Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2852: Chapter 2788: Unclear Back Then

Jiang Xiao said, ”Otherwise, should I order? I think my ability to order dishes is pretty good. I’ve been to this place many times, so how about I order a variety of flavors?”

Father Wang nodded and said, ”I think that’s fine, Jiang Xiao, you can handle the ordering.”

Wang Yi took a deep breath and softly held Chen Yin’s hand under the table.

She was feeling very apologetic.

It was precisely because her aunt was such a person that when she knew Jin Mang was coming, Wang Yi had a bad feeling.

But she didn’t expect that as soon as they sat down, such a scene would occur.

Chen Yin gently squeezed her hand back, giving her a slight smile, his gaze reassuring that it was alright.

In fact, when Wang Yi told him that several people from her family might come, he had already mentally prepared himself, thinking that it definitely wouldn’t be easy to pass their approval. Initially, the Wang Family didn’t agree with him and Wang Yi being together, but because Wang Yi liked him, they had no choice but to accept it.

However, later on, after causing a scene with Xu Yiqiu, the Wang Family opposed again.

No matter how bad the Wang Family’s attitude was, he was mentally prepared.

Although the arrival of Jin Mang and her sister-in-law was unexpected, he wasn’t unable to withstand it.

When their family fell from grace before, he and his mother had already heard too much mockery from relatives and seen too much disdain.

Jiang Xiao ordered a table full of dishes.

Director Jin and Mrs. Jin tried to adjust the atmosphere, and it gradually became less awkwardly tense.

Jin Lei occasionally spoke about some fresh happenings at the art academy, which brought a smile to Aunt Chen’s face.

After the food was served, everyone politely started eating.

Once they had mostly finished eating, Jin Mang could hardly hold back anymore and started again.

”What I said earlier might have been unpleasant, but shouldn’t we talk about the real business now?”

”Yes, yes, yes,” Aunt Chen immediately put down her chopsticks and said, ”This is about our Chen Family marrying a daughter-in-law, and I’m truly delighted. Our Chen Yin has been wholeheartedly devoted to Little Yi all these years, and now they are...”

”Chen Yin is wholeheartedly devoted to Little Yi?” Jin Mang’s sister-in-law Lee Li couldn’t help but interject, ”How come I heard otherwise? Wasn’t their breakup back then because Chen Yin was involved with another woman?”

Once those words were spoken, the atmosphere at the dining table tightened again.

Wang Yi clenched her hands into fists.

Are these people really here to help her?

Or do her parents truly disapprove of her marrying into the Chen Family, so they invited her aunt and her uncle’s sister to disrupt things?

Just as she was about to speak, Chen Yin held her hand.

He was also deeply regretting the trouble he caused in the past with Xu Yiqiu.

No matter what is said about him now, he doesn’t mind. What matters most is that he feels it hurts Wang Yi.

He was most afraid that Wang Yi still harbored old grudges against him in her heart.

So, he wanted to take this opportunity to reaffirm his stance.

”Back then I did have some interaction with that lady Xu, and admittedly, I was a bit restless at the time and didn’t realize how inappropriate her closeness was. I didn’t set clear boundaries with her or consider Little Yi’s feelings. That was my fault.”

He expressed sincerely, ”I know that in handling those matters, I was unfair to Little Yi. However, to say I had any ambiguous relationship with that person is not true. It was just about not maintaining the right distance. Anyway, I’ve recognized my mistake, and it took me a long time to earn Little Yi’s forgiveness.”
