Yan Han’s phrases precipitated Xia Chen to stiffen, adopted by a dry chuckle to dispel the strain.
“It’s not about discouraging you from serving to others. I simply need you to prioritize your security,” Yan Han spoke softly, her voice stuffed with a mom’s deep concern.
Xia Wan gently patted Yan Han’s hand, reassuring her. “Mother, don’t fear. I’m not one to behave rashly.”
“That’s good. I belief you,” Yan Han replied, her face breaking right into a heat smile.
Xia Hai, observing his spouse and kids, sighed contentedly. “It’s great to have the household collectively like this.”
“All because of Wanwan.”
“Dad, it’s not all my doing. Brother earned this chance himself!” Xia Wan modestly declined the reward.
“With out Wanwan’s encouragement, I wouldn’t have even considered attending the reception. You deserve thanks,” Xia Chen stated as he returned to his seat, elevating his cup to Xia Wan. ‘Wanwan, this toast is for you.”
Caught off guard by Xia Chen’s gesture, Xia Wan hurriedly picked up her glass and sipped her juice.
In the meantime, Xia Feng’s playful complaints about being unnoticed drew laughter from the household.

“Xia Wan! It’s dangerous sufficient you harmed Xia Ru, and now you’re focusing on our Xia Ye? Have you ever no conscience?” Chen Lian’s voice was shrill, carrying down the road.
“Second Aunt, I don’t perceive. When did I hurt Xia Ye?” Xia Wan stepped ahead, assembly the accusation with a cool demeanor. “I want Xia Ye would cease seeing me as a rival. It doesn’t do her any good.”
At that second, Xia Hai and Yan Han joined them.
“Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, let’s talk about this calmly. Baseless accusations solely hurt our household’s concord,” Xia Hai stated, sounding weary.
“Second Sister-in-law, I can’t imagine Wanwan would hurt Xia Ye. Please confirm the information earlier than accusing her,” Yan Han spoke firmly, decided to defend her daughter towards Chen Lian’s groundless claims..
