"How dare you call stupid!? And you are saying that I'm a negative influence on my baby?" Long Yani was infuriated.
"Yes."
Nana then ignored her and took out her card. This was the money she earned from Natsukashi, and Jinhai had given a special card for it.
Long Yani widened her eyes in shock.
It was a premium platinum card.
'She is just a pathetic chef. How does she have a platinum card? Even I don't have that!'
She sneered. "Does it even have money in it? Or it's just for show?"
*Ding*
The assistant printed the receipt of her bill as she swiped the card.
Her face contorted, showing an ugly expression.
Nana smiled. "Yes, it does have my hard-earned money."
It was indirectly a taunt that she was living off and flaunting her husband's money without doing anything.
"You" Long Yani clenched her fingers.
"Heh! Is it really your money? Perhaps you have a sugar daddy whose this card must belong to. Then" She looked down at her belly. "Maybe your child too"
Nana's gaze turned cold. "Don't dare to complete that sentence."
Long Yani laughed. "Stepped on your tail? It can be possible since your husband is a poor, good-for-nothing gofer? You may have found a fat, ugly CEO to warm his bed in exchange for that card."
"Did you just call Liu Jinhai a poor, good-for-nothing gofer?" A dark, cold voice ca from behind.
Long Yani was startled, and she looked behind. Her eyeballs ca out of her sockets as she saw Jinhai coming.
How could she not recognize him?
"Mr. L-Liu?"
Jinhai stood beside Nana. He kissed her cheek. "Sorry for coming late."
Nana shook her head. "It's okay."
"Did she trouble you?"
"I didn't bother with her, so how can she trouble ?"
Long Yani was looking at them dumbfounded.
'Liu Jinhai kissed that womanHow is that possible?'
Jinhai shot a cold glance at her. She stiffened.
He smiled. "Well, well, isn't it, Mrs. Long? Nice to et you."
Long Yani stood frozen. It was the first ti she saw Liu Jinhai in person. Even Long Guozhi had never got the chance to et him.
"G-good to see you too, Mr. Liu."
She was sweating hard. She had no idea that Nana was Mrs. Liu!
"Oh, I think I heard you called Nana's husband as a poor, good-for-nothing gofer. I didn't know that running a multi-billionaire corporation was considered poor in your eyes. Is the CEO's work called as good-for-nothing now? Sadly, I am behind the trend."
The color drained from her face.
'He heard everything!'
"No! Mr. Liu. It's a misunderstanding-" She anxiously tried to explain.
"How? Nana is indeed warming a CEO's bed. Actually, I'm warming her bed too. We would since we are married. But how am I a fat, ugly CEO in any sense? Clearly, you have problems in your vision."
Nana was finding it hard holding in her laughter.
Long Yani's face turned red in embarrassnt.
She called the Godly handso Liu Jinhai, fat and ugly?
'How did the situation take this turn!? This bitch. She purposely didn't tell about him to embarrass ! If Guozhi ca to know about this, then I'm dead! He was even trying to contact Liu Jinhai for so long!'
"Of course not, Mr. Liu! How can I say that to you? I-I didn't know that you were her husband. It's really a misunderstanding."
She looked at Nana. "Mrs. Liu, I truly had no idea about your identity. That is not right. You should have told sooner. But you saw making a fool out of myself and did nothing." She made an expression as if she was wronged.
Nana raised her eyebrow.
Long Yani pitifully looked at Jinhai. "Mr. Liu, if your wife had told about you, then how could I have said those words? She denied about you."
"When did I do that?"
"Mrs. Liu, don't act innocent. You said that your husband is not rich."
Nana smiled. "No. I said, 'What if I'm not a rich man's wife?' I wasn't definite. You went on and assud that my husband must be poor."
Long Yani widened her eyes. She gritted her teeth.
'She played with the words!'
"But, your tone suggested otherwise."
Nana shrugged. "I wasn't implying anything. I was rely asking you a question. I'm not responsible for what you make out of my tone."
"You-"
"Yani."
Long Guozhi looked at Jinhai. He was utterly taken aback. He never thought that he would et him here of all places. He couldn't hide his excitent. He was trying for months to contact him. And now he had submitted his proposal for a deal. If he wins it, then Long Industries could get a partnership with the Liu Corps.
"Mr. Liu Jinhai! How are you? I didn't expect to see you here."
