Shen Qingyue heard these words and, originally prepared to leave, turned back. Her red lips curled slightly. “Sure, let’s eat together.” Wasn’t that why Yan Xi had invited her today? To let her see the difference in treatment between biological and non-biological family? Treating her as an imaginary enemy and considering the Xu Fengzhi family as good people, it was truly…

Yan Xi considerately said, “Then, sit next to me.”

“Okay.” Shen Qingyue sat down directly beside Yan Xi.

Tang Fangmo leaned over to her ear on the other side and whispered, “My parents just wanted to meet Yan Xi, that’s why they asked her out. Don’t overthink it; I will always be your brother!”

Shen Qingyue felt a warm feeling in her heart but still pushed him away with disdain. “Stay away from me; your breath stinks.”

Tang Fangmo felt a bit frustrated. “Nonsense, I brush my teeth meticulously…”

Father Tang asked the two with a smile, “What secret whispers are you two siblings sharing again? You always do this, not letting us in on your secrets.”

Shen Qingyue smiled and said, “We were discussing what gift to give you for your birthday next month. We initially wanted to surprise you, but since you asked, I’ll tell you. Brother MO said you lost your pen, so I plan to gift you a new one.”

Tang’s father chuckled. “Qingyue is considerate.”

Yan Xi sneered inwardly. After all, she had been the Young Miss of the Shen family for several years. Was she really going to gift something so cheap? She immediately turned to Father Tang and said, “Uncle, how about I buy you a Patek Philippe watch? It would be convenient for you to check the time during your classes.”

Father Tang politely declined, “No need; it’s too expensive.”

“Not expensive at all. I won’t choose something too pricey. Just a few million,” Yan Xi said with an air of pride. She wished she could tell everyone about her lavish gift, to show off what she could give compared to Shen Qingyue, even if she was the biological daughter.

Father Tang fell silent, not saying a word.

Tang Fangmo sensed Yan Xi’s show-off attitude and spoke with a slightly irritated tone, “My dad is a senior teacher at a prestigious high school. The school is very strict about corruption. You want to make people investigate him by gifting him a million-dollar watch? Yan Xi, you’re Aunt’s daughter, and we never looked down on you. But you need to be mindful; don’t flaunt your wealth to everyone. Remember, the money you have now belongs to the Shen family, not earned by you. When you have the ability, talk about these things then.” He wondered if Yan Xi would still be so short-sighted when she had the capability.

Yan Xi had gone to the film set to meet Tang Fangmo that morning. Back then, she sensed his dissatisfaction, but she did not expect him to humiliate her openly in front of others. She bit her lip. “Brother MO, what are you saying? I just wanted to buy something nice for Uncle…” She had called Shen Qingyue over to embarrass her, so how did it turn around to be her humiliation? In the end, Tang Fangmo just looked down on her. Why did he have the right to do so? If she lived a life of luxury, she could look down on others too.

Tang Fangmo sneered without a reply. In the entertainment industry, he had seen all kinds of people; Yan Xi’s tactics were really beneath his notice. When he first learned about the incident, he felt sorry for her, but he couldn’t handle Yan Xi’s personality. In the end, their aunt had passed away many years ago; he had almost forgotten what she looked like. Relationships needed nurturing. Mother Tang said, “Enough, let’s eat. The food is getting cold.”

They started eating. Mother Tang picked a piece of plum spare ribs for Shen Qingyue. “Qingyue, this dish is their specialty. I remember you liked it a lot.

You’ve gotten thin, eat more meat.”

Shen Qingyue smiled, “Thank you, Aunt.”

Father Tang and Tang Fangmo also chatted with her. The atmosphere

gradually warmed up.

They talked about past funny incidents; Yan Xi hadn’t been a part of those and thus could not join in. She felt like a transparent person, nearly exploding with frustration. This was nothing like what she had imagined. Unable to endure it any longer, she made up an excuse and left.

Who among them did not have more experience than Yan Xi? Naturally, they could guess her thoughts.

Mother Tang sighed softly, “We didn’t intend to target her, but this girl thinks too much. What are we going to do in the future…”

What troubled her even more was that this was her younger sister’s biological daughter. She couldn’t ignore her, but it was going to be troublesome.

Tang Fangmo said to Shen Qingyue, “If she tries to undermine you again, just tell me. We won’t be polite with her! With her personality, if we don’t put her in her place, she might become uncontrollable.”

Father Tang, on the other hand, remained silent. If you talked about complexity, he was undoubtedly the most complicated one. This child was nothing like his sister at all…

Shen Qingyue chuckled, “Alright, I understand.”

After dinner, the group left. Just as they stepped out, the door of the adjacent private room opened..
