“No, Auntie. You can’t blame Jian Tan for such a thing. I’m not angry because of this. I’m just more curious about Jian Tan and Miss Ding’s past! Auntie, can you tell me about their past?”

Xia Wei smiled and replied. When she mentioned Ding Jing, she even emphasized her tone slightly, but everyone could tell that she wasn’t in a bad mood.

Zhou Li did not know Xia Wei as well as Jian Tan did. She glanced at the smile on the girl’s face and felt that she was not forcing herself. She heaved a sigh of relief. She naturally told Xia Wei everything she knew.

Of course, she could tell how much her son valued Xia Wei. Jian Tan had never left Ding Jing with no face like today. A few words from him caused Ding Jing to breakdown!

Wasn’t this also Jian Tan expressing his attitude to them? There were no stupid people in the Jian Family. Such a simple matter could naturally be seen at a glance.

Zhou Li liked Xia Wei very much, so she naturally would not go against Jian Tan. Mr. Jian had always been obedient to his wife, so he naturally would not say anything.

Hence, the Jian Family quickly returned to its previous relaxed atmosphere without Ding Jing.

There were not so many rules at the Jian Family’s dining table. Zhou Li pulled Xia Wei to eat and talk. The aura between the two of them was very compatible. They even excluded the other protagonist.

Eldest Young Master Jian finally confirmed one thing when his younger brother was ignored when he helped his girlfriend take food for the third time. Their Second Young Master seemed to have really angered his girlfriend!

It was rare for Jian Heng to see Jian Tan suffer. For a moment, his bad taste was aroused. He was about to say something to tease him, but he was stopped by Jian Tan’s sharp gaze the next moment.

Jian Tan’s eyes meant: You, stop it!

Seeing this, Eldest Young Master Jian smiled in amusement. He didn’t dare to continue plucking fur from the tiger’s butt.

He smiled and suddenly realized the reason why Xia Wei was angry with Jian Tan. It was also because he had just teased Ding Jing. He quickly fell silent again and skillfully pretended to be a quail that could not speak.

Naturally, the others at the table did not know that the two brothers had “crossed swords”.

This tumultuous banquet ended an hour later. Xia Wei liked Auntie Li’s culinary skills very much. She ate two big bowls of rice without pretense. Zhou Li also liked the satisfied expression on her face after she was full.

Zhou Li smiled at Xia Wei and said happily, “Alright, alright, alright! It’s good that you like the food at home. Come back with Jian Tan more often in the future. I’ll get Auntie Li to make you different dishes. Your industry has too high requirements for looks and figures. You keep saying that you have to diet and lose weight! I don’t think that’s good. Someone like you is already very good. You’re already so beautiful. Why are you still starving yourself? That’s not good.”

That night, Zhou Li praised Xia Wei countless times. Jian Yue did not know whether to laugh or cry.

He was also very happy, which was rare. He continued in a relaxed and gentle tone, “If 1 didn’t know that this was the first time you and Xia Wei met today, I would have thought that you were this child’s fan! Two out of your three sentences were praises for her.”

Zhou Li chuckled when he heard that. After glancing at her husband reproachfully, he reached out and gently took Xia Wei’s hand. She continued, “So what? Can’t I praise a good child like Weiwei who has a good temper like mine, more? I’m with you guys all day long. It’s not easy for an obedient and beautiful girl to talk to me. Can’t I say more?”

Hearing Zhou Li’s feigned complaints, Jian Yue nodded and surrendered. He smiled dotingly and said, “Madam, do as you please. I’m talking too much.”

Xia Wei looked at Jian Tan’s parents’ harmonious and intimate interaction and felt a warm feeling in her heart. It was very comfortable.

She looked at Jian Tan beside her and suddenly felt that it was not without reason that Mr. and Mrs. Jian had raised such an outstanding son like Jian Tan!

Just this harmonious and warm family environment was enough to make people envious.

While Xia Wei felt soft-hearted and warm, she was also a little disappointed because she remembered the original host and her family situation.

After bidding farewell to his reluctant mother and father, Jian Tan pressed the button to close the car window. However, his handsome head was still looking at Xia Wei..
