Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight-Chapter 307: The Look at Lin Zhiyi Is Not Innocent

Sang Ran smiled at the sight of the approaching maid.

"We’re all old acquaintances. There’s no need for the main hall. Please ask them to the side hall instead, and prepare some tea and snacks along the way, so we can have a chat."

Although the side hall paled in comparison to the majestic and spacious main hall, it offered better privacy.

The maid nodded.

Sang Ran visited the restroom before heading to the side hall.

Upon entering, Ye Feifei immediately stood up impatiently.

"Xiao Ran, why have you only just arrived? The main hall was perfectly fine to sit in, yet you insist on making me come to this side hall."

Without acknowledging her, Sang Ran naturally sat at the head seat and took a sip of floral tea at her side.

After setting down her teacup, she finally looked up at Ye Feifei: "Feifei, when can you change this impetuous temperament of yours?"

"What... what do you mean?"

Ye Feifei looked at Sang Ran, not understanding.

Sang Ran didn’t explain.

But Wen Qing, who was beside her, understood it all too well.

From the switch to the side hall to the usually submissive Sang Ran taking the head seat instead of sitting beside her aunt as before, it was a clear show of authority.

It must be related to the gathering today.

Wen Qing thought for a moment and then pulled Ye Feifei to sit down.

She then chuckled lightly: "Xiao Ran, could there be some misunderstanding?"

Sang Ran no longer beat around the bush, furrowing her brows: "Aunt, it was you who sent Second Madam over today, wasn’t it?"

"Where did you get that idea? Her feet are on her body, how could she go wherever she pleases at my bidding?"

Wen Qing casually prodded at the fruit plate with a fruit fork, her tone particularly nonchalant. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Sang Ran held her tea, glanced at her, and spoke calmly: "That’s good to hear. But with the old man’s anger causing illness, my dad is definitely going to investigate thoroughly. In the future, you can’t order anyone from the Sang Family around anymore, just to avoid any misunderstanding."

A clatter.

The fork in Wen Qing’s hand dropped onto the plate.

A flash of malice passed through her eyes, but she suppressed it when looking at Sang Ran.

"Xiao Ran, what do you mean by that? Don’t you trust me?"

"Aunt, this is a decision made by my dad and my brother."

Gently placing down her teacup, Sang Ran’s tone was very gentle but the words she spoke were so weighty that even Wen Qing had no rebuttal.

Though the Wen Family may not compare to the Sang Family, Wen Qing was different.

A large reason for this was that her words carried weight in the Sang Family.

After this incident, it had drawn a line between her and the Sang Family.

Wen Qing grasped the armrest, still unable to calm her anger after a long while.

It was Ye Feifei who couldn’t contain herself and stood up.

"Xiao Ran, even if it’s President Wen who really did this, isn’t it for you? Who is Lin Zhiyi? She’s nothing but a bastard! If her mother hadn’t used some tricks to ingratiate herself with Second Young Master, could she be on equal footing with us? How does she deserve Mr. Sang? Besides, she’s also secretly been with Third Young Master..."

"Feifei! I am about to get married to Third Young Master, please stop making baseless claims." Sang Ran warned, "Whether you do this for me or for some other reason, I prefer not to ask."

She lifted her gaze, staring at them. Despite usually being delicate, she was, after all, the daughter of the Sang Family.

Furthermore, she was Gong Chen’s junior classmate.

Most of their university peers were heirs to various families.

If not for the car accident, she and Sang Li would have been the heirs to Sang Group together.

Her naivety doesn’t mean she’s brainless.

"Stop making things difficult for Zhiyi and the Second Madam in the future. Zhiyi is now with my brother, and she might even become my sister-in-law."

"What sister-in-law! Why does she deserve that! You know very well that I’ve liked Mr. Sang since high school!"

Ye Feifei stood up furiously, pacing anxiously in front of Sang Ran.

Sang Ran helplessly tried to persuade her: "Feifei, I’ve also created many opportunities for you and my brother, but he has clearly rejected you. Matters of the heart cannot be forced."

