Liang Jingxiao was also surprised to see Bai Lu in the elevator. She tightened her grip on Xiang Longjin's arm and chuckled after a moment. "Bai Lu, what a coincidence. You're here at the hospital too?"
Bai Lu originally thought that if they didn't say anything, she would go down from this floor first and take the stairs.
But now that Liang Jingxiao had spoken, she couldn't just keep quiet. "Mm," she replied expressionlessly.
Xiang Longjin, who was standing to the side, looked at Bai Lu in a daze. Liang Jingxiao's originally decent expression instantly changed. She couldn't help but clench her fists and pull Xiang Longjin into the elevator. She glanced at the numbers Bai Lu had pressed and pursed her lips coldly. "What a coincidence. Longjin and I are going to the second floor too."
"Jingxiao, why are we going to the second floor?" Xiang Longjin glanced at Liang Jingxiao and asked with a frown.
He knew that Liang Jingxiao was doing this on purpose. In this situation, the space between the three of them was really too narrow. Even the air seemed to be stifling. Why did she have to be so aggressive towards Bai Lu?
"I accidentally twisted my ankle just now." Liang Jingxiao calmly glanced at the hospital map above the elevator. She saw that the second floor was for orthopedics. Her voice was low, but every word was like a sharp knife stabbing into Bai Lu's wound that had yet to heal. "Don't judge me by my small belly. My body is much clumsier than ordinary people's. I accidentally twisted my ankle just now. I didn't have time to tell you."
Xiang Longjin frowned. He already felt guilty towards Bai Lu. Now that he heard Liang Jingxiao say those things so unscrupulously, he found it hard to accept.
"Jingxiao, let's go back first. Be good, okay? I didn't see any injury on your leg just now … "
"Xiang Longjin, what do you mean? Are you saying that I lied to you? " Liang Jingxiao looked at her man's timid face as soon as he saw Bai Lu. It was obvious that he still had feelings for her. How could she let it go? Her voice became sharper. "I really sprained it. Can't I see a doctor? Or is it because of her appearance that you're like this? "
The rose-red nail polish on Bai Xi's fingertips was close to the tip of Bai Lu's nose. Her delicate and beautiful face no longer had the sisterly affection of the past. Instead, it was filled with intense jealousy and unwillingness.
Bai Lu took a deep breath and looked away. "Miss Liang, you don't have to treat me as your imaginary enemy. You should pay attention to your emotions when you're pregnant, lest you affect the fetus. "
As soon as he finished speaking, the elevator reached the second floor. Bai Lu walked out. Liang Jingxiao bit her lip and chased after him unwillingly. However, she didn't expect to see Liang Feifan walking over from the end of the long corridor.
"Brother?"
It was too late for Liang Jingxiao to shrink back this time. Liang Feifan, who was not far away, had clearly seen them.
Big Brother never came to the hospital. Why was he here now?
Liang Jingxiao's delicate eyebrows instantly furrowed. She couldn't help but look at Bai Lu. She already knew what was going on.
Previously, she had planned to let Xiang Longjin enter EC to learn from Big Brother. However, after the incident with Bai Lu and Big Brother's sudden business trip, she had no choice but to postpone it. In the end, she accidentally found out that Bai Lu was also on a business trip with Big Brother. Later, she investigated and confirmed that Big Brother had actually let Bai Lu be his secretary!
Liang Jingxiao bit her lip. She was very indignant.
What was so good about her? Big Brother had always been very picky when it came to work. There were so many employees in EC. Why would he choose her?
"Jingxiao?" Liang Feifan was a little surprised to see his sister in the hospital. "What are you doing in the hospital? Are you not feeling well? "
In the blink of an eye, he saw Xiang Longjin standing next to her. Liang Feifan's ears flashed with a drunken female voice that didn't quite match the situation.
Xiang Longjin …
So it was this man.
Of course, he remembered. That day in EC's office, the two of them had been exchanging flirtatious glances. After that, he had also heard them mention Jingxiao's name. At first, he had only been suspicious. Now, just by looking at the three men and women in front of him, he could already determine what he was thinking.
Liang Feifan unconsciously narrowed his eyes. Even he didn't realize that at this moment, his expression was a little gloomy. His gaze was fixed on Xiang Longjin's face. His deep eyes seemed calm, but for some reason, they gave people a feeling of oppression.
Liang Jingxiao also felt it. She quickly jumped out. Her slender figure slightly covered Xiang Longjin. Her smile was a little forced. "Big Brother, why are you in the hospital? Don't you always come to the hospital? Are you feeling unwell somewhere … "
"It's an old illness." Liang Feifan said these three words. Even if he knew that Liang Jingxiao was deliberately changing the topic, he didn't intend to let it go. "What about you guys? What are you doing in the hospital? "
Liang Jingxiao bit her lip. She knew that this matter couldn't be hidden anymore. Anyway, she didn't intend to hide it. Anyway, her stomach was going to get big one day.
