A misunderstanding?
It had to be something more than just a simple misunderstanding.
Yu Lili heard the words, and the look in her eyes deepened. She raised her eyes to match Ou Ming’s and upon seeing profound sincerity on his face, she nodded.
The number of spectators they had was increasing. Ou Ming blocked Yu Lili from view and followed Wen Fenglin into a room inside.
This was the resting lounge, and there were two art easels set up beside a table full of paint, color pencils, and markers.
The moment Wen Fenglin closed the door, Jiao Ziqing lost control. When she turned around and saw Ou Ming s.h.i.+elding Yu Lili, she was aggravated even more.
This rascal was crazy!
How did he get himself bewitched to this extent by such a vixen? How could such a woman ever be good enough for the Ou family? How could such a woman ever be good enough for Ou Ming?
Jiao Ziqing walked forward and yanked Ou Ming away. “Ou Ming, go home first. I have something to say to this young lady,” she growled.
This young lady…
There was nothing inappropriate with the use of such a term, but to Yu Lili’s ears, the words cut deep.
She faced Jiao Ziqing and realized this rich Madam couldn’t even be bothered to hide her dislike for her at all. The disdain and contempt evident in her eyes resembled that of Li De’s wife back then in the Capital.
No, Jiao Ziqing’s eyes conveyed even more disdain and contempt than the other woman’s did. Yu Lili was feeling really bad, but she maintained a façade of calmness on the surface.
“Mom, just say whatever you have to. There’s no need to dismiss me. I think you must have some misunderstanding toward Yu Lili…”
“Misunderstanding?” Jiao Ziqing looked up coldly. “There aren’t any misunderstandings! Xiao Ou, you’re too involved to see the situation clearly!”
What on earth was so good about this woman? She had no proper upbringing, no culture, and no connections to speak of! Was she going to seduce her son with just that pretty face?
With a flick of her wrist, she was able to put Shen Manting and Shen Luo’an in a bind. That was impressive indeed. But such an evil woman would never be allowed into their family!
Jiao Ziqing stared intently into Yu Lili’s eyes with an unspeakable sense of hatred and intolerance.
“Mom,” Ou Ming’s mood had deteriorated further, and he spoke in a low voice. “I know what I am doing. I’m not blinded by my involvement in this. I like her, and so I’m willing to be with her. Yu Lili is a very good lady. You must have some misunderstanding towards her. There are some things that I can tell you when we get home. I’ll explain it to you clearly at home.”
“There’s no need for that!” Jiao Ziqing declared frostily. “Wen Fenglin is my good friend. He’s not an outsider.” With that, she looked toward Wen Fenglin and said, “Fenglin, this is my son, Ou Ming.”
Because of Ou Ming’s accomplishments and reputation, Wen Fenglin had long heard of him before. He smiled and nodded as he stretched his hand out for a handshake. “The younger generation will soon surpa.s.s the older. I am Wen Fenglin. How do you do?”
“h.e.l.lo, Mr. Wen.” Ou Ming took his hand but released it very quickly.
“Mr. Wen? Call him Uncle Wen!” Jiao Ziqing demanded.
Ou Ming didn’t do as she said, and he turned to her with an expression that wasn’t exactly pleasant. “Mom, some things are better spoken in private. It’s not convenient to talk about her in public.”
“What’s inconvenient about this? Are you afraid that this woman will have all her evil deeds exposed?”
