“Su Yan, don’t you have any manners? Auntie Zhong is speaking to you. Although you and Brother Xiao Zhou are divorced, Auntie Zhong is still an elder. Is this the kind of attitude you should be giving her?” Seeing that Su Yan had no intention of replying, Guan Yutong scolded her.
“Tsk tsk tsk, Miss Guan, did the water enter your brain the last time you fell into the water? Or was the last lesson not enough?” Su Yan pursed her lips and smiled.
Guan Yutong’s face darkened. The previous incident had made her lose face in front of Wei Zhou, so she did not dare to look for him for the past few days. Especially after she learned that Wei Zhou had witnessed the whole process, she felt a little conscience-stricken.
“Long time no see, Old Lady Wei. How are your teeth recently?” Su Yan asked in a lazy tone as she looked at Zhong Cuiping with a halfhearted smile.!!
Zhong Cuiping almost fainted hearing the words “Old Lady Wei”. She never thought that Su Yan would dare to talk to her like that.
“Hmph, thanks to you, I won’t be dying anytime soon. I really can’t imagine that you were such a person if I hadn’t witnessed it with my own eyes. Lacking discipline and absolutely no manners, it is no wonder my son didn’t even look at you even after marrying you for three years,” Zhong Cuiping reprimanded coldly.
“Old Lady Wei, I’m not your daughter-in-law anymore, and I have nothing to do with the Wei Family, so don’t use the tone of an elder to educate me. Also, I was the one who proposed the divorce first. Please get that right. I guess it is true that the older you get, the more muddle-headed you become, huh,” Su Yan said lightly as she glanced at her.
Zhong Cuiping was about to retort when Tang Yitong walked out of the fitting room. She was wearing a new set of clothes. When she saw Zhong Cuiping and Guan Yutong, the smile on her face disappeared.
“Where’s the store manager? Didn’t you say that I’m the only one your store will be serving today? Why are there two people here?” Tang Yitong looked at the store manager and asked coldly.
The store manager said apologetically, “Miss Tang, I’m sorry. It’s our negligence. We’ve already put up the sign that we’re closed to the public, but we still couldn’t stop these two people from entering.”
Both the store manager and the store staff were speechless. They had never seen anyone like Zhong Cuiping and Guan Yutong who just forced their way into a closed store. It was simply unreasonable.
“I don’t know them. Please ask them to leave immediately. Don’t disturb me while I’m buying clothes!” Tang Yitong wore an unsightly expression as ordered the shop assistant.
The store manager and the two shop assistants looked at each other and hurriedly pushed Zhong Cuiping and Guan Yutong out. They only knew Tang Yitong and Su Yan and did not know who Zhong Cuiping and Guan Yutong were. Naturally, they took Tang Yitong’s side.
“I’m sorry. Miss Tang has reserved the entire store today and we will only be serving her. If the two of you want to buy clothes, please come back another day.” The store manager said as he chased them out.
Zhong Cuiping was furious and slapped the store manager in the face. She scolded angrily, “Insolent fool! Who do you think you are? How dare you push me? And the both of you, get out of the way!”
The two employees didn’t dare to go forward seeing that the store manager was slapped. They could only stare at Zhong Cuiping with a look of common hatred. They were just employees of a high-end custom-made clothing store. Although the title sounded very fancy, they were merely employees. They didn’t dare to say anything on seeing that Zhong Cuiping was wearing expensive jewelry and carrying a branded bag.
“Reserved the entire store? You are just a mere actress. How dare you act so arrogantly. Do you believe that with just a phone call from my son, you can lose your career in the entertainment industry?” Zhong Cuiping threatened as she glared at Tang Yitong.
Upon hearing these words, Tang Yitong was so angry that she laughed. “Old demon, I really don’t believe it. If you have that ability, feel free to get that blockhead son of yours to make a phone call. If he can make me lose my career in the entertainment industry, I will personally come to your door and kowtow to apologize!”
Zhong Cuiping was extremely enraged when she was addressed as an “old demon”. Her nostrils flared with anger. She wanted nothing more than to go up and slap Tang Yitong. Ever since the rise of the Wei Family, this was the first time someone had dared to scold her in her face.
“Good, good, good. Birds of a feather flock together. No wonder you became friends with Su Yan. You have no upbringing. Just like her,” Zhong Cuiping scolded.
“Hehe, it’s amusing. It really feels uncomfortable hearing you talk about things like upbringing. You’re an old demon. You’re not even human. Is there a need to be polite with you?” Tang Yitong sneered.
The pampered lifestyle in the Wei Family made Zhong Cuiping think that no one dared to offend her. In addition, Su Yan had never retaliated in the past three years. This made Zhong Cuiping think that she was always right. When she met a tough person like Tang Yitong today, she was so angry that her head was about to split open.
To put it bluntly, over the years, Zhong Cuiping had always bullied others, especially Su Yan. When suddenly met with someone like Tang Yitong who did not give in to her, her defenses were immediately broken.
“Hah, Su Yan. You really did not let me down. You even make friends with someone who wasn’t raised right by their mother. It’s a good thing that you tactfully left the Wei Family. Otherwise, our Wei Family’s reputation would have been ruined by you..” Zhong Cuiping couldn’t outtalk Tang Yitong, so she directed her attacks at Su Yan.
