Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Jian Tan finished explaining this matter, he glanced sideways at Ding Jing and then at his Big Brother. A silent oppression spread around the two of them!
Jian Heng smiled bitterly and shut up.
Ding Jing looked a little embarrassed. She did not expect Jian Tan to disregard their friendship since they grew up together and embarrass her in front of Xia Wei.
She looked at Jian Tan’s face, and the embarrassment and anger in her heart quickly turned into grievances. It was as if she was going to cry in the next second!
“Also, I don’t object to you coming to our house as a guest, but Xia Wei is my girlfriend. I hope you can be more polite when you talk to her, especially in my Jian Family’s house! If you can’t do it, you can leave first. After all, you’re not in our dinner plan today.”
Jian Tan was not used to Ding Jing’s temper. When he said this, a few traces of displeasure even flashed across his eyes!
He thought that Ding Jing had really not changed at all. Her self-righteousness and unreasonable personality was as annoying as ever.
Jian Tan didn’t like her! This was something that Ding Jing had known for a long time, but she was indignant. There was an almost fantasizing innocence hidden in her heart. She felt that if she kept pestering Jian Tan, Jian Tan would change her mind and accept her one day.
However, she had never really thought about it properly. How could Jian Tan be someone she could control?
This was not the first time she had been rejected by Jian Tan in front of so many people. However, this pain was still clearly engraved in her bones. “Brother Jian Tan! Do you really hate me that much? Do you still remember the last time we met? Today is the first time the two of us met after I returned to the country. Is this how you treat me? Why are you so heartless? Do you know how much 1 missed you overseas?”
Ding Jing’s accusing voice echoed in the living room. When it entered their ears, everyone had different expressions.
Jian Yue, who had been silent all this while, slowly frowned. He interrupted Ding Jing, who was still trying to make a scene. “Enough! Why are you so noisy?”
Jian Yue calmed himself down and continued, “Ding Jing, tell me yourself. When have you not been fooling around like this when you see Jian Tan? Can’t you understand what occasion this is today? Do you want to embarrass the Ding Family here?”
As the head of the Jian Family, few people dared to provoke Jian Yue’s dignity. No matter how delicate Ding Jing was, she naturally did not dare to. She was afraid that she would never be able to enter the Jian Family again. Hence, she endured the tears in her eyes and looked at Jian Tan with an aggrieved and indignant expression!
Of course, there was also Xia Wei!
After Jian Yue finished berating Ding Jing, the atmosphere was silent. Jian Tan ignored Ding Jing and kept looking at Xia Wei’s face, as if trying to see some other emotions.
Jian Heng sighed silently. He looked at Ding Jing with an “expecting better from her”expression. He might be the person who cared about Ding Jing the most among everyone present.
Zhou Li looked at Ding Jing and then at her son. She frowned helplessly. She knew that Ding Jing was very obsessed with Jian Tan, but human feelings were the most difficult to force.
If Jian Tan did not like her, he did not like her. No matter how hard Ding Jing begged and pestered him, it was impossible.
Actually, before seeing Xia Wei in person today, Zhou Li was still a little hesitant. She had watched Ding Jing grow up. Other than being delicate and arrogant, there was nothing wrong with her. After all, she was a girl. There was nothing wrong with being spoiled.
Moreover, the Jian Family and the Ding Family were considered family friends and knew each other very well. It was possible for the two children to get married.
In short, Zhou Li’s previous thoughts were the same as Jian Heng’s. They had thought highly of Jian Tan and Ding Jing in the past and thought that there was nothing wrong with the two of them being childhood sweethearts.
However, things were not as they thought. Just the fact that Jian Tan did not like Ding Jing was enough to overturn all their previous hypotheses.
It was true that Ding Jing was the child she had watched grow up, but Jian Tan was her precious son. There was no reason for Zhou Li not to protect her son, but to help outsiders!
As the mistress of the Jian Family, Zhou Li naturally knew about these things.. She looked at Ding Jing and sighed softly…
