Old Madam Kang tilted her head to look at Sheng Yang. After a while, she smiled in relief and put away her pen. “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
When the foreign woman saw this, her eyes turned red from anxiety. She grumbled again. The interpreter was having a headache and could only translate tactfully, “This is such a big business project. Your company shouldn’t be so careless to be affected by such a young girl. Furthermore, we’ve talked so much about this. Doesn’t your company think that this is inappropriate?”
Sheng Yang straightened her body and said calmly, “Respect has to be mutual.”
The interpreter’s heart skipped a beat. She had a nagging feeling that this girl was implying something, but she still wanted to take advantage of the situation.
She felt that it was not because Sheng Yang understood her but because she could tell from her expression and body language. Hence, Sheng Yang deliberately said that as a gamble.
The interpreter thought about it. If this deal was successful, it would greatly benefit her. Furthermore, she would earn a lot. She gritted her teeth and had to smooth things over. “Miss, did you misunderstand something?”
“Misunderstand?” Sheng Yang scoffed, her eyes sharp. “Do I need to say it more clearly? Don’t you find it embarrassing?”
She sounded domineering and firm when she spoke. She did not look like a girl her age at all.
The interpreter’s heart trembled even more. The foreign woman was even angrier. She kept saying, kept saying…
Sheng Yang then suddenly said a sentence. The foreign woman and the interpreter were both stunned.
Sheng Yang was using the foreign woman’s native language and was extremely familiar with it. She did not hesitate at all and could not even speak with a foreign accent.
She did not curse and just reprimanded the foreigner.
The foreign woman was in a daze and forgot to fight back. She said in her native language, “You actually know how to speak?”
Sheng Yang unhurriedly retaliated in the foreign language. “You came to China to do business but you didn’t learn Chinese. Is this your so-called respect toward us? China is a country of etiquette and we treat people with courtesy. However, if you’re disrespectful to us, we’ll definitely return the favor.”
Earlier, this foreign woman did not say anything nice at all. She slandered China’s delicacies and the unique decorations here. She also looked down on Chinese people and even thought that they were just stupid but rich.
She thought that if she did not show any expressions, it would be perfect. She also thought that the Chinese were all despicable people like her interpreter. They would do anything for money.
They had been conversing in foreign languages the whole time, but Old Madam Kang did not show any signs of panic or confusion. She was especially steady with her hands clasped in front of her body. She was completely an elegant and calm old lady. After Sheng Yang finished speaking in the foreign language, she said sternly, “You don’t respect our country’s specialties, but you still want to earn the money of our country’s citizens. You’re even cursing while eating. How can there be such a good thing in the world?”
Sheng Yang tilted her head to look at Old Madam Kang. It seemed like her grandmother was a vicious person. She could clearly understand what the foreign woman was saying but she pretended to be weak just to deal a fatal blow to the other party.
In the end, the foreign woman and the interpreter had nothing to say and were chased out of the house.
Old Madam Kang looked at Sheng Yang with a smile. “Yangyang, I didn’t expect you to know Tamil too.”
Sheng Yang looked at Old Madam Kang. “I didn’t expect you to understand too, Grandma.”
Old Madam Kang snorted. “Don’t tease me. I’ve lived longer than you, after all.”
However, Sheng Yang curved her lips. She had a nagging feeling that Old Madam Kang was not as simple as she looked.. She was still hiding her true colors.
