Bai Tanxia sat on the sofa in the living room, curled up lazily, basking in the sunlight breaking through the French windows, feeling a little drowsy.

The body that was forcibly awakened by the biological clock will feel sleepy again, and the eyelids are hooked and the lower eye sockets are in close contact, in an attempt to have a graceful lunch break.

It's a pity that before he finished yawning, there was an abrupt ringing of the doorbell.

Steward Wang kept Song Qinian's words in mind, put down the things in his hand and hurried to the entrance.

But when she walked over to open the door and saw who was at the door, she immediately thumped in her heart and felt bad.

Standing at the door, Xie Dan had a strong aura and a cold expression on his face. He only glanced at Steward Wang, and he was so calm that the other party didn't move.

Hearing that the entrance was very quiet, Bai Tanxia was a little strange, "Aunt Wang?"

She called out, but got no answer.

Bai Tanxia wanted to get up to have a look, but as soon as she sat up from the sofa, she met Xie Dan who had just walked into the living room.

"... Ma'am." She shouted a little sluggishly.

At this time, even if Song Qinian hadn't returned home from get off work, Bai Tanxia would not have thought of Xie Dan for the person who came.

Xie Dan glanced at the position where she just got up, his face turned pale and turned cold. "My son is working hard outside, but you are lying happily at home."

"Sorry ma'am, I didn't know you were coming—"

Bai Tanxia waved her hands helplessly, her tone was apologetic, and her eyes were also confused, she didn't understand why Xie Dan's tone was so aggressive when he came up, and he was not friendly to her.

She obviously hasn't been there since she came back that day...

"Why, you don't welcome me when you know I'm here?"

Xie Dan's words directly twisted Bai Tanxia's meaning, making people feel uncomfortable listening to it.

"You really think of yourself as a young mistress." Xie Dan looked at her with a half-smile, his eyes full of sarcasm. "I think you really forgot why Song Qinian married you."

Xie Dan was not polite at all when he spoke, his voice was very choked.

When she came, she saw Bai Tanxia lying in the living room with nothing to do, and she hated Bai Tanxia even more in her heart.

Bai Tanxia pursed her lips and didn't know what to say. She keenly sensed the disgust and dissatisfaction towards herself in Xie Dan's words, but she didn't understand why.

Xie Dan's anger gradually grew, his eyes were sharp like a knife that could gouge someone out. "If it wasn't for my disapproval of Ning Qingzi's entry into the house, there would be nothing to do with you."

"...I don't understand what you're talking about." Bai Tanxia was slightly puzzled, and her delicate eyebrows frowned.

She pursed her lips, the corners of her mouth gradually smoothed out, and the last bit of joy in her heart disappeared with Xie Dan's words and was replaced by disgust.

Although she already knew that Xie Dan hated her when she was brought back by Song Qinian last time.

But even if it's disgusting, there's no need to say... so ugly.

She didn't like being compared with Ning Qingzi, especially when the person who said this was her mother-in-law.

Even if the relationship is bad, but with such blunt words poked in front of her face, Bai Tanxia still couldn't control the emotional turmoil in her heart, and gently sucked her nose.

Why did the mother-in-law say it as if she picked up what Ning Qingzi didn't want.

She and her husband are so affectionate, what's wrong with Guan Ning Qingzi?

"To put it bluntly, if it wasn't for Song Qinian trying to fight against me, even if you cultivate eight lifetime blessings, you still won't be able to marry our family."

What Xie Dan said was not subtle at all, the bluntness made Bai Tanxia's eyes blush, and the grievances surged up in his heart, almost overflowing.

"If Song Qinian wasn't trying to fight against me, would it be your turn to take this position?"

"It's cheap and you can spend it for a few years, guarding such a big house by yourself."

"Anyway, my son doesn't necessarily see you a few times a year, and his heart is devoted to that surnamed Ning. Now you don't have to pay anything, and the young mistress can be at ease."

Xie Dan's words followed one after another, like sharp swords, stabbing hard into Bai Tanxia's heart, the pain made her breathless.

