Lord, give up! Madam has too many vests

Chapter 239

Qin Shi did not return to the villa that night.

When Yan Lan woke up in the morning, she saw the message sent by "Shi Guang".

The message was sent in the middle of the night. At that time, he should have been with Bai Xiaoyu.

Thinking of this, Yan Lan felt as if something had stabbed her heart, making her feel even worse.

She simply threw her phone aside and ignored the message.

Mrs. Qin was sitting at the dining table for breakfast. She glanced around the restaurant and didn't see Qin Shi. A hint of confusion appeared on her face.

"My brother didn't come back last night. Mom, it's time for you to take care of him," Qin Shengsheng couldn't help but complain before Mrs. Qin could ask.

As she spoke, she placed the spoon in her hand heavily on the plate, making a crisp sound.

"Give him a few more companies to manage, and he won't have time to deal with those bad friends."

When Qin Shengsheng thought about the news about her brother last night, she felt a surge of anger in her heart.

She sat there angrily, her brows furrowed and her eyes full of dissatisfaction.

It’s better not to let her know who the woman who is secretly hooking up with her brother is!

Otherwise, she would never let him go easily.

The atmosphere in the restaurant was a little subtle.

Shen Yunzhong sat aside, leisurely picked up the coffee, took a sip, and spoke casually,

"I actually think that if a man doesn't come home at night, it's most likely related to his wife. Only a wife without talent or moral integrity can't control her man."

His tone was calm, but his words were like a sharp knife, stabbing straight into Yan Lan.

After saying that, he put down the coffee cup, picked up the napkin and gently wiped the corner of his mouth. His eyes, with a scrutinizing look, fell lightly on Yan Lan, with a smile on his face.

After hearing this, Mrs. Qin frowned slightly, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes, and she was about to speak.

There was a perfect smile on Yan Lan's lips, and there was gentleness in that smile. She gently put down the cutlery in her hand.

She raised her eyes to look at Shen Yunzhong, her tone as light as if she was talking about the weather.

"Dad, you are right. I am indeed unworthy and untalented."

Her generous admission made Shen Yunzhong, who was present, slightly stunned.

Yan Lan suddenly changed the subject, and her tone was filled with a hint of intriguing meaning.

"But I heard that some men prefer women who have no morals or talents and are inferior to their wives in every aspect.

Perhaps in their minds, such women are easy to control and deceive."

After saying that, she picked up the cup, took a sip of milk, and her eyes passed vaguely across Shen Yunzhong's face. Shen Yunzhong's hand holding the coffee cup paused slightly, and the expression on his face became a little unnatural.

He glanced at Mrs. Qin beside him out of the corner of his eye and felt a little guilty.

Why did he feel that there was something else behind Yan Lan's words? Could it be that she knew something?

Yan Lan has never been a person who likes to care about things, but she knows clearly in her heart whether this "not caring" refers to internal or external matters.

She naturally would not turn a deaf ear to Shen Yunzhong's groundless accusations today.

In her opinion, since Shen Yunzhong did not take her as his daughter-in-law seriously, there was no need for her to recognize him as her father-in-law.

Fortunately, she has the considerate Mrs. Qin as her mother-in-law, and the lively and righteous Qin Shengsheng as her sister-in-law. With them around, the warmth in this family is enough.

"Dad, why is my sister-in-law so talentless and immoral?"

Qin Shengsheng's voice was clear and loud, instantly breaking the slightly depressing atmosphere.

She didn't notice the hidden sniping between her father and Yan Lan at all, and continued to stand up for Yan Lan carelessly.

"My sister-in-law is amazing. There's nothing she can't do. Last time, my computer broke down and I couldn't fix it, but my sister-in-law came and fixed it in no time.

As for my complicated homework, once she helped me, the difficult problems were easily solved.

She also manages household affairs in an orderly manner and treats people with generosity and propriety. None of my friends dislikes my sister-in-law."

As Qin Shengsheng spoke, she counted on her fingers, listing Yan Lan's advantages one by one, her face full of pride.

After the meal, the atmosphere at the table gradually calmed down.

Qin Shengsheng went to class.

Mrs. Qin sat at the dining table, her eyes full of concern. She looked at Yan Lan and sighed softly.

