Chapter 53: Approaching and Showing Favor

After hearing Leng Chuanjin's answer, the tension in Xia Sanghuan's heart suddenly dissipated.

"As long as it's okay. Brother, have more."

Hearing this, Leng Chuanjin looked up at Xia Sanghuan.

Xia Sanghuan was also wearing home clothes. The good care in recent days had made her skin much fairer.

From his perspective, Xia Sanghuan's figure was slender and petite, which inevitably aroused a bit of pity.

The two were sitting opposite each other at the dining table.

While tasting Xia Sanghuan's cooking, Xia Anying and Leng Wanqing returned home after a shopping spree.

When Xia Anying saw the two sitting opposite each other at the dining table, her speculation and jealousy grew like budding bamboo shoots.

She had sensed something was wrong when Xia Sanghuan and Leng Chuanjin returned home from outside the other day.

Now it seemed that something must have happened between these two during the days they were out.

After having this thought, Xia Anying's jealous face was a bit distorted.

Why did so many outstanding men all revolve around Xia Sanghuan, and the prosperous and wealthy life also belonged to her?

Clearly, for the first eighteen years, Xia Sanghuan had been just like a country girl like her!

Especially Leng Chuanjin!

The moment Xia Anying saw this man, she was attracted to him.

She would never allow the man she liked to have any connection with Xia Sanghuan!

After taking a few deep breaths behind Leng Wanqing, Xia Anying managed to control her expression and followed her into the Leng family's house.

"Brother! We're back!"

Leng Wanqing told Xia Anying to put the big and small bags in her cloakroom, then she sat down at the dining table and casually picked up a small cake.

"Spit, spit, spit. Is this the afternoon tea made at home? After being away from home for so long, the chef's skills have regressed so obviously. How can anyone eat this?"

Leng Wanqing did it on purpose. Seeing the apron that Xia Sanghuan hadn't had time to take off, she deliberately humiliated her.

This little scheme was naturally exposed in front of Leng Chuanjin, but he was more interested in how Xia Sanghuan would answer Leng Wanqing.

"Miss Leng, I made today's afternoon tea."

"Although it may not suit your taste, no host would blatantly satirize a guest's cooking skills in front of the guest."

Xia Sanghuan looked coldly at Leng Wanqing who was deliberately looking for trouble. Her eyebrows were slightly lowered but somehow there was a bit of sharpness.

"Right. Miss Leng has always thought I'm from the countryside and has never objectively evaluated things related to me."

Leng Wanqing didn't expect Xia Sanghuan to directly point out her intention.

Noticing Leng Chuanjin's playful look beside her, Leng Wanqing's face flushed.

"You! Xia Sanghuan, just you wait!"

After throwing down this angry sentence, Leng Wanqing turned around and left, going back to her room on the second floor.

When Xia Anying was absent - mindedly organizing Leng Wanqing's clothes in the cloakroom, seeing her rush into the room with a slightly red face because of anger, she curiously got closer.

"Wanqing, what's wrong with you? Did my sister annoy you again?"

"If it's really Huanhuan who annoyed you, I'll apologize to you on her behalf."

Xia Anying's humble attitude was like adding fuel to the fire in front of Leng Wanqing at this moment.

"You apologize to me on her behalf? It wasn't you who annoyed me and embarrassed me. Why should it be you?"

"That country girl Xia Sanghuan always opposes me in everything!"

"Whether it's my brother or my mother, they've all been partial to her for goodness knows how long!"

After rolling her eyes at Xia Anying, Leng Wanqing angrily complained to her.

"Not only about the thing just now when Huanhuan annoyed you, Wanqing, I also have something else to apologize to you for on Huanhuan's behalf."

Before Leng Wanqing showed any obvious reaction, Xia Anying's eyes were already filled with tears.

"Wanqing, I know it's already very troublesome for me and Huanhuan to stay at your house, but I didn't expect Huanhuan to do such a thing."

"Since Huanhuan and Young Master Leng returned home from outside the other day, Huanhuan's attitude has obviously changed, and she even seems to act like the hostess."

"Although the Fu and Leng families are family friends, Huanhuan shouldn't have any wrong ideas about your brother!"

"I didn't discipline my sister well, so I have to apologize to you on her behalf."

Xia Anying pretended to show weakness in front of Leng Wanqing, and as expected, it aroused Leng Wanqing's indignation.

"No wonder! No wonder that Xia Sanghuan never made afternoon tea on weekdays. Now that you and I went out shopping, she made this afternoon tea for my brother to taste."

"So she has such a dirty thought!"

"Anying, don't worry! I will definitely solve this matter!"

And Xia Anying showed the appearance of a considerate elder sister and stopped Leng Wanqing's action.

"Wanqing, if Xia Sanghuan complains to your brother, the situation for you and me will only be worse."

"All we need to do now is to get Xia Sanghuan to leave the Leng family. Why cause a conflict between you and your brother?"

Xia Anying's thoughtfulness added another point in Leng Wanqing's heart.

But Leng Wanqing didn't show it. She just pondered in her heart how to play tricks on Xia Sanghuan.

The next day, when Leng Wanqing appeared beside Xia Sanghuan with a smiling face, it caught the attention of Wang Fu and Leng Chuanjin.

"Huanhuan, I thought seriously last night and realized that our previous relationship was really a bit confrontational."

"Our two families are family friends, and you are a distinguished guest of the Leng family. My attitude was really bad."

"Now I've come to my senses. After breakfast, would you like to go shopping with me?"

"Just consider it my apology for my ignorance in the previous period!"

Looking at Leng Wanqing holding her arm, Xia Sanghuan instinctively sensed that she wasn't that kind - hearted.

"I today..."

Just as she was about to refuse, Leng Wanqing's words blocked her refusal.

"I know, Huanhuan must not be so petty and will definitely agree to me!"

Looking at Leng Wanqing's sly look, Xia Sanghuan raised her eyebrows and agreed.

She was going to see what kind of tricks these two were playing.

After breakfast, Leng Wanqing took Xia Sanghuan to CJ without any explanation and waved her hand.

"Huanhuan, you can pick whatever you like today. It'll all be charged to my account!"

Although she didn't know what Leng Wanqing's purpose was, Xia Sanghuan still followed behind Leng Wanqing and Xia Anying with her arms crossed, watching them constantly pick out items for her.

"This dress suits Huanhuan. Wrap it up!"

"And this bracelet, too! Over there, over there, wrap them all up!"

Before long, the men following behind Leng Wanqing were covered with big and small bags.

"Let's go. These should be enough for today. Let's go and pay the bill!"

As Leng Wanqing said, she winked at Xia Anying.
