Song Mai didn't want to get entangled with the woman in front of her, so she gently shook her head at Lin Ran, signaling her not to reveal too much personal information.
Qian Xiran's expression changed drastically, and she tried to lash out several times.
Out of consideration for her pride, she ultimately just kept a gloomy face and coldly said, "Since you are so familiar with Uncle Shen, why don't you meet at the Shen family home tonight?"
“Personally, I think it’s impolite to trouble the Shen family like this.” Song Mai found it utterly absurd.
"Are you unwilling to trouble the Shen family, or are you afraid?" Qian Xiran laughed. "Since you don't have the courage, don't say such absurd things."
"Alright, then I'll take it as my fault." Song Mai turned her head back to look at the menu with An An, not wanting to say anything more.
Qian Xiran left satisfied, believing she had won.
Lin Ran gritted her teeth as she watched the two figures leave, and whispered, "Are you just going to let them go like that?"
"What else can we do?" Song Mai smiled. "No matter what we argue with them about, they'll always find a million ways to argue their point. And there's no need to trouble the Shen family with something like this, is there?"
Lin Ran let out a heavy sigh: "That's true."
After strolling around for a while, the group returned to the hotel.
Song Lan looked at Song Mai with a worried expression, forcing a smile.
Song Mai asked with concern, "Auntie, what's wrong?"
"I just heard someone tell me that your uncle is having an affair, but I don't know if it's true or not."
Song Lan and Shen Ming have been in a loving relationship for many years and have never had any extramarital affairs.
Song Lan is like a carefully nurtured rose; even in her forties, she still acts like an innocent young girl.
Seeing her anxious expression, Song Mai whispered to comfort her, "Uncle isn't that kind of person. Perhaps someone is deliberately spreading rumors. You don't need to take it to heart. After all these years of friendship, shouldn't you trust Uncle's character?"
"Even so, I can't help feeling a little uneasy."
Lin Ran and Song Mai persuaded her for a long time before Song Lan finally felt at ease.
Shen Xiujing approached the three people and said softly, "I don't know if you have time now, why don't we go home together for a meal?"
"Look at my memory! I originally wanted to invite you guys home for dinner, but it turned into my rant session instead."
Song Lan warmly took the two women's hands and led them to the Shen family home.
Song Mai could see that the Shen family adored An'an and understood that they meant no harm.
Unable to refuse their hospitality, Song Mai and Lin Ran brought An An to the Shen family home.
Worried that Song Mai might feel embarrassed, Shen Xiujing carefully stayed by her side, chatting and keeping her company.
Coincidentally, the two of them received the same phone call and went to Shen Family Garden together.
When Song Mai finished making the call, she only saw Shen Xiujing hurriedly walk out of the Shen family home.
Guessing that he had encountered an emergency, Song Mai returned to the villa alone.
Before I even stepped into the living room, I heard a familiar voice coming from inside.
Qian Xiran said aggrievedly, "Auntie, this woman not only seduced Uncle, but she also tried to seduce Xiujing."
“Your uncle wouldn’t be that kind of person. Xiujing, you’re at the age where you should be thinking about marriage. If you’re really just dating, I won’t say anything more.”
Because of Song Mai's reassurance, Song Lan had no worries at all.
Seeing that her attempt to sow discord had failed, Qian Xiran nervously spoke up: "If this woman really is trying to seduce Uncle, how can she continue to stay by Xiujing's side?"
"this……"
The dialogue inside made Song Mai chuckle.
Unexpectedly, he overheard Qian Xiran spreading rumors, which was quite a rare and funny situation.
Upon hearing the sound, Qian Xiran stared wide-eyed at Song Mai's slowly approaching figure.
"How dare you show your face here, woman?! You seduced Uncle, and you even tried to seduce Xiujing. A woman as filthy as you doesn't deserve to be in the Shen family!"
Qian Xiran spoke anxiously, gripping Song Lan's hand tightly.
"Auntie, look how outrageous this woman is! She actually came directly to the Shen family!"
Song Lan looked at Qian Xiran with a puzzled expression, but did not show any anger.
"You mean Wan'er?"
Seeing that things weren't going as Qian Xiwei had imagined, she couldn't help but raise her voice and plead, "Auntie, what's wrong with you? Are you going to let this woman continue to do evil in the Shen family?"
"Tell me, what have I done?" Song Mai was very curious about what kind of jokes the woman he had only met once could come up with.
Qian Xiran took a deep breath and pointed her finger at Song Mai's nose.
"You seduced Uncle Shen, getting him to bring you to the Shen family. At the same time, you also seduced Shen Xiujing, and even publicly provoked me in the restaurant. Are these things true?"
Seeing that Song Mai didn't answer immediately, Qian Xiran crossed her arms triumphantly: "I was right, you are such a filthy and vicious woman! If you hadn't pestered me so much, how could Uncle Shen have allowed you to come here?"
Song Mai stared at her as if she were a fool, then slowly turned her gaze to Song Lan.
"Auntie, is everything she said true?"
Unexpectedly, Song Mai still dared to approach Song Lan. Qian Xiran was so angry that she almost jumped up and down: "Don't think that just because your aunt has a good temper, she will tolerate you. Believe me, I'll have someone kick you out right now!"
Song Lan was completely confused and finally couldn't help but ask, "Is there some misunderstanding between you two?"
Qian Xiran snorted coldly: "What misunderstanding could there be? This woman is definitely not as innocent as she looks!"
“I invited Wan’er to my home for dinner, and she already has someone else she likes, so she would never do the things you’re talking about.”
How ridiculous is it for one's own daughter to seduce her father?
Song Lan's face also showed some displeasure, and her tone was naturally not as gentle as before: "Stop making a fuss."
Song Xiran proudly raised her chin and chimed in, "Did you hear that? Your aunt told you to stop being so unreasonable!"
When Shen Xiujing returned from answering the phone, she was even more confused upon hearing this: "What are you talking about?"
"Xiujing! You're so foolish! How could you get entangled with a woman like that! You have no idea how upset she's made your aunt!"
Song Xiran started talking, spouting all sorts of nonsensical nonsense.
Shen Xiujing, completely unaware of what was happening, turned to look at Song Mai in surprise: "What is she talking about?"
Song Mai shrugged innocently: "I don't know either."
"Enough!" Song Lan lost her patience.
Song Xiran added fuel to the fire, saying, "Auntie, you should kick this woman out right now and not let her stay here any longer!"
“Xi Ran, you shouldn’t slander others so indiscriminately. Wan Er was invited by me and your Uncle Shen, and the situation you described will never happen.”
