If Su Jingen knew what Jiang Lin's monthly salary was, she definitely wouldn't have said those words.

At this moment, Wei Jinghan, who was sitting across from Su Jingen, couldn't keep up with Su Jingen's jumping train of thought. Wasn't this woman just crying out that she was hungry just now? Why did she start to care about others now?

Could it be that he was so hungry that his head didn't clear up?

Wei Jinghan didn't know how to respond to Su Jingen's ridicule. He could only take a sip of the red wine in his cup to hide his embarrassment.

At this moment, the phone in Wei Jinghan's pocket vibrated. He picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID. After hesitating for a while, he decided to answer it.

"Answer it. What are you doing?" He didn't know if it was due to the hunger, but Su Jingen's tone towards Wei Jinghan wasn't very good. She was always provocative when it came to answering phone calls.

Wei Jinghan glanced at Su Jingen and expressed his dissatisfaction at her actions of setting fire to everyone. Even so, he still answered the call half-heartedly, "Mom, what's wrong?"

When Su Jingen, who had been in an aggressive mood a moment ago, heard Wei Jinghan call out 'mother', the imposing manner of her body instantly dissipated.

She looked at her surroundings in panic, making sure that no one had seen her attack Wei Jinghan. Only then did she relax, as if she was a completely different person from the Little Demon Girl who had bared her fangs and brandished her claws.

'F * ck! 'Wei Jinghan's words were like a clap of thunder, causing Su Jingen to be scared senseless.

Su Jingen suddenly felt a sense of nervousness in her heart, as if Wei Jinghan's mother was right in front of her.

"Little Four, you're engaged to that illegitimate daughter of the Su Clan?" Zhou Yiran asked in disbelief.

One of the illegitimate daughters was called out very loudly with a very high pitch. Wei Jinghan felt that his brain was shaken until he was completely muddled. Su Jingen, who was at the side, also frowned.

These days, Zhou Yiran had heard the rumors that her best son was engaged to the notorious illegitimate daughter of the Su Clan.

God knows how shocked and furious he was. He was certain that his illegitimate daughter must have played some tricks on his son!

Otherwise, with that illegitimate daughter's talent and knowledge, how could her son possibly fancy her?

"Yes." Wei Jinghan indifferently looked at his "illegitimate daughter" sitting across from him. This woman no longer had her previous imposing aura, and now her head was drooping. It was unknown just what sort of strange thoughts were running through her mind.

"Little Four, don't scare mother. Are you threatened?" Zhou Yiran didn't have high requirements for her daughter-in-law, but at least she couldn't marry an illegitimate daughter, right?

If word of this got out, what face would the Wei clan have in the future?

Wei Jinghan pinched the center of his brows. His mother's words were within his expectations, so he was a bit irritated.

"Mom, I'm a bit busy right now, so I'll hang up first," Wei Jinghan said half-heartedly as he hung up the phone.

"Hey, you child …" Zhou Yiran knew that this was Wei Jinghan's excuse. She was so anxious that she couldn't stop Wei Jinghan. She helplessly listened to him hang up the phone.

"This child has never let me relax ever since I was young!" Zhou Yiran threw her phone onto the sofa. Whenever she encountered a situation where she didn't want to say anything, Wei Jinghan would just use this as an excuse.

"That's enough, Little Four has grown up so he knows what he's doing. Don't worry about him." Wei Tianheng, who was reading the newspaper at the side, advised as his gaze never left the newspaper in his hands.

His wife was great in everything, but she was too much in charge of her child.

Now that the child had grown up, if he continued to be so strict with him, he feared that something bad would happen.

As a successful businessman, Wei Tianheng was naturally different from Zhou Wengrong. He had a much wider understanding of the world around him.

Also, women tend to be emotional, while rational men can see more details and see a lot of things that are intrinsic to them.

How could Zhou Yiran listen to him? She really wanted to fly to Wei Jinghan's side and give her son a good brainwashing.

Over at the Italian restaurant, Su Jingen saw Wei Jinghan impatiently hang up the phone. She felt like fifteen buckets of water were being poured over her head.

"About that, you and your mom didn't talk about me, right?" Su Jingen stammered as she asked. She noticed that Wei Jinghan's expression wasn't too good and even lowered her voice a lot, afraid that she would anger Wei Jinghan.

Wei Jinghan had said a few words just now, but Su Jingen had been unable to guess the contents of it.

However, she seemed to hear an unusually loud illegitimate daughter on the phone, and guessed that they were probably talking about her.

It was unknown what they were chatting about, but Wei Jinghan's expression was clearly not too good. This also aroused Su Jingen's curiosity.

Previously, Su Jingen really wanted to know what Wei Jinghan's mother thought of him, but from that illegitimate daughter of hers, she didn't seem to like him very much.

"It has nothing to do with you." Wei Jinghan understood his mother's temperament. Su Jingen wasn't in the wrong. It was just that her illegitimate daughter's identity had aroused his mother's disgust.

This identity was not something that Su Jingen could choose. Wei Jinghan looked at Su Jingen as a trace of pity arose in his heart.

"Oh." Su Jingen's mood clearly dropped. Even though Wei Jinghan had said that it had nothing to do with her, she still felt a bit uncomfortable in her heart.

Ever since she was young, the number of times she had been called an illegitimate daughter could be said to be innumerable. It was just that this time, the one who called her was Wei Jinghan's mother, causing her to feel sad.

It turned out that he had also placed the engagement in his heart and had even started to care about the opinions of the Wei Jinghan family members towards him.

This was a bad omen. Su Jingen carelessly used a fork to roll up the pasta in her plate. After rolling for a long time, she still couldn't find the noodles. Instead, she rolled more and more into her mouth.

"Eat." Wei Jinghan placed a piece of steak onto Su Jingen's plate, but his gaze was still on the food in front of him.

His mother's loud scolding had been heard by Su Jingen. Wei Jinghan was a bit upset. Although his mother's objection was expected, he didn't expect her to be this emotional.

This woman had been easily affected by his mother. It seemed that her illegitimate daughter was an incurable scar in her heart.

"I don't like Italian cooking." Since she wasn't interested in eating, Su Jingen put down her knife and fork and found an excuse.

Now that he really couldn't eat anymore, the hunger that had filled his heart just now had turned into grievance and injustice.

"That's how my mom is, don't worry." Wei Jinghan finally raised his head and looked at Su Jingen. His comforting tone was as stiff as usual.

After all, Wei Jinghan did not often console people.

Seeing his cat so upset that she couldn't even eat anymore, how could he, the owner, not comfort her with a few words?

He didn't even eat his favorite food anymore, so one could imagine how sad Su Jingen was right now.
