When the Green Tea Female Side Character Wants to Ridicule the Male Lead - Chapter 12
Chapter 12
Dugu Xiaoling’s expression was not pleasant when facing Ruan Chacha. Bai Xin was a bit too proactive. She originally thought that Ruan Chacha would show her displeasure or start a scene as usual. However, to her surprise, Ruan Chacha not only remained indifferent but also seemed afraid of Dugu Mohan.
Bai Xin could tell that Dugu Mohan didn’t want to deal with her. She glanced at Ruan Chacha, who was sitting on the sofa, and felt that as long as Ruan Chacha was present, Dugu Mohan would be cautious. She wished Ruan Chacha would be considerate and leave, not to disturb their conversation.
“Chacha, right? I forgot to greet you just now. I’m Bai Xin.” Bai Xin seemed to belatedly discover Ruan Chacha’s presence.
Ruan Chacha rolled her eyes internally. Did she think everyone was a fool? She had been scrutinized several times; how could she forget?
She waved her hand and replied timidly, “It’s okay. I’m Ruan Chacha.”
Bai Xin smiled generously. “What setting spray do you use? I just brought back some setting sprays and foundations from abroad that you can’t find in China.”
She thought Ruan Chacha would be curious or ask about the brand, but Ruan Chacha just smiled awkwardly.
“I don’t use makeup. Your makeup looks great, unlike mine, which is so clumsy that I can’t even apply foundation,” Ruan Chacha said with a touch of sadness, lowering her head.
Bai Xin: “…” Why did that sound so uncomfortable?
Dugu Mohan understood what Ruan Chacha meant and couldn’t help but find it amusing.
Bai Xin felt a bit resentful. “Well, your skin is excellent. You must have a great relationship with Mohan, right?” She sarcastically hinted at Ruan Chacha.
Dugu Mohan’s alarm bells rang again, wondering why the conversation had shifted to him.
Ruan Chacha looked down with a sad expression and said, “Brother Mohan treats me well. It’s my misunderstanding that led to Brother Mohan not liking me now.”
Bai Xin didn’t expect her to say it directly in front of everyone. Dugu Mohan felt suffocated and couldn’t breathe.
“As long as Brother Mohan doesn’t stay away from home and lets me see him, I’ll be satisfied,” Ruan Chacha cried, covering her face.
Bai Xin again: “…” The implied meaning was that she was the woman mentioned, and Bai Xin felt the strange gazes from the servants and Dugu Xiaoling. She clenched her fists tightly.
Xi Le felt extremely distressed. Just as they got rid of one secretary, here came Bai Xin. Madam really had a tough time. She stepped forward to comfort Ruan Chacha.
Dugu Mohan’s face turned green: “???” Where did this woman come from?
“Ruan Chacha! Aunt is here; don’t cause any more trouble.” Dugu Mohan clenched his jaw, giving her a stern warning.
Ruan Chacha immediately stopped crying, hiccuping, and tears streaming down continuously. However, she dared not cry again, looking at Dugu Mohan with endless fear. If this was acting, she was undoubtedly a talented actress.
Dugu Xiaoling, despite not liking Ruan Chacha, leaned towards the weaker party. Ruan Chacha, after all, was a woman. How could he treat her like this?
“Enough!” Dugu Xiaoling pulled a stern face and loudly intervened with Dugu Mohan.
This startled Ruan Chacha. She was genuinely scared this time. Who knew Dugu Xiaoling would suddenly speak out? Wow! Green Tea Score +3! Amazing, Aunt! I love you, Aunt!
Dugu Xiaoling felt that she had startled Ruan Chacha, and she could imagine that Ruan Chacha was not having an easy time by Dugu Mohan’s side.
“Mohan, Aunt has never criticized you, but this time, you’ve really gone too far. Chacha is legally married to you. You can’t neglect your responsibilities.”
Dugu Xiaoling sternly lectured Dugu Mohan, and the butler and servants all nodded in agreement, reinforcing Dugu Xiaoling’s suspicions.
“Aunt, don’t listen to her nonsense. I really didn’t do much,” Dugu Mohan was completely powerless to refute.
Ruan Chacha spoke up, “Aunt, it’s not Mohan’s fault; it’s my problem. No matter what I do, it’s always wrong. Maybe Mohan still doesn’t like me.”
Dugu Xiaoling, feeling angrier, said, “If you don’t like her, why did you marry her? Why hurt her?”
“I didn’t…” Dugu Mohan protested.
Ruan Chacha immediately stopped Dugu Xiaoling from getting up to hit Dugu Mohan. “Aunt, it’s not Mohan’s fault. Besides, he didn’t marry me because he liked me. Grandfather arranged our marriage. I don’t blame Mohan; as long as I can see him more, it’s enough for me.”
