Good Relationship

"Jing Rui, you've just arrived and you want to snatch the meat from the Li family? Aren't you being too anxious? It's not a good thing to become enemies with the Li family so quickly. I advise you to take it slow," Wan Feng suddenly said at the dining table.

Hearing this, Xia Chenxing was shocked. So this man was competing with the Li family? Who was he? He actually wanted to compete with the Li family as soon as he returned to the country. Where did he get the capital? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Li Ruixu a few more times. The man was very calm and his expression did not change at all. He replied calmly, "Brother Wan, don't worry. I know what I should do. I already have a plan for this."

She didn't know if it was intentional, but when the man finished speaking, his eyes were locked on Xia Chenxing, and there was a hint of a smile on his lips. Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked away from him. She didn't understand what the man was thinking. He knew she was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Li family, but he had to bring these things up in front of her. Did he think she didn't exist? Or did he think it didn't matter if she knew? No one in the Li family would believe her? His plan wouldn't be affected in any case? Wasn't he afraid of being slapped in the face later?

At this moment, Li Ruixu suddenly sneezed. Mrs. Wan quickly asked with concern, "Jing Rui, do you have a cold? Do you need some medicine?"

Li Ruixu's face was as green as ever, and he still looked cold. He said, "It's not a cold. Someone is probably cursing me in his heart."

Xia Chenxing glared at him without batting an eyelid. Then, with a smile, she picked up a large piece of ginger from the dish and stuffed it onto Li Ruixu's plate. She said, "Mr. Jing is still so funny. You believe such lies to deceive children? I think you must have caught a cold. Hurry up and eat some ginger. Ginger can drive away the cold. You'll be fine tomorrow after eating it."

Xia Chenxing was not really concerned about him. She had just noticed that the man would deliberately pick out the ginger from the dishes before putting it into his mouth. She was sure that this man definitely did not like ginger, so she deliberately found a large piece of ginger and sent it to his bowl in the name of concern. If he did not eat it, he would be rude. If he ate it, he would feel terrible.

Xia Chenxing blinked innocently and looked at him with her big bright eyes. She said, "Honestly, Mr. Jing, I think a piece of ginger has limited use. You should eat more." With that, she picked up several pieces of ginger and handed them to him.

Mrs. Wan said in realization, "That's right. I also heard that ginger slices can ward off the cold and are good for the body. Mr. Jing, look at how concerned Chenxing is about you. It seems that your relationship is quite good."

Hearing this, Xia Chenxing almost spat out the rice in her mouth. Mrs. Wan's imagination was really good. Was this how they got along? However, it was quite interesting to see the man's complicated expression when he looked at the few pieces of ginger in the bowl.

But soon, Xia Chenxing realized that she was wrong. The man actually picked up a spoonful of ginger and stuffed it into his mouth to chew. His expression was as natural as eating meat.

Xia Chenxing was shocked. She wondered if she was hallucinating. The man didn't seem to hate ginger. What was going on?

Not only that, but the man finished all the ginger slices in the bowl without changing his expression. Then, he slowly looked up with an ambiguous glint in his eyes and said, "So ginger is also a delicacy. Although it's a little spicy, the taste is unique. It tastes very special and is good for the body. Looks like I should enrich my taste buds in the future. I should try everything."

It sounded very normal, but for some reason, Xia Chenxing felt that it was extremely ambiguous. She wondered if she was thinking too much.

Mrs. Wan did not think too much about it and said with a smile, "Mr. Jing is right. It's always good to try more."

Xia Chenxing, who was eating, felt very uncomfortable. After eating, she planned to quickly say goodbye and leave. At this moment, Mrs. Wan said, "Jing Rui, it's a little late. It's not safe for a girl like Chenxing to drive alone."

Xia Chenxing quickly waved her hand and refused. "Mrs. Wan, there's no need to trouble Mr. Jing. I drove here."

"Oh, I see…" said Mrs. Wan, slightly disappointed.

Hearing this, Li Ruixu said, "I just had a drink and can't drive. In that case, I'll have to trouble Miss Xia to give me a ride. We're neighbors anyway."

Mrs. Wan perked up and quickly said, "That's right. Look at my memory. I forgot that Mr. Jing can't drive when he drinks. You two are neighbors. You can go home together."

Xia Chenxing was speechless. Had she been tricked? Xia Chenxing's expression was very baffled.
