Chapter 569: Li Yufeng’s Plot! (6)

Ding Mengya caught only a glimpse of Li Yufeng’s face and maintained a cold expression. But the moment Li Yufeng sat down opposite her, a turn of her head allowed her to study Li Yufeng’s face clearly.
Her gaze focusing, she stared at Li Yufeng for a few moments before lowering her head. A hint of nostalgia crossed her eyes.
Putting on her clothes and sitting up on the bed, she strode toward Li Yufeng with her long, fair legs while fastening her robe. Even though she was past 50, she still had a good figure, and her whole self emanated an aura of elegance and classiness. As Li Yufeng watched Ding Mengya approach, her eyes flashed, and then she lowered her head.
Ding Mengya sat down in front of Li Yufeng and reached out toward the chrysanthemum tea that the service staff had brought over. After taking two sips, she turned her gaze onto Li Yufeng once more. “Madam Gu, this is… our first time seeing each other, isn’t it?”
When she heard this, Li Yufeng’s eyes narrowed.
Even though the Gu Corporation had a marriage agreement with the Si family, it had always been Gu Deshou who had gone to meet Ding Mengya. More than that, the differences between the two families were too big — even though Li Yufeng had always mixed around in the social circles of high society, she had never been able to reach the very top.
She lowered her head, then raised it once more with a smile on her face. “Madam Ding, you’ve got it wrong. Five years ago, I first saw you at a dinner event. You were wearing a purple coat, and you were so beautiful and elegant… maybe you didn’t see me.”
Ding Mengya raised her brows upon hearing this, seemingly unable to recall the event Li Yufeng was speaking of. Her current attitude was now making Li Yufeng clench her fists once more.
It was an event that she had wracked her brains to get to, and Ding Mengya… didn’t even seem to have placed any importance on it.
Ding Mengya thought for a moment, still unable to recall what Li Yufeng was talking about. Simply choosing to gloss over it, she politely switched the topic of conversation. “Then this time… Madam Gu, what are you here for?”
With that, Ding Mengya politely continued, “Zhengting and Qingyan have gotten married, and both of our sides should really gather together. But I’ve been busy lately, and neither of the two has said anything about it… I’ve been impolite on my part.”
Li Yufeng took a deep breath and made a huge effort to suppress the dissatisfaction she was feeling in her heart. It wasn’t being impolite; it was just Ding Mengya belittling the Gu Corporation!
Even though Li Yufeng was scolding Ding Mengya inwardly, she kept a smile on her face. “I didn’t mean that. I didn’t watch Qingyan grow up, and we’ve got some issues between the two of us. But I’m her biological mother, after all, so there are some things that she tells me exclusively.”
There were some things that Zhuang Nainai told Li Yufeng exclusively?
So, was Li Yufeng insinuating that everything she was saying right now was what Zhuang Nainai wanted her to say?
Ding Mengya furrowed her brows. The brows arched themselves nicely, but a sense of disappointment and despondency grew in her heart.
Five years ago, her testing of Zhuang Nainai had been a mistake on her part.
She was now trying her very best to maintain their relationship, but things between them were unexpectedly getting frostier and frostier.
It was so bad now that even though she knew that Zhuang Nainai was pregnant, she didn’t dare to visit nor show her concern for Zhuang Nainai for fear of agitating her.
She picked up her tea once more and took a sip from it. Smiling at Li Yufeng, she said, “Please, go ahead.”
Li Yufeng smiled back. “Actually, Qingyan is just insecure. You know, the two kids dated back when they were in high school, and then they broke up. She’s now pregnant, and we — as her relatives — are also quite distant from her while the only person she’s close to, her foster mother, is nowhere to be found…”