Bai Tanxia lowered her eyes and opened her mouth for a while, but she didn't want to contradict Xie Dan and make her husband unhappy.

"I just said a few words about you, so I can't listen?" Xie Dan snorted coldly. "I don't even look at what I am."

Obviously she was sitting and standing with Bai Tanxia, ​​but Xie Dan's aura was very strong. "It's just a shield against me."

shield?
Hearing this word, Bai Tanxia subconsciously felt a little cold, and felt inexplicably panicked.

A suffocating loneliness swept over her whole body, even from her fingertips to her heart, causing Bai Tanxia to feel the familiar pain in her head again.

The atmosphere in the living room was so frozen that people felt that their breathing was followed by a chill in their hearts.

Steward Wang, who had been standing by the side all the time, saw that the situation was not right, he was anxious and couldn't intervene to help Madam speak, taking advantage of Xie Dan's focus on Bai Tanxia, ​​he hurriedly and quietly exited the living room.

Seeing that Bai Tanxia's voice was silenced by what he said, Xie Dan had a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.

The silence in the living room made people suffocate, and his head was aching again, but Bai Tanxia couldn't take the initiative to say that he wanted to rest, wouldn't that be driving her mother-in-law away.

What's more, what Xie Dan said just now kept circling in her mind, she subconsciously didn't want to think about it, but the more she listened to it, the more her heart sank, and the grievance couldn't help but spread to her eye sockets and turned into fog to block her vision.

What the mother-in-law said...is it true?

Bai Tanxia bit her lip uncontrollably, and subconsciously increased her strength so that she would not pay attention to the headache, but her thoughts couldn't stop thinking about Xie Dan's words.

So, so her husband lied to her?

He was nothing, and even married him only because Song Qinian couldn't marry Ning Qingzi.

Thinking of this possibility, Bai Tanxia's eyes were sore, tears were hanging on the side of the eye sockets, and she was so brave that she refused to fall in front of Xie Dan.

She didn't want to admit that the love during this period was all illusion, but Xie Dan's words seemed to tear everything up with ruthless hands, making Bai Tanxia's head hurt again.

She covered her head and didn't speak, but felt the pain getting stronger and stronger, as if she wanted to break through some shackles, which made her eyes faintly dark.

But in the next second, the tip of his nose smelled a familiar fragrance approaching.

She looked up, was taken aback when she saw the familiar face, and subconsciously called out, "Husband?"

Seeing her pale face, Song Qinian felt a little distressed.

He hummed lightly, and sat beside Bai Tanxia, ​​just blocking Xie Dan's sight.

"How are you?" Song Qinian cared softly, ignoring Xie Dan's cold gaze, and focused all his attention on Bai Tanxia in front of him.

Bai Tanxia replied instinctively, her tone full of grievance and forbearance. "Husband, my head hurts."

"Headache?" Song Qinian's heart tightened quietly when he heard her say this.

His gaze was fixed on Bai Tanxia's cheek, and he stretched out his hand to help someone rub his temples. The heartbeat in his chest sounded like a drum, and he paid attention to Bai Tanxia in front of him with imperceptible tension.

Bai Tanxia didn't want Song Qinian to worry, so he shook his head slightly to indicate that he was fine.

The headache that intensified just now, when he saw Song Qinian appearing, he seemed to feel better, and his heart became more at ease.

Song Qinian was worried, although he really wanted to have the doctor come to examine Bai Tanxia right now, but the most important thing now was Xie Dan.

He turned around and stood in front of Bai Tanxia to isolate the two of them. "Ms. Xie, I said Xia Xia is my wife."

"How could you say that about her!" Song Qinian said in a low voice, with displeasure in his eyes.

Xie Dan felt a pain in his chest when he was so angry, instead of being angry, he smiled, "When you married her before, why didn't you get nervous?"

"Now you treat people as treasures, Song Qinian, why didn't I realize when your acting skills were so good."

She glanced behind Song Qinian, and saw that Bai Tanxia was hiding silently, her tone was even colder.