"Big Brother, in fact, I haven't had time to tell you … I'm going to marry Longjin. I … I'm pregnant."
When Bai Lu, who had been standing by the side, heard this sentence, his hands subconsciously clenched by his sides.
Liang Feifan's face suddenly darkened. "What did you say?"
Family Liang's generation was Liang Feifan's. Although Family Liang was already in business, many of Family Liang's side relatives were officials in City A. Their grandfather alone had retired from the position of General.
Getting pregnant before marriage was a taboo in the Liang family. If his parents knew about it, they would definitely be furious!
Liang Feifan looked at Xiang Longjin coldly. "His?"
Liang Jingxiao thought that her big brother was going to blame Xiang Longjin. She was even more eager to protect him. "Big Brother, don't blame Longjin. We love each other. Besides, he doesn't intend to not take responsibility. We're getting married!"
Liang Feifan's anger was written all over his gloomy handsome face. However, because Bai Lu was present at the moment, he didn't lose his temper.
His good upbringing allowed him to maintain the most basic demeanor at the moment, but his tone was tense enough. "This is such a big matter. Father and Mother didn't say anything at all. Do you think you can get married just by telling me?"
"Big Brother …" Liang Jingxiao bit her lip and said with a sad tone, "I know it's wrong for me to act first and report later, but … it's already like this. Can't you help me? I know you dote on me the most, and Mother listens to you the most. "
Liang Feifan's sharp gaze went straight past Liang Jingxiao to Xiang Longjin, who was standing behind her. However, he saw that his gaze was fixed on Bai Lu. His gaze was obviously reluctant to part with her.
Liang Feifan unconsciously narrowed his eyes, and the fingers by his side also moved. Although he looked calm on the surface, there was an unknown flame that was slowly rising in his heart.
"Are you sure he wants to marry you?" He looked at Xiang Longjin and said indifferently, "Marriage is a major event in life. Jingxiao, I hope you've thought it through. If you're pregnant …"
"I'm sure! Big Brother, of course we're sure! " Liang Jingxiao loudly cut off Liang Feifan's words. She pushed Xiang Longjin hard, who had been silent all this time, and motioned for him to quickly express his position.
In Family Liang, Liang Feifan's status was extremely high, even though her father had the final say in many things in the family. However, if she and Xiang Longjin's marriage had her big brother's support, then there was an 80% to 90% chance that it would go through.
Xiang Longjin looked up in a daze. The two sharp gazes across from him were like knives, forcing his heart to tremble. Only then did he realize that he had been a little distracted. He coughed softly and said softly, "… I'm sorry. It was my mistake, but I'll take responsibility."
Liang Feifan sneered. "You're saying it as if my little sister forced you." He paused for a moment and his gaze swept past Bai Lu's pale face. He slowly asked, "Xiang Longjin, right? Now, in front of me, tell me again. Are you willing to marry my little sister, Liang Jingxiao? "
He deliberately emphasized the words "willingly".
Liang Jingxiao grabbed Xiang Longjin's arm and motioned for him to quickly nod his head and express his position.
Bai Lu instinctively took two steps back. In fact, she really wanted to turn around and leave right now. This was clearly Family Liang's domestic affairs, and she was really an eyesore standing there. She was just an outsider, and she didn't want to hear Xiang Longjin express his sincerity to Liang Jingxiao.
Although they were already in the past, Xiang Longjin's "willingness" was undoubtedly a knife that would stab her in the heart in front of her.
But why was it that when she clearly wanted to leave, it was as if her feet had grown nails, and she didn't even have the strength to move?
"Longjin, my brother is asking you something …"
Xiang Longjin didn't say anything for a long time, but his eyes kept drifting to Bai Lu. Liang Jingxiao was angry and anxious, so she stomped her feet and pushed him. "Did you hear me?"
Xiang Longjin felt as if he had been forced to go to Liangshan at that moment.
It was a Liangshan that was hard to ignore. His usually gentle eyes flashed with complex emotions that were difficult to discern.
He was annoyed and regretful, but he knew very well that at this point, he no longer had the right to make any other choice.
"I am willing to marry Jingxiao." He looked away from Bai Lu's face with difficulty and secretly took a deep breath. "I hope that Mr. Liang can give us your blessings."
Bai Lu felt that she really couldn't listen to him anymore. Her wrist, which was hanging by her side, moved instinctively. She clearly didn't feel anything, but she blurted out, "Mr. Liang, I'll go check my wrist first."
As soon as she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Liang Feifan to say anything and almost ran away.
She knew that the reason why she found it hard to accept was mostly because of her pride. However, she had never been a saint. She would never repay evil with kindness. She would never smile and wish them a happy marriage.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Regardless of whether they got married or had children, in the future, Xiang Longjin and Liang Jingxiao would have nothing to do with her, Bai Lu.
Liang Feifan turned sideways slightly and watched the figure leave in a hurry. His eyes darkened slightly.
On the other hand, Liang Jingxiao felt as if she had won a great victory.
Bai Lu, did you hear that?
