Tong Le forcibly pulled Wu Youyou aside. Wu Youyou wanted to retaliate, but Tong Le held her arm down and whispered, "If you hurt someone here, it will only backfire on you. It's better to lift her high and let her fall on her own."
At first, Wu Youyou didn't agree with Tong Le's approach, but after thinking it over, she realized it was a good idea. After all, she couldn't cause more trouble for Zong Jin.
Once Tong Le calmed Wu Youyou down, she approached Mo Kai Liang with a smile. "Hello, I'm Tong Le, a good friend of Lan Qingqing. She mentioned wanting to introduce you to us. Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together."
Although Mo Kai Liang had never met Tong Le before, he had heard of her; Ke Wenjie's wife was named Tong Le.
Mo Kai Liang remembered clearly that when Ke Wenjie married into the Tong Family, the whole village knew about it. Many relatives thought they could go to the city for the wedding. However, since those relatives were simple farmers, Ke Wenjie felt embarrassed and didn't allow his hometown relatives to attend the banquet in the city.
Even then, Tong Le had called all the relatives in the countryside, inviting them to come to the city for the festivities and offering to cover their food, lodging, and travel expenses. Yet, Ke Wenjie still refused.
At that time, Mo Kai Liang had a good impression of Tong Le. Although he had never seen her before, her reputation as a good sister-in-law preceded her. Now that he saw her in person, she was just as he had imagined—graceful and composed.
Mo Kai Liang greeted her with a smile. "Hello! I'm Mo Kai Liang."
He almost let slip the word "sister-in-law," but he reminded himself to keep his identity hidden from Tong Le.
Tong Le casually handed Mo Kai Liang her business card, and he quickly returned the gesture with his own.
Tong Le couldn't help but think that Lan Qingqing was really putting on a show.
Lan Qingqing explained casually, "Mo Kai Liang's company is not based here; it's in another province. He often collaborates with foreign companies as well."
At that moment, Wu Youyou chimed in from the crowd with a sarcastic tone. "Since you're so wealthy now, you can't just wear a simple cotton dress anymore, right? Hermes and Audemars Piguet should match up nicely!"
Wu Youyou deliberately directed her words at Mo Kai Liang. "Don't you think so? Lan Qingqing is carrying your child now; shouldn't you treat her well?"
Mo Kai Liang had no idea what Hermes or Audemars Piguet were. He didn't even recognize the bulky Rolls Royce parked downstairs; it was rented by Lan Qingqing and reportedly cost a fortune for just one day's rental!
Mo Kai Liang didn't think much of it and nodded eagerly. "Of course! I'll definitely buy something for Lan Qingqing."
Wu Youyou struggled to hold back her laughter while Lan Qingqing found it hard to keep a straight face. She discreetly pinched Mo Kai Liang's side, causing him to wince in pain.
Lan Qingqing felt overwhelmed; she had already rented a Rolls Royce to impress others, and now this foolish man was boasting again. She would have to find some high-quality replicas of Hermes bags and Audemars Piguet watches! What bad luck!
Wu Youyou continued teasing Mo Kai Liang. "I heard that Audemars Piguet skincare products are really expensive! And Hermes—didn't I hear their computers cost several thousand? Are you really going to buy something for Lan Qingqing?"
Wu Youyou held back laughter as she intentionally mixed up the brands; Hermes sold luxury bags while Audemars Piguet was known for luxury watches. But in her words, Hermes became a computer brand while Audemars Piguet turned into a skincare line.
In any case, everyone in wealthy circles knew what Hermes and Audemars Piguet were; she wanted to see how Mo Kai Liang would react.
As expected, Mo Kai Liang made another mistake. Being from the countryside, he had never heard of Hermes or Audemars Piguet; he thought Hermes sold horses and donkeys while Audemars Piguet dealt in jade and flowers.
Mo Kai Liang was eager to support Lan Qingqing's image and couldn't help but speak up again. "Of course! Skincare products and computers are nothing; how much could they possibly cost?"
