CHAPTER 61: RUTH DEFENDING LUIS

The barbecue restaurant downstairs in the community was Lily’s favorite. The wife, who was used to saving money and therefore somewhat stingy, was surprisingly generous when it came to this place.

Inside the private room, the mother and daughter were chatting and laughing. The door was pushed open, and the eldest sister Nancy walked in.

The eldest sister-in-law, who was over 170 centimeters tall, was the center of attention wherever she went. This model-level height alone made her stand out in a crowd, and what was even more stunning was that her appearance was also very beautiful. Her features were exquisite, extremely similar to Penny Tai at the peak of her beauty.

Her figure was completely devilish in proportion, with curves in both the front and back. She was not like ordinary slightly thin women; her breasts were at least a C cup size, standing proudly and quite impressively. Her figure could be described as a perfect combination, captivating everywhere with no flaws to be found.

The upper body was just an ordinary short sleeve, very casual, yet she could still wear it with a myriad of charms. The deep V neckline revealed a hint of cleavage and sexy collarbones. Her entire body exuded the charm that a woman in the prime of her youth should have.

The lower body was paired with denim shorts that reached the top of her thighs. Her legs were long, snowy white, and as tender as soft tofu. For foot fetishists and leg lovers, she was absolutely queen-level.

Such beautiful legs, if paired with black stockings under formal wear, would be pure office lady temptation. Her cold, aloof older sister charm was not inferior to any celebrity.

As soon as Nancy sat down, she said with a laugh, "Lily, why did you choose this place?"

Lily smiled and said, "Haven’t had it for a while, was craving it. By the way, where’s brother-in-law?"

"Him? He’ll be here in a bit. He’s nearby looking at some PS gaming equipment or something."

As she spoke, Nancy took out her small bag. She owned three designer bags in total, and her favorite was this newly purchased LV one. It cost over twenty thousand dollars and was also very flashy.

"Mom, I don’t have any money left on my Whatsapp. This money is for little sister’s studies."

Nancy took out five hundred dollars. Ruth glanced at it and accepted it, but still said with slight dissatisfaction, "Little sister’s tuition and miscellaneous fees have already been paid. You’re only bringing it now. Luckily Luis was busy running around, spending money and effort to get things done."

Nancy was stunned. "Luis? He hasn’t even started working yet. Where did he get the money?"

As they were talking, the door to the private room was pushed open. Daniel and Luis, who had met at the entrance, walked in together.

Daniel was still dressed very flamboyantly. He couldn’t be considered some handsome man; that greasy, powdered feeling was very strong. No matter how you looked at him, he radiated an air of a spoiled wastrel.

As soon as Daniel sat down, he said brashly, "Luis, you’re going back to work in a couple of days. Bring your brain and think carefully. Don’t cause me any trouble, understand?"

In the past, the mother-in-law would have immediately joined in on the attack.

But this time, Ruth narrowed her eyes. Through Luis’s brainwashing, she found this outwardly strong but inwardly weak eldest son-in-law increasingly displeasing. She immediately said:

"What trouble? Luis was wronged, and you’re still blaming him?"

Nancy immediately said, "Mom, he completely lacked awareness at work. Stopping his own boss’s wife, wasn’t that just asking for trouble?"

Before she could even finish her sentence, Ruth gave her a look of disgust and said angrily, "You should talk. Daniel, what kind of shitty connection did you pull? The more I think about it, the more something feels wrong."

"What’s wrong!"

Daniel was the one who felt something was wrong. What was up with the mother-in-law today?

Usually, she truly doted on him like a son-in-law, even being obsequious. She always sided with him and spoke harshly criticizing the quiet Luis.

Today, something was different. It felt like the mother-in-law was full of gunpowder and had a protective, motherly feeling.

This shrew Ruth had one advantage: once her mouth started moving, her combat power was full strength. She would make a fuss even without reason, let alone when she had reason.

Even if these absurd things hadn’t happened, these days Luis had been attentive, always catering to her vanity, and most importantly, the real money spent was right there.

Before, Daniel’s words sounded nice, but when it came to money, he basically never spent, relying only on a slick tongue and playboy methods to coax her.

Now Ruth had sobered up. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became: "What do you mean ’what’s wrong’? What kind of lousy connection did you pull? Finding a accountant job at the gate for your own brother-in-law counts as an achievement?"

"Are you crazy? I used to think it might lead to some future, or at least earn more money, and was actually quite looking forward to it. Turns out it’s just a regular, lousy job."

"Over three thousand dollars a month, just like the security guards downstairs in the community. For this job you still needed to pull strings? What kind of connection did you even pull..."

Once Ruth’s combat power was activated, her firepower went straight for the vital points: "Daniel, for this kind of job, we needed your help?? Mom could have solved it for him at the property management downstairs."

"What, does Tiger Real Estate’s three thousand spend like eight thousand..."

Luis quietly held his wife Lily’s hand. Lily showed a hidden, relieved smile. The young couple exchanged meaningful glances; everything was understood without words.

Before, the mother-in-law, brainwashed by Daniel, had always been sarcastic. But after Luis went back to the room with her, he had talked about this matter. He felt they had been played like fools, Daniel always bringing it up as if claiming credit.

Actually, what kind of connections were needed for this kind of job? With that income level, there were plenty of positions to choose from if one was willing.

And now Ruth had come to her senses. She caught him and let out a stream of criticism, not holding back at all.

The young couple felt extremely comfortable inside. Lily had an honest, timid personality and was also inarticulate, simply incapable of arguing with others. As for Luis, he couldn’t be bothered to argue now. Having the mother-in-law output like this was naturally satisfying.

Nancy couldn’t listen anymore and said, "Mom, if it weren’t for Daniel finding someone, how could he have gotten into Tiger Real Estate? His education level..."

The mother-in-law Ruth, like a tigress showing her power, spat directly: "Stop talking nonsense. What’s so great about Tiger Real Estate? Is he inheriting the business or something? It’s just a junior accountant job, and you pulled strings."

"How shitty are your connections that you need to pull strings just to find such a job at Tiger Real Estate."

Having spent years mixing in teahouse card rooms and other places with all sorts of people, once Ruth started fighting, she was at a sage level. In front of her, ordinary people were all ants:

"Luis doesn’t say anything, Lily doesn’t say anything, I don’t say anything, so that’s that. But you’re getting worse, still putting on airs here and claiming credit."

"Tell me, what kind of accountant job paying over three thousand a month requires you to pull strings and keep going on about it? Show me where a accountant can’t earn that kind of money."

By the time she had outputted to here, Ruth was getting a bit thirsty. She picked up her teacup and drank some tea, a buffer.

Daniel was a bit stunned by the output. He had never suffered this kind of grievance before. He immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Mom, Luis has low education and no skills. What else can he do anyway?"

Lily, who had been affectionate with Luis, had palms full of sweat. She seemed to want to speak but didn’t dare, after all, for years the eldest son-in-law had enjoyed the mother-in-law’s affection.

The impact was still present. Luis interlocking fingers with her was the greatest encouragement. Lily’s eyes became gentle and firm.
