Yan Zhiqing sighed. "Sister Lu, you're just like that. You're too kind, so you're easily taken advantage of! Just treat it as being a companion for the two elders. Even if it's not for my brother, it's good to get to know them! "
Lu Weining seemed to hesitate for a moment before nodding. "Alright then."
"That's great." Yan Zhiqing clapped. "I'll find a chance to introduce you to them!"
Lin Chu still didn't know that Yan Zhiqing and Lu Weining were scheming against him. The next day at work, he went out for lunch with Zheng Yuntong and a few colleagues.
There was a new restaurant in Chengdu that was famous for its skewers. It was delicious but not expensive. Because it was newly opened, there was a gathering of likes on WeChat. If there were enough likes, there would be a 30% discount and some skewers.
Although it wasn't a lot of money, they were all earning their own living. They could obviously save some money, so no one would take advantage of it. Therefore, everyone was enthusiastically gathering likes. Even Lin Chu joined in the fun.
So this afternoon, everyone agreed to go together.
As soon as he walked out of the office building, Lin Chu was blocked.
It was a beautiful woman. Although he didn't know her actual age, she looked like she was in her forties. She had taken good care of herself. Although she was old, she only had light makeup on her face. Even her lipstick was red, making her look like an old white lotus.
From some of the details on the woman's face, Lin Chu could vaguely see some similarities. He could roughly guess the other party's identity.
Seeing the arrogant look on her face, sizing her up without even greeting her, Lin Chu sneered in his heart.
She nodded gracefully but didn't smile. She just said coldly, "Hello."
Since he guessed her identity, Lin Chu didn't plan on pleasing her.
Yan Beicheng hadn't gotten back what he had suffered in the past. This woman still owed Yan Beicheng's father's life. Although Lin Chu wouldn't go so far as to say that on Yan Beicheng's behalf, he didn't give her any face.
Jiang Changdai pursed her lips unhappily. Lin Chu didn't want to get involved with her, but he wanted to know what she wanted, so he said to Zheng Yuntong and the others, "You guys go first. I'll come find you later."
Zheng Yuntong looked at Jiang Changdai and nodded. "Call us if you need anything."
"Don't worry." Lin Chu smiled gently and warmly. However, when he turned to look at Jiang Changdai, his expression turned cold again.
Jiang Changdai was infuriated. She had seen people say one thing in front of others and another behind their backs, but she had never seen someone change their attitude so quickly!
She was so polite to her colleagues, but she was so cold to her. She didn't know who she was. Once she revealed her identity, she would cry!
Originally, Jiang Changdai was still thinking of some reason to pick on Lin Chu. She didn't expect Lin Chu to be so awesome. He behaved so badly as soon as they met.
At the same time, Jiang Changdai believed Yan Zhiqing's words even more. This Lin Chu was not a good person. He was not worthy of Yan Beicheng. Lu Weining was still better. Usually in Ning City, Lu Weining was always in front of her to make her happy. Lu Weining was especially respectful and filial when she saw her, unlike Lin Chu.
Yan Beicheng probably didn't know that she was so rude in private.
Seeing that Lin Chu's colleagues had left, Jiang Changdai said with a cold expression, "You're Lin Chu, right?"
Lin Chu sneered in his heart. Who was this attitude for?
There was a faint mocking smile at the corner of his mouth. "You don't even know who I am, and you're standing in front of me, blocking my way and not letting me go?"
Jiang Changdai was choked by Lin Chu's rudeness. The anger in her chest rose even higher. She found Lin Chu more and more unpleasing to the eye.
However, she had to reply to Lin Chu's mockery because Lin Chu had already said, "If you're blocking the wrong person, then I'll leave first."
Lin Chu gave a perfunctory smile and was really about to turn around and leave.
Jiang Changdai was also anxious. She said unhappily, "Yes, I know you're Lin Chu."
Only then did Lin Chu stop and remain silent. He didn't plan to speak anymore.
Jiang Changdai coldly looked at Lin Chu. She saw that Lin Chu was wearing an ordinary light blue shirt, a tassel shawl, and a pair of light blue jeans. She was wearing a fashionable and low-key dress, but Jiang Changdai felt that Lin Chu was too stingy. She didn't have any famous brands on her body. Everything she wore was just a few hundred yuan. How could she be as dignified as Lu Weining?
