The Aftermath of Having Slept with the Villain - Chapter 208: Stand-in Lover (20)

Chapter 208: Stand-in Lover (20)

World Seven. Stand-in Lover (20)

Mrs. Chen? Xue Xue didn’t react for a moment.

“It’s your mother, Ms. Yang Qingmei.” Secretary Chen reminded her in a low voice.

Xue Xue finally understood.

Not long after Yang Qingmei left Xue Zhen, she married Chen Shengxian, the second son of the Chen family who she had a brief relationship with in high school. The Chen family and the Yang family were family friends. Cheng Shengxian broke up with Yang Qingmei at the end of the college entrance examination because he decided to join the army in the north.

The love that ends abruptly when the love is strong is the most regrettable, but also the most unforgettable.

Later, Chen Shengxian was injured while performing a secret mission, and his right leg became lame, so he could only report to be discharged from the army. However, under the operation of the Chen family, Chen Shengxian, who had accumulated a certain amount of military exploits in the army for fifteen years, managed to find an official position and was also given a chance for him and Yang Qingmei to start over.

In Xue Li’s memory, she didn’t meet Chen Shengxian many times, but Chen Shengxian was an upright, generous and easy-going man. Compared with her father Xue Zhen, Xue Li liked him more.

It was a pity that such a good man ended up with Yang Qingmei after going around in circles.

Xue Xue sized up the woman in front of her, Xue Li’s mother, Yang Qingmei.

The other party had the appearance of a typical Jiangnan woman, with willow-leaf eyebrows and oval face, button nose and cherry lips, fair complexion, wearing a raven colored one-piece dress, looking beautiful and dignified.

However, she seemed very dissatisfied with Xue Xue’s straightforward gaze, she frowned, put down the teacup heavily, and her temperament changed suddenly.

“Don’t you know how to call someone?”

Her tone was blunt, not like talking to her daughter, but more like facing an enemy.

Xue Xue smiled.

“Mrs. Chen.”

Yang Qingmei’s expression became even uglier as soon as the faint words were called out.

“What did you say?”

“I don’t know what business Mrs. Chen is here for?” Xue Xue ignored her, walked to the boss chair behind the desk and sat down, folded her hands in front of her, and asked calmly. “If there is nothing, please leave first, I still have work to do.”

Yang Qingmei was shocked by Xue Xue’s attitude, and for a moment did not know what to do.

Her relationship with Xue Li has always been so estranged.

For Yang Qingmei, this daughter has witnessed all her humiliations, so Yang Qingmei has never paid attention to her since she was a child. Except for some necessary occasions, she was happy to be a stranger with her daughter.

Xue Li thought so too.

Because of her parents’ indifference, she had to understand the helplessness and cruelty of the adult world early.

But no matter what she thought in her heart, Xue Li still maintained a certain degree of respect for Yang Qingmei, and because of this, Yang Qingmei now felt a sense of helplessness when things were suddenly out of control.

After a long time, the woman finally found her voice under Xue Xue’s impatient gaze.

“I am your mother…how can you talk like that?”

Yang Qingmei’s tone of voice still carried a little girl’s being spoiled, which made Xue Xue almost get goosebumps.

Now she finally understood what it meant to be shameless and fearless.

“Mother?” Xue Xue completely lost interest in socializing with the other party. “You also know that you are a mother? What have you done that qualifies you to be called a mother? Mrs. Chen, I don’t have the time to chat with you here. If you have nothing to say, please go out, otherwise I will call the guards up. ”

Yang Qingmei never thought that Xue Xue would be so disrespectful to her.

Her face turned blue and white, and it was wonderful.

Xue Xue, however, was not in the mood to appreciate it, but seeing Yang Qingmei not moving, she simply picked up the phone and prepared to dial the security room on the first floor.

“Wait!”

Xue Xue’s fingers stopped on the button, and she looked at Yang Qingmei calmly. Apparently, if Yang Qingmei insisted on continuing, she would not be polite.

Yang Qingmei, who was so angry that she was about to explode, could only use all her strength to maintain her superficial calm.

“I came to see you on a serious matter.”

“Oh?” Xue Xue raised an eyebrow. “Please say?”

Seeing that her attitude was business-like, Yang Qingmei was on the verge of losing her temper, but thinking of the main purpose of coming here today, she could only hold back her temper. “Chen An came back on Saturday night. Uncle Chen will be hosting a banquet and asks you to attend.”

The inexplicable name that appeared took Xue Xue a while to remember who Chen An was in Yang Qingmei’s mouth.

Since Chen Shengxian’s father passed away a few years ago, the Chen family began to go downhill, with the trees attracting the wind and the children and grandchildren not striving for success. The good situation of the Chen family has gone. Now, Chen Huaixian, Chen Shengxian’s eldest brother, supports a large family, and Chen An is Chen Huaixian’s youngest son.

It was said that he was also the most outstanding child in the Chen family, but he was arranged to go to the south by Old Master Chen early on, so Xue Li never met him.

Now the meaning of Yang Qingmei’s words was clearly revealed.

Xue Xue just didn’t expect that in such a short period of time, people would suggest blind dates to her one after another. Xue Li was really thriving.

But in Xue Li’s life, this was obviously just a “trifle” not worth remembering.

“Listen…”

“I’m sorry, my schedule is already full on Saturday.” Xue Xue refused politely without hesitation, regardless of Yang Qingmei’s extremely ugly expression. “Anything else? You can leave if there’s nothing.”

Yang Qingmei probably never dreamed that there would be a day when she would be slapped in the face by her daughter directly.

Although no one else was present, it still made her feel a strong sense of humiliation.

“Xue Li!” She roared bitterly. “No matter what, I’m your mother, so be careful of what you say!”

Mother?

Xue Xue looked at Yang Qingmei calmly. Although she was middle-aged and had fine lines around her eyes, judging from the woman’s complexion and state, she was undoubtedly a pampered lady who didn’t have to worry about life.

There are always some people in this world who are very lucky and can be themselves without caring about other people’s eyes.

As if the world was supposed to revolve around her.

Xue Xue didn’t know where Yang Qingmei’s confidence comes from, and who gave her such confidence, but…

“Since Mrs. Chen has never thought of fulfilling the responsibility of being a mother in the past twenty years, stop acting like a mother to oppress others.” Xue Xue’s voice was as cold as frost formed in the cold winter. “That makes you look pathetic and… ridiculous.”
