Chapter 815: Chapter 814: A Look That Makes One Feel Heartbroken Chapter 815: Chapter 814: A Look That Makes One Feel Heartbroken Lan Lan was shocked. Mrs. Si actually said that Qiao Xiaren and Si Limo being together was approved by her and the old master?
“Aunt, you’ve really misunderstood.” Lan Lan, still neither liking nor disliking, spoke gently, “I do like Limo, I’ve known him since I was a child. Loving him is not wrong at all, Aunt, you’ve been through this, don’t you understand the pain of liking someone? I’m not wrong, and you can’t force me not to like him–it’s unfair to me. I truly can’t control my heart.”
By the end, Lan Lan was somewhat choked up.
Lan Lan’s act was quite convincing, seemingly heart-wrenching at first glance.
Maria was about to comfort her but remembered what Mrs. Si had just said and withdrew her hand. She had thought Lan Lan was a simple, kind girl, but who knew she was also a person who twisted right and wrong.
It turned out that it wasn’t Qiao Xiaren intruding into her and this young master’s relationship, but Lan Lan who was fantasizing about someone else’s boyfriend and slandering them in front of others. Her character was sickening.
Recalling how she had baselessly accused Qiao Xiaren of intruding on someone else’s relationship last time made her face burn.
But she was a proud person, of course, she wouldn’t apologize to Qiao Xiaren.
As Lan Lan heartfully confessed, seeing Mrs. Si’s disgusted expression, Qiao Xiaren couldn’t help but want to laugh; Mrs. Si actually had the ability to recognize a white lotus, successfully avoiding all the blind spots of a mother-in-law, nearly becoming a forerunner.
“Hmm, maybe we really misunderstood you.” Qiao Xiaren said placidly as she took a sip of water, “Just now Aunt Si also expressed her feelings about you; she doesn’t like you, from the very beginning. As you said, one can’t control their emotions, so Aunt not liking you is also completely fine. Put yourself in her shoes, you should understand how Aunt feels about disliking you, Aunt isn’t wrong, and you can’t force Aunt to like you; it’s unfair to her, she can’t control her heart either!”
Si Zhilan almost laughed out loud but forcibly held back.
Lan Lan probably didn’t expect Qiao Xiaren to use her own words against her, her face a bit stiff, “What do you mean?”
“It means please don’t show up uninvited, it’s just too annoying. Wasn’t the lesson last time enough for you?”
Lan Lan’s suppressed rage almost erupted, she wanted to retort with cold sarcasm, recalling the aggressive scene when she barged into the Lan Family, she shut her mouth.
“If there’s nothing else, Miss Lan, please leave first.” Mrs. Si’s tone had gone from polite to cold. Lan Lan, despite her thick skin, couldn’t stay any longer and left with Maria after saying goodbye.
Mrs. Si withdrew her gaze, “In the future, there’s no need to be too polite with such women. I once thought well of her, but it turns out she’s no different from those pampered rich daughters.”
“I’ve never been polite to her.” Qiao Xiaren smiled lightly and nodded, “No worries, such people have no impact on me.”
“Let’s eat, and ignore these irrelevant people.”
Qiao Xiaren wasn’t thinking about Lan Lan just then, she had seen several missed calls on her phone, all long-distance calls from S Country.
Although she didn’t recognize the number, she had received several in a row, which could be something urgent. Just about to call back, her uncle suddenly called her, saying not to bother with Bai Qiuqing.
Connecting the dots, Qiao Xiaren knew pretty much who this unfamiliar number was.
