Su Ruanruan erged from the VIP ward.
She encountered Yin Zhao.
He gazed at her white lab coat and asked, "You’re off today, why did you co over?"
Su Ruanruan kept work and private life separate.
She replied with a light smile, "I ca to see Mr. He; I’ll be leaving now."
Yin Zhao heard about it from Yin Mingzhu.
He suggested, "Going to Aunt Qin’s place for tea? Let give you a ride!"
Su Ruanruan shook her head, whispering, "I’m going with my mother."
Yin Zhao didn’t quite understand the strife among the society ladies.
He only watched her.
Su Ruanruan did not linger; she left straight away.
She proceeded to the hotel where Madam Gu was staying and briefed her on the villa’s matter.
Madam Gu happily agreed.
By three in the afternoon.
They were invited for tea at Mrs. Yin’s mansion.
Mrs. Sun Jingan was also there.
Besides, there were several other well-known ladies from the social circles.
The doorkeeper opened the door.
Inside, romantic piano music filled the room.
It was Mrs. Yin playing the piano.
Madam Gu applauded, "I never expected Mrs. Yin to possess such great talent."
Others offered their complints as well.
But Mrs. Sun Jingan, sitting and sipping tea, told Madam Gu, "Don’t praise her too much, or she’ll get too cocky!"
She, with her esteed status, personally stood up to introduce Madam Gu.
Which was much more face-saving than Mrs. Yin’s introduction.
Madam Gu was beautiful and noble, dressed in exceptional garnts.
Her deanor was extrely refined.
Moreover, upon introduction, she was known to be Miss Su’s mother.
Miss Su had recently perford surgery on Mr. He, gaining trendous fa.
At that mont, no one dared to underestimate her.
...
Mrs. Yin stood up.
She sneered.
Enjoy your pride while it lasts; you’ll be humiliated soon.
Servants brought the afternoon tea, placing it on a tall tea table.
Mrs. Yin bead with a smile.
She announced, "The afternoon tea is served!"
It was directed at Madam Gu.
Now, if this unsophisticated woman took a seat at the tea table.
She would imdiately lose her status.
In the B city circle of socialites, she would no longer have a place to stand.
Madam Gu gently fanned herself.
She smiled faintly.
Without a hint of agitation or moving an inch.
Mrs. Yin was shocked.
This woman didn’t fall for the trap!
Of course, Madam Gu wouldn’t be tricked.
She quietly instructed her daughter, "British nobles sit at low tea tables for afternoon tea; these tall tables are for servants to rest their feet! If I had sat down just now, I would’ve beco a laughing stock!"
Su Ruanruan gave a soft nod.
Indeed, the mansion’s servants were now seated there having tea.
Mrs. Yin’s plan had failed.
She was slightly annoyed!
She led the ladies to the low tea tables to drink tea.
Intending to once again embroil Madam Gu in difficulty.
But Madam Gu was impeccable in every aspect and couldn’t be faulted.
On the contrary, Madam Gu shared stories of her ti at Oxford University with a smile, then casually ntioned, "I wonder which university Mrs. Yin attended for her studies?"
Mrs. Yin forced a smile, "It was a dostic university."
Madam Gu just smiled without a comnt.
The bystanders could see.
This lady ranked very high, likely above Mrs. Yin.
Today, Mrs. Yin invited them here to isolate this Madam Gu.
But Madam Gu was Miss Su’s mother.
Miss Su was highly sought-after.
So of their n had cursed Bao Jingyan that evening in the club.
Miss Su had extricated them.
They owed her that favor.
So in their speech and behavior, they did not treat Madam Gu coldly.
Mrs. Yin lost her advantage.
But she remained composed, saying with a smile, "I wonder if Madam Gu would be interested in playing a few rounds of cards?"
"Why not?" Madam Gu was very gracious.
Mrs. Yin thought she was skilled at cards.
Desirous of winning others’ money, she would offend people!
Little did she know, Madam Gu purposely lost round after round.
Eight gas in, she was down about five to six million.
She didn’t seem to mind; her grandeur was undiminished.
The society ladies all liked to associate with her.
At this mont, Madam Gu had gifts brought out.
She said, "It’s my first ti eting everyone, so here are so humble presents."
Box by box was opened.
To everyone’s surprise, they were all exquisite jewels.
