Tong Huaimu's humiliated expression and gnashing teeth tone made Jian Yan notice something was wrong.

It didn't seem like he was setting a trap to frame her, but rather he was forced into a helpless and unwilling compromise.

The only person who could make him compromise was his father.

as predicted.

Just as she was thinking this in her heart, the man in the brown suit and vest came down from upstairs. The sound of his footsteps attracted her to look up.

The other party also looked over, with a gentle expression, and nodded politely to her, and his voice was also as gentle as a spring breeze: "Are you back?"

She smiled back, "Yeah."

"Xiao Mu said something he shouldn't have said yesterday. I've already scolded him on your behalf and asked him to apologize to you."

After hearing this, Jian Yan felt a little depressed.

Tong Ruixiao's news came out so quickly! He brought up what happened last night today. I'm afraid that all the servants and maids in this house are his spies.

They're all staring at her.

There are also surveillance cameras in the corners, all of which are turned on.

This time, Tong Ruixiao forced Tong Huaimu to admit his mistake to her, and asked her questions with deep meaning.

On the one hand, the boy's scolding yesterday was too harsh, and it embarrassed her in the mansion, so she was afraid that the marriage would be ruined.

On the other hand, and the main one, was to warn her, to let her know that this villa was full of his people, and if she dared to have any bad intentions, he would know at any time.

Anyone who has a little wealth at home has to be on guard against a wife after he gets married, for fear that she might cause some trouble. It is better to be on guard against people than against wolves.

"He was young and naive, so he spoke bluntly, but I didn't take it seriously."

Jian Yan shook her head and smiled gently, as if she didn't take it to heart at all.

"Besides, I shouldn't have touched the things in the house. Those things belong to him, so you can't blame him for being angry."

After saying something to defend Tong Huaimu, he also said something superficial, “But since Xiaomu apologized sincerely, I will accept it. We are all family, there is no overnight conflict.”

The man also said: "Since you said we are a family, then the things in this family are not divided into individuals. We are all family members, and we can buy whatever we want."

This statement was a statement of attitude towards her.

As a father, he is impartial and treats family matters fairly. It is impossible for him to deliberately make things difficult for her.

"In that case, I will add something more popular based on my respect for Xiao Mu. The villa is very big, and it usually looks empty. I always feel a little lonely when I'm alone."

She always had a smile on her face, and her words were neither humble nor arrogant, as if she was just saying this simply without a trace of dissatisfaction.

But it made Tong Huaimu secretly resentful.

What a provocation!

She asked him to apologize, but she actually took his father's polite words seriously! If this family really changes according to her ideas in the future, what role does he have?

Tong Ruixiao looked around, retracted his gaze, and nodded, "It's a bit deserted, it would be nice to have some new decorations."

"I just don't know if Xiao Mu would agree..."

Jian Yan seemed to be hesitant to speak, and acted very cautiously.

She looked at the young man and asked with some uncertainty on her face, but in fact she was already very sure in her heart. She was just pretending to do it for Tong Ruixiao to use him to empower herself.

Only Tong Ruixiao can control this rebellious child.

The boy had no choice but to obey under pressure from his father.

But his eyes, half covered by his hair, were fixed on her, and he said in an angry voice, "I agree! How could I not agree?"

The tone was almost as if he wanted to eat someone alive.

Tong Ruixiao felt uncomfortable listening to this, frowned and glanced at him.

The young man lowered his head in hatred because of the intimidation, and was forced to put away his ferocious look and fangs like a vicious beast.

Tong Ruixiao felt sorry for this and said to Jian Yan: "He is really naughty."

"It's okay. I know Xiao Mu is bothered by my existence. After all, I just came into this family. It's normal for him to not accept it. As parents, we should be more tolerant of our children."

She said polite words.

She was thinking about how to get Tong Ruixiao to speak up and let her restrain Tong Huaimu, but she caught a glimpse of the boy's angry expression because of her words.

Tong Huaimu did not recognize her as a stepmother, but she called herself a parent. What she said was like adding fuel to the fire.

In order to pave the way for the next plan, let him hate herself for the time being. Anyway, his impression of her is bad enough, so he doesn't lack this little bit of disgust.

The man hesitated for a moment, "Blind tolerance may not be effective. I need you to control him more in the future."

Jian Yan was stunned for a moment before nodding and saying yes.

Before she even said anything, he gave her the power to discipline the boy. This process was much easier than she had imagined.

But she didn't feel that the other party trusted her and was willing to let her take care of this naughty child.

Instead, I felt it was a blatant temptation.

Tong Ruixiao turned around and told the boy, "Tong Huaimu, what happened yesterday must not happen again. I don't ask much of you, as long as you behave yourself."

"If after I've told you this you continue to be disrespectful and say those nasty things, you know what I'm going to do..."

The magnetic voice fades away, and the content that follows is self-explanatory.

"I see."

Tong Huaimu lowered his head and answered in a pretended obedient manner.

His disgust for Jane Yan had reached its peak, and he wished he never had to see her again in his life.

He was violent by nature and hated women like Jian Yan who played tricks the most. He was able to hold back his anger and not get angry only because he was afraid of disappointing his father.

If she weren't her father, who would she be?

She is just a nominal stepmother, and she still wants him to obey her? You wish!

……

For a period of time afterwards, Tong Ruixiao was on business trips.

There were only Tong Huaimu and Jian Yan in the villa.

Jian Yan would prepare some delicious meals and wait for him to eat them after school in the evening, trying to figure out the time he might come back, and she guessed correctly many times.

Although he didn't eat it either, she still completed what she was supposed to do in her mission.

Most of the time, she couldn't wait because he deliberately avoided her.

Aunt Wang looked at the woman who sat at the dinner table waiting like this every day, and there was a look of distress on her face.

The wife has been like this for more than a month, cooking all kinds of delicious food every day to please the young master. Even a stone would be warmed up by it. The young master is really hard-hearted.

She walked over and sighed, "Madam, it's already twelve o'clock. The young master may be staying at a friend's house tonight. Don't wait any longer."

The woman looked up at the quartz clock on the living room wall and saw that the pointer had passed the twelve o'clock line.

She cast her eyes on the food on the table again, sighed softly, and felt a little lost.

Then, she forced herself to cheer up and said to Wang Ma with a smile, "Since Xiao Mu is not coming back, we can't waste these meals. Wang Ma, go call the other servants over and we can share the food."

After a while, the seven maids on night shift came into the living room and stood in a row neatly.
