Su Yanyi raised an eyebrow, her instinct telling her that Xiao Su Nuo’s answer would definitely not be one she liked, and sure enough, she then heard Xiao Su Nuo say, "But, but can you not, not be fierce?"
After a brief silence, the whole family burst into hearty laughter, except for Su Yanyi, whose face darkened, while Qin Jiran was indecisively unsure whether to join in the laughter with the rest or to offer so comfort to his wife, who had been struck by the remark.
"Who are you calling fierce?" Su Yanyi was not soone with a good temper, and feeling slighted in such a manner, she imdiately beca unhappy, reaching out to grab Xiao Su Nuo by the clothes and lifting him up.
Xiao Su Nuo got scared, his little hands and feet flailing, as he cried pitifully, "No, Nuonuo didn’t say, little auntie isn’t fierce, little auntie is the best... "
"Hahaha..." The family laughed even more rrily this ti.
Although Su Yanyi still felt angry and wasn’t consoled at all, seeing the pitiful way Xiao Su Nuo was struggling, she eventually let go, huffing coldly and said, "You’re so dumb, be careful or you won’t even be able to find a wife when you grow up!"
What Su Yanyi really wanted to say was that if you’re so naive, be cautious or you’ll end up with a fierce wife when you grow up, but then she thought, if she said that, wouldn’t she be admitting that she was indeed fierce? That was absolutely not acceptable. She felt she was becoming more and more virtuous.
Su Yanyi turned around to look at her husband, who was being used as a backrest, and asked with a cool face, "Do you think I’m fierce?"
"Hahaha, Yanyi, when you ask Jiran sothing like that, how could he dare to tell the truth? Otherwise he would definitely be banished to sleep in the living room," Mother Su laughed heartily, teasing both Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran. However, Mother Su actually felt she was telling the truth; in her opinion, her daughter really was rather fierce, and Qin Jiran, the henpecked husband, certainly didn’t dare to fight back.
Qin Jiran couldn’t help but offer a wry smile. Even if he told the truth, he wouldn’t think Yanyi was fierce. His mother-in-law was really setting a trap for him to fall into, and it would be improper for him to contradict her directly, so he just tightened his arms and held Yanyi a bit closer.
In stark contrast to the Su family’s harmonious atmosphere, the Qin family’s ambiance was extrely grim. Due to the public issue of violent evictions, after Qin Zhenyi failed to reach Su Yanyi, he had no choice but to gather the mbers of the Qin family for a eting to discuss the issue again.
At the eting, Qin Zhenyi did not hide anything, directly stating Su Yanyi’s demands and very confidently declaring that these were her terms, and without acceptance, there would be no negotiation. This caused a shift in everyone else’s expressions, as no one had expected Su Yanyi to have such a large appetite.
Qin Ying was the first to retort, "No way, she’s delusional, wanting three percent of the shares? What qualifies her? We’re definitely not yielding, after all, we don’t have any direct connection to this violent eviction ss. Those few troublemaking citizens just need a bit of money to be settled down, and it has nothing to do with us."
Her stake was the smallest among the three households involved, and her issues were the most minor, apparently only ntioned in passing and not the main focus of the targeting, so there was so validity to what Qin Ying said.
The faces of Qin Zhenren and Qin Zhenyi, however, grew even grimr. They were the main targets of the public criticism, which had escalated to the point of disrupting normal work. If the issue remained unresolved, they feared even legal authorities would co knocking at their door.
"Younger brother, Qin Jiran is your son, and Su Yanyi is, therefore, your daughter-in-law. She’s making such a demand now; could you be instigating this behind the scenes? It can’t possibly be that at this critical ti, you’re still scheming behind your own family’s back?" Qin Zhenren couldn’t hide his suspicion towards Qin Zhenyi. After all, for Su Yanyi to make such a request seed quite excessive, and since Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran had always maintained a distance from the Qin family, it was puzzling why she was suddenly seeking a share of Qin Corporation. This made Qin Zhenren wonder if Qin Zhenyi was involved!
