Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

”I remember, you love Pu’er tea the most.”

Feng Shulan placed a teapot on the tea set but didn’t pour tea for Yi Yilan.

She turned around, picked up a stack of freshly baked cookies, and said, ”I just made these, have a taste if you don’t mind.”

The outward display of hospitality, the enthusiasm in her hosting, Feng Shulan was impeccable, not allowing anyone to find fault.

This was her usual style and also the basic etiquette of a well-bred lady.

”Sister Feng, don’t trouble yourself, come sit down.”

Yi Yilan, slightly embarrassed, helped Feng Shulan to the sofa and said, ”I just came to visit, not to trouble you, Sister Feng. With you being so courteous, how can I bother you?”

What Qiu Xue did was known to everyone; if she could be oblivious, that would indeed be strange.

Saying this, Yi Yilan hurriedly started to pour the tea, ”Actually, I should have visited you earlier, but my health wasn’t good, so it was delayed. Today I finally got the chance, so I came over.”

Yi Yilan was extraordinarily skilled at building rapport.

Not giving Feng Shulan any room to speak, she continued on her own.

Feng Shulan sat gracefully on the sofa, but didn’t respond, simply taking a sip from her teacup.

She admitted, she was well-mannered, but it didn’t mean anyone could bully her or that she had no temper.

One must know, her daughter had already been bullied by Qiu Xue to that extent, if she could still tolerate it, then she would indeed be made of clay.

If she didn’t understand Gu Tong and know that the girl from the Qiu Family couldn’t really bully her, Feng Shulan wouldn’t have stayed calm until now.

Thinking of this, Feng Shulan couldn’t help but recall the time when she returned to her parent’s home, and Gu Tong asked her to contact her sister for help with something at the troupe.

Presumably, at that time, the girl must have already seen through Qiu Xue’s intentions.

”How is Qiu Xue? Why not bring her here to sit with us?”

Feng Shulan asked with a single sentence.

Yi Yilan’s smile completely froze. She coughed awkwardly and said, ”Don’t mention that girl, kids have unpredictable tempers, easily swayed into doing something outrageous.”

Unable to say the words outright, Yi Yilan explained indirectly.

They ultimately had to give the Gu Family an explanation for this matter, Yi Yilan was well aware.

”That girl isn’t all that bad!”

Ha, not bad, indeed quite something.

She even set her sights on her son-in-law.

”Sister Feng, you must be joking. She can’t possibly compare to your Gu girl, it’s like clouds and mud.”

Yi Yilan critiqued with a bit of frustration, slightly angry, ”That girl has a straightforward heart, no guile, and can’t withstand provocation. All she wishes to do is sing; originally, I intended for her to stay in the art class to develop, but now it seems entirely unrealistic.”

Yi Yilan spoke as if she wanted to transfer Qiu Xue, but in truth, the art class couldn’t accommodate Qiu Xue anymore.

Feng Shulan replied with a simple ’hmm,’ holding the teacup and taking another sip.

Yi Yilan observed secretly, noticing something amiss, and steeled herself to continue, ”I’m thinking, let her retire, leave Pinnacle Academy, focus on her singing without causing more trouble. You see, she’s just a young girl, doesn’t understand much, what can she possibly do at Pinnacle Academy? Blame it all on Old Qiu, for insisting on keeping his daughter there...”
