The cold-hearted president falls in love with the vengeful princess

When Shen Jiayi woke up, she was lying on the sofa. Grandpa Ling, Xu Lin, and Xiao Ying were standing in front of her, surrounding her. She was half-opening her eyes, her long, black eyelashes fluttering slowly. She moved her red lips and said, "Xia Xia, Xia Jinghao, where are you? Please come back soon." Her voice was weak and sobbing. Her eyes were bloodshot. Grandpa Ling frowned with heartache.

Xu Lin and Xiao Ying both cried, their eyes filled with tears. Xu's mother looked at Shen Jiayi, stepped forward, and half-squatted down. She looked at her daughter with heartache. If she hadn't protected her pregnant belly just now, she would really be lying in the hospital now, wouldn't she?

Shen Jiayi glanced at Xu Lin through her tearful eyes. She slowly opened her eyes wide, and the crystal tears slid uncontrollably down her cheeks, dripping onto the sofa and into her mouth. The tears blurred her dark, gem-like eyes, and she said through her teary vision, "Mom, Mom, please, contact Xia Jinghao right now, contact him for me, I want him back."

After Shen Jiayi finished speaking, she burst into tears. Xu Lin was terrified. She knelt down, her eyes fixed on Shen Jiayi's round pregnant belly, which rose and fell with her sobs. She frowned and said, "My little darling, please don't cry! Please, don't cry! What should I do?"

Xiao Ying burst into tears. She was standing on the right and quickly knelt down. Looking at her mistress crying so uncontrollably, Xiao Ying felt as if her heart was being ripped out. With tears in her eyes, she said, "Please, mistress, please don't cry anymore. Please, mistress, mistress."

In an instant, Xu Lin and Xiao Ying's cries for help filled the entire living room. Shen Jiayi, on the sofa, opened her eyes, tears streaming down her face like a faucet. She cried hard, her fair skin turning red from crying. She sobbed breathlessly, "Xia Jinghao, waaaaah, come back, come back to me, Xia Jinghao."

Seeing this, Grandpa Ling reached out and helped Xu Lin and Xiao Ying up. The two turned to look at Grandpa Ling, who gave them a signal. Xu Lin and Xiao Ying quickly stood up. Grandpa Ling bent down slightly, looking at Shen Jiayi, whose face was covered in tears. He said softly, "Jiayi, listen to Grandpa Ling. I'll call the secretary from the Xia Group right now and have her go to Germany tonight. Don't cry, okay? Listen to what Grandpa Ling has to say!"

Shen Jiayi's eyes flickered slightly, her eyes reddening. She looked around and saw it was Old Master Ling. Tears streamed down her face as she asked, "Really? Grandpa Ling, is it true? You want Secretary Su to go to Germany to find him?" She asked, her voice choked with sobs.

Grandpa Ling looked at Shen Jiayi, determined to ensure that Xia Jinghao, that brat, returned to Ancheng safely, without any mishap. He nodded vigorously, saying, "Yes, yes, I'll have Secretary Su go to Germany tonight. What time is it now? Let me see..."

After saying that, Grandpa Ling glanced down at his watch, then looked up at Shen Jiayi. His gaze was gentle as he smiled warmly and said, "It's almost eight o'clock tonight. I'm going back to the Xia family now to call Secretary Su. Promise Grandpa Ling you won't cry anymore, okay?"

Grandpa Ling spoke very gently to Shen Jiayi, who had calmed down. Shen Jiayi slowly stopped crying, her dark gem-like eyes sparkling even brighter. She sniffed and said, "Okay, I promise you, Grandpa Ling, I won't cry anymore."

A moment later, Xiaoying had no choice but to call the dessert shop to ask for leave. The owner said she would be allowed three days off, and she could come to get off work at the dessert shop at 8 p.m. sharp three days later, and could not leave until 12:30 a.m. Xiaoying was stunned for a moment, and she immediately replied: Okay, okay, I understand, thank you, boss lady. My young lady has had a little trouble, and I can't leave. She is pregnant, and I am very worried.

The landlady didn't say anything, but told Xiaoying to take good care of her young lady. Xiaoying didn't know what to say, so she replied, "I will, thank you, boss. I'll hang up now." Xiaoying heard the landlady telling her other things on the phone. She listened carefully and then turned to look at the sofa.

