?Chapter 136: Chapter 136: Once Again (4)_1 Chapter 136: Chapter 136: Once Again (4)_1 Liangnian must have been very worried at that time… No wonder he would say, under those circumstances, she suddenly left… He might have thought that she didn’t want to marry him.
When Jing Haohao was still thinking about all this, a knock on the bathroom door suddenly resounded, accompanied by Liang Chen’s voice: “Haohao?”
Jing Haohao snapped back to reality, responded, and quickly got up, flushed the toilet to mask her actions with the sound of running water, swiftly silenced her phone, and deleted the private messages between herself and Shen Liangnian.
Jing Haohao put her phone in her pocket and stood in front of the ornate bathroom mirror, looking at her slightly red eyes, turned on the faucet, washed her face, and then opened the door.
Liang Chen was standing outside. As soon as she came out, his gaze fell on her, scrutinizing her appearance. Suddenly, his brows furrowed, and he asked, “Why are your eyes red? Have you been crying?”
“No.” Jing Haohao shook her head, and feigned composure, saying, “I just washed my face. The facial cleanser stung my eyes. They hurt a bit.”
As she said this, she even raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, making them even redder.
Liang Chen sighed in relief, genuinely believing her, and said, “Be careful next time.”
Jing Haohao obediently nodded.
Liang Chen turned his head, glanced at the table in the distance, and said, “Nanny Lin just brought up some sweet dessert. You should try some.”
“Uh-huh.” Jing Haohao softly agreed, then calmly walked to the sofa, sat down politely, and started eating with a spoon.
Liang Chen unhurriedly followed her and swayed over, sitting on a single sofa nearby. He held a file, glanced at it from time to time, and occasionally typed on the computer.
Jing Haohao glanced at Liang Chen and saw that he was calm, and even seemed relaxed as if he was in a good mood. Jing Haohao finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Liang Chen hadn’t noticed anything, and truly believed that her red eyes were from the facial cleanser.
After eating the dessert, Nanny Lin came to collect the bowl and brought a cup of coffee for Liang Chen.
Liang Chen worked while sipping his coffee.
Jing Haohao sat on the sofa, watching a variety show for a while. Halfway through, Liang Chen took a video call, and Jing Haohao, not wanting to disturb Liang Chen, turned off the television and climbed into bed.

Liang Chen discussed issues related to land plots and procurement, which Jing Haohao found uninteresting. So, she took out her phone, opened Weibo, and indeed, there was a private message from Shen Liangnian.
Jing Haohao cautiously looked at Liang Chen, and finding his attention fully on his work, she carefully replied to Shen Liangnian’s private message.
