He turned to look at Jian Tan and signaled his younger brother with his eyes.

Jian Tan was such a smart person. It was not that he did not understand what Jian Heng meant. It was just if he wanted to do it or not. There was nothing that Jian Heng had to do.

No one could force him to do something he was not interested in doing.

Seeing his crown prince’s indifferent expression, Jian Heng sighed helplessly. Then, he chuckled and acted as the “lubricants” in today’s “love battlefield”!

“Mom, don’t keep talking to Xia Wei. Let her rest and drink some water! Auntie Li, go make us a pot of tea. Ah, right, Jingjing only likes soda water. Bring her a bottle too!”

Auntie Li was originally smiling at Xia Wei. When she suddenly heard Jian Heng’s instructions, she immediately smiled and agreed. She turned around and went back to the kitchen to work.

Naturally, she did not understand why Jian Heng emphasized Miss Ding’s preferences at this time.

In fact, her heart was filled with the two protagonists of this dinner, Xia Wei and Jian Tan.

Auntie Li had heard a lot about Xia Wei from her Second Young Master before this. She had even made nourishing soup for this incomparably beautiful girl previously!

However, no one noticed Auntie Li’s happiness at this moment because everyone in the living room fell silent strangely after Jian Heng finished speaking, especially Zhou Li, who had been talking to Xia Wei a second ago.

Xia Wei naturally saw Jian Tan’s mother’s strange pause. She turned to look at the woman beside Jian Heng. After thinking about it seriously, she said, “We met a few days ago at Haoting International. So you’re Big Brother Jian’s friend? Hello, I’m Xia Wei.”

Actually, Xia Wei knew that the woman in front of her knew her. After all, she had called her name that day. The reason why she introduced herself again was just out of basic politeness.

Although she did not know the source of the hostility in the other party’s eyes, Xia Wei still chose to respect her.

Xia Wei’s tone was very polite, but Ding Jing’s response to her was not like this. Ding Jing smiled lightly, but her smile did not reach her eyes. There was even a hint of disdain. “I said that we would meet soon! Do you know who 1 am today? You weren’t as nice as you are now at Haoting International that day! Miss Xia is indeed very good at judging others!”

As she spoke, the smile on her lips faded. She watched as Xia Wei slowly raised her chin and continued sarcastically, “My relationship with Jian Tan and Jian Heng is not like what you said. The three of us grew up together and our relationship is far deeper than you think! Brother Jian Tan treats me very well. We even went to and from school together in the past.”

Ding Jing seemed to be showing off some impressive “accomplishment”. As she spoke, the smugness in her eyes was already attacking Xia Wei!

“…” Xia Wei, who was just greeting the other party out of politeness, was inexplicably rebuked.

Seeing that Xia Wei was only looking at her with an unknown expression and did not respond to her, Ding Jing thought that she was afraid of her!

That’s right. They were in the Jian Family’s living room now, and everyone around them was from the Jian Family. It was very reasonable for Xia Wei to act like this.

However, it was not enough to bewitch Jian Tan if she wanted to really be on the Jian Family’s big ship and become a phoenix that flew to the top. Xia Wei had to make everyone in the Jian Family like her.

This was not an easy task. At least, she had been working on it for nearly 10 years and did not dare to say that she had won the Jian Family’s favor.

Ding Jing smiled and thought about some things. She would watch from the sidelines tonight and wait to see how a lowly person like Xia Wei would become a laughing stock!

However, would things really develop as Ding Jing thought? Best Actor Jian, who had the attribute of “protecting his wife”, would not agree.

“I just gave you a free ride for two weeks. It doesn’t count as going to and from school together. Moreover, your grades weren’t good at that time. You weren’t in the same class as me. We weren’t actually familiar with each other.”

Jian Tan’s tone was very indifferent and direct. Although he was talking to Ding Jing, her gaze was on Xia Wei..
