She wouldn't go to extremes in the S City market; she would at least give those small and medium-sized jewelry companies some way to survive.
Money can never be fully earned, so why abandon your conscience and insist on dominating a certain market?
"Yes, yes, just watching for fun." Father Shen said with a broad smile as he watched the remaining rough stone being cut open piece by piece, revealing only two thin pieces of jade.
Old Master Ouyang could no longer contain his anger and stormed off.
"What are you looking at?!" Seeing that the main character had left, Shen Wangshu naturally had no desire to become the subject of others' gossip. Moreover, Xue Xuan was still waiting for her at home, and she missed Xue Xuan even more. However, as she casually glanced at the pale-faced Ouyang Yu and Gao Wanning, she heard Ouyang Huan angrily scolding her from the side.
The girl, forced by Ouyang Tang to wear a snow-white dress, stormed up to Shen Wangshu, pointed at her, and shouted angrily, "You think your scheme has succeeded?! Are you gloating?! You're happy to see my brother in trouble, aren't you?!"
Shen Wangshu squinted at her.
She moved her fingers, about to raise them to slap the thing, when she saw a beautiful gemstone flash before her eyes, followed by a crisp sound.
A slap landed on Ouyang Huan's face!
“The Ouyang family doesn’t know how to discipline their children, so we will.” Mother Shen calmly withdrew her hand, which was adorned with a jeweled chain, and looked at Ouyang Huan, who had once bullied her beloved daughter and was still arrogant.
Seeing the Ouyang family rush over in shock to support Ouyang Huan, who was covering her face and crying pitifully, she raised her hand to examine the beautiful jewelry that Shen Wangshu had designed for her. With a haughty expression, she coldly said, "What do you take the Shen family for?! Such rudeness! From now on, there will be no more..."
"No need to mention it again!" Father Shen sneered, supporting his wife and daughter as he coldly said, "You ill-mannered brats! Anyone who didn't know better would think you were some wild girl from outside!"
"But you can't hit people." When Madam Ouyang saw her daughter being hit, tears immediately fell from her eyes.
"That's exactly what I meant by hitting you." Madam Shen gripped Shen Wangshu's hand tightly, looking at her with a sneer. "It's the parents' fault if their children aren't taught properly! Look at her attitude, you can tell she's treated Shushu like this before. Shushu is a good person and doesn't hold it against her, but you all take advantage of her! Who do you think you are? Old Master Ouyang and my old Shen are on equal footing. To put it bluntly, you're just..."
She looked Madam Ouyang up and down and said disdainfully, "You're just a useless piece of trash with no power. When you become the president's wife and sit on equal footing with me, then you can talk to me!"
She also put on a very noble appearance, and the dazzling jewelry made her look even more elegant and extraordinary.
The second wife flinched and looked nervously at her sister-in-law, Ouyang Tang's mother.
She naturally wanted to be the president's wife and have everyone's support, but even if Old Master Ouyang was gone, the one who could be the president's wife would be the eldest son's sister-in-law, not her.
“You should discipline your son and daughter properly! These two are so unruly, you let them out without even raising them to the level of human beings. It's lucky they ran into me, so I let it go with this slap. If they had run into someone else…”
Madam Shen looked at the Second Madam's pale and frail face with a cold smile, and at the thoughtful expression of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ouyang family, and said indifferently, "You can't even raise your children well, which shows that you yourself are no good either!" After she finished speaking, she felt a breath of relief in her heart, and her gaze fell on Gao Wanning, who was gritting her teeth and looking at her with hatred.
"Miss Gao, is that right?" Madam Shen said with a smile.
These are Shen Shuya's parents, they will definitely humiliate her. Gao Wanning immediately tensed up.
"I have to thank you."
"What?!" Gao Wanning thought she had misheard.
"If you hadn't become the third party, my Shushu wouldn't have known what it means to be all show and no substance," Mother Shen said gently.
Having insulted two people in front of so many successful individuals, Gao Wanning couldn't imagine how she would face the world afterward. She feared that tomorrow, the biggest laughingstock in high society would be the Ouyang family and herself.
She wanted to marry into a wealthy family, but her mother ruined her reputation like this. Even if she married Ouyang Yu in the future, she would still have to bear a dishonorable reputation.
She was so angry that her eyes turned red, but she was helpless.
She does have the eye to see through the jade beneath the rough stone, but in this social setting, that ability is useless.
Her eyes reddened from being teased by Shen's mother, and she saw a group of wealthy women surrounding Shen's mother, all looking at her with mocking and disdainful eyes. Those standing here were all upper-class ladies; no one would be so tactless as to bring a mistress to such a banquet. But even if they didn't say it, there were quite a few women with mistresses at this banquet, and these wealthy women hated nothing more than alluring vixens outside the home.
Gao Wanning successfully rose to power by interfering in the relationship between Shen Shuya and Ouyang Yu, making her the most hated and wary of them.
“Miss Gao is resourceful and shrewd. I’ll give you Ouyang Xian’s gift. I wish you a long and happy marriage.” Father Shen said, squinting his eyes.
Since Old Master Ouyang had already left in anger, he no longer needed to worry about Shen Wangshu's reputation and being hypocritical with the Ouyang family, so he naturally became less restrained in his words.
He looked Gao Wanning up and down, sneered, and then pointed to Ouyang Huan, who was sobbing in the arms of the second madam, indicating that this matter was not over. Only then did he leisurely lead Shen's mother and Shen Wangshu out of the banquet.
Before leaving, he glanced back at the brightly lit banquet, sneered, and then got into the car to return to the Shen family home. He had finally vented his anger today and felt he could finally get a good night's sleep. He happily pulled his mother into the house, but when he looked up, he was immediately startled and stared at the dark living room.
