Chapter 804: 0793 Dare you?
"Hmph, she’s just so-so in terms of looks, not that pretty!"
"She’s just a fashion designer, how capable can she be? Nowadays, which family chooses a daughter-in-law based solely on appearance? If they bring home a mere flower vase, who knows how they’ll be mocked!"
"Absolutely, to find an ideal daughter-in-law, one should choose someone like Xiyao. Not only does she have a powerful family background, but she also has her own abilities and talents. That’s the best choice!"
"Stop joking, Xiyao is going to marry into the Fu family as the Eldest Young Madam. Who here can compare to her?"
"True enough!"
The few ladies who initially wanted to speak with Su Ran heard these words and looked awkward, retreating as they reconsidered.
If they approached now, they would undoubtedly become the target of ridicule.
Watching Su Ran being isolated by the crowd, Chu Xiyao curled her lips slightly. A person’s birth indeed determines many things.
Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, it’s all in vain. She should understand this deeply by now.
However, she didn’t intend to go too far. After all, tonight was the Chu family’s event. As the host, it wouldn’t be appropriate to neglect a guest. If it reached Qi Yuan’s ears, that would be hard to explain!
Chu Xiyao, maintaining her host’s posture, was about to greet Su Ran when someone else walked over to Su Ran first.
"Why are you here? What are you doing here?!"
Hearing the voice, Su Ran looked up and saw the furious woman before her. At first, she was confused, but then she remembered the woman’s identity from the familiar look in her frowned brows.
The woman she had a conflict with recently at a jewelry store, Yang Yuxin’s mother.
Yang Yuxin called Chu Xiyao ’cousin’, so this woman must be some aunt of Xiyao?
No wonder she felt the woman looked somewhat familiar before.
With just one sentence, the woman successfully drew everyone’s attention.
Chu Xiyao’s eyes flashed a glimmer as she walked over to the two.
"Auntie, do you know each other?"
Ruan Peihong snorted coldly, looking at Su Ran with a trace of disdain in her eyes.
"Xiyao, you know this woman?"
Chu Xiyao’s eyes twinkled, "She’s a guest I invited."
Ruan Peihong widened her eyes, "How can you invite just anyone? This woman swindled two million from me recently!"
Chu Xiyao was secretly delighted but kept her composure, "Auntie, don’t speak hastily."
"Hastily? Your cousin was there too last time."
"This..."
Upon hearing Ruan Peihong’s words, the crowd began to look at Su Ran strangely.
Especially those ladies who had just wanted to talk to Su Ran, feeling lucky now.
"Auntie, could there be some misunderstanding?"
Ruan Peihong’s voice was sharp, "What misunderstanding? Xiyao, you’re too careless. It’s your mother’s birthday party tonight. Everyone here is distinguished. If she swindles someone else, what then?"
"Auntie is right, it was my negligence!"
With that one sentence, it was clear Su Ran was the person Ruan Peihong described!
Ruan Peihong snorted coldly, looking at Su Ran with arrogance and disdain.
"Hey, you’re not welcome here, please leave! Otherwise, don’t blame me for having someone throw you out."
"Pfft——"
As Ruan Peihong finished speaking, Su Ran suddenly chuckled softly.
Holding a glass of red wine, she remained seated without getting up.
Looking up at the two in front of her, she did not appear weak at all. Instead, her cool and intimidating presence made people fear her.
Her eyebrows slightly raised, lips curved a bit, she looked at Chu Xiyao with a faint smile.
"Throw me out? Miss Chu, do you dare?"
Not would you?
Not could you?
But do you dare?
The three words she uttered were filled with unrestrained arrogance and dominance.
Chu Xiyao’s face changed, biting her teeth hard, her chest full of anger!
Dare?
Indeed, she didn’t dare!
Not only didn’t dare, but couldn’t!
Su Ran now held the status of Fu Qiyuan’s fiancée, kicking her out would be a public slap to the Fu family.
Damn it.
What was she so smug about?
If it weren’t for the Fu family, she would be nothing!
"What’s there to be afraid of! Xiyao will be the future head of the Chu family and the future Eldest Young Madam of the Fu family. There’s nothing she can’t do!" Ruan Peihong said proudly.
"Auntie!!" Chu Xiyao’s face turned drastically!
"Oh? The future Eldest Young Madam of the Fu family?"
Ruan Peihong lifted her chin arrogantly, "Yes! Xiyao and Eldest Young Master Fu grew up together. She has always been groomed to be the Eldest Young Madam of the Fu family!"
"Auntie!!!"
Chu Xiyao’s face turned pale. Her aunt was always so blunt.
While it was a commonly accepted fact, some occasions required restraint.
Su Ran stood up slowly, looking down at Chu Xiyao who seemed a bit out of sorts.
Her crimson lips curved slightly, showing an unspeakable mockery.
"It’s a pity, as long as I live, you will always be just a concubine!"
Chu Xiyao’s expression uncontrollably twisted again.
Ruan Peihong glared at Su Ran sharply.
"What do you mean by that?!"
Su Ran raised an eyebrow, "What do I mean? It means as long as I’m here, your dear niece will never step foot into the Fu family!"
The crowd looked at Su Ran in amazement, not expecting her to say such arrogant words.
"Ha! Just you? Who do you think you are? You..."
"What’s all the noise here?"
Before Ruan Peihong could finish, a stern voice sounded from behind.
Then the sound of people greeting followed, "Mrs. Fu, Mrs. Chu."
Turning around, the group saw two women approaching, surrounded by people.
Su Ran looked at the gracefully dressed woman in the high-end evening gown beside Tao Wanqing, and immediately understood who she was.
Chu Xiyao’s mother, Ruan Peishan.
Ruan Peishan’s gaze swept over Su Ran, then turned to Ruan Peihong.
"What’s happening? Why are you all arguing?"
Ruan Peihong shot a vicious glance at Su Ran, then made her accusation.
"Peishan, this woman is deliberately causing trouble and ruining your birthday party."
"..."
"..."
The crowd was speechless.
Even if they wanted to flatter the Chu family, they couldn’t say such things against their conscience.
"This woman swindled two million from me before, and now she’s making trouble at your birthday party. I think she’s doing it on purpose." Ruan Peihong said evasively.
The smile in Tao Wanqing’s eyes faded a bit. She gave Ruan Peihong a faint look, then focused her gaze on Su Ran, a smile reappearing.
"Xiao Ran, you’re here!"
Su Ran smiled and nodded, stepping to Tao Wanqing’s side, calling softly——
"Mom!"
"!"
"!!"
"!!!"
Hearing Su Ran’s greeting, everyone was stunned on the spot.
