Cai Lian watched her leisurely with a faint smile on her face, not responding to her words, just wanting to see what else she could say.
Xie Jiaoniang felt a chill run down her spine when she saw Cai Lian's smile.
No wonder Brother Xin always thought about her; it turns out he has such a fun-loving wife at home.
She deserved it.
Tears streamed down Xie Jiaoniang's cheeks: "I was just trying to give Boss Cai some advice, I had no other intentions. Boss Cai spoke so harshly to me, why did it have to come to this!"
Cai Lian smiled and said, "May I ask, Mrs. Jiang, which of my words was malicious? Is it that I can't learn the tricks of a married woman getting a job, or that I don't want to win your Brother Xin's favor?"
Xie Jiaoniang felt proud when she heard "Your letter" from her brother, but she always felt that Cai Lian was acting a little strange when she said those words.
It's like the "Brother Xin" she mentioned isn't her husband?
Xie Jiaoniang wiped away her tears with a handkerchief: "I'm sorry, Boss Cai, I know that it's taboo for shop owners to cry in their shops, but I'm really wronged."
Cai Lian: "I'd like to know, Mrs. Jiang, if you've been wronged, are you going to find Mr. Jiang or your Brother Xin?"
Xie Jiaoniang blushed slightly and said apologetically, "Please rest assured, Mr. Cai, I will not tell Brother Xin about you making me cry today, as long as you agree to sell me the blueprints."
Cai Lian laughed angrily: "Mrs. Jiang, it's my name that has 'Lian' in it, not yours!"
Xie Jiaoniang looked at Cai Lian, puzzled, wondering why she had suddenly chosen a name.
Cai Lian said, "The white lotus rises from the mud unsullied. I suggest Mrs. Jiang change her name to Xie Bailian!"
Xie Jiaoniang: "...What do you mean? A name is given by one's parents. Why is Boss Cai suddenly asking me to change my name?"
I have a feeling that the white lotus that Cai mentioned isn't a good thing!
Cai Lian: "Because you're like a white lotus! But this is just a suggestion! Alright, Mrs. Jiang, I won't sell these blueprints, and I don't want to know your method of gaining Brother Xin's favor. So, please leave!"
He finished, picked up his teacup, and saw the guest off.
Xie Jiaoniang frowned slightly, pursed her cherry lips, and used a handkerchief to cover the corners of her mouth.
Cai Lian rolled her eyes, stopped laughing, and said bluntly, "Mrs. Jiang, I'm a woman, not a man. Even if you put on this act, I won't change my mind. Really. I don't know if Mr. Jiang knows what you've said to me. If he does, then it's clear that Mrs. Jiang's second marriage isn't very manly. If he doesn't know, then it's clear that you, Mrs. Jiang, are eyeing Mrs. Gu's position while pretending to be Mrs. Jiang!"
Xie Jiaoniang pointed at Cai Lian with her handkerchief, her hand trembling slightly: "What nonsense are you spouting! Why are you so vulgar, saying such things to ruin my reputation?"
Cai Lian stood up abruptly and walked step by step toward Xie Jiaoniang.
Xie Jiaoniang leaned back in her chair involuntarily, her eyes filled with panic and fear: "What...what do you want to do?"
Cai Lian walked up to her, bent down slightly, placed her hands on the armrests of the chair, wrapped her arms around Xie Jiaoniang, and laughed contemptuously, "What can I do? What can a woman like me do to you? But even if I were a man, I wouldn't be interested in doing anything to you! You're of an age where your daughters are old enough to get married, yet you act so hypocritically. Thinking about your husband and your brother Xin, it's truly disgusting!"
