Not far away, Su Man listened to their speculations and walked away with peace of mind.
She hadn't explained it to them clearly just now, but had only given them some clues and let them guess for themselves.
Gossip is like this, the less clear it is, the more confusing it is, the more astonishing the force and speed of its spread.
If she told them everything directly, they might not believe it, and might even think she was just talking nonsense.
Then she would take advantage of the "innocence" of young children and let them ask questions. After getting the key information, they would make their own guesses, achieving twice the result with half the effort.
After laying the trap for Jiang Yao, Su Man went to prepare for the next move.
As soon as Su Man left, Jiang Ying came over with Jiang Xiangrong. Jiang Xiangrong was like other gentlemen at the banquet, holding a champagne glass and waving to the ladies in a casual manner.
"What are the ladies talking about? They look so happy."
Jiang Xiangrong knew very well that if he wanted to gain a foothold in this circle, the wives' circle was equally important, so not only did he have to build good relationships with those bosses, but it would be best if Jiang Ying could also join the wealthy ladies' circle.
Jiang Ying had done her homework in advance and said to Mrs. Huang, the soul of the wives' circle, "Hello, Mrs. Huang. I saw the poodle in your arms from afar. You take really good care of it."
In order to break into the circle of wealthy women, Jiang Ying had made a special trip to inquire about the preferences of several wives. Mrs. Huang was particularly popular in the wives' circle. She was also one of the clients Jiang Xiangrong wanted to win over. So Jiang Ying chose to talk to her as soon as she appeared.
Jiang Ying thought that she could establish a good relationship with Mrs. Huang by catering to her preferences. However, she didn't know that Su Man had already set an example. Su Man not only prepared cookies for Barbara in advance, but also "still remembered" the banquet that Mrs. Huang had prepared for Barbara.
Compared with Su Man, Jiang Ying's empty talk inevitably makes people feel deliberate.
Not to mention that Mrs. Huang just dug up her history of coming to power. For "consorts" like them, the people they dislike the most are people like Jiang Ying.
Facing Jiang Ying's advances, Mrs. Huang raised her chin, touched Barbara in her arms, and said indifferently, "Hmm."
Jiang Ying hit a wall that was neither soft nor hard, and her smile froze slightly. Even Jiang Xiangrong beside her became embarrassed and winked at her, asking her to find someone else.
Jiang Ying then turned her gaze to Mrs. Li beside her. "Mrs. Li, I heard that your daughter is also in the second grade at No. 1 Middle School, right? My son is too. He once told me that your daughter's essays are very good and are often used as model essays. She's really amazing."
Since pets don’t work, try children instead. There is no mother who doesn’t like to hear others praise her children.
Jiang Ying had a good idea on this point. Mrs. Li really liked to hear others praise her children, but the problem was who was praising them.
A few days ago, she had a quarrel with her husband because of his female secretary, and now she was displeased with Jiang Ying.
She gets furious whenever she thinks that her husband might have had an illegitimate child with his secretary behind her back, waiting for her death so he can take over.
Mrs. Li put on a sullen face, a typical lady's expression, and touched her fur coat. "Really? I think your son is pretty impressive. He can recognize the daughter of his father's partner and even go back to tell you. Isn't that impressive?"
This was even more impolite. Jiang Xiangrong couldn't hold back his pride anymore and said to Jiang Ying, "Your wives can chat. I'll go over there and say a few words."
After saying this, he left without waiting for their reaction, and his back seemed to carry some anger.
After Jiang Xiangrong left, Jiang Ying's situation became even more awkward. Mrs. Huang and the others gathered together to chat and laugh. Although they didn't chase her away, no one paid any attention to her.
This kind of silent exclusion was the most embarrassing, but Jiang Ying could tolerate it. Even though she knew they didn't like her, she still insisted on staying and listened to their conversation with a smile on her face.
Fortunately, Jiang Ying had prepared a violin performance for the banquet. With the music, she was finally less embarrassed.
At this point, Jiang Ying's plan to join the wives' circle has failed, and now she can only pin her hopes on Jiang Yao.
When the waiter brought the second round of drinks, Jiang Ying winked at Jiang Yao who was looking at her.
Jiang Yao understood what he meant and immediately went to Su Man.
I have to say that although Jiang Ying had no good intentions, she did choose a good skirt.
When Su Man put it on, the girl's youthful and charming appearance was well displayed. It was not a very exaggerated style, with a just right drooping tail that rested lightly on the ground.
This skirt is not completely slim-fitting, especially the upper body. The weight is all on the thin strap around the neck. As long as Jiang Yao steps on the hem and the strap breaks, Su Man will definitely be exposed.
Yang Man suffered the same fate before. Her upper body was exposed, and she had no time to catch the culprit. By the time she reacted, Jiang Yao had already slipped away.
...
At this moment, Jiang Yao was observing his surroundings. While everyone was paying attention to the violin performance in front, he was silently approaching Su Man.
Su Man was standing close to the wall, with few people walking behind her, so this was the best time to take action.
As Jiang Yao approached, he kept an eye on Grandma Jiang's location. He would run to Grandma Jiang's side soon, and then Grandma Jiang would testify for him.
The music was stirring, and the violin was reaching its climax.
Right now.
Jiang Yao stepped hard on the palm-sized part of Su Man's skirt and quickly stepped back. When the skirt fell off Su Man, Jiang Yao smiled.
However, just as he started to run, he tripped and fell to the ground.
At the same time, there was a "swish" sound, and Su Man's skirt was torn into pieces.
"ah!"
Suman screamed, "My skirt."
