Fan Hongshan’s face was reddened and agitated.
She really hadn’t expected Yan Jinxian to dare such an outrageous act! It was simply... bringing shame not only upon herself but onto another’s rightful wife!
Afraid that Yan Jinsu would truly become angry and cause a reckless commotion, embarrassing both families, she hastily tried to guide the pregnant woman back to her seat.
With Xie Jingzi present, her discomfort eased.
Yet, unexpectedly, when Xie Jingchen sensed his beloved wife’s change of expression, his own face darkened and he immediately stood up, saying "Excuse me, I must leave for a moment," and hurriedly left the table.
Zhou Zhenghui, seeing this, felt a tingling sensation on his scalp and ceased his conversation, his gaze first darting to his little woman who remained safely in her spot, maintaining a light smile while accompanying the elders and guests.
Once assured she was unharmed, his eyes swiftly followed Xie Jingchen’s steps. Before he could fully grasp the Third Sister-in-law’s situation, he saw that the wife of his cousin Zhou Yizhou was in trouble!
Xie Jingchen, a special forces soldier, how could he be easily plotted against?
He deftly sidestepped the approaching crowd, avoiding being ’accidentally’ crashed into by the well-prepared Yan Jinxian, which also involved an unwitting maid who nearly smashed a tray of expensive foreign wine. Fortunately, Xie Jingchen’s quick reflexes saved the day by steadying the server’s shoulders.
"Hmph." Seeing her man skillfully dodge Yan Jinxian’s ’unintentional’ move, she uttered a soft, cold sound.
Fan Hongshan clenched her fists, let out a heavy breath, and exclaimed in a low, startled whisper, the longer the sound dragged on, the worse her mood was indicated to be.
Yan Jinxian, failing to meet her own expectations, could only flash an embarrassed smile at Xie Jingchen, and coquettishly said, "Brother-in-law, I’m sorry, it’s my fault for being in such a rush, I didn’t notice what was ahead~"
As she spoke, her beautiful eyes glanced at the male server, who was also visibly shaken, his hands trembling as he held the tray of wine. In order to maintain her image, she had to suppress her irritation and glare at the back of the server who was dismissed, before returning her attention to Xie Jingchen to draw his interest.
Sadly for her, Xie Jingchen completely ignored her presence, and after confirming the server was alright, he immediately went to his beloved wife. As for Yan Jinxian’s words?
Heh, who was her brother-in-law? How shameless, to even dare to call his wife ’Sister’?
Tsk, old witch.
Yan Jinsu couldn’t hear Yan Jinxian’s voice as Yan Jinxian had deliberately spoken very softly, wanting others to sense a subtle flirtation between them.
But Yan Jinsu knew how to read lips, and after ’understanding’ Yan Jinxian’s words, she blurted out a curse: "Eh~ truly shameless!"
Fan Hongshan did not hear Fan Hongshan’s words, but such behavior from her sister-in-law could indeed be summarized by these four words, and so with a face turning dark purple in anger, she nodded in agreement, "Right, truly a shameless stench!"
In any era, no one would like a ’worn-out shoe’ who indulges in being a mistress!