"Lanlan," she called softly, her voice filled with helplessness and worry, "Please give Qin Shi a call. The child hasn't come home all night and didn't even tell the family. I'm really worried."

Mrs. Qin frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied.

After hearing this, Yan Lan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

This was the first time she took the initiative to call Qin Shi since they got married.

The phone beeped several times, each one like a knock on her heart. Finally, a female voice came from the other end.

"Hello?" The voice sounded a little sleepy, and Yan Lan immediately recognized that it was Bai Xiaoyu.

In an instant, it felt like a taut string in my heart suddenly broke.

She opened her mouth, but no sound came out and she stood there in a daze for a long time.

"Are you Sister Yan Lan?

Sorry...Brother Qin is in the bathroom.

We don’t have anything.”

Bai Xiaoyu's voice came from the receiver, and the deliberately awkward tone in her voice seemed to rub salt into Yan Lan's wounds.

Her words seemed full of apology, but each word revealed a sense of pride, as if she was showing off her intimacy with Qin Shi to Yan Lan.

Before Yan Lan could recover from the shock, Mrs. Qin snatched the phone from her hand.

Mrs. Qin, who is usually graceful and elegant and never utters a dirty word, now feels as if she is facing a great enemy.

She held the phone tightly, a cold light in her eyes that she had never seen before, and asked loudly,

"who are you?

I am Madam Qin, Qin Shi’s mother.

How could my son be with you?"

Mrs. Qin's voice was full of anger. As a mother, she could not tolerate her son being in the same room with another woman other than his daughter-in-law.

Bai Xiaoyu was startled by Mrs. Qin's sudden questioning. Her body trembled violently and she almost dropped her phone.

Her face turned pale instantly, her eyes were filled with fear and panic, and she stammered,

"Mrs. Qin, I'm Bai Xiaoyu, and I'm friends with Brother Qin. We've known each other for a long time."

Her voice trembled with a hint of guilt.

Bai Xiaoyu had worked in the company before, so she naturally knew the identity and status of Mrs. Qin in front of her.

She was the previous chairman of the board, holding the power of life and death in the Qin Group. She was a person who could make the entire company tremble with just one stomp of her foot.

Thinking of this, Bai Xiaoyu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his palms, and his heart was beating so fast in his chest that it seemed like it was about to burst through his chest.

She tried to calm herself down and tried to hide her inner nervousness with a smile.

Mrs. Qin's voice was as cold as ice, and she spoke each word clearly, like a sledgehammer hitting Bai Xiaoyu on the other end of the phone.

"What is your relationship with my son? I don't want to know."

She narrowed her eyes slightly, her eyes revealing undisguised disgust, and her tone was unquestionable.

"From today on, you have nothing to do with him."

She paused, then continued, each word as sharp as a knife.

"Don't be so delusional. Our Qin family will not recognize any other woman besides Yan Lan.

My son and Yan Lan are a legitimate couple, and this is an unchangeable fact.

If you know what's good for you, stay away from him and don't make yourself miserable."

Madam Qin straightened her back, radiating the majesty of a superior.

Mrs. Qin hung up the phone without mercy. That decisive action seemed to cut off all contact between Bai Xiaoyu and the Qin family.

She slowly raised her eyes, and her eyes instantly changed from cold and sharp to full of love, and she looked at Yan Lan gently.

Yan Lan looked at Madam Qin and felt something strange in her eye sockets, as if countless bugs were crawling in them, making her feel hot and numb.

From childhood to adulthood, she rarely felt the care and protection from her elders, and most of the time she endured the ups and downs of life alone.

And today, Mrs. Qin stood so firmly by her side and spoke up for her.

Mrs. Qin gently took Yan Lan's hand and sat down aside.

The warmth from her palm came over with a soothing power.

She looked at Yan Lan with a firm and gentle gaze.

"Lanlan, don't worry, I will ask Qin Shi about this matter and give you an explanation.

If he really does something to hurt you, you should divorce him.

I will never let you suffer any injustice."

Having said that, Mrs. Qin paused slightly, a trace of fatigue and helplessness in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.

"After I die, my share of the Qin Dynasty legacy will be left to your children."

In the study, Shen Yunzhong stood up suddenly. Madam Qin actually wanted to change her will for Yan Lan!
