Chapter 6

Xu Yanwen gritted her teeth, rubbed her earlobe secretly, quietly held the earring in her hand, and then pretended to look for it, bending down and turning her gaze to Guo Cheng and his neighbor Tang Wan.

Tang Wan's instep rubbed slowly along Guo Cheng's suit trouser legs, while Guo Cheng intentionally or unintentionally moved his thigh towards her, responding to her teasing, and the two of them flirted with each other.

Xu Yanwen closed her eyes in pain.

Who would have thought that these two people who had been just nodding acquaintances for three years would have reached such an extent in private? This is a family dinner!

He can be so reckless in public, what about other times? !

She suddenly thought of how Guo Cheng had been working overtime all night and going on business trips for more than 20 days every month over the past year, all under the pretext of working harder after his promotion.

Is this all because of...

Xu Yanwen didn't dare to pursue it any further. She felt as if someone had pierced a hole in her heart. Cold wind kept blowing in, freezing her whole body.

Realizing the vacancy in the seat next to him, Guo Cheng suddenly came to his senses, quickly retracted his leg that had crossed the boundary, looked at his wife beside him who was bending over, and hurriedly leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xu Yanwen quickly adjusted her mood, picked up the earrings, spread her palms and said, "I'm looking for earrings."

"I'll put it on for you."

Guo Cheng reached out to take it, but she cleverly avoided him, "No, this earring is not easy to wear, it's just right that it fell off."

Guo Cheng said lovingly, "Then I'll go with you to buy a new one tomorrow, okay?"

"Yeah." Xu Yanwen smiled, but endless bitterness spread in her mouth.

While Xu Yinyin was absorbed in eating, the system continued to read gossip, waiting for its master to finish eating and drinking before continuing with the previous topic.

At the same time, it did not forget to observe the situation on the scene. When it saw Xu Yanwen stand up from under the table, its little face turned visibly paler and it was suddenly startled.

[Oh no, I’m afraid my aunt saw your aunt and uncle flirting under the table]

[Ah?! Flirting? Who is flirting with whom?!]

The news was so explosive that Xu Yinyin abruptly pulled herself away from the food, eyes filled with shock.

[You left to eat when I was halfway through my talk. This young aunt is having an affair with my second aunt.]

"Pfft! Cough cough cough--" Xu Yanwen was not good at hiding his emotions, and he choked when he heard this.

Xu Yinyin hurriedly handed her father a tissue, "Dad, go slower."

Jiang Xin was actually also scared, but she knew that she must not reveal the truth and arouse suspicion from her precious daughter, otherwise she would not be able to enjoy the shocking news in the future.

She quickly said in a scolding tone: "Oh, it seems that your pneumonia has become more serious. You cough every now and then. Let's go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow. If you are sick, you can get treatment. If you are not sick, you can take care of yourself."

"Yeah, okay. Sorry everyone, I am rude."

The old man said calmly: "It's okay, remember to go to the hospital tomorrow and have a full body check-up."

"Yes, Father."

Xu Yanrui's face turned pale, and he was forced to say with concern: "I have a doctor I know well. When you go, let me know and I will have him see you."

"Hey, hey, okay, thank you for your hard work, second brother."

Xu Yanwen said that it was hard work, but his expression when he looked at his second brother was full of sympathy, as if to say, thank you my cuckold brother hey :)

Xu Yanrui wanted to pull Xu Yinyin's head off more than once. Why is she so active? So much food can't fill her mouth. Eat more melons, or I'll strangle you to death!

He cursed in his heart, but he still didn't lose his conscience. He passed the sweet and sour pork in front of him to Xu Yanwen and said softly, "Wenwen, this is your favorite."

Looking at her second brother who couldn't control his wife, Xu Yanwen couldn't pretend to be in harmony with him as if nothing had happened.

She lowered her eyes to glance at the dish and said calmly, "I don't like it now."

