Chapter 959 I Must Take Care of My Man
Although she often mingled in social scenes, she was naturally equipped to handle herself comfortably and even turn the tables when necessary.
Shen Yilan smiled and began, "Mrs. Di, you might be overthinking things. I never intended to disrupt the affection between you and your husband. It’s all your wild guesses. Seeing a woman and assuming she’s a rival, always ready to clash, I wonder if you ever get tired? Does Senior Mingjue ever get tired?"
Gu Qibao laughed out loud, still as straightforward in her response, "Tired? Why should I be tired? My husband is my man, he belongs to me, do you understand? What right does anyone else have to interfere?
What’s mine is mine, and I will defend my rights. Why shouldn’t I stop other women from whispering sweet nothings to my husband? Don’t I have that right? Miss Shen, let me tell you, I decide my man’s matters. It’s not up to anyone else to interject here, so you might as well save your breath.
Your beloved Senior Mingjue is just fine. He actually likes it when I control him, preventing him from talking to other women. What’s it to you if you have an issue with that?"
Gu Qibao’s words left Shen Yilan flushed with embarrassment, and then pale with defeat.
She seemed like a delicate, vulnerable girl, but who knew she could be so cutting when it came to confrontations?
Although Shen Yilan was unconvinced, what Gu Qibao said made sense.
This is exactly how a legitimate wife behaves, my man is my responsibility, none of your business!
However, Shen Yilan hadn’t expected Gu Qibao to be so fierce. In situations like this, even if someone was right, they should still pretend to be gracious and generous. Otherwise, how could they win a man’s affection?
Turns out this kid is a real tigress.
Shen Yilan felt a rush of schadenfreude, thinking, which man could stand this kind of woman?
After she had her say, Gu Qibao didn’t even want to bother with Shen Yilan anymore since she had made herself quite clear.
As she was about to leave, Shen Yilan couldn’t resist saying, "Mrs. Di, you really have a good sense of humor."
After finishing her sentence, she even covered her mouth and chuckled.
Gu Qibao was grossed out, her eyebrows furrowing as she thought about unleashing a roar at her, how funny, you must be joking, crazy!
Gu Qibao snorted coldly, overall unwilling to engage further with her, uninterested in talking to a lunatic.
The highest form of disdain is not even dignifying a response, treating it purely as a fart.
No, even farting pollutes the air, it’s not even worth that.
Seeing her silence and her intention to leave, Shen Yilan turned pale, feeling as though she was being metaphorically slapped.
"You control Senior Mingjue like that, yet you frolic with other men, being all intimate and flirty, aren’t you shameless, disgraceful!"
In her frustration, Shen Yilan blurted out this accusation.
Gu Qibao was absolutely gobsmacked, not sure what face to make. So she thought she was flirting with Di Mingchen?
Gu Qibao wasn’t angry; instead, she smirked, blinking, "Who I get cozy with, and flirt with, is my business. Believe it or not, if I just crook my finger, that guy from earlier will come over here. I could hug him right in front of my husband and he wouldn’t say a thing."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yilan’s eyes widened, and she openly scoffed, "You really are shameless."
After she spoke, her expression seemed genuinely sympathetic towards Di Mingjue.
Gu Qibao didn’t bother responding and got up to leave, but unexpectedly, the jealous Shen Yilan stealthily stepped on her long dress.
Gu Qibao didn’t notice at first and simply moved to walk forward but this tug caused her to lose her balance, and she fell forward.
