Lin Wanwan kept sobbing: "Grandpa, I..."
Seeing that she was so wronged, Mr. Zhan directed his anger at Bai Xingyi, who was not related by blood, and scolded: "You are the same, you don't even know how to coax her, you are not young anymore."
Bai Xingyi blinked innocently. She wasn't the one who made him cry. How could she comfort him?
When Mr. Zhan spoke, she did not dare to refute. She had no choice but to explain for herself: "Grandpa, I didn't make her cry."
She was not the culprit, so she naturally didn't want to take the blame. Before Zhan Shaoting walked out of the room, Lin Wanwan was fine. If she guessed correctly, Lin Wanwan cried because of Zhan Shaoting's words.
Mr. Zhan was doubtful and looked at Zhan Shaoting with a straight face.
"what happened?"
Lin Wanwan originally suppressed her crying a little, but when she saw that the old man didn't attack, she felt twisted in her heart for a moment, and choked up: "Grandpa, it's not Miss Jiu's fault, it's all my fault for being too sensitive."
Bai Xingyi frowned, what did Lin Wanwan mean by this?
It seems that he is speaking for her, but in fact he is causing trouble.
Could it be that he couldn't bear to be scolded by Zhan Shaoting and threw her out to vent his anger.
Mr. Zhan realized something from Lin Wanwan's words, and his eyes darkened, "Grandpa knows you are a good boy. It must be Xingyi's ignorance that made you misunderstand something. It's time to teach her the rules again."
Bai Xingyi was speechless. She had expected that the old man would stand next to Lin Wanwan, but she didn't expect that he would point the finger at her with just one sentence before he even heard what happened.
Her scalp was numb and she didn't know how to explain: "My...Grandpa, that's not the case."
Bai Xingyi couldn't directly say that Zhan Shaoting was responsible for the incident, and she didn't know what Lin Wanwan was thinking, so she didn't explain a word.
Zhan Shaoting saw Bai Xingyi in trouble and coughed to attract her attention.
Bai Xingyi looked sideways at each other, their eyes facing each other. She could tell that the man wanted her to ask him for help, but she refused and straightened her spine stubbornly.
When Mr. Zhan saw her and Zhan Shaoting flirting with each other, his face was slightly angry: "Bai Xingyi!"
When his name was called, Bai Xingyi's heart trembled.
"grandfather……"
"Don't call me grandpa, I don't have a granddaughter." Mr. Zhan straightened his mouth and scolded: "There will be no next time, otherwise, get out of Zhan's house!"
This loud shout scared Lin Wan to stop crying.
Bai Xingyi lowered his head and clenched his fingers.
The atmosphere was so depressed that the members of the Zhan family who heard the news did not dare to say a word, for fear of taking Mr. Zhan's anger on themselves and reducing their presence.
Zhan Shaoting spoke appropriately: "Grandpa, it's not worth being so angry that your body is so angry. It's time to eat."
He helped the old man sit on the main seat, and the matter ended unpleasantly.
Bai Xingyi followed at the end. After such a commotion, her life in the Zhan family would probably be even more difficult, and it would even affect her aunt and Liu Qingli, and her heart suddenly became cold.
Lin Wanwan glanced at Bai Xingyi proudly. Thinking of the lesson she had just received, she felt secretly happy. She also felt a little overwhelmed at the dinner table, "Shaoting, I want to eat that boiled prawn. You can peel it for me."
Before Zhan Shaoting made any move, Mr. Zhan said displeasedly: "Don't talk when you eat or sleep. Didn't you have someone in the Lin family to teach you this rule?"
After all, his mood was affected by what happened just now, and he was not so good-tempered towards Lin Wanwan.
Lin Wanwan looked into Mr. Zhan's eyes and apologized quickly.
"I'm sorry, Grandpa, I won't do it again."
Mr. Zhan saw that she knew she was wrong and did not continue to attack. He waved his hand casually and said, "Okay, as long as you know your mistake and can correct it, remember it next time you come to eat."
This is an etiquette that every lady should know.
Lin Wanwan quickly nodded her head obediently, but when she lowered her head, her slender fingers squeezed the chopsticks tightly. Being taught a lesson in front of so many people, I lost all my dignity.
Moreover, no one reminded her.
She silently glanced around, her eyes finally fixed on Bai Xingyi, and couldn't help but think about how he would laugh at her in his heart.
Bai Xingyi didn't know what she was thinking, eating rice was like chewing wax. Just now, it was clearly not her fault but she was offended innocently. Now that Lin Wanwan was wrong, the old man just reminded her without saying a single extra word.
Don't be too obvious about double standards.
She poked at the rice uncomfortably.
On the other side, Zhan Shaoting calmly peeled a large shrimp for Lin Wanwan and put it in her bowl.
Lin Wanwan looked overjoyed.
Bai Xingyi saw it inadvertently, his eyes were so sore that he couldn't help but lowered his head in a panic to hold back, so as not to let others notice the strangeness.
The dinner was very long. Bai Xingyi did not dare to leave first, for fear of angering the old man again, so she could only wait until the crowd dispersed before getting up. Liu Qingli suddenly grabbed her hand.
"Don't go back to your little apartment tonight, stay here."
Bai Xingyi was reluctant, "I just made grandpa angry, so I won't dazzle him anymore. You should go to bed early."
Liu Qingli insisted: "Listen to me and stay. I have to be busy with other things now. I have some things to ask you in the evening. I'll leave tomorrow."
She still wanted to shirk it, but there was a sudden cramp in her stomach. It might be because she had eaten bad food, and it hurt whenever she moved.
Helpless, she could only nod, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Only then did Liu Qingli go upstairs with confidence.
Bai Xingyi saw that there were too many people in the living room to get the medicine box, so he simply went back to the room and rummaged through the cabinets to find stomach medicine, but there was none. He could only endure the pain for the time being and drink some hot water to relieve it.
As time passed, Bai Xingyi estimated that there was no one in the living room, so he thought about going down to get medicine in case he needed it. When he came downstairs, he bumped into Zhan Shaoting.
Seeing the man, for some reason, Bai Xingyi's hidden grievance reached its peak at this moment. Just as she was about to ask why she didn't explain in the afternoon, the man walked past her mercilessly, without any intention of staying.
Bai Xingyi stopped what he was about to say that was stuck in his throat. The smell of smoke rushed into his nose, and his stomach suddenly turned. He covered his mouth and ran out.
"vomit……"
The woman's vomiting sound stopped Zhan Shaoting's steps. He twitched the corners of his mouth sarcastically, suddenly turned around and walked over, pulling the bent Bai Xingyi into his arms.
"You hate me so much?"
There was a faint smell of smoke in Zhan Shaoting's breath.
Bai Xingyi couldn't hold it back and vomited again. Zhan Shaoting's face turned darker than before, as if ink could drip out at any time. He forcefully raised the woman's chin to make her look at him.
"Bai Xingyi, what do you mean?"
Bai Xingyi closed his eyes, feeling terribly uncomfortable, "It's not interesting."
"It doesn't make sense for you to make this happen with me!"
"Then just take it as what you think." Bai Xingyi admitted weakly, knowing that the other party wouldn't listen to what she said and didn't want to argue.
Zhan Shaoting consciously guessed correctly: "Are you referring to what the old man scolded you just now? I gave you a look and asked you to ask me for help. You know, as long as you speak or make a gesture, I will help you out. "
