Quick Wear: Reversing Life

The next morning, Liu Xinyan was woken up by Cheng Yu.

She was half asleep and found herself lying on the bed in their bedroom.

"Someone will come to pay New Year's greetings soon, hurry up and have breakfast."

Although the Cheng family is wealthy and powerful, they do not have many relatives, but there are more side branches and some relatives and friends who come to pay New Year's greetings.

As the wife of the head of the Cheng family, Liu Xinyan really had to get up early to receive guests.

This is also the rule established since the time of Madam Cheng Zeng.

She came from a wealthy family and believed that there was no order without rules. It was only because she married an educated daughter-in-law like Gao Shujun that she was able to avoid the daily routine of morning and evening visits.

The living room has been decorated with a strong festive atmosphere, which does not affect the luxurious Chinese style of the old house at all.

Mrs. Cheng Zeng was still wearing an exquisite and elegant gown, with silver hair tied behind her head and emerald green jade hanging from her ears, looking noble and majestic.

She had always disliked Liu Xinyan. After seeing her come downstairs, she said indifferently, "The rules are too lax. You actually need Ayu to wake you up."

Liu Xinyan was too lazy to care about this old lady, but she thought it would be better not to bother with her on the first day of the new year.

She smiled and said, "That's what the old lady said."

After saying that, he went to the restaurant without caring about anything.

Gao Shujun was also sitting in the restaurant eating, and she was helping Cheng Hao spread jam on his toast.

Cheng Hao was playing with his phone. Liu Xinyan frowned and said coldly, "Cheng Hao!"

Cheng Hao's hands trembled when he was called, and he quickly put away his phone. He took the toast from Gao Shujun with a smile: "Thank you, grandma."

"You're welcome." Gao Shujun looked up at Liu Xinyan. She was wearing the cheongsam that Gao Shujun had prepared for her before. It had a crimson purple background embroidered with dark-colored flowers. In fact, the overall pattern was a bit old-fashioned, but Liu Xinyan had fair skin and wore gold jewelry, which made her look particularly beautiful.

This cheongsam was given to me by Gao Shujun a few years ago. I didn't expect that she would take it out and wear it now.

Liu Xinyan didn't have any idea of ​​wearing new clothes during the New Year. It was just that when the servant was cleaning the cloakroom yesterday, she found this skirt and thought it looked nice, so she put it on.

Because the skirt was too revealing, with a thin waist, big breasts, and a rounded butt, it looked pretty but also looked immodest. The original owner would never wear such a dress, so this was her first time wearing it.

The overall color of the dress is dark, so she deliberately chose bright gold jewelry as an embellishment.

The women in the Cheng family don't like to wear gold jewelry and prefer jade, so Liu Xinyan's outfit is really eye-catching.

Although Gao Shujun usually dressed in simple and elegant clothes, she also appreciated such bright colors, so she said, "You look great in cheongsams. I have a lot of styles that I haven't worn yet. If you like them, you can pick a few and take them back."

Gao Shujun has an old friend who specializes in making cheongsams, and he gives her a few every year.

Liu Xinyan smiled and did not refuse.

Cheng Baohua, who was in the restaurant with her, frowned when she saw her dressed like this, as if she felt that her outfit was not suitable for the identity of the wife of the Cheng family, but Gao Shujun was too embarrassed to say anything in front of her.

However, Ruiji liked this style very much and kept praising her beauty in difficult Chinese.

Gao Shujun smiled and said, "If Ray likes them, he can go to his aunt's and pick out a few."

Rachel nodded happily.

At this time, Cheng Yu passed by the balcony with a cup of coffee and noticed her figure, especially the way she sat down to eat, with her straight back and slender waist, which showed off her beautiful curves as a woman.

He couldn't help but take a few more glances.

-

The custom here on the first day of the Lunar New Year is that men go out to pay New Year's greetings while women stay at home to receive guests.

When Cheng Yu reached his position, he basically just sat at home waiting for others to come and wish him a happy new year.

There are quite a lot of younger generations from the Cheng family's side branches, both men and women coming in an endless stream.

Liu Xinyan couldn't remember many of the names, she just sat next to Cheng Yu and smiled occasionally.

Cheng Hao sat on the other side of Liu Xinyan. In the past, Mrs. Cheng Zeng doted on him, so it was okay for him to play games in front of everyone. But now, under his mother's nose, he had to sit on the side and drink tea and eat snacks.

After one wave of guests leaves, another wave comes.

The people who came this time were relatives from Mrs. Cheng Zeng’s family, most of whom were younger elders.

