Chapter 16: Chapter 16 The Daughter of a Servant Chapter 16: Chapter 16 The Daughter of a Servant Both mother and son had grim expressions on their faces, intending to confront the front desk, only to be stopped by the security guard who wouldn’t let them through.
Even worse, the security guard taunted them, “You two blind swindlers, stop making a scene at our Jungle entrance. Pretending to be the wife of the dean here? Aren’t you ashad? I’m not letting you in, so beat it!”
Hen Peizhu had never faced such an insult and was so angry that she almost started a fight with the security guard.
Qi Yunfan hurriedly pulled her away.
“Mom, stop it. Maybe the pass wasn’t stolen by Lin Chuyi. Maybe she really does work here. She has quit her job at our hospital. Without finding a good job, she wouldn’t have resigned.”
Hen Peizhu’s face turned shades of purple and white, unable to utter a word.
Being overshadowed by soone she deed inferior, her pride was hurt, and she was filled with rage.
It took a while before she cald down and said, “Didn’t you say Lin Chuyi studied nursing? How could soone like her get a job at a high-end company like Jungle? She must’ve climbed into so man’s bed using her looks!”
“That… that’s impossible, right?”
“What’s so impossible about it? With her face, it’s easy to hook up with a man. Didn’t you arrange a job for her at our hospital because she’s pretty?”
Hen Peizhu lowered her voice, “Didn’t her mom work as a maid at the Wen Family’s? Go ask Wen Nianyou and find out which man from Jungle Lin Chuyi has clung to.”
“Why bother looking into this?”
“Are you dumb? If her man has so clout, then there’s no need to look elsewhere. We can just go directly to him for the dication, can’t we?”
The thought of Lin Chuyi possibly being with another man made Qi Yunfan uncomfortable.
That afternoon, he went to Wen Nianyou for help with finding out.
Wen Nianyou imdiately went to Lin Yueqin, “You’re useless, why is Lin Chuyi still out there causing trouble! She’s deliberately making her presence known to Qi Yunfan. Now he’s thinking about her again, getting jealous over her and other n!”
Lin Yueqin was stunned, “What? She wasn’t arrested? The police assured they would recapture her!”
“You’re so stupid! You can’t even handle this small task, utterly useless!”
Wen Nianyou’s expression was volatile, “Forget it, call Lin Chuyi here tonight, I need to ask her sothing.”
“My lady, why call her here? Haven’t I said it before? Let her show up less in front of Lady Wen. We should find a way to drive her away. The less contact they have, the better, to avoid their relationship getting closer. What if Lady Wen finds out the truth? Lin Chuyi is becoming more and more like Lady Wen!”
“Do I need your advice? I will handle it my way, and you must call her here today!”
With no other choice, Lin Yueqin made the call to Lin Chuyi.
In the evening, Lin Chuyi arrived at the Wen Family’s villa.
She wasn’t there because Lin Yueqin had called her; two years ago, Lady Wen had a tumor in her brain and Lin Chuyi had operated on her. Lady Wen had been diligent with her check-ups at the hospital, but in the past six months, she had stopped. Lin Chuyi wanted to take this opportunity to check on her condition.
In the living room, Lady Wen was seated on the sofa while Lin Yueqin and Wen Nianyou each stood by her side, massaging her back and legs.
Lin Chuyi entered and gently said, “Madam, I’ve co to see you. How have you been?”
Lady Wen was delighted to see her, “Xiaoyi is here. It’s been such a long ti, have you been busy with work? Co here, don’t stand so far away. Sit next to .”
Just as Chuyi took a step forward, Lin Yueqin quickly stood up to block her, “That won’t do, Madam. She, a servant’s daughter, does not deserve to sit by your side. Let her just stand here.”
The smile faded slightly from Lady Wen’s face, “Yueqin, what are you saying? You know I have never considered you a servant. You have always taken care of Nianyou with all your heart. I’ve co to see you as a sister, and Xiaoyi is like my half-daughter.”
“Madam has always been good to , but I understand my place, and so does Chuyi. There is a distinction between high and low. Servants remain servants, and even if Chuyi is my daughter, we cannot break the rules.”
Lin Yueqin bowed her head in a pretense of respect, her hand tightly gripping Lin Chuyi, refusing to let her co any closer.
