Jiang Chenying was more cultured than Mrs. Gu. At the very least, she wouldn’t roll her eyes in front of others.
“Madam Gu, you can call me Madam Jiang. Since you know what I said just now was just an excuse, why did you expose me?” she said politely.
“Madam Jiang.” Mrs. Gu covered her mouth and laughed. “I know that your relationship is not going well. But what’s the use of changing the way 1 address you? Does that mean that Mr. Yin’s affair is not in existence anymore? Don’t deceive yourself. It’s quite ridiculous.”
“Yeah, it’s quite ridiculous. Look at your face now. You don’t look like a lady at all. No wonder your husband never brings you to dinner parties. Tell me, is he afraid of embarrassing himself?” Jiang Chenying asked.
“You!”
“What’s wrong?” Lin Gantang gently tugged at Yin Zhen and asked in a low voice, “Did Auntie have a conflict with Gu Zhichuan’s mother?”
Yin Zhen whispered to her, “Madam Gu likes to hold tea parties to make friends. She has invited my mum many times. My mum doesn’t like her personality and has never gone. Over time, Mrs. Gu has a problem with my mother.
“My mother is not a coward, so she naturally won’t coddle her.” Yin Zhen continued, “Madam Gu speaks in a sinister manner. My mother returned the favor. As time passed, their relationship became what you see now.”
Lin Gantang understood and nodded.
Mrs. Gu was hit where it hurt. She glared at Jiang Chenying, incensed. “It’s better to be embarrassed than to have your man’s heart elsewhere.”
“A failed woman is like a parasitic flower clinging to a man. Although I don’t have great talent, 1 have a few properties under my name. I’m not like some people who beg for money like beggars.” It was obvious who Jiang Chenying was referring to.
Jiang Chenying was calm and composed, making Mrs. Gu seem even more unreasonable. The people in the dining room looked in her direction one after another. Mrs. Gu could not keep her head up and was enraged. She immediately wanted to curse like a sailor.
Shi Muzhen pulled Mrs. Gu back. “Auntie, why do we have to let irrelevant people spoil our appetite? We have more important things to do after our meal. Isn’t Zhichuan more important than them?”
Mrs. Gu was convinced. She spat at Jiang Chenying and left, her high heels clacking on the floor.
Jiang Chenying frowned in disgust.
Mrs. Gu was dragged into a private room by Shi Muzhen, cursing away at Jiang Chenying. Shi Muzhen was getting a little annoyed. She took out the menu and interrupted her. “What would you like to eat, Auntie?”
Only then did Mrs. Gu stop. She picked a few dishes. After the waiter left, she asked Shi Muzhen, “1 heard that your mother is ill? What illness does she have that has kept her in hospital for so long?”
Shi Muzhen found it difficult to speak. “Ectopic pregnancy. The ruptured fallopian tube caused severe abdominal bleeding. Her condition has stabilized after emergency surgery.”
Mrs. Gu looked at her with a strange expression. “Isn’t your mum about the same age as me? She’s pregnant?”
“Although the probability is not high, there is a possibility of conception if there is ovulation.” Shi Muzhen explained.
This was not what Mrs. Gu wanted to hear – it would be a joke if she heard that a woman that age got pregnant because of her lust.
She looked down on this kind of behavior. Her gaze towards Shi Muzhen also became indifferent. “If you are as capable as your mum, give me a grandson. I will immediately ask Zhichuan to marry you. There is no need for Feng Yangyang.”
“Didn’t Auntie warn Feng Yangyang?” Shi Muzhen’s eyes flickered. “I also taught her a lesson previously, but she still hasn’t left.”
“Shameless b*tch, how can she let go of a rich man? You swore that you had a way, but what happened in the end? Can you do it?” Mrs. Gu questioned.
Shi Muzhen’s eyes were shifty. “It’s mainly because I’m not Zhichuan’s girlfriend, nor am I his fiancee. I don’t have a proper title, so it’s not easy to take action.”
“You reminded me.” Mrs. Gu was deep in thought..
