When Dong Wenqi pointed at Min'er for the second time, Lan Caihe was already standing in front of Min'er. Zhao Xiaoyue then slapped away the hand that was pointing at Min'er.
"ah!"
Dong Wenqi screamed, clutching her finger, "Brother Feng Lin, waaaaah, it hurts!"
Lan Caihe was utterly speechless. "She's my friend. She came to my house as a guest today. I, the host, am right here. How dare you, an outsider, give me such advice?"
"I'll tell Auntie, hmph!"
Dong Wenqi quickly turned her attention to Zhao Xiaoyue, "Where did this fat pig come from? A place like the Lan family is not a place for lowly people like you to enter, humph!"
Zhao Xiaoyue's eyes widened, and she pointed to her own nose. She? Fat pig?
Lan Feng walked over and pulled Dong Wenqi away unhappily, "Wenqi! Shut up! They are Caihe's friends. Apologize to them right now!"
Seeing that Lan Caihe was about to get into a fight with this person, Zhao Xiaoyue sneered: "Where did this bald cat come from? Squeaking and meowing, it seems its owner didn't leash it."
"Who are you calling a 'protruding cat,' you fat pig? Have you also taken a liking to Brother Feng Lin? Let me tell you, stop daydreaming!"
Zhao Xiaoyue was completely speechless.
She stood up and sized up the woman surnamed Dong. "Miss Bald Cat, did you not wake up properly this morning? Or are you suffering from delusions?"
This is the Lan family, and she still has to consider the Lan family's reputation, so she can't say anything too harsh.
"Your eyes have run away from home, so go look for them. Don't you see we're still students?"
Caihe adopted her haughty demeanor as the young lady of the Lan family, "You surnamed Dong, you don't think you're anyone in my family, do you?"
She glanced at Lan Fenglin, who was rubbing his temples. Her brother was the worst at dealing with the complicated relationships between girls.
"What kind of dream is this? You want to marry my brother? Hehe."
Caihe leaned back in her chair. "With your pig-like brain and toad-like appearance, you think you can climb into the Lan family's gate? Even if Nan Fenglin stays a bachelor for life, it won't be your turn!"
"You, you, you..."
Even if Dong Wenqi had ten times the courage, she wouldn't dare to confront Lan Caihe head-on.
Zhao Xiaoyue understood; it turned out this was an admirer of Young Master Lan.
This is the Lan family home, so they couldn't say much.
Dong Wenqi burst into tears, pointing her finger at Min'er, "She's a vixen from the slums! Why do you think she approached you? Wasn't it all for Brother Feng Lin?"
"Calling me a vixen?" Min'er smiled and agreed. "That's a pretty good compliment. Since ancient times, beautiful women have been called vixens!"
Since this isn't the first time people have commented on my appearance and personality like this, what does it matter?
Can't she control her own destiny now, can't she control her own temper?
"How can you be so shameless?" Dong Wenqi said angrily.
Lan Fenglin finally couldn't take it anymore and said coldly, "Get out of here!"
Dong Wenqi stamped her foot, "Brother Feng Lin, how could you treat me like this?"
“Listen carefully, my mommy only gave birth to the two of us, brother and sister. If I hear you call him brother again, I will have my aunt teach you a lesson about manners.”
Finally, Lan Caihe leaned close to her brother and said, "Lan Fenglin, Mom wants you to be the chairman of the company, not for you to be so subservient to others."
Lan Fenglin pulled Dong Wenqi outside.
"Go back!"
"Brother Fenglin, you wouldn't really have taken a liking to that maid, would you? What do I lack compared to her?"
Lan Fenglin repeated his previous statement, "I will tell my aunt not to come looking for me again!"
Then the door was closed!
"Brother Fenglin! Brother Fenglin!"
Lan Feng sighed and walked into the restaurant. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let her in."
What Lan Caihe finds most frustrating is that her brother never knows how to refuse people.
I gave my aunt and this crazy person a ride when it was raining, and that's how I got entangled with them.
If it weren't for her being there last year, she would have brazenly slept in her brother's room.
I've never seen him so indecisive about anything else, really!
Zhao Xiaoyue smiled and replied, "It has nothing to do with Brother Lan, you don't need to apologize. Oh, by the way, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. We'll take care of these."
Min'er acted like a complete outsider, as if Dong Wenqi wasn't the one being scolded.
Lan Caihe also spoke up to shoo him away, "Go to the study, I'll call the cleaning lady to tidy up."
Lan Fenglin glanced at the person sitting quietly and said, "I have some business to attend to at my company, so I'll head back first."
Whew~
The three girls sat quietly for a few minutes before Zhao Xiaoyue broke the silence, "Your brother..."
Lan Caihe: "Min'er noticed it too, didn't she?"
Min'er smiled sweetly, "Can I tell you the truth?"
The two nodded.
Lan Caihe had known about her brother's intentions for a long time, and so did her mother.
Families like theirs are among the top wealthy families in Shanghai, and they don't need to form alliances through marriage to solidify their status.
She also really hoped that Min'er would fall in love with her brother, as her parents both liked this quiet and gentle girl.
Alas...
Min'er took a sip of juice, smiled, and said, "I'm going to be a non-marriage advocate!"
One sentence says it all.
Zhao Xiaoyue was slightly taken aback: "Is this the new trend?"
Lan Caihe shrugged. "I brought her home, thinking that I could easily woo this little white rabbit home, but I didn't expect her to have her own temper."
Zhao Xiaoyue was surprised, "You actually had such plans?"
Lan Caihe shrugged, "Yeah!"
Min'er chuckled and explained, "Don't listen to her nonsense. I've always been a temporary worker here because the uncles and aunts pay me a high wage."
