Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

The older brother was startled.

If it weren’t for Yu Minglang’s hint to take a closer look, he really wouldn’t have recognized his beautiful sister-in-law at first glance.

From every angle, she looked like a country girl, not to mention her much darker skin, and at first glance, her facial features seemed different too, but upon careful inspection, it was still Qian!

"Is this... Am I dreaming?" The older brother rubbed his eyes. This world is so fantastical.

"Young Master, your tea." The village girl who resembled Qian but seemed off, approached Yu Minglang with the tea.

"That’s it, I’ve been hypnotized by Qian and haven’t woken up. I’m going to lie down for a bit." The older brother was baffled, rubbing his temples and wanting to go inside.

"Girl, you’re so pretty, are you married?" Yu Minglang asked cheekily.

"Married."

"Is your man good to you?"

"Not good, he’s a jerk."

Huh...? The older brother felt this response sounded very much like Qian’s style, so he paused, turning his head in confusion.

He happened to see Yu Minglang holding her chin, saying lightly.

"Stick with me from now on, I’ll provide for you and take care of everything, including sleeping—ah!"

Charming for less than three seconds, that cup of tea was splashed all over his face.

"Hey! Your acting just lost points! What kind of nanny would be so harsh? And dare to splash water on the employer’s face?" Yu Minglang wiped the water off his face, saying that it was meant to be acted as a newbie city nanny?

"What kind of employer acts so shamelessly? Splashing you is already mild." Qian looked at him coldly; this guy sure plays the rascal part well, he has a very punchable face.

"Qian?! Your face...?!" The older brother was bewildered.

Is he awake or still dreaming?

This demeanor is Qian’s, but why does her face seem strange?

"This is a makeup infiltration technique we often used at our old workplace. How is it? Just made slight changes on the face, isn’t it hard to recognize?" Yu Minglang gloated.

He removed his wife’s glasses, had her wear contact lenses, then used a special adhesive to make her eye corners droop, followed by applying a special powder, turning her fair face into a dark yellowish tone, unevenly contoured to make her delicate face slightly square. Just a few subtle adjustments made her look completely different; without speaking, she seemed like she came from the countryside.

"Will these things you’ve done hurt my skin?" Qian, although thinking that changing face is a magical thing, is more concerned about whether her carefully maintained beauty will be damaged.

"No worries, these are specialized makeup tools we use. Don’t you often put various masks of questionable colors and names on your face without ruining it?"

In Xiaoqiang’s view, it was Qian’s collection of mysterious colored face masks that seemed suspicious all along.

"Why is Qian dressed like this? Is there a theater play at school?" The older brother couldn’t comprehend.

"Yes, it’s time to put on a big show." Qian said confidently.

Life is like a play all based on acting skills, these days even a psychologist needs some acting skills to get by, especially facing such cunning adversaries.

In the rented house of Feng Manman, a furious Feng Manman vigorously smashed a bowl towards a plainly dressed old lady.

"What the hell is this rubbish you’ve made? It smells disgusting. Don’t you know I’m pregnant? If the chairman finds out you’ve neglected me like this, he’ll definitely fire you!"

"Heh." The old lady sneered disdainfully and forcefully scrubbed the dining table with a cloth, the not-so-dry cloth causing splashes onto Feng Manman’s eyes.

"You’re just a maid, watch out or I’ll have the chairman fire you!"

Ever since confirming her pregnancy, Feng Manman has been increasingly arrogant, suspecting Yu Mingli was afraid she’d cause a fuss with Mrs Yu, that very night brought her two maids, one young girl to clean, and another to cook, letting Feng Manman from a moderately wealthy background experience the privilege of being rich.

Always yearning for the life of a lady, living in a mansion, riding luxury cars, having servants at home, dressing beautifully every day, shopping non-stop when going out.

But having servants wasn’t entirely what it seemed; the old maid kept opposing Feng Manman.

Seeing the disdain in the old maid’s eyes, Feng Manman couldn’t hold back her temper, holding her waist and shouting at her.

"What are you looking at!"

"What’s the matter? Done something disgraceful and afraid of being seen? I’ve worked at Xiao Li’s home for many years, the boss wouldn’t order me around like you do, who do you think you are? A homewrecker, ptooey!" The old maid spat heavily at Feng Manman.

Don’t be fooled by her age, over 60, she served at the Yu family’s home for over two decades before retiring, then the family replaced her with the current younger auntie.

Yu Mingli used to call her aunt, she addressed Yu’s four children by their nicknames; everyone was respectful of the old lady in the Yu family, except for Feng Manman who felt superior due to her expected child and dared to confront her.

"What did you say!!" Feng Manman pointed at the old lady.

"What’s it to you? Don’t know how to write shame and virtue? I’m not here to babysit your affair if Xiao Li hadn’t asked me. Holding your waist for what, don’t even know if you’re carrying a princeling or a cub, pretending for whom? Xiao Li’s wife didn’t act so delicate carrying twins, heh, not even a big belly yet putting on airs like you’re due any moment!"

"Ah!" Feng Manman screamed in anger, how is this old lady so wild!

This was utterly different from her imagined relationship between a wealthy lady and her maid, it was maddening!

"Ah what, I’m not afraid of you, got the guts to do the whole aoe suite, I’m an old woman who wouldn’t back off!" The old lady angrily glanced at the younger woman in an apron, dressed as a maid, yes, it was Qian.

Qian came with Mrs Liu, infiltrating Feng Manman’s place, it was the second day.

She pretended to be a maid, not really doing any chores, her task was simple, watch Mrs Liu make Feng Manman nearly speechless with rage.

"I’m calling the chairman right now! If the child is distressed by you, you old woman will face the consequences!"

"Hehehe, go ahead, call right now! Really think you’re the legitimate empress now? The empress is a thousand times more cultured than you, what are you? You’re shamelessly wrecking homes, ever learned how to spell face from your parents?"

That’s why Qian could stand there without working without anyone noticing, because Feng Manman was nearly speechless with anger from Mrs Liu’s sharp tongue.

"I’m calling the chairman now!" Feng Manman called Yu Mingli, but found her phone disconnected, she tried to drive Mrs Liu away but she wouldn’t leave. In rage, she prepared to find Yu Mingli herself, yet opening the door, two burly bodyguards directly blocked her. Were her movements being restricted?

Watching Feng Manman furious, Qian smirked, gave Mrs Liu a look, it was time to close the trap.
