Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi immediately noticed the subtle change in Qin Rumeng’s demeanor, almost instinctively turning their heads to look towards the door.

Upon seeing Huangfu Yueli and Chu Ji, Ye Xunhuan instantly understood what was happening.

Although Qiu Ruoxi did not recognize Huangfu Yueli, she knew Chu Ji. But could it be that Qin Rumeng and Chu Ji have some sort of vendetta?

Otherwise, why would Qin Rumeng suddenly change her expression?

For a moment, Qiu Ruoxi’s heart was filled with countless doubts.

At the instant Qin Rumeng’s face turned unpleasant, Huangfu Yueli had already seen Qin Rumeng, while her heart was filled with a sense of helplessness.

She had long guessed that Qin Rumeng would react this way upon seeing her.

Although she had already anticipated it, seeing Qin Rumeng’s expression still made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

After all, she once took care of Qin Rumeng.

The next moment, Huangfu Yueli moved towards Qin Rumeng and the others with Chu Ji.

"Rumeng, when did you come to Dongnan City? Why didn’t you give me a heads-up..." Huangfu Yueli wore a thick smile, exuding a mild and harmless aura.

"Madam Chu is so busy, how could I dare disturb?" Qin Rumeng said sarcastically, "Moreover, with my status, how could I dare have any interaction with Madam Chu!"

As soon as Qin Rumeng spoke, her words were filled with gunpowder.

On the side, Chu Ji’s heart was suddenly filled with confusion; wasn’t it said that her mother and Qin Fenghuang were close friends?

Logically, she should have a good relationship with Qin Rumeng too, so why does Qin Rumeng treat her mother so poorly?

Not only was Chu Ji filled with doubt, but so was Qiu Ruoxi.

This... what exactly is the situation?

Ye Xunhuan was the only exception; previously, Qiu Shuihan had given him a heads up, making Ye Xunhuan well aware that there might be some grievance between Qin Rumeng and Huangfu Yueli.

And now, it turns out to be true.

But what kind of grievance could exist between them?

This filled Ye Xunhuan’s heart with doubt.

Faced with Qin Rumeng’s sarcastic tone, Huangfu Yueli’s smile didn’t diminish at all; she still looked at Qin Rumeng cheerfully!

"Rumeng..."

"Are we very close?" Qin Rumeng immediately interrupted Huangfu Yueli.

"Rumeng, I know you’re angry with me, I..."

"Please call me Miss Qin, or Qin Rumeng!" Qin Rumeng interrupted Huangfu Yueli again and said, "Also, if you don’t have anything to say, please leave, seeing you makes me feel as disgusted as eating a fly!"

Chu Ji couldn’t help but speak up upon hearing Qin Rumeng talk about her mother like this, "Miss Qin, although I don’t know what happened between you and my mother, don’t you think it’s a bit excessive to insult her like this?"

"Insult?" Qin Rumeng sneered, "Do you think this is an insult?"

"You..."

"Am I wrong to speak the truth?" Qin Rumeng sneered, "If you’re unhappy, leave, I didn’t ask you to stand in front of me."

Chu Ji wanted to say something, but Huangfu Yueli suddenly spoke up, "Chu Ji, don’t be rude to your aunt!"

Though Chu Ji felt somewhat dissatisfied being scolded by Huangfu Yueli, she didn’t say anything further.

Then, Huangfu Yueli turned her gaze to Qin Rumeng, "Rumeng, can you let me finish speaking? Once I’m done, I’ll disappear from your sight."

"I hope you hurry up!"

Seeing Qin Rumeng willing to let her speak, Huangfu Yueli sighed deeply and slowly said, "Rumeng, I know you’ve felt wronged over the years, it’s not easy for you to keep the Fenghua Group going, and I know you have to deal with the Qin family to protect your sister’s legacy..."

"You’re not qualified to call her sister!" Qin Rumeng said coldly.

"I know, you hate me because I didn’t step forward at the critical moment, and I understand I should’ve helped you manage the Fenghua Group, not ignore..."

Ye Xunhuan and the other two widened their eyes in shock, Fenghua Group?

Could it be that Qin Fenghuang once considered letting Huangfu Yueli manage the Fenghua Group, but she refused?

"I wanted to, but I couldn’t stay in Beijing forever, you know, that place isn’t suitable for me, and I trust you, I believed you could manage Fenghua Group well!"

"Huangfu Yueli, do you really think I dislike you because of this?" Qin Rumeng scoffed, "If so, then you’re underestimating me, Qin Rumeng!"

"I never intended for an outsider like you to manage Fenghua Group, you’re unqualified!" Qin Rumeng said disdainfully, "That’s my sister’s legacy, it’s the empire she built with her life’s work!"

"What right does an outsider have to interfere?"

"Rumeng, you’ve always seen me as an outsider?"

"Not before, but now I do!" Qin Rumeng said straightforwardly.

Previously, Qin Rumeng regarded Huangfu Yueli as family, the closest person, but now, though not an enemy, there was no fondness, and Qin Rumeng never wanted to see Huangfu Yueli in her lifetime.

"Rumeng, are you angry with me over that incident, right?"

"Why, are you embarrassed to talk about it in front of Xunhuan and your daughter, ashamed?" Qin Rumeng sneered, "Afraid they’ll laugh at you, look down on you!"

"But I suppose you’re not afraid; after all, your face is thicker than the Great Wall, what’s there to fear!"

"Can’t you give me another chance?" Huangfu Yueli spoke with a bitter expression, "I realize now that I was wrong!"

"You realize now, don’t you think it’s too late?" Qin Rumeng said heavily, "One wrong step leads to many; looking back is too late!"

"Rumeng..."

"Huangfu Yueli, don’t let me see you again, if you dare appear before me, I’ll definitely slap you!" Qin Rumeng said through gritted teeth, filled with hatred, "And your daughter, keep her away from my nephew!"

"If I find out your daughter approaches my nephew, I guarantee she’ll suffer, really suffer!"

When she finished speaking, Qin Rumeng got up directly and said to Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi, "Xunhuan, Ruoxi, let’s go!"

With that, Qin Rumeng turned and left.

Seeing this, Qiu Ruoxi glanced at Ye Xunhuan and the others and then went after Qin Rumeng, feeling that Qin Rumeng’s mood had turned very bad due to Huangfu Yueli’s appearance.

"Aunt, although I don’t know what is between you and my mother or anything, but my aunt really doesn’t want to see you, don’t ask me to create opportunities for you anymore!" Ye Xunhuan said softly to Huangfu Yueli!

"Chu Ji, take care of your mother, I’m leaving!"
