Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1067: Chapter 1053: Can You Shut Up?

”I also heard my sister say that you and Comrade Kang were once engaged but later broke it off because of my sister. Is that true?”

The weather was nice, and quite a few people were standing at their yard gates enjoying the sun. As Su Man spoke with Zhou Weimin, she intentionally raised her voice, naturally attracting a lot of people to look over at Kang Li, Su Man, and Zhou Weimin.

At that moment, Zhou Weimin’s face didn’t look very good, and he pressed his lips tightly without saying a word.

Su Qing knew something bad had happened and realized that Su Man had deliberately brought up the issue. Her face darkened slightly: ”Manman, what do you mean by this? If you don’t welcome us, just say so. There’s no need to embarrass your brother-in-law like this.”

She had naturally noticed Kang Li and at that moment regretted mentioning him during the New Year’s period while chatting with her brother Su Tao. She also saw Su Man eavesdropping as they talked and then smugly boasted how Zhou Weimin had gone to the Team Leader’s House with his family to break the engagement to marry her.

Undoubtedly, Su Qing intended to flaunt in front of Su Man, letting her know how charming she was, to the point that Zhou Weimin was willing to marry her, even though the Team Leader’s House offered the nationwide math and science top scorer as a match.

Going deeper, while flaunting her allure, she was also putting down Kang Li, the ”celebrity.”

”Sister, what are you talking about?”

Su Man looked innocent: ”I clearly heard you talking about it during the New Year at mom’s, with Taotao. And you seemed pretty happy when saying it, repeatedly emphasizing to Taotao and me how much brother-in-law liked you, and what he did for you...”

”Can you shut up?”

Watching Kang Li’s expression change, Su Qing couldn’t detect anything amiss, but she felt her face flush and noticed everyone around seemed to be watching her. After all, a man breaking off an engagement to marry her implied something negative about her character.

Because no one claps with one hand, if she hadn’t done something, how could a happily engaged couple end up breaking it off?

”Sister, are you feeling embarrassed? But I’m just stating the facts, so why don’t we hear what Comrade Kang has to say?”

Su Man didn’t just intend to embarrass Su Qing and Zhou Weimin but also wanted to ridicule Kang Li, so she eagerly brought him into the conversation.

Yet Kang Li remained indifferent, his gaze resting on the twins and Xiao Loh En, ignoring the exchange between Su Man and Su Qing.

”Looks like you’re just trying to stir up trouble!”

Su Qing shoved her son into Zhou Weimin’s arms and slapped Su Man: ”My husband and I came to visit with good intentions, and this is how you treat us, right at your gate, showing us up? Su Man, what do you think you are? To marry Comrade Wen, you took the marriage that was supposed to be mine—I’ve let it slide, went to the Northwest and worked for several years...”

”What’s going on here?”

Wen Siyuan came out from the house, his gaze falling on Su Qing and Zhou Weimin. He asked Su Man, ”Why aren’t you inviting your brother-in-law and sister in? What are you doing standing out here?”

Before stepping out of the house, Wen Siyuan had heard a word or two and frowned, feeling that Su Man was being quite thoughtless by exposing family matters in front of their house, allowing outsiders to laugh at them.

Suppressing his anger, Wen Siyuan invited Su Qing and her husband inside. However, Su Qing coldly replied, ”Your threshold is too high for us poor folks to cross.”

With that, Su Man took the gift bag from Zhou Weimin’s hand and said to him, ”Let’s go. Since we’re not welcome, there’s no need to humble ourselves and go in.”
