Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!
Chapter 998 - 423: Sister-in-law Harmony Is Bound to Leave One Person Neglected_2

There's no way, she really hasn't experienced grievances.

Face-to-face hurt, Jiang Xinyi is no stranger to it.

But this feeling of being unable to express herself is truly unbearable.

Zhou Yuwen walked over and asked her what was wrong.

Jiang Xinyi shook her head and didn't speak.

She just turned her face to glance at the kitchen over there.

Zhou Yuwen saw this scene and more or less understood a bit, so he gently pulled Jiang Xinyi's small hand and smiled.

Jiang Xinyi didn't say anything and directly threw herself into Zhou Yuwen's arms, not at all like an older sister who is six years older than him.

This was one of the rare moments when Jiang Xinyi sincerely showed her vulnerability to Zhou Yuwen.

It was as if she was being forced by Su Qing to let these women know who is really Zhou Yuwen's girlfriend now.

Seeing Jiang Xinyi's grievances, Zhou Yuwen naturally patted the back of her head to comfort her, no matter what, he gently coaxed: "Okay, okay, aren't you an adult now? Why are you still acting like a child?"

"Why don't we go out for a walk?" Zhou Yuwen asked as Jiang Xinyi remained silent.

Jiang Xinyi gently nodded.

So Zhou Yuwen took Jiang Xinyi's hand and walked out the door.

Su Qing and Zheng Yanyan saw this scene.

At first, there was nothing special about it.

But when Zhou Yuwen took Jiang Xinyi out, she glanced back at them with a look that was clearly provocative, meaning, did you see that?

Zheng Yanyan couldn't swallow her pride and was angry upon seeing this, so she quietly said to Su Qing: "Look at her, she's just getting more and more audacious, you better find a way!"

Su Qing found this amusing and couldn't help but say: "Why don't you come up with a plan? Aren't you usually full of sneaky ideas? Why don't you go up and tear her down yourself!"

Zheng Yanyan said: "I, I can't do it, I never intended to be the main squeeze."

"?" Su Qing raised an eyebrow, deeply suspicious of Zheng Yanyan's intention, thinking who was it that fought with her tooth and nail for this position just a few days ago?

And now she's saying she doesn't want it?

So, is she saying that only I want it?

Feeling guilty, Zheng Yanyan avoided looking at Su Qing.

Actually, Zhou Yuwen didn't take Jiang Xinyi far, just strolled around in the yard, and through the living room's floor-to-ceiling window, they could sometimes be seen holding hands.

But the more they watched, the more uncomfortable it felt.

And that Jiang Xinyi, how old is she, still acting spoiled with Zhou Yuwen?

She even pretends to be aggrieved, as if she's wiping tears?

The girls in the kitchen couldn't hear what Zhou Yuwen and Jiang Xinyi were talking about, but they could see her suddenly cling to Zhou Yuwen and cry as they walked.

This made the girls think it seemed fake.

In Zheng Yanyan's words, she's just pretending to be pitiful.

The shameless old woman!

But actually, Jiang Xinyi wasn't pretending to be pitiful, she was genuinely feeling wronged, and was talking to Zhou Yuwen about how Mrs. Zhou didn't like her.

She felt really aggrieved, saying that she was Zhou Yuwen's girlfriend.

"Your mom came to Jinling with great effort, I specifically arranged for our driver to bring the family car over, planning to make her a little more comfortable, but she didn't appreciate it at all."

"I'm your girlfriend, but she prefers to ride with Su Qing and Zheng Yanyan, and not with me!"

All of Jiang Xinyi's grievances finally found an outlet with Zhou Yuwen, and as she talked, she couldn't help but wipe her tears.

Seeing this, Zhou Yuwen, surprised that the dignified Miss Jiang was crying over such a small matter, gently coaxed, saying there's no such thing.

"My mom just isn't familiar with you, but she knows Su Qing and Zheng Yanyan,"

"But I'm your girlfriend now."

Jiang Xinyi emphasized several times, she just felt wronged.

"And just now, when I greeted your mom and tried to help her with something, she actually rejected me, it must be your ex or your ex-ex who spoke ill of me!"

