Su Li saw Wei Chengfeng to the door.
Wei Chengfeng got into the car, but then rolled down the window and said to Su Li, who was still standing by the car, "Don't be sly, you can't outplay her."
Su Li paused for a moment, then realized he was talking about Su Qin.
"We've only just met today, and you're already concerned about me?"
"I don't allow my wife to be played by such a person, it's disgraceful," he said, then raised the window and ordered the driver to leave.
Watching Wei Chengfeng's car drive away, Su Li turned and entered the house.
But upon entering, she saw Su Qin, who had just a moment ago been the picture of grace, now sitting with her legs crossed and sipping tea, giving her a scornful smile as she walked in.
"Just one day together, and your relationship has progressed quite quickly, hasn't it?"
Su Li sat down too, took another sip of the tea she hadn't finished, and said, "'Love at first sight,' that's how it goes, right? I didn't expect it to be like this either, this... might just be what they call fate."
Seeing her composed demeanor, Su Qin was even more infuriated on the inside.
"Really? Then congratulations," Su Qin said, "but as usual, rich men are fickle. You'd better be careful, or you won't even have a place to cry."
Su Li chuckled and replied, "Men, ah, they need to have women chasing them to highlight their charm, especially since he is so outstanding. Even if someone said no woman coveted him, I wouldn't believe it. Though... why do I detect a hint of sourness in your words?"
"Jealous? Hah, what a joke. What do I have to be jealous of?" Su Qin clenched her teeth, refusing to admit it.
Su Li understood her thoughts but didn't completely expose them; being too explicit would take the fun out of it. Anyway, she had no energy to worry about what Su Qin was thinking. If Su Qin regretted it, she wouldn't mind giving up the opportunity for an arranged marriage to her.
He Yinru came back from outside and saw Su Qin sitting in the living room with a face so gloomy it looked like she was about to drip water, clearly in a bad mood.
She put down her bag and went over to sit beside her, asking, "What's wrong? Who has upset our young miss again?"
"I'm no young miss, I'm the second daughter of the Su family, what status do I have?"
He Yinru didn't think too much about the loaded statement and asked directly, "I've only been out for a little while, what happened?"
Su Qin turned halfway, looking unwilling to speak.
He Yinru gave her a look and then called out, "Housekeeper He, what happened while I was gone?"
Housekeeper He was a distant relative of He Yinru and naturally biased towards her and her daughter. So, he relayed the matter of Wei Chengfeng's visit for tea earlier.
After listening, He Yinru raised an eyebrow and said, "That's nothing, she's just trying to provoke you. Can't you see that?"
"It's not that, Mom..." Su Qin bit her lip, not wanting to continue but feeling uneasy until she did, so she spoke again, albeit reluctantly, "That Wei Chengfeng is even more handsome and outstanding than he is on TV, that demeanor... it's all adding points for Su Li. If Su Li marries him, I'll always be beneath her."
He Yinru frowned and said, "I've seen him at a banquet before too, he does seem decent, but you have to know..."
He Yinru leaned in closer, gave Su Qin a knowing look, and whispered, "He's a pervert. Su Li marrying him will only be happy for a while; sooner or later, she'll have her day of tears."
