"Okay, sounds good!" Qiao Xuan smiled. Neither she nor Taotao mentioned the conflict with Yuezheng Ting to Shao Yunduan and Qi. That would just make the atmosphere worse.
The Yanchi Restaurant was expensive for a reason. The dishes were very well made, authentic and the four of them were very satisfied.
At the Yuezheng Family's mansion, the atmosphere was very strange.
Yuezheng Ting was crying to her mother, Ms. Mi about what happened during the day.
"…I managed to get the girl of the Xie Family to join me for lunch, but I was so humiliated! Those two girls must have recognized me but still humiliated me on purpose! They are in a good relationship with the Third Cousin and must have heard something from him, thus treating me ."
"How did they manage to befriend Third Cousin so they could humiliate me just to suck up to him! Will he make them rich? I won't let this go!"
"Third Cousin is bullying me. Mom, you have to help me! Those two countryside women have bullied me too!"
Ms. Mi got so angry but she took a deep breath and caressed Yuezheng Ting and said, "It is okay! I will ask him when he comes back what he means. How can he befriend some filthy people to bully his own cousin? How dare he!" Yuezheng Ting cried even more fiercely.
"Mom, I want him to help me get to know the Xie Family, or I will never leave him alone!"
"Okay, okay, don't worry!"
Yuezheng Xiao returned home and was summoned to his Second Aunt's place by the maid.
He raised his eyebrows, feeling surprised. Still he went there.
Seeing Yuezheng Ting there with a pair of red eyes as if she had been bullied, Yuezheng Xiao felt even more confused. She gave him an annoyed look which made him think about the previous instance. 'What are these two women thinking about doing again? Still planning to pester me?'
He could give one lipstick of each color to them as presents, but not for them to use as favors.
Ms. Mi smiled. "Nephew, who have you befriended these days? You are the Young Master of the Yuezheng Family, and we are a famous family who should not befriend those filthy and unimportant people. You need to stay away from those lowly, unruly folks so they wouldn't bully our family. Otherwise, it would turn us into a laughing stock!"
"I don't understand what Second Aunt is talking about, you can put it straightforwardly if you want to."
Yuezheng Ting could not help but retort. "Third Cousin, I met the two women of that family whom you and Young Master Xie ate a meal with. The two women bullied me today! They knew that I was your cousin, but they still humiliated me in public!"
Yuezheng Xiao's face turned serious.
Was Yuezheng Ting talking about Mrs. Shao and Taotao? They were definitely not like that.
Ms. Mi asked him instead. "Who are those two women? Where are they from? How did you get to know them? Maybe we have conducted business with them?"
Yuezheng Xiao knew that Ms. Mi was trying to cause trouble. He kept his connection a secret and said, "They don't have any business with us."
"We are just ordinary friends. Cousin, how about telling me what is really going on!"
Ms. Mi snorted and pursed her lips..
