After the rebirth of the wronged soft girl, the devil's crematorium
Chapter 112 Thanking Mother
The sunlight today was a bit dazzling. Fang Jinyue squinted her eyes and looked up at the blue figure. She felt it was even more dazzling.
Pei was dressed in a royal blue gown with only a mutton-fat jade hairpin on her head. Although she did not have a golden jade dress or luxurious gold hairpins, she had a sense of majesty that was intimidating without even being angry.
Arriving at the main hall, Pei glanced around and leisurely sat down at the head of the table. "I came here today to see someone."
Fang Jinyue took a moment to react and said "Oh": "But the Su family's wife?"
Pei smiled faintly.
Fang Jinyue appeared respectful, but inwardly she cursed him a thousand times: They say the rich and powerful are superior to the rest of humanity; she'd seen plenty of such arrogance. But she suddenly felt a little sorry for Xie Yin; it was obvious from the Pei family that he wasn't someone to be trifled with. Even a lunatic like Xie Yin would have to bow before this lady. It seemed his temper was closely tied to his family background.
"Why don't you go and invite Madam Su over?" Fang Jinyue instructed the servants outside the door, then gave Madam Xie a flattering smile.
Soon, Su Wan followed the maid around the screen. When she looked up, she saw a pair of scrutinizing eyes cast on her.
"Thank you, Madam."
Pei: "Logically, you and I shouldn't have any contact. I came here today, so you should have guessed something, right?"
The room was quiet for a while, and Fang Jinyue stood up consciously to give the two of them space to talk.
Pei kept looking at Su Wan. Everyone said this girl was ugly, calculating, and shameless. But when her eyes met with the person opposite her, she had a different feeling. Was this girl too good at pretending?
"Madam, have you heard any rumors?" Su Wan asked with a smile.
Pei's brows relaxed. "I don't care what others say. I only care about my son's well-being. Perhaps in the eyes of some people, he is a scoundrel who disrespects etiquette and the law, but he is not someone who anyone can touch. I will never allow anyone to become a stumbling block to him."
Mrs. Pei knew that Xie Yin was not close to the Xie family and that what he was doing was against the Xie family's wishes. However, as a mother, she had the responsibility and the right to choose a partner and future for him, which was naturally for his own good.
"Madam, are you saying that I blocked Chief Xie's future?" Su Wan looked at Pei, and there seemed to be a cold light hidden under her calm eyes, which made Pei frown again.
"How can a weak woman like me hinder his future? Please explain to Madam Xie."
Pei sneered, "Are you playing dumb with me? Let me ask you, when you divorced Zheng Yanchen, did you seek my son's help?"
Su Wan lowered her head and smiled. It seemed that someone from the Yu family had spread rumors in front of the Queen Mother.
"Forgive me for being blunt, but you know Chief Xie's temperament best. As Madam said, how could my status make Chief Xie willingly become an enemy of the Zheng family?"
"That's because he and the Zheng family don't get along, and you just happened to suit his taste."
"So," Su Wan said with a half-smile, "Everything Chief Xie did was for profit. It wasn't coercion or temptation on my part. Madam Xie shouldn't have come to me to talk. Since you understand his temper, you naturally understand that he wouldn't be willing to be a sharp blade, let alone my sharp blade."
Mrs. Xie paused as she looked at the sharp words from the other side. She asked in disbelief, "Are you saying that Xingzhi is deliberately provoking you?"
Su Wan stood up and bowed her head, saying, "Please don't misunderstand Madam Xie. I don't know what Madam Xie has heard, but Chief Xie will never do anything without benefit. This is just the way we interact. If Madam Xie feels that I have influenced him,
I can only say that I have never thought of doing so, and I naturally maintain a sense of propriety with Chief Xie. Perhaps you can talk to Chief Xie about it."
Su Wan knew that if she denied the rumors about her relationship with Xie Yin, the Pei family wouldn't believe her. But she couldn't be a target for their anger. Besides, even if she admitted it, what would happen? Madam Xie came to see her alone because she feared the Su family would hold Xie Yin responsible, while the Yu family feared the Su and Xie families would become involved.
Mrs. Xie came to her because she knew that Xie Yin would not listen to her, and Su Wan naturally had to make her attitude clear. Xie Yin's relationship with his mother had nothing to do with her.
Pei was speechless for a moment, her eyes turning from surprise to anger as she stared at Su Wan. Contrary to the rumors, she felt that this woman was indeed quite successful, yet neither humble nor overbearing, possessing some of the aspirations of a woman from an aristocratic family.
But she actually disobeyed him like this! If she hadn't pestered Xingzhi, how could Xingzhi have contacted her?
"I will discipline my son, but please, Madam Su, please control yourself and don't lose your composure. You should be aware of your status and situation. You have your own path to follow, and he has his. The Xie family can't keep letting him act like this."
When Pei lost her eldest son, she truly hated Xie Yin. But then, the young Xie Yin always stayed by her side, allowing her to spank him without a fight. After he turned fifteen, perhaps because of her pain, Xie Yin grew distant, leading to a certain distance between them. Even so, Xie Yin never disobeyed her.
However, in recent days, whenever she mentioned asking him to stay away from Su Wan, Pei Shi saw a look of caution in Xie Yin's eyes. She never believed that Xie Yin would treat her like this.
How could a rural girl, a divorced woman, possibly allow her son to do this? Today, she had some answers. She would not allow her son's heart to be dominated by such a woman!
Pei continued, "He's already twenty years old. It's time for the Xie family to let him settle down. But what will you do then?" Pei looked at Su Wan and smiled faintly. "With your status, you certainly can't enter the Xie family. You're so smart, you must be able to see Xie Yin's temperament. Have you ever seen a man in the brothels fall in love with anyone?"
Su Wan fumbled with the teacup in her hand and smiled faintly.
Pei straightened her body. "If the deal between you two ended, do you think he would still treat you with such respect? How many men are loyal to one woman? Moreover, he is Xie Yin, a devil who doesn't take anyone seriously.
If someone ever crosses his line, he will absolutely destroy their life. As a woman, I offer this kind advice to you, and please also understand my feelings as a mother."
Su Wan stood there and listened quietly to Madam Xie's words. Although she never cared about all the words before, she took the last sentence to heart. Didn't Xie Yin reach out to her in the previous life?
"Mother's heart?" Su Wan looked up suddenly.
"What did you say?"
"I know there's some truth in what Madam said, and I've never thought of having any romantic relationship with Mr. Xie. But in my interactions with Mr. Xie, I feel that he's a man of his own ideas and grace.
In my daughter's eyes, he will definitely achieve what he wants with his own abilities, and he also believes that his mother will be his backer."
Su Wan looked up and saw Pei's face full of shock.
Pei was kneeling in front of the table, her hands unconsciously clutching her robe. This woman was reminding herself, but what did Xingzhi say to her?
