Duan Meiyuan returned to the Duan family.

When Duan Meiyuan's brother, Brother Duan, first saw her return, he assumed she was coming back with her son and husband, and greeted her with a smile.

Although the Duan family still favored sons over daughters and believed that girls should marry well, and most of the Duan family's property was given to the brothers, the brothers all doted on Duan Meiyuan. Even before Duan Meiyuan got married, she was the Duan family's princess and the apple of their eye.

When Brother Duan saw Duan Meiyuan return, he smiled and ruffled her hair, saying, "Yu Guochang hasn't taken good care of my sister. Has she lost weight recently? Did you come back with your husband? I'll have the kitchen make some of your favorite dishes."

Duan Meiyuan was still angry and didn't tell her brother about her argument with Yu Guochang. She just went straight back to her room.

It wasn't until she went upstairs that she discovered her room was occupied by a young woman from who-knows-where. The housekeeper, sensing that Duan Meiyuan was about to lose her temper, immediately stepped forward and said, "Miss, I didn't know you were coming back. I'll go and arrange a guest room for you right now."

Guest rooms?

What kind of guest room is this!

Duan Meiyuan was about to explode. This was her room, and now a young woman had taken over her room from who-knows-where. Instead of kicking her out, the housekeeper said he would prepare a guest room for her.

Duan Meiyuan's expression changed immediately. "When did I come to my room and need to sleep in the guest room?"

She hadn't really thought anything was strange before. After all, every time she came back, it was just for a meal. The Duan and Yu families lived close by, and Duan Meiyuan was pampered by her husband and spoiled by her son. After the meal, she would be picked up and dropped off by a private driver. When she came back, it was more like she was showing off to her family what amazing things her son had done. She would also bring expensive gifts. Every time, the first thing her brothers would ask was what Duan Meiyuan had brought back.

This is the first time Duan Meiyuan has fully realized that the room that should have been hers has been occupied.

Seeing that Duan Meiyuan was about to lose her temper, the housekeeper immediately called the woman's boyfriend, Duan Meiyuan's youngest brother.

Before Brother Duan arrived, Duan Meiyuan had already swaggered in, looking at the young girl expressionlessly, and coldly asked, "Who are you?"

The woman wasn't intimidated. She was beautiful, a bit flamboyant, and the host of a recent variety show. She had a fiery temper and was nicknamed "Little Chili" both on and off screen. She was Brother Duan's girlfriend.

Duan Sige is good-looking. Although he is not young, he is becoming more and more mature and steady. Xiao Lajiao does not know the details of the Duan family's financial ruin because Duan Sige is still a rich man. One of them emptied the family's coffers to buy laughter, while the other has long been eager to marry into a wealthy family.

Little Chili didn't even look at Duan Meiyuan. She was still fixing her hair with a curling iron, saying as she did so, "Auntie, didn't anyone tell you I'm Brother Yan's girlfriend?"

"What did you call me?"

The woman hadn't looked closely at the person because she only heard the voice. It was only after being suddenly scolded that she had a chance to glance at Duan Meiyuan. Although she was usually arrogant, she was also perceptive and could tell from Duan Meiyuan's clothes that the newcomer was up to no good.

Little Chili placed the curling iron on the table, slightly retracting it. "I wasn't looking closely just now, but this lady—"

"Who is your sister?" Duan Meiyuan directly called the housekeeper over.

The housekeeper approached Duan Meiyuan with trepidation.

Duan Meiyuan asked, "Who is she? Why is she in my room?"

"Miss, this is Miss Ren, the young master's girlfriend."

Duan Meiyuan's youngest brother got married but then divorced due to incompatibility. He never thought about getting married again because his previous marriage was unhappy and he had a child. His family wasn't in a hurry for him to get married.

Duan Meiyuan roughly knew that this Miss Ren was a woman in the entertainment industry. After being brought home by her brother and living in her room, her expression immediately changed. She walked up to Little Chili and slapped Miss Ren.

Miss Ren was stunned by the blow and raised her voice, "Why did you hit me?"

"This is my room. Didn't anyone tell you when you came to stay?"

"What do you mean 'your room'? This is the room Brother Yan arranged for me to stay in!"

Duan Meiyuan was so angry that she wanted to slap her again, but before she could do it, her brother stopped her, saying, "Meiyuan, Meiyuan, what are you doing?"

Duan Meiyuan looked at her brother and sneered, "What am I doing? I'm cleaning up the house for the family. You don't care about your reputation at all now, bringing all sorts of sluts home and letting them stay in my room—"

Duan Meiyuan's brother was exasperated by her words. He had just been drinking and hadn't been getting any money from Yu Jingchen lately. Seeing his sister bullying his girlfriend, he suddenly became furious and said to Duan Meiyuan, "What do you mean 'my room' and 'your room'? You're already married and you're still meddling in family matters all the time. Instead of worrying about the family, you should be more concerned about your son. I'm your brother, and when I ask my nephew for money, he makes excuses and refuses to give it to me. You, as his sister, don't even know how to stand up for your brother and instead you're meddling in family matters and bullying your sister-in-law!"

While Brother Duan was angrily rebuking Duan Meiyuan, Miss Ren also fell into Brother Duan's arms and sobbed softly, "Brother Yan, her slap made my face swell up, it hurts so much."
