29 -29 Her Attitude 3_1

“Is that what you call casual talking?

Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking?

You hope you can persuade my Cousin Zhilan to become someone who’s insulted instead of someone who is admired and praised by everyone.

That way you would be relieved of hearing about how good and amazing Zhilan is all the time.

That would satisfy you, wouldn’t it?”

Liang Hong was left speechless as Liang Jing had read her mind through a few sentences.

Liang Hong glared at He Zhilan and then left dejectedly.

“He Zhilan, you’ve been admitted to Capital University.

You can’t be so dumb as to not see what kind of person she is.

It surprises me that you can even talk to someone like her!” Liang Jing snorted, “If you get swayed by what Liang Hong said, then you’re as heartless as a wolf and as ungrateful as a dog!”

He Zhilan shook her head, “After all, she was your guest.

I didn’t feel right ignoring her when she was talking to me, so I made some perfunctory replies.” This was meant as an explanation.

Moreover, He Zhilan didn’t know that Liang Hong would take advantage of Liang Jing and He Teng’s absence to say those absurd things to her.

Had she known that, she would have shamelessly gone to the balcony to watch the hedgehog.

“You’d better mean that!” Liang Jing was not so angry at this point.

Liang Jing went into the kitchen.

He Zhilan glanced at He Teng, who stood motionless at the doorway of the balcony.

He had a wooden expression that He Zhilan didn’t understand, let alone decipher the calm emotions hidden beneath his eyes.

However, she was somewhat worried that Liang Hong’s words might make He Teng have doubts, doubts about her transformation.

“Brother~” He Zhilan called He Teng as she moved towards the balcony.

He Teng finally took his gaze off He Zhilan, and the pressure on her vanished instantly.

“Go to the kitchen to see if auntie needs any help.

If not, help Liang Jing with her homework.

Dongxue said your tutoring really helps.”

He Zhilan nodded.

She understood that this wasn’t the place to explain unnecessary stuff.

In the kitchen, He Hongmei wasn’t deaf.

Naturally, she was aware of what happened in the living room.

Even though she was angry, as an elder, she couldn’t just drive people away like Liang Jing.

So, she had feigned ignorance about Liang Jing driving people away by hiding in the kitchen.

Seeing He Zhilan come in, He Hongmei set down her work unhappily.

“Zhilan, auntie doesn’t mean to meddle, but I can’t help saying a few words to you.

If you’re swayed by Liang Hong’s words and start having messy thoughts, then you really are heartless and ungrateful!” Mother and daughter indeed, saying the exact same words.

“Auntie, I won’t.” He Zhilan hurriedly shook her head.

Without explaining further, He Hongmei might really start to doubt her.

“Auntie, my thinking is not the same as hers.

I believe that a girl studies to broaden her horizons and learn more about life.

As for the knowledge gained, it should be used to improve one’s life, not the circumstances of one’s marriage.

I believe that in a marriage, what a woman seeks is stability and decency.

Brother is great, dad treats me very well, I’m not an ungrateful person.

So, rest assured, auntie.

No matter what career I will be pursuing after graduation, I will forever be dad’s daughter and brother’s wife.

That will never change.”
