In the past, no matter what the Tan family did or how much money they asked for, the Xia family was not calculative about it. They saw it as only the loss of some worldly possessions which they could still afford.
After all, Tan Jing had not done anything out of line and she still treated Xia Wen very well. No matter what, the Xia family would render help to Tan Jing on account of Xia Wen. They always felt that she did whatever she did because she was left with no choice and that she would not have done it if it was not for her maternal family.
However, it was a totally different story now. Tan Jing had almost gotten Qiao Mei killed and even brought trouble into the family, almost wiping out all the Xia family members in one fell swoop. Their ancestors' foundation was almost destroyed in one day. In order to save Tan Jing, Xia Wen had even gone to ask He Ning for help.
