Nangong Yi and Shan Jinxi seemed to be competing with each other, one saying "My wife Xiaoxiao" and the other retorting with "My Xiaoxiao," as if they had to prove themselves right before giving up.
Xu Ziang and Yan Xinji had never seen Shan Jinxi so childish before, but they said nothing and just stood quietly to the side.
Suddenly, they noticed a suspicious person standing at the door eavesdropping. Just as they were considering whether to tell the two of them, Shan Jinxi waved for them to leave and told them to close the door.
Nangong Yi also saw Su Xiaoxiao. Seeing that Shan Jinxi seemed to have something to say to him, he notified Dong Jinyang to temporarily take her away from the door.
"President Shan, please excuse my behavior. My daughter Xiaoxiao was frightened by you at the cemetery last time, so she listed you as a dangerous individual."
"It was my fault last time."
Dan Jinxi's expression instantly turned extremely serious, and a warning look clearly appeared in his eyes.
"Nangong Yi, I won't ask you about the news this morning, but if I find out you bullied Xiaoxiao, I'll be the first to not let you off the hook."
The sudden remark caused Nangong Yi's eyes to narrow abruptly, and the cold gaze reflected in his icy eyes was filled with intense hostility.
What do you mean by that?
"Don't you understand?"
Dan Jinxi knew very well that Nangong Yi was pretending to be stupid. At this moment, he got up from the sofa and walked to the French window. The self-blame on his face became even more profound when he turned his back to the man behind him.
"Nangong Yi, although my Xiaoxiao has never been in a serious relationship, I know she wants to get to know you. She always talks about how Luo Yutong ruined our relationship with her, and she always has a gritted-teeth expression on her face."
I once told her very seriously: "Xiaoxiao, if you want to get to know Nangong Yi again, I'll help you get rid of all the women around him."
But that silly girl said: I don't want to get to know that playboy. So what if Luo Yutong lied? His behavior has already confirmed that he is a 'playboy'.
Nangong Yi, although my Xiaoxiao is willful, she's not unreasonable. If someone treats her well, she'll reciprocate with the same kindness.
Dan Jinxi's meaning was already very clear. Even if Nangong Yi wanted to find an excuse to cover up for Su Xiaoxiao, there was no way to do so now.
He stood up and walked forward, standing side by side with Shan Jinxi in front of the French windows. Looking at the gloomy sky outside, he said earnestly, "Xiaoxiao is my wife. I will do everything I can to give her the best of everything and will not let her suffer any grievances or harm."
"Remember every word you say right now."
The coldness on Shan Jinxi's face gradually faded, and he could finally put his mind at ease.
Nangong Yi understood his unspoken meaning and, as she nodded her promise, earnestly said, "When the time comes, she will definitely tell you herself. You are the family member in this world who cares about her the most, besides her grandfather."
"No need. I'll go back to France after I've resolved the issues with the Su family. It doesn't matter whether she acknowledges me or not. I just want her to live a good life."
Dan Jinxi spoke with utmost seriousness. He would never force Su Xiaoxiao to do anything, much less make decisions that would put her in a difficult position. This was his consistent way of spoiling her.
In fact, Nangong Yi had long expected that Su Xiaoxiao would be exposed in front of Shan Jinxi.
Since he doesn't want to expose this relationship, there's no need for me to say anything more.
Nangong Yi smiled helplessly; his little wife really had no talent for acting.
