âWe understood. No wonder they were so calm.
I frowned and asked him, âWhy is Mr. President so calm?â
Since the matter had been blown up, why didnât the President come forward?
âOh right. What about the President?â Mai Qi had just remembered this important person.
Jing Tian said indifferently, âHe has already lost the best opportunity to reconcile. If he had come out to meet us when we were at his house, things wouldnât have turned out this way.â
âWe were all stunned.
âAre you saying that he was at home when we went to visit?â I asked Jing Tian.
Jing Tian nodded with a mocking smile on his lips. However, his gaze was ice-cold. âIt was clear from the way Aunt Zhi acted. She was putting on the show for the President, trying to convince him that she was qualified to be his wife.
âAt the time, if he had shown up to greet us, we would have given him face. However, he was too selfish. He didnât even say something when Angel came to cause the scene. He wanted to see our bottom line.â
I thought about it for a moment. It was true that Xiao Zhi was acting strangely. However, it could be quite reasonable when viewed from another personâs perspective.
From An Linâs point of view, Xiao Zhi was the perfect stepmother for Angel. She was understanding of Angel and tried to shield her from the monster that was me.
Such good acting!
âLhave no bottom line,â I said lightly.
Mai Qi laughed loudly and reached out her hand to give me a high five. âWell said, Nanxing!â
Jing Tian reached out his hand and ruffled my hair as he laughed.
I was stunned. How could I have such good luck to find this man?
âWhat will happen next?â I asked him. I unconsciously relied on him.
âWe will wait and see,â he said indifferently. I loved his calm appearance.
I felt a myriad of emotions surging up in my heart, and I felt an unprecedented sense of security.
Jing Ni asked hesitantly, âSeventh uncle, will this affect your relationship with the family? After all, the Madam President is Grandma Lanâs sister.â
Only now did I remember this layer of the relationship, and I couldnât help but feel guilty. I only cared about myself, and I had never thought about Jing Tian.
However, Jing Tian replied, âItâs fine. Aunt Zhi, you saw earlier, was not the real her. You always talk about benefits with Aunt Zhi. Remember that.â
âWe looked at each other in confusion.
Jing Tian didnât explain further. âWhat do you want to eat tonight? Or do you want me to make the arrangements? Nanxing, would you like to try some of your favorite dishes in the past?â
I readily agreed.
Our dinner hadnât even started when my little uncle came over.
Looking at his relaxed appearance, I knew that the result was similar to the one Jing Tian predicted.
I couldnât help but shake my head. It was too unchallenging.
âAs soon as I returned home, I saw that the living room was filled with gifts. Daisy said that Kong Yun had come over.
âThe two madam presidents used completely different methods. They were quite interesting.
âLittle aunt, Iâll leave this level of social interaction to the respected elders like you! Young girls like Jing Ni and me wonât be involved.â I turned around and smiled at Mai Qi.
Mai Qi was stunned for a moment. âNanxingâ¦â
Tasked in surprise, âWhatâs wrong?â
Tears flashed in Mai Qiâs eyes. âYou finally talk to me like you used toâ¦â She smiled and patted her chest. âOf course, you can leave this to me. This is the chance to squeeze her dry.. Do you think Iâll let that slip away?â
