Qiao Wanwan forced a smile and said casually, "It's okay. You didn't rest well last night, so you should definitely get some more sleep today. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
"good."
Qiao Wanwan hung up the phone, and the smile on her face faded in an instant.
"Just say you're disappointed. That's a common problem with you girls. You don't say anything and make men guess."
"Stop talking nonsense. Who wants a man to guess?"
“But you’re just not happy about it.” Zhan Yin directly exposed, “You ran off as soon as school was over, and I couldn’t catch up with you. With your excited steps, anyone who didn’t know better would think you had won a 50 million lottery prize and were waiting to claim it.”
Qiao Wanwan: "......"
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
"Why would I lie to you?" Zhan Yin's lips twitched. "I only found out later when I saw you at the school gate that you were waiting for my uncle to pick you up. Do you like my uncle that much?"
“Of course,” Qiao Wanwan replied without hesitation. “If I didn’t like him, I wouldn’t accept him, nor would I marry him.”
"Love-obsessed!" Zhan Yin said disdainfully. "Don't blame me for not warning you, my uncle isn't as naive as you. You're too emotionally invested, and you'll easily get hurt."
"Pah! You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth!" Qiao Wanwan glared at him. "We have a very good relationship, and he won't hurt me."
"That's for the best. I was just trying to be helpful. You seem to be both sincere and enthusiastic."
Qiao Wanwan remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Zhan Yin, I understand what you mean, but don't worry, my heart isn't so easy to open. Zhan Jingting is a good person, otherwise I wouldn't like him so much. I have the determination and confidence to manage our marriage well."
Zhan Yin was inexplicably moved.
The flashy sports car drove into Wutong Bay. As Qiao Wanwan unbuckled her seatbelt, she said, "Thank you for bringing me back. Would you like to come in for dinner?"
Zhan Yin readily agreed, "Since you've invited me so warmly, I can't very well refuse. Let's go."
Qiao Wanwan: "......"
"I was just being polite!"
"I'm not going to be polite with you!"
When the two entered the house, Zhan Jingting was sitting in the living room working. Hearing footsteps, he looked up and asked, "You're back?"
"Hmm, have you rested well?"
"You've rested well." Zhan Jingting looked at Zhan Yin beside her. "Why are you here?"
"Qiao Wanwan invited me to dinner."
Zhan Jingting didn't say anything, looked away, and continued flipping through the documents.
Qiao Wanwan went upstairs to change her clothes, and when she came down, dinner was already prepared.
Zhan Yin ate with great relish, as if he had never eaten before.
"You didn't have lunch?" Qiao Wanwan asked, quite surprised. "Would you like to order two more dishes?"
"That's enough, that's enough. Your chef's cooking is delicious. I don't usually get to eat food with this level of skill."
"With your wealth, what kind of chef can't you find?"
"You're mistaken about that. There are some chefs that you can't hire even if you have the money. Otherwise, do you think I'd be starving to death?"
"Haha, you said it yourself!"
Zhan Jingting glanced at the two of them and said, "Don't joke around while we're eating."
"Oh." Qiao Wanwan put some food on his plate. "Eat more."
"Um."
Zhan Yin ate while watching them, then suddenly said, "Uncle, didn't you notice that Qiao Wanwan's face is injured?"
Qiao Wanwan was taken aback.
Zhan Jingting turned to look at the band-aid on Qiao Wanwan's face and asked, "What happened?"
"It's nothing, I just accidentally cut myself a little."
"It's good that you're alright. Be more careful next time."
"Um."
The topic quickly passed, but Qiao Wanwan felt a little down and her appetite decreased.
After dinner, Zhan Yin insisted on playing video games with Qiao Wanwan.
Qiao Wanwan couldn't refuse and played two games with him. When she turned around, she found that Zhan Jingting was gone.
"Aunt Zheng, where is Zhan Jingting?"
Zhan Yin pouted, "Qiao Wanwan, do you have obsessive-compulsive disorder? Why are you so clingy?"
"What do you know? This isn't clingy, it's basic care." Qiao Wanwan waved her hand. "It's normal that you don't understand since you've never been in a relationship."
"Pah! Who hasn't been in a relationship? The number of people who have pursued me could circle the earth twice, but I just don't like them."
“Madam,” Zheng Ma stepped forward and said, “Young Master just went out, saying he had official business to attend to.”
Qiao Wanwan was a little disappointed. "Why didn't he greet me?"
"Young master saw that you were having a great time playing the game, so he didn't greet you and asked me to tell you."
"Oh well."
"It's better that they've left, let's continue." Zhan Yin crossed his legs. "Aunt Zheng, go prepare some fruit and sugary drinks, Qiao Wanwan and I are going to have a final showdown tonight!"
Qiao Wanwan: "......"
Zheng's mother: "......"
“Young Master Yin, Madam is your aunt, you cannot address her by her given name directly.”
"Don't try to use the old rules of the Zhan family to restrain me. What era are we living in? I won't listen to that!"
Zheng Ma stubbornly insisted, "Without rules, there can be no order. If the young master hears this, he will be unhappy."
"Isn't he not here right now?"
Zheng's mother: "......"
"Aunt Zheng, don't mind him, go and prepare your things," Qiao Wanwan said.
Zheng Ma nodded helplessly, "Yes, Madam."
Qiao Wanwan's mind wasn't on the game, and she dragged Zhan Yin down several times, causing him to lose and making him so angry he almost vomited blood.
"Qiao Wanwan, what's wrong with you? Are you a terrible teammate?"
