Chương 58: Young Madam Feng (2)
And so it seemed like Tang Moyu's cold and harsh words had struck a nerve on Xing Yiyue as the latter, politely excused herself, telling them to have an enjoyable night. Tang Moyu didn't bother to respond but gave her a look that said 'what the hell are you waiting for? Go now.'
Thankfully, Xing Yiyue didn't stay for too long and left them in peace. Once she was gone, Li Meili snorted, which was very unladylike in her status, but she didn't give a damn. Dare to insult Tang Moyu? Xing Yiyue must be overestimating herself as Young Madam Feng!
"Wow, such words coming from a whore herself. I can't believe Feng Tianhua cast you away for that scheming woman!" Li Meili scoffed and rolled her eyes. No wonder people kept comparing Tang Moyu and Xing Yiyue throughout the past years, because the latter didn't use her head properly.
"Drop it, Meili. She's not worth the trouble." Tang Moyu calmly replied as she looked around.
Now that she had met Lin Qianrou and seen Xing Yiyue, she had no interest in socializing with the other guests. Although she admitted, meeting Lin Qianrou was something she looked forward to.
Normally, most commoner women who were married to rich businessmen were gold diggers or looking for an elevation on their status by marrying their husbands, like Xing Yiyue did, but not Lin Qianrou.
If Xing Yiyue had a decent mind, she would have avoided confronting Tang Moyu like this, so people would stop talking about the two of them, but no, that woman was foolish enough to dare to humiliate Tang Moyu at this banquet.
Didn't she realize that she just gave everyone a good show tonight?
"Stupid woman." Li Meili muttered before passing the fruit juice she ordered to Lin Qianrou.
"This is actually the first time I've seen Madam Feng talk like that. I never imagined that she would be like this…" Lin Qianrou asked.
"That's why I told you not to listen to the rumors about Moyu!" Li Meili exclaimed. "They talked nonsense about her and yet wouldn't point out how Xing Yiyue sneakily seduced Feng Tianhua to marry her. A woman who shamelessly entered an affair with an engaged man… what kind of woman did you think Xing Yiyue would be?"
Lin Qianrou shrugged. She actually thought of Xing Yiyue as a nice woman before.
"Enough of her. She already ruined this party with her presence, but we can't allow her to ruin our night!" Li Meili sounded really annoyed and had enough of it already.
Lin Qianrou giggled and agreed with her, while Tang Moyu shared Li Meili's sentiments.
It didn't matter anymore if she didn't end up as Madam Feng, because having her little buns was enough for her to be happy with this life. As long as no one would dare to hurt them nor take them away from her side, Xing Yiyue's words and insult wouldn't affect her.
They watched from the sidelines as some women dared to take the dance floor with their friends, laughing and giggling with each other as they tried to teach each other how to dance. Tang Moyu looked around the banquet hall with boredom. Beautiful women were everywhere, some were wives, some were daughters of wealthy businessmen, hoping to make an acquaintance.
Women flitted around in silken dresses, their colors ranging from bright, sunny yellows to midnight blacks. The bright lights around them made their diamond necklaces glitter, enough for everyone to notice their wealth and social status.
Tang Moyu had to admit that she felt relaxed now compared to the past weeks she spent working to save Tang Enterprise. A little more and she would be able to own the majority of the shares, giving her absolute control on the finances and operations of the company.
As soon as she reached her first goal, she planned to procure her good friend from overseas, Gu Yuyao to work at Tang Enterprise as its new CFO.
Throughout the banquet, Li Meili took time to introduce Tang Moyu and Lin Qianrou to those women whom she knew would never look down on the fallen empress and the commoner wife of Xu Wenyang.
Then it was time for dinner to be served. The food had come and gone so quickly that it made Tang Moyu wonder if her children had already eaten theirs by this time.
"Missing the twins?" Li Meili asked, knowing that Tang Moyu was starting to miss her little buns.
"Yes." The empress easily admitted. In front of Li Meili and Lin Qianrou, she didn't need to pretend that everything was alright.
"Why don't you give them a call? I'm sure they also miss their mommy." Li Meili winked at her.
Tang Moyu sighed and went to a vacant balcony where she could make a phone call to her children.
"Hello?" It was Qin Jiran's voice whom she heard from the other line.
"Hello, Mr. Qin. I was just wondering if I could talk to my children for awhile?" She said in a low voice, hoping that none of the other guests would try to eavesdrop on her call.
"Of course," Qin Jiran told her exuberantly. "Xiao Bao! Little Star! Come and talk to your mother!"
"Hi, Mommy!" Tang Moyu heard her daughter's voice. "Are you enjoying the party?"
"Very much. In fact, Mommy made a new friend tonight." Tang Moyu murmured.
"That's great, Mommy. You should bring her home so we could meet her, okay?" Little Star's laugh made Tang Moyu feel a little better.
"And Mommy shouldn't drink too much!" She heard her son say in the background. A warm smile bloomed on her lips, knowing that her loved ones were waiting for her at home.
"Alright, give the phone back to your Uncle Ji and tell your brother not to sleep too late. Love you."
"Actually, Little Star has already given the phone back to me," Qin Jiran laughed, which made Tang Moyu speechless.
"Did you hear what I said?" She asked.
"Not all, just the last part." Qin Jiran admitted.
Tang Moyu groaned to herself. Why did she feel like someone tricked her?
