Chapter 688 - 691: The Real Deal Arrives
Even with a five-centimeter high heel, standing next to Jiang Ran, she’s still half a head shorter than Jiang Ran.
And that’s because Jiang Ran is wearing flat shoes.
If Jiang Ran were to wear heels, she wouldn’t just be half a head taller, she’d be a whole head taller.
At this moment, Xu Yufen could only slightly tilt her head up to look at Jiang Ran, a feeling she clearly disliked, so she frowned and took two steps back.
It’s unclear what she was thinking, or maybe she forgot she had just stepped onto the stair.
After taking two steps back, she staggered, almost falling off the stairs.
Xu Yufen was startled, flailing her arms wildly, and it took her quite a while to steady herself.
Even so, she was frightened, her face pale, breathing heavily.
Even then, Xu Yufen didn’t forget to glare at Jiang Ran.
After being glared at by Xu Yufen, Jiang Ran felt completely baffled.
Xu Yufen herself didn’t stand firm and didn’t watch her step, almost falling, what did it have to do with her?
Why did Xu Yufen’s reaction seem as if she blamed Jiang Ran for it?
Although Jiang Ran was puzzled, she didn’t dwell on it.
After all, Xu Yufen is a rather peculiar person.
Her reacting like this wasn’t strange at all.
Xu Yufen glared at Jiang Ran, but seeing Jiang Ran’s calm expression, she couldn’t continue glaring.
"Where’s your mom? I’m here today to return all her ragged clothes and the money for meals and lodging."
When she said this, Xu Yufen deliberately lifted her chin.
Jiang Ran nodded and said to Pei Shanshan beside her, "Shanshan, go call mom over."
Pei Shanshan agreed and quickly ran inside.
Watching Pei Shanshan leave, Xu Yufen frowned, "What do you mean? Not letting me in?"
Jiang Ran smiled, "Aren’t you rather reluctant to come in too? Now that you’ve moved to a bigger house, how would you fancy our small yard, right?"
"What you said is indeed correct." Xu Yufen nodded.
Seeing Xu Yufen nod, Jiang Ran knew she hadn’t caught the sarcasm in her words.
Since she didn’t understand, Jiang Ran of course wouldn’t explain it to her.
Otherwise, she would certainly start making a fuss again.
After waiting for a short while, Wang Cuilan and Pei Shanshan came out from the living room one after the other, walking quickly, soon reaching the doorway.
Seeing Wang Cuilan arrive, Xu Yufen shifted her gaze to her.
Compared to Wang Cuilan, Jiang Ran naturally wasn’t as important.
Jiang Ran, after all, is just a younger generation and has only known her for a few days.
The reason Xu Yufen didn’t like Jiang Ran was precisely because she was Wang Cuilan’s daughter-in-law.
If it weren’t for that connection, she wouldn’t care about Jiang Ran.
Now that Wang Cuilan, the real person involved, had appeared, naturally she no longer paid attention to Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran also understood this and made no attempt to assert her presence.
Jiang Ran quietly moved next to Wang Cuilan, constantly observing her, preventing Xu Yufen from doing anything in her agitation.
Although she felt Xu Yufen, wearing high heels now, posed little threat.
Yet, no matter what, it is better to be prepared for any situation.
Otherwise, if something really happened, it would be too late for regrets.