There were a few unfamiliar but well-behaved children who followed their elders and greeted them obediently. There was a girl named Liu Xinyan who I had some impression of.

She is the granddaughter of Mrs. Cheng Zeng's sister. He doted on her when he had her in his old age, and the girl he raised had the temper of a noisy young lady.

The reason why I have an impression of her is that although this girl is of the same generation as Cheng Yu, she is only two years older than Cheng Hao. Every year when she comes to the Cheng family to pay New Year's greetings, she orders the Cheng family's servants around and has no etiquette at all.

Moreover, this girl was very good at judging people's behavior. Knowing that Mrs. Cheng Zeng did not like her as her granddaughter-in-law, she also did not respect the original owner's cousin-in-law and secretly made things difficult for her.

...

"Huanhuan is here. She has become much prettier after not seeing you for a year." Mrs. Cheng Zeng also particularly liked this granddaughter from her mother's side. Because she and Mrs. Cheng Zeng looked a bit similar, many people said that they looked like their own grandchildren.

As soon as Xu Huanxin entered the room, she took off her coat and threw it to the servant beside her. She tiptoed to the side of Madam Cheng Zeng and said coquettishly, "Aunt, I haven't seen you for a year, and you are still so energetic."

"Aunt, aunt, and cousin, happy new year and all the best!" Xu Huanxin greeted them one by one with a smile. When her eyes swept over Liu Xinyan, she was stunned for a moment by her aristocratic temperament. Then she saw Cheng Yu and Cheng Hao beside her, and then she smiled. "Happy new year, cousin's wife is very different from before. I didn't recognize her at first."

Liu Xinyan smiled faintly and did not respond.

To match her outfit, she applied a rich lipstick, which made her look a little cold when she wasn't smiling.

"Happy New Year!"

Gao Shujun smiled and gave a red envelope for the New Year, and the servant next to Mrs. Cheng Zeng also took out one and gave it to Xu Huanxin.

Xu Huanxin took them one by one with a sweet smile.

Although Liu Xinyan didn't like her coquettish and silly look, she didn't hesitate to give her the red envelope.

"Huanxin will take the college entrance examination soon, right?" Gao Shujun asked.

Xu Huanxin: "Well... after taking the IELTS, I'm going to go abroad."

Her grades are average, but her family is rich and plans to send her abroad to gain experience.

Liu Xinyan was not interested in this topic, so she sat aside and peeled pine nuts with little interest.

Cheng Yu was sitting at the edge, brewing tea. The room was filled with the aroma of tea. He first poured two cups for Mrs. Cheng Zeng and Gao Shujun, then poured a cup and placed it next to her.

Then he poured a glass for Xu Huanxin.

Xu Huanxin took it quickly, but perhaps because it was too hot and she didn't hold it firmly or because she was tripped by the children eating cakes nearby, the teacup in her hand fell to the ground.

There was a thick carpet on the floor, and the cup made a muffled sound when it fell.

Liu Xinyan was closest to her, and her leg was splashed with water under her slit cheongsam.

"Ah, hiss——"

The tea was boiling hot and steaming, and it almost burned Liu Xinyan to the point of making her teeth grit her teeth.

"what happened?"

Cheng Yu quickly pulled aside her skirt and saw that her beautiful white calves were red.

Xu Huanxin was also not expecting this. She rolled her eyes, looked around, and then stammered, "I'm sorry, cousin, I didn't mean it..."

"Ah—is Mom okay?"

Cheng Hao was also splashed with a few drops, but he was wearing long pants and didn't feel it.

He quickly got up and went to the kitchen to get an ice towel.

Gao Shujun, who was sitting opposite the others, also quickly stood up. When he saw the burns, his brows furrowed.

Cheng Baohua was right next to Mrs. Cheng Zeng. She was startled by the noise and quickly pulled over Reggie, who was watching TV.

"Go and rinse with cold water." said Gao Shujun.

Madam Cheng Zeng was also startled. Although she disliked Liu Xinyan, she had never expected something like this to happen. She immediately said, "Huanxin, quickly help your cousin-in-law to the bathroom and rinse with cold water and apply a cool compress."

After hearing this, Xu Huanxin hurried forward to help Liu Xinyan up, but Cheng Yu slapped her away and picked up Liu Xinyan by the waist.

Liu Xinyan subconsciously put her arms around Cheng Yu's neck. She didn't care about her impoliteness and secretly regretted that she was not prepared for the moment.

But this also gave her an opportunity to make use of the issue.

This will prevent this little girl from being ignorant of her own limitations and always trying to bully others in the Cheng family.

Cheng Yu carried her to the bathroom and rinsed her wound with cold water to cool her down.