“······”

Well, this is out of jealousy towards him, but it was also the first time he knew that Tang Wan had actually played tricks on one of her own people!

Xu Yanrui glared at Tang Wan fiercely, but the latter curled her lips indifferently and continued to eat as if she was blind.

No one wanted to be exposed to such a family scandal. Tang Wan knew that the wealthy people valued respectability above all else, so she dared to seduce Guo Cheng unscrupulously.

Besides, Guo Cheng is no pushover either. After all, one hand cannot clap.

The only thing to blame is Xu Yanwen's incompetence, as she tolerated Guo Cheng's cheating again and again.

Although the old man felt sorry for his daughter's experience, he was powerless to do anything. Just as Yin Yin said, once Guo Cheng's true face was revealed and Awen had completely given up, everything would be solved.

All he had to do was to wait patiently for his daughter to emerge as a butterfly. He didn't believe that his daughter was so stupid that she wouldn't notice anything.

Xu Yanwen was not stupid. She had become suspicious of Guo Cheng's alienation as early as the second year of their marriage.

To this end, she hired a private detective at a high price. She knew everything he did outside, but she chose to block him automatically and only regarded his occasional cheating as a way to vent her excessive pressure.

She knew that she was particularly conservative in some aspects and could not give him a perfect experience, so she tolerated his cheating.

In her opinion, as he was in a high position, he was bound to have many social engagements against his will. In this extravagant environment, it was normal for him to act out of line once or twice.

There is no man who doesn't cheat, as long as he comes home.

But as the number of photos sent by the private detective increased from once a month to once a week recently, she began to avoid them and didn't even want to open them to look at them, because she knew they were not what she wanted to see.

There were already a lot of complaints about his misconduct at home, but she was waiting for him to get tired of playing and focus.

I even want to have a baby as soon as possible, hoping that new life will bring new vitality to my lifeless home.

But things did not go as planned. They had been trying to get pregnant for years, but to no avail.

She kept looking for various methods, saw many doctors at home and abroad, and took traditional Chinese medicine. There was nothing wrong with her body, but she just couldn't get pregnant. The doctor said it was caused by stress and asked her to relax.

But she will be thirty soon. The older she gets, the lower the chance of getting pregnant and the poorer her physical conditions for bearing a child. How can she not be anxious?

After this little episode, Xu Yinyin continued to eat melons.

[It's okay, keep going]

[Just now when you were eating, your second aunt and your younger aunt were flirting under the table. As luck would have it, your younger aunt had her earring fall off and bent over to pick it up.]

Xu Yinyin suddenly held her breath, and said nervously and anxiously: [What then? Did my aunt see it? ]

[I don’t have a God’s perspective, so I can’t see things outside my sight. But judging from the fact that my aunt picked up the earring and smiled at my uncle-in-law, I guess she didn’t see it.]

[Ah~] Xu Yinyin sighed with regret, [They didn’t even catch him. Should we say they are lucky, or is it that God is blind? My little aunt is so good, why did she have to meet a scumbag? How disgusting!]

[You also said that my sister-in-law is a love-brained person. Even if she catches him, what can she do? Will she be willing to blame the scumbag? ]

[That's right. Generally, the love brain will automatically block out the shortcomings of the object, thicken various filters to beautify the quality, and focus on being blind. ]

[But, he has flirted with her right under his nose, and the rabbit will not eat the grass near the nest. The second aunt is old and ugly, and is far inferior to the young aunt. How can he still eat this? ]

Tang Wan, who was suddenly humiliated: “..."You stupid girl, are you polite?

[So what? Haven't you heard that a man won't flirt with women unless he becomes a picture hanging on the wall? Otherwise, he will not distinguish between beautiful and ugly women, and will just seduce them as an achievement. Of course, I'm referring to the scumbag and your second uncle here. Your rich father and gentle grandfather are quite nice and virtuous men. They are both role models of being faithful to one person once they have decided on one.]

