Qin Yan, Xiang Chuannan, and a few other men came over.
"What's going on?" Qin Yan walked around Ning Xi, bent down and asked her.
Ning Xi looked at him, then at the others, and suddenly said in a somewhat aggrieved tone: "Husband, I accidentally took a little too much food and didn't finish it. Second Aunt thought it was a bit inappropriate for me to do that, but I can't help it. You know, my appetite has been quite changeable recently."
The soft call of "husband", with a hint of grievance, was more seductive than usual, making Qin Yan's heart suddenly tighten and a tingling sensation flow through him.
His eyes darkened slightly, and then he looked at the plate on the table, "Can't eat anymore?"
"Um."
"Then I'll eat it." As he said that, he took the plate and directly picked up a piece of chopped steak and put it in his mouth.
It seemed that no one expected that he would do this.
Because people of their status, when they attend such banquets, they will not eat anything by default. To put it bluntly, this kind of place is a place to drink, talk and get to know people.
Who will come to eat?
But today, Qin Yan not only ate in front of everyone, but also ate what his wife had left.
What does this mean?
This shows that he really loves his wife!
Facing those surprised looks, Qin Yan simply raised his eyes slightly and said, "It tastes pretty good. Would you like to try it?"
After hearing his question, those who were stunned finally reacted and shook their heads and waved their hands.
"Tsk, Mr. Xiang, it seems that your arrangements today are not to everyone's liking." Seeing their reaction, Qin Yan clicked his tongue again.
Xiang Chuannan almost laughed.
This guy, in order to support his wife, is willing to drag his family into the water, right?
However, after glancing at Lu Yinyin and Zhao Yinglan beside him, he still smiled cooperatively and said, "It seems so. I wonder what everyone wants to eat? I'll have someone prepare it again!"
Everyone: “…”
Is this something I have to eat?
So, those who had just been shaking their heads quickly said, "No, no, I think these are good enough."
"Yeah, come to think of it, I'm hungry too. Let's go get something to eat."
"Ah, yes, me too!"
As they spoke, they went in groups of three or five to get food.
All the outsiders left at once.
Qin Yan simply sat next to his wife and ate slowly. If he found something delicious, he would ask Ning Xi if she wanted another bite.
Zhao Yinglan's eyes turned red with anger when she saw this scene. She simply stood up and walked away, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
Yin Ning also bit her lip, not understanding what it was about Ning Xi that the eldest young master of the Qin family saw in him?
However, Lu Yinyin was quite satisfied with how Qin Yan treated Ning Xi.
As for Madam Xiang, it goes without saying that Qin Yan protected Ning Xi like this, even if it hurt the Xiang family's face, she would still protect Ning Xi anyway.
The guests were almost all arrived and the atmosphere became lively. Mr. Xiang finally brought Mrs. Xiang to the front and said a few words. Then, Mrs. Xiang introduced Ning Xi to everyone in detail, officially announcing her identity to everyone.
Everyone thought that Qin Yan had just married an ordinary doctor, but now they realized that this was not just any doctor at all, but Madam Xiang's niece, a member of the Yin family in the imperial capital.
With this identity, everyone's attitude towards Ning Xi is naturally different.
Of course, there are also some who are dismissive.
Because Madam Xiang also made it clear that Ning Xi did not grow up in the Yin family, so without the Yin family's statement, she is not considered a member of the Yin family.
Therefore, those who knew several members of the Yin family couldn't help but look at their reactions.
Zhao Yinglan had already told Yin Xiaochen that her elder brother should not acknowledge Ning Xi's identity.
Not to mention that she is not worthy of the Yin family, just based on the fact that she slapped Yin Ning last time, there is no way they would admit that she is a member of the Yin family.
However, the moment Yin Xiaoguo stepped forward, her secretly proud expression froze on her face.
She looked at her uncle in disbelief.
"Xiao Lei is right. Ning Xi is our Yin family's child. We welcome her to return to live with us permanently..."
Listening to Yin Xiaoguo's words in front, Zhao Yinglan pulled Yin Xiaocheng's sleeve hard.
"What's going on? Didn't you tell your brother?"
Yin Xiaocheng looked back at her and said, "Xiao'an is back. Even if he doesn't admit it now, as soon as he wakes up, Ning Xi will still be a child of the Yin family."
If the matter gets out of hand, it will only bring greater shame to the Yin family.
Big brother would never do such a thing.
So Yin Xiaochen didn't say anything at all.
"But, isn't he still awake?"
"Xiaolei is here too. As long as Xiaolei admits it, no one can deny it." Yin Xiaochen said.
"What about our daughter? Was this slap in vain?" Zhao Yinglan was a little unconvinced.
Upon hearing this, Yin Xiaochen turned around and looked at her again.
There was scrutiny in his eyes.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Come to think of it, why did you suddenly come here this time? Didn't we agree to come together?" Yin Xiaochen looked at her and asked.
Zhao Yinglan's heart skipped a beat, and then she hurriedly said, "I'm just trying to help you share your worries. Didn't you hear that Xiao'an was back and rushed over to see him? But you couldn't leave because of work, so I came here for you."
"Then just focus on taking care of the patients and don't do anything unnecessary." Yin Xiaochen looked at her indifferently. Although his tone was calm, there was obviously a hint of warning in his words.
Zhao Yinglan opened her mouth, but was speechless.
In front, Ning Xi greeted everyone in a graceful and confident manner, then followed Qin Yan downstairs.
