I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack Novel - Chapter 241
241 Frightened(2)
Yun Zhengyang then defended them. “Qianhui and Ruojing know their limits.”
“Know their limits? Look at Yuyi’s face. This is called knowing limits?!” Shen Wanxian’s attitude was forceful this time around. After all, she was the victim and she was the one who had invited the Bai Family over. By right, the Yun Family should give her this bit of respect.
Hearing this, Yun Zhengyang tensed his chin and couldn’t find words to say for the moment.
He was the head of the family, so of course he couldn’t be one-sidedly biased. He must ensure that there was fairness.
!!
Shen Wanxian was clear about this, which was why she had no fear.
This time around, she must chase Shen Qianhui out of the Yun Family.
However, at this moment, Matriarch Chu spoke up, “What is with her face? Let Jingjing say things clearly first before we discuss the punishment!”
Matriarch Chu had stayed with Shen Ruojing for a while and naturally understood that she wasn’t one to leave a handle for others to use against her. Therefore, there must be some problem behind this
When everyone heard Matriarch Chu’s words, all of them looked at Shen Ruojing.
Shen Wanxian frowned. “Miss Shen, I don’t think that you will deny that it’s your ointment that caused Yuyi’s face to become like this, right?”
Shen Ruojing sat relaxed next to Yun Wei and took a look at Wen Yuyi’s face for a while. She then raised her brows and said, “The ointment is mine.”
Only then did Shen Wanxian say, “So what’s there to ask? When your child brought the ointment over yesterday, he assured me that it’d take effect in a day and the bruises would definitely recover in three days! He is so young, but he is already scamming people!”
Shen Ruojing said slowly, “Although Chu Tianye is a money grubber, he has always marked the prices of the things he sells clearly, not displaying dishonesty. He said that it’d take effect within one day. Hasn’t it taken effect?”
Shen Wanxian and Wen Yuyi. “???”
Both of them looked at Shen Ruojing in unison, shouting in astonishment, “This is what you mean by taking effect in a day?!”
“Hmmm.” Shen Ruojing explained, “After a person receives an impact, their bruises will tend to become increasingly severe with time, and they will only start to dissipate after seven days. My ointment hastens this process. Hasn’t the circulation improved within a day when the circulation should have started to flow better and the bruises should have started to dispel after a week? Don’t worry, the swelling will go down tomorrow, and I guarantee that you’ll recover the day after tomorrow.”
Wen Yuyi. “???”
Could things be explained this way?!
But!
Today was the day Qian Nanyin was going to annul the marriage agreement with Yun Wei and also ask for her hand in marriage!!!
How was she going to meet people with this face?!
Wen Yuyi had originally thought that Shen Ruojing’s ointment would at most have components that could make one’s skin become sensitive and break out in some rashes. When that happened, she could just hide the rashes with some foundation. What she didn’t expect was that her face would become this swollen!
She shot up to her feet angrily. “Why didn’t you guys say this earlier?!”
Shen Ruojing raised her brows. “Weren’t you told? It’ll take effect within a day. What you look like now is the worst appearance you would have in the future. There’s no use blaming me. You should blame the person who beat you up.”
The moment Shen Ruojing said this, Yun Zhengyang felt puzzled. “That’s right, Yuyi, who’s the one that beat your face up like this?”
Wen Yuyi was about to say something when Chu Cichen entered in big strides.
The man exuded a coldness and the moment he entered, the invisible disposition he gave off filled up the entire living room. It made everyone turn their attention to him.
He was holding fried dough sticks and soy milk in his hand. As if not noticing other people’s gazes, he looked only at Shen Ruojing. “Have you had breakfast?”
Matriarch Chu walked over and asked, “We have eaten. Why did you come so late?”
“I was taking care of some small matters.” Chu Cichen’s words were simple and his voice was deep and pleasant. “A thief broke into our house yesterday, and I took some time today to console Xiaomeng.”
Hearing this, Madam Yun became anxious. “Is Xiaomeng alright? Did you call the police?”
“She’s fine.” Chu Cichen seemed as if he was explaining things to other people but was actually saying this for Shen Ruojing. “Muscles threw the thief out and thus didn’t call the police. Xiaomeng was only given a bit of a scare, and I’ve got Muscles to stay by her side to protect her.”
Only then did everyone heave a sigh of relief.
Thereafter, Yun Zhengyang looked back at Wen Yuyi. “Yuyi, back to what we were saying earlier, how did your face get beaten up to this state?”
Wen Yuyi. “…”
She shivered as she wrapped her arms around her shoulders.
