Chapter 593: Chapter 599: Absolutely Not Allowed
Just a delusional nymphomaniac woman, Su Wenyue couldn’t be bothered to entangle with her more. After a dose of sarcasm that gave Xiao Xi a satisfying outlet, Su Wenyue was too lazy to listen to any remaining words Zhou Yao had and bluntly kicked her out. Indeed, she was quite mighty. Xiao Xi, who watched from the side, found it extremely gratifying. To deal with a self-righteous and shameless woman like Miss Zhou, Madam’s way was both effective and satisfying!
The servants in the mansion weren’t surprised by Su Wenyue’s rough treatment of Zhou Yao, and some even thought that as Madam, she should be just like that. After all, Su Wenyue had done harsher things in the past, like beating up a woman Han Yu had placed outside. Although that was just a drama according to Han Yu’s wishes, other people didn’t know that; thus, seeing Su Wenyue only using her words this time, without getting physical, was already very polite in their eyes.
“Madam, you were simply too powerful! Miss Zhou’s nose must have been bent out of shape with frustration. Her look of utter defeat because she couldn’t utter a word in the face of Madam’s rebuttal was hilarious! And you even blasted her out of here. Let’s see if she has the face to come back after this!” Xiao Xi said with a giggly laugh, deliberately showing the triumph of a nasty person, which amused Su Wenyue.
“You! Now that you’ve vented and seen the excitement, get back to work quickly,” Su Wenyue said as she tapped on Xiao Xi’s forehead.
Watching Xiao Xi nearly hop away, she murmured to herself, “What an oddity this woman is, I really have no idea how she was raised.”
Even in her previous life, when she had been spoiled by her parents, Su Wenyue hadn’t been naive enough to lose all common sense like that. She wondered if Zhou Yao was genuinely foolish or just pretending. Although Zhou Yao hadn’t shown any flaws, a woman’s intuition led Su Wenyue to suspect that Miss Zhou wasn’t as she appeared on the surface. But if all of this was an act, what purpose would Zhou Yao have in doing so?
At this thought, Su Wenyue also recalled the gathered information. Not only Zhou Yao, but also within the City Lord Mansion, Lord Liu Wenyong’s three sons were at odds with each other, engaged in vicious internal conflicts. Peicheng’s waters ran deep indeed, Su Wenyue mused.
Regardless, whether true or false, since Zhou Yao had the audacity to provoke her by coming to her door, she deserved a profound lesson, ensuring no one would mistake her for an easy target. With this one instance, she had to make it clear to Zhou Yao that provoking her would carry a hefty price.
Upon returning to the mansion, Han Yu sensed something odd about the atmosphere. The servants whispered amongst themselves; what could they be discussing? They dispersed upon seeing him, yet their looks suggested they had more to say, with a hint of dissatisfaction directed at him. What was going on?
Han Yu furrowed his brow and went to his study room to clear up the situation, only to find out that it was all because of that woman with a loose screw in her brain and that the servants clearly thought he was involved with her. He couldn’t possibly be interested in that type of woman; he wasn’t crazy. His daughter-in-law knew him, didn’t she?
Han Yu believed his daughter-in-law should know his taste, but he still felt uneasy, knowing that his daughter-in-law could be quite jealous.
Uneasy, Han Yu returned to his room and found his daughter-in-law absent. Although relieved, he feared she had stormed out in anger. He quickly seized a servant and asked, “Why isn’t Madam in the room? Where did she go?”
