"Applause."
The words of Mrs. Chen were drowned out by the sound of clapping.
Startled, she looked up abruptly.
Si Fuqing strolled into the room.
The corners of her eyes twinkled with amusement as she clapped her hands leisurely. "You're not entirely stupid, it seems."
"How did you get in here?" Madam Chen shot up from her seat, furious. "Who gave you permission to enter? Get out! You think you can do anything because you're involved with Mr. Liu?"
"It seems you haven't grasped the reality of your situation," Si Fuqing's eyelashes fluttered down as she gave a soft chuckle. "Do you think the Chen family can still stand on its own?"
Mrs. Chen continued to rant, "What are you blabbering about, you little wretch?"
The head of the Chen family furrowed his brow, struck with sudden horror. "It's you?!"
The Chen family had already been weakened after losing a contract with the Yu family, but that hadn't struck at their core.