Jiang Xinyi spoke with some irritation and glanced back at the window.

At this moment, Su Qing and Zheng Yanyan were staring at her, and when Jiang Xinyi looked back, they averted their eyes.

Jiang Xinyi squinted her eyes.

Zhou Yuwen still wanted to play dumb, saying that wasn't this quite nice.

"You're the young lady, who shouldn't have to do any hard work, see, they're cooking and we're just waiting to eat, isn't that great?" Zhou Yuwen said, holding Jiang Xinyi's pair of smooth white hands.

Jiang Xinyi was speechless, she said, that's not the point at all!

Zhou Yuwen still tried to act clueless, but Jiang Xinyi laid it out seriously, stating once more that she is Zhou Yuwen's girlfriend!

So Su Qing and Zheng Yanyan, being ex and ex-ex, shouldn't exist in this context.

Yang Lijuan, being Zhou Yuwen's mother, should also set boundaries with them.

These, she might not know.

"But you have to tell her!"

Jiang Xinyi spoke earnestly, while Zhou Yuwen said, how old is my mom?

"And besides, my mom must know, but she knows these two girls, and I definitely keep my distance, but if they insist on chatting with my mom, my mom can't just coldly ignore them, right?"

Zhou Yuwen's explanation made sense, but Jiang Xinyi was still very upset.

Seeing Jiang Xinyi's expression, Zhou Yuwen sighed and said: "Fine, I'll tell my mom later to take note, she's only got you as her daughter-in-law, alright?"

"What daughter-in-law?"

Jiang Xinyi pouted at this term.

Zhou Yuwen chuckled hearing this and gently pinched Jiang Xinyi's cheek, saying: "Isn't it just being the daughter-in-law."

After strolling around the garden with Jiang Xinyi, they were called inside by Yang Lijuan, who said it was time to eat, so Zhou Yuwen led Jiang Xinyi inside holding her hand.

By this time, the girls had already laid out a table full of dishes.

Zheng Yanyan and Su Qing ignored Jiang Xinyi and called out to Zhou Yuwen to join them at the table, saying that they had put a lot of effort into this meal.

"Later, you have to guess who made each dish," Zheng Yanyan said.

Zhou Yuwen chuckled at this and said: "I don't know who made which dish, but I know there's none made by you."

"Ah, what do you mean!" Zheng Yanyan was immediately displeased.

Zhou Yuwen said, do I not know your cooking skills?

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh, while Zheng Yanyan angrily complained to Yang Lijuan: "Auntie, look at him, he's bullying me!"

At this point, Yang Lijuan exercised her maternal authority and glared at Zhou Yuwen: "How can you talk about Yanyan like that?"

Zhou Yuwen just smiled at Zheng Yanyan and said: "Now you're even tattling?"

"Hmph."

"This carp soup, it's clearly made by Linlin, right?" Zhou Yuwen casually glanced and immediately recognized.

Then he looked at the fried chicken, Thousand-Cut Meat, and such, clearly made by his own mom.

During the meal, everyone shared a friendly rapport, collectively praising how delicious Yang Lijuan's cooking was, and complimenting each other, like Lu Lin's carp soup being really fresh, to which Yang Lijuan initially commented that the girl is really good at cooking.

Then Zheng Yanyan and Su Qing backed up Lu Lin, and after Tao Tian had a bowl of carp soup, she also nodded in praise, saying it's really good.

Tao Tian had just made a stir-fried beef dish, which was reasonably good, and Lu Lin said: "Yours is not bad either."

Tao Tian chuckled and said: "Really, I was afraid it wouldn't suit your taste."

Among this crowd, probably the least skilled at cooking were Su Qing and Zheng Yanyan, but they managed to learn a little, and so they awkwardly whipped up some vegetable dishes.

Though lacking a bit in taste, their courage was commendable.

As a master chef, Yang Lijuan also said, you guys have a knack for cooking.

This made Su Qing and Zheng Yanyan very happy.

Now, with a large table full of food, these four girls of Zhou Yuwen, who previously had more or less conflicts, at this moment were in perfect harmony, and their harmony meant one girl was being neglected, a neglect that doesn't sit well at all.