Jinhai looked at Long Yani. She stepped back a little with his sharp gaze.
'Oh no, what should I do now?'
She clenched her fingers into a fist as she glowered at Nana.
'How dare she ss with !'
"My wife and I are buying a crib for our baby."
Long Guozhi was ecstatic. 'Yani must have definitely ford a good relationship with Mrs. Liu. She finally did sothing useful!'
"What a coincidence! Yani and I ca here for the sa. How about we shop together?" He was sure that Jinhai would agree since Long Yani had got them into Nana's good books.
'This will strengthen our relationship with the Liu family!'
Jinhai chuckled, "Together? But how will we do that if your wife grabs everything for herself, for example, how she took the baby crib for herself that my wife chose first."
Long Guozhi widened his eyes. "What?" He glared at her.
Long Yani panicked. "No! I-I just liked the crib, so I asked Mrs. Liu if I could have it."
The assistant said, "No. Mrs. Liu chose this crib, but your wife forcefully ca and ordered to pack it for her. I tried to explain that it is already taken, but she wasn't ready to listen. Then she started insulting Mrs. Liu"
Long Guozhi's expression turned darker and darker as he heard everything.
"Yani! How could you do that!?" He yelled.
He really wished to give a tight slap to her at that mont.
'She even accused Mrs. Liu of having an affair! How stupid can you get! She has Liu Jinhai as her husband. Only a stupid woman would want another man!'
"Guozhi," Long Yani cried, "Mrs. Liu didn't clear herself about her identity. How is it my fault?"
"Shut up! You insult her and Mr. Liu Jinhai, and you got the nerve to bla her for that!"
Nana asked, "I already said that what you interpret is none of my concern. So, does that an if I was really a poor man's wife, then it was alright for you to insult ?"
Long Yani was stumped.
"Mrs. Liu, it was all just a misunderstanding. Why are you still not letting it go?" Which implied that Nana was petty.
"Yani!"
'She is making things worse!'
Jinhai tilted his head. "Right. We should let it go..."
Long Yani inwardly jumped in happiness.
'Heh! Doesn't look like this slut matters to Liu Jinhai.'
"Did you see Guozhi?" She smiled. "Everything is fine now-"
"And Long Guozhi's business proposal too." Jinhai cut her off mid-sentence.
Both froze.
Long Yani looked at him, horrified. Long Guozhi said, "Mr. Liu," He was now sweating hard, "I apologize on behalf of her. Yani! What are you standing for! Apologize to Mrs. Liu!"
'I cannot afford to lose this deal!'
'I apologize to this, bitch?' Long Yani gritted her teeth.
She looked at Guozhi with her big, tearful eyes. "Guozhi, how can I"
"Shut up!"
Jinhai smiled. "Wasn't my wife being petty? So, I'm letting this matter go on her behalf. We should leave now. She has already bought the 'other' crib." He emphasized 'other.'
Yani clearly felt the taunt directed at her.
"No, wait, Mr. Liu!" He tried to stop him. "Yani, if you don't apologize right now, then be ready to pack your bags and leave the Long villa!"
Long Yani was at a loss of words. "GuozhiHow could you? I'm pregnant. How can you tell to leave?" She cried.
By now, it had turned into a full-on commotion. The other pregnant won who ca for shopping also heard everything. They murmured.
"Seriously, she started it and now refuses to apologize."
"So arrogant!"
"She was the one who barged in and snatched the crib. How shaless."
Long Yani's face was livid and red with sha.
'I will never apologize!'
Then she clutched her belly. "AhGuozhiit hurtsOur babyTake to the hospital"
Jinhai chuckled. "Apparently, your wife is in pain, Mr. Long. You tend to her while we should leave."
Long Guozhi angrily scowled at her. "Go by yourself!"
Yani couldn't believe his words, and more tears ca rolling out. "GuozhiHow can you be so heartless!"
"Mr. Liu we can talk-"
As Jinhai and Nana were stepping out, Nana stopped. She looked at Yani. "Mrs. Long, I forgot to thank you for the complint."
Long Yani furrowed her brows.
'When did I praise her?'
"Didn't you like my catering service at your banquet?"
Long Yani froze. She looked at her dumbfounded.
She smiled. "I'm the owner and head chef of Natsukashi, who you were praising so much."
