“Hmph!” Liu Fengmei huffed heavily and stormed off.
Su Ge watched her retreating back, a radiant smile spreading across her face.
Chu Yihan’s aura had already calmed down, and he was now looking at Su Ge indifferently.
Su Ge had been smiling for a while before she noticed his gaze, and her smile immediately stiffened on her face, “Uh…that, I’m not, I just couldn’t hide it anymore, so…”
“Why did you speak up for me in front of the Old Master?”
If it was just to please him in order to attend tonight’s banquet, then she had already done enough.
There was really no need to speak up for him in front of the Old Master.
Chu Yihan’s face remained expressionless and cold.
“This…” Su Ge touched her chin, thinking about how to respond but couldn’t find a good reason, so she simply lifted her chin and looked earnestly at Chu Yihan, “So, are you touched?”
She didn’t really have a reason.
She just purely wanted to speak up for him.
Because in the entire Chu Family, only the Old Master truly cared about him.
But Chu Yihan was too aloof, indifferent to everyone, so she wanted to help foster the relationship between him and his grandfather.
Actually, he was quite filial to his grandfather, as could be seen from the incident at the Lotus Pond—only filial piety could breed fear; after all, with his status, what else in this world could he fear?
By helping him like this…
Would he feel somewhat touched in his heart?
Chu Yihan’s lips were tightly pursed.
Su Ge couldn’t capture any useful information from his deep eyes.
Never mind, he probably wouldn’t be touched.
It was good enough that he wasn’t growing more suspicious of her…
“I just feel that Xiao Si’s wife, she seems different from what you described.”
In the side house, Chu Tianrui flicked the ash from his cigarette, pondering as he spoke.
“Oh?
How is she different?” Wen Lixin came over with a cup of honey water, her belly slightly protruding after five months of pregnancy.
She wore a beige dress, looking elegantly beautiful, not gaining much weight during pregnancy, and maintaining a dignified air.
“You said Xiao Si’s wife really liked Lixuan, right?
But today, it seemed like she got along pretty well with Xiao Si.
She wasn’t opposing Xiao Si at every turn like the rumors suggested.
Could it be that she has fallen for Xiao Si?”
“Impossible!” Wen Lixin denied outright, “She has liked Lixuan since childhood; besides him, she couldn’t possibly like anyone else.
Getting along on the surface is not difficult; given Xiao Si’s character, to bring her to such a place, she would naturally make an effort.”
Wen Lixin finished speaking and took a sip of her honey water.
Chu Tianrui also extinguished his cigarette and nodded in agreement, “Indeed, if she doesn’t first gain Xiao Si’s trust, how could she earn her freedom?
Without freedom, how could she meet Lixuan and be of use to us?”
Wen Lixin raised an eyebrow looking at the smug smile on Chu Tianrui’s face, “Have you met her?”
“Just happened to bump into her, chatted a few words, and I casually mentioned Lixuan.
From her reaction, it seemed like she indeed cares a lot about Lixuan.”
That demeanor didn’t look fake.

It seems she really is deceiving Xiao Si.
“What else did you say?”
“I told her that we would help her, that she should just do whatever she wants.”
If she’s smart enough, she’ll know what to do.
Wen Lixin nodded, “Let’s not be hasty, let’s see when Lixuan meets her.”
Chu Yihan is not someone easy to deal with.
Chu Tianrui nodded, a sharp gleam flashing through his eyes.
