Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess

Grandma Hialun's indignant voice echoes across the space. The neighborhood's festivities came to an abrupt halt, and the atmosphere shifted to one of tension and gravity. Qu Susu even trembled at hearing her mother's scolding voice as the event fell silent.

"This old lady would accept any gift from all my children and grandchildren, no matter how big or small, but... you shouldn't take away what your children own and abuse your authority as their mother. If you are going to take the things my grandchildren originally possess and give them to me, then there is no need. This old lady doesn't need such a gift!" says Grandma Hialun.

The Qu family was embarrassed by Qu Susu's behavior, and Mr. Qu wanted to leave the event because he felt so embarrassed. He carefully selects the ideal emerald gift set for his mother-in-law's preferences and age. Grandma Hialun loves glittery accessories, and the bigger the jewel, the more she likes it.

He had purchased that Emerald Jewellery set at an auction for nearly 100,000 rmb, not exactly a collector's item, but who would have thought that his wife would keep it for herself? She even took his younger daughter's birthday present and gave it to her own mother, which was extremely offensive.

Grandma Hialun's attitude changed upon witnessing her daughter's behavior. Although Qu Susu acted in this way, she never would have imagined that she would even take her own daughter's belongings. It was almost unbearable for her to watch as she flaunted her money in such an ostentatious way, adding to the embarrassment. The old woman was too hurt by Qu Susu's actions.

The old lady was being calmed down by Yue Suli and Su Surui. If Grandma were really enraged, awful things might happen to her.

Su Surui said, "Mom, please don't get angry. Watch out for your blood pressure..."

"Mom, take a deep breath and breathe out. Regulate your breathing," said Yue Suli.

Qu Susu lost all composure when she observed Yue Suli talking to Grandma Hialun. She assumed she was trying to gain her favor and started berating her younger sister.

"Yue Suli! Grow up and stop acting! Don't curry with Mom. You should be ashamed that you still act like a leech when your children are all grown. Is borrowing money all your family can do!?" reprimanded Qu Susu. "Get out of here, poor person!"

At this point, the entire Yue family could not contain themselves any longer. After approaching his wife, Papa Yue stood by her side, shielding her from Qu Susu. Despite Qu Susu being their elder, Yue Jixia and Yue Ruxia eventually lost their composure and spoke up. Her words were not nice to hear, and almost everyone frowned when they heard what Qu Susu had just shouted. Not everyone in the Xia family ended up successfully like their siblings. Most of them still live in the province, living their lives as farmers and fruit vendors.

Yue Ruxia screams, "Who the hell do you think you are!? How dare you shout at my mother!?"

"Hmp! Just because your family is rich doesn't mean you can look down on other families. Our Yue family didn't even borrow any money from your Qu!" said Yue Jixia.

"You speak as if you are extremely wealthy, but you even gave away stuff that is used, Tsk!" Yue Ruxia sneered.

"Your elder sister still lives with her parents and doesn't even have a permanent job, yet you speak as if you are worth a shit despite the fact that you haven't even finished your studies." Qu Susu questioned, "How about your Yue family? My eldest daughter earns three million dollars a year. We have two cars and a mansion. What does your Yue family have!?"

Although Mr. Qu made an effort to stop his wife, it was too late. "Qu Susu, stop talking for me! Enough now!"

Qu Yuru pleaded, "M-Mom! Stop talking, please! Don't let me lose my job!" When she noticed Su Rukia holding an iPhone and directing a camera in their way, she became alarmed since it was evident that someone was watching the entire thing.

"Who can make you lose your job?" Qu Susu retorted. "Aren't you working at a major place in Korea? In Lotte World Tower!" she said.

Qu Yuwen was completely perplexed by the situation. He had completely lost his face in front of his own wife and felt somewhat distant from his mother, while Qu Yurei was terrified behind her older sister.

Yue Ruxia saw what was being chatted on the screen of Su Rukia's phone. "Kia, Dajie says to put the call in speaker mode."

"O-Oh... Wait!"

Su Rukia was momentarily confused, but she obeyed her little aunt's orders, and once she had adjusted the phone's volume to the highest level, everyone waited to hear Yue Xuexia's voice.

[Lotte World Tower, was it? Coincidentally, that thing is mine. I find it incomprehensible that you would dare swear at my mother. Since I can't punish Aunt Qu, Sister Yuru can bear it for her mother. Wait for me. I am almost there!]

Toot. Toot. Toot.

The other party cut off the call. However, when they heard what Yue Xuexia had just stated, everyone was left dumbfounded. The Qu family was also in disbelief.

Qu Susu snorted and glared smugly at the Yues.

Sneer~

Qu Susu said, "What did the Yue Family's eldest daughter consume growing up that she talks big as if she's a millionaire in some drama series!?"

"My eldest daughter doesn't joke around with people she doesn't like," Yue Yuya remarked.

"Oh~ really... Let's see what she can do then!"

Qu Susu frequently makes fun of the Yue family, especially Yue Xuexia. Her husband was worried when he heard what Yue Xuexia had just said on the phone and looked at her eldest daughter. Qu Yuru became even more worried when her phone started ringing and her own husband called, even though he was still meant to be at work. Qu Yuru's husband called her on a video call, and as soon as the link connected, he started yelling.

