Chapter 60 - Chapter 60 - 60 Daughter-in-law (2/2)
“`
Moreover, even after the divorce, she still had visitation rights to Tuan Tuan.
The hotel was not far from Chen Yu’s shop; in less than twenty minutes, she parked the car in front.
It was exactly four twenty in the early morning.
Inside the shop, as expected, there was no one around, not even the waitstaff had arrived.
Fang Yuan tiptoed into the shop and was immediately confronted by Li Lan, who was tidying up tables and chairs.
“Mom, where’s Tuan Tuan?”
Even though Fang Yuan kept her voice very low, Li Lan was still startled.
She put down the rag she was holding and studied the person in front of her for a long time.
Not until Fang Yuan pulled down her face mask a little did Li Lan recognize her.
“Isn’t this the great star Fang? What brings you here?” Li Lan deliberately raised her voice.
Fang Yuan suddenly felt afraid and quickly looked around.
Being a public figure now, if paparazzi captured her, they would immediately delve into her original family.
The headlines in tomorrow’s newspapers would reveal all her past.
“Mom, keep your voice down. I’m just here to see Tuan Tuan and then I’ll leave.”
Tong Ya, who had just served the first pot of spicy braised delicacies, saw a customer and greeted them warmly.
“Hello, we are not open yet, we only have braised flavors…”
Before she could finish, Li Lan pulled Tong Ya over.
“Daughter-in-law, stay away from this woman, watch out she doesn’t scratch you!”
Tong Ya was taken aback for a moment, that term ‘daughter-in-law’ was quite pleasing to her, even giving her the illusion that she was already together with Chen Yu.
“Daughter-in-law?” Fang Yuan’s eyes widened: “She is?”
“Can’t you tell? Doesn’t she and Chen Yu make a well-matched couple?” Li Lan’s words were quite sharp.
After all, Fang Yuan had been extremely mean when she stayed at their house.
She even forbid them from visiting Chen Yu in the city.
Now that they were divorced, and Chen Yu had such an outstanding woman like Tong Ya by his side, Li Lan finally had the chance to regain her dignity.
At this moment, Tong Ya also adjusted her breathing and brought out the aura of a lady of the house.
“Yes, I am Chen Yu’s wife. May I ask what you want?”
Li Lan snorted lightly: “Daughter-in-law, she is the woman who abandoned your husband!”
Although the phrasing was awkward, it gave Tong Ya confidence.
“Oh, you are that actress, aren’t you?” Tong Ya’s demeanor suddenly changed.
The dignified and elegant wife she had just presented suddenly turned into an overwhelming and assertive stance.
Fang Yuan’s visit to see Tuan Tuan was already surreptitious and not a proud moment.
The almost oppressive aura emanating from Tong Ya made it hard for Fang Yuan to breathe.
She had not anticipated that after the divorce from her, not only had Chen Yu’s career flourished, but he also had such a perfect woman by his side.
“I don’t have much time; I just want to see Tuan Tuan. Where’s Chen Yu? I need to speak with him!”
Tong Ya immediately stepped to the side, blocking the view of the kitchen.
“My husband is very busy with numerous matters and furthermore, Tuan Tuan has school tomorrow morning, so it’s not convenient for you to see him.”
Fang Yuan clenched her teeth, her face showing frustration.
But her current status came with many limitations; she dared not make a scene, nor linger too long.
Who knows if any paparazzi will show up among the guests later.
“Fine, you will remember this!”
Fang Yuan left these words somewhat helplessly as she hurriedly exited and drove away.
At this moment, Tong Ya was exceptionally excited, although she knew that Li Lan had used her as a shield to some extent.
But at least, her status as daughter-in-law was acknowledged.
