His words were too sharp, and every word poked into Gu Ruolin's dark thoughts. Gu Ruolin immediately retorted excitedly, "No, it's not what you said, I'm just afraid..."
"You are afraid. You are afraid that if An Xin is found, you will become an embarrassing existence like you are now." Si Chen interrupted her quibbles first, with a smile on his lips from beginning to end, "Your ambitions are all gone." It's written on your face. If I were you, I would hide it better and not rush out like this to let people see more clearly what kind of person you are."
"That's enough!" Mrs. Nishizawa frowned, with a look of exhaustion on her face, "Ruolin has already explained to me what Mr. Si said. I know how she is, and I don't need Mr. Si to educate me. After all, I am still Mr. Si. Sir, I hope Mr. Si will understand a little bit about what respect is."
The smile on Si Chen's lips gradually sank, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly. Gu Ruolin had seen his expression before, her heart trembled, and a feeling of uneasiness surged in her chest.
Mrs. Caesar was angry and didn't have those feelings, "Ruolin, let's go."
"Wait a minute." Si Chen called her.
Mrs. Nishizawa stopped, her brows furrowed even more, and she turned to look at him with obvious impatience, "Is there anything else, Mr. Si?"
Si Chen walked up to them condescendingly, his peach-blossom eyes locked on the angry Mrs. Xize, and said word by word, "There is one more question I want to ask Madam."
"..." Mrs. Nishizawa frowned fiercely, becoming more and more impatient, "Mr. Si has so many problems. Do young people have more problems? Go ahead, but I'll put the ugly words first. This is the last one. If you have any questions, please check Baidu. There are 100,000 answers.”
As if Si Chen didn't hear the sharp sarcasm in her tone, he raised his thin lips. His peach blossom eyes were like a deep well, able to see through human nature, "Are you jealous of An Xin, madam?"
"What did you say?" Mrs. Caesar suddenly changed her face and pretended to sneer, "I think you are delusional, and the more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes!"
"You defend this woman at all times, and even fall out with dad over her. Isn't it because you are jealous of dad's kindness to An Xin, so you are unwilling to prove that the children you raised are better than the children you gave birth to?"
Mrs. Nishizawa's mentality is actually easy to understand. She defended Gu Ruolin at the beginning, maybe it was just because Gu Ruolin grew up beside her. She has feelings even if she has a dog for twenty years, let alone a person! Gu Ruolin is also a person who is good at coaxing people with sweet words. Mrs. Nishizawa may have been coaxed by her at first. But Mrs. Nishizawa herself was able to marry Nishizawa and sit in this position for decades, so she couldn't be a fool. So as she gets further back, she should be able to see Gu Ruolin's true face more clearly.
But Mrs. Caesar acted uncharacteristically as if she couldn't see it, and became more and more protective of Gu Ruolin, to the point where she couldn't accept anyone saying a bad word about Gu Ruolin.
This kind of protection is not so much that she is protecting Gu Ruolin, but that she is protecting her own dignity.
She wanted to prove to Xi Zetian that she was more important than Lin Anxin!
In this case, she was not simply deceived by Gu Ruolin... Si Chen's dark eyes turned slightly cold, and he said to Mrs. Caesar, "I don't care what your psychology is, I advise auntie to remember what dad said. Otherwise, I will be the only one to take action. Considering that you are An Xin’s biological mother, I may not touch you, but it does not mean that I have no other way to make Auntie regret for the rest of her life!”