The more Ye Feifei listened, the angrier she became, blurting out: "Aren’t you also being forced? Even an outsider like me can see that Third Young Master’s gaze at Lin Zhiyi is not pure. I don’t believe you can’t see it. If you can marry the Third Young Master, why is it considered ’being forced’ when it comes to me?"

"My family and Mr. Sang’s are well-matched in social status, and our families have known each other for so many years, everything is out in the open. What do I lack compared to Lin Zhiyi?"

Upon hearing this, Sang Ran’s breath hitched, and her face rapidly turned pale.

Seeing this, Wen Qing did not stop Ye Feifei; instead, she continued to drink her tea calmly.

How dare that maid try to assert her authority in front of her.

All these years of caring for her seem wasted.

Letting Ye Feifei wake her up with the scolding might be a good thing. Nowadays, if you don’t fight or vie for things, one would really think pies fall from the sky?

It’s only because Lin Zhiyi is considering some moral principles.

Otherwise, if she truly agreed, even becoming Gong Chen’s mistress would be better off than Sang Ran as Third Madam.

Seeing Sang Ran’s complexion getting worse, Wen Qing quickly set down her teacup and stood up to walk to her side, to soothe her.

Wen Qing said with a bitter heart: "Xiao Ran, your little aunt wants to apologize to you first, it was indeed me who informed Liu He."

"I’ll admit, I have my selfish reasons and reluctance, but what Feifei said is also true."

"The relationship between Lin Zhiyi and Third Young Master is ambiguous. If she truly wanted to avoid Third Young Master, she should have honestly married an ordinary man. Why did she have to choose your brother?"

"If this continues, we’ll see each other all the time. What if she hooks up with Third Young Master again? What will you and your brother do then?"

"You and Sang Li are children I have cared for as they grew up; to me, you are my own children. Which mother doesn’t want her children to marry well or marry off well? If your mother were still alive, she would certainly do the same."

First came the admission of error, followed by a heartfelt outpouring.

In her heart, Sang Ran was touched by the gratitude for Wen Qing’s upbringing, or perhaps she softened.

"Little aunt, I don’t want it this way."

"Don’t worry, your little aunt will help you." Wen Qing’s lips curved up as she looked up and glanced at Ye Feifei.

Ye Feifei grabbed Sang Ran’s hand: "Xiao Ran, I’m sorry, I spoke out of turn just now. But you really can’t let Lin Zhiyi get away with this, otherwise she’ll think you’re afraid of her."

Sang Ran withdrew her hand and held her head, which was beginning to ache: "Give me some time to think."

"But..." Ye Feifei was not satisfied with such an answer.

"That’s enough, Feifei. Let Xiao Ran rest. We should head back first."

Wen Qing interrupted Ye Feifei, grabbing her and heading out.

Sang Ran watched the backs of the two, lips tightly pressed, without uttering a word.

After stepping outside.

Ye Feifei forcefully shook off Wen Qing’s hand, dissatisfied: "President Wen, Xiao Ran was about to agree if we continued our conversation. Why did you stop me from speaking?"

Wen Qing chuckled lightly, speaking without a care: "Did she object?"

"She... I see now!" Ye Feifei had a sudden realization, but then sighed again, "However, today’s plan didn’t succeed. Instead, it resulted in Mr. Sang publicly acknowledging Lin Zhiyi’s status. It won’t be so easy to take action against her in the future."

Wen Qing was unconcerned.

"Can Lin Zhiyi really avoid seeing Third Young Master forever? As long as they meet, we will always be able to grasp something against her. When that time comes, not only will Sang Li break up with her, but the Gong Family will also get rid of her."

"What if she doesn’t see him? Now Mr. Sang only has eyes for her, does she have the heart to do that?" Ye Feifei twisted her fingers, growing more agitated the more she thought about it.

"Then we’ll make it so she must see him." Wen Qing spoke profoundly, her eyes filled with intense malice.