Xu Yan, who was suddenly praised, straightened his back slowly with pride in his eyes.

[Ah, my little aunt is too well-educated. If it were me, I would give him a big slap on the spot and tell him why the flowers are so red! Or I would confiscate his tools and turn him into a butler in an instant. ]

Guo Cheng subconsciously clamped his legs together and glared at Xu Yinyin secretly.

The old man cleared his throat and said loudly: "I have something to announce."

Everyone immediately looked at him, but he said, "I plan to let Yinyin join the company for training. For the time being, she can go to Fengyi to learn from Tang Wan."

Xu Yinyin's hand shook, and the quail egg held by her chopsticks fell onto the plate, bouncing up and down playfully on the plate.

[Help me, I really just want to be a waste. You are so rich, are you so unwilling to support me as a free man? ]

[Hey, rich people are the best at calculating, so be careful! ]

After saying this, the system immediately ran away.

Xu Yinyin: “······” You ungrateful guy!

The rest of the people were all frightened by this decision and didn't care to listen to Xu Yinyin's thoughts.

"Ah?" Tang Wan exclaimed in surprise. He went to the headquarters right after arriving and wanted to follow her. Was he trying to replace her? !

Xu Yanrui said hurriedly: "Father, Yinyin just came home and hasn't adjusted to the family yet. Isn't it too fast for you to let her go to the company?"

Xu Yanwen also said: "Yes, Yinyin has just been brought back, so she doesn't need to be involved in the family business too early. Let her adapt to the family first, and there is still time for her to go to the company next. Don't we still have Yaoyao?"

Xu Yanwen saw what the old man was thinking. He wanted to put his precious daughter into the vortex of struggle, let her use her voice to stir up the water, and make people with bad intentions lose their composure. The old man would reap the benefits directly.

The old man is relieved of the trouble, but his Yin Yin is in danger!

Not to mention the group of ruthless veterans in the company, it’s also difficult to deal with the second wife and the three aunts in front of me.

His Yin Yin just wants to live a life of idleness and wait for death. As a father, he must resolutely implement such a small wish and not let her down.

"Sis has just arrived and needs to adapt to various aspects. How about I explain the company to her at home first, and after she has a general understanding, she can go to the company to train with Auntie. Is that ok, Grandpa?"

Xu Yao has been working in the company for more than a year and is well aware of the intrigues within the family business and various factions. Her sister is simple-minded, and her unique voice is both a shield and a weapon. Grandpa is trying to put her on the spot.

But judging from his attitude and care towards my sister just now, he doesn't seem to dislike her. What on earth is grandpa trying to do?

The old man knew that by doing this, Yin Yin would become a public enemy, but he really had no other choice but to use his inner voice to disrupt the existing layout.

Moreover, Yinyin is not alone. The system she is talking to seems to be very powerful, as if it holds a lot of explosive information. Anyone who appears cannot escape its surveillance.

Although it may seem dangerous to let her go to the company, it is actually what she wants.

He heard his granddaughter's thoughts and knew that she didn't want to go to work, so he deliberately assigned the person to Tang Wan. According to her thoughts, it was impossible to assign her important work. Yin Yin going to the company was just changing a place to spend her time and do nothing.

Moreover, when a scandal is exposed, the parties involved will most likely pretend not to know. In the adult world, decency is the most important thing. Even if they know that someone has heard it, they cannot confront or argue frankly because they know that this is the fact.

Those who were exposed either kept a low profile or could not stand the advice from those around them and withdrew from the group. In the end, those who stayed were the frank and honest people.

It’s great that his granddaughter can help him clean up the garbage in the company without any effort.

Just like the second brother's family and the cunning aunt, no matter how they schemed and plotted, weren't they completely subdued by the voice of their obedient granddaughter?

The old man ignored everyone's objections and made the decision directly: "This is a notification, not a discussion."

After saying this, the old man took Xu Yinyin's hand and left.

Leaving everyone to flutter in the wind.
