Chapter 389: Jian Tan Is Angry
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“If the few of you really get together, won’t the production team of ‘Zhaoyuan’ become a battlefield?”
Huo Feng still swallowed his last sentence rationally. He snorted and exchanged a complicated look with Ye Ting.
Ye Ting was not like Huo Feng, who “wanted to see the world in chaos”. He knew that Jian Tan was sincere to Xia Wei, so he only looked at his good friend worriedly.
Seeing that Xia Wei was no longer talking and was only looking at her and Wei Xi, Ding Jing was like a peac.o.c.k that had won. The corners of her mouth were almost raised to the sky.
She did not care about Huo Feng’s teasing. Just as she was about to say something, Wei Xi suddenly pressed her hand under the table. She looked at Wei Xi, her eyes filled with confusion.
“Xia Wei, you seem to have some misunderstandings about Ding Jing and me. It’s true that what you said earlier makes sense, but you seem to have forgotten something. The group of ‘gold fingers’ that you specially mentioned also seems to include Jian Tan! In that case, do you admit that you’re not the same kind of person as Jian Tan?” Wei Xi was obviously not an easy person to deal with like Ding Jing. He knew what it meant to pursue victory and sow discord.
“Wei Xi!”
“Aren’t you underestimating Jian Tan too much by categorizing him into the same category as you guys? Do you think you and Ding Jing’s talent or ability can compare to him? I’m not trying to attack you and Ding Jing. I’m just telling the truth.” Xia Wei interrupted Jian Tan’s deep voice and stopped Wei Xi. A faint mocking smile appeared on her lips.
As she spoke, she looked at Ding Jing, whose eyes were slightly cold. She continued, “I can’t say that I’ll take good care of you. Congratulations on ‘acquiring’ this role first. I can only say that I wish you success. Your friend is very smart, but this smartness doesn’t seem to be used appropriately.”
After saying this meaningful sentence, Xia Wei slowly turned to look at Jian Tan regretfully.
Jian Tan naturally understood that Xia Wei was saving face for him and Wei Xi. The anger that was brewing in his heart suddenly dissipated a little.
Actually, he was the one who should be disappointed. He sincerely wanted to share the joy of meeting the love of his life with his good friends, but he was rewarded with such a “scheming counterattack”!
Wei Xi was not happy for him. He did not even acknowledge this fact.
This made him very embarra.s.sed in front of Xia Wei and his two other old friends. This was something he had never imagined before.
It turned out that in front of Ding Jing, his friends.h.i.+p with Wei Xi, whom he had grown up with, seemed worthless.
Wei Xi had ruined today’s meal singlehandedly. He had completely laid his cards on the table and was about to stand on the same side as Ding Jing. What was laughable was that Jian Tan was sandwiched in the middle. For the first time, he became a mawkish character.
“You shouldn’t have brought Ding Jing here today,” Jian Tan said.
He frowned slightly and smiled self-deprecatingly when he looked at Wei Xi. This was the first time such an expression had appeared on the proud Jian Tan’s face. “I thought that you were a good friend whom I could tell everything to, but you only seem to have Ding Jing in your eyes… Forget it. I’ve thought too much this time. I understand your att.i.tude. That’s all for today. Xia Wei and I will go back first.”
After saying that, Jian Tan stood up and didn’t even look at Wei Xi and Ding Jing. After gently helping Xia Wei onto the wheelchair, he pushed her away and left the venue. He didn’t even say goodbye to Ye Ting and Huo Feng.
Ding Jing could not understand what was going on in these few minutes. She stood up and stared anxiously at Jian Tan’s back. She wanted to say something, but Huo Feng stopped her!
Jian Tan was angry.
Huo Feng and the others who were left in the private room almost immediately realized this.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime fortuitous encounter. For a moment, Huo Feng did not know what to say. He let go of Ding Jing’s shoulder and looked down at Wei Xi, who was silent.
“How should I put it? You, Wei Xi, are really capable. This is the first time I’ve seen Jian Tan so angry. You’re really awesome!”
As Huo Feng spoke, he grabbed the wine gla.s.s in front of him and threw it away after drinking it. He kicked the chair beside his legs and an ear-piercing sound sounded in the private room.
Ding Jing was so frightened that she trembled unconsciously. Then, she heard Huo Feng snort and say, “It’s boring. Let’s go..”
