Chapter 209

Passing through the entrance, slender fingers gently caressed the famous paintings on the wall, and then lowered her head to sniff the roses in the vase. Jian Jia's red lips curled up, revealing a satisfied smile. .

The so-called happy eyebrows are nothing more than that.

After being seated in a hurry, Aunt Chen led a group of servants to bring up the delicacies and a bottle of [-] Buffy red wine for her enjoyment.

Jian Xi was still sitting diagonally across from Chi Jinnian, picking up the knife and fork pretending to be calm, but his hands kept shaking.

It was all Jian Jia's fault. The sudden news of this kind of news frightened her a lot.

Of course, Jian Xi knew what she was worried about, she was the granddaughter of Xue's parents, and now she wanted to add incense to the Chi family, two at a time, and Chi Jinnian didn't know how to get used to Jian Jia.

That means that Jianxi's life will be difficult.

Staring blankly at Jian Jia who was sitting across from him, he was cutting up the steak with a knife and fork, but he couldn't cut it open.

It's really unlucky that when you drink cold water, your teeth will be stuck, and even a mere steak will be against her.

She didn't believe it anymore, Jian Xi still didn't bow her head, and increased the strength in her hands.

Chi Yichen on the side finally couldn't stand it any longer, and put his thin lips to her ear to remind her, "You took your fork and my fork, and you held it backwards."

After his reminder, Jian Xi just woke up like a dream, and looked down—holding two upside-down forks and sinking into the meat, it looked quite ridiculous.

Jian Xi blushed immediately, looked left and right, and made sure that no one saw it, so she was relieved, and quickly turned the fork back to Chi Yichen, but he was still disgusted by him.

"Today is really a good day, Jian Jia, you have to be careful this time, don't tire yourself out." Chi Jinnian picked up the goblet, touched Jian Jia's glass filled with fruit juice, and smiled kind.

Although I don't like this granddaughter-in-law, but since she is pregnant, everything is easy to talk about.

At the thought that he would suddenly have two great-grandchildren, old man Chi couldn't help but beam with joy, smiling until the wrinkles on his face piled up, and he lost his usual majesty.

The so-called mother is more expensive than a child. After Jian Jia became pregnant, she immediately turned from the furthest to sit face to face with Jian Xi, while Chi Qingfeng and Chi Zhaoye could only sit in the back with aggrievedness. Chi Qingfeng didn't say anything, after all, Daughter-in-law and son.

It's just that Chi Zhaoye was a little impatient, raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled mockingly, "I really don't know who refused to marry at the beginning, but now she can be pregnant with twins. It can be seen that some people His body is still quite honest."

"Shut up." Chi Jinnian snapped, his eyes narrowed sharply, and the air was filled with a dangerous atmosphere.

Helping Jian Jia to speak in this way, it is clear at a glance how high her status is.

It's over, there won't be a good life now, Jian Xi patted her chest, unable to eat, even though she didn't want Jian Jia to have a chance to laugh at her, she still pouted out of frustration.

Jian Jia has been pregnant for two months. She said it lightly. In fact, she didn't know how much energy she spent trying various drugs, and she almost didn't try IVF.

She knew very well that Chi Jinnian's attitude would change as long as she was pregnant with a child.

The name of Xue's parent's granddaughter was not enough at all, Chi Jinnian still didn't buy it, and later even Chi Tianyou was unwilling to listen to her, so in desperation, she could only use this method to improve her status.

Although the doctor said, if she fails to give birth again this time, she probably won't be able to conceive in the future...

Hiding the haze under her eyes, Jian Jia raised her eyes, her heavy makeup couldn't hide her pride, "Jian Xi, is there something on my face? Otherwise, why do you keep looking at me?"

Pooh, who is watching her all the time, she is clearly concentrating on eating, okay?
The knife and fork were scratching on the plate, and Jian Xi's eyes were fixed on Jian Jia. If it wasn't because she knew where the plate was, she probably wouldn't even know what she was eating.

This is called talking nonsense with your eyes open.

What Jian Xi cared about was not her pregnancy, but the necklace on her neck. If it wasn't for the reflection, the necklace was so thin that it could hardly be seen.

However, this look in her eyes was interpreted as envy, jealousy and hatred.

Chi Jinnian was quite relieved to watch from the sidelines, knowing that Chi Yichen's son was what he wanted to hug all along, but Chi Tianyou, the least up-to-date grandson, was actually the most up-to-date in this regard.

The old man Chi coughed twice, "Jian Xi, if you want to conceive, you can ask Jian Jia for some experience. She can conceive, and I think you will be fine."

Although it was comforting words, why did Jianxi feel so penetrating when he heard it.

Turning her head mechanically to look at old man Chi, Jian Xi grinned dryly, "Hehehe, Dad, you are so good at joking, I'm not a sow, so how can I say that if there is no problem, it will be all right, everything should go smoothly. It's naturally good."

A few words are sarcasm, Jian Xi still can't be friendly to Jian Jia.

Granddaughter of Xue's parents, this was her title?

As soon as the words fell, Jian Jia's face turned dark. If Chi Tianyou hadn't pulled her from the side, she would have spilled the glass of juice in her hands long ago.

Standing up abruptly, she stroked her slightly swollen belly. The close-fitting dress made her figure slightly bloated.

