Chapter 42: 042: Manners and Etiquette
“Jing Qian, why are you here so early in the morning? Haven’t I told you this before? Both you and Ah Yi are artists. You may be a couple in real life, but both of you are still working your way up in the entertainment industry. Therefore, you shouldn’t let anyone know about your relationship.
“Other than that, you’re married now and have become the daughter-in-law of the Zhan family. If they found out that you came all the way here looking for Qin Yi at such an hour, they would be very unhappy about it. What would you do if they withdrew their investment because of this?!”
When Jing Qian heard Mother Qin’s lecture, Jing Qian was about to slap the woman, who didn’t even know what was happening, but the sudden palpitations in her heart stopped her.
She knew that this was because of the fear and respect that the previous owner had towards Mother Qin.
This was the mother of the man she loved, so she cared a lot about Mother Qin’s attitude towards her.
Mother Qin was exactly like Qin Yi, the GTB. Everything that they had and used belonged to Jing Qin, but they still acted superior towards her. They definitely didn’t have enough of a conscience to be nice to the person who was supporting their luxurious life.
Jing Qian took a look at Mother Qin and suppressed the itchiness coming from her palm. After a while, the palpitations stopped.
It was none of her business if the previous owner still cared about this woman. She was no longer the owner of this body and the woman in front of her was just air to Jing Qian. She decided not to slap her, opting to totally ignore the woman.
When Jing Qian did not say a single word and immediately walked past her to go towards the staircase, Mother Qin frowned. She spoke up in an unpleasantly, loud tone, “Jing Qian! I was talking to you! Did you hear what I said?!”
However, Jing Qian ignored her and continued walking towards the staircase.
Mother Qin was a little dumbfounded, but mostly she felt rage.
The rage was due to being ignored.
For the past two years, while Qin Yi and Jing Qian were dating, she always prefered Jing Lu, who was more loved by the Jing family, over Jing Qian, who was completely abandoned. Therefore, no matter how nice Jing Qian had been to Qin Yi, Mother Qin never allowed Jing Qian to be too close to her, and did not show her any type of kindness.
But still, this woman was head over heels for Qin Yi, even when Mother Qin was mean to her, Jing Qian would still respect her.
But now…
Mother Qin dashed towards the stairs. Within two or three steps, she stood right in front of Jing Qian, blocking her way up the staircase and screamed in rage, “Jing Qian! You walked into someone’s house without permission and didn’t even greet me before going upstairs. Isn’t that too much, to just ignore the house’s owner?! No matter what happened, you are a young woman brought up from a wealthy family, you shouldn’t just run into my son’s room early in the morning. Didn’t you ever learn a thing or two about manners and etiquette?”
The spot where Mother Qin stood was a few steps higher than Jing Qian’s, which is why at this moment, she glared down at Jing Qian condescendingly. It was a furious look, similar to that of someone guarding treasure against a thief.
But as Mother Qin continued to glare, the look in her eyes started changing.
This was because as she furiously stared at Jing Qian, the opposite party also stared back at her.
Although Jing Qian’s eyes looked dull, the way she was staring back at Mother Qin sent chills down her spine.
This feeling… It was similar to being stared at by a ferocious beast.
Mother Qin felt like if she were to move an inch, the other person would pounce on her and eat her up.
“You’re living such a good life with things that I have provided for you, and yet you still look at me like this? At least a dog would be grateful to me if I gave it food! None of you are even worth being compared to a dog! How dare you talk to me about manners and etiquette?! Is there something wrong with your brain?!”
