Chapter 82

"Jin Taeyeon, is this your man? How can he be so impolite?" Although Jin Baoyan was very unhappy that Li Xunzhe was trying to make a move on Jin Taeyeon right in front of her, since he was the man she brought back, she couldn't just ignore it. This was a matter of her face, and she was also worried that Li Xunzhe would lose face and take it out on her.

Jin Baoyan knew Li Xunzhe's character, but she was helpless about it. She knew that Li Xunzhe was dating other girls while dating her, and she was just one of his girlfriends. But who could blame her for falling for Li Xunzhe, or rather, for his money and family?

This time, to get Li Xunzhe to accompany her back home for the New Year, she had used all her tricks, serving him so well that he reluctantly agreed to go with her. To prevent Li Xunzhe from dumping her, she had to step in to defend him.

"Big sister, how is Xiang Zhongying impolite?" Jin Taeyeon was immediately unhappy. If Jin Baoyan was talking about her, given her gentle nature, she probably wouldn't have argued and would have silently endured it, after all, Jin Baoyan was older and her cousin.

But Jin Baoyan was insulting Xiang Zhongying, and Jin Taeyeon was not pleased. This was the man she liked. She could be insulted, but Xiang Zhongying couldn't.

"How can someone who is polite do such a thing? I wonder where you found this wild man, bringing anyone home, how embarrassing for you." Jin Baoyan glared at Jin Taeyeon and scolded her harshly.

"What did he do? A kiss on the cheek?" Jin Taeyeon shot back at Jin Baoyan, almost making her spit blood with anger.

Li Xunzhe, who liked to take advantage of pretty girls, was naturally known to Jin Baoyan. Jin Taeyeon deliberately mentioned the kiss on the cheek, wasn't it to remind her that Li Xunzhe had done something impolite? Who was more embarrassed? Her face turned ashen. She was also very puzzled, why had the always submissive Jin Taeyeon suddenly become so aggressive today?

"Come, come, come, Zhizhao, Zhita, Zhiyong, Yuhao, let me introduce you. This is my brother-in-law, Xiang Zhongying." Jin Zhiyong, seeing his sister Jin Taeyeon and Jin Baoyan at odds, quickly stepped in to mediate, pulling the young men who were originally surrounding Li Xunzhe and smilingly said.

"Uncle Zhizhong, I've already met Aunt Taeyeon and Uncle Zhongying just now." Jin Yuhao, who had just met Jin Taeyeon and Xiang Zhongying, smiled and said.

Xiang Zhongying, introduced as Jin Zhiyong's brother-in-law to his cousins and nephews, was instantly embarrassed, dryly laughed, and greeted the young men.

"Zhongying, this is Baoyan's boyfriend, Li Xunzhe, who has returned from America." After introducing the young men, Jin Zhiyong naturally didn't forget Li Xunzhe, after all, it was the first day of the New Year and the ancestral worship, and it wouldn't look good if things got too tense.

"Oh, so you're my brother-in-law, nice to meet you, nice to meet you." Xiang Zhongying seemed to have forgotten his earlier comment about amnesia being contagious and enthusiastically extended his hands to shake Li Xunzhe's hand again.

"Hmph, at such a young age, not learning well, and even talking about love? Students should focus on their studies." Li Xunzhe was still angry about what had happened earlier and was also jealous of Xiang Zhongying, who had won Jin Taeyeon's favor. He refused to extend his hand, acting like an adult lecturing a child.

"Right, right, Brother-in-law is absolutely right. Students should focus on their studies. Got it, Brother Zhizhong, I'm talking to you. You should listen to Brother-in-law carefully." Seeing that Li Xunzhe had no intention of shaking hands, Xiang Zhongying was not embarrassed. He sidestepped and grabbed Jin Zhiyong's hanging hand, shaking it vigorously.

