Lady Chu struggled for a few moments, but did not withdraw her hand. She then turned her head and scolded somewhat angrily, ”Who is it that gives you the right to meddle in my affairs?”
Just as she finished speaking, Madam Chu's gaze fell upon Yan Zhen's face, and her expression instantly turned into one of panic as her eyes widened in shock.
”My biological grandmother... ”Why is it you?”
This time, it was Ye Yan Xi's turn to be stunned. He never thought that Lady Chu and Madame Jiang were relatives.
Hearing this name, it seemed like Madame Jiang was He Man's grandmother?
At this moment, Yan Zhen released Lady Chu's hand. She had a stern expression on her face, giving off a faint sense of majesty. No wonder. Yan Zhen had grown up in the army with Jiang Huai Ming and had been trained by the army. After their marriage, they had fought side by side with Jiang Huai Ming many times, so she had a solemn and solemn temperament to her.
Her strength was not small to begin with. With a kneading sound, a red mark quickly appeared on Madame Chu's wrist, causing her face to twist in pain.
”My dear mother, this is the second time we have met, I didn't expect that it would be here.” Yan Zhen's expression was not very friendly. Furthermore, she would often accompany Jiang Huai Ming to visit various occasions. That powerful aura made people feel pressured, causing the arrogant Lady Chu to immediately wilt.
The first time the two of them met was during the engagement ceremony between Chu Beize and He Man. At that time, Yan Zhen had come along with Jiang Huaiming.
But now, she was like a shrew with a savage expression, completely devoid of any dignity.
”My dear grandma, I was rude just now. How about this, it's almost time for dinner. I'll do the east. Let's have a meal nearby tonight, do you think?” Madam Chu glared at Ye Yanxi, and immediately stood upright as she invited Yan Zhen.
”My dear mother, I'm afraid that we won't have much time to eat this meal. Old Jiang is still waiting for us to return, but …” Yan Zhen changed the topic of their conversation. She looked at Ye Yan Xi and said, ”I think you should apologize to this child first!”
What? You want her to apologize to Ye Yanxi?
Madame Chu's face turned white, her smile frozen on her face, making her seem exceptionally comical.
”I just said something about this child.” Lady Chu's expression was one of disbelief.
”Just a few words?” Yan Zhen coldly snorted, ”I'm really embarrassed to repeat the words you've just said. I really didn't expect that Old Xiao's daughter would have such a good upbringing.”
Lady Chu's expression turned cold as she frowned. ”What do you mean by that?”
”Tell me, what would Old Xiao think if he knew that his daughter was taught by him and didn't even pant when he scolded her?”
”My dear grandmother, I respect you as an elder. That's why I'm being polite to you!”
”Oh? Are you saying that if I wasn't your elder, would you be scolding me like you did just now? Manman actually has this kind of mother-in-law. Looks like I should be more careful with this marriage. ”
Lady Chu was so angry that her entire body trembled, but she did her best to suppress her anger. She didn't think that Yan Zhen would actually speak of her like this for Ye Yanxi. How could she just let it go like that?
However, if she turned hostile towards Yan Zhen, the marriage between the Chu Clan and He Clan might not be going well. Furthermore, Madam He had always been more obedient to her mother, Yan Zhen.
With this thought in mind, Madam Chu slowly suppressed her anger, and a fake smile appeared on her face.
”My dear grandmother, seeing how serious your words are, how could I be disrespectful to you? This must be a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!”
”Family? Xiao Shuren, your son still hasn't married Manman, so don't call him your relative. Others may have misunderstood. ”
When Lady Chu heard this, she instantly became anxious. She was about to …
”My biological grandmother? It was my fault just now, so don't bother about it. ” Madam Chu stepped forward and affectionately pulled on Yan Zhen's hand, but Yan Zhen dodged her hand.
”Xiao Shuren, you just scolded Miss Ye and even wanted to go up and beat her up. The person you are going to blame is her, not me.”
Madam Chu's expression turned ugly once again. She still wanted him to apologize to Ye Yanxi? ”This little bitch, don't even think about it!”
”My dear grandma, you might not understand the situation. This Ye Yan Xi has been pestering our family's Bei Ze all this time. I was forced to do this.” Lady Chu paused before continuing to pull at her face miserably. ”Right now, Beize and Manman are engaged. I didn't want this matter to affect the other two families, so I forced them into a corner and used such an extreme method to deal with it.”
As she spoke, she looked at Ye Yan Xi with resentment in her eyes.
Today was truly a day of bad luck. If it wasn't for Ye Yanxi, she wouldn't have been angered by Yan Zhen.
It was obvious that her bitter words were of no use. Yan Zhen was not moved and laughed coldly, ”Could it be that there is something wrong with my eyes? I saw your Beize stop Miss Ye, did I see something wrong? ”
After she finished speaking, Yan Zhen glanced at Chu Beize. The latter met her gaze and lowered his head guiltily.
Madam Chu's lips moved. Looking at Chu Beize's appearance, she knew Yan Zhen was right.
However, if Ye Yanxi did not seduce Chu Beize, why would he stop her? It was all that little slut's fault.
Madam Chu refused to admit it in her heart, but upon seeing the situation, she knew that it was too much for her not to apologize. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and whisper to Ye Yanxi, ”Miss Ye, I was in the wrong. Please forgive me.”
The corner of Ye Yanxi's mouth twitched, and she pulled out a smile, ”It's alright.”
