Chapter 85: Life-Saving Straw


Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations


When Gu Xiao came down from upstairs, she saw Ji Gao and the others already sitting at the dining table.


When Ji Gao saw Gu Xiao’s figure, he nodded at Gu Xiao and turned around to continue talking to Li Wen. He did not take Gu Xiao seriously at all.


Jiang He looked at Gu Xiao unhappily and said sarcastically, “Do you really think you’re a young lady from a rich family? You even need someone to invite you down for dinner? Don’t you know how to be more self-aware?”


Gu Xiao glanced at Jiang He and completely ignored her words.


This kind of person, as long as you didn’t reply to her, she would feel angry.


As expected, when Jiang He saw that Gu Xiao actually dared to ignore her, her eyes were about to flare up. She raised her hand and wanted to slap the table, but when she thought of Li Wen, she forcefully held it in.


“Look at what you’re like. You don’t even…”


“Alright!” Ji Gao frowned and interrupted Jiang He. “Look at yourself now! Sit properly. Xiaoxiao, you too. Hurry up and come over!”


Ji Gao didn’t want to help Gu Xiao, but with Li Wen around, no matter what, he still wanted to maintain the superficial harmony of the family. He couldn’t let outsiders see him as a joke.


As for in private… as long as it didn’t threaten him, he would turn a blind eye.


When Gu Xiao pa.s.sed by Jiang He, she noticed the other party’s gaze and the corners of her lips curled up into a mocking smile.


Ji Gao and the others couldn’t see it, but Jiang He could actually see it clearly. She couldn’t help but feel angry. However, when she thought of Ji Gao’s warning just now, she could only swallow the curses that were about to come out of her mouth.


She glared fiercely at Gu Xiao with a warning look in her eyes. Seeing that the other party ignored her, her chest heaved up and down in anger, but she did not dare to do anything.


On the other hand, Li Wen’s attention was diverted to Gu Xiao because of her arrival.


Now that Li Wen was Ji Yao’s life-saving straw, she naturally placed all her attention on him and naturally sensed his gaze.


She moved closer to Li Wen and hugged his arm, deliberately sticking close to him.


“Ah Wen, what are you looking at?” Ji Yao asked coquettishly.


Li Wen retracted his gaze and stroked Ji Yao’s smooth hand a few times. He was satisfied and smiled at Ji Yao.


“It’s nothing. It’s just my first time at Yaoyao’s house, so I’m a little curious.”


“Then, when Ah Wen comes to our house again in future, I’ll personally bring you around. What do you think, Ah Wen?”


Ji Yao looked up at Li Wen, her eyes filled with concern for him.


Li Wen indulged in Ji Yao’s gaze and tapped the tip of her nose affectionately. “Whatever Yaoyao says.”


Ji Gao saw the reaction of everyone present. After Li Wen finished speaking, he said, “Alright, let’s talk about this later. It’s meal time now.”


Ji Yao immediately restrained herself at these words.


Gu Xiao lowered her eyes and sneered in her heart. Looking at the other party’s performance, she felt even more disgusted.


She was about to have indigestion eating at the same table as these people.


But even so, Gu Xiao could only bear with it for the time being before she achieved her goal.


The servants served the dishes that had been prepared in the kitchen one by one. Gu Xiao ate her dinner quietly.


As expected of a specially hired chef, the taste was indeed not bad.


However, while Gu Xiao might want to eat peacefully, others might not be willing to see her relax.


Ji Yao glanced at Gu Xiao, then at Ji Gao, who was chatting happily with Li Wen and seemed to think highly of him. Then, she lowered her eyes and gently touched Li Wen’s thigh with her hand under the dining table.


Li Wen reached out and patted Ji Yao comfortingly.


Ji Yao smiled and looked at Gu Xiao smugly.


Gu Xiao glanced at Li Wen, who was sitting beside Ji Yao. She had some guesses and her eyes darkened.


After that, she heard Li Wen say to Ji Gao, “Uncle, I heard that you want to send Yaoyao overseas. Is this true?”


Li Wen feigned curiosity and looked at Ji Gao, waiting for his reply..
