Xu Hongying was wiping the table, her expression very calm: "What wild man? Don't talk nonsense. That's her business partner. She told me about him before she left."

Gu Qingqian rolled her eyes: "What kind of business partner needs to dine at the most upscale Western restaurant in Jiangcheng and even send red roses?"

"Mom, you didn't see it! The way that man looked at Shen Sisi was practically drooling! And they even held hands, laughing so happily!"

Gu Qingqian described it vividly, as if she were lying next to the two of them watching.

Xu Hongying listened to her detailed account, which seemed very convincing. A Western restaurant, and they even gave out red roses? Her hand, which was wiping the table, suddenly stopped.

"No way, you must be mistaken. Shen Sisi isn't that kind of person."

"Why not? The two of them even left in a car!"

“When they came out, I was watching from across the street. I’ve been home for ages and Chen Sisi still hasn’t come. Who knows what shady things they did in that car?”

Upon hearing this, Xu Hongying became somewhat anxious. If what Gu Qingqian said was true, wouldn't this four-wheeled car be faster than Gu Qingqian walking on two legs?

They still haven't come back at this hour, could it really be...?

Xu Hongying's expression was complicated. In the past, she had hoped more than anyone else that Shen Sisi would divorce her son, but for some reason, hearing that Shen Sisi might really abandon her son and run away with someone else made her uneasy.

"No, I have to ask her."

"Why ask? I think she's a promiscuous and unchaste woman. Otherwise, how did this bastard child come about?"

She glanced at Niu Niu with disdain.

Niu Niu was already grinding her teeth in anger. This wicked aunt actually spoke ill of her mother!

They're still calling her a bastard!

She's not an illegitimate child; she has a father and mother.

The more Niu Niu looked at Gu Qingqian, the angrier she became. With a "waa," she opened her mouth and bit the back of Gu Qingqian's hand.

The little guy may not be very old, but his teeth are surprisingly sharp, like an angry little tiger, he's using all his strength.

Gu Qingqian cried out in pain, making a sharp squeal like a groundhog. She tried to shake it off but was too weak to do so. Just as she was about to hit the little guy, her wrist was grabbed.

"What, you talked badly about me behind my back, and now you want to hit my child?" Shen Sisi was incredibly strong, her fingers clamping down on her tightly, almost crushing her two-ounce bones.

"You...you let me go!" Gu Qingqian cried out in pain, tears streaming down her face.

Xu Hongying was stunned for a long time before she remembered to try to mediate the fight.

"Stop hitting him! Let go!"

Chen Sisi gave Xu Hongying some face, and sternly let go of her fingers. Then she rubbed Niu Niu's little head, signaling her darling to let go.

"Sweetie, we won't bite dirty things."

Niu Niu looked at her mother, who appeared like a heavenly general, and teared up her tears with grievance: "Mom, you're finally back. This dirty aunt is talking bad about you."

"Dirty?" Gu Qingqian's eyes widened. "Who are you calling dirty?"

"I'm talking to you!" Shen Sisi hugged Niu Niu tenderly, checked her teeth, and was relieved to make sure she hadn't hurt herself.

"Chen Sisi, how dare you call me dirty!!!" Gu Qingqian has been the second young lady since childhood and is also a pianist. Who would dare to call her dirty?

Chen Sisi put down the flowers in her arms and gave the doll to Niu Niu, telling her to go play in her room and not get involved in adult matters.

Niu Niu was originally very sad and upset, but as soon as she saw the doll in the pink dress with golden curly hair, she immediately stopped crying and ran into the room with it.

As soon as the child left, Chen Sisi closed the door, her face as cold as an iceberg.

"What, did I say something wrong? You have a dirty heart and eyes, you see everything as dirty."

"You, you actually dare to insult me!"

"Scolding you is too lenient!"

Seeing that she couldn't win the argument, Gu Qingqian shifted her focus to the roses on the table.

"See? You even brought these flowers back. What did I tell you? You're just a fickle woman."

Shen Sisi wasn't angry, but looked at her with pity: "Gu Qingqian, have you never received flowers before?"

Gu Qingqian was provoked by her and completely lost her temper: "Who said I haven't received them? I receive flowers at every performance in Kyoto."

Chen Sisi spread her hands: "That's settled then. Compared to you, Second Sister, what is this bouquet of flowers? According to your philosophy, if I accept a bouquet of flowers, I am promiscuous. Then if you accept flowers every time, wouldn't you be promiscuous?"

Man! All! Yes! Husband!

Gu Qingqian was about to explode. When had she ever been insulted like this?

Even Xu Hongying thought those words were too harsh: "Sisi, how could you say that!"

"Mom, tell me, isn't that the truth?" Seeing that she wanted to smooth things over, Shen Sisi dragged her into the mess as well.

Xu Hongying was at her wits' end. She glared at her daughter and then said earnestly to Shen Sisi, "You two should both compromise. A bouquet of flowers doesn't necessarily mean anything, but Sisi, what's the deal with these flowers?"

Chen Sisi briefly recounted what happened at dinner: "This is just a Chinese herb from the medicinal herb garden. Someone gave it to me casually. How did it become evidence of my promiscuity in my second sister's mouth?"

"Anyone who can spout such fallacies is either a pitiful person who has never received flowers, or she herself is fickle!"

"You, you, you..." Gu Qingqian trembled all over, but couldn't utter a single word.

What could she say?

Does that mean we have to admit she's also promiscuous?

"Okay, you've gotten away with this flower thing, but did that man touch your hand?"
