On the way home with Jin Jianjian, Xiao Xingxing felt so distressed that he took even better care of her after returning home.

Zhuang Mingyue felt very distressed when she saw this, but she always thought that it would be safer to sterilize the cats, and having two cats at home was just right.

Seeing that Xiao Xingxing was too busy to pay attention to the two, Zhan Yan mentioned going out, "Social event, are you going?"

Normally, Zhuang Mingyue would follow him when he had time for social events, but he only brought it up today because he saw that she had nothing to do.

Zhuang Mingyue agreed without any hesitation, "Go!"

Zhuang Mingyue actually doesn’t like social occasions, nor does she want to see those hypocritical faces, but she feels that she can learn a lot from this.

Zhuang Mingyue was usually in a dominant position in social events. As long as he didn't want to drink, no one dared to persuade him. It was more like punching a card and showing his face than socializing.

The venue for today's social event was in the largest banquet hall in the city. It was not the first time that Zhuang Mingyue came here, but she still looked around with surprise.

Because of her behavior, several ladies at the dinner party looked down on her. Zhuang Mingyue saw all the contemptuous looks but said nothing.

People kept coming up to Zhan Yan to say hello, but no one paid much attention to Zhuang Mingyue.

Zhuang Mingyue picked up an exquisite dessert in the dessert area and was about to taste it when she saw those rich ladies approaching.

"Is this Mr. Zhan's wife? I thought she would be so stunning!"

Zhan Yan has always had a high reputation outside, and the outside world also speaks highly of his wife, and they all feel that only a strong combination of them is worthy of the Zhan family.

Zhuang Mingyue didn't feel inferior in her heart. She had always been like this. Zhan Yan never liked those superficial things, and she didn't dress up much today.

Knowing that she was going to meet such a group of snobs, Zhuang Mingyue would have taken out the most expensive and gorgeous clothes long ago.

Zhuang Mingyue didn't say anything, and the rich ladies became even more excited.

"Why aren't you talking? Did you seduce Mr. Zhan to get your current position?"

"I think it's more likely that she's pregnant with Mr. Zhan's child, and she won't give in!"

……

Several people were talking at the same time, making Zhuang Mingyue's head hurt. The delicate dessert in her hand suddenly didn't smell as good anymore.

Zhan Yan noticed Zhuang Mingyue's movements and thought that she just didn't like to get along with those rich ladies and was completely unaware of her current distress.

Having a headache from the sarcastic remarks of these rich ladies, Zhuang Mingyue said helplessly, "Are you guys saying the grapes are sour because you can't eat them?"

Zhuang Mingyue had heard about what was going on in the circle of rich wives. Everyone was competing for power and status, but in fact, there were more and more scandals in their families.

This first made Mrs. Jin, who worked in real estate, unhappy. "What do you mean by that? Do we really need to be jealous of you?"

Zhuang Mingyue snorted coldly, "I didn't say that, I'm just afraid one of you is really jealous!"

Before, Zhuang Mingyue was unwilling to pay attention to these gossiping rich ladies, but after getting to know Mrs. Fan, she felt that she was a pretty good person, and gradually changed her objective impression of these rich ladies.

I used to pretend I didn’t hear what they said, but now I feel that birds of a feather flock together. Why should I just swallow my anger in silence?

This change was also due to some inspiration from Mrs. Fan. She is a straightforward person who is unwilling to suffer humiliation.

Mrs. Jin was so angry that she wanted to stamp her feet. "You are a shameless person who relied on your youth to get to the top. What qualifications do you have to criticize us? We all worked hard to accompany our husbands from being young and beautiful to being the yellow-faced women we are now!"

Zhuang Mingyue could probably guess now what Mrs. Jin cared about, but she just didn't want to suffer the anger here.

Zhan Yan also noticed that Mrs. Jin's reaction was not right, and it seemed that she was cursing at Mingyue, so he strode forward and protected her behind him.

Seeing that it was Zhan Yan who came, Mrs. Jin did not restrain herself. Their Jin family is one of the most prominent figures in the real estate industry. Why should she be afraid of someone from the Zhan family!

Besides, she just didn't believe that Zhan Yan would offend her for a little vixen!

"Boss Zhan, you have to take good care of your young wife. We just made a few jokes and she refused to listen."

The group of wealthy ladies behind Mrs. Jin were afraid of the Jin family's power and followed suit.

"That's right, Mr. Zhan, please take care of it!"

"Mrs. Jin said a few words to her because she felt extremely wronged. We didn't bully her!"

"A man as smart as Mr. Zhan will definitely know right from wrong."

……

The noisy chatter of a group of women made Zhan Yan feel annoyed.

He turned around and saw Mingyue with a wronged look on her face, and he knew that things were not as Mrs. Jin and the others said. He still knew what was going on with his wife.

Mrs. Jin was still not giving in. "Mr. Zhan, you must take good care of your wife today and at least give us an explanation!"

Zhan Yan knew that the Jin family, who were in real estate, especially Mrs. Jin, always brought a group of rich ladies around to cause trouble for others. Now they were really bold and found trouble with Mingyue.

"Why don't I explain it to you?"

The intimidation in Zhan Yan's eyes made Mrs. Jin's new spirit tremble. In fact, she was afraid of the power of the Zhan family, but she still had a reputation in front of so many people, and she absolutely could not lose in momentum.

Zhuang Mingyue could see that Zhan Yan was angry and the consequences were serious, so she quickly pulled him back and whispered, "It's actually not a big deal."

The more Mingyue said this, the more Zhan Yan felt that things were not that simple. Could the Zhan family be easily bullied? Besides, Mingyue was his wife!

Mrs. Jin thought Zhuang Mingyue was saying something bad about her to Zhan Yan. She glared at her and then looked at Zhan Yan with a smile, "Boss Zhan, I'm not deliberately trying to argue with you. I just think that we are all well-known people in the circle, so we should just give each other a way out."

This was already a big concession made by Mrs. Jin, but Zhan Yan still looked disdainful and asked, "Who should give whom a way out?"

Outside, he is the only one who gives others the chance to step aside. How can there be any talk of mutual giving?

Mrs. Jin's face turned pale instantly. She didn't expect Zhan Yan to protect the not-so-good Zhuang Mingyue so much!

When Mr. Jin saw his wife confronting Zhan Yan, he immediately thought of his wife's mouth and felt that something bad was going to happen.

Mr. Jin's timely arrival prevented Mrs. Jin from saying the next words. She twisted her body and said with dissatisfaction, "Husband, it's obviously..."

Mr. Jin, who had long been impatient with his wife, yelled at her without caring about Mrs. Jin's dignity, "Shut up!"

Mrs. Jin's face turned pale and blue after hearing this shout. She was angry and helpless, and she just stared at Zhuang Mingyue with hatred.

President Jin walked over with a smile on his face, "President Zhan, Mrs. Zhan, I know what my wife is like. Let me apologize to you on her behalf."

Who would have thought that Zhan Yan would not even give President Jin face? "This doesn't seem reasonable."

Zhan Yan’s meaning was very clear: the person who should apologize should be the one who made the mistake.

Mrs. Jin had never suffered such an injustice before. She had already lost face, and now she was holding back her tears.

Seeing Mrs. Jin's aggrieved look, Zhuang Mingyue thought that it was enough. She pulled Zhan Yan's sleeve but saw that his eyes were dark. It seemed that she could not stop him.

Mrs. Jin had no choice but to apologize to Zhuang Mingyue reluctantly.
