René Alejandro was busy befriending everyone present and doing his best to leave a good impression on them while categorizing each person on whether they would be usable to him or not. At the very least, the others were finding his presence more acceptable than Wei Lan who couldn't stop sniping at her ex-husband every chance she got and turning the atmosphere awkward.
It was good that Grandma Li and Huang Yuyan were both present to deter most of her vindictive impulses against Long Tengfei because Iris and Jin Liwei didn't want to bother about her anymore. The husband and wife decided to just ignore the woman instead of letting her pettiness ruin the festive Christmas gathering.
On a more positive note, Wei Lan's antics were quite laughable. If they didn't allow her to annoy them, she was a good source of comedic relief especially when backed up by Randy, her current best friend and sidekick.
