Chapter 1281: Chapter 1281: Fortunately, Qin Jun Came Back in Time

“Uncle is most worried about your health. If you feel unwell, he’s going to lose his temper at someone again.”

Chu Aotian only really ‘loses his temper’ with him and Jiang Chenyue; with others, his approach can’t be called ‘losing his temper.’ Otherwise, the Chu Family wouldn’t have so many people afraid of Chu Aotian’s tactics.

Chu Xi felt uneasy in her heart, with cold sweat continuously emerging on her palms, always feeling that Qin Jun’s words were intentionally said for her to hear.

She minutely furrowed her brow, not daring to offend Qin Jun, and joined in comforting Jiang Chenyue, “Madam, please don’t be angry. I’m fine. I am just worried that my own shortcomings would affect the young miss… If Madam needs me, I, I am still willing to help Madam.”

Jiang Chenyue has always had a bit of affection for this girl who shares a name and age with her own daughter, and even though she was angry, she didn’t take it out on her, “Forget it, it has nothing to do with you. You haven’t done anything wrong, and I wouldn’t take my anger out on you.”

“But to see Madam angry, I feel distressed.”

Chu Xi fell silent for a moment, then spoke in a downcast whisper, “I was adopted by my dad from an orphanage. I’ve been without a mother since childhood, and you’re like a mother to me. Even though I know it’s not real, I still think of you as my mom.”

Jiang Chenyue was taken aback for a moment, “You were adopted from an orphanage? How come I didn’t know before?”

Chu Xi managed a wry smile, “Because I don’t want people to look at me differently, so I never told anyone else. Just now, I couldn’t help it because I saw Madam was upset… sorry.”

Jiang Chenyue looked at her with a slightly softened gaze, “There’s nothing to apologize for, you’re fortunate to have been adopted by your father. My Xixi…”

Her precious child was still out there, not knowing where!

The thought clenched at Jiang Chenyue’s heart, a pained expression appearing on her face, as her emotions visibly drained away, “I wish she could be as lucky as you.”

“The young miss will have her own good fortune; certainly, she’s luckier than me!” Chu Xi knew how to ingratiate herself, showing a remorseful expression as she guiltily said, “I’m sorry Madam, I brought up a subject I shouldn’t have.”

Jiang Chenyue gestured for her to come closer, grabbed her hand, and lightly patted it twice, softly speaking, “It’s not your fault; you don’t always have to apologize to me. You are a good girl, I hope what you said comes true, that Xixi truly has found a family that is good to her and has been protecting her.”

Chu Xi clasped her hand back, firmly saying, “Certainly!”

Qin Jun watched as she quickly softened his aunt’s heart in just a few words, diverting a bit of the pity meant for his cousin onto herself, his gaze gradually darkening.

This woman had too many tricks up her sleeve; she might become a lurking viper, a danger to them all. Should he deal with this snake before it bites, or stay his hand due to his concerns for his aunt, biding his time?

Chu Xi then shared with Jiang Chenyue many of her life’s amusing stories and matters about filming, causing Jiang Chenyue’s gaze to grow increasingly warm towards her.

“Speaking of filming, I remember, Juner, you have a movie project in your hands. Give it to Xi!”

What she meant by giving wasn’t just acting in it, but to hand over the entire movie’s investment returns and all associated resources to Chu Xi!

Chu Xi knew that the movie invested by the Chu Family was a mega-production in Mema, her eyes shining brightly.

Qin Jun was just about to speak.

But at that moment, Jiang Chenyue’s phone started buzzing.
