On the day of his whirlwind wedding, the heir to a wealthy family stood up!

In the afternoon, the foundation held an auction. Su Chenxi stood on the second-floor railing to watch. She saw that Zhu Ying and Xia Xiaomeng had also come. Today's auction attracted many wealthy ladies, and the jewelry items were the main focus of the auction.

When Xia Xiaomeng got up to go to the restroom, she looked up and saw Su Chenxi on the second floor. Su Chenxi was dressed in a business suit and surrounded by two subordinates. She looked like the mistress of the house, which made Xia Xiaomeng jealous.

Su Chenxi and Xia Xiaomeng exchanged a glance, and Xia Xiaomeng angrily picked up her bag and went to the restroom.

The auction went smoothly. After it ended, Su Chenxi was on her way back to her office when a voice called out to her from behind.

"Niece-in-law, shall we chat?"

Su Chenxi turned around and saw Zhu Ying walking towards her with Xia Xiaomeng. Su Chenxi smiled and said, "Auntie, is there something you need?"

Zhu Ying grasped Su Chenxi's hand, "Niece-in-law, let's forget about the unpleasant things from before! After all, we're family!"

"Chenxi, I apologize to you. I may have really slipped and fell down the steps that day, causing you to get hurt along with me. I'm so sorry!" Xia Xiaomeng lowered her gaze and forced a smile as she apologized.

Su Chenxi's inner alarm bells rang; the way this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were behaving so warmly towards her meant that nothing good was about to happen.

“This foundation is very busy, and it must be hard for you to manage it all by yourself. How about this? Let Xiaomeng come in as the vice chairman to help you with some of the miscellaneous tasks that you can’t handle. What do you think?” Zhu Ying asked with a smile.

Su Chenxi was speechless. She had only said those nice things for less than a minute, and now they were already making demands.

"Auntie, I can't make this decision myself. You'll have to ask Grandma first," Su Chenxi said with a smile, then looked at Xia Xiaomeng, "Sister-in-law, you just had a miscarriage less than a month ago! I've heard that miscarriages are very harmful to the body. Why don't you rest for another two months?"

"It was just a miscarriage, it's nothing serious." Xia Xiaomeng smiled, indicating that she was fully recovered.

Zhu Ying glanced at Xia Xiaomeng and said, "Xiaomeng, although you are Chenxi's sister-in-law, you should learn from Chenxi. There are so many things going on in the Shen family, you need to get involved, understand?"

"I understand, Mom." Xia Xiaomeng looked up at Su Chenxi with a humble expression and pleaded, "Chenxi, please let me come and help you! Okay?"

Su Chenxi smiled and said, "I don't make the decisions about the foundation. Grandma is the chairperson. You should discuss things with her!"

"So, you've agreed?" Xia Xiaomeng feigned surprise.

Su Chenxi felt disgusted, but she understood their scheme. They wanted to bring it up with her, and then make the old lady think that she had agreed to let Xia Xiaomeng come in to help, based on the fact that Su Chenxi didn't refuse.

“Xiaomeng, I told you so! Chenxi isn’t that stingy; she’ll definitely agree to come and help you,” Zhu Ying immediately chimed in.

Xia Xiaomeng nodded happily, "Mom, I know Chenxi. She is a kind and generous person."

Seeing herself being schemed against and manipulated by this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Su Chenxi had no choice but to endure it. If she were to turn against them on the spot, they would definitely complain to the old lady.

Instead, it would put the old lady in a difficult position, forcing her to make decisions for her. She could only smile and say, "Auntie, Xiaomeng, I'll go and get back to work now."

After saying that, Su Chenxi turned and left. As soon as she left, Zhu Ying's face darkened. "Let's go! Go see the old lady tonight and get you into the foundation as a manager first."

"Mom, will it work?" Xia Xiaomeng asked, biting her lip.

"If you beg and soften your stance, it should work," Zhu Ying said. The old lady still cared deeply for the younger generation.

Su Chenxi returned to her office, picked up her phone, and dialed Shen Yanchuan's number.

"Missing me?" the man on the other end asked with a soft laugh.

"I have something to ask you," Su Chenxi said.

"Say it!"

Su Chenxi recounted Zhu Ying's scheme, and Shen Yanchuan immediately asked, "Don't you want Xia Xiaomeng to join the foundation?"

Su Chenxi didn't hide her emotions in front of him, "I hope she's as far away from me as possible, I hate her."

"Okay, I'll tell Grandma about this for you."

Hearing that the man was willing to stand up for her, Su Chenxi breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you."

Let's go home together tonight and have dinner with Grandma!

“Okay!” Su Chenxi replied, having not spent a few days with Grandma Shen.

When Su Chenxi got off work, she called her mother and told her that she wouldn't be going home that night. Su Meifen also advised her to visit her in-laws' home more often and not to worry about her anymore.

Around five o'clock, Shen Yanchuan's sports car stopped in front of the foundation. Su Chenxi got out with her bag and walked towards his sports car. They hadn't seen each other for two days, and the man's gaze seemed even more intense.

When the two arrived at the villa halfway up the mountain, they saw two people already sitting on the sofa in the living room: Zhu Ying and Xia Xiaomeng.

Su Chenxi's heart tightened. Had they already brought it up? Had Grandma agreed?

"Chenxi, Yanchuan, you're back just in time! Let's have a chat!" the old lady called out.

Shen Yanchuan reached out and took Su Chenxi's hand, leading her to the sofa. Xia Xiaomeng watched this scene with jealousy in her heart. They had both married into the Shen family, but her husband was nowhere to be seen all day long, while Su Chenxi's husband would hold her hand when he came home, as if he was afraid she would get lost.

It's really different fate for the same person.

The old lady extended her hand to Su Chenxi, who took it and sat down next to her. Shen Yanchuan, who was sitting down next to her, also sat down gracefully without greeting the two people opposite them.

"Yan Chuan, how's the company doing lately?" Zhu Ying asked him, lowering herself to ask.

"Not bad," Shen Yanchuan replied casually.

"Mom, then I'll trouble you to arrange the matter I just mentioned. Xiaomeng should do something for the Shen family too," Zhu Ying said with a smile, clearly having already made her request.

The old lady turned her head and casually asked Su Chenxi, "Chenxi, have you been busy with work lately?"

Seeing the old lady staring intently at her, Su Chenxi immediately understood the implication in her words. She shook her head and said, "Not busy, I'm quite free."

"So, the foundation can handle all the work, right?" the old lady asked again.

"Yes, I can handle all the work I've been doing since I took over," Su Chenxi replied confidently, no longer being modest.

Zhu Ying and her mother-in-law across from them looked grim.

"Grandma, my wife is naturally the best." Shen Yanchuan took the opportunity to praise her.

The old lady chuckled, "Good, good, I know you have good taste, choosing such a capable daughter-in-law as Chenxi."

The old lady stopped laughing and said to Zhu Ying across from her, "Ying, I think Xiaomeng doesn't need to work at the foundation. Chenxi can manage it alone."

"Mom, this..."

"It's decided then. Xiaomeng can pursue other careers; you can all support her." The old lady made the decision decisively.

Seeing that there was no hope, Zhu Ying turned around and started scolding Xia Xiaomeng, "Look at you, how can you be so incompetent? Chenxi can do things, why can't you do them? I had high hopes for you back then, why are you so disappointing?"
