Su Manwen felt such pain in her heart that she could barely sit up.
"Yuheng, my chopsticks are clean."
She used the chopsticks; saying that the things she picked up were dirty is just saying that her mouth was dirty.
Does he really despise her that much?
Why would you embarrass a woman in front of so many people just for her sake?
Su Manwen could not accept this fact at all.
However, Gu Yuheng ignored her, took the bowl that Aunt Qian brought back, and served Lin Chuxia a small half bowl of rice again.
"Yuheng, I...I'm sorry, I just wanted to serve Chuxia some food, I thought she wouldn't mind...I was just trying to be kind..."
Su Manwen explained herself, her face somewhat pale.
She thought she had been discreet in her actions.
Even if Lin Chuxia didn't eat that piece of fatty meat and threw it away, it wouldn't be her fault. The Gu family elders' dissatisfaction would only be directed at Lin Chuxia.
However, she overlooked Gu Yuheng.
She never expected Gu Yuheng to defend Lin Chuxia so much. However, he made such a big deal out of such a trivial matter and slapped her in the face so hard.
What Su Manwen didn't know was that almost everyone present could see through her actions.
She originally didn't want to leave a bad impression on the Gu family elders, so she gave the piece of meat to Lin Chuxia. However, she didn't know that her actions had just made the Gu family elders' impression of her even worse.
With such obvious movements, how could the two elderly people not see that she was giving away food she didn't like because she had picked it up herself?
Even if you genuinely mean to serve someone food, are you sure it's really out of kindness to pick up a big piece of fatty meat?
Madam Gu immediately stopped smiling.
She used to think Manwen was quite sensible, but now... is this the socialite that the Su family painstakingly cultivated and nurtured at great expense?
She had just felt that it was inappropriate to have an outsider present while her family was eating, and look at the state of the meal now.
Fortunately, Yuheng was quite sharp today and didn't let Chuxia suffer any injustice.
However, Gu Yuheng's performance today really exceeded Madam Gu's expectations.
Before this, she would complain to her husband every day about Gu Yuheng's low emotional intelligence, saying that he was stupid as a pig and couldn't even coax his own wife.
However, today, I was repeatedly subjected to the public displays of affection between my youngest son and daughter-in-law.
The prawns on the table suited Lin Chuxia's taste, so after she finished eating, she picked up a few more and put them on Gu Yuheng's plate.
Gu Yuheng, who was eating, put down his chopsticks and started peeling shrimp for her again. He then placed the peeled shrimp directly on the plate in front of Lin Chuxia.
The man's beautiful eyes held only boundless tenderness and doting affection, without a trace of impatience.
Seeing this scene, Su Manwen felt even more heartbroken.
She spoke with difficulty: "Chu Xia, I thought you were going to serve Yu Heng some food. I didn't expect you just wanted him to peel shrimp for you."
Su Manwen now harbors a great deal of resentment towards Lin Chuxia.
Why is this woman so dramatic?
She clearly has hands, but she insists on having Yuheng peel the shrimp for her. From the moment she arrived until now, Yuheng has been peeling shrimp for her almost the entire time, and he hasn't even had a few bites of food yet.
This woman is so selfish, doesn't Aunt Gu care?
Doesn't she care about her son? Does she just stand by and watch him be enslaved and manipulated by a woman like this?
