Chapter 1593: Appreciation?
Old Master Bo sat on the sofa with both hands on his walking stick. His face was ashen.
Seeing this, Mother Chen’s happy mood instantly sank.
Even the smile on her face became unnatural.
After being stunned for a long time, she reacted and hurried forward to criticize the servants.
“What’s going on? Why is the servant here? Come, follow me to the back…”
When the servants saw her, their expressions changed drastically.
There was fear, disdain, anger, disdain, disgust…
Their expressions varied.
Seeing their expressions, Mother Chen was instantly enraged and her face turned cold.
“Hey, didn’t you hear what I said? Don’t you have ears? The servant is in the backyard. Hurry up and go!”
Her tone was impatient and her words sounded harsh.
The servants pursed their lips. “We don’t intend to do it here! We’re here to greet the family. After saying that, we’re leaving!”
A servant spoke first and didn’t give Madam Chen a good look.
Madam Chen’s face darkened. “You don’t intend to do it here? Why did you come here in the first place?”
“Of course we planned to work here in the beginning, but who knew that you were such a person? We would rather earn less every month than be bullied by you every day!”
Someone spoke again and couldn’t help but roll his eyes....
This time, Madam Chen’s voice turned cold. “What do you mean by bullying? I’ve already clarified everything in front of the reporters, yet you’re still causing trouble for me? If you don’t want to do it, scram… Leave. With your attitude, it seems like you won’t be disciplined in the future…”
At first, her words were a little careless. But when she thought of the old man sitting in the living room, she changed her words.
“Old Master, I don’t think these servants are sincere. Why don’t we let them go? We can find someone else…”
“I’m the one sitting here today and you’re speaking to me with such an attitude. If I’m not around, will you become worse?”
The old man, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke in a deep voice. He sat there without moving his eyelids.
Madam Chen paused, feeling a little nervous.
“Of course not, Old Master. As long as they do their jobs well, I won’t make things difficult for them.”
“Is that so?” Old Master said coldly.
However, when the servants heard Mother Chen’s words, some of them couldn’t help but sneer.
She looked up and said to the old man,
“Old Master, we’ve already made it clear. This is the money we earn. We’re not afraid of anyone controlling us, but Madam Chen… forgive us for not daring to work under her. Instead of being bullied and chased out by her in the future, why don’t we not start now? I’m really sorry for troubling you today.”
Someone took the lead and bowed to Old Master Bo before leaving.
Madam Chen was infuriated by the servants’ words and attitude.
She glared at them angrily. “You don’t dare to work under me? What do you mean?”
The servants ignored her and tried their best to avoid her.
“Wait a moment.”
Old Master suddenly called out to the servants.
She raised her head and looked straight at Madam Chen.
His gaze was cold. Although Old Master wasn’t usually that friendly with others, it was rare for him to treat her so coldly.
“Madam Chen, I trust you the most.”
Madam Chen nodded repeatedly. “Yes, I’ve always been grateful for Old Master’s kindness and appreciation.”
The old man sneered. “…Appreciation?”
Old Master’s sneer made Mother Chen’s scalp tingle.
She looked at the old man carefully. The emotions in his eyes were cold and filled with sarcasm.
After a long while, he sighed and closed his eyes, shaking his head repeatedly.
“Appreciation? Hehe… In everyone’s ears, this word will only make me seem even more stupid! I have eyes but can’t see to let an arrogant and obsequious person like you stay by my side for decades!”
Mother Chen’s mind went blank.
Even Bo Yuelin, who had entered from behind, froze on the spot.
“What happened?”
Bo Yuelin’s words snapped Madam Chen back to her senses.
“Yes, Old Master, did I… do something wrong? I’ve already made myself clear at the press conference just now. I shouldn’t… have said anything wrong…”
She paused and suddenly saw a few servants standing beside her. Her eyes were filled with hatred and she suddenly said sternly,
“Tell me! Did you gossip in front of the Old Master? What did I do to offend you? Why are you looking for trouble with me the moment you arrive?!… Oh, your motive is so obvious. Did you take someone else’s money to deliberately defame me?”
The servants’ eyes almost rolled into the sky!
All of them looked at her in disdain. “Who wants to defame you on purpose? Do you still need others to defame you? You still have the cheek to appear in front of the media to defend yourself. Don’t you find it embarrassing? You’ve long been in such a state. Do you think you’re an impressive big shot? You still want others to defame you on purpose?”
In reality, she was Shen Fanxing’s loyal fan.
Madam Chen had no idea what she was referring to. She only felt that the situation was extremely disadvantageous for her. She quickly took two steps towards the old man and said earnestly,
“Old Master, don’t be affected by their words. I’ve served you for so many years. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? Everything was fine in the past, but today… they must have been bribed by Shen Fanxing!
Not only did she take away all the servants in our house, she even arranged for someone to continue to annoy you. That’s too much…”
“So you were bribed by her too?”
Madam Chen was stunned. “What?”
The old man pursed his lips and picked up the remote control to continue playing the television.
In the interview, Madam Chen’s face was unrecognizable and she was crying.
Even after the press conference ended, Madam Chen still had no idea what went wrong.
But in the next second, the image on the television suddenly changed to another video.
It started with the scene of her eating fruits on the balcony in the afternoon.
With that one glance, Mother Chen’s eyes widened and her face turned pale.
