Chapter 417: Chapter 373: Indifferent as a Chrysanthemum Mother? The Young Lady Casually Sabotages 13
“You, you…” Ning Fu was at a loss for words.
At this mont, her hands still bore the freshly done manicure, maintaining her own sense of decorum.
But from her expression, it was certainly not as calm as it seed—she was already shaking with anger.
“Don’t worry, Mom, you taught before that I must return evil with good. Now, I must listen to you diligently to be a good daughter,” Su Zhiruan added fuel to the fire with a grin.
“He’s your father if he cheats on soone else, what will we mother and son do?” Ning Fu looked at her, suppressing the displeasure in her heart, and continued to instruct Su Zhiruan earnestly, “You should persuade your dad. I thought your father and I were childhood sweethearts who grew up together, and I never expected soone else to co between us. How can this be good?”
By now, Ning Fu’s tone was extrely calm, even carrying a hint of pleading, but Su Zhiruan remained smiling and innocently blinked, “Mom, what are you talking about? You’ve always taught to avoid conflicts with others, even if it’s their fault, I should apologize first to avoid making people think I’m difficult to get along with,”
“Oh, right, I rember there was a ti when I was bullied, and you even asked to give them gifts, to kneel and nose to the ground to apologize. Under your guidance, I learned to interact with others openly and generously. Since dad has chosen Aunt Zhu, it must an he truly loves Aunt Zhu. If Aunt Zhu could join our family, that would be a joyous thing, no? If she later bears little brothers or sisters, I’m sure our large family living harmoniously will make others envious! I really like Aunt Zhu!”
As Su Zhiruan spoke, she watched Ning Fu’s face turn increasingly grim, feeling an imnse sense of satisfaction welling up inside her.
Ning Fu had never experienced such humiliation.
In the past, Ning Fu, focused on herself, vented her frustrations on the original owner, claiming she disdained competing with others. Thus, in the original story, the original owner would take the initiative to fight battles for her, leaving Ning Fu to play the good cop and the original owner the bad cop, keeping the image of kindness and virtue all to herself.
But this ti, Su Zhiruan wasn’t playing along. She adopted an attitude of indifference, watching as Ning Fu’s face gradually cracked and crumbled.
“You weren’t so generous before!” Ning Fu said with an ashen face, bitterly.
“So what you’re saying, Mom, is that you want to sever ties with dad and fight Aunt Zhu?” Su Zhiruan didn’t indulge her; instead, openly and directly, she laid out the conflict for discussion.
At that mont, the sleepy original owner’s brother ca downstairs from his third-floor room, while the aunts bustling in the kitchen and living room stealthily eavesdropped on this mother-daughter exchange.
Unruffled, Su Zhiruan wasn’t planning to partake in this epic battle. She was only responsible for stirring the pot. Since Ning Fu was discontent, let her handle it by herself; Su Zhiruan had no desire to muddy the waters and risk being perceived as the instigator.
“I won’t,” Ning Fu took a deep breath then furiously sat down on the sofa. Her movents were so sudden that they contradicted her usually cautious manner, drawing many eyes her way, but by now, Ning Fu no longer cared. Her tone was chilly, “But it’s just the riffraff, your dad sees out there that doesn’t matter. He better not bring them ho. She should clearly know who the real lady of this house is!”
Su Zhiruan laughed.
Clearly, her sarcasm harbored deep resentnt. Although Ning Fu’s tone was calm, anyone could tell she spoke in anger, even as she flaunted her role as the lady of the house, subconsciously fussing over her freshly manicured nails.
The more Ning Fu acted this way, the more Su Zhiruan felt assured of her answer.
She cared so much about Zhu Manqing’s presence that she definitely wouldn’t tolerate her staying by Su Qin’s side. She would surely find a way to eliminate her.
But this matter had nothing to do with Su Zhiruan; she just needed to stir the pot and then watch the drama unfold from a safe distance.
Thus, Su Zhiruan nodded in agreent, “Mom, I now understand the lessons you taught before. One must return evil with good, and just like how broad-minded Mom is, later on, Aunt Zhu’s family and ours living together, you could even help take care of the little brothers and sisters. And I can take care of the little brothers and sisters too. Our big, happy family will surely be blissful!”
