Chapter 5479: Chapter 5479: Intimate
She didn’t sympathize with Madam Xiao, after all, everyone had to bear the consequences of their own actions. If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? Since you made such a decision, why still think about regretting and seeking forgiveness?
Continuing like this was not a solution.
"Let others say what they want, I really don’t mind these things," Xia Jinyuan said, "The things she did back then are already well known, and she wants to use filial piety to pressure me, but the Xia family will not agree to it."
"Madam Li, she will definitely talk. Her reason for doing this is very simple, to use Madam Xiao to test your position in my heart and in the Xia family."
"Madam Li is most skilled at using others to do her dirty work, and Madam Xiao...," Xia Jinyuan spoke and suddenly laughed, "Madam Xiao is not simple either. She knows full well that Madam Li has ulterior motives, yet she continues to associate with her, simply because she needs to get news about me and the Xia family from Madam Li."
"Madam Li thinks she’s manipulating Madam Xiao throughout, but little does she know, she has been used by Madam Xiao all along. After all, the only people she knows who have any connection to our family are from the Li family."
"If she can’t continue her relationship with the Li family, then Madam Xiao would have to start over and get to know other people who have connections with the Xia family."
"For her, that would be too troublesome, better to continue her relationship with Madam Li. Madam Xiao is quite something, you see..." Xia Jinyuan finished speaking and suddenly leaned in to kiss Ye Jian, "You, in front of these ladies, are only playing into their hands with your naïveté. Don’t underestimate Madam Xiao, although the troubles won’t end, she won’t tarnish the Xia family’s reputation publicly."
"Just now, there was a lady, the wife of the CEO of Limin Group. Madam Xiao didn’t know her in the past, but now they’re close, it’s clear that Madam Xiao is still leveraging our family’s reputation to her advantage."
"Don’t worry, silly girl, she won’t damage the Xia family’s reputation. Stop thinking about it, I’ll handle it. Be good." He stroked her head, as Xia Jinyuan didn’t want these trivial matters to upset his girlfriend.
"Okay," Ye Jian responded, and did not bring up the matter again, treating it as a minor incident.
"Let’s go, let’s go shopping," Xia Jinyuan said, taking Ye Jian’s hand.
He didn’t want to think about Madam Xiao anymore. Instead of dwelling on that, it was better to think about what clothes to buy for his girlfriend later, or what kind of gift to pick for Old Man Xia when they visited during the New Year.
"What are we shopping for?" Ye Jian asked with a smile, following his conversation, "After buying, there’s hardly a chance to wear them."
"First, I need to buy you a few outfits, so that when you visit the Xia family, the grandparents don’t say I didn’t dress their granddaughter-in-law prettily," Xia Jinyuan said, "And also to pick what kind of gift to bring to your family when visiting during the New Year."
"You’re usually not this formal," Ye Jian laughed, her eyes curving into crescents.
"It’s also to help you make a good impression," Xia Jinyuan said with a light laugh.
In the army, they always wore uniforms. Although Ye Jian looked good in anything, now that they had the chance, it was still better to let her dress up like an ordinary girl.
Upon entering the store, Xia Jinyuan immediately spotted a dress hanging on the rack. Its form-fitting design would beautifully highlight the wearer’s graceful figure, and he could already imagine what Ye Jian would look like standing in front of him in that dress.