"I'm Beicheng's mother." Jiang Changdai raised her chin slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled up proudly.
She felt that Lin Chu should be afraid and regretting it now!
He was so rude to her just now. Now that he heard her identity, she didn't know how scared he would be.
Since she wanted to be with Yan Beicheng, shouldn't she coax her and treat her like a mother-in-law?
In particular, Lin Chu didn't even have a family. He was alone. It could be said that he didn't have any support at all. Even if he quarreled with his husband, he didn't have a family to go back to. Wouldn't he have to coax her well?
However, Lin Chu made an exaggerated expression as if he had suddenly realized something. He nodded and looked as if he had heard a lot about her. He said, "So it's Ms. Jiang."
There wasn't any emotion, but Jiang Changdai still felt that she heard the mockery in it.
Her expression became even uglier, and she said coldly, "I have some things I want to talk to Miss Lin about."
Lin Chu nodded. Since he let Zheng Yuntong and the others leave first, he had already made this plan.
However, they still didn't go to a restaurant. They just found a coffee shop, not the one below the company.
After the incident with Lu Weining last time, the staff probably already had a deep impression of her. It wasn't appropriate to go this time.
Because this was the business district, most people liked to go to these places to talk about business, so there was no shortage of quiet and romantic coffee shops.
They didn't walk far before they found another one.
Jiang Changdai was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Lin Chu to pick a coffee shop.
It would have been fine if it was any other time, but it happened to be lunch break time. Obviously, Lin Chu didn't plan to chat with her much.
Jiang Changdai became more and more unhappy. She followed behind Lin Chu and found a booth in the corner to sit down. Jiang Changdai didn't like to drink coffee, so she ordered a cup of black tea.
In Lin Chu's eyes, she really had the same style as Lu Weining. They didn't seem like mother and daughter, but better than mother and daughter.
Lin Chu still didn't ask for anything. He only drank water and waited to eat skewers in a while.
Jiang Changdai looked at him coldly, but she felt that Lin Chu was petty. He showed everything he didn't like on his face. He didn't even bother to do something beautiful. It was really inferior.
However, she didn't expect Lin Chu to speak first. "Originally, Beicheng should have brought me to see Madam Jiang first, but I didn't expect that Madam Jiang couldn't wait and came first."
No one knew if he was mocking Yan Beicheng for not taking Jiang Changdai seriously and not bringing Lin Chu to visit his mother after such a long time, or mocking Jiang Changdai for not being able to wait for Lin Chu to come to her. He was really not reserved and it was beneath his status.
Or maybe it was both.
In short, Jiang Changdai had a stomach full of anger.
Jiang Changdai narrowed her eyes. "Miss Lin, I'm your elder and Beicheng's mother. It's not appropriate for you to call me that, right?"
Lin Chu smiled slightly. "I heard Beicheng mention Madam Jiang before."
Jiang Changdai's eyelids twitched. Seeing the thick mockery on Lin Chu's face, she knew that Lin Chu knew about what happened back then.
She thought to herself, How could Yan Beicheng be so inconsiderate to tell an outsider about his scandal?
Seeing the anger flashing in Jiang Changdai's eyes, Lin Chu sneered in his heart. She also knew that she did something shameful back then and was afraid of others finding out? What did she do earlier!?
Thinking about how her father-in-law, whom she had no chance to meet, died so unjustly, she was so angry, let alone Yan Beicheng. Jiang Changdai actually had the face to come over and put on the airs of a mother-in-law who was not satisfied with her daughter-in-law. How ridiculous!
"Looking at Madam Jiang's attitude today, I'm afraid you won't be willing to call me Auntie." Lin Chu smiled faintly and casually raised his cup to drink water.
"Zhiqing was right. You are really good at pretending." Jiang Changdai narrowed her eyes and said angrily.
Lin Chu understood and looked at the time. She was in a hurry to eat, so he looked at Jiang Changdai. "Madam Jiang, why are you looking for me? It's already so late. Don't delay your meal. "
Jiang Changdai's eyes widened in anger. Wasn't he urging her to hurry up and say what she wanted to say?
Jiang Changdai was filled with anger. She originally wanted to be patient and persuade Lin Chu, but after seeing Lin Chu, she decided to directly give an order. "I don't like you. Break up with Beicheng. Don't embarrass yourself and make Beicheng a joke."
