Chapter 575: Hiding from My Mother at My Best Friend's House

Shi Youxuan called Jian Yixin, and just as she started, Jian Yixin said: "Blame me, blame me, it was I who had the Security Guard stop her."

"I thought if my mother couldn't get in, she would call me and scold me, but I didn't expect her to run straight to your house to settle scores with you. I'm sorry, Xuanxuan, I've caused you trouble again..."

Shi Youxuan interrupted her: "Stop with the polite words. I'm not troubled, but the person who is about to be in trouble is you. You'd better think about how to handle it."

Jian Yixin: "Shall I take Moli out immediately and hide at your place?"

Shi Youxuan:...

This was her solution?

What a lousy idea.

But for the moment, there really wasn't a better one.

Jian Yixin was different from her; if she didn't like Lady Jian, she could just talk back directly.

But that old mother with Menopause Syndrome was Jian Yixin's own mother, the mother who gave birth to and raised her!

If Jian Yixin said anything too harsh, Lady Jian would act as if the sky had fallen and cry right in front of her. Jian Yixin couldn't handle the power of her old mother.

Let alone Jian Yixin, in fact, if it were anyone else, they would barely be able to handle it.

Just now, even Shi Youxuan had almost failed to handle it.

But if one let her nag endlessly, it could drive a sane person crazy!

Shi Youxuan didn't have a better way either, so she said: "Fine, come over. Go out through the back gate of the residential complex; your mother shouldn't know about that road."

Jian Yixin: "Okay, okay, I won't talk to you anymore, see you in a bit."

The back gate of the residential complex was generally the entrance for sanitation vehicles. That road was broken and remote, and residents rarely walked that way, so she wouldn't run into Lady Jian.

Lady Jian dialed her daughter's number over and over again.

All that came from the phone was the "beep-beep—" of a busy signal.

At this moment, she actually wanted to call her son-in-law to ask, but Sheng Zerong's number had been blacklisted by her in a fit of anger a few days ago.

She couldn't ask her husband either; even if she asked, he wouldn't give it to her.

Lady Jian thought for a moment and dialed her son's number—"Sorry, the number you have dialed is powered off..."

The system prompt tone.

There was no other way, she could only go and try her luck again.

Arriving at the entrance of the residential complex again, she had originally prepared a speech, but it didn't come in handy.

The residential complex Security Guard didn't stop her at all and let the car in.

The car drove into the complex smoothly, and Lady Jian began to feel indignant again—she believed that it was Shi Youxuan playing tricks, and she had been fooled again!

If she wasn't the one stopping her, why couldn't she get in just now, but could get in now?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got: "Stop the car."

The driver stopped the car, and Lady Jian went back to settle scores with the residential complex Security Guard: "Tell me the truth, did you receive orders from Shi Youxuan just now to keep me from entering?"

The Security Guard was quite polite: "Hello, who is this Shi Youxuan you are talking about?"

Lady Jian:...

The Security Team leader reminded: "She is a long-time resident of our complex and also our property management boss's wife. You've been working here for two months and don't even know the boss's wife's name? Do you still want a promotion?"

Whether the new Security Guard wanted a promotion or not, Lady Jian didn't know.

But Lady Jian going back was definitely a mistake!

Because she discovered that she had been stopped again.

"You wait here, we need to verify with property management. If the boss's wife doesn't allow you in, you leave immediately."

Lady Jian felt so much regret; why did she come back for no reason?

Wasn't this just looking for trouble?

But it was too late to regret now; whatever she said was useless.

The Security Guard had already automatically categorized her as someone not welcomed by the boss's wife. Not kicking her out immediately was already being polite.

The team leader dialed the property management office, and property management then forwarded the call to Shi Youxuan. Shi Youxuan checked the time; Jian Yixin had already taken the child out.

Then she said to property management: "Let her in."

Lady Jian was full of anger, finally waiting for the notification allowing her to enter the complex.

When in her life had she ever suffered such indignity?

Especially suffering indignity from Shi Youxuan, whom she had always looked down upon.

When she was allowed to go, she didn't want to go anymore. Lady Jian tidied her appearance and said haughtily to the Security Guard: "I'm not going in anymore. Call the property manager over; I want to see the person in charge."

The property manager came.

Lady Jian took a check out of her bag: "I'm buying your company, name your price!"

The property manager was all smiles, with a very good attitude: "Sorry Madam, I am also just working for someone else, I am not the one in charge."

Lady Jian was displeased: "Didn't I tell you to bring the person in charge over? Since you aren't in charge, why did you come?"

The Security Team leader hurriedly explained: "That's right, the person in charge here is indeed the property manager, but you didn't say what the matter was. Our manager is in charge of other matters, but selling the company... he can't."

Lady Jian:...

She had originally wanted to buy the property management company to vent her anger, but now it was good, so much time had been wasted, and the person who came wasn't in charge.

To buy the company, she had to find Sheng Hanyu, she knew that, but she didn't dare!

Although Sheng Hanyu was a junior and had almost become her son-in-law back then.

But he was always cold, and she didn't dare to look for him. After thinking it over, she still had to find Shi Youxuan.

Arriving at the door of the house, she didn't even go to see her daughter; Lady Jian told the driver to turn the car around and go to Shi Youxuan's house to find her again!

"Come, let me hold Moli." Shi Youxuan took the child from Jian Yixin's arms and felt that the child had become much heavier.

Although Moli was being held in her arms, his little hand kept pointing upstairs, and he was making "oh-oh-wo-wo" sounds that no one could understand.

He wanted to go find Zichen to play and was already impatient.

Shi Youxuan handed the child to the nanny and let her carry him upstairs.

Sheng Zichen was acting up in the children's room; it was perfect that a little companion was going over to keep him company!

The two women were temporarily freed from the constraints of the children, drinking tea and eating snacks together, enjoying a rare moment of leisure.

The tea leaves were the West Lake Longjing that Sheng Hanyu had recently acquired, and the snacks were yam and red bean cakes and Beijing Eight Treasures made by the new cook.

Shi Youxuan picked up a piece, took a bite, and closed her eyes in enjoyment: "How wonderful it would be if I could enjoy afternoon tea like this every day!"

"Is it really that delicious?"

Jian Yixin also picked up a piece to taste—the flavor was not bad, but was it really as exaggerated as she made it out to be?

Shi Youxuan swallowed the pastry in her mouth, took a sip of tea, and then said: "I'm not just talking about the snacks, but the moments without the little devil by my side; it's just too good."

The little devil referred to Sheng Zichen.

This child used all his intelligence on being mischievous and playing a battle of wits with his mother!

For the first time, Shi Youxuan felt that her IQ seemed a bit insufficient when it came to dealing with her son.

The same method worked the first time, but it wouldn't work the second time.

Wang Yinghao and Sheng Jiang were not at home; the old couple had gone out to travel the world.

Shi Youxuan had signed them up for a luxury tour group; her original intention was to let the old couple go out for a trip and be romantic.

Her mother-in-law worked hard for this family all day long, never complaining, and she felt very guilty about it.

But the mother-in-law had only been gone for a few days, and she was already hoping for her to come back soon.

Theory is one thing, but actual practice is another.

Jian Yixin said enviously: "You should be content; Zichen is so smart. When he was Moli's age, he could already call out grandpa, grandma, daddy, and mommy, but my Moli can only say 'ah-ah-wo-wo'."

Shi Youxuan said: "At first, I also thought speaking early was an advantage, but later I saw it wasn't. Do you know how much he can talk? He can already tattle now, and he even makes up lies. When I try to discipline him, my parents-in-law even stop me..."
