn’t ask her.

When Liang Xun came out and saw this scene, he glared at Shen Yu.

Then he walked to Jing Yao and touched her forehead naturally.

Shen Yu and Jing Yao were both stunned. Shen Yu didn’t expect his brother to be so gentle. Jing Yao didn’t expect him to suddenly reach out. She forgot what to do for a moment and only looked up at Liang Xun stiffly.

Only Liang Xun looked calm. He retracted his hand as if nothing had happened and heaved a sigh of relief. “You don’t have a fever. Why do you look listless?”

Only then did Jing Yao understand that he was only testing her temperature. Pregnant women had weak immune systems. Before Liang Xun left at noon, he even told her repeatedly not to catch a cold. She heaved a sigh of relief.

“I’m starving.” Jing Yao looked up at Liang Xun and said weakly. Then she lowered her head and continued to be in a daze.

Liang Xun was stunned and his heart trembled from her cuteness.

“I’m sorry, I came back too late. I’ll come back an hour early every day in the future.”

Jing Yao hurriedly shook her head. She wanted to say no, but before she could speak, Shen Yu had already shouted, “I can’t take it. You can’t bully me like this.”

Jing Yao did not understand what he was saying and looked at him in confusion.

Liang Xun understood and said with a fake smile, “If you can’t take it, leave quickly. Don’t be an eyesore here.”

Shen Yu said angrily, “Am I still your brother?”

Liang Xun said calmly, “Cousin.”

“…” Shen Yu.

“What are you doing here?” Liang Xun asked Shen Yu expressionlessly.

Shen Yu glanced at Jing Yao carefully and said, “You threw the cover of a marriage certificate on your WeChat Moments and didn’t say anything else. I’ll… here to get information.”

He wanted to say that he was here to see Sister-in-law, but when he met Liang Xun’s cold gaze, he was so frightened that he hurriedly changed his words.

Liang Xun knew what he wanted to say and said mercilessly, “So, you’ve already seen it. You can get lost now.”

Shen Yu looked at him sadly. “You don’t even let me eat. Must you be so heartless?”

Liang Xun said coldly, “Can’t you even afford food now?”

Shen Yu jumped up and almost hung onto Liang Xun. “Brother, my good brother. Can you take me in for a night? I don’t want to go back. Shen Zhao is here. She’s courting death at my place every day.”

Shen Zhao was Shen Yu’s younger sister. She was just a sophomore this year and was an energetic young lady. She was extremely boisterous.

Liang Xun pushed Shen Yu away with a dark expression. At the mention of Shen Zhao, he had a headache. He glanced at Jing Yao, who was sitting quietly on the sofa. Looking at her, he felt that the difference between people was really huge.

Shen Zhao was about the same age as Jing Yao, but Jing Yao was so well-behaved and cute. Shen Zhao was like a firecracker.

“What’s wrong with her now?” Liang Xun asked in a low voice.

Seeing that Liang Xun did not mention chasing him away, Shen Yu sat back on the sofa and said lazily, “The small celebrity she’s been supporting for several years seems to have crashed. She’s suspected to have relied on sleeping with others to get to where she is now and even became a trending topic. However, this girl doesn’t believe it. She feels that the media must be making groundless accusations. She doesn’t believe it, but she cares very much. She can’t wait to find out the truth herself.”

Jing Yao was originally amused by Shen Yu, who was extremely cold in front of the media but was like a clown in private. However, she suddenly frowned when she heard that.

That was because she had the same experience more than a month ago. However, because she was not popular, the trending searches were removed after a few hours.

Although it had an impact on her career, it did not cause much of a stir online.

Liang Xun had someone investigate Jing Yao, so he naturally knew that Jing Yao was on the trending searches because of this.

Liang Xun did not want Shen Yu to continue this topic and said to him, “Alright, if you can’t stay idle, go into the kitchen and help me wash the vegetables.”

An hour later, the three of them sat at the table and ate dinner together. Shen Yu’s elegance was gone, and he ate as if he had not eaten his fill in hundreds of years.

Liang Xun couldn’t be bothered to look at him. He focused on putting food into Jing Yao’s bowl and persuading her to eat her fill, but he couldn’t let her eat too much either.

The three of them were eating when Liang Xun’s cell phone rang. When Liang Xun saw that it was Zhu Sui, he picked it up and put it on speaker.

“Liang Xun, are you really asexual?” Zhu Sui’s gloating voice sounded.

The three people at the table looked up at the same time.
