Chapter 174 Tearing Apart a Shrew!

Su Yue peeked half her head out from behind Gu Beichen's arm, smiling as she looked at Chu Yanran, who was trembling with anger.

"At your age, you still have such a bad temper. Is it a hormonal imbalance?"

The word "Auntie" was like two steel needles, piercing Chu Yanran's heart.

She hates it most when people say she's old!

She uses the most expensive face cream and eats the best supplements every day just to maintain her youthful appearance!

Su Yue, however, seemed oblivious to the rage blazing in her eyes, and continued in a very professional tone, slowly adding:

"I see that your face is flushed, your emotions are unstable, and you also have symptoms of impotent rage, which is very typical."

She paused for a moment, then suggested very considerately, "I know an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor who specializes in treating menopausal syndrome, and the results are particularly good. Would you like me to introduce you to him?"

menopause!

These three words were like three bolts of lightning, striking Chu Yanran directly on the head!

She's completely gone mad!

"You little bitch! You're talking nonsense! Your whole family is going through menopause!"

Chu Yanran completely abandoned her pretense of being a noblewoman and began to hurl insults like a shrew cursing in the street.

"You shameless vixen! You and your short-lived father are both bastards! I curse you..."

Before she could finish her vicious curse, she was interrupted.

"What are you doing? Making such a scene in a state-run restaurant, what kind of behavior is this!"

A dignified female voice rang out.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a well-dressed, dignified middle-aged woman walking over with a frown, accompanied by the hotel manager.

She is Vice Commander Wang's wife, Madam Wang!

The ladies around Chu Yanran's face changed when they saw the newcomer. They quickly lowered their heads and dared not utter a sound.

The hotel manager was sweating profusely and quickly stepped forward to explain, "Madam Wang, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry for disturbing you. I'll handle it right away!"

Madam Wang ignored the manager and scanned the scene. When she saw Su Yue being protected by Gu Beichen, she paused for a moment, then a knowing and kind smile appeared in her eyes.

She had just heard from her husband, Lao Wang, a couple of days ago that the Gu family's capable second daughter-in-law had come to Beijing, and that she had been invited by Zhang Shengshou from Peking Union Medical College Hospital as a precious treasure.

I never expected to run into this today.

Looking at the woman opposite her, who seemed insane and spewed vulgarities, Madam Wang frowned even more deeply.

She had some impression of Chu Yanran; she was the notoriously difficult daughter of the Chu family.

Madam Wang couldn't stand this arrogant and domineering attitude that relied on family background.

She didn't give Chu Yanran a chance to explain, and directly turned to the restaurant manager beside her, giving instructions in a calm but authoritative low voice:

"Please ask this lady to leave."

"We don't want to see her at any of the military region's family gatherings anymore."

Madam Wang paused, glanced at Su Yue again, and added, "Don't disturb the distinguished guests invited by Zhang Shengshou."

She didn't emphasize the word "distinguished guest," but it was enough for everyone around her to hear it clearly.

The hotel manager instantly understood, and his gaze towards Su Yue immediately filled with awe.

Without saying a word, he immediately gave a wink to the two security guards next to him.

"Ms. Chu, please."

Two tall security guards, one on each side, stepped forward and restrained Chu Yanran, who was still in a daze.

"What are you doing! Let me go! Do you know who I am?!"

Chu Yanran then realized what was happening and began to struggle frantically.

"Wang Min! How dare you treat me like this! I..."

However, no matter how much she shouted, the security guards dragged her out without any mercy.

The other ladies who came with her were all silent, wishing they could disappear into the ground, and none of them dared to say a word.

The farce ended in such an extremely humiliating way.

Silence returned to the corridor.

Madam Wang then approached Su Yue and Gu Beichen with an apologetic smile.

"Is this Xiao Su? I'm your Aunt Wang. I've heard your father and Zhengfeng mention you all the time. You're such a good child."

She took Su Yue's hand, patted it affectionately, and her eyes were full of the loving kindness of an elder.

"I'm sorry to have startled you. Don't take that kind of person to heart."

Feeling the warmth from the back of her hand, Su Yue nodded obediently, "Thank you, Aunt Wang."

She knew that the winds in Beijing were about to shift.

"Beichen, your wife is a real treasure! She never suffers a loss and is just to my liking!"

Gu Beichen's terrifying aura vanished completely the moment Su Yue sat down.

He carefully adjusted the cushions for Su Yue, then poured her a glass of warm water and handed it to her. The whole process was smooth and effortless, as if he had done it a thousand times before.

He then looked up at Madam Wang and nodded slightly.

"Aunt Wang, you flatter me. It's just that she has a good personality."

Madam Wang was amused by his blatant lies and fierce protectiveness.

Good-natured?

Those few words, though not offensive in themselves, were like knives stabbing into people's hearts, tearing away Chu Yanran's mask.

Is that what you call a good temperament? That's called off-the-charts fighting power!

Su Yue picked up her water glass, took a sip obediently, and smiled sweetly at Madam Wang: "Thank you so much, Aunt Wang, for helping me out of that situation."

"What are you thanking me for!" Madam Wang waved her hand dismissively, lowering her voice, her face displaying the straightforwardness and disdain typical of women from the capital. "You can't be polite when dealing with someone like Chu Yanran! If you back down even a little today, she'll be riding on your head tomorrow!"

Mrs. Wang was clearly a gossip enthusiast, and once she started talking, she couldn't stop.

"She's notorious in our circle. She was wicked even when she was young, and her jealousy was so strong that she could poison herself. Relying on the old man of the Chu family's power and with her muddle-headed mother protecting her, she's done a lot of despicable things."

Su Yue acted like a curious child, blinking her clear, big eyes.

"Is she really that amazing? Aunt Wang, what has she done?"

The way she called out "Aunt Wang" was so sweet and soft that it melted Mrs. Wang's heart, and she found Su Yue even more pleasing to the eye.

"There are so many!" Madam Wang exclaimed, leaning forward slightly as she began to reveal more.

"Let's talk about twenty years ago, when she was about your age. I don't know what got into her, but she became infatuated with a young military officer. Oh my, that officer was really... how should I put it, he was an outstanding person, a celestial being descended to earth. He came from a respectable family, and he was also very capable. At a young age, he made outstanding military achievements and was the dream lover of every girl in the entire military compound at that time."

As Madam Wang spoke, a hint of longing appeared in her eyes.

Su Yue's heart skipped a beat, and she tightened her grip on the water glass, but her face still held just the right amount of curiosity.
