Chapter 867: Because Of His EQ, He Won’t Chase After Other Women

“What’re you saying?” Liang Jiaying was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and she almost jumped out of bed. “I don’t like him, big brother. Don’t get me wrong.”         

    

Liang Mingyu: “…”     

If that wasn’t “like,” then what was it?     

Liang Mingyu suddenly sighed, “Jiaying, when I’m healthy, what I’m going to do next will be very dangerous. I hope you can have someone to protect you.”     

“Big brother, I don’t need anyone to protect me!” Liang Jiaying’s face suddenly showed a serious and agitated expression, her fingers on the blanket were tightly clenched into fists. “Have you forgotten about our parents? Mom and dad also wanted someone to protect me and engaged me with him. At that time, I was not willing at all, but they insisted. They said he could protect me when you weren’t by my side. But…”     

Liang Jiaying recalled the past and suddenly fell into deep sadness. “Did he protect me? It would be good if he didn’t push me deeper into the abyss. Big brother, I don’t need anyone to protect me. I can protect myself!”     

“Jiaying!” Liang Mingyu guiltily interrupted Liang Jiaying’s thoughts. “That person doesn’t have to be Qin Shanyuan, it could be aunt or uncle. They’re our family now, the only family we can rely on. I hope you accept their protection, okay?”     

Although Liang Mingyu had brought Liang Zixuan and Liang Jiahao up on this topic, Liang Jiaying understood what he meant.     

He actually wanted the Qin Family to protect her.     

Because once Liang Zixuan and Liang Jiahao get involved in the Liang Family’s affairs, the Han Family will get involved too. At that time, the Qin Family was the safest choice for Liang Jiaying.     

“Big brother, what made you suddenly change your attitude towards Qin Shanyuan? Is it because of what he said in the afternoon?”     

“Yes and no.” Liang Mingyu stared at his freshly cleaned fingernails. “Until now, I’m not very satisfied with Qin Shanyuan and his family. But with his age, he was already mature and knew what he wanted. With him by your side, I can feel reassured.”     

“Besides, at his age, he did well in the business world. If you want to say that he depends on his father’s power to support the entire company, I don’t think so. I know for a fact that the words he said to me this afternoon were because he caught the weakness in my heart and struck me with one blow, which proves that he’s not really stupid. He just has a low EQ.”     

Speaking of this, Liang Mingyu suddenly laughed. “If a man with a low EQ likes you, it would be a happy thing for you. Because of his EQ, he won’t chase after other women. You don’t have to worry about him cheating on you in the near future.”     

Liang Jiaying: “…”     

Why did Qin Shanyuan’s description sound so terrible coming from Liang Mingyu’s mouth?     

Did this mean, except for her, other girls wouldn’t like him?     

Then why did she like him?     

Because of his low EQ?     

What the hell!     

“Big brother…” Liang Jiaying turned off the light and then lay down. “I don’t want to talk about this topic with you anymore. The more you talk about him, the more I’m afraid that I’ll hate him when I see him tomorrow.”     

Liang Mingyu smiled gently. He also laid down on the bed and forced himself to sleep slowly.     

Tonight, Liang Jiaying did not sleep well.     

She kept dreaming about Qin Shanyuan’s stupid appearance.     

When dawn came, Liang Jiaying woke up. She sat on the edge of her bed for a while and then got up to take a shower.     

Not long after that, the hired nurses arrived. Liang Jiaying knew that she didn’t have to take care of Liang Mingyu like before, so she went to work calmly.         

    

Arriving at the store, Liang Jiaying went to change her clothes and waited for Qin Shanyuan. But he didn’t come.     

She sighed. With Minnie’s head in her arms, she slowly walked out of the store.     

Originally, she thought Qin Shanyuan was just late, but until the evening and the time getting off work, he did not show up.     

Throughout the entire day, Liang Jiaying was in a low mood. Even back at the hospital, she couldn’t muster the courage to talk to Liang Mingyu. She seemed unhappy and unable to concentrate.     

When night fell, she thought that by sleeping, she could escape her swirling thoughts, but even after a long time, she couldn’t fall asleep.     

Why didn’t Qin Shanyuan come?     

Did something happen to him after he came home yesterday?     

After thinking about it all night, Liang Jiaying woke up the next day with two big bruises under her eyes.     

She now looked like a panda.     

Looking at herself in the mirror, she thought, “Is this how Qin Shanyuan felt when he couldn’t sleep that night because he was thinking about her?”     

Anyway, today was a new day.     

What if Qin Shanyuan came to work today?     

Liang Jiaying refreshed herself and went to work. When she arrived at the toy store, Qin Shanyuan was still not there.     

It’s another day and he didn’t come.     

Liang Jiaying felt like she’d lost her spirit. She left the store and went to the bus shelter, waiting for the bus. Liang Jiaying looked at the passing cars and suddenly remembered the day when Qin Shanyuan had kindly sent her back to the hospital.     

After not seeing him for two days, she suddenly realized that Qin Shanyuan was actually a very good man.     

Suddenly, a black car stopped in front of her. The door opened and two men dressed in black jumped out. Before Liang Jiaying could take a look at their appearances, a handkerchief was pressed in front of her nose and she was dragged into the car.     

“Mmmmh!”     

“Don’t move!” A rough voice of the man came from her side.     

Liang Jiaying opened her eyes wide and looked at the person driving in front of her with fear. This person’s clothes were familiar to her. Liang Mingyu had once worn the same clothes as him.     

“No…” Liang Jiaying was shocked and confused and struggled several times.     

The man immediately extended his hand to slap her, but he was stopped by another man at Liang Jiaying’s side.     

“She’s very thin and small. What if you beat her to death? Don’t worry, the drug will take effect soon.”     

Liang Jiaying heard the man’s words and her eyelids suddenly became heavy. She wanted to open her eyes and continued to struggle and cry for help, but it was as if she was enveloped in a thick fog and immediately fell into darkness.

Hospital, 8 p.m,     

Liang Mingyu looked at the clock and frowned deeply. “Why isn’t Jiaying back yet?”     

Both nurses were Chinese. One of them heard Liang Mingyu’s words and went to the door. After standing outside the door and looking around for a while, she came back and said, “I haven’t seen her.”     

Liang Mingyu pursed his lips. “Did she go to the nightclub again? Didn’t she say she didn’t have to work there anymore?”
