Grandma Xi looked at Su Jin’s blur face and found it funny. This girl was actually able to eat in peace. She was no ordinary person. If it were anyone else, they would have run away by now. She said flatly,
“Alright, let’s eat first. Everyone is hungry. We can talk after we finish dinner.”
Su Jin nodded quickly when she heard this. She was already hungry and could not wait to have a good meal. She put down the apple, saw the delicious food on the dining table, and quickly walked over.
Xi Chenxiao was depressed. This girl actually abandoned him for food? What a useless wife she was! Why not just divorce her? It’s too embarrassing.
Grandpa Xi saw Su Jin rushing towards the table and his face was filled with displeasure. Then, he saw the embarrassed Xi Chenxiao and sneered. This is the good wife he married? He mocked,
“This is your wife? She only knows how to eat, completely ignoring you.”
When Grandma Xi saw Su Jin rushing towards the dining table, she let go of Shangguan Ting’er and motioned for her to go with Xi Chenxiao. This was a good opportunity. She then rolled her eyes at Grandpa Xi and commented,
“You’re so old already and yet you act like a child. Let’s just go and have dinner!”
Shangguan Ting’er got Grandma Xi’s hint. How could she not understand? She also knew that this was her chance. She could not be as insensible as that idiotic girl. She walked up to Xi Chenxiao and said considerately,
“Brother Xiao, let’s go have dinner too!”
Xi Chenxiao was about to refuse, but when he saw Su Jin walking back, he immediately thought about revenge. Since the girl abandoned him for food, then he would provoke her a little. He nodded expressionlessly.
When Shangguan Ting’er saw Xi Chenxiao’s agreement, she was very happy. She would let Xi Chenxiao know today that she was the best match for him. She came to Xi Chenxiao’s side, wanting to grab his arm to claim sovereignty.
However, Su Jin came up and pushed Shangguan Ting’er away. She then grabbed Xi Chenxiao’s arm and claimed her man. She took out her phone and typed quickly. Text-to-voice sounded,
“Hubby, let’s go eat.”
No matter what, Xi Chenxiao was her man now. She absolutely would not let other women court him. The coquettish voice on the phone made everyone shudder, goosebumps popping out all over their bodies.
Even though Xi Chenxiao’s face was cold and expressionless, he felt as sweet as honey. There was an inexplicable joy as he nodded and brought Su Jin to the dining table, ignoring Shangguan Ting’er.
Jealousy and anger flashed in Shangguan Ting’er’s eyes. If it was not for this good-for-nothing mute, she would be the one holding Xi Chenxiao’s arm right now. She should have been the one married to him!
There was a rule at the Xi family’s dining table, and that was to eat without speaking. No one should speak while eating, so everyone ate quietly without a word. This rule had been passed down from generation to generation in the Xi family.
However, Xi Chenxiao did something unbelievable. He had always been cold-blooded and heartless, but he had taken some dishes and put them on Su Jin’s plate. He was especially careful when removing the fish bones, giving her only boneless fish. It was simply unbelievable.
Shangguan Ting’er almost snapped her chopsticks when she saw Xi Chenxiao’s behavior. This should have been a treatment only for her, but now it had all become that piece of trash’s. If she had known this, she would not have gone overseas to study.
Grandma Xi looked at Su Jin with a complicated expression when she saw this. Her eyes were filled with joy. This girl was quite amazing. She was actually able to make this cold-blooded and heartless guy become more human. It was all well.
No matter what, she was Xi Chenxiao’s grandmother. Naturally, she hoped that Xi Chenxiao would live a better life and not be like a machine. Humans should be humane and benevolent, not cold-blooded and heartless.
After dinner, Shangguan Ting’er realized that there was nothing she could do to reverse the situation. She left unwillingly with grievance. Xi Chenxiao and Su Jin chatted with the old couple for a while before they prepared to leave for their own manor.
No matter how Grandpa Xi looked at Su Jin, he did not like her. He felt that Su Jin was not as good as Shangguan Ting’er in any aspect. However, when Xi Chenxiao had decided on something, very few people could change his mind. It was already very late so he said in a commanding tone,
“It’s already very late. Why don’t both of you stay here for the night and go home tomorrow?”
