The two of them: "......"!!
"How is that possible!" Qiao Yuqi's face turned pale. "How could Qiao Wanwan possibly marry someone from the Zhan family! What right does she have!"
"Whether she's qualified or not is up to you to decide." Zhan Yin said disdainfully, "Qiao Yuqi, only you treat Gu Xulin like a treasure. Look at Qiao Wanwan. She lost Gu Xulin one minute and found someone a million times better than him the next. That's real ability."
Qiao Wanwan frowned and looked at Zhan Yin calmly.
Qiao Yuqi was so angry that she was trembling all over!
Wang Chuning was stunned. "Brother Zhan Yin, we're relatives. You'll definitely help me and Yuqi, right?"
"I encounter at least eight or ten people like you who try to claim kinship every year. Do you know what happens to them?"
Wang Chuning subconsciously shook his head.
"The consequences aren't serious. The least serious one is that I just pierced the palm of their hand."
Wang Chuning felt a sharp pain in her palm and trembled in fright. "Brother Zhan Yin... Classmate Zhan Yin, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have bothered you. Yuqi, let's go!"
Before Qiao Yuqi could react, Wang Chuning pulled her outside.
But before he could take two steps, Zhan Yin's voice came from behind him, "Stop."
The two stopped in their tracks.
Zhan Yin said casually, "This is a place you can come and go as you please? You just humiliated my aunt, you should at least kneel down and apologize."
Qiao Yuqi froze!
Wang Chuning looked aggrieved. "Zhan, how could you do this? You were the one who sent me the address and told me to come here to find you!"
"I sent you, but I didn't tell you to go against my aunt. She's the lady of the house here. You'd better watch out or you'll regret it."
Qiao Yuqi turned around and sneered, "Zhan, even if the Qiao family doesn't meet your standards, the Gu family is still a respectable family. I don't believe you have no reason to be afraid of them. You want me to kneel down? Dream on!"
She left as soon as she finished speaking, and Wang Chuning immediately followed.
Zhan Yin didn't pursue the matter, looking on with a gossipy expression, "Qiao Wanwan, are you enjoying it?"
Qiao Wanwan turned to look at him, "What exactly do you want?"
"Nothing much. Aren't these the two people you hate the most? They came to me on their own, so I told them to come here to find me. This is a good opportunity for you to embarrass yourself. Shouldn't you thank me?"
"Who told you to meddle?" Qiao Wanwan said unhappily. "Zhan, I didn't want to involve Zhan Jingting in my business with Qiao Yuqi. But you've made a scene, and now we're involved even if we didn't want to."
"You think you're so high and mighty? Didn't you marry my uncle just for his money and status?"
Qiao Wanwan's face turned red with anger. "I didn't know his status or position when I married him!"
"You're kidding me." Zhan Yin scoffed. "If you didn't know his status and position, would you marry someone who's in a wheelchair?"
"I can't be bothered to talk to you. You can leave now, but don't bring these people to Wutong Bay again!"
"You dare to kick me out? Qiao Wanwan, you've got some nerve! You really think you're so great just because you're my aunt? Come back here and explain yourself!"
Qiao Wanwan ignored him and went straight upstairs.
......
Zhan Jingting didn't get home until late at night. When he entered the master bedroom, he saw a figure tossing and turning on the bed.
"Can't sleep?" Zhan Jingting maneuvered his wheelchair to the bedside. "Is it because of what happened this morning?"
Qiao Wanwan sat up. "You knew?"
“Aunt Zheng called to report to me that we just moved here yesterday and we don’t have enough staff yet. Plus, I didn’t expect Zhan Yin to be so bold as to bring people here to cause trouble. I will deal with him.”
"Never mind, I'm not really in any danger."
"Then why can't you sleep?"
"I don't know, I just feel a little uneasy."
"You probably didn't sleep well while I was away," Zhan Jingting said with a smile. "I'm going to take a shower and I'll be back to keep you company soon."
Qiao Wanwan quickly lay down and buried herself in the blankets.
After taking a shower, Zhan Jingting quickly lay down next to Qiao Wanwan and hugged her. "Sweetie, go to sleep."
"I can't sleep."
"Then tell me, why can't you sleep?"
"I don't know." Qiao Wanwan leaned against him and whispered, "Although Qiao Yuqi is very hypocritical, and I've only had one direct confrontation with her, I've never been afraid. But today, the way she looked at me made me feel uneasy for the first time..."
"With me here, she can't hurt you."
“It’s precisely because you’re here that she’s become even more insane,” Qiao Wanwan said earnestly. “She dreams of crushing me into the mud, otherwise why would she stoop so low as to seduce Gu Xulin? Now that she knows I married someone as rich and powerful as you, she’s probably going crazy.”
"Her madness is her business, it has nothing to do with us." Zhan Jingting cupped her face in his hands. "Wanwan, believe me, I won't let anyone hurt you. And Zhan Yin, he's no good. Stay away from him from now on, and I won't let him set foot in here again."
Qiao Wanwan asked in confusion, "Isn't he your nephew?"
"They're not as close as you think, but we shouldn't be talking about these unimportant people during such a precious time."
"So, what should we talk about?"
“Since you can’t sleep, Madam, we should do something meaningful, like…” The man didn’t finish his sentence, but instead kissed the corner of her lips.
"No..." Qiao Wanwan hurriedly stepped back and hid under the covers. "I'm sleepy, I want to sleep!"
The man chuckled softly, "If you're going to sleep, you have to go out to sleep. Don't suffocate."
"I like sleeping like this!"
