Chapter 242 - The Way You Treat My Brother's Guest
Fu Hua was surprised that she was already at his place, nevertheless, he said to her, "I'm still at the office but I will be back soon. Your sister-in-law is at home."
After speaking with her, Fu Hua granted permission to let her in, without knowing she didn't come alone.
Jia Li was sitting on the couch in the living room with Ocean plopping on the floor beside her. Ocean didn't have her eyes on the TV like Jia Li but was busy looking all around quietly.
Jia Li and Ocean heard the approaching footsteps that sounded more like female heel shoes ???? they turned their gazes over towards the direction of the entrance.
Ocean didn't immediately start barking, instead she waited till she saw FangSu and Bai Jun before barking and that shit scared the hell out of the two young ladies.
FangSu and Bai Jun had just stepped into the house with a look of admiration for the interior decors and had managed to step foot into the living room when they heard the loud barking from Ocean.
They were stopped in their tracks as their smiles disappeared and were replaced with a scared look..
Jia Li was surprised to see them and it took her a few seconds to react. She got Ocean to calm down and Ocean stopped barking but she was staring at FangSu and Bai Jun in high alert.
FangSu and Bai Jun slowly calmed their racing hearts down, as they didn't expect to see a dog in the living room.
"I'm sorry Ocean scared you." Jia Li immediately apologized as she got up from the sofa with an apologetic gaze on FangSu and Bai Jun.
FangSu was the first to react. She glanced at Jia Li angrily and rebuked her in a stern tone, "Were you trying to scare us to death? And how can you bring a dog into the living room, where are your manners?!"
Jia Li was taken aback by her output of anger. She had already apologized and there was no need for her to be so rude. But this act of hers confirmed Jia Li's doubts that FangSu didn't like her in any way. This was far beyond the jealousy Fu Hua thought it was.
Right, when FangSu was berating Jia Li, Ocean started barking at her and attempted rushing towards her but Jia Li was alert and immediately called for her to stop.
FangSu and Bai Jun thought Ocean was almost going to rush to their side and immediately screamed in shock.
The Housekeeper and a few of the servants heard the commotion in the living room and immediately rushed out in fright.
They saw the unfamiliar female guests staring wide-eyed at Ocean, who seemed to have a ferocious gaze at them and their Mistress who trying to calm Ocean down while rubbing his back soothingly.
"Madam, what happened?" The housekeeper asked from the side with a worried gaze. She didn't dare to approach her in a close range for fear that Ocean might attack her since she seemed to be riled up.
"It's nothing." Jia Li replied.
"What do you mean by nothing? Are you waiting for your dog to attack us before you send it away?!" FangSu asked angrily.
Jia Li glanced at her before moving her gaze to the other female who was staring at her with an unfriendly gaze and just then, heavy footsteps were heard and the two soldiers who saw when FangSu and Bai Jun walked in, entered the living room.
"Ma'am, did something happen?" One of them asked with a calm gaze.
"Nothing. Take Ocean back to her kennel." Jia Li said after giving one final last rub to Ocean before the soldier came to take her.
Ocean was reluctant to leave but she had to follow Jia Li's orders. But when she got to where FangSu and Bai Jun were standing, she barked at them and the two young ladies screamed and shifted away in fear.
"Jia Li or whatever your name is? Is this the way you treat my brother's guests?" FangSu asked as she dragged Bai Jun with her and walked towards Jia Li.
"I'm sorry about that." Jia Li apologized again. She was feeling disheartened by FangSu's rude behavior. She could feel the discontentment in her tone.
FangSu glared at her before taking Bai Jun's hand to sit on the sofa at the other side.
"Madam..." The housekeeper called out to Jia Li worriedly. She couldn't believe that someone had the guts to be rude to their mistress in her house.
"It's okay, she is Fu Hua's sister. Serve them some snacks." Jia Li ordered before sitting tiredly as she pressed her temples. She could feel an incoming headache.
The housekeeper gave her a worried glance before leaving with the other servants that came out with her.
Bai Jun sat beside FangSu and fixed a scrutinizing gaze on Jia Li. This was the first time she was taking a good look at her since she first stepped in.
She was curious to know what kind of woman Fu Hua married and when her gaze came to Jia Li's baby bump, she was fueled with jealousy and hatred.
She cursed Jia Li in her mind for being intimate with Fu Hua and going on to become pregnant.
Jia Li felt Bai Jun's gaze on her and looked over. She didn't know who she was for her to be staring at her with malice but she guessed she was FangSu's friend.
Jia Li wondered if Fu Hua knew his sister was coming to the house. She wanted to text him but she discovered her phone was not with her.
The housekeeper came back with two other servants who were holding steel trays with different types of light dishes on them.
The housekeeper stood at the side and watched the servants serve the dishes to FangSu and Bai Jun. When the servants were through, they left.
"Sister-in-law, please don't mind the poor treatment. Eat something." Jia Li said to FangSu with a polite gaze because she was scared of offending her.
FangSu was still angry with her and since she didn't like her, it was normal for her not to forgive her.
"I'm not interested in your food, I will look around first while waiting for my brother." FangSu said as she pulled Bai Jun to stand up with her.
