After hearing Fan Yumei’s words, Su Yan’s lips curled into a cold smile. This woman knew how to defend her precious daughter. What did she mean by not thinking before speaking? She was not mentally retarded. Zhao Lili had said those words on purpose, however she did not want to be calculative.
After being scolded by Fan Yumei, although Zhao Lili was not convinced, she did not dare to continue causing trouble for Su Yan. She sat there eating noisily as if she was a resentful child.
Lan Jian glanced at Su Yan in surprise. In the past, when they bullied Su Yan, she was so dumbfounded that she could not speak properly. However, during the confrontation with the Zhao family’s mother and daughter, Su Yan handled it brilliantly. Whether it was her intelligence or her bearing and shrewdness, she could not be compared to ordinary women.
What kind of person was Fan Yumei? She was a famous figure in the circle of wealthy ladies in Jiang Du. Many wealthy ladies would take the initiative to get close to her when they saw her. But Su Yan did not coddle her at all and directly rebuked her face to face. Su Yan was simply beautiful and valiant.
Lan Jian secretly regretted it as he looked at his handphone on the table. If he had known that Su Yan was so bold, he would have secretly taken a video just ΠΟΝ. Fan Yumei stood up and personally served Su Yan a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup. Su Yan sat there and reached out to take it. She said politely, “Thank you, Auntie. You don’t have to serve me, please help yourself to the food too.”
Seeing that Su Yan did not take a bite of the food that she served to her, Fan Yumei’s expression was a little gloomy. Although Fan Yumei and Feng Hao were not blood-related, as his godmother, she was still one of the elders. Su Yan’s actions were a slap to her face.
What made her angriest was that Su Yan had been wearing a distant smile on her face ever since she entered. It was as if she did not care about their thoughts and feelings at all. Fan Yumei was displeased with this.
“Hmmm, you second-hand goods. Don’t tell me that you still look down on our Feng Hao?”Fan Yumei said hatefully in her heart.
Humans were indeed complicated creatures. There were many contradictions within us. When we were looked up to by others, we felt that they were greedy for wealth and wanted to climb up the social ladder. When we were looked down upon by others, we thought that they were just showing off.
At this moment, Fan Yumei had exactly this kind of mentality. Although she was smiling, she felt annoyed at Su Yan in her heart. In short, as a godmother, she did not approve of Feng Hao being with Su Yan.
There are a total of eight dishes, one soup, and ten plates of various side dishes at the dinner table. The dishes were rich in color, fragrance, and taste. During the meal, Fan Yumei kept giving Feng Hao all kinds of good food. She treated him as her own son.
After the meal, they returned to the living room and sat down. From time to time, Feng Hao secretly asked Su Yan if she wanted to leave, but Su Yan rejected him. Although she did not care what the Zhao family thought, she still had to consider the relationship between Feng Hao and the Zhao family. She did not want to cause a rift in the relationship between Feng Hao and the Zhao family because of her. She could not bear this responsibility, and she did not want to.
Seeing that she insisted on not leaving, Feng Hao had no choice but to try his best to protect her from being bullied. He was not a fool. Naturally, he could see that Zhao Lili was full of hostility towards Su Yan. Since he did not know the details of the matter, he could not blindly speculate whether it was right or wrong Not long after the few of them sat down, a black Mercedes-Benz drove to the entrance of the villa. Then, Feng Hao’s godfather, Zhao Yuan Shan, walked into the villa. When he saw Feng Hao, he was instantly overjoyed and immediately pulled him to the study room to chat.
Just as the two of them left, Zhao Lili spoke up, “Su Yan, how is my manor? This is your first time here. How about I bring you around to take a look?
Su Yan looked at her indifferently and said, “In that case, I’ll have to trouble Miss Zhao. It so happens that I wish to enjoy the scenery of Mount Li Manor.”
Her voice was calm but her eyes were strangely indifferent. It was so indifferent that it made people feel cold. Zhao Lili was harboring evil intentions, so she suddenly felt a little guilty under her gaze. In a battle between women, one cannot lose her poise. Zhao Lilipuffed up her chest and said, “Okay, I’ll bring you to enjoy the scenery of our house.”
Seeing the two of them in a battle, Fan Yumei sat on the sofa without saying a word. She fiddled with her phone as if she had not heard anything. She was also very unhappy with Su Yan, so she let Zhao Lili deal with her.
