Xiao Shuju felt extrely wronged and shouted, "If you’d said earlier, I would’ve been more careful and not brought her here. In the end, you and your daughter put on this act yourselves. How am I supposed to know what you two are up to, and why should I take the bla for you?"
"What? You’re saying we’re up to sothing?" Xiao Shulan couldn’t believe the third sister was saying such things, as if she and her daughter couldn’t do without Ou Shihua and Ou Yanan.
Xiao Shuju pouted, "How should I know what you’re up to? Your daughter is strange enough as it is. If she really knew, why would she co here and bring humiliation upon herself?"
"Don’t talk nonsense. She doesn’t know anything about this. I didn’t tell you, so how could I possibly tell her?" Xiao Shulan argued angrily, "There’s no conclusion on this matter yet. Why would I tell her? Besides, you know that now I’m the one in charge of the Xiao Family and Changda. If Ou Shihua doesn’t co to , what use is it if he goes to soone else? Useless. He’ll have to co to eventually!"
Xiao Shuju found her reasoning sound and said before hanging up, "Since that’s the case, as long as Yueting understands what’s going on, there’s nothing much to worry about. It’s okay, I saw them but they didn’t see ."
"Alright, you take care and make sure my daughter is safe."
The sisters ended the call.
Xiao Shuju returned to the dining table, sat down, and saw Kang Yueting, who pretended as if nothing happened while she stepped out to make the call, suddenly looked up and said, "Third Aunt, let’s go back."
It appeared this young girl was putting on an act before.
Of course, Xiao Shuju could tell; this young girl clearly wanted to beco the Ou Family’s daughter-in-law, so how could she not care?
At that mont, Xiao Shuju felt so sympathy for her. Thinking of how she herself used to like Lin Jiale so much, she felt a sense of shared suffering with this young girl.
"Alright. Auntie knows a newly opened place with trendy and delicious dishes. Why eat vegetarian? That hairdresser was talking nonsense when they said your rounded and smooth face is a blessing. Much luckier than your older cousin. If I were the mother-in-law, I’d definitely choose you, not your bony older cousin who looks like a skinny chili pepper with no at on her face."
Kang Yueting’s face stiffened. This third aunt’s way of speaking was as poor as ever; her ability to comfort was far inferior to her ability to offend.
Xiao Shuju didn’t feel there was anything unusual about her words. She called for the waiter to prepare the bill.
Only then did she realize sothing had happened in the restaurant.
The sound of police cars stopping at the restaurant’s entrance.
The sound of ambulances followed.
Even Gu Nuan and their group, shielded by screens, heard the commotion.
Ou Shihua checked his watch, having already sensed sothing was amiss.
Madam had asked to pay the bill, and the waiter took Ou Chunhua’s mbership card to process it, but after a long while, neither the bill nor the card receipt had been brought back.
Now, hearing the sounds of police and ambulance sirens, Gu Nuan and the Ou couple were sowhat shocked.
If a diner suddenly fell ill, calling an ambulance would suffice, so why call the police?
And the police arrived first.
Ou Shihua stopped soone who seed in a hurry to leave and asked, "What’s happened?"
"Soone fell ill while eating, they got poisoned and are convulsing over there."
It truly frightened everyone!
In such a famous restaurant, soone actually got poisoned, and more terrifyingly, they had all just eaten a lot!
Cold sweat broke out all over Ou Shihua and Ou Chunhua.
Gu Nuan remained relatively calm, looking outside through a gap, seeing the area where people were gathered, not far from where they were.
