During dinner, Nanny Fang called Xia Ling from outside the door.
"Miss, Sir is back. He's waiting for you downstairs to have dinner together."
Ji Wenhan is back? Xia Ling's eyes moved slightly.
"Nanny Fang, I feel uncomfortable and don't want to eat anymore. You can tell Wenhan."
Nanny Fang: "Okay."
The footsteps outside the door left.
After waiting for a while, Xia Ling slowly got up and pushed the door open.

She went downstairs.
Ji Wenhan sat at the main seat in the restaurant.
He was wearing a well-tailored white shirt with a button at the collar. His cool hair was slightly wet. Obviously, he had gone to take a shower after coming back.
The crystal light above his head shone on Ji Wenhan's face.
The man's nose bridge was high, and his thin lips showed some indifference and sharpness. His ink-like eyes looked at Xia Ling indifferently.
On the other side, Nanny Fang's back was facing Xia Ling. She did not see Xia Ling, but she was still complaining
"Sir, Miss was very angry at noon. She somehow found out that you and the secretary went to the banquet together, and she kept crying and making a fuss to look for you."
"I tried my best to stop her, but she cried in the bedroom for the whole afternoon. Now, she's so angry that she doesn't even want to go downstairs to eat!"
The man's gaze fell behind Nanny Fang.
"Is that so? She cried the whole afternoon?"
The low and mellow voice was faint, but Nanny Fang didn't realize that something was wrong.
"Yes! I watched her run back to the room crying. I wanted to comfort her, but unexpectedly, miss locked the room and refused to let anyone in," Nanny Fang replied.

Xia Ling couldn't say anything as she followed her down.
She knew that Nanny Fang liked to talk about people behind their backs, so she wanted to catch her off guard.
Wouldn't that catch her off guard?
"MOTHER FANG!" She called out aggrievedly.
The young girl's sweet voice suddenly came from behind. Mother Fang trembled in fear and quickly turned around.
"Miss... Miss... Didn't you say you weren't going to eat? Why did you come down again?"
"I haven't seen Wenhan for a day. I wanted to talk to Wenhan too, so I came down! But, Mother Fang, why are you talking to Wenhan about me like this?"
She looked seriously at Mother Fang. The young girl's face was snow-white and her eyes were red. She was extremely aggrieved.
She complained in front of Ji Wenhan
"At noon, you were the one who told me to cause trouble at Wenhan's banquet. You even said that Wenhan would be with Secretary Li, so you kicked me out. That's why I felt so bad. Why did I hear you say to Wenhan that I wanted to cause trouble at the banquet, but you stopped me?"
"Miss, you heard it wrong. How could I say that?" Mother Fang laughed dryly.
She didn't expect that Ji Xiaxia would actually follow behind her and go downstairs.
Mother Fang wished she could swallow what she had just said. Now that she was in front of Ji Wenhan, Mother Fang didn't want Ji Wenhan to have any bad feelings for her.
"But Mother Fang, you clearly said that in the afternoon!"
Xia Ling continued to chase after her.
At that moment, Ji Wenhan's deep voice sounded from behind the dining table.
"Xia Xia, mother Fang is getting old. Sometimes, it's normal for her to be confused and mistaken. Sit down and eat together!"
His words were the final nail in the coffin. He was certain that Mother Fang was acting in front of her and behind her back.
Her face was burning, and Mother Fang did not have the nerve to stay.
"Sir, Miss, take your time to eat. Call me if you need anything."
She left in a hurry.
Over here, Xia Ling glanced at Nanny Fang's panicked back and went over to sit at the dining table.
Ji Wenhan sat in the main seat while Xia Ling sat beside him.
Ji Wenhan ate very quietly, elegantly and calmly.
