Sweet Beauty

Chapter 61 - If You Don't Like Him, At Least You Have Tried



Seeing Luo Yanyun's reaction, Han Yuanjun knew that the blue gemstone necklace was not bought by Wei Guowei for Liang Zixuan's mother.

It was a gemstone, the size of a pigeon's egg. There weren't many of them in the world, and one was worth tens of millions.

Han Yuanjun had been searching for it for so many years, but he still hadn't found many people with a gemstone necklace of this size.

If Wei Guowei didn't buy it, then where did Liang Zixuan's mother get it from?

Furthermore, looking at Liang Zixuan's and Luo Yanyun's reactions, they didn't know the true value of this gemstone. Otherwise, Liang Zixuan wouldn't be wearing it around her neck every day.

Although it was hidden under her clothes, it was still very dangerous.

Han Yuanjun nodded. "Does grandmother know where that necklace came from?"

Luo Yanyun then reacted. She lowered her head and drank some water guiltily, pretending to think seriously. "I'm old and can't remember a lot of things. I forgot where that thing came from."

Han Yuanjun immediately noticed it. He knew Luo Yanyun was lying to him, but he didn't ask anymore. Otherwise, if Luo Yanyun thought that he chased Liang Zixuan because of that necklace, then everything he did would be for naught.

After confirming the relationship between him and Liang Zixuan, he would then personally ask her about the necklace.

Whether it was the one he was looking for or not, he couldn't rush it.

He wanted Liang Zixuan. 

The last time he came to the house, Liang Zixuan cooked him noodles. This time, she cooked three dishes and a soup, and Han Yuanjun actually had a good appetite.

Liang Zixuan saw that he was about to finish the soup on his own, so she stopped him. "Young Master Han, you ate so much. Aren't you afraid of getting indigestion?"

Han Yuanjun pushed her hand away and smiled gently. "It's been a long time since I've had such a homecooked dish, so my appetite is good."

Liang Zixuan's heart tightened when she heard this. She had ordered take-out for him at noon and at night. Although it was made by a 5-star chef, it had no taste of home.

What exactly happened to Han Yuanjun?

From time to time, these seemingly ordinary words would cause her heart to ache.

Even Luo Yanyun looked at him sympathetically. "Xiao Han, since we are living so close, if you don't mind, come over for dinner next night."

The corner of Liang Zixuan's eyes twitched. "Grandmother, Young Master Han, he -"

"If you don't mind, how could I? I am glad that I can eat here every night."

Han Yuanjun glanced at Luo Yanyun gratefully. Luo Yanyun immediately laughed out loud in joy. "Okay, okay, then it's a deal. From now on, you will come to my house every night to eat. I'll buy some dishes for you during the day too."

Liang Zixuan was speechless. "Grandmother, he -"

Han Yuanjun put down his bowl. "I'm full now, so I won't disturb your rest. I'll be going back first."

Luo Yanyun quickly stood up to send him off. "Alright, grandmother will see you out."

Liang Zixuan: "..."

They were ignoring her.

The two of them actually ignored her!

She didn't even finish her sentence before they made up their own minds!

Did they even put her in their eyes?

Luo Yanyun saw Han Yuanjun out. When she came back, she saw Liang Zixuan sulking, so she sat opposite her.

"Xuan, grandmother wants to talk to you."

Coincidentally, Liang Zixuan also wanted to talk to her.

"Can't you even notice it? Xiao Han has been helping us these past few days. Don't tell me you don't know he's courting you?"

"I know." Facing Luo Yanyun, Liang Zixuan could only sigh dejectedly.

"Grandmother, I don't want to have a boyfriend right now. I've been through a lot of things. As you know, there's Wei Guowei in front and Hou Yingyi in the back. Han Yuanjun is too good, really too good. His status is noble, and his manners are elegant. I don't think a woman like me is suitable for him."

Hearing that, Luo Yanyun got angry. "What's wrong with you? You're pretty good too. In grandma's eyes, you're the best. There's no man in the world that you're not worthy of! It was whether you like him or not."

She raised her eyebrow. "Just tell grandmother the truth. Who is Xiao Han to you? Do you like him?"

Speaking of liking, Liang Zixuan really did like Han Yuanjun a little.

She wasn't a wooden person. When she was in trouble, he would always be by her side to help her. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't touched and her heart wasn't made of stone.

However, she was always on guard against him. She was afraid that after she fell in love with him, Han Yuanjun would suddenly give up on her. If that happened, it would be the end of the world for her.

If that were the case, she probably wouldn't even have the courage to live on.

After all, two previous examples were right in front of her. If she still foolishly believed in love and was then hurt by it, then she was an extremely foolish person.

Liang Zixuan lowered her head and took a deep breath. "Grandmother, I haven't thought about some things yet. Give me some time to think it over."

"Think? What is there to think?! You just need to stay sharp and look around you clearly." Luo Yanyun grudgingly advised her. "There are not many people like Wei Guowei and Hou Yingyi in this world. You are just unlucky and have met them. Xiao Han is a really good man, so you don't have to reject him. Try to get to know him better first. If you don't like him, at least you have tried."

Why did her grandmother talk about love like she was talking about buying vegetables in a market? Like it was an easy thing to do. 

Liang Zixuan didn't want to say anything more on this matter. She really needed time to think it through.

She stood up to wash the plates. "I'll think about it."

Luo Yanyun looked at her and sighed. She felt that she had to help Han Yuanjun with this matter again.

• • • •

Last week, since Luo Yanyun was hospitalized, Liang Zixuan went to the hospital to accompany her every day after work.

Now that Luo Yanyun had been discharged, the 15-day deadline was almost up. Liang Zixuan could only work overtime at the company.

When it was time to get off work, Zeng Zhelan saw that Liang Zixuan had no intention of leaving, so she stayed to work overtime with her.

Han Yuanjun waited in the parking lot for half an hour. When he saw Liang Zixuan still didn't show up, he took out his cell phone and called her.

When Liang Zixuan noticed the caller's name, she immediately remembered that she had forgotten to tell him about it. "President Han, I'm staying to work overtime today. You can go back first."

Han Yuanjun just said yesterday that he would come to her house every night for dinner; how come she was going to work overtime today?

This girl wasn't hiding from him, right?

Zeng Zhelan heard Liang Zixuan's words and asked, "Are we going to stay until late today?"

Liang Zixuan nodded. "Yes, we don't have much time left. We need to get all of these songs out in the next few days. I think we'll need to work overtime over the next few days too."

Zeng Zhelan took out her phone and asked, "What do you want to eat? Let's order takeout."

Liang Zixuan didn't really want to eat anything, so she just told Zeng Zhelan to order whatever she (Zeng Zhelan) wanted.

Zeng Zhelan browsed through the app. "Do you like pasta or fried rice?"

Just as she finished speaking, she saw a man's figure walking over from outside the glass door.. When she saw the man's face, she screamed in fear and almost smashed her phone into her face.
