Chapter 84: The Abandoned Jing Zeqian
Chapter 84
Lin Ruiqing laughed so hard she fell back onto the sofa. Beside her, Jing Beicheng hovered his hands protectively, afraid she might accidentally fall to the floor.
"Beicheng, look at your son. He can\'t even wash a tomato properly."
Jing Beicheng had also noticed the tomato in Jing Zeqian\'s hands on the screen and remarked disapprovingly, "That little rascal, he can\'t even wash a tomato right."
On screen, Jing Yi and Jing Zejun were also slowly walking back to the villa along the road.
"Beicheng, the scenery where Yiyi and the others are seems even nicer than Tianqiu Mountain."
Lin Ruiqing was intently watching the livestream. Hearing her words, Jing Beicheng leaned in closer. The screen showed a lush green landscape.
Tianqiu Mountain was famous for its terrain and unique lake scenery, different from the valley where the Jing family\'s Xiyuan Villa was located. But Jing Beicheng didn\'t want to dampen Lin Ruiqing\'s enthusiasm.
"If you like it, why don\'t we go to Xiyuan first when we get back?" Though he remembered they had been there before.
Lin Ruiqing shook her head. She was just making an observation. The scenery looked good partly because Jing Yi and the others seemed so happy, and it was clear all four of them were having a great time these past two days.
"If it were just the two of us going, it wouldn\'t have the same atmosphere."
Jing Beicheng didn\'t see this as a problem. "That\'s easy enough to fix. We\'ll just bring the kids along next time."
Lin Ruiqing gave him a reproachful look. Whenever this topic came up, Jing Beicheng acted as if the four children were little accessories that could be taken along at will.
On screen, Jing Yi was talking to Jing Zejun about "mountain running." Lin Ruiqing asked Jing Beicheng, "What does Yiyi mean by \'mountain running\'?"
"\'Mountain running\' is when car enthusiasts drive on mountain roads."
Lin Ruiqing didn\'t quite understand. She knew Jing Yi liked to go out driving sports cars, but how was this different from driving in the city or on a racetrack?
Jing Beicheng looked at the road on the screen. "It\'s not quite the same. In the city, there are too many cars, so you often can\'t enjoy the pleasure of driving. Racetracks are mainly about pursuing speed. Driving on roads like this is more about the experience."
Lin Ruiqing nodded, seeming to understand what Jing Beicheng meant, and turned her attention back to the screen.
She wasn\'t actually very worried about Jing Yi\'s love for racing. In fact, Jing Zeqian was probably the only one in the family who was overly concerned. She preferred to believe that Jing Yi was a sensible child who knew how to protect herself.
After learning about Jing Yi\'s interests, Lin Ruiqing knew what kind of gifts to buy for her.
After Jing Zejun had been found, Lin Ruiqing had given him all the birthday gifts she had prepared over the years, from small longevity locks to large properties.
But since Jing Yi had come to the Jing family, she hadn\'t yet given her a formal gift.
"Beicheng, keep an eye out for any car shows around here in the next few days. We could go and look around, buy a gift for Yiyi."
"Alright."
Meanwhile, Jing Yi was unaware that a gift was coming her way. At that moment, she was sitting in a corner with Jing Zejun, watching the \'standoff\' between Jing Zeqian and Wen Qingyan.
"Don\'t you have your own plans?" Jing Zeqian was barely maintaining a facade of calm, but in reality, he was grinding his teeth.
The Wen Qingyan in front of him remained as gentle as ever. "Mr. Jing, it\'s precisely because we don\'t have plans that we drove here. Since you\'re also on a road trip, why don\'t we just go together?"
Jing Zeqian had never realized that his company\'s big-time actor could be so thick-skinned! But he couldn\'t call him out on it, or this guy would surely be even more smug!
He wasn\'t about to play into someone else\'s hands!
Jing Zeqian forced a smile that didn\'t reach his eyes. "After all, there are two separate livestreams. Won\'t you get mixed up following both? And won\'t it be inconvenient for Director Xu?"
But Jing Zeqian had misjudged the situation. Director Xu hadn\'t stopped smiling for days. With such high viewership, how could he possibly give this up?
Director Xu hemmed and hawed, not wanting to hurt Jing Zeqian\'s feelings, but also not agreeing with him.
Seeing his reaction, Jing Zeqian knew that the production team wasn\'t an option. He glared at Director Xu, then looked at the brightly smiling Wen Qingyan, which annoyed him even more.
Jing Yi was getting bored of waiting, not knowing how long these two would keep discussing. "Junjun, why don\'t we take Big Brother and leave first?"
Jing Zejun smiled. "Sure, let\'s take little Yin along too." The boy was standing in the corner with his luggage, looking rather pitiful.
Jing Yi immediately agreed, turning to get into the driver\'s seat. Jing Zejun walked over to Wen Yin, telling him to put his luggage in the car.
Wen Yin glanced at Wen Qingyan, who was still in \'confrontation\', hesitated for a moment, then followed Jing Zejun to put his luggage in the RV. He also boarded the RV, seeing Jing Zeyou working, which made him a bit nervous.
Jing Zeyou looked up at the newcomer and said with a smile, "Relax, you can do your own thing. Don\'t mind me."
The RV was equipped with gaming devices. After Jing Zejun handed one to him, he returned to the passenger seat. The camera crew quickly followed.
[Hahaha! What kind of plot is this? Whose family\'s livestream am I watching exactly?!]
[Some people are having so much fun, their little brother has run off with someone else!]
[I predict Jing Yi is about to make a big move!]
[No need to predict, everyone\'s loaded up, just waiting to drive off!]
[Little Mr. Jing, stop arguing, your sister is about to drive away!]
The netizens\' guesses weren\'t wrong. By the time Jing Zeqian realized what was happening, the RV had already started.

He watched in shock as the vehicle began to move. Wen Qingyan\'s eyes also held a hint of panic as he looked around, not seeing Wen Yin.
Jing Zejun poked his head out, smiling at the two of them. "Brother Qingyan, follow our car, and don\'t forget to bring my second brother! Second brother, see you at the beach!"
It was then that Wen Qingyan saw his brother. Wen Yin was smiling and waving at him, looking absolutely delighted!
[Hahaha, I\'m dying of laughter!]
[I\'m about to laugh myself to death! Little Mr. Jing looks so pitiful!]
[Wen Qingyan is still looking for his brother, who has now become someone else\'s brother.]
Jing Zeqian was about to explode with anger. What kind of siblings were these? They just drove off without him! They had time to take someone else\'s brother but no time to wait for him?!
Jing Zeqian angrily got into the passenger seat of the car behind, fastened his seatbelt, and crossed his arms. Seeing Wen Qingyan still standing there, he snapped, "Hurry up and drive! They\'ll be far away soon!"
Wen Qingyan sighed, resigned to his fate as he got back into the car.
He could already imagine the heavy, silent atmosphere in the car for the next few hours.
