After Marrying Him, the Ending Has Changed

Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Pouring Tea as an Apology

Director Zhou’s face grew even darker as he questioned them in a condescending tone, “Is this how you people in the countryside treat guests?”

He had always been flattered and pleased by others; when had anyone ever spoken to him this way?!

Just within ten minutes of arriving at the Jiang Family’s home, he had been verbally abused by two people, and it was enough to make smoke come out of his seven orifices.

But Jiang Changhai was not intimidated by his stern look, and with raised eyebrows, he boldly responded, “We country folks welcome guests who come to our door, not those who come to stir up trouble!”

Well said!

Jiang Mianmian silently clapped her hands in her heart, thinking her dad was utterly domineering at that moment.

Flushed with anger, Director Zhou retorted, “I am the director of the county’s garment factory. By disrespecting me like this, I will report this matter to your town’s leaders!”

Hearing this, Zhang Guihua instantly became nervous and quickly said, “Director Zhou, please don’t be angry. My eldest son has always been a troublemaker, and he never went to school. Please don’t stoop to his level.”

She was terrified that he would actually go and complain, especially since her eldest son was known for being lazy and cunning, with plenty of misdeeds to his name.

The couple from the second room also looked panicked, while also feeling a bit resentful towards their older brother for not controlling his temper in front of an official.

Seeing how afraid they were, Director Zhou arrogantly said, “I’ll overlook it if he apologizes and serves me tea, and then—”

Before he could finish, Yu Cheng coldly interrupted him, “Stop putting on airs, nothing more than a sack of rice and wine bags who climbed up by connections.”

“What did you say?” Director Zhou glared at him furiously.

“I said you are a useless person who climbed up by connections. Without that woman’s coattail relationships, a fool like you would never become a director,” Yu Cheng slowly repeated with a tone and look of disdain and arrogance.

Director Zhou was itching with rage as he had indeed climbed from a regular worker to director through his cousin’s influence.

But nobody dared to tear down his façade to his face, except for this young rascal before him!

And to make matters worse, his surname was Yu, from the prestigious Yu Family, so Director Zhou couldn’t touch him at all!

Grinding his teeth, Director Zhou said, “Yu Cheng, don’t go too far! Remember, I am still your elder.”

Yu Cheng sneered, “An elder? Go ask that woman if you qualify.”

Seeing what Zhou Min was up to that day, he immediately understood the motives behind his stepmother’s actions.

Anyone so willingly cooperating with his stepmother wasn’t likely to be a good person either.

“You, you…” Zhou Min, unable to hit or scold the esteemed young master, was almost unable to catch his breath.

“I won’t stoop to arguing with an ignorant child like you.”

Taking a deep breath to suppress his anger, he pointed at a pile of high-end gift boxes on the table and said to the Jiang family members, “All these are gifts of thanks from my cousin.”

At this, Zhang Guihua’s face instantly lit up like a blooming chrysanthemum, and she offered a polite response, “Oh my, how could we accept all this?”

But her eyes were firmly glued to the items on the table, and she was internally overjoyed!

Her eldest son had really outdone himself in value this time!

The others also turned their gaze toward the gifts, marveling at such luxurious and fashionable items they were seeing for the first time.

Jiang Mianmian’s eyes sparkled: She thought she saw chocolate!

Seeing their awe, Director Zhou’s eyes held a hint of contempt: “Besides these items, there’s also five hundred yuan.”
