My Hubby Can t Stop Pampering Me

Chapter 719: Chapter 721: Her Man (6)

“Anyone who didn’t know any better would think she’s the boss, and we’re all dependent on her for a living! You take offense at my language, but why don’t you take issue with how she treats others?”

Yu Sihua was left speechless by this retort. Of course, she knew her best friend’s temper. In Qin Zhimei’s eyes, even her big brother, Qin Zhiyou, was an unsuspecting villain, who’d stolen their mother’s authority. As for Xue Feifei, an obscure actress who had risen to fame through scandalous gossip, Zhimei didn’t even regard her as human.

It was normal for Qin Zhimei to talk like this. After all, she would never have a sister-in-law from the entertainment circle. In all likelihood, her brother would marry a woman of equal social standing. As long as Zhimei could pretend to be amicable on the surface, that was enough, right?

“Brother, Zhimei is different from this young lady.”

“What’s so different?” Yu Sixing turned around, “Is it because her family background isn’t good? Or is it because her acting embarrasses you?”

Yu Sixing had promised not to reveal his relationship with Xue Feifei, but hearing his sister’s biased and presumptuous comments, he felt annoyed.

“When you were dating Huang Qichu, his family situation wasn’t great. According to Zhimei’s reasoning, Huang Qichu is different from us. He’s just a professor’s son with nothing, even his postgraduate studies were only possible because of a scholarship. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have even been able to afford his studies.”

Huang Qichu’s parents were professors, and even his grandparents were from academia. They were a scholarly family. While they did not have significant assets, if Huang had studied in Europe without a full scholarship, the annual fees would have been at least 300,000, adding up to nearly two million in five years. Although it wouldn’t have completely prevented him from studying, it wasn’t a small sum at all.

“How can Qichu be compared to her?”

Yu Sihua instantly straightened her back. As the truly wealthy, they indeed looked down upon people from the entertainment industry, regarding them as messy. Even though Xue Feifei was a student at N University, she didn’t seem to be doing very well, and her family background surely wasn’t as prestigious as Huang’s. Huang Qichu came from a long line of academics, while Feifei paled in comparison.

“What makes her so different?” From the side, the silent Huang Qichu finally spoke.

Others might not know, but could he be unaware? Xue Feifei was once middle class too, and if it were not for her father’s debts, she could easily be a wealthy young woman. There was no need for her to earn her living through acting; she could have had a better life.

However, her acting skills were good, far better than Xiang Yirou’s.

Yu Sihua was startled, ever since they got married, Huang Qichu had always been docile and gentle towards her, never once disputing her words. But now, his expression was stern, devoid of his usual gentleness. “Being an actor is also a profession, who are you to look down on it? If you think there’s a gap between common families like ours and yours, then why did you bother getting together with me in the first place? Aren’t you tired of always looking down on others?”

“I didn’t mean it like that, I didn’t….”

She thought she had hurt his pride and hurriedly explained. For a moment, she felt as if she were back to when she first pursued Huang Qichu, his aloofness—a demeanor that disappeared once they’d confirmed their relationship, had now reemerged! This time for a woman who had nothing to do with her!
