Jiang Yue was unaware that Zhou Ji had once again labeled her as an actress.
The woman woke up groggily in the middle of the night, not even knowing how she ended up in the master bedroom, her slender waist pressing down on her heavy arms.
The man held her slender waist possessively.
His breath fell on the back of her delicate, fair neck, hot and hard to ignore.
Jiang Yue felt a little uncomfortable and tried to push his arm away, but failed several times. For some reason, the man's arm was so heavy, as if it weighed a thousand pounds, and she couldn't push it away no matter what she did.
She was still very sleepy, and her limbs were weak and limp. She tried to push him away several times but couldn't, so she gave up.
Not long after, he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep again.
Jiang Yue likes to sleep in late and has a very bad temper when she wakes up.
She woke up the next day around noon, and no one in the family dared to come upstairs to wake her, especially since her husband had specifically instructed her not to wake her before leaving that morning.
They were even more careful and cautious in their work early in the morning.
After getting up, Jiang Yue quickly washed up and tied her hair into a loose bun with a pretty hair tie, with a few strands of black hair lazily falling onto her long, fair neck.
She went downstairs, but her husband and children were not home.
One goes to work, the other goes to school.
After Jiang Yue finished lunch, the housekeeper stepped forward and tactfully reminded her, "Madam, today is the day of the kindergarten's parent-child sports day, which starts at 2 p.m. The master has already sent a driver to pick you up."
Jiang Yue had almost forgotten about this.
She really forgot.
It was obvious that she didn't want to go.
"Can't you find someone to replace me?" Jiang Yue asked sincerely.
The butler fell silent for a moment, but he was clearly used to his wife's recent "shocking remarks." He took a deep breath and looked very calm: "It shouldn't be possible."
Jiang Yue gave an impatient "hmm".
The driver had already prepared the car and was waiting outside. She glanced at the time; there was still an hour left, so there was no need to rush.
Besides, so what if she's late?
Jiang Yue got on the bus to the kindergarten, but halfway there she couldn't help but call Zhou Ji to make it clear that she didn't want to participate in the parent-child sports meet.
But her husband was like an autocratic monarch.
Pretend to be deaf and dumb, and keep your word.
Jiang Yue finally couldn't help but ask, "Can't you really tell the teacher I'm dead?"
Zhou Ji interrupted her coldly: "Don't say such things."
It was cold, yet somehow still seemed to be alive.
Jiang Yue thought to herself, "Could he really be so superstitious? You can't tolerate even a bad word from him."
Upon arriving at the school, Jiang Yue was almost the most eye-catching parent.
There are many reasons.
First, there's her exquisite and outstanding appearance. To put it dramatically, it seems the Creator favored her from birth; she's as beautiful as a little fairy who accidentally fell to earth.
Noble and aloof, untouched by worldly concerns.
Secondly, Jiang Yue had never attended any kindergarten activities before, and the other parents had never seen her in person.
However, I have also seen all sorts of messy news about her from time to time.
Staring blankly at her now, he felt that she wasn't as bad as the news portrayed her to be.
Although the people around her kept their voices down, the whispers still reached Jiang Yue's ears.
"Is she the wife of the Zhou family's man? She's even more beautiful than on TV! I didn't dare look at her directly just now."
"I also thought the rumors were true before."
"What rumor?"
"Haven't you heard that Zhou Ji wants to divorce her? Don't let her pretty face fool you, she's incredibly low-class and has done a lot of petty things."
“I saw the news. She forged her diploma and bullied her colleagues. She’s really a scumbag.”
“I’ve never seen her come before. I guess her relationship with the Zhou family is really in trouble. Her son isn’t close to her either. The more troubled she is, the more she has to pretend that nothing is wrong.”
"Without background, status, or ability, she was bound to be dumped sooner or later. If she hadn't drugged someone and been incredibly lucky to give birth, how could she have possibly entered the Zhou family?"
These voices were filled with malice, both in their words and their implications.
It's like they can't wait to see the joke.
The original owner didn't participate in these activities before because she was afraid of losing face in front of others in this circle.
But Jiang Yue wasn't afraid.
She was not intimidated at all; her innate elegance was something that others could not learn.
Even if he doesn't speak, he's hard to ignore when he sits there.
All eyes involuntarily fell on her. The parents here were all wealthy and influential, with sharp eyes and discerning taste.
I could tell at a glance that the hairpin in her hair was a unique piece from the Southern Dynasties.
It sold for tens of millions at auction back then.
She actually managed to hold the hairpin down.
Jiang Yue was getting a little impatient, because Zhou Ji hadn't arrived yet, and the sports meet hadn't started.
She was about to lose her temper and angrily texted Zhou Ji: "Are you coming or not?"
Zhou Ji could now guess her expression just by looking at those words.
He smiled and said, "Sorry, there was traffic, I was delayed a bit, five more minutes."
Jiang Yue was being incredibly unreasonable. She could be late herself, but she wouldn't allow anyone to make her wait. She said fiercely, "Can't you think of another way to get here if there's traffic?"
Zhou Ji: [?]
Jiang Yue: [I'm not going to be friends with you anymore, I hate you.]
The few words, spoken in a firm, unambiguous manner, clearly draw a clear line.
But Zhou Ji found it kind of cute in a way that he couldn't quite put his finger on. He chuckled to himself and then transferred money to his wife, who had a notoriously bad temper.
Jiang Yue, her pretty face cold, was silently sulking when her phone pinged. She checked her phone—
Hello! Your bank card ending in 605 has received a deposit of [amount].
Jiang Yue didn't think of Zhou Ji as the source of this windfall, but the extra money in her account still made her feel a little happier.
Gradually, more parents started to approach her and try to get close to her.
They pretended to be polite and exchanged awkward pleasantries.
However, Jiang Yue is not someone who is particularly good at giving face, and she usually disdains to do such formalities.
Her aloofness made others dislike her to some extent.
These people are used to being pampered and treated with great respect, so they can't stand being ignored. The way they look at Jiang Yue has changed.
Why is a nobody on the fringes of a wealthy family putting on airs?
With neither a supportive in-law family nor a loving husband, what gives her the right to be so arrogant? It's true what they say about her being brainless.
Foolish and arrogant.
"Who does she think she is, daring to put on airs like that? The Zhou family didn't even come today; they don't want to see her at all."
"I hate those low-class people who can't see their own place. Doesn't her son hate her too?"
"Speaking of which, I also remembered that at the parent-teacher meeting a few months ago, the teacher mentioned Zhou's mother in front of the young master. The young master had a cold face and refused to say anything no matter what."
"Neither the father nor the son is willing to acknowledge her."
As they spoke, the group exchanged glances and smiled knowingly.
These mocking and ridiculing voices slowly reached Jiang Yue's ears, but she pretended not to hear them, remaining very calm and not going forward to argue.
Hysterical arguments will not yield any results.
This kind of stuff isn't even good enough for her.
The kindergarten was bustling with activity.
The internet has been buzzing these past few days as well.
The "Culture" program team only issued a statement that day announcing the suspension of recording, and several days have passed without a detailed explanation.
Most netizens assumed that Jiang Yue's ignorance and arrogance ruined the show.
They kept demanding an apology from her.
Ye Lan's fans are also speaking out in support of their idol.
Jiang Yue's Weibo comments section was already flooded with messages. The first comment that appeared immediately was, "@Jiang Yue, when are you going to apologize to Ye Lan?"
"One bad apple spoils the whole bunch."
"Shameless."
"Get out here and apologize!!! Apologize!!! Don't make other hardworking people pay the price for your arrogance!!!"
