Zhou's mother was furious. She thought it was a guest who had brought his mistress and was about to ask Tao Xinrou about her background when she unexpectedly saw Zhou Yuncheng.
What made her even more furious was that her son was actually protecting this woman!
The wealthy ladies already had expressions of excitement about gossip on their faces.
I never expected that Zhou Yuncheng would have such a perfect girlfriend as Jiang Tian and still cheat on her.
Zhou Yuncheng's face was already swollen, and his heart sank deeper and deeper, knowing that things would not end well today.
"Mom, listen to me first, let's talk about this when we get home..."
Zhou Yuncheng deliberately concealed his emotions, trying to calm his mother down first.
But how could Zhou's mother possibly remain calm!
She is very concerned about her image. Her son is outstanding, and her girlfriend is also exceptional. She has always been the envy of others.
But today, she and her old friends caught her son cheating. How can this be described as a scandal?
It's no exaggeration to say that Zhou's mother's world had collapsed.
She couldn't understand why her son would do such a thing.
"Explain yourself! What exactly is your relationship with this girl? Don't forget, you have a girlfriend!"
Zhou's mother's voice became increasingly shrill and piercing.
Tao Xinrou peeked out from behind Zhou Yuncheng at this moment: "Auntie, don't be angry, Mr. Zhou saved me, he's a good person..."
"Don't call me auntie!"
Zhou's mother was so angry she almost fainted.
She watched idol dramas every day and got excited every time she saw a scene where someone was caught cheating. She never expected that one day she would actually experience such a scene herself!
Forget being excited, she wished she could faint right now!
How embarrassing!
Amidst the commotion, Jiang Tian also came out.
"Aunt."
Amidst the chaos, Jiang Tian's voice suddenly brought a refreshing coolness.
Upon hearing Jiang Tian's voice, Zhou's mother quickly turned around, looking at her as if she had seen a savior.
She hurriedly went over and took Jiang Tian's hand: "Tian Tian, let me explain. Yun Cheng definitely didn't have any ulterior motives. This is all a misunderstanding."
Jiang Tian smiled politely as she said to Zhou's mother, "Auntie, I understand what you mean. Yuncheng and I have already talked it over, and we've broken up peacefully. Actually, we've never been a good match. We're more comfortable being friends than being lovers."
Zhou's mother murmured repeatedly, "...to be friends?"
"Yes, he should marry a girl he likes. If he marries me but doesn't like me, it will be a problem for me too."
Jiang Tian's words were extremely rational.
However, to other people, her words had a different meaning.
In their view, Jiang Tian only said she wanted to be friends with Zhou Yuncheng in order to save face for the Zhou family.
After all, they caught them in the act.
Zhou Yuncheng protected the little girl, and Jiang Tian gave her face by saying that they could be friends and let the matter drop, which was a way of leaving some room for everyone.
Everyone looked at Jiang Tian with admiration.
With a daughter-in-law like this, how could the family not be peaceful?
The Zhou family really lost the big picture for a small gain.
Zhou's mother looked very upset; she was on the verge of tears.
"Tian Tian, let Yun Cheng tell you, you two are about to get married, how can you suddenly become friends?"
Zhou Yuncheng glanced at Jiang Tian.
The fact that they were pretending to be a couple could not be made public; if it were exposed, both of them would become a laughing stock.
Now, Zhou Yuncheng knew that his situation was very bad.
At least Jiang Tian didn't break off relations with him. If they resolved the matter peacefully, the memories of the onlookers might fade faster.
He ignored the inexplicable reluctance in his heart and nodded: "Yes, we have already discussed it. We will be friends from now on. Just because we are not suitable for each other in terms of feelings does not mean that our friendship cannot be maintained."
"Smack!"
Zhou's mother slapped Zhou Yuncheng hard again.
"Who told you to say such a thing! Do you know how happy I was when Tian Tian started dating you? She's the daughter-in-law I've chosen, and no one can change that!"
Zhou Yuncheng glanced at Jiang Tian, then calmly said to his mother again, "Mom, I won't lie to you, I don't like Jiang Tian. Marrying her will only cause both of us to suffer."
