1555 Cheng Suâerâs Abnormality (1)
Before they reached the place where the banquet was held, a maid walked over. After bowing to Cheng Zhong and the others, she carefully lowered her voice and said to the servant, âHelper Brother, can we talk in private?â
The servant recognized that the maid was Cheng Suâerâs subordinate and thought that Cheng Suâer wanted to find trouble with the Cheng family. He couldnât help looking troubled.
Even though Cheng Suâer was still doted on, Cheng Xinâerâs current identity was Liang Yingjunâs fiancĂ©e. She wasnât someone he, a servant, could afford to offend.
Seeing the servantâs concerns, the maid stuffed a brocade bag into the servantâs arms.
âDonât worry, my mistress just wants to chat with the City Lordâs wife and her daughter. I guarantee nothing will go wrong.â
Squeezing the weight in the brocade bag, a hint of greed flashed through the servantâs eyes, but he said, âI definitely wouldnât dare to take matters into my own hands. However, you can ask the City Lordâs wife and Second Miss Cheng for their opinions yourself.â
The servant obviously wanted to take advantage of her, but he didnât want to get himself involved.
The maidâs expression changed slightly, but thinking of Cheng Suâerâs repeated instructions, she still braced herself and went forward to invite the City Lordâs wife to Cheng Suâerâs courtyard with Cheng Xinâer.
âNo.â Cheng Xinâer rejected her without thinking.
âSecond Miss Cheng, my wife really wants to invite you to meet the City Lordâs wife.â The maidservant was anxious and begged.
Cheng Xinâer didnât believe it at all. âIf sheâs sincere, she should have come out to invite you herself, not send a maid like you.â
In Cheng Xinâerâs heart, Cheng Suâer was a poisonous snake that couldnât be warmed.
One moment, she was smiling, and the next moment, she might bite her master back.
So, she didnât like the excuse of getting together and talking about family matters at all.
âSecond Miss Cheng, my mistressâŠâ
âSister, youâre right. I didnât think it through. I should have come to invite you myself.â Before the maid finished speaking, a gentle voice suddenly sounded from the side.
The few of them looked over and saw Cheng Suâer, who was wearing thick makeup and a gorgeous outfit, walking towards them slowly with a smile.
âGreetings, Madam Su.â
Even though Cheng Zhong resented his daughter in his mind for embarrassing him as a father, he still had to put on an act because of her identity.
The City Lordâs wife also wanted to bow, but Cheng Suâer stopped her first.
âMadam, thereâs no need to be so polite.â
Cheng Suâer held the hand of the City Lordâs wife and showed a friendly smile.
The City Lordâs wife looked at her indifferently and retracted her hand without a trace.
Feeling the resistance of the City Lordâs wife towards her, a bitter smile appeared on Cheng Suâerâs face.
âMadam, Sister, I really want to invite you. Can you give me a chance to make up for it?â Cheng Suâer said weakly with a hint of pleading.
Cheng Suâerâs abnormality made the City Lordâs wife frown slightly. Before she said anything, a slightly evil voice entered their ears.
âHaha, I was wondering why City Lord Cheng wasnât here yet. It turns out that heâs already here.â
Seeing Duanmu Chun walking over from afar, the three members of the Cheng family bowed respectfully.
âGreetings, Your Highness.â
Duanmu Chun waved his hand, indicating that they didnât have to be so polite. He continued, âSuâer often mentions the City Lordâs wife and Second Miss Cheng to me and even said that she misses them very much. See, I took advantage of this celebratory banquet to ask City Lord Cheng to bring the two of you here so that you can meet Suâer and talk to her.â
