Chapter 688: 187: Breaking News! _3

“That’s not what I meant.” The Old Lady Shangguan continued: “Your brother and Daya are very happy together, and you, as a sister, should offer blessings, not create chaos.”

“I know.” Shangguan Furong replied.

Old Lady Shangguan went on: “And, I have to repeat, keep an eye on Lin Fang. You’re so stubborn, and it will be your downfall.”

Shangguan Furong laughed and said: “Mother, you’ve been saying this all the time. Have you ever considered my feelings? Lin Fang is my best friend. I trust her just as you trust Daya. How would you feel if I continuously spoke ill of Daya in front of you?”

Shangguan Furong and Lin Fang were very good friends now, and she didn’t believe Lin Fang would do anything to harm her.

Old Lady Shangguan sighed, “I’m just saying, whether you listen or not is up to you.”

Shangguan Furong originally planned to stay at the Shangguan Family until Ni Cuihua returned.

After all, Ni Cuihua still had the Ice Skin Jade to give her.

But she waited until the afternoon, and Ni Cuihua had not returned yet.

Shangguan Furong no longer had the patience to wait. She planned to play cards with the rich ladies.

Now that she had a membership card for Guose Tianxiang, she naturally went to the third floor of Guose Tianxiang to play cards.

Not far from the Shangguan household, Shangguan Furong ran into Lin Fang.

“Sister Furong, where are you going?”

“To play cards.” Shangguan Furong answered.

Lin Fang said with envy, “Having a loving husband is really different. Unlike me, I can only play on my rest days. Where would I find the time to play otherwise?”

Shangguan Furong laughed smugly, “So, it’s not only about finding a good husband for a woman but also having the ability to manage the family.”

Lin Fang nodded, “You’re right, Sister Furong. I’m envious of capable women like you. I’m simply not like that…”

Shangguan Furong patted Lin Fang’s hand, “These things can’t be forced.”

Lin Fang seemed envious on the surface but was scoffing inside.

What did Shangguan Furong have to be so smug about?

Did she know that Zhao Shen had already betrayed her?

It wouldn’t be long before Zhao Shen would discard Shangguan Furong like trash.

Lin Fang continued, “Sister Furong, can I accompany you to play cards and broaden my horizons?”

Shangguan Furong agreed without a second thought because Lin Fang made such a thoughtful request.

The two went to the VIP room on the third floor of Guose Tianxiang.

Lin Fang said, “Thanks to Sister Furong, it’s my first time in such a sophisticated place.”

Shangguan Furong turned around in surprise, “But isn’t the membership card from you?”

Lin Fang laughed a little, then said, “Sister Furong, how can I afford such an expensive membership card! Someone gave it to me too! With my status, if you weren’t with me, I wouldn’t be in such a place.”

“Only you, Sister Furong, can use this membership card.”

Lin Fang’s flattery made Shangguan Furong very happy.

As soon as they opened the door of the VIP room, Jia Zhenzhen, Zhao Yiyun, and another rich lady had already arrived.

Shangguan Furong introduced Lin Fang to everyone.

“Hello, sisters, I am Lin Fang. Please take care of me in the future.”

‘Take care of me in the future?’

That could be interesting.

The other three exchanged glances, all seeing confusion in each other’s eyes.

Lin Fang had excellent social skills, and through her flattery, she quickly became accepted within this inner circle.

That evening, Shangguan Furong brought Lin Fang back to the Zhao Family.

When Zhao Shen saw Lin Fang, he was slightly surprised and seemed somewhat unnatural.

This was not Lin Fang’s first time at the Zhao Family.

However, considering what had transpired between the two of them the night before, their encounter now was somewhat awkward.

“What are you waiting for? Go make some tea for Lin Fang.” Shangguan Furong rolled her eyes at Zhao Shen.

Shangguan Furong was deliberately showing off her status in the family in front of Lin Fang.

Little did she know, it’s crucial to save face for a man in front of outsiders.

Lin Fang swiftly took the teapot from Zhao Shen’s hands, her fingers brushing against his palm. She smiled and asked, “Why would we need Brother-in-law for this? I can do it myself. Sister Furong, do you like sugar in your tea?”

Shangguan Furong, who was accustomed to domineering and others’ compliance, failed to notice anything amiss, “No, I like pure green tea.”

“Alright.” Lin Fang went to make the tea.
