Although Dong Ning was a little afraid of Mrs. Sheng's power, he still mustered up the courage to argue: "I just..."
She wanted to continue talking, but when she caught sight of Mrs. Sheng's cold and sharp eyes, she was instantly frozen, and the words were stuck in her throat and she could not spit them out.
Dong Ning shrank his shoulders, closed his mouth, and lowered his head guiltily, not daring to look at Old Mrs. Sheng.
"Haha, it seems that that dead old man Dong Wangliao really didn't educate his granddaughter well. When you are a guest, you should act like a guest. How is it appropriate to yell at the dinner table? You don't really regard the Sheng family as yours.
Are you home?"
Old Mrs. Sheng doesn't care about face at all. She is the queen of the house and has never bothered to use these secular rules to restrain her. Besides, in her opinion, this Dong Ning is not worthy of her precious grandson. Such a shrew's behavior is scolding the street.
How could he be worthy of being the lintel of their Sheng family?
In her eyes, only Chu Qingxue is worthy of her precious grandson. As for the others, they can stay where they are.
When Dong Ning heard this, her whole face was as pale as paper, and cold sweat was dripping on her forehead. She didn't expect that Old Mrs. Sheng would suddenly explode, let alone that she would say such words so straightforwardly, and she was so ashamed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
.
If I cried before because I was pretending to be seen by everyone present, then my tears now are definitely because Mrs. Sheng’s words hurt my heart.
She didn't expect that her grandmother, who she thought was gentle and virtuous, would say such harsh words, which shocked Dong Ning.
It was clear that the grandma of the Sheng family was very kind and kind to me when she was a child, and she would smile lovingly every time she saw her. Why did she suddenly turn against her now?
Old Mrs. Sheng's words were like a bomb, setting off huge waves in everyone's hearts, especially Mr. and Mrs. Sheng Yuan. Their faces were extremely embarrassed at this moment, and they were worried about whether they would not be able to successfully obtain the shares in the future.
"Grandma, don't be angry. I came back specifically to see you, just to make you happy." Chu Qingxue quickly stood up and took Old Mrs. Sheng's arm to act coquettishly, with a bright smile on her face, looking particularly well-behaved and sensible.
, perfectly interprets the image of a filial granddaughter-in-law.
"Humph!" Old Mrs. Sheng snorted, but her expression finally softened a lot.
Chu Qingxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When she saw Dong Ning staring at her with jealousy and envy, she sneered in her heart. She was as stupid as a pig.
"Old madam, this kid Dong Ning is really good-natured. Don't take it to heart, this girl is still young." Ruan Yun quickly smoothed things over, trying to defuse the tense atmosphere.
With this reconciliation, the originally tense atmosphere has eased a bit.
Sheng Yuyan, who was sitting on the side, looked at Dong Ning's deflated look and couldn't help but lower her head and smile. She disliked Dong Ning, a hypocritical woman with duplicity, the most.
She hated Chu Qingxue before, but now compared with Dong Ning, Chu Qingxue could not be better.
She is determined not to allow this woman Dong Ning to be her sister-in-law! Don’t even think about competing with her sister-in-law Qingxue for her brother!
Sheng Yuyan secretly glanced at Chu Qingxue and happened to see Chu Qingxue looking at her with a gentle smile.
She moved her eyes away in a panic, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, her face flushed, and she felt a strange feeling in her heart that she didn't know how to describe.
Why did this Chu Qingxue suddenly look at her with a smile? The two of them were obviously at each other's throats before...
Sheng Yuxuan, on the other hand, kept her head down while grabbing her rice the whole time, not daring to raise her head to look at the people around her.
She knew that she didn't dare to get involved in these matters. If she accidentally said the wrong thing, she was afraid of being raped by Sheng Yuanji again...
It was extremely quiet in the restaurant, except for the crisp sound of the clinking of bowls, chopsticks and porcelain, you could almost hear a pin drop.
Sheng Yuan put down his knife and fork, took a handkerchief and wiped his mouth. He looked at the clock and saw that it was already half past nine. He glanced at Old Mrs. Sheng and found that the old lady was sitting dignifiedly and elegantly drinking soup. He felt quietly relieved.
One breath.
"Nephew, the company has encountered such a big crisis recently. Have you figured out how to deal with it?" Sheng Yuan said with a low smile.
Mr. Sheng paused, raised his head, glanced around Sheng Yuan, and said calmly: "The Sheng Group has survived all the ups and downs over the years, how could it fall into the hands of a mob?"
Sheng Yuan's smile faltered, and he continued to smile: "But this time the other party is obviously well prepared, and the reputation of the Sheng family is also at stake."
Mentioning the reputation of the Sheng family, Chu Qingxue paused holding the knife and fork, raised her head and looked at Sheng Yuan, with a complicated light shining in her eyes.
Oh, as expected, there was no way he could avoid having his affairs with Gu Jue used as a quarrel here. Sheng Yuan was really good at planning.
Chu Qingxue gritted her teeth. She was afraid that her grandparents would hate her because of these things, and she was unwilling to disappoint her grandparents.
She took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to raise her head and looked at Sheng Yuan, and said frankly: "The pure will be pure and the turbid will be turbid. I believe that the Sheng family will not be blinded by an outsider and fall into misunderstandings."
Her words fell on Sheng Yanxuan's ears. His eyelids twitched slightly, and there were slight ripples in his heart. He turned his head and looked at Chu Qingxue. Was this sentence meant for him?
Chu Qingxue, you'd better not have any entanglement with Gu Jue, otherwise I won't let you go.
Let you never leave my side for a moment in this life!
There was a flash of possessiveness in Sheng Yanxuan's eyes, and the fingers holding the knife and fork gradually tightened.
"Oh, our Sheng family has always relied on strength in the shopping mall, and we have never lacked loyal ministers and good generals. I believe that the company's affairs will soon come to light. I believe that Qingxue is not the kind of woman who is easy-going. Sheng
Yuan, please be careful with your words and don't chill everyone's hearts." Old Mrs. Sheng said coldly with a gloomy face, glaring at Sheng Yuan with sharp eyes.
Sheng Yuan was speechless by Old Mrs. Sheng's words and felt depressed. He did not expect that Old Mrs. Sheng would refute his words in public.
You must know that Mrs. Sheng cares most about the face of the Sheng family, and now she actually defends Chu Qingxue...
"Haha, I didn't mean that. I'm just worried about the Shengjia Head Office. If you encounter any problems, Yanxuan, you don't have to feel inferior. Uncle, I will help you." Sheng Yuan secretly mocked Sheng Yanxuan for his failure this time.
After somersaulting, he held his head high and said proudly, "Although our company has only recently entered the top 100 in the world, we still have the experience accumulated in the group over the years. I can help you tide over the difficulties."
The more he talked, the more excited he became, as if he had a chance to win. He stared at Sheng Yanxuan, hoping to take this opportunity to step on him hard and make the previously aloof Sheng Yanxuan come to him.
Thinking of this, Sheng Yuan became even more excited, as if he had expected Sheng Yanxuan to kneel in front of him and beg him, he couldn't help but laugh.
