When Zhang Jie paid the bill and left, he happened to see Zheng Yan trying to tie up Xiao Miaomiao's hair, and called out, "Sister-in-law."

Xiao Miaomiao heard the call and turned around to see Zhang Jie standing at the entrance of the restaurant. "Zhang Jie? Are you coming here to eat too?" Xiao Miaomiao asked happily when she saw him.

"Well, I came here to have dinner with my colleagues. Sister-in-law, are you going home? I'll take you home. I'm on my way back." Zhang Jie walked over and said enthusiastically.

"Mr. Jiang, Lawyer Zheng." Zhang Jie looked at them and greeted them with a polite smile on his face. He was familiar with these people, especially Jiang Chen, with whom he had a special past.

Because of the bad relationship between the Li family and the Jiang family, Zhang Jie once had a conflict with Jiang Chen, and even fought. But now the situation is different. The relationship between the Jiang family and the Li family has gradually eased, and after Xiao Miaomiao married Li Jingcheng, the conflict between the two families seems to have been resolved.

"Zhang Jie, you are here too." Jiang Chen looked at him in surprise. He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.

Zhang Jie smiled and nodded. He secretly lamented the changes in the world. The two families that were originally at loggerheads had now changed their attitudes because of Xiao Miaomiao.

After Xiao Miaomiao married into the Li family, she became the bond between the two families, and the relationship between the two families improved. I heard from Zhou Yi that the two families have begun to cooperate.

Zhang Jie and Jiang Chen looked at each other, and a hint of complex emotions flashed in their eyes, but they were quickly concealed. Although there had been unpleasantness in the past, everyone chose to put aside their prejudices at this moment, after all, Xiao Miaomiao was here.

Xiao Miaomiao thought that she and Zhang Jie lived in the same compound, which was in the opposite direction of the Jiang family, so she didn't need to trouble her cousin to take her back.

So, she turned to Jiang Chen and said, "Cousin, I will go back with Brother Zhang, so you don't have to take a detour to send me back."

Jiang Chen nodded his head to show his agreement. He looked at Zhang Jie and said with a smile, "Then I'll trouble you, Zhang Jie, to take Miaomiao back."

Zhang Jie quickly waved his hand and said, "It's not a trouble. She is Jingcheng's wife and my sister-in-law. It's my duty to help take care of her." As he spoke, he glanced at Zheng Yan with a hint of warning in his eyes.

Zheng Yan felt Zhang Jie's gaze and saw the warning in his eyes, so he looked back.

At this time, Xiao Miaomiao said to Jiang Chen: "Cousin, don't worry, I will be careful about my safety. When I get home, I will definitely send you a message to let you know I am safe." After that, she picked up her mobile phone and scanned the code to pay for the hairpin.

Then, she took out two plum blossom hairpins and handed them to Jiang Chen, saying, "Cousin, these plum blossom hairpins are for my aunt. Please help me take them back and give them to my aunt."

Jiang Chen took the plum blossom hairpin and nodded with a smile.

"Although it's not as good as those hairpins from big brands, it's purely handmade and very beautiful. I think my aunt will like it." Xiao Miaomiao said happily.

"Even if you give me a branch, my mother will wear it on her head." Jiang Chen looked at the hairpin in his hand and it was indeed nice.

"That's because my aunt loves me." Xiao Miaomiao smiled and said, "Then I'll go first. Goodbye."

Jiang Chen took the change from Zheng Yan and stuffed it into Xiao Miaomiao's backpack, "I'll buy you some candy."

Xiao Miaomiao was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry when she saw this. She had been wondering why the payment had to be in cash, as it turned out to be pocket money for her.

"Cousin, I'm not a child anymore. I can use a cell phone now." Xiao Miaomiao thought about when she was little, her cousin would take out money to buy things, and would put the remaining money in her pocket, saying it was to buy her candy. She didn't expect that he still has this habit now.

"In my eyes, you have always been a child. Only children would say they are not children." Jiang Chen ruffled her hair and urged, "Go ahead. Zhang Jie is driving here."

Jiang Chen opened the car door and looked at Xiao Miaomiao gently: "Remember to send me a message when you get home." Xiao Miaomiao smiled slightly and replied softly: "Okay." Her sweet smile was like a flower blooming in spring, intoxicating.

At this moment, Xiao Miaomiao suddenly remembered that she had promised to draw a picture for Jiang Chen and Brother Zheng, so she quickly said, "By the way, cousin, Brother Zheng, I will give you your paintings after I finish them." Jiang Chen smiled and nodded, "Okay, we are not in a hurry, you can take your time."

Afterwards, Jiang Chen instructed Zhang Jie: "Drive slowly on the way back." Zhang Jie grumbled to himself. This was the first time he saw Jiang Chen being so fussy, but he still nodded to show that he understood.

After Zhang Jie and Xiao Miaomiao got in the car and left, Jiang Chen turned around and left. Along the way, Zhang Jie kept stealing glances at Xiao Miaomiao, and finally couldn't help but ask curiously: "Sister-in-law, you seem to be quite familiar with Lawyer Zheng?"

Xiao Miaomiao shook her head in bewilderment. "No, he's just my cousin's friend, and I just treat him as my brother. I invited him to dinner this time just to thank him for helping me deal with the divorce and property division with Hong Wenbin."

After saying that, she continued to play with the hairpin in her hand with a satisfied smile on her face, which showed that she liked the hairpin very much.

"He is nice to me because my cousin helped him." Xiao Miaomiao had heard a little about the help her cousin had given to Zheng Yan, but the relationship between the two of them was indeed very good. It could be said that it was a mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation.

"They have known each other since junior high school. After graduating from junior high school, high school and college, I would celebrate with him when I went to celebrate with my cousin. Since he has a close relationship with his cousin, he naturally treats me as his sister." Xiao Miaomiao turned to look at Zhang Jie and explained in detail.

Zhang Jie never expected that they had known each other so early, which also explained why Zheng Yan was so special to Xiao Miaomiao.

Obviously, Zheng Yan really likes Xiao Miaomiao, and the feelings between a man and a woman are beyond words, but Xiao Miaomiao is completely unaware of it.

Zheng Yan did not make his feelings clear, and Xiao Miaomiao knew nothing about it. Zhang Jie certainly would not be the one to point out everything.

After all, when faced with a person you deeply love and a person who deeply loves you, most people would probably choose the latter.

Zhang Jie did not go back directly after sending Xiao Miaomiao to the Li family. Instead, he went to see Li Jingcheng and told him about what he saw about Zheng Yan's love for Xiao Miaomiao.

"Zheng Yan is Jiang Chen's good friend, and they have a very good relationship. If Zheng Yan had proposed it before, Jiang Chen would definitely agree to let his sister-in-law marry Zheng Yan."

"Now my sister-in-law has married you, but if you don't wake up, if Zheng Yan comes to his senses, it is not impossible for him to pursue my sister-in-law. Jingcheng, you'd better wake up earlier, otherwise your wife might really be stolen away by someone else, and your brother-in-law will help you." Zhang Jie said, looking at Li Jingcheng lying on the bed.
