That's a good point.
Isn't she just saying that she's not as gentle and virtuous as Tang Yujiao, only good at showing her face in public, and not good enough for Xiao Jinhan at all?
After hearing this, Tang Shengze coughed lightly and glared at her.
Lin Hui felt uncomfortable, but she could only suppress it and continue to smile gently: "Come on, have some soup and try it."
Tang Shengze picked out a sea cucumber for Tang Yaoyao and said in a low voice, "My daughter, you just need to be yourself and don't need to cater to anyone."
It was as if he was comforting her soul; a simple sentence, yet it carried a deep fatherly love.
Tang Yaoyao smiled and, in front of everyone, looked at the noble and handsome man sitting beside her, a sly glint in her fox-like eyes.
She directly showed off her affection: "My hands have never lifted a finger, and I don't plan to learn to cook in the future. Will you look down on me?"
Xiao Jinhan shook his head, his voice deep and captivating: "You don't need to learn, I can do it, and you don't need to listen to what others say. Don't ask such questions again in the future."
It means that he will not dislike her in the future.
The warmth in her voice also carried an invisible power, making everyone in the room understand one thing: she was the girl he cherished, and there was no need for any change.
Lin Hui realized she had shot herself in the foot, her face paled for a moment, and she awkwardly tried to smooth things over: "Yes, yes, Yaoyao is just like that, and that's perfect."
This statement is tantamount to contradicting oneself and denying how outstanding Tang Yujiao is.
Tang Yujiao remained silent, as if she were an outsider watching this verbal battle.
Lin Hui sat down, still feeling uncomfortable. Tang Yaoyao was no match for her Jiaojiao at all, but in fact, she was the one Xiao Jinhan cherished and doted on.
In an instant, she saw the contrast between Tang Yaoyao and her daughter, and she began to think about how to make Xiao Jinhan look at Jiaojiao more.
Thinking about it, and then talking casually, she looked at Tang Yaoyao and said, "Yaoyao, I heard from Jiaojiao that you're doing very well in the entertainment industry now, and you might be crowned Best Actress by the end of the year. You two sisters both work in the entertainment industry, so you should be able to look out for each other."
Then, she said very generously, "Your sister is the kind of person who doesn't like to compete with others. When she heard that you wanted to play the female lead in 'The Fox Fairy,' she took the initiative to withdraw. Now, Mom just hopes that you can take care of each other."
She implied that Tang Yaoyao was selfish and didn't care about sisterly affection at all, while her older sister always gave in to her, which is why she has her current status.
But who in the entertainment industry doesn't know this?
The role of the fox spirit was something Tang Yaoyao earned through her own efforts.
Even if she had auditioned back then, she still wouldn't have been as good as her.
She had watched the show, and the character seemed tailor-made for Tang Yaoyao. Bringing it up now made her feel somewhat disgusted.
What about Mr. Xiao, the investor sitting across from us?
Tang Yujiao frowned slightly, and before Tang Yaoyao could speak, she spoke first: "Mom, you shouldn't get involved in our work matters, and don't say such things again."
When her daughter contradicted her on the spot, Lin Hui felt a tightness in her chest, unable to breathe, her eyes filled with disappointment, but she could only endure it.
Tang Shengze realized that both of her sentences were slandering Yaoyao, and he felt a surge of anger rising within him.
He realized that Lin Hui had absolutely no remorse.
He put down his chopsticks, his expression growing cold.
