After being reborn, the scumbag CEO begs me to remarry him every day.

Tang Xia took a taxi to the agreed-upon restaurant.

He glanced at the time.

Thankfully, I wasn't late.

However, because she had to go to an interview first, she couldn't wear the dress she had prepared in advance.

Tang Xia tidied her makeup again in front of the mirror.

I hope to leave them with a good impression.

"Hello, madam. May I help you?"

A blonde, blue-eyed waiter came over and spoke to her in English.

"No, thanks."

Tang Xia arrived at the door of the private room.

Just as I was about to push the door open, I heard a conversation coming from inside.

"This Miss Tang certainly has quite the airs. How come all of us elders are here, but she hasn't arrived yet?"

"Mom, it's not time yet!" It was Jin Yao's voice. "We arrived early, but that doesn't mean we can say others are late."

"You brat, don't think I don't know you've been fooling around with her lately!" Yu Xin pushed Jin Yao's head, thinking of the rumors she'd heard, and felt exasperated: "Don't forget who you are! What kind of future can you have by hanging around with a divorced woman all the time?"

Immediately afterward, another unfamiliar female voice rang out.

"If you ask me, it's because our little nephew has never been in a relationship and doesn't have any elders to keep an eye on him, so he was seduced by a woman of unknown origin. As for me, this is all my fault, sister-in-law. We're abroad most of the time, and you're all alone at home. You've been too neglectful of Xinghan."

Yu Xin looked at the alluring woman in front of her and felt no liking for her at all.

Her name is Selena, and she is a foreign citizen of Chinese descent.

She is the newlywed wife of the third son of the Jin family.

She had only been in the house for a short time, yet she was already bossing her around, acting like her second sister-in-law.

Yu Xin rolled her eyes and ignored her.

Sitting in the very center is the third son of the Jin family.

He seemed to have difficulty walking and was using a cane.

She takes very good care of herself; there are only a few fine lines on her face and a few gray hairs at her temples.

No wonder, at his age, he was able to marry a wife who was about the same age as Jin Yao.

Tang Xia listened to everything they said.

Although I was feeling a little down, I wasn't too unhappy.

Over the years, she has faced a lot of prejudice and skepticism.

"Sorry guys, I'm late."

Tang Xia pushed open the door and walked in with a dignified and proper smile.

The conversation in the room abruptly stopped.

Then, Selena smiled and said, "This must be Tang Xia. Just as Xing Han said, she is a stunning beauty."

Jin Yao wanted to come and find her, but her mother held her firmly in her seat.

Tang Xia raised the corners of her lips and smiled, "Thank you for the compliment, Auntie. Xinghan has something to attend to and may be a little late."

"This kid is just a bit too meticulous. He can just leave the small tasks to his subordinates. Otherwise, why spend so much money?"

Tang Xia simply smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes."

Then, he took out the gift he had prepared in advance from behind his back.

"Second Aunt, this is for you."

Yu Xin was originally from a wealthy family in Jiangnan. After marrying the second uncle of the Jin family, she rarely went back home.

Tang Xia chose a Suzhou embroidery handkerchief for her.

Upon seeing the gift, Yu Xin was taken aback, feeling a strange mix of emotions.

Then, Tang Xia walked over to Selena's side.

The gift I gave her was much more straightforward: a luxury handbag that's hard to find.

Selena happily accepted it.

Finally, it's for Uncle Jin.

This gift was prepared by Jin Xinghan.

"Hearing that my uncle likes antiques, Xinghan specially picked this out to give to him, hoping he will like it."

The gift was packaged in an exquisite wooden box.

Upon opening it, one finds a white jade sculpture of two cranes inside.

Tang Xia didn't understand, but she could tell that it must be quite valuable.

Uncle Jin's eyes lit up at first, but for some reason, his expression suddenly changed.

He slammed the wooden box shut, somewhat displeased, and said, "Even if he's busy, he still has to be late for his own uncle. I think he doesn't respect us old folks at all."

The people in this house originally regarded him as their leader.

Upon hearing his words, they dared not utter another word.

Tang Xia didn't think the gift hadn't touched his heart.

The anger of that young man from the Jin family was probably directed at me.

Tang Xia returned to her seat and had tea poured for everyone before explaining, "There was no meeting scheduled for this afternoon, but Xing Han wasn't feeling well and had to go to the hospital for a check-up, which caused the delay."

"Are you feeling unwell?" Selena blurted out. "Is it a heart attack?"

He had barely finished speaking when his uncle from the Jin family struck him with his cane, silencing him.

Selena knew she had said the wrong thing, and just rubbed her leg with teary eyes, not daring to say another word.

Tang Xia suddenly remembered the gossip she had overheard a few days ago when she was asking about everyone's preferences.

Some say that Uncle Jin's return this time is for the Jin family's wealth.

She hadn't taken it to heart at first.

But now it seems that this is probably not just a rumor.

She suppressed her smile and said calmly, "It's just that I'm not feeling well, but it's not a heart problem. My aunt has been abroad for a long time and knows Xinghan's health very well."

“I…I don’t know.” Selena chuckled awkwardly. “I’ve only heard about it.”

As their interactions progressed, the way Uncle Jin looked at Tang Xia became more meaningful.

Although Jin Yao is not very old, she has been with her father since childhood and has seen the complexities of the world of fame and fortune.

I have great admiration for Tang Xia's quick reaction.

At this moment, Jin Xinghan finally arrived late.

The first thing he saw when he came in was Tang Xia.

Tang Xia nodded slightly to him, and only then did he feel relieved.

"Second Aunt, Uncle, Aunt, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Jin Xinghan greeted each of them one by one.

Then, he sat down next to Tang Xia.

Tang Xia glanced at him and noticed that his lips were somewhat pale, which made her feel worried.

A few seconds later.

"Tang Xia! What are you doing?!"

Everyone was shocked by what they saw.

Yu Xin, in particular, was so frightened she almost jumped off her chair.

It turned out that Tang Xia had suddenly kissed Jin Xinghan's lips while they were talking.

Jin's younger brother and Selena have lived abroad for many years and have a more open lifestyle.

Yu Xin found it hard to understand and felt that it was an eyesore.

Tang Xia gently placed a kiss on Jin Xinghan's lips.

Seeing that there was still a trace of her lipstick on the corner of his mouth, she hurriedly wiped it off for him.

After finishing, he blushed and apologized to everyone.

"I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it."

"Couldn't hold back? Look at what you're saying! And you're doing this in front of your elders! What are you trying to do?"

"Mom, can you please say less? We're both adults, what's wrong with kissing? Haven't you and Dad ever kissed?"

Although Jin Yao also felt that Tang Xia's behavior just now was really shocking.

But she just wanted to stand on Tang Xia's side.
