Liang Xun handed her the cell phone.

Jing Yao put the cell phone to her ear. Because she didn’t know what to call him, she simply greeted him with “h.e.l.lo”.

The person on the other end didn’t say anything immediately, but Jing Yao heard heavy breathing.

After about five seconds, a hoa.r.s.e voice sounded. “Yaoyao…”

Zhang Ji only called out once and could not say anything else.

The emotions in his voice were too obvious. Even though they didn’t meet, Jing Yao could feel the fluctuations in his emotions just from his voice.

Her eyes turned red for some reason. She opened her mouth and called out “Second Uncle” in a jerky and hoa.r.s.e voice.

Zhang Ji’s breathing stopped when he heard this form of address.

Jing Yao adjusted her emotions and said again, “Happy New Year, Second Uncle.”

Zhang Ji cleared his throat and said with a smile, “Happy New Year, Yaoyao. I’m sorry to only contact you now. About the past…”

“That’s all in the past.” Jing Yao interrupted him. “I have a new life now. 1 have the best lover and the warmest family. I’m living a good life now, Second Uncle, so there’s no need to mention the past. I didn’t blame you, so you don’t have to blame yourself.”

Zhang Ji felt a lump in his throat. Someone who had been in a high position for decades was supposed to be the best at controlling his emotions, but he almost cried at this moment.

The more his niece said that, the more upset he felt. When he thought of the culprit who caused all of this, he was even angrier.

“We’re coming to Bi City in a few days. Can we come and see you then?” Zhang Ji asked nervously.

There was a hint of a smile in Jing Yao’s voice. “Of course. You’re welcome to come to our house. Sigh, but 1 might not be at home then.”

Zhang Ji didn’t react for a moment. He asked curiously, “Why?”

Jing Yao said awkwardly, “I might be in the hospital at that time.”

After all, the baby was due on the eighth day of the new year. What Liang Xun meant was that they would stay at home for a day on the first and second day of the new year and then wait at the hospital.

Actually, there was no need to be so early, but Liang Xun was worried. He had been searching for relevant information and even went online to ask for experience. In the end, he came to a conclusion that the due date might not be accurate.

Many people gave birth to their children in advance.

When Liang Xun and Zhu Sui finalized the delivery date, Zhu Sui couldn’t help but scold, “Do you think you can stay in the hospital just because you own it? The wards are so limited now…”

“Cut the c.r.a.p. Tell me if there’s a ward,” Liang Xun interrupted him impatiently.

Zhu Sui: “…Yes, a super VIP ward. It’s specially prepared for suckers like you. It has two bedrooms and a living room. It’s full of facilities and is even warmer than your house. It costs 2,000 yuan a day. Can you stay there?”

Liang Xun answered, “Yes, I’m not short of money.”

Zhu Sui was so angry that he almost attacked.

Jing Yao was also there. She could understand Zhu Sui’s feelings. After all, she often felt that such a Liang Xun deserved a beating.

For example, when she first moved into Liang Xun’s house and Liang Xun coaxed her to eat porridge, he looked so arrogantly rich that she wanted to beat him up.

After Jing Yao finished speaking, Zhang Ji immediately thought that her due date was coming up.

“Then we’ll visit you at the hospital,” Zhang Ji said.

Jing Yao wanted to say that they could come after she was discharged from the hospital, but before she could speak, she heard a familiar voice from the other end of the phone. She could hear everything clearly.

“Who is Second Brother on the phone with? Why did you talk for so long?”

It was Zhang Li’s voice. Jing Yao didn’t mishear it. After all, she had heard it since she was young. When Zhang Li faced her in the past, her tone was either mocking or disdainful. Otherwise, she would question or scheme against her.

She did not want to hear such a voice anymore. She even wanted to hang up, but in the end, she endured it.

She said to Zhang Ji, “It’s late. Second Uncle, rest early.”

Zhang Ji knew what she meant and followed her words. “Alright, you should rest early too. Don’t stick to those formalities. Your health is the most important.”

Jing Yao nodded. “I know. Second Uncle too. Take care of yourself…”

Jing Yao paused and said, “Also, please send my regards to the family.”

Zhang Ji agreed and the two of them ended the call..
