Chapter 53: Scheming Beauty vs. Dark Minister 015
When Hatsuri heard the voice, she felt it was very familiar.
She immediately turned around and looked back, and found that it was Nanqing and her aunt who came.
The two of them had smug and arrogant expressions on their faces, and she looked at him with a smirk on her face.
Hatsuri felt something was wrong.
She was seen holding Mother Xie's hand in a very affectionate manner: "Mother, although Brother Huai'an asked us to leave the Xie Mansion, we also know that Brother Huai'an wanted us to be self-reliant. Now my mother and I have made a lot of money by setting up our own shop outside. Today, my mother and I made some food and handmade products for my mother."
Xie's mother was a kind and gentle person. She had always felt a little resentful about Xie Huai'an driving them away, because they were her husband's last relatives on earth.
So she tolerated them in everything.
It’s a good thing that they are willing to come now.
"Okay, okay, please sit down. I'm very happy that you can come today. You don't need to bring anything. I also want to apologize to you for what Huai'an did. But you still have to take care of yourselves when you live outside."
Xie Huai'an appeared at this moment.
He leaned on the side, looking very comfortable and lazy, but when he looked at the mother and daughter, his expression immediately turned cold.
When Nanqing and her mother met Xie Huai'an's eyes, they both became very reserved in an instant.
I'm just afraid that I'll be kicked out again soon.
Hatsuri wanted to withdraw from the battlefield.
But Nanqing would never let her get away so easily, so he said as soon as she took a step forward: "I wonder what gift our sister Chuli prepared?"
In an instant, Hatsuri's feet stopped in mid-air, and everyone present turned their eyes to her.
An embarrassing scene occurred at this moment.
She turned her head and looked at her, without losing any aura. It was not that she had not prepared a gift, she just wanted to give it to Xie's mother later.
I just didn't expect that Nan Qing would sow discord here.
"Sister, what are you doing? Why don't you take out your gift and let everyone taste it to see if it's delicious? That way we can patronize your business more often, right?"
The focus of the topic was suddenly changed by Hatsuri.
Everyone was talking about what delicious food it was, and no one cared what gift Hatsuri would prepare.
Nan Qing had no choice but to take it out first under everyone's persuasion. What she prepared for Xie's mother was unique.
So he called people to distribute those things.
In fact, she bought these sweets at the market. She didn't care about Xie's mother's birthday party.
This is not her main business today.
She brought in an exquisitely decorated packaging box and handed it to Chu Li, saying politely, "Sister, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I was very happy to learn that you and Brother Huai'an are getting married. This is the wedding candy cake I made for you. Come and try it."
There’s a pit!
What a huge scam!
These words immediately attracted the attention of many people, and they all wanted to know what this was.
Then she took out an exquisite package and walked aside to hand it to Xie Huai'an.
Her face was full of shame, "Brother Huai'an, I made this for you myself."
He even took it apart and half of it was handed to him.
Chu Li watched her deliberate action with disdainful eyes and couldn't help but sigh.
How come it still looks the same, it hasn't changed at all...
Can't you see that Xie Huai'an doesn't want to pay attention to her?
Xie Huai'an didn't even look at her. Nan Qing felt embarrassed and whispered in his ear: "Brother Huai'an, today I will let you know who cares about you the most and who is the one who deceived your feelings."
This aroused Xie Huai'an's interest.
He curled his lips, crossed his arms over his chest, and asked curiously, "Do you mean there will be another good show today?"
This look.
This look.
This smile.
This is the first time that Brother Huai'an treats me like this!
This is also the first time I look at myself like this!
At this moment she was so excited that she was shaking as she held the dessert in her hand.
That’s great, Brother Huai’an really knows that I am the one who cares about him the most!
"Hmm! Brother Huai'an, I made this myself. Can you have a taste?"
Xie Huai'an took it, and seeing her eyes full of anticipation, he put it into his mouth and then took it out again.
Put it in and take it out.
Over and over again.
Nanqing’s head was almost twisted.
Then she lost her patience.
"No, do you want to eat or not?"
Xie Huai'an naturally wouldn't eat anything she cooked. He looked at it carefully and watched her expectant expression.
He refused and said, "I never eat desserts. Sister, have you forgotten?"
Nan Qing stood there in a daze, only to see Xie Huai'an put the dessert back.
Everyone was happily eating the food she bought, not noticing her embarrassed expression at all.
Only Hatsuri saw it.
Nanqing was very upset because of the loss of face.
She walked over and said to Chu Li: "I already know your true identity. You want to marry Brother Huai'an, but I won't let you do so."
Those words instantly made Hatsuri lose her smile.
She was afraid that this matter would be exposed today.
I just didn't expect this damn woman to say it so directly.
She was a little panicked.
"What should I do with the system?"
As the system that controls the plot, it doesn't care about these things at all. It comforts itself by saying, "That's it."
Hatsuri always felt that this system always let her down at critical moments.
"Thank you, mother. Brother Huai'an, I came here today to tell you something that concerns Brother Huai'an's happiness. I will expose the true face of this woman Chu Li today. She is not Brother Huai'an's fiancée at all! Brother Huai'an's fiancée has passed away. This person is a fake!"
Faced with such accusations, Chu Li did not resist at all. She silently looked at Xie Huai'an, wanting to know who he believed.
But he said nothing.
There was no expression on his face, it was very calm.
On the contrary, Xie's mother became anxious after hearing these words. She was usually gentle and kind, but she became very angry after hearing such words: "Nanqing, I think you are a relative of Xie Fu's family, so I tolerate and give in to you in every way. I don't want his relatives to live a bad life when they are still alive. But you actually slandered Chu Litou. You knew that it was a fact that she was engaged to Huai'an. What on earth are you thinking! Don't you wish Huai'an well?"
Seeing that Xie's mother was so excited, she was panting and had difficulty breathing. Chu Li walked over and supported her. She also heard Xie's mother say, "My child, as long as I am here, I will definitely not let others splash dirty water on you in vain."
This was the first time that Chuli felt that Xie's mother valued her so much.
But I’m afraid I’ll let you down…
She really wasn't Hatsuri.
Nanqing still insisted: "Mother, wake up! This woman is really not Chuli! She is just someone with the same name! I have witnesses!"
