Nianzhen trembled with inexplicable nervousness. She had a feeling that Jiang Xun had seen through all her thoughts.
“At this time, you still want to sow discord and throw dirty water on me?”Jiang Xun snorted. “At home, shouldn’t you apologize for what you’ve done? Don’t you people, who call yourselves upper-class, like to talk about etiquette, politeness, and quality? They pointed at us and humiliated us. Shouldn’t they apologize? Even if I’m not favored, I’m still the eldest daughter of the Jiang family in the eyes of others. They humiliated the Jiang family and Jiang Chengye by humiliating me. Not only did you not stop them, but you also watched the show without saying a word. Is that something you should do?”
“It’s up to you to plot against me to your heart’s desire! However, in the outside world, you should put the Jiang family first. Do you think that the people present couldn’t hear the plot behind what you said just now? You are the one who is truly embarrassed, not me!”
“Even Mr. Qin…” Jiang Xun wanted to say Qin Zhenglu, but she suddenly thought of Mufeng.
She was used to calling Mufeng Mr. Qin, and Mufeng even said in a flirtatious manner that Mr. Qin was how his wife would address her husband when she was outside.
1
These words were imprinted in her mind for some reason.
It felt awkward to call Zhenglu Mr. Qin now.
At some point in time, Mr. Qin seemed to have become Mufeng’s personal address.
Zhenglu seemed to know why Jiang Xun suddenly stopped talking. He smiled amiably and said, “You can just call me uncle.”
Everyone: “!!!”
What the hell!
When did Zhenglu become so amiable?
The stern and intimidating appearance when he faced Zhengdu just now was the conventional impression that everyone had of him.
This made people unable to help but suspect that Jiang Xun was a member of the Qin family.
Zhenglu’s attitude towards Jiang Xun was too good!
Chengye was dumbfounded.
Why was Zhenglu so friendly towards Jiang Xun?
And “uncle?”
This kind of friendly attitude made him feel as if the two families were family friends.
Could it be that the two families were really family friends, but he didn’t know about it?
1
Nianzhen and Yuexi had mixed feelings, and their faces were stiff.
Just now, they thought that Jiang Xun had offended Zhengdu, and Chengye wouldn’t forgive her.
But now, Zhenglu was so close to Jiang Xun.
Zhenglu was the person that the Qin family could really speak about, the current head of the Qin family!
At first, everyone had some doubts. Zhenglu had just appeared, and it was only for the sake of saving face, to show that the Qin family was fair and magnanimous.
However, after the banquet ended, he would still make a move against the Jiang family.
However, looking at Zhenglu’s attitude towards Jiang Xun, everyone present knew that after this banquet, the Qin family would really not target the Jiang family.
Perhaps Jiang Xun wanted to benefit from this misfortune and fall into Zhenglu’s eyes.
Even if Zhenglu had a slightly good impression of her, the Jiang family might still take off.
Everyone had mixed feelings.
They were definitely envious rather than not, but this was really an enviable opportunity.
They didn’t have the guts to go against the Qin family.
Since Zhenglu had already spoken, Jiang Xun naturally went with the flow and started to lash out at Nianzhen. “Uncle already said that it was Qin Zhengdu and his wife who did something wrong and should apologize. Are you going to tell me that I did something wrong? Tch!”
Nianzhen froze and subconsciously looked at Chengye.
However, she saw Chengye looking at her with a cold expression.
Nianzhen quickly let go of Jiang Xun.
She was impulsive. She only thought that this was a good time to frame Jiang Xun, and had she ignored everything else.
1
However, Jiang Xun was too good at not letting go of a single point!
“In your dreams!” After being yelled at by Jiang Xun, Zhengdu was furious. He pointed at her and shouted, “It’s already good enough that I’m not pursuing the Jiang family. Don’t push your luck!”
Many of them even rubbed their eyes a few times before opening them again.
What did they see?
Zhengdu was actually dragged by Jiang Xun and was his butt was on the ground!
Even Zhengdu, who was sitting on the ground, was dumbfounded.
What had just happened?
He sat on the ground and could only look up at the crowd. His dazed head was still a little dizzy.
He felt that everyone around him was mocking him.
Zhengdu came back to his senses and glared at Jiang Xun.
“If you don’t apologize, don’t think about leaving!” Jiang Xun’s chin was raised high.
She still showed mercy and didn’t drag Yiling down with him.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to talk to her standing up.
“Hurry up and apologize. Don’t embarrass yourselves,” Zhenglu urged impatiently. “Isn’t it just an apology? What kind of man are you if you’re so clingy and unwilling to apologize?”
Zhengdu was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.
Wasn’t this his biological brother?!
1
Not only did he help an outsider, he even said such things about him!
Seeing that he could not count on Zhenglu, he could not leave without apologizing.
Zhengdu could only stand up. His face was flushed red as he said in a rough voice, “I’m sorry.”
However, Jiang Xun did not receive any merit points.
Yiling also said, “I’m sorry.”
There were still no merit points.
These two people were not as sincere as Nianzhen and her daughter.
Jiang Xun said with disdain, “Since it’s not a sincere apology, what’s the point in apologizing?”
Zhengdu and Yiling were speechless.
Didn’t you ask us to apologize?!
The two of them were furious!
The party was originally organized by the two of them, and they were the main characters.
They didn’t even invite Zhenglu and his family.
In the end, Zhenglu and his family suddenly came without warning.
They even helped outsiders when they came, causing them to lose so much face!
Even though it was their own banquet, Zhengdu and Yiling didn’t have the face to stay any longer.
After the two of them apologized, they pulled Muxiao and left in a hurry.
This time, Jiang Xun didn’t stop them.
They didn’t feel that they were in the wrong at all. It would be useless even if they apologized a hundred times.
Since they had lost all their face today, Jiang Xun didn’t bother to count the pitiful two merit points they had.
Zhenglu ignored the couple and introduced Qin Muye to Jiang Xun. “You two are the same age and are both at Beijing University. Have you met before?”
“Miss Qin is also at Beijing University?” Jiang Xun was surprised.
“Why are you calling her Miss Qin? So distant… Just call her Muye.” Zhenglu’s wife, Dong Hanbi, smiled and said. “Muye calls you Jiang Jiang for now?”
Jiang Xun felt a little strange when she heard Hanbi’s words.
What did she mean by calling her Jiang Jiang for now?
Was she going to change her address in the future?
Before Jiang Xun could think further, Muye said, “Jiang Jiang, call me Muye. I know about you. You’re at Beijing University’s School of Journalism and Communication. I’m in law school. Our two schools are quite far apart, and we usually spend our time in our respective schools. That’s why we haven’t met before. But we’re both at Beijing University. If you need anything in the future, feel free to look for me.”
Muye wasn’t the least bit unfamiliar with her. She took out her phone as if she was familiar with her. “Let’s add each other on Wechat.”
Even Jiang Xun could not react to the operation of Zhenglu’s family. She could only follow Muye’s lead.
