Chapter 11 Xu Qingyan's Appearance
"Wei Jinlian, tell me, are you here today to renege on your promise?"
"How dare your Xu Qingyan claim credit for Lu Zhiqing's achievements?"
"I never would have guessed that Xu Qingyan was this kind of person."
"Haven't you heard the saying, 'Like begets like'? And 'A rat's son knows how to dig holes'?"
"Hey, you know what, Xiaocao is quite something, look at what she just said..."
Listening to others' comments, Xu Xiaocao didn't dare to lift her head. She wanted to refute them, but her established image made her unsure how to respond.
Wei Jinlian felt ashamed for the first time, but she didn't care about losing face herself. What she couldn't stand was anyone talking about Xu Qingyan. He was her precious son, and no one could say such a thing!
So she put her hands on her hips and resumed her fierce demeanor, ready to fight again for her son.
Just then, Xu Qingyan appeared, staggering. He looked terrible, pale and swaying precariously.
Between coughs, he said, "Mom, what are you doing here? Ranran, are you feeling better?"
Upon seeing Xu Qingyan again, Ye Ran felt she would be unable to resist rushing forward to eat his flesh and drink his blood, but she didn't expect to be so calm, so calm that she herself could hardly believe it.
Looking into Xu Qingyan's eyes, which were full of concern and affection, anyone who didn't know the situation would definitely think that he cared deeply for Ye Ran and was deeply in love with her. But Ye Ran knew that it was all a lie!
Xu Qingyan is a complete egoist; he only ever loves himself and never anyone else. All of this is just a facade, a means to gain certain benefits.
So she coldly questioned, "Without your feigned kindness, do you really not know why your mother is here?"
Xu Qingyan let out a long, weak breath. "Ranran, what's wrong with you? I really don't know! I've been sleeping soundly since I got home yesterday. I just woke up and heard that my mom came to your house, so I rushed over."
Among the onlookers was an old woman named Mu Guifang, nicknamed Mu Guiying, because she was "brave and good at fighting" and stood alongside Wei Jinlian in Liuye Village.
Neither of them would yield to the other, and they were constantly arguing. In fact, Aunt Mu was slightly better because she was fertile and gave birth to six sons for the Mu family in one go, so she was particularly confident. Sometimes even Wei Jinlian did not dare to confront her directly.
She had been standing among the onlookers, watching Wei Jinlian throw a tantrum, without saying a word or agreeing with her, because she knew exactly what kind of person Wei Jinlian was and didn't believe her at all.
Sure enough, things took a dramatic turn, and Xu Qingyan has reappeared.
Although the people of Liuye Village praised Xu Qingyan highly, Aunt Mu had always disliked him. She believed that children should not be harmed by their own actions, and her grudges with Wei Jinlian never involved the children.
But one time she noticed that whenever her child played with Xu Qingyan, the child would always come back with some kind of injury, and when she asked why, it was always related to Xu Qingyan.
Xu Qingyan was just a child at the time, so no one believed him when he told them.
But from then on, Aunt Mu never let the children play with him again, and she harbored a deep-seated hatred for Xu Qingyan.
Having finally seized such a good opportunity, she naturally wanted to vent her pent-up anger of many years, so she let out a few mocking snorts.
"Qingyan, do you really not know what happened? Your mother insisted that you saved Ranran and that you should repay her for saving your life."
