Mrs. Yue patted Yan Qingsis hand. Im not telling you to marry him immediately. As long as you become a Yuethats all I want.
Yan Qingsi nodded her head. Alright
Then can you just call me mom first? Mrs. Yue whispered conspiratorially.
Yan Qingsis cheeks reddened immediately.
During dinner at night, Yan Qingsi scrolled through Weibo. Her name was a trending search topic, albeit not one of the top trending ones. Someone had posted a picture of her shopping in the afternoon. Fortunately, the picture did not really capture Mrs. Yues face.
A few media sites were also circulating the picture. They even speculated that Mrs. Yue was Yan Qingsis future mother-in-law. Were the two out to buy wedding items?
Some people took it one step further: she was pregnant, and they were out to buy infant products.
Many people were mentioning and tagging Yan Qingsis account in Weibo, asking her if that person was her future mother-in-law.
Yan Qingsi did not think twice before answering, Yes. Thats my future mother-in-law!
After replying, Yan Qingsi turned off her phone before she could see her Weibo account explode.
Later, Yue Tingfeng thrusted his phone into his mothers face. Mom, Momtheres a label slapped on you now, he said.
What label?
Mrs. Yue scanned the phone. Shock washed over her, then she screamed.
Happiness had come to her too suddenly. She felt as though a giant pie had abruptly hit her.
Yan Qingsi lifted her head. What happened, Auntie? she asked.
Mrs. Yue covered her reddening face, peeking at her through the cracks between her fingers.
Yue Tingfeng stuffed himself with a bowl of fish soup. Shes shy right now, he said.
Huh?
Mrs. Yues elation led her to pull Yan Qingsi to sleep next to her that night. She did not care about what Yue Tingfeng saidshe wanted to be rebellious, so she did not care.
Yue Tingfeng was pushed out the door. He stood outside, sighing as he leaned against the wall. He should have not said anything. Why did he have to blabber so much?
The charity dinner was approaching. Yan Qingsi was anxious; she had an aversion toward dinners, as all the events she had been in before had turned into disasters because of her.
You have to go. You already claimed me as your mother-in-law, Mrs. Yue told her sternly. We Yues are already dying out. Were everyones target because there are so few of us. Its so rare to have another member whos so good at combat. Even if you cant go, you will have to somehow. Its not just you, thoughMianmian has to go as well.
But all the dinners Ive been to have become disasters because of me Yan Qingsi replied, worried.
Mrs. Yue smiled. Thats good. Make it a disaster! Were going to create a disaster tonight!
Her mission today was to create a scene for Mrs. Helan. Since she had even tried to sabotage her son, Mrs. Yue was going to strangle that b*tch.
If you want me to create a scene, then sure, Ill go!
Yan Qingsi called Ji Mianmian over.
As soon as they were ready, they all left together in two separate cars.
Jiang Lai drove Yue Tingfeng and Yan Qingsi, while Qu Jing drove Mrs. Yue and Ji Mianmian.
Tonight, Ji Mianmian was wearing a black, V-collared cocktail dress with lace detailing, a dainty pendant adorning the base of her throat. She also wore makeup and seemed like a completely different person. She looked pretty and adorable, but she also had the air of an elegant, refined young lady.
Qu Jing glanced into the rearview mirror from time to time as he drove. Mrs. Yue noticed this. Little Qu, eyes on the road, she said. Whatever youre looking at isnt yours and dont you even think about making it yours.
Qu Jing pursed his lips. I understand. But cant I check out the back, Maam?
Im scared that you will stare so much that you end up having perverted tendencies, Mrs. Yue said.
No way.
You can look at anyone you like at the dinner. Go and find someone sultry to entertain you.