Jin Zhiyong, being manipulated by the crafty Xiang Zhongying, who transferred Li Xunzhe's words to him, was at a loss. But since Jin Taeyeon was his sister and Xiang Zhongying was his recognized future brother-in-law, he naturally stood by his family, nodding and laughing, acknowledging Xiang Zhongying's words.

Li Xunzhe was almost driven to the brink of internal injury by Xiang Zhongying, secretly glancing at Jin Taeyeon, who was smiling at Xiang Zhongying, feeling very frustrated, muttering to himself that a beautiful flower had been planted in cow dung.

As a qualified playboy, Li Xunzhe naturally wouldn't leave just because of a few sarcastic remarks from Xiang Zhongying. His target was Jin Taeyeon, and if he left, where would he get another chance?

Suppressing his anger, he chose to ignore Xiang Zhongying's reminder, and with a self-assured smile, he extended his hand to Jin Taeyeon and said, "You're Jin Taeyeon, right? What a beautiful name. You're still in school, right? Students should focus on their studies. By the way, do you want to study in America? If you do, I can introduce you to a good university. The quality of education in American universities is far superior to that in China. With a degree from an American university, you won't have to worry about finding a good job when you return to China."

Li Xunzhe, being a playboy, quickly came up with a plan to drive a wedge between Jin Taeyeon and Xiang Zhongying. The temptation of studying in America was something few girls in Korea could resist, and if Jin Taeyeon couldn't resist it, wouldn't she be his?

"Thank you, Brother-in-law." Jin Taeyeon smiled but did not extend her hand to shake Li Xunzhe's. She pointed out that he was Jin Baoyan's boyfriend and didn't say anything more.

"You're welcome. You're Baoyan's sister, so we're family. Who else would I help if not you?" Li Xunzhe subtly withdrew his hand, maintaining a calm smile, seemingly not at all embarrassed. He then reached into his suit pocket, took out a business card, and handed it to Jin Taeyeon, saying, "This is my business card. I have a company in America that deals with educational equipment and has good relations with many American universities. As long as you come to me, you won't have to worry about getting into a good university."

Li Xunzhe subtly mentioned his status as a company president, continuing to tempt Jin Taeyeon. For a girl from a middle-class family like Jin Taeyeon, Li Xunzhe's status as a company president was quite attractive, and he was also well-versed in appearance, naturally more appealing than Xiang Zhongying, who was just a student.

Jin Baoyan, seeing Li Xunzhe continuously tempting Jin Taeyeon, stood by with a dark face, seething with anger.

"My sister is a trainee, and she's going to be a star, not going to America." Jin Xiaoyan, seeing Li Xunzhe constantly urging Jin Taeyeon to study in America, was immediately unhappy. For Jin Xiaoyan, her sister going to Seoul was already making her unhappy, let alone going to America? That would mean seeing her only once or twice a year.

Moreover, in Jin Xiaoyan's mind, being a star was a very prestigious profession. Saying that her sister was a star would be a matter of great pride, far better than studying in America. The brother in front of her was trying to prevent her sister from becoming a star, so she naturally had a bad impression of him.

"Ha ha." Li Xunzhe was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh, saying, "A trainee? What's good about being a trainee? Whether you can debut is still a question, and the status of Korean artists is not high. They work hard but don't earn much money, most of which goes to the company. Going to a good university is much better than being an artist."

"You... bad person." Jin Xiaoyan, seeing Li Xunzhe belittle her sister's trainee status, turned red with anger, unable to curse, and after a long time, could only say, "Bad person." Then, she angrily pulled her sister's hand and said, "Sister, let's not pay attention to that bad person."

Jin Taeyeon politely took the business card from Li Xunzhe, put it in her pocket without even glancing at it, and smiled as she hugged Jin Xiaoyan, saying, "Xiaoyan, you can't speak rashly. It's wrong to curse people. This brother is my brother-in-law. You can't be so impolite, understand?"

"Okay." Jin Xiaoyan responded, but her anger did not subside, and she still looked angry.
