1497 Cheng Suâerâs Revenge (1)
âXinâer.â The wife of the City Lord shook her head at her daughter, indicating for her not to be impulsive.
Cheng Suâer obviously didnât come with good intentions. She was just waiting to catch them red-handed.
Even though Cheng Xinâer was impulsive, she wasnât stupid. She quickly understood that Cheng Suâer was provoking her on purpose. So, she shut her mouth obediently and didnât speak again.
Cheng Suâerâs gaze became extremely sharp. âCity Lordâs wife, Iâve already allowed my sister to speak, but you donât let her speak. Are you deliberately going against me?â
âMadam Su, youâve misunderstood. Xinâer is impulsive. Iâm just afraid that sheâll offend you.â The City Lordâs wife replied respectfully without any change in her expression.
However, Cheng Suâer wasnât satisfied with the City Lordâs wifeâs answer.
âThe wife of the City Lord is really protecting her daughter with all her might as usual.â Cheng Suâer said sarcastically, âI wonder how long you can protect her, City Lordâs wife?â
After hearing Cheng Suâerâs obvious threat, the City Lordâs wife finally couldnât maintain her calm on the surface. She suddenly looked up and met Cheng Suâerâs extremely cold gaze.
âMadam Su, I donât think Iâve done anything wrong to you. Please be kind to me, Madam Su.â For the sake of her daughter, the City Lordâs wife lowered her noble pride to the daughter of a concubine she used to look down on.
Even though she looked down on Cheng Suâer and her motherâs various thoughts and tricks, she had given them everything they deserved.
She could be said to have a clear conscience towards Cheng Suâer and her mother. She didnât let them down at all.
Seeing her mother humble herself, Cheng Xinâer felt extremely upset, but she still gritted her teeth and didnât say anything else.
Cheng Suâer was forcing her to say something she shouldnât say right now so that she had a reason to attack them.
So, she must endure it!
The City Lordâs wife lowered her head, making Cheng Suâer suddenly feel better. âCity Lordâs wife, are you begging me?â
The City Lordâs wife frowned slightly, but she still nodded. âYes, Iâm begging you, Madam Su.â
Cheng Suâer immediately smiled even more charmingly and brightly. However, she was still dissatisfied with the attitude of the City Lordâs wife.
âYou should have an attitude when youâre begging someone. From the looks of it, the City Lordâs wife doesnât seem to be sincere.â
Cheng Suâer picked up the teacup on the tea table again and gently stirred the tea leaves in the cup with the lid. She looked casual, as if she was waiting for something.
Hearing what Cheng Suâer meant, not only did Cheng Xinâer and her motherâs expressions change, but even Cheng Zhongâs expression didnât look any better, because the wife of the City Lord was his official wife. Cheng Suâer making things difficult for his official wife in front of him was equivalent to slapping his face!
âThe journey from the Imperial City to Zhuang Prefectural City is long and tiring. I believe youâre tired too, Madam Su. Why donât you go to the comfortable courtyard I arranged for you to rest first?â After saying that, Cheng Zhong didnât want to give Cheng Suâer a chance to refuse, so he called the maid guarding outside the hall.
âMadam Su, please.â After the two maids came in, Cheng Zhong made an inviting gesture to Madam Su, his meaning self-evident.
Cheng Suâer laughed in anger and had no intention of getting up and moving at all. âIâm not tired. I just want to get together with my father, his wife, and my sister and talk to them. Itâs been more than a year since we last met. Donât you miss me, your daughter?â
âOf course I missed you,â Cheng Zhong suppressed the gloominess in his heart and replied kindly.
