Su Wantang gave a cold laugh.
"What's your relationship with Huai'an? Do I need you all to help me make decisions?"
Are you jealous?
It has to be said that Liu Cuicui does have some tricks up her sleeve.
What Su Yue didn't know was that these tactics were the methods she used to deal with Liu Cuicui in her previous life when she had Wen Wanqing backing her up. They once drove Liu Cuicui to the brink of collapse and madness, and caused a lot of jokes, making her infamous in the family compound.
If Su Zhen hadn't fallen from power and implicated Su Yue, leading to her being demoted, Liu Cuicui would have been tormented for who knows how long.
A smug glint flashed in Su Yue's eyes, but the next second, upon hearing Lu Huai'an's words, her expression froze.
"Wantang, I have absolutely no relation to Comrade Su Yue. You're in charge of our family!"
She looked at Lu Huai'an with a pained and reproachful expression, and said with an even more pitiful look, "Wantang, what relationship could I possibly have with Comrade Lu? Are you still misunderstanding me? Last time, Huai'an only hugged me in a moment of panic. There's nothing wrong between us."
"What?"
Wen Wanqing's sharp eyes fell on Lu Huai'an.
It's one thing for her to dislike Su Wantang, but for her son to be involved with another woman while still married, especially a morally corrupt and unethical doctor like him...
Wen Wanqing's face turned green with anger.
"Are you done talking?"
Su Wantang had her own judgment regarding the situation and was not led by the nose by Su Yue. She did not fly into a rage as Su Yue had imagined, but simply said calmly.
"Then please get out of my house, Comrade Su Yue. You are not welcome here."
Caught off guard by Su Wantang, Su Yue looked at Lu Huai'an.
"Comrade Lu—"
Before she could finish her attempt to stir things up, Lu Huai'an waved his hand in a gesture of invitation, which chilled her to the bone.
"Comrade Su Yue, please leave."
Su Yue pursed her lips and said with an awkward smile, "Well... Comrade Lu, I'll head back now."
"If you need my help in the future, just let me know. After all, this whole thing started because of this."
"unnecessary."
"If possible, I hope that Comrade Su Yue will never appear in front of me again."
Su Yue left with a pale face.
She had just pushed her bicycle out of the courtyard when Lu Huai'an closed the door, causing Su Yue to sway uncontrollably.
Is she really that bad?
Why was Lu Huai'an so disgusted with him?
Su Yue also had a temper. She snorted coldly, got on her bicycle, and rode away.
Once the door was closed and no one else was around, Wen Wanqing grabbed a broom from the yard and started hitting Lu Huai'an with it.
"Lu Huai'an!"
"Is this how I've taught you all these years?"
"And are you blind? That three-faced woman isn't as good-looking as Su Wantang, nor is she as capable. What do you see in her? That crying, pretentious act?"
Lu Huai'an frowned, dodging as he spoke.
"Mom! Calm down! It's not what you think!"
"What do you mean? You keep mentioning Huai'an, you've even clung to her, and now you're coming to my door... You're telling me it's nothing? Who are you trying to fool?! Today, I'm going to teach you a lesson you won't forget!"
"mom!"
"Calling for Mom won't help! Don't give me that crap! If you're not the problem, why doesn't she go to someone else? Why is she only sticking with you?"
......
Seeing Lu Huai'an, who had lost his usual composure and was being chased and beaten by Wen Wanqing, Su Wantang couldn't help but chuckle.
Hearing the laughter, Lu Huai'an looked up and glanced over, a helpless yet doting look flashing in his eyes.
"Auntie, please stop hitting her."
She's quite the smooth talker, but why is she so spineless and silent when she runs into this rascal?
"Su Wantang, where's your spoiled, capitalist-lady-like temper? You can tolerate all this?"
Lu Huai'an said unhappily, "Mom, Wan Tang is different."
Wen Wanqing's words were still blunt, but they weren't meant to target her; they were more like the disappointment and frustration of an elder.
The capitalist's pampered daughter, in her words, seemed to be discussing the matter objectively, without any unnecessary contempt.
In her previous life, after Huo Jun was promoted, he also brought his mother and sister to live with him. At first, Su Wantang only felt that the relationship between Huo Jun and Huo Yan, the brother and sister, was a little close, and did not think much of it.
It wasn't until she stumbled upon the two having an affair that she was shocked to learn that Huo Yan was Huo Jun's childhood sweetheart. She also heard shocking remarks from Huo Xiaoyan, who implied that Huo Yan couldn't win a man's heart.
But in Wen Wanqing's case, the blame wasn't placed on her daughter-in-law, but on her own son.
At this moment, Su Wantang felt a touch of respect for her mother-in-law, Wen Wanqing.
She walked over and tried to take the broom from Wen Wanqing's hand.
"Auntie, let's go inside and talk."
"Need not!"
Wen Wanqing is straightforward; she likes whoever she likes and dislikes whoever she dislikes. Su Wantang's recent behavior has disappointed her, so naturally she doesn't want to accept her attempts to get close.
She dodged with a broom, but the bamboo leaves at the end accidentally scratched Su Wantang.
Su Wantang exclaimed in surprise and stopped.
"Mom!" Lu Huai'an roared.
Wen Wanqing, who was about to apologize, became even more furious upon hearing Lu Huai'an's roar.
"Lu Huai'an! What kind of look is that?"
"Mom! Wan Tang is my wife! If you have any anger, take it out on me! How could you hit Wan Tang?!"
Now even Su Wantang began to suspect that Lu Huai'an had a problem with his eyes.
"Huai'an, Mom didn't hit me, it was an accident."
Lu Huai'an knew it was an accident, but he could guess Wen Wanqing's intentions.
So he continued, "Wantang, I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake?"
"Wantang, don't be afraid. No one can separate us, not even my mother."
