Chapter 151
After Peng Li finished speaking, she waited for the Qin family to respond. However, when no one reacted for a long time, Peng Li's hand froze as she touched her necklace, and she looked around at everyone in confusion.
She saw that everyone was looking at her with subtle expressions.
"What does this mean? You're not even willing to help with this small favor?" Peng Li looked at Qin's Mom with displeasure, as if Qin's Mom was being unreasonable.
Qin's Mom replied wearily, "Haven't you been on the internet? The last person who wanted someone else to leave the entertainment industry has already been disowned by their family."
Qin's Father also said with a half-smile, "Besides, they've also approached our daughter-in-law before, and the result was..."
The others looked at Ji Fei with amusement, while Ji Fei looked innocent.
Peng Li immediately justified herself, "How can that be the same? Just based on our years of acquaintance, shouldn't your younger generation show some respect to me as an elder?"
The Qin family members all disliked Peng Li's tone of voice.
Ji Fei couldn't help but mock internally: [Show you respect? Have you ever given the Qin family's younger generation New Year's money or something? Why should they show you respect?]
She had no idea why Ji Fei's train of thought would lead to New Year's money!
But... it seemed to make a lot of sense.
Qin Zhao indicated that he hadn't even received 100 yuan, so how could she be considered an elder? And she still wanted him to help her with something? What a joke!
Seeing that there was still no response after she spoke, Peng Li became somewhat angry.
"Hou Lan, do you believe I'll tell your parents that you're not even willing to help me with this small favor?"
The younger generation of the Qin family was truly shocked by an elder who would still threaten to tattle to their parents.
Qin's Mom, who was already used to this, said, "Our Qin family has never bullied others with our power. Moreover, this concerns my Fei Fei's future reputation in the entertainment industry. Unless she doesn't care, once she gets involved, she will inevitably become the judge of the entertainment industry, making fair judgments without favoritism."
Ji Fei was suddenly enveloped by a sense of embarrassment from the chuunibyou-like atmosphere.
[Qin's Mom has really been poisoned by the internet, saying things that make people so embarrassed!]
Qin's Mom ignored Ji Fei's mockery and still looked proud.
The other members of the Qin family could barely contain their laughter.
"You!" Peng Li probably didn't expect that for such a small matter, Qin's Mom would be so unaccommodating. However, she quickly recovered.
"What do you mean by bullying others with power? I never thought that way. I just came to tell you that Sun Man has character issues, to remind your so-called judge to deal with her properly in the next round. Don't let her slip through, lest she continues to mislead my godson!"
The Qin family knew that Peng Li had a godson, but they were too lazy to pay attention to her affairs, so they had never been clear about who her godson was. They only knew that her doting on her godson was a famous joke.
It could be said that a large part of the reason for her divorce was because of her godson.
Peng Li actually had a daughter with her ex-husband, but gradually her in-laws discovered that Peng Li didn't care for her own daughter at all and wasn't close to her. Instead, she treated her godson like a treasure, spoiling and indulging him. If it weren't for the lack of blood relation, it would definitely raise suspicions.
However, precisely because there was no problem with blood relations, this unfair treatment was truly disheartening. Finally, after Peng Li repeatedly neglected her own daughter, causing her daughter to develop serious psychological issues, her in-laws firmly decided to divorce. Even finding a loveless stepmother would be better than this biological mother!
After the divorce, the daughter was given custody to the father, and they almost cut off all contact. It wasn't that the other family was heartless, but that Peng Li truly didn't like her daughter and never thought about contacting her.
Someone had asked her why.
Her answer was that she had dreamed that her daughter was her enemy in a past life, born to snatch everything from her, and would cause her to lose her reputation and end up in prison.
This bizarre argument wasn't completely mocked, because rich people sometimes really believe in strange things.
And now, for the sake of a godson, she specially came to ask for help from Qin's Mom, whom she disliked. It really seemed that her godson was more important than her own daughter.
This truly made the entire Qin family curious about how she came to accept Lang Zhe as her godson.
Ji Fei was also curious, so she started to dig into the gossip.
Peng Li was rattling off various methods to encourage them to deal with Sun Man, as if she were Lang Zhe's biological mother, playing the role of the evil mother-in-law who disliked her son's partner.
Meanwhile, the Qin family members were distracted because Ji Fei had started to mutter to herself.
[Ah... I see, Peng Li used to be a fangirl, she was a dream girl of Lang Shidi, Lang Zhe's father.]
Having recently been consuming a lot of gossip, the Qin family members were not unfamiliar with some terms and instantly understood what it meant.
So this was a case of loving the house and its crow?
[Because Lang Shidi and Teacher Lu had been together for a long time, even though Peng Li used her wealth to pursue Lang Shidi frantically, she was still firmly rejected by him. Moreover, they weren't afraid of Peng Li. Although Peng Li was a wealthy heiress, they had military background, so Peng Li didn't dare to go too far. She could only regretfully withdraw. However, when Lang Zhe was six or seven years old, Lang Shidi passed away. Peng Li was very sad and insisted on looking after Lang Zhe together with Teacher Lu, forcibly accepting him as her godson, and from then on, she treated him as if he were her own son.]
The Qin family members really didn't know how to respond to this.
And Ji Fei was still continuing.
[I'm just laughing, it turns out Peng Li suddenly finding the Qin family was out of anger. I was wondering why this visit was so abrupt.]
The Qin family members immediately became curious. Anger? What was she angry about?
[I'm just saying, even Lang Zhe's biological mother, Teacher Lu, after interacting with Sun Man, thought Sun Man was not bad. But you, as a godmother, are opposing it. After Lang Zhe also expressed his desire to reconcile with Sun Man, you actually got angry and came here, wanting to interfere from our side to stop Lang Zhe? I just want to say it's really unnecessary. Sun Man doesn't want to step into that fire pit at all.]
The Qin family members were somewhat surprised. They didn't expect that in the eyes of netizens, the "evil mother-in-law" didn't give Sun Man a hard time as everyone had predicted, but instead was quite satisfied after interacting with her. It seems she's also a fair person.
Unfortunately, Teacher Lu didn't know that her son was a bad seed, but Sun Man knew, so her approval was useless.
As for this Peng Li, she really treated him like her own son, even interfering with his relationships. Was she trying to control the child's life?
But then again, how exactly did Lang Zhe go bad? His own mother didn't know, and his godmother didn't seem to know either. What exactly did Sun Man see through that made her choose to break up?
By this time, Peng Li had finished speaking, her mouth dry. Seeing everyone looking distracted, she suddenly became angry, "Are you even listening to what I'm saying?"
Everyone perfunctorily indicated that they were listening. If it weren't for the fact that this gossip was related to Ji Fei and Qin Zhao's next competition, they wouldn't even bother entertaining guests.
Everyone's expressions made Peng Li feel choked up. If it weren't for her precious son, she wouldn't have come here to suffer this indignity!
It was all Lu Fei's fault. In the past, with other girls, Lu Fei would have found problems and driven them away without her having to intervene, not letting Lang Zhe be led astray. Why couldn't she see the problems with Sun Man?
If she hadn't promised Lang Zhe to keep that matter a secret, she would have reported Sun Man to the police back then.
