Chapter 711: Chapter 685: All Can Be Understood by Young People
Xiao Qian added, “You were just curious, right? What kind of family can raise such an unmarriageable daughter? Now you see, it’s our Old Yu Family who has raised her.”
“Pfft!” Shuixian bet that Xiao Qian had been holding her breath since the beginning, waiting for this moment to say this sentence.
After Boss Qian said these words, the faces of the weird family members all twisted, the expression was really hard to describe in words.
Surprise, displeasure, awkwardness, shame… and a bit of anger at being caught, all kinds of expressions gathered together, making the scene quite spectacular.
“Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?” Liu Mei’s voice sounded very close.
“Nothing, just stick to the original plan. Your future in-laws are really ‘good’ at choosing a partner for their son—I’ll get you a pair of 2000-degree myopia glasses later, since only a highly myopic person could find such a…unique family.”
Xiao Qian gave a fair evaluation of the dumbfounded Swollen Eye Pao Xiaoqing.
For a period of time, Xiao Qian was bored and had summarized the probability of weird relatives appearing around Phoenix Men according to their medical records. It wasn’t too high, and Liu Mei was lucky to encounter such a low probability event by just finding a boyfriend.
“Sister-in-law, how come you are here?” Liu Mei came over, followed by a man who was just slightly taller than her.
Xiao Qian and Shuixian were both waiting to see what the rumored Phoenix Man looked like, but when they saw him…
They were a bit disappointed.
Liu Mei was tall among the girls, so although the man was taller than her, he didn’t look as upright as Liu Mei. He was on the lower side of average height with a gloomy temperament.
Yu Minglang was also very serious towards the outside world, but he would never give people a feeling of being sinister.
In comparison, this man would be crushed into dust by someone like Yu Minglang. His temperament was obviously not up to par.
Liu Mei and the man didn’t look well-matched standing next to each other. Shuixian even thought that he looked more like a bodyguard than a boyfriend, as their temperaments were not on the same level.
Shuixian glanced at Xiao Qian, as if asking: What kind of taste does your little cousin have?
Boss Qian shrugged, implying: What’s youth without experiencing a few scums?
“You guys…know each other?!” Swollen Eye Pao Xiaoqing never expected the plot to turn this way. They had just badmouthed Liu Mei a lot, but who would have thought that the two enchanting women beside them knew Liu Mei?
In Xiaoqing’s view, any woman who was more beautiful, had a better temperament, and had more money than her was an enchanting woman. She stubbornly and even paranoidly believed that these women got everything by relying on men, and if she were just a little prettier herself, she would do better than Xiao Qian and Shuixian.
This paranoid view was exactly the same as her mother’s.
Now they never expected that Xiao Qian was actually Liu Mei’s sister-in-law!
“She’s my sister-in-law, and I’m living at her house now. Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?” Liu Mei was sweating profusely.
She received a message from her boyfriend saying that his family was coming over. She originally wanted to meet them in person, but then Boss Qian suddenly told her in the morning that she had found a good place for her and Qiuqiu to check out. She asked Liu Mei and Qiuqiu to go negotiate the price themselves; if they didn’t go today, they would miss the chance to rent the place at such a low price.
After weighing the situation, Liu Mei decided to go see the place first and called Ma Lu to explain. She didn’t expect him to tell her that he had already been in Lin City for work two days ago and asked her to wait for him to go negotiate the price together.
When Liu Mei found out about this, she felt like a thunderbolt had struck her head. Why didn’t he tell her that he had arrived earlier?
The reason given by Ma Lu was that he was too busy with work to tell her or get in touch. However, Liu Mei still felt uncomfortable. If he was too busy before, why did he suddenly have time when she was going to see the place?
The visit to the venue was also not very pleasant. Ma Lu seemed to deliberately prevent Liu Mei and Qiuqiu from successfully renting it out, causing both sides to part on bad terms. They didn’t manage to secure the venue, and Liu Mei ended up arriving late.
Xiao Qian’s mouth was smiling, but her eyes were devoid of emotion. Her cold gaze swept across the bizarre family who were all dumbfounded at the sight.
“I’m here so I can hear other people discussing our matters in the Old Yu Family. You guys were talking, right?”
None of them could muster a smile.
There was nothing more awkward than this.
Some people enjoyed gossip so much, but when confronted face-to-face, they instantly cowered. The more they gossiped, the more cowardly they became. This family couldn’t even face Xiao Qian’s open gaze.
“Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?” Liu Mei didn’t understand Xiao Qian’s insinuation but caught the awkwardness in the room.
“Turns out you’re her sister-in-law. We didn’t know earlier, or we could have had dinner together! That would have been so nice,” the middle-aged woman was the first to come back to her senses.
“If you had known it was me, would you still have made so many comments about Liu Mei and our Old Yu Family?” Xiao Qian’s words were gentle, but they gave a sense of being pressed hard.
Mother Ma’s forehead broke out in cold sweat as her smile became more awkward. She had gossiped and badmouthed others for a lifetime, but she had never been caught so embarrassingly red-handed. Xiao Qian obviously wouldn’t give her any way out, and the atmosphere was too awkward.
The man beside Liu Mei carefully looked Xiao Qian and Shuixian up and down, especially lingering on Xiao Qian’s face for several seconds.
Although Liu Mei was very pretty, she belonged to the healthy and energetic type of girl, which was different from Xiao Qian. However, the man obviously found Xiao Qian to be even more outstanding, and her companion Shuixian wasn’t bad either.
Looking at beautiful women was an inherent hobby for most men, but after Xiao Qian had already declared herself as Liu Mei’s sister-in-law, continuing to look at her so intently in front of Liu Mei, made Xiao Qian judge that this man was not only unattractive but also had a bad character.
“I think your family should give our Old Yu Family an explanation for those words just now.” Xiao Qian, seemingly immune to the awkward atmosphere, insisted on getting a statement from Ma Family.
“An explanation for what? What do you have to do with it? You’re just a sister-in-law, not her parents, and you’re so arrogant…” Ma Qing expressed her dissatisfaction.
“What happened just now?” Ma Lu asked.
“Oh, nothing really. Your sister just casually said some unimportant things that were overheard by Liu Mei’s sister-in-law. It’s not a big deal. Young people’s words don’t carry much weight, and once she’s married, she’ll be someone else’s family. So, Sister-in-law, don’t get mad. We all understand young people.” Mother Ma seemed to be mediating, but her words were actually quite harsh.
The implication was clear: my daughter is young and her words don’t count, and you’re just a sister-in-law, so your words don’t count either. Let’s all just drop it, okay?@@novelbin@@
Liu Mei still didn’t know what had happened and was confused. Xiao Qian wiped her hands with a napkin.
“Oh, so what young people do is all understandable, right?”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
“Slap!” Xiao Qian’s hand landed accurately on Ma Qing’s face with all her strength, instantly turning Ma Qing’s face red.
“I’m still young, so hitting her once should be understandable, right? According to your logic, since I married into the Old Yu Family, I am part of the Old Yu Family. I represent the Old Yu Family in beating up those who badmouthed us. There’s nothing wrong with that, right?”
What do you think?
