As soon as Shi Ye said this, the hall fell into silence again.

Gu Jinlan looked at him in surprise.

He had denied her before, and she guessed that, in addition to wanting to test her, he might also look down on her identity, thinking that she was not worthy of him and was not presentable enough.

After all, she married him only because Old Madam Shi thought that she had a good fortune and could bring him good luck.

If it weren't for the purpose of getting married, the Ye family would never be able to marry into the Shi family.

She couldn't even reach the threshold of the Shi family, let alone marry Shi Ye.

At this moment, Shi Kang couldn't utter a word.

When he rushed over just now, he did hear that it was his wife who was targeting Gu Jinlan in her words.

He didn't stop her because he was used to his wife's daily aggressiveness.

His wife's father was an official in the imperial capital. She usually looked down on her husband and complained every day that he was not as good as her cousin Shi Ye.

In the silence, Shi Xingran's babyish voice suddenly rang out, "Dad is right! Ranran, no one is allowed to say bad things about Mom!"

Everyone was stunned.

Everyone thought that Shi Xingran’s autism caused his delayed language development.

But today, he always makes a big splash.

A smile appeared in Gu Jinlan's indifferent eyes.

In fact, she didn't care how these people in the Shi family viewed her. When her identity in the Ye family changed, she was met with contempt and ridicule from many people around her.

In addition to the loss of her child, she also suffered from serious mental illness.

Now she has long since become indifferent to everything and has developed a strong heart. Other people's gossip can no longer hurt her in the slightest.

But at this moment, being protected by this father and son, I still feel extremely warm in my heart.

So this is what it feels like to be protected by others.

Shi Ye looked at Fan Wen with a cold gaze: "If Fifth Sister-in-law is not a frog in the well, how could she not know that Lan Lan was invited by Director Jiang of Ao Lington several times? In fact, you didn't even hear all the gossip. The relationship between Lan Lan and Director Jiang should be known to everyone in Ao Lington. If you are not a frog in the well, what are you?"

"I..." Fan Wen was speechless.

Faced with Shi Ye's domineering aura, she suddenly didn't know what to say.

Indeed, I have never heard that Gu Jinlan was personally invited to Aolington by President Jiang.

It is possible that someone else told her, but she didn't take it to heart and didn't remember it.

"Okay." Old Madam Shi said, "Lan Lan is indeed worthy of the position of Director of the Psychological Counseling Department. As for Aolington, I learned about it a long time ago. Director Jiang's daughter once suffered from severe depression and was indeed cured by Lan Lan while abroad."

"Lan Lan is capable in psychology. Whether she has a college degree or not doesn't mean anything."

"The Shiguang Group has always been committed to eliminating nepotism. I believe that Xiaoye, sitting in this position, will not knowingly commit such a crime."

"We are all a family from now on. I hope you can respect each other, help each other, and stop looking down on this or that all the time."

When she didn't recognize Gu Jinlan at first, she was worried that Gu Jinlan was the kind of woman who was deliberately trying to get close to Xiaoye, so she went to find Director Jiang to find out.

After hearing what the old lady said, no one said anything.

He Sifei, who was hiding behind Shi Hui, let out a long sigh.

She felt fortunate that her mother had pulled her aside in time. If she had continued to stand beside her fifth aunt to help, she would have been scolded by her seventh uncle.

Shi Xingran said: "My mother is Lan Xing, no one can look down on my mother!" The little guy looked proud.

"Lan Xing?" Shi Hui looked at Gu Jinlan in surprise, "Is it the famous jewelry designer Lan Xing?!"

Everyone else also looked at Gu Jinlan.

Gu Jinlan felt a little embarrassed.

She has always been low-key and doesn't like to be the center of attention.

She hadn't said a word since Shi Ye came downstairs, but she had been looked at from head to toe several times by these people from the Shi family.

It made her look like a gorilla in a zoo.

"Yeah!" Shi Xingran nodded heavily.

He Sifei finally couldn't help it, "Gu... Is Seventh Aunt really Lan Xing? Ranran, do you know who Lan Xing is?"

He is a world-famous designer!

She is the object of adulation among the socialites in the upper class society!

Nowadays, when celebrities gather together, whoever wears a product designed by Bluestar will become the focus of the party.

There is even a trend in the socialite circle that only those who own Blue Star's designs can be considered true socialites.

Limited edition brand-name bags and the like can no longer be used to show off.

Moreover, if Gu Jinlan was Lan Xing, how could Ye Jingwan not know?

Shi Xingran said: "Anyway, my mother is awesome!"

In fact, he didn't really understand how powerful Blue Star was, he just knew that it was very powerful.

Madam Shi was also shocked, "Lanlan, are you really Lan Xing?"

Even though the woman was old, she was still full of yearning for beautiful things, and she had always wanted to meet Blue Star.

Gu Jinlan nodded gently, "Yes, old lady."

At Yun Luoxi's wedding, her identity as Lan Xing was exposed, and it would surely spread soon.

"Why are you still calling me old lady? You should call me grandma!" The old lady was so happy that her face was full of smiles.

"Why didn't you tell grandma earlier? You kept it a secret from me before, saying that you and Lan Xing were good friends. I was hoping that you could introduce me to Lan Xing."

Gu Jinlan smiled sheepishly and said, "Jewelry design is just a hobby, not my main job, so I never told anyone about it."

Madam Shi held Gu Jinlan's hand and patted it gently. She liked her more and more. "Is it just a hobby? The granddaughter-in-law I chose is really excellent!"

Fan Wen came back to her senses from her shock and curled the corners of her lips.

Being so Versailles in front of the Shi family is so disgusting!

Fan Wen felt very uncomfortable, as if she had eaten a fly, but she had nothing to say.

Madam Shi looked at Shi Ye in reproach, "Xiao Ye, how could you let Lan Lan be a small supervisor in the group? If it gets out that Lan Xing is just a small supervisor in our Shiguang Group, people will laugh at her. Such a big group doesn't know how to treat talents well."

Shi Xuan's mother had previously questioned Gu Jinlan's ability to be the director of the psychological counseling department, but now she has completely shut up and was pulled aside by Shi Xuan.

No one questioned Gu Jinlan anymore.

Shi Ye explained: "Grandma, I only found out about this when I went to the capital this time. Lan Lan didn't tell me before."

Madam Shi rolled her eyes at Shi Ye and said, "We're together every day, but you don't even know this. You need to reflect on yourself!"

Shi Ye: “…”

When the old lady looked at Gu Jinlan again, her expression immediately changed to a loving smile.

It seems that now that I have a granddaughter-in-law, grandchildren are no longer important.

Anyway, her granddaughter-in-law can give her a smart and well-behaved great-grandson.

"Lanlan, I'm sorry. Grandma didn't recognize you before, and you suffered." Old Madam Shi held Gu Jinlan's hand tightly, "But you can only blame me for this matter, not Xiaoye."

Gu Jinlan smiled, "It's okay."

"I knew you were a considerate and kind child. Come, you can't refuse this time." Old Madam Shi took off the jade bracelet from her wrist.

He took advantage of the situation and put it around Gu Jinlan's slender wrist through the hands they were holding.

Seeing this, the other younger generations of the Shi family were all shocked.

Someone hurriedly asked, "Mom, are you going to hand over the jade bracelet now?!"