What right did the girl from the Chu Family have to be frightened?! She was first beaten up by the Chu Family’s little girl, and then the little boy from the same family sent her ointment.
The Chu Family and her clearly had contradicting fates with each other!
As Shen Wanxian and Wen Yuyi hesitated to say who was the one that had beaten Wen Yuyi up, the matter was left forgotten just like that.
At this moment, Chu Cichen wanted to talk more with Shen Ruojing, but the sound of Madam Qian bringing Qian Nanyin along rang out from downstairs.
She stood curiously in the corridor on the second floor, listening to their conversation from afar.
The Yun Family and Qian Family had deep business collaborations with each other. The reason both families engaged in a wedding agreement was primarily to console the Qian Family. That was why Yun Zhengyang was unable to bring up the matter of annulling the marriage agreement all this while.
Right now, since Qian Nanyin was the one who wanted to annul the marriage agreement, things were a lot simpler.
Qian Nanyin had managed to convince the seniors at home just by saying that Wen Yuyi knew the Bai Family’s young master and could bring their family a lot of connections from the capital.
After that, Yun Zhengyang and Qian Nanyin’s father contacted each other directly, and the parents from both sides agreed to have a meal together outside to discuss their future cooperation.
On the other hand, Madam Qian would pay a visit to the Yun Manor and speak to Shen Wanxian to propose a marriage between Qian Nanyin and Wen Yuyi.
The annulment of the marriage agreement went through very smoothly, and the parents of Qian Nanyin and Yun Wei tore up the copy of the marriage agreement that the other party held. Madam Qian then brought up the matter of the marriage proposal to Shen Wanxian. Madam Qian looked very satisfied. “I’ve fancied Yuyi for a long time. It’s a pity that Yuyi isn’t a child of the Yun Family. Otherwise, how would we have wasted so much time for so many years?”
Shen Wanxian smiled calmly. “Three days later, Old Master Bai will be paying a visit. When the time comes, Madam Qian should bring Nanyin along.”
The moment Shen Wanxian said this, Madam Qian felt even more satisfied. She held onto Shen Wanxian’s hand and kept on saying pleasant-sounding words.
On the other hand, Qian Nanyin went upstairs. Everyone thought that he would go to look for Wen Yuyi but didn’t expect that he went up straight to Yun Wei.
“Yun Wei, I know it now. The gigolo you found the other day was meant to anger me, right? Let me tell you, I don’t care about you at all! The one I liked has always been Yuyi! I hope that after the marriage agreement is annulled, you won’t continue to pester me!”
Yun Wei. “??”
Yun Wei frowned. “Don’t worry, even if I had to pester a pig, I won’t pester you.”
“You!” Qian Nanyin was infuriated and subconsciously felt a little unwilling to see things end like this. “Stop trying to put up a strong front! If you were to get married to me, you could become Mrs. Qian. But now, if you get married to that gigolo, you’ll just become his wife and won’t even be the Yun Family’s young miss in the future! Yun Wei, you’ll regret it sooner or later!”
After leaving these words ruthlessly, he turned to leave.
Wen Yuyi, who was hiding in her room, covered her face with her hands. She wanted to complain about her grief to Qian Nanyin, saying that her face was caused by Yun Wei and Shen Ruojing.
This would make Qian Nanyin detest Yun Wei even more.
Hence, she hid near the door, already planning on letting Qian Nanyin know that Yun Wei was the one who caused her to be in this state without even bringing up Yun Wei’s name. However, what she didn’t expect was that her Bro Nanyin just left. He actually left???
How could he leave just like that?
Today was the day of their engagement!
Wen Yuyi clenched her fists tightly. She somehow understood in her heart that Qian Nanyin must have feelings for Yun Wei, but he hadn’t noticed it yet.
After that, Wen Yuyi quickly heaved a sigh of relief.
That was fine. Bro Nanyin was hers now.
And Yun Wei… could only be together with that small celebrity! With her identity in the future, she wouldn’t even be worthy of holding shoes for the Bai Family!
After the Bai Family’s members came, she was going to let Qian Nanyin see that only she, Wen Yuyi, could bring connections for the Qian Family. Yun Wei was nothing!
The next three days passed by very quickly.
Shen Wanxian was very busy preparing for the banquet.
The entire Yun Family started moving, making preparations for Old Master Bai’s visit.
Also, the swelling on Wen Yuyi’s face did reduce three days later. As for the bruises, they could just be covered up by thick makeup and people wouldn’t be able to tell.
Very soon, the day for the Bai Family’s visit came.
