Yu Bolan frowned. “Nuanxue, what nonsense are you spouting?!”

“What? Who said Nuanxue is spouting nonsense?” Chen Yiqun stretched out her hand and gestured for Yu Nuanxue to sit beside her.

Ji Liunian did not even look at her. The servant beside her walked over. “Miss Ji, do you want some water or…?”

Ji Liunian said, “A cup of chrysanthemum tea.”

Yu Nuanxue’s derision intensified. “Poor people have poor taste—preferring to drink such cheap things.”

Ji Liunian said calmly, “It’s for you—it is good for the liver and eyes. Also, it can help to cool yourself.”

“Ji Liunian!” Yu Nuanxue stood up abruptly and splashed the chrysanthemum tea on her. “Why don’t you take a look at yourself? Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like that?”

“Nuanxue, what are you doing?!” Yu Bolan was furious and stood up immediately. “She’s your sister-in-law!”

“What sister-in-law? My brother doesn’t even like her! He would rather fool around with other women than have her! Who knows if she’s deliberately seducing my father behind his back!”

“Shut up!” Yu Bolan roared angrily. Just as he was about to say something, Ji Liunian gently brushed away the petals on her sideburns. Suddenly, she raised her hand and slapped Yu Nuanxue hard!

It was a very heavy slap. Yu Nuanxue fell to the side, her face swollen.

“How dare you slap me?! How dare you slap me?!” Yu Nuanxue had never been slapped since she was young. She was instantly furious.

“Why can’t I slap you?! I’m slapping an unfilial daughter like you! You’re not just humiliating me. You’re slandering your brother, Uncle Yu, and Uncle Yu’s relationship with Aunt Chen!”

“What right do you have to lecture me?!” Yu Nuanxue was not the type to admit defeat, so she immediately pounced.

“Stop it!” Yu Bolan roared as he stopped Yu Nuanxue’s hand. “We’ve been friends with the Ji family for many years. Back then, when our family’s business was in jeopardy, it was the Ji family who helped us out! The Ji family has done our family a great favor! It’s fine if you don’t know how to be grateful, but now you’re spouting nonsense! If I hear you spouting nonsense again in the future, don’t blame me for being angry!”

Despite being chastised, Yu Nuanxue still glared at Ji Liunian angrily. She suddenly snorted and turned her head away from her. Chen Yiqun also comforted his daughter and was too lazy to respond.

Yu Bolan gave a big sigh and his expression softened slightly as he said to Ji Liunian, “Liunian, don’t mind her. Nuanxue is younger than you and she’s still insensible. Your clothes are wet. Go up and change. Your clothes are in the cloakroom upstairs.”

It was not the first time she knew about Yu Nuanxue and Chen Yiqun’s hostility towards her. Chen Yiqun was her elder, so she did not dare to refute. Under normal circumstances, she would turn a blind eye to Yu Nuanxue’s sarcasm.

If it were not for Yu Bolan’s kindness to the Ji family—and the Ji family urgently needing the Yu family’s help now—she would not have been so tolerant of Nuanxue and Chen Yiqun.

Also, Yu Yichen…

After her engagement to Yu Yichen, Yu Bolan had prepared a guest room upstairs and a change of clothes for her, even though she had never moved into the Yu family’s house.

The Yu family kept clothes that were not commonly used in the cloakroom. When she opened the door, the clothes had already been sorted and put away properly. She had just found a suitable outfit for herself and had taken off her clothes when the door of the room was suddenly pushed open!
