Reading between the lines, Mrs. Ding was obviously reminding Madame Ding and Ding Jiaqi that their family had the Qian family’s support. They could go try going against the Qian family if they were that confident about themselves.
Since the Qian family invited her, Grandma Ding would not dare to say anything, of course. She only shot Mo Fei a glance and said in disdain, “Don’t embarrass yourself if you go. You’ve embarrassed yourself in the company. If you’re still being embarrassing when you’re outside, our Ding family won’t have much left for you to throw.”
Mo Fei glanced at Madame Ding and ate her food slowly. “Being unable to manage the company well is vastly different from biting the hands that feed them. What do you think, Cousin Qi?” Mo Fei tore the bread in her hand and looked at Ding Jiaqi calmly.
Ding Jiaqi paused for a moment, but she still tried her best to keep a straight face. “Of course, it’s like what you said. However, Mrs. Qian is from a wealthy family after all. It’s better if Cousin Fei doesn’t do anything wrong when she’s there.”
Ding Jiaqi said this with a smile. However, Mo Fei was well aware that Ding Jiaqi must have vomited her heart out internally. After all, Ding Jiaqi planned to embarrass Mo Fei in the company today.
However, now that Mo Fei would be heading off with the madame of the Qian family, those angry directors would suddenly come to a realization—oh, she was Young Master Qian’s fiancée. It would still be a long way before Ding Enterprise could go bankrupt.
In this way, the things that Ding Jiaqi had done to disrupt the morale of the people in the company were completely wasted.
Undeniably, Qian Yikun executed this tactic perfectly. At the very least, he used his mother to calm the angry directors down who were used in Ding Jiaqi’s scheme.
The old businessman was indeed an old businessman. He managed to help Mo Fei suppress the directors with a tiny idea like this one. At least, he bought her more time.
“Why don’t I accompany Cousin Fei? I’ve eaten with Mrs. Qian several times before. I know what Mrs. Qian’s likes and dislikes,” Ding Jiaqi offered shamelessly.
Grandma Ding butted in immediately, “That’s right. Let Jiaqi go with you so that you won’t offend Mrs. Qian with your country bumpkin ways.”
Mo Fei fluttered her eyelids as she looked at the old lady who was so unreasonable that Mo Fei felt sorry for the adjective when used on her. There was no one worse than those who often demanded respect because they lived longer in this world. Whenever Mo Fei thought about how she shared the same blood as this old thing, she would often find herself the urge to change her blood.
“It can’t be helped. Auntie likes everything when it comes to me,” Mo Fei said with a cheekily smile, sending the grandmother-granddaughter duo into a fury.
Just because Mo Fei ignored them, they started going over the line, did they not?
Ding Jiaqi’s expression transformed into something Mo Fei found the most interesting.
Ding Haonan remained silent. He was utterly disappointed in his mother. Therefore, he no longer bothered to come up with any other excuse for his mother.
At the breakfast table, Mo Fei won one round without batting an eyelid. She scored her second win when Mrs. Qian especially got her chauffeur to fetch Mo Fei and Mrs. Ding. The chauffeur even specially instructed Mo Fei to wear more clothes—Madame’s orders. Since Mo Fei had a weak constitution, she must not catch a cold, especially in the cold of late spring.
When the driver said this, Ding Jiaqi, who was standing at the side, turned green in an instant. His words sounded like an extension of what Mo Fei said, “Auntie likes everything when it comes to me!”
This was the most acute embodiment of limitless face-smacking.
Mo Fei smiled cheekily as she watched the colorful transformations of expressions unfold on their faces. Under Grandma Ding’s unhappy gaze, Mo Fei held her mother’s hand proudly and left the house.
“Haonan.” Grandma Ding turned around and glared at her son.
