The Zhou family's reunion banquet was naturally a news story online. As soon as Xie Jing got home that evening, hundreds of messages flooded her class group chat. After reading everyone's @ messages about her, Xie Jing replied, "He's indeed my uncle's son. This isn't just gossip or groundless rumors."

Wang Cancan: [Do all wealthy people spend their money like this?]

Xie Jing: [It depends on the person; not everyone is like this.]

As soon as she showed up, the group immediately became lively with gossip, especially gossip about wealthy families. Who wouldn’t want to know the first-hand news?

Wang Cancan took a deep breath: [Who is the child's biological mother? ]

Xie Jing was stunned for a moment: "I can't say much about the child's biological mother. After all, it's her privacy. I'm going to log off first. I have other things to do."

She wouldn't say this online. Who knows if someone would exaggerate and post it online? She hasn't forgotten Du Mei. So, how is Du Mei?

Thinking of this, Xie Jing privately chatted with Wang Cancan: [How is Du Mei doing recently?]

Wang Cancan glanced at the group chat message: [It's the same as before, what's wrong? But last time she and Huang Yan got into a fight and it even went to the principal's office.]

Xie Jing briefly recounted Du Mei's visit to her, and Wang Cancan's anger boiled over: "She's quite calculating. Isn't this clearly an attempt to get you to help her? You absolutely cannot help her."

"Of course I wouldn't," Xie Jing replied to Wang Cancan. "I just think she feels like she's been bullied, so everyone should stand on her side and someone should stand up for her."

"Haven't you already stood up for her?" Wang Cancan refused to be led astray: "If it weren't for you, Wei Jin would have wanted to suppress this matter that day. Du Mei can blame Huang Yan and Wei Jin, but she shouldn't blame you."

She's angry now simply because you didn't do what she expected. Wang Cancan saw it clearly: "Although victim blaming is wrong, you should still be careful when you're out and about."

[It was Huang Yan's fault that she was plotted against on a stage like the school anniversary celebration. But isn't it also her fault that she didn't know how to choose friends and judge people?]

Xie Jing was in a good mood: [Not everyone thinks the same way as you. I'll treat you to a meal some other day.]

Wang Cancan understood the meaning of the music: [Don't worry, I will help you keep an eye on Du Mei and Huang Yan.]

As soon as she said this, Xie Jing sent her a big red envelope. Wang Cancan was delighted: [Boss is so generous!]

Xie Jing: [Thank you for your care. I'll treat you to some milk tea.]

Wang Cancan quickly accepted the red envelope. She liked Xie Jing's attitude of using money to pave the way. Although she didn't ask for money, she wouldn't refuse it if Xie Jing gave it to her.

Zhou Jiyun couldn't help but feel jealous when he saw Xie Jing holding her phone as soon as she came back: "Jingjing, you haven't spoken to me for almost an hour."

Xie Jing understood and threw her phone aside: "I've finished chatting with my classmates. Everyone has heard the gossip about the Zhou family."

Zhou Jiyun wasn't surprised. "Everyone is naturally curious about gossip, especially gossip about wealthy families. Let's go on a date this weekend, shall we? We've been married for so long, and we've rarely had a proper date."

Xie Jing knew how to avoid spoiling the fun, so she smiled immediately: "Okay, let's go on a date. Where do you want to go?"

Zhou Jiyun became interested: "There's an art exhibition at the art museum tomorrow morning. Let's go see it. There's a private restaurant near the art museum that has a good reputation. I've reserved a table in advance, but I haven't decided on a table for the afternoon."

Xie Jing's mind was agitated for a moment: "When did you start thinking about this?"

Zhou Jiyun chuckled: "It hasn't been long, I just wanted to spend some time with you. We usually go back to the old house on weekends, and we rarely go out on dates alone."

Xie Jing thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't really matter where we go or what we do. What matters is that we are together. That's enough."

Zhou Jiyun covered his chest and said, "Jingjing, you are so good."

Xie Jing: "I will never be able to beat you. Tell me, how many traps have you dug for me before?"

Zhou Jiyun hugged her: "I was wrong."

"I'm not really mad at you," Xie Jing nudged his chin with her head. "Then let's go to the art exhibition tomorrow morning, and then we can watch a movie at home this afternoon?"

Zhou Jiyun was puzzled: "Don't go to the cinema? I heard that it would be more lively."

Xie Jing declined the offer: "Forget it. It's quieter at home. There's no need to go to the cinema and squeeze in with so many people."

Zhou Jiyun suddenly recalled the scene of him hugging Xie Jing while lying on the sofa watching a movie... Xie Jing knew his thoughts were wandering as soon as she saw his eyes: "Hurry up and wash up, you have to get up early tomorrow."

Zhou Jiyun took the clothes Xie Jing stuffed in and was pushed into the bathroom outside by Xie Jing. Okay, he knew Xie Jing was uncomfortable, but did he not even have the right to associate?

Early Sunday morning, Zhou Jiyun and Xie Jing had just left the house when they received a tip from Brother Fan: "Zhou Jiwen and Shen Yaozhi have also left the house, and they seem to be heading out of the city."

Because they were in Xie Jing's car, Zhou Jiyun spoke without hesitation: "Are they together?"

Brother Fan: "Well, I guess it's going out on a date."

Zhou Jiyun understood: "Okay, then please keep an eye on it for me, Brother Fan."

Xie Jing suddenly spoke up: "Do you think it's because Zhou Zhida suddenly had a little son, which was a bit of a slap in the face of the Shen family, that Zhou Jiwen wanted to appease Shen Yaozhi?"

Zhou Jiyun: "It's not impossible, but it's none of our business."

Xie Jing scratched her cheek: "I think Chen Yaozhi seems to care about Zhou Jiwen very much. If she knew that Zhou Jiwen has always been using her, wouldn't it be a bit too cruel for a girl?"

Zhou Jiyun raised an eyebrow. "Cruel? Her father, Shen Fu, has never been kind to me. Besides, she's been causing trouble for you time and time again. Have you forgotten?"

Xie Jing pondered for a moment: "I'm not soft-hearted, but I know that the person she likes is a scumbag, but I still pretend to be deaf and dumb. I always feel like I'm an accomplice."

"She did try to exclude me with her words time and again, but she didn't succeed, did she?" Xie Jing thought for a moment and said, "I'm not a saint, but I feel that if she and Zhou Jiwen were really engaged or married, and if these scandals were exposed in the future, it would have a huge impact on a girl."

Zhou Jiyun: "I told you that you have the softest heart, but you still don't believe it."

He paused and said, "How about this, isn't her and Zhou Jiwen's engagement party next month? Send a copy of this information to Chen Yaozhi before the party. Whether she believes it or not is her business."

Xie Jing raised an eyebrow: "If you do this, the Shen family may not necessarily remember your kindness. Hasn't Shen Fu been eyeing them covetously?"

Zhou Jiyun didn't care: "I don't need others to think well of me. As long as you care about me, that's enough."