After hanging up the phone, Xiaoying quickly walked to the sofa. She squatted down, her watery eyes looking at the young lady whose eyes were half-swollen from crying. She smiled gently and said, "I asked the boss for three days off. I'll be back at the dessert shop in three days. It's okay, Miss, you don't need to worry about me."

Shen Jiayi's eyes moved slightly. She wanted to get up from the sofa. Xu Lin quickly moved closer to Shen Jiayi. She bent down, and Xiao Ying walked to the front of the sofa. The two of them carefully held her wrists and helped her up from the sofa little by little. Shen Jiayi was weak and had her head down. Xu Lin quickly raised her hand and slowly lifted her face.

Germany - Xia Jinghao rushed to Michaels' company, followed by Chi Che. His long legs seemed to fly as he strode into the company lobby. Michaels saw Xia Jinghao's cold expression, walked up to him, bowed and said: "President Xia, the e-commerce conference is about to end. I'm so grateful for all the trouble you've caused these past few days, President Xia."

Michaels spoke in standard German. Xia Jinghao stared at Michaels with sharp, fox-like eyes. His gaze was clear and cold as he said with a cold face, "It's nothing, Michaels. The Glass Heart will definitely be finished in ten days. I've already urged the company. I'll urge them again today. Is that alright?"

Michaels paused, his azure eyes fixed on Xia Jinghao, and said politely, "Okay, we've worked together before, I trust you, Mr. Xia. I'll still give you the original price. Let's hurry to the e-commerce venue; they're already setting it up."

It was 7:30 AM in Germany. Xia Jinghao's fox-like eyes flickered slightly as he said, "Okay, Michaels, I'll go with you." Michaels smiled, turned, and walked towards the long central aisle. He opened the main door with his right hand, revealing the e-commerce event venue being set up outside the company lobby.

When Grandpa Ling returned to the Xia family villa, he didn't even have time to drink water before rushing to his study. He sat on the sofa, took his phone out of his pocket, and saw that it was almost nine o'clock. Grandpa Ling dialed a number, his brows furrowed as he listened to the busy tone on the phone.

Su Yunxi, from the Xia Group, had just stepped out of the company gate and was heading towards the subway entrance when her phone rang in her bag. She stopped and slowly took out her phone. Seeing that it was Old Master Ling, Su Yunxi's almond-shaped eyes widened slightly, and her pale face froze for a moment. Did Old Master Ling want to give her the order number?

Su Yunxi answered the phone, and Grandpa Ling said anxiously: Hurry up, Xiao Su, come to the Xia family villa, come here, Xia Jinghao has had an accident in Germany, Jiayi is pregnant, she is crying uncontrollably, come here quickly, I have to send you to Germany.

Secretary Su turned pale with fright. Her eyes widened and her lips trembled as she said, "No, no, no, it can't be, our CEO? President Xia, how could this be..." Su Yunxi covered her mouth in fright. Old Master Ling said helplessly, "This morning I received a call from him in Germany. He said he wanted to find out the cause of his father's death and asked me to wait for him to come back. I have no idea what this kid is up to."

Su Yunxi was completely confused. What did the death of President Xia's father have to do with the president's business trip to Germany? She quickly turned around and walked towards the intersection outside the company, holding her phone in her right hand. Her eyes swept across the road, and Su Yunxi frowned urgently, saying, "Don't worry, Grandpa Ling, I'm going to the president's villa now. Don't rush me."

With Xiao Nuan supporting her shoulders, Shen Jiayi tilted her head up. Xu Lin held a warm, damp towel and gently wiped it over Shen Jiayi's red, swollen eyes several times. Xiao Ying held her shoulders still. Shen Jiayi looked like a broken doll, lifeless, with dark, warm eyes.

Xu Lin was so anxious she was about to cry out, "Mom begs you, Jiayi, please say something, even just a hum, please don't just ignore me, you're going to drive your mom crazy!" Tears welled up in Xu Lin's eyes, and her hand holding the wet towel trembled several times.

But Shen Jia seemed completely unresponsive. Her body was tense. Xu Lin removed the wet towel, gently lowered her head, and carefully looked at Shen Jia. Her gaze was unfocused and empty, and her face was slightly pale. Xu Lin raised her right hand and waved it in front of her eyes a few times, saying, "Hey, Shen Jia, did you hear that? Give your mother some reaction, do you hear me!"

