Chapter 1488: Self-Embarrassment (4)
Yan Chen had revealed his mother’s real intention. Thus, she was at a loss for words on how to defend herself.
She thought about it for a moment and sighed. "Let’s just say that I took the decision to get it settled myself. Now that I have announced it in front of everyone, and Wushuang is here with us as well... It is inappropriate to say that all this is only a joke. We should take the opportunity and make it real. Wushuang is such a beautiful woman who comes from a fine family. She is kind-hearted, gentle and knowledgeable. Moreover, our families have known each other for so long." She continued to emphasize how good Leng Wushuang was.
Yan Chen’s mother had talked about it so many times before. It was annoying.
"Is this why you tried so hard to get rid of Waihu?" Yan Chen interrupted her. He sounded melancholic.
Mrs. Yan did not know what to say, as Yan Chen had completely pointed out her hidden plot. Hesitantly, she denied his accusation. "Yan Chen, how could you say that? It is fine that outsiders do not know about Waihu’s life in our family, not you. She has the best house with the best living conditions. I even made her medicine when she was sick. You know about all these things, so why would you say that to hurt my feelings?"
"I only want the truth. I hope you can fulfill my wish." Yan Chen bowed to her.
She did not see it coming. He kept bringing the subject back. Mrs. Yan tried very hard to change the subject again but Gu Xijiu interrupted the conversation politely. "That is right, Mrs. Yan. We deserve to know the truth. Since all three of you are present today, why don’t we make things clear face to face? I hope that you will not change the subject again unless you are guilty."
