Fang Yumei wore a red tight-fitting low V evening dress at the entrance, shaking hands with Xi Yuanshan and talking non-stop, occasionally bending over with a coquettish smile.
Xi Yuanshan also smiled, and the sickly look on his face faded a bit.
Uninformed guests arrived, thinking these two were Xi Ruzhu’s parents.
It wasn’t until Gu Qiusha, who was busy arranging tea and snacks for the reporters, stumbled upon this scene and curiously asked, "Who is this..."
"I’m Fang Yumei, are you Zhuzhu’s mom?" Fang Yumei looked up and down at Gu Qiusha, who was dressed loosely and without much style, somewhat snidely saying, "You don’t care enough about your child, which will delay Zhuzhu. Fortunately, there’s Brother Xi, such a good father."
Hearing the word ’father’, Xi Yuanshan felt a peculiar itch in his heart: "She’s just like that, slow to react, saying it won’t help."
Caught off guard, Gu Qiusha was heartbroken to be criticized by her husband and an outsider teaming up against her.
She couldn’t show her displeasure in front of guests, but she wasn’t a pushover either, so she calmly said, "Teacher Fang, you’ve worked hard, wearing so little in the cold outside, please come sit inside."
Fang Yumei wanted to continue chatting with Xi Yuanshan, but who knew this Zhuzhu’s mom was so oblivious, actually sending her away?
She scoffed lightly, waved flirtatiously to Xi Yuanshan for now, and then swayed into the concert hall.
Gu Qiusha pursed her lips at the woman’s back, hmph, showing skin isn’t anything special, I looked better back when I wore more conservative clothes.
After Fang Yumei left, Xi Yuanshan’s face fell, and he scolded, "What kind of attitude is that? Is that how you talk to a teacher? Did you leave your brain at home today, offending your child’s teacher ?"
Gu Qiusha had endured several days of anger and could no longer bear it, she retorted softly, "That kind of woman is a child’s teacher? I’m afraid she’ll teach my child bad things! What Brother Xi, what Ah Mei, what does she take male parents for, fishing?"
Xi Yuanshan’s expression changed abruptly.
He yelled, "You peeked at my phone? I didn’t expect you to become a yellow-faced woman and still do such sneaky things, truly shameless!"
Gu Qiusha’s face turned pale.
She never expected her husband to describe her with such nasty words.
"I didn’t look at your phone." Despair overcame her heart, she was too tired to defend herself any further.
But Xi Yuanshan, out of anger and shame, insisted she had peeked into his private records: "How did you know about Ah Mei if you didn’t look?"
Gu Qiusha really wanted to laugh, "Is it appropriate for a married man like you to call someone Ah Mei?"
Xi Yuanshan: "That’s my freedom! You’re controlling too much! As long as I conduct myself properly, you have no right to interfere with my freedom of association!"
Gu Qiusha’s throat was too sore to speak: "You conduct yourself properly, do you?"
Xi Yuanshan avoided her gaze: "Of course!"
Gu Qiusha really wanted to challenge him, would he dare to now go to that so-called Teacher Mei, and say that he only sees her as an ordinary teacher! Would he dare to delete her WeChat on the spot! And let her be the one handling communications with the teacher from now on!
Just as she was about to speak, Xi Ruzhu came running over, holding her dress excitedly: "Dad, Mom, Mr. Huangfu has arrived!"
The words on Gu Qiusha’s lips were swallowed back.
Huangfu Yaxian, invited by second brother Xi Langyue specially from the Imperial Capital for his sister, was a music master and also the dean of the Imperial University Music College, an important guest tonight.
Dealing with her husband was a small matter, neglecting the guests was a big deal, so Gu Qiusha discerned between primary and secondary matters and calmly said, "Let’s go greet the guests first!"
