DOOMSDAY ECSTASY CAVE (329)
329. WARN
Chu Youning was startled, she cowered and hid behind Shen Haoyue, "Everyone heard it in the meeting room that day, if you don't believe... you ask brother-in-law!"
Old master Jiang and Mother Jiang subconsciously looked at Jiang Qingyu, which embarrassed Jiang Qingyu. He never talks about other people's right or wrong, not to mention the person involved was right in front of him.
But... he did not refute. What else did Old master Jiang and Mother Jiang not understand? Their attitude towards Chen Yi became a lot more indifferent in an instant.
"Children don't understand anything and talk nonsense. Miss Chen, don't mind!" Lu Yiming came out to smooth things over with a smile. He knew that Chu Youning was not that well-behaved.
Interrupted by Lu Yiming's random words, Chen Yi couldn't explain clearly even if she wanted to. Also... how could Lu Yiming have the nerve to say that Chu Youning was a child?
Chu Youning's words were a bit blunt and vulgar, but have to say, it was very effective. What was the purpose of the Jiang family inviting Chen Yi to dinner this time? Of course, it was because they wanted to build a bridge between Chen Yi and Jiang Qingyu. So Chu Youning just said that Chen Yi was sick. Would they still dare to marry a sick woman to Jiang Qingyu?
To say the least, even if Chen Yi was found to be fine, the ghosts knows if she slept with that Steven, a man who can't move his steps when he sees a woman, and sexually abuses women to death. It was nauseating to even think about it. Was a woman who was involved with such a man worthy of such an excellent child of the Jiang family?
With the Jiang family's habit of thinking highly of themselves, they must feel that she was not worthy!
"Yueyue, don't just eat vegetables, drink a bowl of soup, I personally cooked that soup!" Mother Jiang said softly to Shen Haoyue. After a comparison with such a Chen Yi, Mother Jiang felt that Shen Haoyue was more pleasing to the eye. Not to mention that she was well-behaved and sensible, she was also physically and mentally clean, much better than those messy women outside.
Shen Haoyue's eyes widened in surprise, Mother Jiang had never been this good to her.
Shen Haoyue didn't react, but Jiang Qingyu did, and personally served her a bowl of soup, "Drink while it's hot!"
"Oh, okay, thank you mom..." Shen Haoyue took the soup with red eyes.
Jiang Qingyu conveniently took the initiative to pick up the previous task of smoothing things over and assisted Lu Yiming to close the lid on the matter. Chen Yi was like a mute eating coptis, she couldn't speak of the bitterness she was suffering from. Her expression was stiff, but the Jiang family at the table didn't seem to have seen it.
[哑巴吃黄连-yǎ ba chī huáng lián- a dumb person eating coptis(Chinese goldthread- Coptis chinensis, rhizome used in medicine)- It is an allegory, which means that there is unspeakable suffering.]
Chen Yi was a little confused. She didn't understand what was wrong with the Jiang family. Didn't they hate Chu Youning very much? Then how come they believed everything Chu Youning said? Don't they have any brains?
If it were anything else that they were talking about, the Jiang family might not really pay attention to Chu Youning, but what she said was closely related to Jiang Qingyu. They would rather kill by mistake than let it go. After all, Jiang Qingyu was the pillar that they depended on, and they couldn't afford to take a gamble.
Besides... the Jiang family was really not very smart, otherwise they wouldn't have done so many weird things. So no matter how exaggerated Chu Youning's acting skills were, they will believe it.
The most important point was that, Chen Yi may not know it because she had just returned, but there was no one in the capital's influential family circle that did not know of the huge information network Chu Youning controlled. So what Chu Youning said was very credible, even if she lied to them, they would rather just believe it than not...
The only thing worth mentioning was that Chu Youning's acting skills this time was really exaggerated. It's not that she can't act flawlessly, but she won't. She wanted to let Chen Yi have the feeling that everyone was drunk and she was sober alone. This way, Chen Yi will be even more frustrated and aggrieved.
Thinking of Chen Yi's heart collapsing in various ways, Chu Youning felt physically and mentally happy. She(Chen Yi) was still too tender to fight with her.
[嫩-nèn- tender. meaning. inexperienced/unskilled]
However, what Chu Youning did not expect was that before Chen Yi left, she sincerely pulled Shen Haoyue aside. She looked at Chu Youning guardedly, and then said in a low voice, "No matter what, I have to remind you, it's best to let that woman, Chu Youning, move out. Otherwise... you are just luring the wolf into the house!"
[引狼入室- yǐn láng rù shì- to lure the wolf into the house (idiom) / to introduce a potential source of trouble]
Chen Yi felt that Chu Youning was a green tea bitch, and Shen Haoyue allowing this kind of woman to approach Jiang Qingyu, was giving Chu Youning a chance to seduce him. Chen Yi originally thought that Jiang Qingyu could see Chu Youning's clumsy acting skills clearly, but she did not expect that even Jiang Qingyu's eyes were blind.
Therefore, no matter what angle she was coming from, she had to warn Shen Haoyue.
