Yan Qing gritted his teeth. He did not reject Xia Tianjiao's approach. Instead, he raised his eyes and fixed them on Xia Jinqi's puzzled gaze. "It's true. "
The moment he finished speaking, he saw the last glimmer in her eyes suddenly extinguish... ...
It was like the fireworks that flew high in the sky during a festival. After they were bright and passionate, they quickly fell into the sea, extinguishing the last glimmer of light.
His heart felt like it had been cut open by a sharp blade. It was a raw pain.
Xiao Qi.
Forgive me.
This is a choice that I have no choice but to make.
"..."
Xia Jinqi thought that she had heard wrongly and instinctively wanted to ask another question, but Yan Jun beside her grabbed her hand and cut off the topic. "Didn't you say that you were a little tired just now? Go upstairs and rest first. "
After she finished speaking, she pulled Xia Jinqi's hand without any explanation and walked upstairs.
During this time, she still only gave Yan Qing an indifferent glance. She never called him the uncle that she should have.
Seeing Xia Jinqi being pulled away, Yan Qing frowned. He stood up in a flash and instinctively wanted to chase after her.
But behind him, Xia Tianjiao was still tugging at his arm. She spat softly, "she's so weak, just like Lin daiyu! "
Hearing this, Yan Qing's brows suddenly furrowed. He looked back at Xia Tianjiao and said coldly, "you seem to be very hostile towards her? "
"It's not just me, the whole family doesn't like her! " Xia Tianjiao snorted and continued to insult Xia Jinqi without any restraint.
It was as if as long as she stepped on Xia Jinqi, she would be able to reach a high position... ...
However, it was fine to say these words on a daily basis. She had almost forgotten that her father was still in the living room.
"Tianjiao, how can you speak like that? Don't let Mr. Yan hear a joke! " Xia Jitian opened his mouth, his tone sharp and full of reproach.
Today, he felt that this child was more and more displeasing to the eye!
Why did he dare to say anything?
Yan Qing was a member of the Yan family after all. If these words were to be spread back to the Yan family, what would people think?
He had used the banner of loving Xia Jinqi to get so much dowry!
This was the second time in a day that Xia Tianjiao had been scolded loudly by her father And it was in front of Yan Qing!
"I didn't say anything... " she mumbled.
She immediately felt humiliated. Xia Tianjiao's face was pale. She glared at the upstairs and sat back down on the SOFA. The hatred in her heart towards Xia Jinqi grew even stronger!
Jinx The moment I came back, I was scolded by my father!
Yan Qing looked at her indifferently and didn't say anything more.
Instead, Xia Mingzhu, who happened to walk in from outside the door, quietly took in everyone's expressions. Then, she came out to smooth things over with a smile. "I heard that fourth sister and fourth brother-in-law are back? Where are they? "
Xia Tianjiao crossed her arms and said sourly, "upstairs! "
Xia Mingzhu looked upstairs, and a trace of viciousness flashed in her eyes. Then, she continued the topic. "third brother is too much. Fourth sister came back with great difficulty, but he still hides in the study room and doesn't come out. Second Sister, go and call third brother over! "
As she said this, she winked at Xia Tianjiao.
Although Xia Tianjiao was unwilling, she still got up and walked towards Xia Chuanxu's villa.
After she left, Xia Mingzhu looked at Yan Qing and said with a hidden knife in her smile, "Mr. Yan, please don't take offense. These two sisters have been spoiled by my father since they were young. They don't know their limits when they speak. "
Yan Qing also smiled. "No, your sister is very outstanding. "
This sister referred to Xia Jinqi alone.
A person like Xia Tianjiao, who was arrogant and domineering, would never be able to catch his eye.
