Chapter 653: 140:Regret_3

Mother Sun had not yet noticed anything amiss with Lin Guimei and immediately said, "Come in, come in, I made a big table of dishes today, and later Shan Shan is going to invite her friends over."

"Mm," Lin Guimei nodded.

Mother Sun continued, "Did the contract signing go smoothly today?"

Lin Guimei’s mood instantly plummeted, and she pursed her lips without saying a word.

The expression on Sun Dingbang’s face was also somewhat unpleasant.

Seeing her son and daughter-in-law like this, Mother Sun slightly furrowed her brow, a bad premonition building inside her.

She knew Lin Guimei too well.

If everything had gone smoothly, Lin Guimei would definitely not look like this.

With that thought, Mother Sun immediately turned to Sun Dingbang, "Dingbang, what on earth happened?"

Sun Dingbang opened his mouth, somewhat unsure of how to begin.

"Speak up!" Mother Sun urged, very anxious.

Sun Dingbang, after weighing his words in his heart, said softly, "Gui, Gui Mei’s position as the manager at Beauty Chant fell through."

What!

Fell through!

Mother Sun originally thought this matter was just somewhat tough.

But she never expected it to completely fall through.

Mother Sun felt as if her blood was flowing backward, infuriated, pointing at Sun Dingbang, "You, you say that again!"

Just half an hour ago, she had been bragging to relatives on her husband’s side about how Lin Guimei was going to start working at Beauty Chant tomorrow.

But what now?

Her son actually said that the matter fell through!

How could Mother Sun accept this?

Sun Dingbang could understand his mother’s feelings, after all, the entire family had been happy for a long, long time about Lin Guimei getting a job at Beauty Chant...

"Mom, please calm down..."

Sun Dingbang hadn’t finished speaking when Mother Sun sharply interrupted him, "Calm down! How do you expect me to calm down?"

These days, she’d felt so oppressed at home, had given Lin Guimei so many smiles, and even voluntarily took on all the housework. And after all that, Lin Guimei, this embarrassment, didn’t manage to secure the manager position at Beauty Chant.

Useless!

Simply useless!

Mother Sun was in so much pain that it hurt at her heart, pointing at Lin Guimei, "You tell me exactly what happened!"

Lin Guimei’s lips trembled, unsure where to start.

After all.

She herself had no idea why Beauty Chant had not hired her.

Sun Dingbang stepped in front of Lin Guimei and continued, "Mom, Gui Mei is also very upset about what happened, so please stop pricking her conscience."

"Me, pricking her conscience?" Mother Sun shouted angrily, "Sun Dingbang, am I even your mother anymore? Lately, I’ve been like a nanny, serving your entire family, what for? Wasn’t it all for Lin Guimei to make something of herself, to manage Beauty Chant? But now, you tell me Beauty Chant doesn’t want her, how do I know Lin Guimei didn’t deceive me from the start!"

Sun Dingbang slightly furrowed his brow, "Mom, don’t think like that, Gui Mei is not that type of person."

"If she’s not that type of person, then what is she?" Mother Sun almost wanted to slap Lin Guimei, "Everyone says Beauty Chant’s recruitment is very strict, I was curious indeed! How did Beauty Chant come to fancy her! Turns out, it was all a big mix-up from the start to the end!"

If a man doesn’t step forward to shield against mother-in-law-daughter-in-law conflicts, they only intensify. Sun Dingbang understood this principle, so he unhesitatingly stood in front of Lin Guimei, also aware that now was not the time for blame.

"Mom, you have to believe me, Gui Mei really didn’t lie. The contract had already been signed, but something happened inside Beauty Chant that no one knows of. You’re upset, but Gui Mei is even more so."

Lin Guimei watched her husband and mother-in-law, with an indescribable look in her eyes.

All the years she had been married into the Sun Family, she had treated her mother-in-law like her own, but her mother-in-law always looked down on her.

And her husband?

Each time she had a conflict with her mother-in-law, what could Sun Dingbang do besides trying to smooth things over?

Now, Lin Guimei truly envied Gu Shufen.

Not only did Gu Shufen not have to deal with mother-in-law-daughter-in-law conflicts, but she also lived alone in a large mansion, and most importantly, had a very capable husband.

If it were Gu Shufen who had been rejected today.

Gu Shufen’s husband would definitely be able to solve the problem with a single phone call.

But not Sun Dingbang.

Sun Dingbang was just an ordinary clerk.

Who could she blame?

She could only blame herself for having poor judgment when choosing a partner!

She had chosen an incompetent man.

Unwilling to accept it.

Lin Guimei was very unwilling to accept this.

Why could Gu Shufen, a twice-married woman, not as pretty or capable as herself, marry a rich and powerful man?

And what about her?

She could only stand here alone, amidst the chaos.
