Seeing how the old man defended Xia Xibei, Yang Wenyin’s face turned green. However, she did not dare to disobey the old man.

After all, he was the head of the Qi family.

When Yang Wenyin didn’t say anything else, Xia Xibei didn’t either.

The purpose of her coming over this time was not to quarrel with Yang Wenyin.

Xia Xibei had a very pleasant meal.

Ling Xiao was very attentive and prepared a lot of delicious food for her.

Half of these dishes were her favorites.

Looking at Ling Xiao’s enthusiastic appearance, Xia Xibei was also very happy.

Although she had not yet acknowledged Ling Xiao as her mom, the mother-daughter bond could not be erased.

“I want to eat this,” Xia Xibei whispered to Ling Xiao, her voice a little delicate.

Seeing Xia Xibei acting child-like with her, Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment, but then she was in a good mood.

This showed her that Xia Xibei treated her as one of her own, so she dared to be pampered like this.

The fact that Xia Xibei was so young, just like her daughter, made Ling Xiao feel more motherly love.

As soon as Xia Xibei asked, she immediately brought a piece of food to Xia Xibei.

“Thank you, Aunt Xiao,” Xia Xibei sweetly said thank you.

“You’re welcome.”

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but touch her head, her smile getting even wider.

This kid was beautiful!

Such a cute and well-behaved kid really made one adore her.

Although Xia Xibei was Ling Juan’s child, and Ling Xiao and Ling Juan had a grudge against each other, it didn’t affect her feelings for Xia Xibei.

First of all, Xia Xibei was her savior and her status was different.

Secondly, she felt warm inside just by looking at Xia Xibei.

Although Xia Xibei was Ling Juan’s child, Xia Xibei had not been brainwashed by Ling Juan all these years, so there was no need to mix her with Ling Juan.

Besides, Xia Xibei’s behavior and personality were not even remotely similar to Ling Juan’s.

She felt affectionate when she looked at Xia Xibei.

Ling Xiao and Ling Juan looked somewhat similar, after all, they were sisters, even if they were from the same father and different mother.

Now Xia Xibei looked a little bit similar to her too, which made her feel affectionate.

To sum up, Ling Xiao treated Xia Xibei very well.

Looking at Ling Xiao’s warm and caring look at Xia Xibei, Qi Xin could barely stomach the scene.

She just felt rage and wanted to lash out.

However, such an occasion did not allow her to be reckless.

The old man and Qi Zhi’an were there, so if she made a scene, it would make them think less of her.

The previous incident has only slowly faded away. If she had another temper tantrum, it would be difficult for her.

Thinking of this, Qi Xin could only hold back her anger and resentment and looked at Xia Xibei with resentment.

Yang Wenyin looked at Xia Xibei and Ling Xiao acting close, and her mouth moved.

She just wanted to speak sarcastically, but thinking of the old man on the side, she could only hold back her anger.

She could not understand how Ling Xiao could be so enthusiastic about Xia Xibei.

Could it be that she was giving her a hard time?

Xia Xibei was Qi Zhiqiang’s illegitimate daughter, so Ling Xiao’s enthusiasm for her was an attempt to slap her sister-in-law’s face, right?

Yang Wenyin was overwhelmed with thoughts, but she could only hold them back, and almost suffered internal injuries.

The meal went on and the atmosphere was treacherous, but Xia Xibei was calm and ate very well.

Let them stay mad at her!

After the meal was finally finished, Qi Zhi’an couldn’t wait.

“Come, I’ll take you to the spiritual plant garden!”

He had a lot of questions he wanted to ask Xia Xibei!

“Okay,” Xia Xibei smiled.
