Chapter 801: Chapter 801 Threat

Ruan Lingyu: "..."

She opened her mouth but no sound came out.

Shen Mianmian could earn so much money in just one month, and even with their family supporting her until she graduated from university, they would not have spent that much on her. Yet they kept saying that they would support her, which, if mentioned, would be a joke.

"Why has no one ever mentioned your small business in Licheng?"

If she had known that Shen Mianmian’s monthly income was so high, she wouldn’t have come over to say these things.

"I think, Miss Cheng, in front of you, has likely only pointed out my shortcomings and would not have mentioned my strengths, right?"

Ruan Lingyu: "..."

She suddenly felt that coming to see Shen Mianmian was a mistake, for Shen Mianmian was more astute and more articulate than she had anticipated.

A typical young girl would have been trembling with fear by now, unable to speak, but Shen Mianmian’s words were particularly incisive, not losing ground at all. Such a shrewd young lady was too cunning.

Moreover, talking about supporting Shen Mianmian had become a huge joke. Ruan Lingyu naturally would not mention it again, but she still didn’t want to disappoint Cheng Xining. "Mianmian, then tell me, what will it take for you to break off contact with Xiaonan?"

"Auntie Ruan, you’d better talk to Big Brother He. Just one word from him, and I promise I won’t appear in front of him again." Shen Mianmian pushed the ball back into He Nan’s court.

Ruan Lingyu frowned, feeling that Shen Mianmian was doing it on purpose, knowing that it wouldn’t be easy to influence He Nan’s thinking, which is why she had come to talk to Shen Mianmian.

Now that Shen Mianmian had turned the tables on her, she simply said, "Mianmian, originally I didn’t want to disturb Xiaonan’s mother, but since you put it this way, I can only ask her to come and speak with you."

"If Auntie Fu deigns to come over, I will also invite her to have tea here." Scaring her with Fu Hua? Too bad, she wasn’t afraid.

Ruan Lingyu: "..."

She felt that Shen Mianmian was unappreciative and lost her patience, her face darkening as she said, "Mianmian, as a young girl, I advise you not to be too arrogant. We disdain from leveraging our status to do unbecoming things, which is why we have repeatedly asked to talk with you. I hope you don’t become too conceited, thinking that we can’t handle you."

"Auntie Ruan, are you threatening me?"

Shen Mianmian asked with a raised eyebrow and a smile.

"You..."

Ruan Lingyu was so irritated she couldn’t continue. This young girl was too infuriating, no wonder Xining had been driven to tears.

If she stayed any longer, she might lose control of her temper. Taking a deep breath, she stood up.

"I thought you were a smart and sensible girl, knowing what choices would be best for you, but I didn’t expect such an attitude from you. It seems that coming here today was a mistake. Indeed, the education in the countryside has problems, and a young girl like you simply can’t communicate with us people from Beijing."

"Auntie Ruan, thank you for your remarks, which have also let me understand your character." Shen Mianmian shot back directly. She had been very polite to Ruan Lingyu, but Ruan Lingyu kept provoking her, so she couldn’t be blamed for her lack of politeness now.

She was not the type to suffer in silence.

Taken aback, Ruan Lingyu snorted and walked away. Too angry to visit Cheng Xining at Cheng Feiyang’s home, she went straight back to her own house.

Without having reached an agreement with Shen Mianmian, Cheng Xining would surely make trouble, and Ruan Lingyu was not in the mood to appease Cheng Xining’s temper.

Watching her leave, Shen Mianmian paid for the tea and then leisurely left the teahouse.
