At this point, Chen Yuling's tone suddenly changed, and she said somewhat dejectedly, "That's right, I misunderstood. Chu Xia's status is different now, and she doesn't need to do these chores herself anymore. Why would she be willing to cook for us again?"
What's wrong with Chen Yuling? Am I overthinking it? Why does she always seem to talk in a sarcastic or ambiguous way?
[You're not the only one who feels this way; I feel the same way. Could it be that Chen Yuling and Lin Chuxia had some past conflict?]
Regardless of whether there's any past conflict, Chen Yuling's behavior is really uncomfortable. She's clearly the one asking for a favor, yet she acts like she's doing them a favor—that's really going too far.
What does Chen mean by that? Can someone explain Lin's background? Is Chen implying that Lin looks down on people now that she's married into a wealthy family?
It's said that Lin came from a small mountain village, and no one knows how she met President Gu, but she successfully married into a wealthy family and became a rich wife. All we know is that they've registered their marriage, but nobody knows what happened before that.
[They're just getting the marriage certificate but not having a wedding banquet? Something feels off. Could it be that some shameless person used some dirty tricks to force my crush to marry her?]
...
Chen Yuling directly asked the question the audience wanted to know: "Chu Xia, I'm sorry, it's just that your marriage with President Gu was kept so secret. Actually, I was just curious about your relationship with President Gu, I didn't mean anything else. You..."
Shen Jianshu interrupted Chen Yuling in a deep voice: "What business is it of yours how a couple's relationship is? Don't you think it's very rude of you to ask such questions as an outsider?"
Chen Yuling quickly denied it, saying, "No, although I'm curious, I didn't mean to gossip. I'm just curious about Chu Xia's love life as a friend, and I want to know who pursued the other first between her and President Gu."
[It must have been Lin who pursued my crush first, otherwise, someone like him could have any outstanding girl he wanted. How could she possibly become Mrs. Gu?]
Although I find Chen's current words and actions very inappropriate, to be honest, I really want to know the answers to the questions she asked.
In fact, even without seeing the phone, Lin Chuxia guessed that there must be some unfavorable comments about her online.
She looked up at Chen Yuling, who seemed ready to fight to the death, and gently curled her lips: "You just want me to cook, right? No problem. However, I don't think you and I are close enough to talk about personal feelings. I hope Miss Chen won't speak to me like a friend, using a tone of concern and care. When you do that... it makes me afraid of the word 'friend'."
[Haha, Lin's words are so damn venomous, it's practically saying Chen did it on purpose.]
[Well said! I saw Chen's face twist for a second just now, hahaha!]
What should have been a heartwarming family drama has been turned into a power struggle within a wealthy family. How did this happen? [Confused]
Chen Yuling had interacted with Lin Chuxia before, but Lin Chuxia had always given her the impression of being a gentle and mild-mannered person. She never expected Lin Chuxia to suddenly be so confrontational.
She paused for a moment, then looked a little aggrieved: "Chuxia, you really misunderstood. I just thought you were a good cook, so I wanted you to cook for me."
