Priceless New Bride: Accidentally Offending The Dangerous CEO Chapter 296 - Making Her Feel Exceptionally Awkward

Chapter 296: Making Her Feel Exceptionally Awkward

Jiang Peihua said kindly, “La.s.s Anning, is that Rascal not taking good care of you? You weren’t this skinny when you came here previously. Look, your chin has become sharper too.”

“Mother, Rong Yan treats me very well, I just don’t gain weight easily.”

“Silly la.s.s, all you do is speak up for him.” Jiang Peihua pinched her cheeks and smiled affectionately and benevolently.

Her mother used to treat her with such affection too…

Tears welled up in Luo Anning’s eyes. Apart from the fact that Jiang Peihua constantly urged her to get pregnant, the latter truly treated her like her daughter-in-law.

Now that Mo Xiyan was there, she was undoubtedly showing her inclination towards Luo Anning.

“Mother… I… ” Luo Anning suddenly felt agitated.

Hearing the difference in her tone, Jiang Peihua thought that she had been mistreated and hence held onto her hands before patting her back gently to comfort her. “You don’t have to say anything else. I know. With me around, I won’t let you be mistreated. If anything happens, feel free to tell me. I’ll stand up for you!”

Rong Yan frowned slightly. He had also sensed the difference in her att.i.tude. Hence, he walked towards her and pulled her into his arms before asking softly, “What happened?”

Luo Anning took a deep breath and said with a lopsided smile, “Nothing, I just suddenly got reminded of my mother.”

“Silly child, I’m also your mother. You can confide in me and I’ll do you justice. Alright?”

Rong Yan was her only son and Jiang Peihua always wanted a daughter whom she could dote on. Unfortunately…

Luo Anning was polite and obedient, and was also her daughter-in-law. Hence, she would obviously dote on her like she was her daughter.

Luo Anning nodded agitatedly while Rong Yan smiled and rubbed her head. “Silly, since when were you such an emotional person?”

Luo Anning glowered at him and barked, “You’re the silly one! Mother just treats me too well so I got reminded of my mother… ”

The three of them were chatting harmoniously, making Mo Xiyan who was still standing at the side feel particularly embarra.s.sed.

As pale as a sheet, she bit her lower lip as her heart raced. The pain seemed to have overwhelmed her.

She wanted to go up and push Luo Anning away. In the past, she used to be the only person Rong Yan hugged.

He used to only smile and be gentle to her!

Yet, Luo Anning was enjoying everything now…

She was feeling an immense heartache. Why did he marry another woman even though I love him so much?

He once said that he would marry me. Why do I still love him so much after four years…

Luo Anning did not expect that she would make Mo Xiyan feel so embarra.s.sed because of how touched she was. When she found out that Mo Xiyan had not been invited to take a seat, she felt rather shocked.

She thought that Mo Xiyan was so arrogant that she would take the initiative to sit down.

Well at least when Mo Xiyan was around her and Rong Yan, she would always take the initiative to pick a topic to talk about.

After what seemed to be an eternity later, Jiang Peihua finally discovered that Mo Xiyan was still standing there. She waved and said in annoyance, “Butler Zhang, all guests are welcome.”

Butler Zhang had been serving Old Mr. Rong for years and he naturally knew the hidden meaning in Jiang Peihua’s words. Hence, he walked forward and said to Mo Xiyan. “Miss Mo, why are you still standing there? Hurry and take a seat!”