"Don't wear this kind of skirt next time." He held Liu Xinyan's calf with no expression on his face.

Liu Xinyan didn't like what she heard: "What does this have to do with me wearing this kind of clothes? Is this my problem?"

Cheng Yu was at a loss for words, so he sighed softly, "Then be careful next time you wear a cheongsam."

Liu Xinyan is annoyed when she sees him now, but it’s not his fault in the final analysis.

If Cheng Yu hadn't cared less about the original owner, how could she have been bullied like this by an outsider relative?

And she suffered so much for nothing.

Liu Xinyan rolled her eyes at him implicitly.

...

After carrying her back to the bedroom, Cheng Hao also brought in an ice towel.

The burned area was now red and swollen. Cheng Hao frowned when he saw it. He was always outspoken and said, "How could she be so careless that she couldn't even hold the teacup steadily?"

Gao Shujun also came in with a medicine box and took out a tube of burn ointment from it.

Cheng Yu took the burn ointment and carefully applied it to her with a cotton swab.

The burn area was quite large, and Liu Xinyan was worried that it would leave scars, so she hurriedly called the system and asked it to use unconventional means to deal with it.

At this time, Xu Huanxin also walked in. After seeing the people in the room, she stepped forward and whispered, "Is my cousin feeling better? I'm sorry I didn't hold it firmly..."

Liu Xinyan smiled slightly: "Next time, catch it with both hands, so as not to burn yourself again."

Xu Huanxin: ...

Cheng Yu glanced at Xu Huanxin lightly, then lowered his eyes and continued to apply medicine on his hands.

Gao Shujun wasn't stupid either, but she couldn't possibly say anything to this junior.

Cheng Hao, the naive and innocent man in the room, was the only one who couldn't help but say, "Cousin, you're not right. When an elder offers you tea, you should take it with both hands."

Xu Huanxin has always been able to get whatever she wants, but now that she is being taught this by a junior, she suddenly feels embarrassed and feels aggrieved.

The elder who had brought Xu Huanxin along was not happy to see her being wronged, so he complained, "Huanxin didn't do it on purpose. Besides, Madam's legs weren't broken and there was no bleeding. In fact, Madam shouldn't have worn clothes that exposed her legs. Even if it wasn't tea, it would have been something else—"

"There's no broken skin and no bleeding?" Cheng Yu interrupted the other person, his face gloomy and ugly.

Everyone was stunned. After all, Cheng Yu usually had a gentle and kind image, especially towards his family and friends, he always treated them with a smile and rarely had a cold face.

But after all, for someone who has been in power for more than 20 years, being gentle doesn’t necessarily mean he has a good temper.

The elder of the Xu family saw Cheng Yu's gloomy face for the first time. The coldness and majesty made people feel inexplicably trembling. She looked at Gao Shujun as if asking for help, but Gao Shujun lowered his eyes and did not speak.

"You don't have to come to the Cheng family anymore."

The elders of the Xu family and Xu Huanxin were panicked when they heard this. They have always relied on the Cheng family for their livelihood, and even the slightest improvement in the Cheng family's finances was enough for them to live a comfortable and prosperous life.

Besides, Cheng Yu had never taken her seriously in the past, so why did he hit a wall this time?

Now that Cheng Yu has said this, they are about to lose this towering tree.

The head of the family always keeps his word, and the Xu family has completely offended Cheng Yu.

The elders of the Xu family immediately begged for mercy. Xu Huanxin bit the soft flesh inside her lips, thinking of going to Madam Cheng Zeng for support.

Gao Shujun said calmly at this time: "The old lady is very old, so let's not disturb her rest."

So the two of them didn't even have the chance to beg for mercy, and left the Cheng family in shame without even having lunch.

The servant at the entrance even threw the coat that Xu Huanxin had taken off back on her when she left, but Xu Huanxin dared not say anything.

In the past, Xu Huanxin would always stay at the Cheng family for a day or two when she came to pay New Year's greetings. But now she left so quickly without even saying goodbye to Mrs. Cheng Zeng.

Mrs. Cheng Zeng thought that Cheng Yu had said something harsh that made Xu Huanxin feel embarrassed to stay. She could not bear to blame her sister's granddaughter, nor could she say anything bad about her grandson. She could only blame Liu Xinyan for wearing a leg-revealing cheongsam in winter.

Liu Xinyan also turned a disaster into a blessing. She stayed in her bedroom for the past two days and didn't have to go out to greet guests.

Cheng Yu probably guessed what kind of monsters Liu Xinyan had faced in the past, so he stayed with her in the bedroom for two whole days as compensation.
