"Presumptuous! The status of my mistress is not for an outsider like you to question!" Qi Luo scolded the woman for her impudence.
"What outsider? My connection with Big Brother Han has a depth no one else can match. It's also out of concern for him that I speak. Big Brother Han is such a talent; he's not someone just any ordinary person can aspire to. It's best if indecent women don't try to get involved—otherwise, it's going to be embarrassing to get thrown out later."
Chen Li's sarcasm was fueled by jealousy in her heart. Deep down, she believed Han Yu shouldn't be involved with other women, even if that woman was his wife. How could a merchant's daughter be worthy of such a fine man—even though her own status was beneath that of Su Wenyue? Chen Li was suspicious, seeing Su Wenyue blocked outside. If Su Wenyue really were Han Yu's wife, why would the soldiers prevent her from entering? Chen Li surmised the woman was likely pretending, trying to sneak in under false pretenses.
