Xia Wei had never questioned Jian Tanâs ability. Not to mention the super aristocratic families behind him, even a small local tyrant like Jiang Xiao, who occupied City A, would not dare to do anything to him as he was a top celebrity in the international film industry.
Unless the Jiang Family did not want to continue developing their business in Chinaâs film industry in the future!
Hence, Jiang Xiao actually had no chance of winning against Jian Tan. The only way he could try to control Jian Tan was through Xia Wei. However, Xia Wei was also his weakness, so there seemed to be no solution for this roundâ¦
At this moment, Xia Wei did not care about anyone other than Jian Tan. She had been listening to Jian Tan with a smile. It was only when Jian Tan mentioned City T and the âsoft setbacksâ that she suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Seeing the roguish look on Jian Tanâs face slowly disappear, Xia Wei frowned and asked, âWhat âsoft setbacksâ? Do you mean that you left a âbackup planâ for Jiang Xiao when we came back from City T previously? Thatâs why he was in such a sorry state when he first appeared?â
Jiang Xiao had said it himself just now. He had just returned to City A when he bumped into her and Jian Tan in the hospital. Today was already the fifth day since they returned from City T. From this, it was obvious how long Jiang Xiao had been held up in City T!
Jian Tan knew that Xia Wei had always been very smart. He took the initiative to mention City T because of such concerns. Instead of letting Jiang Xiao think that it was something that could threaten his relationship with Xia Wei, he might as well confess everything to Xia Wei now.
He did not want Xia Wei to think that he was a dishonest person. The most taboo thing for two people in an intimate relationship was to hide and suspect each other. A smart person like Jian Tan would naturally not be stupid enough to make such a low-level mistake!
This phrase summarized the Best Actorâs thoughts at this moment. It was: Confess and be lenient. Resist and be strict.
âYes. Previously, when we were in City T, I asked Ye Ting to find a random excuse to detain Jiang Xiao and his subordinates in the military camp of his garrison. I didnât expect the Jiang Family to rescue them so quickly. Itâs only been a few days, but Jiang Xiao has already returned from City T. Iâve really underestimated him.â
Jian Tan observed the expression on Xia Weiâs face as he spoke, as if he was afraid of missing out on his girlfriendâs disgust. That was something he did not want to see happen.
As if she had roughly guessed it, no other emotions could be seen on Xia Weiâs face. She only looked at Jian Tan, who was carefully observing her. After a while, she smiled and asked in confusion, âWhy are you looking at me like that?â
Seeing this, Jian Tan chuckled. Looking at Xia Weiâs puzzled eyes, he replied, âItâs nothing. Iâm just a little worried that youâll be unhappyâ¦â
âWhy are you so worried? Do I look like the kind of innocent female lead who doesnât stand on her boyfriendâs side even when heâs right? Please, Idol, thatâs an ancient persona from many years ago. Letâs move with the times, okay?â
As she spoke, she smiled and took the initiative to stuff her hand into Jian Tanâs palm. Then, she leaned closer to the other party and continued, âJiang Xiao isnât a good person. How can we subdue him easily without using some small tactics?! You did very well like this. Youâve helped me vent my anger. Not bad!â
âBesides, if he really does things âcleanlyâ, Ye Ting wonât be able to find anything on him. In the end, he deserves it. Iâm not that saintly to forgive the person who harmed me unconditionally. In my opinion, itâs only right to mess with him once. Thereâs nothing wrong with that.â
After saying that, Xia Wei looked up and smiled brightly at Jian Tan. She looked like a little sun that was emitting light and warmth.
Under such a gentle gaze, Jian Tanâs heart had already turned soft and hot.
He raised his hand and touched Xia Weiâs incomparably beautiful face. After a few seconds, he smiled in relief, as if his heart, which had been hanging carefully just now, had a place to rest.
âWhy are you so obedient? Come over and let me kiss you.â
The love in the Best Actorâs eyes was very intoxicating. Xia Weiâs heart thumped wildly as she looked at him..
