“You’re my second favorite person in the world, after my sister. Thank you, Brother-in-law!”
Uncle Li was speechless.
Young Madam’s brother was so good at flattering him.
He made Young Master so happy.
Uncle Li suddenly felt that Young Master had smiled more in the time since his marriage than in the past decade combined.
In the past, Young Master barely smiled all year round.
Although Young Madam’s family wasn’t so well-off, and her family wasn’t considered compatible to the Mo’s, the fact that she was able to make Young Master so happy was enough.
Young Master’s happiness was all that mattered.
But of course, this was just his personal opinion.
As for Madam, who placed much more importance on her daughter-in-law’s background, it might be a different case.
…
It was a middle-aged aunt who came out to bring Qiao Mianmian in.
Just like Mother Su, this aunt liked Qiao Mianmian a lot too. She had long treated Qiao Mianmian as Young Madam Su.
She, too, found it a pity when she knew that Qiao Mianmian broke up with Su Ze.
“Miss Qiao, you and Young Master have really broken up?” She sounded rather dejected. “You’ve known each other for so long and been so close. Why the sudden breakup?”
Qiao Mianmian simply said, “We just aren’t compatible. Aunt Song, is Su Ze at home?”
“Young Master is at home.”
Aunt Song suddenly remembered something and added, “Oh, Miss Qiao, your sister is here too.”
Aunt Song didn’t know about what had happened in the living room.
She just found it strange that Qiao Anxin came to visit out of the blue.
Second Miss Qiao hardly came alone to visit, so she wasn’t sure what she was doing here.
Qiao Anxin stopped in her tracks.
“Qiao Anxin is here?” She couldn’t help but frown.
Aunt Song nodded. “Yes. She was just speaking to Young Master and Madam in the living room. I’m not sure what happened, but Madam flared up and hurled a teacup. I heard Second Miss Qiao got scared to tears.
“Madam’s temper has always been very good and she rarely ever flares up. I wonder who provoked her.”
Qiao Mianmian pursed her lips and kept silent.
She figured that Mother Su must have lost her temper when she found out that Su Ze and Qiao Anxin were together.
Although Mother Su loved Su Ze a lot, she definitely wasn’t one to condone his mistakes.
She was definitely angry to know that Su Ze cheated on her.
…
In the living room.
Qiao Anxin saw Su Ze and Qiao Anxin right away.
They were standing so close to each other that they were like they were conjoined twins.
Qiao Anxin seemed to be crying while Su Ze gently wiped the tears off her face.
Qiao Mianmian felt disgusted seeing how he acted like a gentleman.
Standing opposite them was Mother Su, whose expression was awful and whose eyes were still filled with fire.
“Madam, Young Master, Miss Qiao is here.” Aunt Song called out.
Mother Su immediately looked up. Upon seeing Qiao Mianmian, her eyes lit up for a moment before they went red.
“Mianmian.”
She walked towards Qiao Mianmian and gave her a hug.
She then started crying. “The Su family has let you down. I gave birth to a scum, we’ve really let you down.”
Qiao Mianmian was a little stunned at first. But seeing how badly Mother Su was crying, she patted her on the back gently. “Aunt Su, don’t cry. I’ve never blamed you.”
