Chapter 150
[The reason for her interference was that her son's previous girlfriends all had various problems. She would use her connections to investigate and quickly uncover everything, worried that her son would be led astray. So she would force her son to break up, and her son, who had grown up under his strict mother's control, naturally didn't dare to defy her.]
Qin Family: Loving one's child is understandable, but calling her an 'evil mother-in-law' is going too far. After all, she's not just driving people away based on her own preferences, but because she's actually uncovered issues.
[However... her son doesn't need to be led astray. A bad seed will naturally turn bad as it grows. Fortunately, Sun Man doesn't have a love-addled brain and escaped quickly, otherwise I might have really been unable to resist meddling with another couple.]
Qin Family: A bad seed? That mama's boy?
Qin Rong was particularly shocked, after all, she had once shipped those two!
Teacher Lu's son is called Lang Zhe, a rapper with few listenable songs, but who gained quite a bit of fame due to his mother and an ex-girlfriend. Adding to that his inheritance of his mother's good genes, he's truly good-looking, with a bunch of blind fangirls.
When Sun Man was with Lang Zhe, paparazzi caught many scenes of their loving interactions, and for a time, the two were so sweet that netizens were screaming with delight.
Especially after one of Lang Zhe's performances, when he rushed off stage to lift Sun Man and spin her around. It seemed Sun Man had originally been unable to make it but managed to come after all, making him very excited. Regardless of the setting, he hugged her and called her "sister," acting coquettishly.
At that time, netizens joked that Lang Zhe was lucky, spoiled by his mother at home and by his wife outside.
Judging from Sun Man's expressions captured at the time, she also seemed very invested in the relationship.
Moreover, Lang Zhe didn't have any negative rumors exposed online.
Even Qin Zhao, an insider in the industry, hadn't heard much, only knowing that Lang Zhe's music was just for his own amusement, not making much money, and that his basic living expenses were mostly covered by his family, possibly even relying on his girlfriend at times. While this might be embarrassing, it doesn't rise to the level of being a "bad seed."
Moreover, when Sun Man broke up with him, she never exposed any bad things about her ex-boyfriend, only saying they broke up due to incompatible personalities. So outsiders were also unclear about the reason for their breakup.
The Qin Family's curiosity was piqued, very interested in knowing how Lang Zhe had turned bad.
But Ji Fei had lost interest in their affairs since Sun Man had completely dumped the scumbag.
Just then, Qin's Mom's phone suddenly rang. When she saw the caller's name, her expression became somewhat peculiar.
Qin's Father glanced at it and immediately frowned.
After answering, Qin's Mom gave a cool greeting and then immediately furrowed her brow, saying, "What? You're coming to visit right away?"
Everyone was startled to hear this. It was already evening, who would suddenly come visiting? It seemed a bit impolite.
But soon, Qin's Mom glanced at Qin Zhao and Ji Fei in surprise, saying, "You want to see Qin Zhao and Ji Fei? To discuss the next episode of the show?"
Qin's Mom covered the phone and indicated with her eyes that if they didn't want to meet, she would find an excuse to refuse.
But at this moment, Qin's Father suddenly said, "Your childhood playmate? Let her come!"
The atmosphere among the Qin Family immediately changed, as if a battle was about to begin. After the phone call ended, everyone except Ji Fei started bustling about.
Qin Yan and Qin Rong pulled Qin's Mom to the makeup room. There wasn't time to call the makeup team, but fortunately, Qin Rong studied painting and had impeccable aesthetics.
Qin's Father and Qin Zhao started searching for the family's collection of jewelry and valuables.
Finally, Qin Xian also got up to find the butler and housekeeper to arrange for receiving the guest.
Ji Fei only then belatedly dug up some information from the depths of her memory.
Due to their families' long-standing relationship, Qin's Mom had a childhood playmate she had known for many years. Qin's Mom was beautiful and accomplished, so she had always been the target of the other's jealousy. Every time they met, there would be a round of comparisons, and if given the chance, nothing good would come out of her mouth, finding various opportunities to mock.
Qin's Mom wasn't the type to enjoy fighting, so she would often be very upset but couldn't teach the other a lesson because their families were old friends. She could only try to calm herself down and not stoop to the other's level.
The Qin Family had always been low-key, and their attire when going out didn't reveal that they were super wealthy, so they were often caught off guard by the other party's mockery about jewelry and handbags.
The other family members had encountered this a few times and were all holding back their anger.
As the Qin Family became more and more successful, the other party basically stopped appearing before Qin's Mom.
Unexpectedly, this time she was coming on her own initiative, so they must support Qin's Mom. That's why everyone became so active.
Usually, Qin's Mom was very good to Ji Fei, so Ji Fei also wanted to help, but there seemed to be nothing left for her to do, so she could only obediently keep them company.
However, Qin's Mom felt uncomfortable with all the arrangements, "There's no need, I've never bothered with her before. That kind of low-level comparison is meaningless. Don't I know better than anyone how well I'm living?"
Looking at her whole family busying themselves for her, how could she possibly be proven to be living worse than others by that kind of comparison?
She was happy.
But the rest of the Qin Family wouldn't have it, insisting on fighting for her honor.
Looking at the auction house collectibles and jewelry placed before her, with everyone trying to make her wear it all, she finally couldn't take it anymore.
At Qin's Mom's insistence, she only chose to wear a jadeite necklace of imperial green, sitting elegantly in the living room, both low-key and luxurious.
Seeing everyone sitting around eagerly, Qin's Mom couldn't help but say, "What you should be thinking about now is why she's coming? How did it get connected to Ji Fei and Qin Zhao's show?"
Only then did everyone react, oh yes, what was she coming for?
Soon, the sound of a car was heard, and the butler quickly led in a wealthy-looking woman.
As soon as she entered, they saw the huge pearl necklace wrapped three times around her neck.
She had indeed come prepared. Even Ji Fei, who wasn't sensitive to jewelry, had seen a video about this pearl necklace. It was said to have been auctioned for a sky-high price of 100 million at the last auction.
This time, Qin's Mom's jewelry was slightly inferior.
The Qin Family immediately felt regretful, blaming themselves for not habitually participating in such luxury goods auctions. After all, they truly weren't interested, preferring to do their own things as a family.
"Long time no see." When greeting, the other party obviously looked at Qin's Mom's necklace, the corners of her mouth curling up to the sky, clearly very pleased with herself.
Qin's Mom stood up, still graceful and proper. Sensing the disappointment of her family around her, Qin's Mom smiled and said, "Oh yes, this is the first time we've met since your divorce. Wow, your pearl necklace is really beautiful, did you get it in the divorce settlement?"
The guest's expression twisted.
The Qin Family looked at Qin's Mom in astonishment.
Ji Fei: [Who said my Qin's Mom couldn't win in a fight! One sentence for the kill!]
Although very angry, the guest still sat down.
Ji Fei also gradually recalled her name, and when matched with the face before her, she could immediately gossip.
Suddenly, Ji Fei discovered the key point.
[Damn? What kind of fate does Lang Zhe have, to actually be her godson! Relying on women his whole life.]
Everyone was shocked, there was actually this kind of relationship?
They saw the other party had already regained her composure, smiling as she touched the pearl necklace on her neck, habitually showing off, then said: "By the way, I came this time for my godson Lang Zhe's matter. I hope that in your next competition, you can find a way to make Sun Man get out of the entertainment industry!"