Xiao Ying stood behind her, her hands on her shoulders. Xiao Ying looked at Madam Xu and asked worriedly, "What should we do?" Madam, Miss hasn't spoken for over an hour. Xu Lin's eyes flickered. She looked at Xiao Ying and said helplessly, "Let's help Miss out first. She hasn't eaten anything yet. I'll cook her something to eat first."

Xiao Ying slowly turned Shen Jiayi's shoulder, pulled her arm, and led her out of the bathroom. Xu Lin came out of the bathroom and hurriedly ran to the kitchen. She chopped up the lettuce leaves, took out ham sausages and some mushrooms, and quickly took out the pot for making porridge from the cupboard.

Then, a fire was lit, and Xu's mother cooked food for Shen Jiayi in the kitchen. Xiao Ying sat with Shen Jiayi on a blanket. Looking at her young lady with vacant eyes, she said sadly, "Please, Miss, don't cry. Your eyes are all red. We just finished reducing the swelling. Also, you are pregnant, so you can't have too much emotional fluctuation."

Shen Jiayi's eyes were empty. She stared at the TV cabinet, her face pale. Xiao Ying frowned and said, "Listen to me, Miss, there must be a way to solve this. Didn't Grandpa Ling go back to his son-in-law's villa? Young Master Xia will definitely be safe and sound. So, please believe me, okay?"

When Shen Jiayi heard the name Xia Jinghao, her eyes flickered slightly. Seeing her mistress's eyes move, Xiaoying smiled and said, "It's true, Miss. The young master will definitely come back safe and sound. Please believe me!" As Xiaoying spoke, she reached out her right hand and tightly grasped Shen Jiayi's trembling hands in her palm.

Shen Jiayi moved her bloodless lips, her voice choked in her throat, and asked, "Really, really, really?" Xiao Ying nodded repeatedly. Shen Jiayi's breath caught in her throat. She tilted her head back, placed her right hand on her waist, and remained silent for a moment before moving her pale lips and saying, "Okay, I believe you, I believe you, I believe you."

Perhaps because she had been crying for a long time, Shen Jiayi's voice trembled slightly. Xiao Ying burst into tears, her vision blurred, and her eyes welled up with moisture. She blinked sharply and said, "What Xiao Ying says will definitely come true. Please believe me, Miss!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Lin came over with a plate. She knelt on the blanket and gently placed the plate on the coffee table. Shen Jiayi heard the sound and slowly turned around. Xu Lin looked up at Shen Jiayi with delighted eyes and a beaming smile, saying, "Mom made you mushroom, lettuce, and ham congee. It smells so good, especially the ham. It's imported from abroad. Eat it while it's hot!"

Shen Jiayi's black gemstone eyes flashed a few times. The glass bowl on the plate was steaming. She nodded slightly. Xiao Ying was overjoyed. Xu Lin also smiled. Xiao Ying turned to look at Madam Xu. Madam Xu glanced at Xiao Ying. The two of them stood up at the same time, each holding one of Shen Jiayi's shoulders, and helped her up from the blanket.

An hour later, at 9:30 PM, Su Yunxi arrived at the Xia family villa. She rushed inside, where two maids were standing. Hearing footsteps, they looked up. Zhao Ma and Su Ma quickly approached. Su Yunxi looked at the two maids and asked breathlessly, "Excuse me, where is Old Master Ling? Where is he? I…"

Just as Old Master Ling stepped out of his study, he saw Secretary Su and slowly said, "This...this...Secretary Su, come here." Su Yunxi hadn't gone home yet; she'd taken a taxi to the Xia family villa. She wasn't in the mood to appreciate the villa's beauty; her mind was preoccupied with what had happened to the president, and how he could have gotten into trouble...

Su Yunxi looked towards the center and ran over in a few steps. Reaching Old Master Ling, she met his gaze directly, her brows furrowed as she asked, "What happened? Old Master Ling, what happened to our CEO Xia?" "Huh?"

Old Master Ling looked at Secretary Su and sighed, saying, "Come into the study with me, and I'll tell you everything, Secretary Su." With that, Old Master Ling turned and stepped into the study. Su Yunxi, worried, stepped forward and helped Old Master Ling into the study. Two servants came to the study door, closed it, and retreated.

Shen Jiayi barely slept all night. Xiaoying and Xu Lin stayed by her bedside. Shen Jiayi's eyes remained open the whole time. Xu Lin frowned and said, "Go to sleep quickly. Everything will be alright. Haohao will be alright. Trust Mom. Be good, close your eyes quickly, Jiayi."
