Stewardess Liang broke out in a cold sweat on her back. "Ah, you've noticed?"
"I'm really embarrassed. I've been buying too much stuff lately. Since I can't waste it, I... Please forgive me, Miss! I promise I'll be more economical in the future."
Shen Shiyu narrowed her eyes as she looked at the sincere expression on the woman's face.
"Fine, I'll forgive you this time. Hurry up and go."
"Okay, okay. I'll go right away."
Stewardess Liang had just opened the door when she was stopped by the annoying girl behind her.
But to curry favor, she had to force a smile and turn around.
"Miss, do you have any other instructions?"
Shen Shiyu smiled sweetly. "I'd like to have deep - fried pork slices in sweet and sour sauce for lunch."
"Sure, I'll be back right away."
After watching the door close, Shen Shiyu immediately got up and followed in her slippers.
"Playing tricks on me? There must be something fishy about Aunt Liang!"
When she got out, she saw the elevator moving up and stopping on the 12th floor.
Shen Shiyu murmured to herself, "If she's going out to buy groceries, she should go down. Why is she going to the 12th floor? Does she have an old lover?"
Taking advantage of the elevator on the side just arriving, she quickly got in.
When the elevator door opened, she could faintly hear someone talking.
Shen Shiyu quietly hid behind a big pillar and peeked out.
"I can't accept this. It's embarrassing," Shen Ximan declined politely.
Stewardess Liang waved her hand cheerfully. "Please take it! I made these myself today. I'm getting old and don't eat much sweet stuff. Since I was out shopping, I thought I'd bring them to you."
Not wanting to be polite any longer, Shen Ximan accepted it.
Her gentle and elegant demeanor made her extremely approachable.
"I hope you'll like it. If there's anything you want to eat, just tell me. I'll cook it and bring it to you. It's so convenient since we're neighbors!" Stewardess Liang's smile was so wide that the corners of her mouth almost reached her ears.
Shen Shiyu stared at the scene in shock.
Wen Jinrui was actually living in the same apartment building as her! And this Aunt Liang was currying so much favor with her. They must have known each other for a long time.
"Good for you, you disloyal wretch! You've been hiding this from me?"
Her eyes were blood - red, and she gritted her teeth in anger.
After Stewardess Liang left, Shen Ximan deliberately glanced at the pillar closest to the elevator and hooked her lips in a meaningful smile.
She had seen Shen Shiyu long ago and just pretended not to.
This was good. She didn't have to find another opportunity to lure her into the trap.
Living in the same apartment building, Shen Shiyu would come to curry favor with her sooner or later.
Carrying the mango pomelo sago, Shen Ximan closed the door and walked into the house. Without hesitation, she poured it into the toilet and flushed it away.
Stewardess Liang came out of the elevator, still immersed in the joy of just now. If things went on like this, she would soon be able to get rid of the Shen family. Maybe she could even be a maid for Miss Wen.
"Yo, what's making you so happy?"
Shen Shiyu crossed her arms and leaned against the entrance of the apartment, sneering.
This really gave Stewardess Liang a big scare. She almost dropped her shopping basket.
"Miss... Miss, why are you here?"
She scoffed. "I'm the one who wants to ask you why you went to the 12th floor?"
This question scared Stewardess Liang half to death.
Did she see what just happened?!
"Did you see it wrong, Miss?"
Shen Shiyu stepped forward menacingly, grabbed her curly hair, and said, "What are you pretending to be stupid for? I'm not deaf or blind. I saw it clearly just now! You still want to lie to me!"
"I'm so disappointed. My mom and dad used to treat you so well. Now that our Shen family is in decline and your salary is less, you're wagging your tail and trying to find someone else to rely on? You're really an ungrateful wretch!"
Stewardess Liang's little scheme completely collapsed. Tears welled up in her eyes from the pain. She felt as if the scalp on her head was about to be torn off.
She pleaded with tears streaming down her face, "I'm wrong, Miss! I'm really wrong!"
"It was all because I was temporarily blinded by that woman's sweet talk. Please forgive me this time, Miss!"
Shen Shiyu let go of her viciously.
Stewardess Liang thought Shen Shiyu was being soft - hearted. Before she could catch her breath, she received a solid slap on the side of her face.
It hurt like fire.
"My good sister is not that kind of scheming woman! You old hag, what are you spouting nonsense for? Aren't you ashamed!"
Stewardess Liang was so dazed from the slap that her eyes were full of stars. If it weren't for the handrail behind her, she would have definitely slumped to the ground.
"Good... good sister?" She asked in a daze.
This question piqued Shen Shiyu's desire to brag.
She put her hands on her hips and tilted her head up, looking extremely proud.
"What, you've been currying favor with others like a lackey and you don't even know this piece of news? You're really useless, Liang!"
She poked Stewardess Liang's shoulder with her index finger, her tone full of disdain.
"Since I'm generous, I'll tell you the relationship between me and that woman just now. She is Wen Jinrui, the female CEO of Ahaire. We're very good girlfriends."
"You even dared to try to curry favor with my girlfriend. Do you think you're brave enough? Or do you think you have the ability to be her maid? Don't flatter yourself! Stay obediently in our Shen family, and I'll act as if this never happened."
Stewardess Liang stared at her in disbelief, covering her swollen cheek. She murmured to herself in confusion, "The CEO of Ahaire? But she told me she was just a general manager in a foreign trading company!"
Shen Shiyu laughed loudly. "You're really stupid!"
"A servant is just a servant. You don't have any brains at all."
She rubbed the tears that had come out of the corner of her eyes while laughing. "People with such high status would never tell you the truth. They're all very low - key. Now do you know who you should curry favor with?"
After all, Stewardess Liang had worked in the Shen family for decades. She knew something about Shen Shiyu's personality.
Shen Shiyu never made friends with people without status or identity.
If that Miss Wen was really the female CEO of Ahaire, she had to firmly hold on to her current position as a maid.
Maybe Shen Shiyu could make a comeback with the help of this good girlfriend!
Maybe the Shen family could regain its former glory!
"Miss, it's all my fault. I apologize to you."
Stewardess Liang knelt on the ground without any dignity and kowtowed to her.
"You can punish me however you want, but please don't drive me away! I promise you, this kind of thing will never happen again!"
Shen Shiyu really enjoyed the feeling of being highly regarded.
It was as if she was a leader, a helmsman.
She twirled her hair and said lightly and proudly, "Fine, I'll spare you this time. I'll also keep this a secret from my dad and mom. Do your job well and don't play any tricks."
Stewardess Liang kowtowed a few more times gratefully.
"Thank you, Miss! Thank you, Miss!"
