Gu Chi was under quarantine at my villa for a few days.
Both of us were fine and could return to work as usual.
I took Gu Chi to the company, planning to assign some tasks for him to practice.
However, as soon as we entered the office, we saw two familiar figures at the reception desk.
Wasn't that Cai Jinhua and Meng Xiaoya?
Had these two women gotten together so quickly?
At the same time, I calculated the time...
Several days had passed, so Cai Jinhua must have recovered and was now full of energy to cause a stir.
Then I heard Cai Jinhua's sharp voice—
She was arguing with the receptionist:
"An appointment? Are you kidding me!
"That Gu Tingting is just a junior employee; why would I need to go through all this trouble?"
Meng Xiaoya stood beside Cai Jinhua, looking delicate and obedient:
"Auntie, could it be that Miss Gu really has something going on?
"However, logically speaking, she shouldn't be that busy as a junior employee..."
"Could it be that she is deliberately avoiding you and doesn't want to see you?"
I couldn't help but laugh at this.
These two women, one a mindless shrew and the other a scheming green tea, standing together really made it hard to say who was more ridiculous.
At that moment, Meng Xiaoya suddenly looked uncomfortable, covering her mouth and turning away to retch a couple of times.
Gu Chi and I exchanged glances, understanding each other without words...
Sure enough, Meng Xiaoya hadn't aborted the child.
Isn't this morning sickness?
When Meng Xiaoya turned back, she met my gaze.
She blurted out:
" Gu Tingting!"
Wow, we had never met before, yet she recognized me right away.
It seems she had done her homework.
Cai Jinhua also spotted me, her face showing a mocking expression:
"Even late for work, it's clear you've been living off my son these past few years, getting used to a life of ease."
Meng Xiaoya sighed in agreement beside me, "There's nothing we can do, Auntie. Si Han is just too responsible."
I remained expressionless.
Were these two performing a comedy routine?
At that moment, Gu Chi reached out and poked me, whispering, "Sister, is this the mother-in-law you chose for yourself before? She's really both foolish and fierce. It seems you had quite poor judgment back then."
Cai Jinhua finally noticed Gu Chi standing next to me.
She looked us over a few times, and her expression gradually changed. "Well, Gu Tingting, no wonder you turned your back on me; it turns out you have a new lover!"
She scrutinized us with a cold smile. "It seems you've gotten quite a bit of money from my son to support such a young pretty boy."
I scoffed.
There was really no need to waste words on people like them.
"Aunt Cai, this is the company, not a place for tantrums.
"Now, you can either leave on your own, or I will have security escort you out."
Cai Jinhua pointed at me aggressively:
"What, are you in a hurry to get rid of me because you're feeling guilty?
" Gu Tingting, I know all about that villa under your name, you fraud!
"If you have a house, why did you lie to Si Han and say it was rented?
"Isn't this just playing the victim to try and take advantage of my son?"
She said this while slapping her thigh, looking extremely upset.
Meng Xiaoya was beside her, patting her back:
"Auntie, please don't be anxious, take care of your health."
I watched these two as if I were witnessing a grand drama.
Gu Chi nearby had his arms crossed, clearly enjoying the show.
He looked like he was just missing a bucket of popcorn.
Cai Jinhua changed to a heartbroken expression:
"For the past three years, my precious son has truly been deceived by you; I don't even know how much money he has spent on you!"
I said coolly, "Aunt Cai, just say it, what do you really want?"
Cai Jinhua finally revealed her true intentions:
"Hurry up and sell the villa! Give our family Xiao Han two million!
Otherwise, I will sue you for fraud!"
Fraud.
Unbelievable.
This aunt must be trying to make me laugh to death.
I said meaningfully, "Sure, go ahead and sue. I'm curious to see who will end up in trouble after all the back and forth."
After saying that, I didn't want to waste any more time and was about to call security.
At that moment, the elevator doors opened—
Qin Sihan had arrived.
"Mom, what are you doing here?"
Qin Sihan quickly walked over to Cai Jinhua.
Cai Jinhua subconsciously glanced at Meng Xiaoya, tugged at Qin Sihan's sleeve, and pulled him aside to whisper:
"Mom is worried about you!
"You said your debts are due soon, right? That's why I had this woman sell the villa to help pay off your debts.
"After all, for the past three years, she has been living off you. All the money you earned before has been spent by her, so she must pay the price!"
Ironically, while Cai Jinhua was saying this, she was only focused on avoiding Meng Xiaoya and completely unaware that—
They were too close to my position, and I heard everything clearly.
I couldn't help but glance at Qin Sihan.
At this point, I still wanted to see his reaction.
In the three years of our relationship, he knew very well how good I had been to him.
He understood deeply that he had been living off me.
For this reason, the sweet words he used to comfort me, along with the apologies and promises he made, were countless by now.
I wanted to see if he would still try to explain himself now.
The answer was—
No.
Qin Sihan's face was dark and awkward, yet he said nothing.
He lowered his head, tacitly agreeing with Cai Jinhua's thoughts.
His former pride had turned into ridiculous vanity.
He couldn't even admit that for these past few years, he had been relying on me.
I’m afraid that during the years when his mother complained to him, he must have been showing off to Cai Jinhua as well.
In fact, he was using me as a shield.
Otherwise, how would Cai Jinhua think that Qin Sihan had spent all the money on me?
I sneered, but felt no waves in my heart.
People need to learn from their mistakes.
Disappointment after disappointment leads to numbness.
Perhaps feeling truly embarrassed, Qin Sihan grabbed Cai Jinhua's arm and said:
"Mom, let's go. There's no need to make a scene here; it's embarrassing."
Of course, Cai Jinhua refused and shook him off:
"How can that be! Over the years, that wretched Gu Tingting has taken so much from you; she must pay it all back today!
"Otherwise, I won't leave!"
Saying this, she plopped down on the ground.
Since Qin Sihan's appearance, Meng Xiaoya seemed even more delicate.
She spoke softly, pretending to comfort Cai Jinhua:
"Auntie, don't be angry. It's not worth getting upset over someone like that.
"Let's listen to Sihan; he must have his own plans."
Cai Jinhua quickly got up, holding Meng Xiaoya's belly:
"Xiaoya, you're pregnant, so you should be more careful.
"How about letting Sihan take you home first? I can stay here; she’s just a small employee. What can she do to me?"
Meng Xiaoya smiled obediently in agreement with Cai Jinhua.
At the same time, her gaze glanced at me, and her expression was quite smug.
