Such a scheming girl may be suitable to be a daughter-in-law in a wealthy family, but only when dealing with outsiders.
If she were to use such sches on her own people, it wouldn’t be very likable.
In just half a day, her intentional and unintentional attempts to step on Lu Xinyou and elevate herself had happened more than once.
"I was just giving Youyou so advice."
Nan Xiang stiffly explained, her smile strained at the corners of her lips.
Chu Ci wanted to say more, but she was silenced by Lu Xinyou.
"My mom doesn’t play cards either. When I’m at ho, I just accompany her to work out and occasionally go horse riding."
Nan Xiang’s expression froze for a mont; she hadn’t expected this.
The "horse riding" that she knew of wasn’t sothing ordinary families could afford.
Nan Xiang’s family was considered wealthy, but they could barely afford horse riding.
However, from Lu Xinyou’s casual tone, it sounded like an ordinary thing.
Especially for her mom at her age riding horses, it indicated a long-term activity.
In Nan Xiang’s mind, Lu Xinyou was just a regular girl from a salaried family.
Won her age would either play Mahjong as leisure or couldn’t be bothered with it, simply finding it boring.
But she hadn’t expected Lu Xinyou to give such an answer.
Either Lu Xinyou was telling the truth, or she was putting on a show.
Nan Xiang instinctively chose the latter.
How could soone who has never even eaten western cuisine be a child from the upper-class society?
Nan Xiang sneered in her heart, but her face didn’t reveal a thing.
"Turns out it’s like that. It’s just a misunderstanding on my part."
Nan Xiang said with a smile.
But in her heart, she sneered.
She hadn’t expected Lu Xinyou, who always seed to have a disdainful and aloof appearance, to be such a great pretender.
Pretending in front of others was one thing, but to have the guts to do it in front of Mada Chu was another.
Did she really think that Mada Chu wouldn’t see through her act?
Nan Xiang secretly took pleasure in her misfortune.
It would be best for Mada Chu to see Lu Xinyou for who she really was, and perhaps she wouldn’t let Chu Ci be near her in the future.
With this thought, Nan Xiang’s mood improved.
"Co, co, let’s continue. Youyou lost quite a bit of money today, Auntie won’t be lenient with you."
Lu Xinyou laughed and said it’s okay. She was willing to accept her loss, and her face showed no displeasure.
Nan Xiang glanced at her and gave her a aningful smile.
Lu Xinyou saw her smile and looked at her puzzled, not understanding why she was suddenly laughing.
Several rounds later, although Lu Xinyou had improved a bit, she still couldn’t compete with the three experienced players.
Lu Xinyou played slowly, but seriously. She didn’t notice soone standing behind her.
However, Nan Xiang, sitting across from her, noticed Tang Jingxing, who had just appeared in the Mahjong room at that mont.
Although she had seen his stunning face on the screen and Weibo many tis, she was still trembling with excitent when seeing him in person.
But she didn’t want to overreact and reveal her lack of exposure to the world, like so irrational fans of Tang Jingxing.
After all, she would soon be working with him on the film set.
She pursed her lips, trying to control the surging emotions in her heart and pretended not to notice him as she quietly continued playing.
But her behavior was now a bit more pretentiously elegant than before.
