“Don’t compare me to a cat. Hurry up and go home. I still have to go back and write my thesis!”

Wen Xin glanced at Chengxi with dissatisfaction. She changed her position and continued to eat her corn.

Looking at Wen Xin’s posture and state, Mu Chengxi increasingly felt that she was like a kitten, extremely adorable.

Madam Zhao’s request for Zhao Yuzheng and Geng Qiu to break off the engagement had alarmed Old Madam Zhao, who was already preparing to rest.

Old Madam Zhao heard the sound and came downstairs. She saw Zhao Yuzheng confronting Madam Zhao stubbornly.

“What are you arguing about? You were the one who got Yuzheng and Geng Qiu together, and now you’re the one who separated them. Look at you, you still have the bearing of a noble lady, just like a wild shrew!” Old Madam Zhao looked at Madam Zhao coldly.

Mrs. Zhao’s expression became very ugly when she heard what Old Madam

Zhao said about her. She knew that from the day she entered the Zhao family, Old Madam Zhao had disliked her for not having a good temperament. She always said that even if she could play the piano, she did not have the temperament of a pianist. This had always been a blow to her.

Now that the old madam had said such unpleasant words to describe her, she could not control her emotions even more.

“You said that I’m like a wild shrew. Isn’t it because you despise my background? Although I was born into a small family, my family is still a scholarly family. My parents are professors from famous universities, and I’m not like Wen Xin, who you want to force on Yuzheng. She’s just a country bumpkin. Other than being pretty, she’s useless!”

“If you didn’t force that wild girl to YuZheng, would I have no choice but to let YuZheng date that Geng Qiu? All the consequences now are caused by you!” Madam Zhao was in a fit of anger, so she spoke without holding back.

Her words made everyone in the living room gasp. No one expected her to dare to say such words.

“Jian Ya, your words are too much. How can you talk to Mom like that? Apologize to Mom!” Zhao Hongyuan, who was watching the financial news, couldn’t stand it anymore. He spoke in a low and cold voice.

“Why should I apologize? Am I wrong? I really don’t know why all of them have fallen for that wild lass, Wen Xin. Those people have all been bewitched by her beauty.”

“Who are you talking about? Who was bewitched by Xin girl’s beauty?” Old Madam Zhao didn’t care about the nasty words that Jian Ya had said. Instead, she was very concerned about what she had said about Wen Xin.

“Who else could it be? Your other precious grandson is always following Wen Xin around like a lackey, and that Xi Master from the capital. The most infuriating one is that Liang Luoyu. In front of so many people today, he actually embarrassed me in public. How unlucky. I didn’t expect to meet them.”

She was angry when she thought about how Liang Luoyu and Mu Chengxi defended Wen Xin. They had called her Second Aunt, but their words made her feel ashamed.

“I heard Second Aunt scolding me as soon as I entered the door. Why isn’t the lesson I learned in the hall of No.l Middle School enough? Do you want to eat more?” Just as Jian Ya finished speaking, Liang Luoyu and Mu Bei walked in, led by the butler. Although Liang Luoyu had a smile on his face, her eyes were extremely cold.

“Why are you here so late?”

Old Madam Zhao was very happy to see Liang Luoyu. She completely ignored Liang Luoyu’s tone and patted the seat beside her, beckoning Liang Luoyu to go over. “Come and sit quickly. The butler will prepare tea for Young Master Liang. ”

“I heard someone complaining about me the moment I entered the door. It seems that I came at the wrong time!” Liang Luoyu retracted the coldness in his eyes and walked over to sit beside Old Madam Zhao with a smile.

“What nonsense are you talking about? Why wouldn’t you be welcome in our house? Did you even need to pick a time? Why are you here so late?”

“I originally wanted to discuss a collaboration with Second Uncle. Our Liang family has just taken over the Geng family’s core project. I once heard that the Zhao Corporation has a partnership with the Geng family in this area. Since we’re all relatives, I thought we shouldn’t share the benefits with outsiders. I wonder if Second Uncle has any thoughts of collaborating with me?”

When Zhao Hongyuan heard Liang Luoyu’s words, he was so excited that he almost stood up. He had been thinking of ways to win Liang Luoyu over for the past few days, and he hadn’t expected Liang Luoyu to hand him the opportunity to work together.

“I’m familiar with this project. If we can work with them, it’ll definitely be good. When we worked with the Geng family, there was a special department in charge of this matter. However, after Geng Zewei took over, he unceremoniously cut off the cooperation. That department is now on vacation. If we confirm the cooperation, they can immediately return to their posts.”

Zhao Hongyuan’s tone was calm and steady, but Liang Luoyu could tell from his words that he was eager to cooperate. After all, it was a big piece of meat, and everyone wanted a piece of it.

Liang Luoyu sat lazily on the sofa and stretched his back. He looked at Jian Ya, sitting opposite him, and smiled lightly. “I came here with sincerity. However, when I heard Second Aunt’s dissatisfaction with me just now, I suddenly want to reconsider our cooperation. After all, Second Aunt feels that I’m unlucky!”

Liang Luoyu’s voice was soft and slow, but to Zhao Hongyuan, it was like a heavy hammer smashing into his heart.

“Is there some misunderstanding between the two of you? We’re all family.

Can’t we just make things clear? There’s no need to hurt the harmony!”

Zhao Hongyuan looked coldly at Jian Ya, who was hesitating to speak. At this moment, Jian Ya understood that Liang Luoyu was deliberately making things difficult for her. So, she tactfully shut her mouth and chose to remain silent.

“It’s probably not a misunderstanding, right? Otherwise, why would Second

Aunt be so resentful? I did say some unpleasant things in front of everyone, but I was also worried that Second Aunt would say something overboard and anger Master Xi.”

“Master Xi?” When Jian Ya was complaining, Zhao Hongyuan had heard her mention Master Xi. However, he didn’t take it to heart. He didn’t think that it would be a big deal.

“Does this matter have anything to do with Master Xi?”

“Of course. The wild girl that Second Aunt mentioned just now is now Master Xi’s girlfriend. Even Old Madam Mu has acknowledged that. She even gets people to send her small gifts from time to time. However, Master Xi stopped her and said Miss Wen was still young, so he didn’t bring her back to the capital.”

“Today, in order to make Geng Qiu happy, Second Aunt publicly expressed that her son did not fancy Wen Xin…”

As Liang Luoyu spoke, he deliberately looked at Zhao Yuzheng and raised his eyebrows at him.

“They even said that Wen Xin was deliberately trying to get close to Zhao Yuyao. They said that Wen Xin was unable to get close to Zhao Yuzheng and wanted to get close to Zhao Yuyao.. Only a simple-minded fool like Zhao Yuyao would like Wen Xin…”
