What's called a big deal is usually just trivial matters.

Su Li glanced into the private room and lowered her voice, saying, "I'm at work, so don't cause trouble. I'll hang up now."

"Young Master Linfeng said he lost his temper last night and spoke recklessly. Please don't take it to heart. He's hosting a banquet at home today to apologize. You should ask your boss for leave and come back right away."

"How can I just take leave from work like that? You guys eat by yourselves, bye."

After saying that, she hung up the phone and switched to airplane mode.

Huang Yumei tried calling several more times, but the calls couldn't be connected.

"That brat, did she block me again? That's so unfair!"

Huang Yumei cursed a few times and turned back to the living room.

Shen Linfeng and Zhou Kai sat at the table watching her; the table was already laden with a sumptuous meal.

Zhou Kai asked, "How's your wife? When is that girl coming back?"

“She said we’ll eat by ourselves and she won’t come back.”

"That brat, why is she so stubborn? I called her back myself, and she's gone too far. Now she won't listen to me anymore, huh?"

Zhou Kai was about to get up when Huang Yumei stopped him, saying, "Alright, alright, don't go. Su Li will definitely not answer our calls again. We'll talk to her properly when she comes back next time."

Shen Linfeng sat in the middle with a dark expression, clearly displeased.

"Young Master Linfeng, look, Su Li is too busy with work to come back, so shall we eat by ourselves first?"

Zhou Kai replied, "Don't worry, we'll definitely teach that girl a lesson when she gets back. How could she be so disrespectful to you? She's just out of control without her parents. Her aunt and I will definitely give her a good talking-to."

"Alright, all of you get out!" Shen Linfeng raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, somewhat annoyed.

Huang Yumei and Zhou Kai exchanged a glance. "Young Master Linfeng, you promised us that you would arrange for our son and daughter to get into the best middle school in Haicheng?"

"I'll have my assistant arrange this, so you don't need to worry."

"Okay, okay!"

Huang Yumei and Zhou Kai left with a relieved look on their faces.

Outside the door, a well-dressed couple walked in.

When they saw Huang Yumei and her husband, their expressions were very unpleasant.

Shen Linfeng stood up and called out, "Dad, Aunt Yuan, what brings you here?"

Quan Lang snorted coldly with a dark face, pulled out the chair opposite him and sat down, throwing a stack of papers in front of him, "What have you been doing lately? Have you been working properly?!"

"Dad, why are you so angry?"

Shen Linfeng picked up the papers on the table and glanced at them; they were all records of his recent large expenditures.

Quan Lang can see all his spending records, and even knows exactly where the money was spent.

“These days you’ve been buying houses, jewelry, cars, and other valuables. Lin Feng, our Quan family isn’t short of money, but it’s not worth it for you to spend it on that couple. Do you think our family is a charity?”

"Dad, let me explain."

"What else do you have to explain? This big house was given to them by you. We all saw it with our own eyes. They're living here happily as a family. Linfeng, they're not related to you at all. What are you after?"

After speaking, He Yuan walked to Quan Lang's side and put her arm around his shoulder.

A red bodycon dress accentuated her curvaceous figure, her wavy hair added a touch of flirtatiousness, and her heavy makeup and alluring eyes captivated her.

She is Quan Lang's new wife and Shen Linfeng's stepmother.

I heard that she was a nobody in the entertainment industry before, but she was noticed by Quan Lang and entered the Quan family.

Shen Linfeng also looked down on his stepmother, who came from a humble background. However, He Yuan, relying on Quan Lang's favor, liked to boss him around and was disliked by everyone.
