Chapter 23 Acting Foolishly

  Pointing at herself, Jiang Meiwen had an incredulous look on her face, never expecting that her own daughter would scold her like this.

  Upon hearing her mother's questioning, Jiang Jingqi's nerves finally calmed down, realizing she had said something she shouldn't have, and quickly covered her mouth. Then, with a turn of her head, since her mother loved her so much, as long as she pouted slightly and spoke nicely, she believed her mother would forgive her.

  Jiang Jingqi pouted and walked to Jiang Meiwen's side, pulling her arm and coquettishly said, "No, I didn't mean that, not that at all!"

  Unexpectedly, Gong Li broke free from Gong Tianyou's hand and ran to a distance away from Jiang Jingqi, gloating, "Under the watchful eyes of everyone, you still dare to deny it. Hmph, mom, sister is scolding you!" Before she finished speaking, the little kid stuck out her tongue at her sister in defiance.

  Jiang Jingqi was furious, pointing at Gong Lichun, "Gong Lichun, just you wait, I'll tear your face to shreds."

  "I'm not afraid of you, come on!" Gong Li Chun has her parents backing her up, fearless.

  "Die, little kid." After saying that, he wanted to stretch out his short legs and kick her, but his hands were blocked by Jiang Meiwen. He stood still, only able to repeatedly mimic the motion of kicking her, with a face full of resentment.

  Hua Muqing and Zeng Ling, who were originally kneeling on the ground, had long since hidden behind the chair, afraid that if they weren't careful, they would be dragged in, which wouldn't be good.

  At this time, the Chanel lipstick that Gong Li Chun was holding in her hand suddenly fell to the ground with a "crack" and broke.

  "Ah, mom, look at her... my Chanel lip balm," one second ago, Jiang Jingqie was still tearfully staring at Jiang Meiwen and the Chanel lip balm that had already been trampled on the ground. The next second, she turned to Gong Lichun like a mother tiger, "Gong Lichun, go die!"

  Jiang Jingqi was already on the verge of collapse, and Jiang Meiwan could no longer hold her back. Her hands began to slip from her mother's grasp, and her body started to rush towards Gong Lichun.

  The little kid knew there was danger and escaped. She quickly hid behind Gong Tianyou's back with her hands and feet, and the two began to perform a chase scene again.

  Just as the two of them were chasing each other wildly, running around the obstacles in the living room, making a huge ruckus, the mistress of the house had finally reached her limit. She needed to take control of this out-of-control situation and with all her might, she furiously shouted, "Both of you stop right now..."

  But in the chaos, it was unclear who kicked the Chanel lipstick that had been knocked to the ground by Gong Li Chun, and just like that, the lipstick flew into Jiang Mei Wen's mouth with a parabolic trajectory, a single word "down" got stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say anything else.

  In an instant, everyone in the living room saw this scene and was immediately flabbergasted.

  "Mom..." Rarely, Jiang Jingqi and Gong Li Chun exclaimed in unison, looking at their mother with concern.

  "Mei Wan..." Supporting Jiang Mei Wan's shoulder, Gong Tian You's face had an unmistakable look of worry, gazing at his innocent and injured wife.

  Jiang Meiwen convulsed, her neck stretched out, her eyes slightly bulging, and her body slowly fell backwards onto the sofa.

  Huā Mù Qíng saw the situation, sighed, and today brought her too many shocks and surprises. She needed some time to digest it. Looking at Jiang Meiwen's appearance, she could even feel that the Chanel lipstick was not stuck in the mistress' throat, but in her own throat.

  At this time, Zeng Ling pulled her sleeve and hinted, "Mu Qing, let's slip away first! Let them solve their family affairs themselves."

  After finishing speaking, he pulled Huamu Qing's hand and the two of them slipped out quietly from the door with their heads down.

  At this moment, a figure rushed in from outside, it was Zuo Chen'an who had been waiting for Kong Tianyou in the study room for a long time.

  It had been a long time since he saw his uncle leave, and for a long time, he didn't see anyone, so he was a bit worried, and then he came out to take a look.

  Just like that, Huamu Qing who had just gone out and Zuochen An who had just come in brushed past each other. Also because Huamu Qing lowered her head, Zuochen An's anxious face was also missed.

  "What's wrong?" Left Chen An asked hastily as he entered the hall and sensed the heavy atmosphere.

  No one answered him, but Jiang Meiwen's mouth was slightly protruding due to the length of her lipstick.

  Looking at the situation in front of him, Zuo Chenan also slightly understood and asked nervously, "Auntie, are you okay?"

  Only then did Jiang Meiwen spit out a mouthful of lipstick under Gong Tianyou's pat on the back.

  Jiang Jingqi wiped off the lipstick from her mother's mouth, and with a smile on her face, she said softly, "Mom... Mom is fine, she just wanted to try my new lip gloss, Brother Chenan." Turning around, she raised an eyebrow at her mother, "Nothing, right, mom?"

  "Yes, I'm fine." Jiang Meiwen squeezed out these few words from her throat, but the words that came out were completely hoarse, making it a bit hard to hear.

  Jiang Jingqi smiled awkwardly, patted the hand of her sister Gong Lichun sitting beside her, and said intimately, "It's okay, Lichun and I were just joking around."

  Jiang Meiwen was frightened by her own voice and covered her mouth, not even daring to breathe.

  "Qī jiě, you're lying..." The child's nature was not good at lying, let alone to her 'arch-nemesis', she was even more unwilling to lie. Gōng Lì Chūn was just about to tell the truth to her sister's crush, but her mouth was covered.

  "I was just about to give you the lipstick, go and make yourself look pretty!" Jiang Jingqi stopped Gong Lichun's words in time, she waved the slightly damaged Chanel lipstick in front of Gong Lichun's eyes.

  "Really?" The little kid immediately smiled with joy, clasped his hands together, and was full of hope.

  "Of course, take it, my good sister." Jiang Jingqi handed over the lip balm with both hands, and Gong Lichun received it with a happy face. She was immediately attracted to the lip balm and threw everything else behind her mind, just playing with the lip balm in her hand.

  Gong Tianyou looked at Zuo Chenan with a hint of embarrassment and said, "Since everything is fine now, let's get back to work!" He wanted to shoo Zuo Chenan away not only for the sake of work but also because he didn't want him to see the chaotic scene in their home. To be honest, his position was quite awkward.

  "It's alright." Jiang Jingqi said with a seemingly obedient tone, her eyes filled with admiration as she looked at Zuo Chenan.

  "Meiwan, are you really okay?" Turning around, Gong Tianyou asked his wife gently.

  "Alright." Jiang Meiwen nodded and gave her husband a reassuring smile.
