Chapter 865: Still Thinking About What\'s In The Pot While She\'s Eating The Food In A Bowl
"Engaged?" Qin Shanyuan felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. It was as if something had torn his heart apart. It hurt so much that his eyes and eyebrows were furrowed together. "Is it a mutual engagement or an arranged engagement? Do they have feelings for each other?""I\'m not so sure about that. Even grandmother cannot be sure either, because our relationship with the Liang Family is quite delicate. Besides, we have become estranged from them over the past years. Shanyuan, think about it yourself."
After saying that, Liang Zixuan hung up the phone.
Qin Shanyuan stood alone by the window, looking at the scene outside. His heart was slowly sinking.
Liang Jiaying was not old, but she was no longer young either.
In many places, people her age already had children.
And now, in this society, men and women mature early. Many people fell in love when they were in college and even got married.
Qin Shanyuan was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn\'t notice when Liang Jiaying came out of the room.
She saw him standing alone by the window and poked him in the back with her finger. "Shanyuan?"
"Hmm?" Qin Shanyuan snapped out of his daze and looked down at her.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, with a unique childlike appearance. Not to mention her pair of big, watery eyes. No matter how you looked at her, Liang Jiaying didn\'t look like a girl who had experienced the baptism of love.
Liang Jiaying\'s cheeks reddened under Qin Shanyuan\'s intense gaze and she backed away. "Why are you looking at me like that? Let\'s go back, otherwise, we\'ll be too late."
Qin Shanyuan just looked away, walked down the stairs with Liang Jiaying, and left the clinic.
On the way to the city center, he was silent. His eyes looked toward the road ahead, but he didn\'t pay much attention to it. For a moment, he seemed to be wandering around.
Liang Jiaying silently clutched the seat belt and glanced at Qin Shanyuan from time to time from the corner of her eye, wondering why he suddenly fell silent, but she didn\'t dare to ask.
Throughout the day, Qin Shanyuan was lifeless. It was as if someone had sucked out all his energy.
Liang Jiaying felt a little guilty. When she got out of work, she finally couldn\'t help but pull Qin Shanyuan\'s hand. "Qin Shanyuan, I have forgiven you. I promise that I won\'t take it into my heart. When you return, eat well and have a good rest."
Qin Shanyuan lowered his eyelids, and his sleepiness increased.
Although he was tired in the morning, he still had enthusiasm and a longing for love. Now that the strength seemed to suddenly disappear, he looked even sadder.
Qin Shanyuan gently pushed Liang Jiaying\'s hand and said, "Don\'t worry, I\'ll rest well. You should go back early. Don\'t go to work at the nightclub. Han Szeto will send someone to take your brother to a private hospital tonight. Go back and freshen up."
Liang Jiaying nodded obediently, but she still felt strange, as if Qin Shanyuan wasn\'t as passionate about her as before.
She thought that maybe it was because of her and Liang Mingyu\'s attitude towards him at noon, that unknowingly made Qin Shanyuan\'s heart grow cold.
And maybe.... maybe it was a good thing.
After all, didn\'t Liang Mingyu not approve of them being together?
Qin Shanyuan\'s mother also did not like her.
So it was very good.
Liang Jiaying lowered her head slowly, feeling a little lost. "Then... then I will go back first. When you see my aunt, please pass my gratitude to her for helping my brother and me."
"I will." Qin Shanyuan nodded and looked at Liang Jiaying one last time before putting his hand in his coat and leaving.
The moment he left the building, he suddenly felt his heart empty, as if something had been ripped out of it. The empty feeling made him feel suffocated.

When Qin Yu arrived home, she quickly told Liang Zixuan and the others what had happened today.
When Old Madam Han heard this, her whole face became gloomy. "What\'s wrong with this Shen Xieren? It\'s been a while, and you and Jiahao are already married. What else does she want from you!"
"Maybe she\'s holding a grudge," said Liang Zixuan. "People like her, the more things she cannot get, the more she wants it. She would try her best to get it even if she hurts others."
Luo Yanyun didn\'t expect her grandson to be so popular among girls. She had heard about Shen Xieren from Liang Zixuan before. Now, after hearing Qin Yu\'s words, she shook her head helplessly. "There is something wrong with this person\'s head. I will not allow her to enter our house, not even as Jiahao\'s friend! Who knows what she is hiding in her heart."
"Grandmother, don\'t worry." Qin Yu patted her chest and laughed, "I\'m not a porcelain doll. I won\'t let her bully me, and Jiahao won\'t let her bully me again."
As they were talking, Qin Shanyuan entered the house with a frustrated look on his face.
Qin Yu looked at him. "Big brother, you\'re back!"
Qin Shanyuan raised his eyelids to look at Qin Yu and replied with a lifeless "En."
Something was wrong with Qin Shanyuan. Qin Yu wanted to chase after him and ask what had happened, but Liang Zixuan stopped her.
Qin Shanyuan ignored everyone in the living room and went upstairs, took off his clothes, and laid under the covers.
But no matter how tired he was, it was hard for him to fall asleep.
Liang Jiaying\'s smiling face kept running through his mind.
And no matter how much Qin Shanyuan thought about it, it hurt his heart so much.
\'Liang Jiaying, do you really have a fiancé?\'

Meanwhile, downstairs...
Qin Yu asked in confusion, "What\'s wrong with my brother? When I visited him this afternoon, I saw that his relationship with Liang Jiaying was quite good. It looks like their relationship has eased up. Then, why did it seem like he lost his soul when he came back? Could it be that they\'re fighting again? Do I need to talk to Liang Jiaying for him?"
Old Madam Han didn\'t know whether to laugh or cry. "Why do you want to interfere in your brother\'s relationship? I feel a little depressed for the child."
"Grandmother, you didn\'t see my brother yesterday. He was dying and didn\'t even have his dinner. I asked Jiahao to persuade him, and Jiahao told me he gave him some advice. Originally, I thought we could have a big reunion when big brother came back, but look at him. He was dejected. I don\'t know what happened to him..."
Liang Zixuan shook her head and sighed. "It\'s because I told him that Liang Jiaying is engaged to someone."
"What?" Qin Yu jumped up from the couch and said, "Liang Jiaying is engaged? Then my brother..."
Liang Zixuan said with a bitter smile, "I\'m afraid your brother is heartbroken."
"That\'s not right!" Qin Yu shook her head and sat back calmly. "Liang Jiaying knows that my brother is chasing her. If she has a fiancé, shouldn\'t she reject him? Since she didn\'t say anything, there are two possibilities."
"One, she has nothing to do with that man. The other is ... she has a deep intention in her heart. She\'s still thinking about what\'s in the pot while she\'s eating the food in a bowl. In other words, she is playing with my brother."
