Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

”You and my brother-in-law have always kept a low profile, I didn’t expect this birthday party to be so grand. I know my brother-in-law is usually busy, it’s mainly you and Xiaoxiao handling things.”

”If there’s anything you need help with, feel free to let me know.”

...

You Hongxian’s face was full of flattery.

You Yunzhi smiled at him, but her words instantly shattered his smile.

”You’ve been running around a lot lately for Shenming, traveling all the way to Pingjiang, even ending up at the Tang Family?”

”Did Jiang Chengsi tell you this?” Jiang Chengsi happened to be here, and given his unusual personality, You Hongxian assumed he was the one who reported it.

”Sis, I happened to have business in Pingjiang, so I just dropped by the Tang Family to extend apologies for Shenming.”

”Jiang Chengsi not only kicked me out, he even threw my gift out. Where can you find people like that? His temper is so bad he dares to scold his own father, surely he won’t respect me. Don’t believe everything he says to you.”

Jiang Chengsi was hiding in the corner, hearing this, he was furious!

Seriously?

What does this mean? Falsely accusing him for no reason?

Apologies? As if he’s lying without even a draft.

He was about to react, but Si Qingxiao pulled him back.

”He... um.” He was about to speak but she covered his mouth.

At that moment, outside, You Yunzhi spoke.

”You were there to apologize? And then Chengsi kicked you out?”

”Sis, you don’t know, nowadays these kids...” You Hongxian’s words were cut short as You Yunzhi suddenly placed the cup on the table.

The porcelain cup hit the glass coffee table with a loud ”bang——”.

Tea splattered everywhere!

You Hongxian was startled, heart racing.

”Hongxian, you’re not getting any younger, how come you’re now less sensible than a child!”

”Running your mouth is one thing, but pouring dirty water on the kid?”

”If you’re not ashamed, I’m embarrassed for you!”

In Jiang Chengsi’s impression, You Yunzhi was always composed and graceful, he never imagined what she looked like when angry, and he was startled.

You Hongxian’s face turned pale instantly.

”Let me tell you, about your trip to Pingjiang, it wasn’t Chengsi who told me, he just came to deliver something today and hasn’t mentioned a single word about you!”

”Just earlier I asked him what he meant by ’seeing you again’, and he didn’t say anything negative about you.”

”The kid sees you as an elder, I’m his aunt, Xiaoxiao was also here just before. He didn’t want to embarrass you in front of your niece, he hasn’t said a single bad thing about you. But you, in a hurry, poured dirt all over him!”

You Yunzhi spoke without rush or harsh words, but her presence carried an intimidating force.

Calm demeanor remained, unhurriedly, word by word, as if enunciating each one clearly.

Letting him hear more clearly.

”Sis, I...” You Hongxian didn’t expect Jiang Chengsi said nothing.

”I called you over today to give you a chance, I didn’t have the kids stay here as a courtesy, but you...”

You Yunzhi chuckled slightly, frustrated at his shortcomings.

”Sis, Shenming’s case is about to go to court, I’m just too anxious, I...”

”You should leave.” You Yunzhi seemed unwilling to continue the conversation, which made You Hongxian anxious, ”Sis, listen to me...”

...

Jiang Chengsi still wanted to keep listening, but Si Qingxiao had already dragged him quickly to the backyard, which was quiet and empty.

”Why did you pull me away?”

”There’s no need to listen any further.”

”Your uncle doesn’t have a good relationship with you guys?”

”It’s never been good.” Si Qingxiao shrugged.

”That’s good then.” Jiang Chengsi nodded with relief, he had been worried for so many days before, since the relationship was bad, You Hongxian’s attitude towards him didn’t matter.

”Did you not expect my mom would argue with him? Or find my mom kind of fierce?” Si Qingxiao asked directly.

”Not really, being protected by the mother-in-law feels quite nice.”

”Wh-what mother-in-law.” Si Qingxiao blushed at this title, ”Come on, I’ll show you around.”

Jiang Chengsi thought there was no one around, he was about to secretly hook her finger, but she slapped it away immediately.

”You...”

”Our family yard has surveillance.”

”...”

Jiang Chengsi looked around, and there really were cameras.

”Why install cameras in your own home?”

”To prevent theft.”

”...”