Now, Dugu Xiaoling really wanted to hit Dugu Mohan. “If your grandfather asks you to eat sh*t, would you do it? If you don’t like it, can’t you say it? Who knows what you’re thinking with that cold face?”
At that time, the whole family thought that Mohan had tacitly agreed to the marriage, thinking that Ruan Chacha was indeed beautiful. However, after marrying her, it turned out she had a notoriously bad temper, causing trouble, cursing, and behaving like a shrew at the company every day.
Now, seeing her become so weak was unexpected for Dugu Xiaoling. It seemed that Ruan Chacha must have loved Mohan deeply before. There must have been a reason for her previous outbursts.
Dugu Xiaoling also had a bad temper. After all, with a large family and business, everyone treated her as a treasure.
Dugu Mohan stood up with a cold face and said, “Aunt, mind your words and actions.”
As soon as he spoke, Ruan Chacha knew that Dugu Mohan was in trouble. Haha, he was definitely going to get scolded by his aunt.
The Green Tea Score kept soaring. Truly, she had an amazing aunt. Ahaha…
As expected, Dugu Xiaoling exploded with anger. She grabbed a shoe and ran over to hit Dugu Mohan. Dugu Mohan was dumbfounded, instinctively distancing himself.
“You dare to dodge! If I don’t teach you a lesson for my brother today, I won’t be Dugu Xiaoling!” She brandished the shoe and charged toward Dugu Mohan.
Dugu Mohan also ran, with Dugu Xiaoling chasing him around the living room. Bai Xin quickly tried to stop Dugu Xiaoling, and the servants and the butler were also trying to intervene. The situation was out of control for a moment.
Ruan Chacha was almost laughing hysterically, following along and saying, “Aunt, don’t hit Brother Mohan. Otherwise, Brother Mohan will blame me. Aunt…” adding fuel to the fire.
After finally stopping Dugu Xiaoling, Ruan Chacha’s words rekindled her anger.
Dugu Mohan’s face looked like it was about to fall off. “Shut up!”
“He dares to! I think he’s itching for a beating! Is it reasonable to bully people? The rules of the Dugu family are not just for show. Don’t run away, or I’ll make sure you regret it.” Dugu Xiaoling was infuriated.
With just one nephew, the whole family pampered him, but in the end, they spoiled a cold-faced weirdo. Few could tolerate his strange temper. To outsiders, it seemed as if the Dugu mansion was located on a snow-capped mountain.
Unable to catch up with him, Dugu Xiaoling threw the shoe at Dugu Mohan. Initially, Dugu Mohan didn’t dodge, thinking that she might get over it if she vented a bit. Unexpectedly, Dugu Mohan sidestepped, and the shoe passed by him.
Dugu Xiaoling: “… Just wait for me. I’ll call your father and let him deal with you.”
Then she patted Ruan Chacha’s small hand. “Chacha, don’t worry. Aunt will get justice for you. This kid won’t escape. If he bullies you again, just call me, and I’ll teach this rotten kid a lesson.”
Dugu Xiaoling’s personality was probably influenced by her father, Dugu Mohan’s grandfather, with clear likes and dislikes.
To be honest, Ruan Chacha was a bit bewildered, not sure if she had gone too far. “Uh… Aunt, I’m actually fine. Brother Mohan, he…” She didn’t know how to say it. She couldn’t handle this situation!
“Don’t speak up for him. Wait for me to deal with him! Be obedient!” Dugu Xiaoling came and went in a hurry. After comforting Ruan Chacha, she left the villa.
“You rotten kid, wait for your father to deal with you.” Dugu Xiaoling was determined to turn her nephew’s shortcomings around. In the face of such an incident, she wouldn’t sit idly by.
Dugu Mohan: “???” What did he do??? He didn’t do anything at all!
“Aunt!” Dugu Mohan called out several times, but she didn’t stop.
Ruan Chacha quickly checked her Green Tea Score. Well, it had directly reached 160 points. Aunt was indeed amazing!
Bai Xin was bewildered and hurriedly caught up with Dugu Xiaoling. “Aunt Ling?”
Upon hearing Bai Xin calling her, Dugu Xiaoling finally reacted, almost forgetting about her.
“Xin Xin, Aunt Ling has something to deal with. You go back by yourself first.” Then she walked away.
Bai Xin: “….”
Leaving her alone in the cold wind, she came here intending to sow discord in Dugu Mohan’s marriage, to snatch him away. How did it turn into her trying to mediate?