On Qu Yuru's phone, a man with blonde hair and obsidian eyes could be seen.

[Qu Yuru!!! Who, in the name of God, did you offend? You and I have both been sacked. The tower's CEO personally dispatched the floor manager of our area to inform us of this. You offended the tower owner, they said. How on earth did you ever meet the proprietress of Lotte World Tower? Aren't you supposed to be back in your country?]

Qu Yuru went completely pale when she found out from her husband that they had been fired without warning. There was no notice given, and the dismissal happened quickly. The worst-case scenario is that she was fired along with her spouse, leaving her family without a source of income.

"I need to explain things to my husband. Dad, help me with this," Qu Yuru remarked, looking at her father. She then left the group and began speaking to her husband on the phone.

"W-W-What... What's happening!?" asked Qu Susu in confusion.

All in the room heard and saw their conversation, and when they saw Mr. Qu looking at the Yue family with a puzzled expression on his face and recalled what Yue Xuexia had just stated on the phone moments before, they realized what was going on.

Madam Qu became afraid as she thought about how things had come to this. Mr. Qu was going to drag his wife toward the Yue Family to apologize when he pulled off his wife's grips on his garments while wearing a deep scowl and a gloomy complexion. He begged them to at least allow his oldest child to continue working abroad. Qu Susu clutched her husband's clothing and displayed fear. The words Yue Xuexia had stated are still audible to her in her mind.

"You will shut up this instant. Come with me and apologize properly!!!" said Mr. Qu.

Qu Susu, bewildered by all that was going on and finding her husband's restraint hard to uphold, watched in dismay as a pricey-looking black sports car pulled up in front of the venue, followed by numerous other vehicles. Judging only by what was visible through the window, looked like they were carrying gifts.

"A Bugatti La Voiture Noire costs more than 100 million rmb," Qu Yuwen screamed. "Fuck! Why would it park in front of the eldest aunt's house?"

It was Little Taiyang in human form, who stepped out of the car, followed by a young woman with a poker face who was really attractive. The young man appeared out of nowhere in a gray suit, the outfit alone being extremely expensive, as the eyes could clearly see. Despite the strange appearance, he is carrying a few cups of drinks from the famous café, St*rbuck, which was taken from the car fridge.

"My Lady, Please!"

Yue Xuexia is an otherworldly young woman dressed in a white Korean style casual disposition cape blazer coat and trousers set. The outfit consists of a sleeveless top with an attached small cape and long white suit pants with a small slit at the front border.

With her steely eyes, Yue Xuexia scanned the area, clearly not in the best of moods. She stared at the Qu Family, frightening them half to death, for a short while. When Yue Xuexia arrived, Qu Yuru, who had just finished talking to her husband, looked tired. She recognized the brand of Yue Xuexia's car and her clothes. She is now adamant that she is to blame for her family's predicament.

Yue Xuexia turned away from the Qu Family to look for her family, and her attitude eased when she spotted them, especially the old mother smiling at her.

Grandma Hialun said, "Sweetie~ did you come here for granny?"

"Of course, Granny!" said Yue Xuexia as she immediately headed in the direction of her grandmother. She was so happy to see the old lady that she gave her a quick embrace.

Three automobiles are seen driving behind them, most of them filled with gifts for the old lady that they bought at the mall. Little Taiyang followed him inside and instructed them to bring the gifts. Little Taiyang proceeded to assist her while chatting with the passengers of the other cars.

"Granny, Happy Birthday! I got you plenty of things! You will adore them! I've picked everything myself," Yue Xuexia said.

"Hoho~ let this old lady see my sweetie's gifts," said Grandma Hialun.

Yue Ruxia pulled Su Rukia and collected Litte Taiyang's beverages. She thanked him and they carried the beverages with them. Little Taiyang was Yue Xuexia's assistant, and everyone turned to find her holding four cups of coffee.

Yue Ruxia said, "Thank you, Brother Yangyang!"

"Un. Place your Dajie's drink in the fridge for me," said Taiyang.

Su Rukia said, "Please give it to me!"

After getting their refreshments, these two young ladies left without giving any thought to the few people behind Taiyang who were carrying piles of gifts. All of the presents were luxury brands, and every box and paper bag bore brand names and insignia.

Yue Xuexia said, "Yangyang, help me carry the gifts. Give me that jewelry box and briefcase. The remainder, bring everything to Granny's bedroom."

Little Taiyang bows to Su Surui, the owner of the house. He knows all the Xia and Yue family members by memory, especially the ones that Yue Xuexia knows.

Taiyang says, "Madam Su, pardon our intrusion. Can I ask where the Old Madam's room is? So we can place the other gifts inside..."

"S-Sure... I'll show you the w-way..." said Su Surui as she sneaked a glance at Yue Xuexia, who was happily talking with her grandma.

Madam Su gave instructions to the staff at Little Taiyang. Everyone was left stunned and at a loss for words after the incident. Yue Xuexia blatantly ignores the Qu family while greeting all of her other aunts and uncles and conversing with her grandmother. She acts as though the Qu Family does not exist.
