“Xiaotao, have you seen Dad?”
Yin Tao nodded towards Yin Hao. When she saw Jiang Xing chatting happily with Zhao Yue not far away, she couldn’t help but ask, “Brother, that Jiang Xing didn’t spout any nonsense, did he?”
When he heard Yin Tao’s question, Yin Hao recalled what Jiang Xing had just said to him and asked worriedly, “Xiaotao, do you know Jiang Xing from before?”
Yin Tao didn’t know if she should be honest with Yin Hao, but no matter what, now wasn’t the time to explain.
“I have, but I’m not familiar with him. One look and I can tell that he’s not a good person.” Yin Tao warned Yin Hao seriously, “Brother, you must not do business with him. This person doesn’t look reliable. ‘
Yin Hao could tell that Yin Tao didn’t want to explain in detail, so he didn’t pursue the matter. Instead, he reminded her, “If Jiang Xing finds trouble with you in the future, tell me. Don’t try to deal with it on your own.”
Yin Tao nodded. She could tell that Yin Hao was truly concerned about her.
Yin Tao tried her best to lie low the entire night, but she was inevitably pulled out by Zhao Yue for questioning at the dining table.
“Xiaotao, the children of these aunties are about the same age as you. You should spend some time with them in private. Perhaps you can become friends. ‘
Zhao Yue couldn’t wait to introduce Yin Tao to these finely dressed women, as if she was introducing a product to them, hoping to gain the favor of the customers.
Yin Tao didn’t take Zhao Yue’s words to heart. There was no need for her to retort. In any case, she would return to the police station straight after dinner.
In the future, it was up to her to decide if she wanted to interact with her. There was no need to waste her breath on Zhao Yue and also embarrass everyone at the same time.
However, Jiang Xing, who was sitting beside Yin Hao, didn’t seem to have any intention of letting Yin Tao off. Instead, he said to Zhao Yue without hesitation, “Madam Yin, Xiaotao and I hit it off very well. I hope you can give me more chances.”
Jiang Xing’s straight talk attracted the attention of many people at the dining table. Zhao Yue was also very surprised by Jiang Xing. Previously, when she saw that Madam Jiang had no intention of coming, she thought that the Jiang family didn’t fancy Yin Tao.
“Of course. It’s always a good thing for young people like you to interact more.
Xiaotao isn’t young anymore. I’m also hoping that she will find a good suitor.” The meaning behind Zhao Yue’s words was very clear. Yin Tao listened to the conversation between the two of them and frowned.
“Xiaotao isn’t that old. I would like to keep her by my side for a few more years. You’re too anxious. ‘
Yin Dong looked at Zhao Yue, who was chatting happily with Jiang Xing, and said to her, “Let her decide for herself. As parents, we shouldn’t be making decisions on her behalf all the time.”
When Yin Tao heard her father’s words, she knew that her request had worked. Zhao Yue looked unhappy. She had planned to use this opportunity to build a relationship with the Jiang family, but she didn’t expect Yin Dong to interfere.
Seeing that the atmosphere at the dining table was a little awkward, Yin Hao smiled and said to Zhao Yue, “Mom, you should worry more about me. Xiaotao is doing well and has her own mind. ‘
“Your business?” Zhao Yue sighed unhappily and said, “When have you ever listened to me? You didn’t fancy any of the girls I introduced to you. I wonder what kind of girl you’re looking for?’
It wasn’t that Zhao Yue hadn’t put in a lot of effort for her son’s marriage. Yin Hao was considered young and promising, and he was quite good-looking.
Zhao Yue had introduced many girls with good family backgrounds to him, but Yin Hao had rejected all of them. He said that he didn’t like girls who didn’t have their own minds, and he didn’t like arranged marriages either.
As time passed by, Zhao Yue had no choice but to give up on Yin Hao’s marriage. After all, she didn’t have the final sayin this matter. However, Yin Ning and Yin Tao were different. Zhao Yue felt that she still had some say in their marriages.
“Therefore, don’t get involved in Xiaotao’s marriage. What era is it now? Our family isn’t so down and out that we have to rely on my sister’s marriage to support us.” Yin Hao’s tone was very relaxed, but the words he said made everyone present understand how protective he was of Yin Tao.
It seemed that the Yin family still cared a lot about this daughter. Yin Hao and Yin Dong had no intention of marrying Yin Tao off.
Zhao Yue was alone and helpless. She didn’t dare to discuss Yin Tao’s marriage anymore. The atmosphere was a little down at the end of the meal. After all, Zhao Yue had gathered everyone here in a bid to matchmake Yin Tao, so as to get her married as soon as possible. However, Yin Dong and Yin Hao’s attitude made everyone wary and silent.
Jiang Xing knew better than to continue and risk a rebuff. He didn’t try to get close to Yin Tao anymore, instead he seemed to have something else up his sleeves..