Her face was sullen, her red lips parted slightly, "Eat slowly, I'm full, I'm full."

After all, she resolutely left the meeting, no matter how Chi Tianyou tried to persuade her, she never turned her head back. It seemed that she had long been determined to play her temper in front of Chi's family, and Jian Xi just became a stepping stone due to bad luck.

Fortunately, Chi Jinnian didn't spoil her either. He also had a calm and serious expression, so Jian Xi didn't have to worry. If she was really glass-hearted, there would be no need to stay at Chi's house any longer.

Jian Xi could only nod in embarrassment, but she didn't expect that in the end, old man Chi still asked Chi Tianyou to send some light and nutritious soup, so as not to really starve her, and she would have something to talk about at Xue's house.

"I love my precious great-grandson!" With a cold tone and frowning, everyone could tell that Chi Jinnian was already angry.

A good family dinner will inevitably turn into a mess in the end.

This is what is called high society.

After dinner, everyone was resting and chatting on the sofa in the living room. In fact, they were talking about business. This was a topic for the Chi family brothers. To Jianxi, it was like playing the piano with a cow.

She tilted her head and leaned on Chi Yichen's shoulder, the only thing in her mind was the necklace on Jian Jia's neck.

If she guessed correctly, that necklace might be the silver thread that rose with her long hair blowing in the wind when she looked up at the roof that night.

But this may also be because her mind is too sensitive, it's better not to startle the snake now.

After the dessert was finished, Aunt Chen served hot tea and drinks. Who knew that she splashed the hot tea on Chi Qingfeng's lap with trembling hands, and his face immediately flushed red, and the muscles on his face twitched in pain.

Probably because people will reveal their true colors that are not easy to reveal when their nerves are tense. At the moment of being burned, Jianxi happened to catch a glimpse of Chi Qingfeng looking at Aunt Chen. It is not so much resentment as it is fear.

That was definitely not the sinister look that an honest person would show.

Out of kindness, Jian Xi first jumped up and took a tissue to cover his legs, watching his expression carefully from the corner of his eyes - he returned to his honest and normal state, completely different from just now.

And what she noticed was far more than that.His eyes stayed on Chi Qingfeng's neck, a brown hair on the white collar was particularly eye-catching, that hair was so shiny, it didn't look like real hair.

If it wasn't for a close look, no one would pay attention to his neck, and since Chi Qingfeng is a little transparent, even fewer people would notice.

Maybe, even he himself didn't know where the negligence appeared.

"Thank you, I'm fine now." Chi Qingfeng looked at her with a light smile, his eyes were gentle, and he looked like an honest person, and he couldn't see that he was angry.

But Jian Xi just felt that something was wrong.

She straightened up with a smile, turned her head to look at Chi Yichen, and found that his brows were tightly furrowed, his carefully sculpted face was as cold as ice, and the sullenness emerging from his deep pupils, sparks "sizzled" in the air.

Obviously, he wasn't complaining about Chi Qingfeng, but blaming her, he shouldn't be nosy.

Sure enough, there must be something wrong between them, right?Jian Xi frowned, and the corners of his mouth were drawn down with a touch of displeasure.

She didn't intend to directly question Chi Yichen here. Compared to this, she had more important things to do-holding Aunt Chen's arm, Jian Xi smiled lightly and looked at Chi Jinnian, "Brother's tea is poured." , I'll make him another cup."

After old man Chi nodded in agreement, Jian Xi turned around and left the living room quickly.

Pulling Aunt Chen to the kitchen, Jian Xi looked around to make sure there was no one else, before she dared to ask Aunt Chen, "About a few days ago, did Jian Jia come to live at home? No, I should call her Sheng'er now."

What an irony.

She reported the specific time to Aunt Chen, and emphasized that it was very important to her whether she would be there at that time at night.

After pondering for a moment, Aunt Chen clapped her hands suddenly as if remembering something, and looked at Jian Xi with wide eyes, "Yes! The other day, Young Mistress Sun came to live at home, and at around ten o'clock in the evening, she suddenly wanted to go out. I asked her where she was going and didn't tell her, and she blamed me for meddling in her own business."

Jian Xi was just asking casually, trying her luck, but unexpectedly she got her guess right.

Excitedly grabbing Aunt Chen's hand to express her thanks, Jian Xi hurriedly rushed out of the kitchen, walked around the living room and walked into the hallway, looking at the shoe rack.

She thought there should be Jian Jia's shoes here, and just by looking at the soles, she could be sure if she was the one who wanted to smash her to death with a flowerpot that night.

She had visited that high-end apartment a long time ago. No one had visited the roof for a long time. It was covered with mud and dust. If she walked there, the soles of her shoes were covered with mud.

It is absolutely impossible for a picky person like Jian Jia to go out wearing those shoes again, so if there are any, they must be put here.

As soon as Jian Xi sorted out the thoughts in his mind, his eyes just stopped on a pair of flat shoes placed in the corner of the ground floor. The soles of the shoes were covered with mud and looked extremely dirty.

"I think I found the real culprit." Staring at the pair of shoes, Jian Xi muttered to himself.

Anger was burning on her pretty face, and her indifferent eyes were like ice, terrifying!
