Chapter 1692: Chapter 1693: Don’t Want to Disappoint Duidui Again

“You know that’s not what I meant. I meant you knew Xi would stay for dinner, so why make it like this and deliberately embarrass her. After all, she’s your sister.”

“Ha, did she tell you she’s my sister? No wonder she disgustingly called me brother just now.”

“Qin Jun! Do you have to make me angry?”

Chu Xi’s face flushed hotly, grasping Jiang Chenyue’s arm, pleading softly, “Mom, please don’t say anything, just let it go.”

“You don’t need to fan the flames here.”

Jiang Chenyue suppressed her anger, took a deep breath, held back, and split her steak, giving half to Chu Xi, “Xi, eat this.”

Chu Xi’s face was completely ruined by Qin Jun, she bit her lip tightly, lowered her head, and responded with a hum, not daring to say another word.

Aside from the little incident at the beginning, the rest of the meal was relatively peaceful.

The main reason was that both Jiang Chenyue and Qin Jun were mindful of Rong Yan’s feelings. Even though they were angry with each other, they tacitly ignored the unpleasantness and chatted with Rong Yan throughout.

…

After dinner, Rong Yan played for a while longer until it was time to leave.

Jiang Chenyue reluctantly escorted her to the door, still unwilling to let her go even as she got into the car.

“Yan, come over to play again when you have time in a few days. I didn’t know you’d come today, or I would have prepared more of the things you love. I don’t know if you liked tonight’s meal or if you got enough to eat.”

“Boss Qin’s cooking is very good, I’m full.”

“Of course, my cooking is something most people can’t enjoy. Only you have that special privilege.”

He stood tall beside Jiang Chenyue. Jiang Chenyue was not short, but standing next to him made her appear delicate, which showed how tall he was.

“Next time you want something, let me know a bit earlier, I’ll buy the ingredients and cook.”

Rong Yan, “…”

Even Jiang Chenyue couldn’t resist glancing at him a few more times, looking puzzled, as if doubting something but unable to ask directly and swallowing her suspicion back.

Qin Jun seemed oblivious to his strange actions, elegantly standing there, suddenly asking, “Did you come over for dinner because you had something to discuss with us today?”

Before Rong Yan could answer, he continued, “You declined my invitation to come by in the afternoon when I asked you for a drink, but not long after, you messaged saying you were free to come by. I guess you might have encountered some trouble.”

“Actually, it’s nothing.” She initially did have something to discuss with them, but after calming down, she felt it wasn’t necessary.

Mrs. Jiang was kind to her due to fate; she shouldn’t learn from some people to exploit this connection.

Qin Jun noticed her denial, his eyes darkened, already guessing, “Could it be that Chu Xi has been putting pressure on your company again?”

She didn’t say anything.

Jiang Chenyue looked over in shock, “Yan, is it true?”

“Hmph, could it be false? Even I know she’s been using the Chu Family’s background to intimidate other companies from cooperating with Bright recently. It’s not the first or second time she’s done this. Didn’t she orchestrate KT Entertainment to deliberately drop the press conference for Bright’s invested drama before?”

Even Jiang Chenyue was aware of the press conference incident, after hearing him say this, she believed it seventy to eighty percent, her face darkened, angrily saying, “I’ve warned her many times not to do these things!”

“If she listened, she wouldn’t be her.”

“I don’t know what she’s done this time, but even with just my toes I can tell she hasn’t done anything good.”

Jiang Chenyue’s expression turned grim, then she looked up at Rong Yan, “Leave this to me, I’ll handle it. Don’t worry, I’ll give you a satisfactory explanation.”

Rong Yan awkwardly waved her hand, “Mrs. Jiang, there’s really no need…”

Jiang Chenyue forced a smile, comforting her, “I don’t want to disappoint Duidui again.”
