Chapter 217 Using Shen Lan to Pave the Way
Shen Lan took a nap in the room, and only after regaining enough energy did she change her clothes and go downstairs.
When I passed by the living room, I saw someone sitting on the sofa from a distance.
When I got closer, I saw that it was Zhao Yue.
Her complexion looked much better than yesterday, and she looked delicate and elegant when she was silent, as if the crazy, hysterical person last night was an illusion.
Zhao Yue heard footsteps and looked up happily. When she saw it was Shen Lan, her brows instantly frowned.
"why you?"
Shen Lan didn't bother to pay attention to her and walked straight to the door, but before she took a few steps, Zhao Yue stopped her.
"What's the matter with you?"
Zhao Yue pursed her lips, her eyes sly. "Shen Lan, haven't you heard about that? Brother Yun has a woman. As soon as you left K City, he took that woman to his side, accompanying her day and night, protecting her like a treasure."
Shen Lan's expression remained unchanged, he just narrowed his eyes: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Zhao Yue was furious when she saw her condescending attitude. She gritted her teeth and said, "That woman's surname is also Shen, Shen Nian, and she's incredibly beautiful. You, an ugly freak, can't compare to her. I'm afraid Brother Yan was so close to you before because of your surname."
She raised her chin slightly and said sarcastically, "You're just a stand-in at best."
A stand-in dares to act so arrogant and self-righteous all day long. She said all this to bring Shen Lan back to her original form. A wild chicken is a wild chicken and can never turn into a phoenix.
Shen Lan found it so funny that he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
This Zhao Yue has a rich imagination. Her story-making skills are no less impressive than hers. She even created a stand-in...
She did have a stand-in, but it was far different from what Zhao Yue said.
She cooperated by frowning, sighing, and looking worried.
When Zhao Yue thought she was hit hard by herself, Shen Lan suddenly chuckled: "Even if I'm just a substitute, I'm still with Xiao Yun and living in the Xiao family. And you can't even compare to a substitute, I don't know what you're so happy about."
After she finished speaking, she gave Zhao Yue a meaningful look, sneered, and walked away.
Zhao Yue was so angry that her face turned blue. She wanted to lose her temper, but when she thought that this was the Xiao family, she could only suppress her anger.
Why are all people with the surname Shen so annoying!
"Yueyue." Butler Zhao's voice came, and Zhao Yue immediately put on a well-behaved expression: "Dad, I'm back."
"You still remember to come back? You ran so far away without saying a word. Don't you know that Dad will be worried? If there is a next time..."
"There won't be a next time. I won't be willful again. I'm sorry, Dad." Zhao Yue immediately expressed her opinion, looking at Butler Zhao with pitiful eyes.
This look made Butler Zhao swallow the scolding on his lips. He had never been able to deal with this daughter. When Yueyue did something wrong when she was a child, as long as she looked at him with this look, he would be unable to resist and would always forgive her.
"Forget it this time, but don't run away without saying a word next time. It's not safe for a girl to go out in the middle of the night, and you're so weak..."
Butler Zhao talked a lot, and Zhao Yue knew that her father was doing this for her own good, so she listened silently.
Seeing that his daughter was obedient, Butler Zhao felt much more relieved.
"Okay, I'll take you home first. You stay home and I'll bring you something delicious when I'm done."
Zhao Yue glanced reluctantly in the direction of the study, but she was not curious about the "work" her father mentioned.
Dad has been very busy since he became the Xiao family's housekeeper, and she is used to it.
Seeing that she didn't ask any more questions, Butler Zhao felt relieved.
Just now, the young master suddenly asked him to go to the hospital for a physical examination, and the expenses would be reimbursed by the Xiao family.
Butler Zhao immediately guessed that Shen Lan must have said something to the young master. He was secretly annoyed with Shen Lan for meddling in other people's business and wondered if she had noticed that he disliked her and wanted to take the initiative to drive him out.
But the young master had given the order, and he had no choice but to do it.
Butler Zhao sneered in his heart. Although he was old, he had always been in good health and was loyal to the Xiao family. There was no way he could be driven out!
After the father and daughter left the Xiao family, Zhao Yue relaxed. She took Butler Zhao's arm and whispered, "Dad, when are you going to deal with Shen Lan?"
Butler Zhao paused slightly and asked, "I saw you two talking just now. What were you talking about?"
"What do we have to talk about?" Zhao Yue curled her lips, her face full of anger. "She was mocking me, laughing at me being kicked out of the Xiao family by Brother Yan. She looked so proud."
"Dad, we can't touch Shen Nian for the time being, but we should be able to deal with Shen Lan more than enough."
Zhao Yue looked confident when she said this.
My father has been in the Xiao family for almost thirty years and knows the family like the back of his hand. The servants all listen to him, and even the old lady treats him differently. He is like a half-elder to Brother Yun, so dealing with Shen Lan is no problem at all for him.
Housekeeper Zhao patted his daughter's arm, his eyes dark, "It will be soon, just for a few days. I won't let Shen Lan stay in the Xiao family."
There are too many obstacles to clear in order for my daughter to marry the young master, so let's use Shen Lan as a path forward!
