After Guan Zherui finished speaking, she glanced at Xia Shige with a slightly apologetic look. She made a helpless expression and sighed while saying, "Shige, Jia Ning has been spoiled by her family. As her elder sister, you have to watch her make a fool of herself."
Xia Shige smiled when she heard that, but didn't say anything. She knew that Guan Zherui deliberately described Xia Jianing as a spoiled and willful girl in front of her, but she just thought it was funny. She didn't expect that Xia Jianing would be bullied to death by a woman of this level.
——That’s not right. The reason why Xia Jianing was bullied by Guan Zherui was because of the invisible man Xia Guokang…
Xia Guokang pretended to cough lightly and said in a good-tempered manner, "Yes, Jia Ning, you haven't come home for a few days. I can't get through to you on the phone. Your aunt Guan and I are scared! Just be obedient and go home with your dad, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Jianing snorted with some disdain. She didn't think that Xia Guokang and Guan Zherui would care about her!
——When she was locked up in the Changdao Hotel for so many days, Xia Guokang didn't even call the police. Now she says Xia Guokang cares about her, no one would believe it!
Jue told Xia Jianing that Xia Guokang and Guan Zherui came here just to pay New Year's greetings and they had no good intentions!
Seeing Xia Jianing just sneered and kept silent, Xia Guokang became a little anxious - he had to take Xia Jianing back today no matter what!
Xia Jianing's guess was correct. Xia Guokang came to pick up Xia Jianing today not because he cared about her, but because he was anxious to take Xia Jianing back to discuss the marriage with the Xie family.
Ever since Zhuo Yiyi died, Old Mrs. Xie has been worried that no one would take care of her youngest son Xie Xiangjun, so she urged Xia Jianing to come in quickly and take care of her precious son.
The Xie family has already agreed that as long as Xia Jianing gets married, they will help Xia Guokang take the position of the head. The city is currently undergoing reconstruction, and Xia Guokang is anxious to get a share of the pie. By then, his future will be truly limitless!
Xia Guokang was just about to persuade Xia Jianing again, but before he could say anything, his godson Teng Hao beside him suddenly spoke first.
The reason was simple: Teng Hao just noticed the half-eaten peach in Xia Jianing's hand.
——It’s actually a peach!
Since the natural disaster, he has never eaten fruit again!
Teng Hao's eyes lit up with excitement, and he immediately shouted to Xia Jianing, "I want to eat peaches, too! Give me peaches!"
Teng Hao was used to snatching Xia Jianing's things from her home, so he didn't care about anything else and just pounced on Xia Jianing!
Teng Hao was like a little wild boar rushing around, and Xia Jianing didn't react for a while. Fortunately, Xia Shige was quick-witted and the moment Teng Hao was about to touch Xia Jianing, she raised her foot and kicked him out!
Teng Hao rolled on the blanket after being kicked by Xia Shige. He cried out "Wow" and shouted to Xia Guokang and Guan Zherui: "Mom and Dad, save me! This stinky woman bullied me!"
Guan Zherui became anxious upon seeing this. She put Xia Zicheng down in her arms, ran over to help Teng Hao up, and shouted at Xia Shige, "What are you doing! How could you hit Xiao Hao? He's still a child! You're going too far!"
Xia Shige sneered and replied, "You are so young and yet you are capable of such banditry. As parents, you can't do anything about it. I can only take care of it for you."
"You!" Guan Zherui glared at Xia Shige with resentment, and asked Xia Guokang behind her for help: "Husband, look at this... Xiaohao is still a child, your niece is too harsh!"
Xia Guokang also looked at Xia Shige with disapproval and started to scold her: "Shige, you've gone too far. Xiaohao is now my godson and he's also your brother! How can you treat your brother like this? Do you still act like a sister?"
Xia Shige was about to laugh at Xia Guokang's appearance. She waved her hands with a look of disdain and replied, "Only those with my grandmother's blood are my brothers and sisters. The son you adopted is just your son, not my brother. Don't try to make connections here!"
