As soon as she entered, she saw a middle-aged woman in exquisite and noble clothes sitting by the window enjoying tea. Wen Qian guessed that she might be Zhou Shilin's aunt, the current Mrs. Zhou.
Too.
In the hearts of the Zhou family, she was just a village girl with no merit and who only wanted to cling to power. Naturally, she was not worthy of the condescension of the powerful Zhou Feng. She chuckled and walked over to sit down.
"You're looking for me?"
Mrs. Zhou raised her eyes and scanned Wen Qian's whole body with an extremely harsh look. After a while, she snorted softly: "You are uncultured, did I let you sit down?"
"Do you want me to stand and listen to the lecture?"
Wen Qian is neither humble nor arrogant, with a slight smile in her eyes.
"You are nothing here to me. I respect you by calling you. But if you want to show your respect as an elder or mother-in-law in front of me, then give up this idea as soon as possible. After all, Zhou Shilin has not acknowledged you. You said Is this true?"
Mrs. Zhou's expression froze.
She had been enjoying herself for many years, and no one would support her wherever she went. This was the first time in recent years that she had lost her face. She was slapped in the face by a rural girl, and she was about to have a seizure at the sight of her.
Wen Qian didn't give her a chance to speak.
He smiled and said: "You are an educated person. Naturally, you will not be as knowledgeable as me, a rural girl with no knowledge. I am a person who grew up in the countryside. Please bear with me if my words may conflict with you."
She is not afraid of Mrs. Zhou at all.
Don't say that he and Zhou Shilin are in a cold war, and they might break up. Even if they don't break up, Zhou Shilin's attitude toward Mrs. Zhou will be his own. There is no reason to go beyond Zhou Shilin to please someone he hates.
Mrs. Zhou was speechless.
After a long time, he snorted softly.
"What a sharp-tongued country girl. People who don't know the truth will be fooled by your delicate face. To be honest, you amaze me. Over the years, I have seen many beautiful girls. You are considered top-notch, no wonder you can charm Ah Shi, but what else do you have besides a face?"
"as far as I know……"
After a pause, Mrs. Zhou's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and she said coolly: "Your private life in the country is not clean."
The original owner did have someone he liked when he was in the country.
Even if Wen Qian didn't admit it, the Zhou family could find out. She didn't intend to deny it, but changed the topic: "Mrs. Zhou, who hasn't passed it yet? However, Zhou Shilin and I were innocent. He knows one thing better than you, not to mention..."
As she spoke, she chuckled.
"Aren't you a person with a past? As far as I know, your past is more exciting than mine. So, from what standpoint do you sit here and accuse me with a condescending attitude?"
Mrs. Zhou was extremely embarrassed when old events were brought up suddenly.
Over the years, her status has grown along with Zhou Feng's. No one has dared to mention the past for many years. Unexpectedly, Wen Qian dared. Who gave her the courage!
She was about to take action.
Before she could make any move, she was stopped by Zhou Shilin who strode forward. The tall man looked at Mrs. Zhou with a stern face and looked at Mrs. Zhou without any warmth. He pulled Wen Qian up and protected her behind him, with cool air exuding all over his body.
The voice is colder.
"Try touching her."
Mrs. Zhou's face changed slightly.
She didn't expect Zhou Shilin to come over so quickly. Looking at his iceberg-like face, she felt a little scared. But then she thought about it, everything she did was for the benefit of the Zhou family, so she instantly Confidence.
He began to preach earnestly.
"Ah Shi, I know you have always had a problem with me. No matter how you treat me, my heart for you is the same as Shi An. You are also the child I watched grow up. I hope you can have a career and family. Double harvest.”
"You know what the Zhou family is like."
"Even if you don't marry a well-matched daughter-in-law, you must at least have a clean family background and a dignified character. But this Comrade Wen is sharp-tongued, disrespectful to his elders, and has an improper personal style. If you marry such a woman, you will be punished by others. What a joke!”
Listening to these earnest words, Zhou Shilin smiled harshly.
"Who are you kidding?"
"If you want a joke, I should also laugh at you and the old man. Haven't you done enough things to make people laugh? You are not afraid of jokes. What do I have to be afraid of? Besides, no matter how high the lintel of the Zhou family is, it has nothing to do with me. Let's go. To this day, I have never relied on the Zhou family, so don’t try to interfere in my life, you are not qualified!"
Mrs. Zhou was so shocked by these words that she almost fainted.
She was trembling slightly all over and pointed at Wen Qian and said, "Okay, I'm not qualified to care about you. What about her? Her private life is chaotic. How dare you want such a woman? If word spreads, it will bring shame on the Zhou family." Don’t forget, you are also a member of the Zhou family!”
Zhou Shilin directly separated her hand.
"Why can't my wife tolerate your irresponsible remarks? If I hear a rumor about Wen Qian in the future, the debt will be on your head. You should consider it carefully. Also, go back and tell the old man that I There will be no divorce."
Mrs. Zhou: "..."
Her usually well-maintained face was distorted. She watched Zhou Shilin leave with Wen Qian, and she was so angry that she almost pouted.
Wei Yi is right.
Zhou Shilin was really fascinated by Wen Qian. She had to go home quickly to discuss it with Lao Zhou, and she could take special measures if necessary.
***
Here, Wen Qian and Zhou Shilin walked out of the teahouse.
Neither of them spoke. After walking for a long time, Zhou Shilin took the initiative to break the silence and spoke softly: "Wen Qian, I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."
Wen Qian's mood was a little complicated.
Just now in the teahouse, the moment Zhou Shilin appeared, her heart beat wildly. Especially when she saw him standing in front of her domineeringly, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Maybe……
A thought came to her mind, and she quickly suppressed it, put her hands in her coat pockets, and pretended to be relaxed: "It's okay, she didn't take advantage of me, but you. If you said that about her just now, will she talk to you?" Dad is filing a complaint?"
Zhou Shilin was naturally not afraid.
"The old man can't do anything to me."
Wen Qian knew that his relationship with his family had always been tense, so he simply didn't ask any more questions and changed the subject: "How did you know I was here?"
"Meng Weiyi went to find me..."
A trace of uneasiness flashed across Zhou Shi Linying's face. He turned to stare at Wen Qian's expression and explained seriously: "Don't get me wrong, she and I have nothing to do. She took the initiative to find me this afternoon and spilled the beans. I I just found out you came to Beijing."
It's Meng Weiyi again.
Wen Qian's heart was filled with anger, and her face was not that good-looking. She muttered something haunting in a low voice, and then she saw Zhou Shilin's face change, and there was a bit of grievance in his expression.
He asked: "Do you hate me so much?"
"What?"
Wen Qian didn't react, stopped and looked at the tall man in front of her in confusion.
Zhou Shilin was helpless and aggrieved: "You said my ghost is still there."
These days, he was afraid of making Wen Qian angry, so he had tried his best to reduce his presence in front of her. He didn't expect that she would hate him so much, so he had to pay attention to what Wen Qian said. Is she really going to divorce him?
