It Won't Work?

The office suddenly quieted down. Yan Xia forced herself out of her thoughts and started to read the stack of documents on her desk.

From the company's development plan to the development status and development ideas of each artist under the company, it could be said that there were no details were left unread.

By the time she finished reading all the information, the sky outside was already a little dark. She looked at the time and realized that it was already past 6 o'clock.

She felt a slight pain in her stomach, and only then did she remember that she had not eaten today.

Yan Xia suddenly remembered what Mother Jiang had told her and immediately sent Jiang Huai a WeChat message.

[Mother said that we're going back for dinner. Where should I wait for you?]

[You can go back by yourself.]

Yan Xia imagined Jiang Huai's cold expression and perhaps even a little disdain. She rolled her eyes secretly.

'You only know how to be mean to me. It's not like I'm the one who's asking you to go home for dinner.'

After complaining in her heart, Yan Xia still summoned up her courage and took a taxi home.

She initially thought that Mother Jiang was worried about her health, so she specially invited the two of them over for a meal. However, she didn't expect Jiang Huai's sister, Jiang Ling, to be there as well.

Jiang Huai was the only child in the Jiang family. However, Mother Jiang liked girls very much. Hence, she adopted Jiang Ling and has pampered her since she was young.

As soon as she opened the door, Yan Xia heard the sound of laughter coming from inside.

"Mother, it must be Big Brother. I'll go and pick him up," a sweet female voice said.

Then, there was the sound of footsteps. Jiang Ling appeared at the entrance. Her smile immediately fell when she saw Yan Xia.

As if saying another word would be too much for her, she turned around and went back to the living room.

Yan Xia awkwardly followed her in, but Mother Jiang came to her rescue.

"Why did Xia Xia come back alone? Where's Jiang Huai?"

"He... something happened in the company." Yan Xia felt that the smile on her face was as unnatural as a statue.

However, something even more embarrassing happened.

The door opened just as she finished speaking.

It was Jiang Huai.

Mother Jiang's eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, but she didn't ask any more questions.

Instead, Jiang Ling seized the opportunity to embarrass Yan Xia. "I don't think it's because Big Brother is busy. He just doesn't want to see your face. That's why he didn't want to come back with you!"

Her anger had dropped to the freezing point.

Jiang Ling looked at Yan Xia playfully, her eyes full of determination.

Yan Xia wished she could just disappear.

The next person to speak was actually Jiang Huai. "Let's eat. We've had a long day."

We?

Jiang Ling's expression was very interesting, as if she had suddenly eaten dirt.

Yan Xia was also stunned. Was he trying to help her?

Yan Xia wanted to go back to the morning and see if the sun had risen from the west.

At the dinner table, Mother Jiang asked about the child again.

"Xia Xia, you have to eat more so that you can have a healthy baby. You're usually too skinny." Then, she added another piece of meat to Yan Xia.

Jiang Ling interrupted, "What's the use of a hen that can't lay eggs?"

However, before she could finish her sentence, she was frightened by Jiang Huai's gaze and stopped talking. She bit her chopsticks angrily.

Yan Xia looked at the pile of food on her plate and tried her best to eat, pretending she didn't see anything.

Liang Lan glanced at Jiang Ling and turned to Yan Xia. "Xia Xia, since you've already seen the doctor. You must take the medicine prescribed by the doctor on time."

"Oh?" A puzzled voice suddenly came from above.

Yan Xia raised her head slowly and met Jiang Huai's eyes.

What did he mean by that look? Was he blaming her for not being honest?

Yan Xia hesitated. If she told the truth, the most protective person in the Jiang family would not stand on her side anymore.

If Jiang Huai wanted to get a divorce, there wouldn't be any more resistance.

This was good too. Since Zhang Ying was back, she should give up her seat to her. After all, Jiang Huai loved Zhang Ying so much.

He had specially transferred her to Sunny Management Company and kept her away from him because he did not want Zhang Ying to misunderstand.

Yan Xia was a little disappointed at the thought, but she gathered her courage and prepared to speak.

Jiang Huai suddenly spoke up and stopped her from speaking.

"Mother, don't worry. I'll make sure she takes her medicine on time."

Yan Xia was stunned. He knew that she would not get pregnant again, so why did he cover for her?

Jiang Ling flipped the meat on her plate and said in a weird tone, "The pregnancy isn't just her own business. Big Brother has to be willing to help."
