Jian Tan naturally did not know about Xia Wei’s muttering and strange behavior.

In fact, after returning to the city from Talent Mountain, he had been dealing with some very complicated and trivial matters!

For example, he welcomed the guests from the Jiang Family politely and conceal Xia Wei’s presence in this rescue incident without batting an eyelid. “It’s good that Mr. Jiang is fine. I’m relieved. There’s no need to be so polite. Anyone with a conscience would save him without hesitation. The production team and 1 happened to bump into him coincidentally. At that time, other than Mr. Jiang, we didn’t see anyone suspicious.”

Jian Tan dealt with the other party’s indirect inquiries in a cultured and refined manner. His entire aura was calm and composed. He would not be afraid just because the other party was a terrifying mafia family in City A. He would not be afraid of a newly risen Jiang Family.

Of course, in order to stop some unnecessary trouble for Xia Wei, Jian Tan did his best tonight.

The person from the Jiang Family was a middle-aged and calm man. There was a murderous look on his face, but he was very polite to Jian Tan and Jian Heng!

He knew that he would not be able to get anything out of Jian Tan, so he smiled respectfully and bade farewell. He left Jingtai Garden with a few people behind him without any delay.

Jian Heng gestured for the old butler to send him out. He looked back at his younger brother. “Jiang Xiao’s accident clearly has nothing to do with you. Why did these Jiang Family members look for you? Could it be that they want to repay kindness with ingratitude and find trouble with you?”

Jian Tan shook his head when he heard that. His slender fingers pinched the acupuncture point between his eyebrows and he looked very tired. “No. Although they’re gangsters, they’re not unreasonable. They probably came over to ask if there are any clues they missed.”

Jian Heng became even more puzzled when he heard that. His gaze on Jian Tan became much deeper. “Then why do you want to exclude your Xia Wei from this matter, intentionally or unintentionally? Isn’t it better to let the Jiang Family know that Xia Wei saved Jiang Xiao? 1 heard that the Jiang Family is planning to invest in movies in the industry recently. This is a good opportunity for Xia Wei!”

The “your Xia Wei” in his Big Brother’s words was really pleasant to the ears. The gentleness in Jian Tan’s eyes for a moment was washed away by some emotion.

He put down his hand that was pinching the space between his eyebrows and explained calmly, “Isn’t it enough to have Emperor protect her? There’s no need to covet those unstable supports. The Jiang Family isn’t a force that’s easy to get close to. It’s also for her own good that we don’t let her get close.”

When Jian Tan said the last sentence, he suddenly frowned gloomily, as if he had thought of something unhappy again.

Jian Heng naturally knew his younger brother better. He lowered his eyes and pondered for a while before asking casually, “Did you make her angry? What’s the matter? Tell me, Big Brother will help you analyze it. It’s rare for you to have something to worry about!”

Jian Tan chuckled when he heard that. He looked up at Jian Heng calmly. “I really hope what you said just now is true.”

Jian Heng slowly sat up straight and looked like he was ready to listen. However, Jian Tan was not interested in sharing his broken heart. After sighing helplessly, he reached out and patted his brother’s shoulder to thank him. Then, he got up and went upstairs to rest.

Jian Heng looked at his brother’s dejected expression and felt that he had to find an opportunity to have a good chat with Xia Wei.

He had never seen Jian Tan like this.

At noon the next day, Xia Wei was woken up by an unknown call.

Xia Wei, the superstar, endured the anger of waking up and hung up the phone in one go. She closed her eyes and searched for sleep helplessly. This was a rare day off in the past few months. She would not be in a good mood if some miscellaneous matters affected her!

Three minutes later, Xia Wei, who was no longer sleepy, sat up in bed. She had something on her mind, so it was normal for her to not be able to sleep.

Hence, half an hour later, she naturally agreed to Su Chu’s invitation to shop. After she was “fully armed”, she sneaked out of the apartment and went out to relax with her friends.

There was a top-notch and complete shopping mall in City A. It was an international shopping mall in the city center..
