Chapter 591 - Acting Skills

‘We understood. No wonder they were so calm.
I frowned and asked him, “Why is Mr. President so calm?”
Since the matter had been blown up, why didn’t the President come forward?
“Oh right. What about the President?” Mai Qi had just remembered this important person.
Jing Tian said indifferently, “He has already lost the best opportunity to reconcile. If he had come out to meet us when we were at his house, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.”
‘We were all stunned.
“Are you saying that he was at home when we went to visit?” I asked Jing Tian.
Jing Tian nodded with a mocking smile on his lips. However, his gaze was ice-cold. “It was clear from the way Aunt Zhi acted. She was putting on the show for the President, trying to convince him that she was qualified to be his wife.
“At the time, if he had shown up to greet us, we would have given him face. However, he was too selfish. He didn’t even say something when Angel came to cause the scene. He wanted to see our bottom line.”
I thought about it for a moment. It was true that Xiao Zhi was acting strangely. However, it could be quite reasonable when viewed from another person’s perspective.
From An Lin’s point of view, Xiao Zhi was the perfect stepmother for Angel. She was understanding of Angel and tried to shield her from the monster that was me.
Such good acting!
“Lhave no bottom line,” I said lightly.
Mai Qi laughed loudly and reached out her hand to give me a high five. “Well said, Nanxing!”
Jing Tian reached out his hand and ruffled my hair as he laughed.
I was stunned. How could I have such good luck to find this man?
“What will happen next?” I asked him. I unconsciously relied on him.
“We will wait and see,” he said indifferently. I loved his calm appearance.
I felt a myriad of emotions surging up in my heart, and I felt an unprecedented sense of security.
Jing Ni asked hesitantly, “Seventh uncle, will this affect your relationship with the family? After all, the Madam President is Grandma Lan’s sister.”
Only now did I remember this layer of the relationship, and I couldn’t help but feel guilty. I only cared about myself, and I had never thought about Jing Tian.
However, Jing Tian replied, “It’s fine. Aunt Zhi, you saw earlier, was not the real her. You always talk about benefits with Aunt Zhi. Remember that.”
‘We looked at each other in confusion.
Jing Tian didn’t explain further. “What do you want to eat tonight? Or do you want me to make the arrangements? Nanxing, would you like to try some of your favorite dishes in the past?”
I readily agreed.
Our dinner hadn’t even started when my little uncle came over.
Looking at his relaxed appearance, I knew that the result was similar to the one Jing Tian predicted.
I couldn’t help but shake my head. It was too unchallenging.
‘As soon as I returned home, I saw that the living room was filled with gifts. Daisy said that Kong Yun had come over.
‘The two madam presidents used completely different methods. They were quite interesting.
“Little aunt, I’ll leave this level of social interaction to the respected elders like you! Young girls like Jing Ni and me won’t be involved.” I turned around and smiled at Mai Qi.
Mai Qi was stunned for a moment. “Nanxing…”
Tasked in surprise, “What’s wrong?”
Tears flashed in Mai Qi’s eyes. “You finally talk to me like you used to…” She smiled and patted her chest. “Of course, you can leave this to me. This is the chance to squeeze her dry.. Do you think I’ll let that slip away?”
