Fang Ling's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at her mother, murmuring, "Mom..."
She thought that Fang's mother was slightly different from the men in the Fang family; even though she was snobbish, she still had a soft side.
But she had just suffered a grievance at Madam Xiao's place, and Fang's mother couldn't wait to bring up Zhu Hao, without any regard for her feelings.
Fang's mother's eyes darted away, but her tone was gentle. "Why don't you give it a try? You know your sister had a pretty bad falling out with the family back then, and they haven't been in contact for two years. Your dad is too embarrassed to admit it. You and your sister are close in age, so it'll be easier for you to talk to her. It's definitely more convenient than it is for your dad and me."
Fang Ling gave a self-deprecating smile, concealing the bitterness in her eyes, and obediently said, "I know. I'll call my sister in a bit. Is there anything Mom wants to tell my sister and me?"
Fang's mother looked guilty as she gazed at the obedient Fang Ling, her heart aching. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, she could only sigh, "I'm sorry to have wronged you, child."
Mother Fang raised her hand and stroked Fang Ling's soft, long hair, her loving eyes falling on her. "Your sister is still a member of the Fang family. We two elders can't bring ourselves to beg for peace, and Fang Ming's stubborn nature isn't suitable to be a mediator. Only you are the most suitable person in the family to go."
Fang Ling lowered her head, gently rubbed her mother's palm, and said in a sweet voice, "I'm not wronged."
“Your sister has that kind of temper…” Fang’s mother frowned slightly, as if she remembered something, “If she still forces you to kneel or insults you, come back and tell us, and the family will back you up!”
Fang Ling pursed her lips, said nothing, but sneered inwardly.
To back her up? They'd probably just keep advising her to be more patient and understanding.
Fang Ling's delicate and aggrieved face moved her mother even more, and she sighed repeatedly.
Fang's father and Fang Ming value the company's affairs highly. In order to benefit the Tang family behind Zhu, they put pressure on Fang Ling step by step. But she is different. In her heart, Fang Ling is just as important as the Fang Group. The company needs to expand its territory, and Fang Ling also needs to grow up healthily and happily.
"How about this?" Fang's mother patted Fang Ling's hand, held her hands, and looked at her with heartache. "Didn't you say you wanted a house in the east of the city? So it would be convenient for you to go to the film set. When you're free this week, go and see which one you like and buy it."
Fang Ling's eyes flickered slightly, and she nodded gently, "I understand, thank you, Mom."
"Hmm." With a look of relief, Fang's mother brushed aside the strands of hair on Fang Ling's face, carefully examined her features, and sighed, "I wish you were my own daughter."
"I'm my parents' biological daughter now." Fang Ling pouted, grabbed her mother's arm, and snuggled into her arms, acting coquettishly. "No one can take me away from them!"
"Good, good, good!" Mother Fang's lips curled up, her face full of satisfaction. "They can't take it away, they can't take it away."
Where Fang's mother couldn't see, Fang Ling's face turned cold, her expression sinister.
No one can take away everything she has now!

manor.
Zhu Hao stood somewhat bewildered in the entrance hall of the villa, with Tang Song standing beside her.
They had just returned from Meiyou when Zhu Hao opened the door to find a pack of wolves lined up in front of her, carrying all sorts of gift boxes and staring at her excitedly.
Zhu Hao swallowed hard and glanced at the living room decorations.
A bunch of colorful balloons were pasted on the ceiling, with origami cranes and stars hanging below them. The ground was covered with ribbons and flower petals. In the center of the villa was a giant gift box, bigger than her. A banner with red background and white lettering hung on the TV wall: "Warmly celebrate and wish you a successful interview!"
"Best wishes! Best wishes! You're amazing!" Xiaoxue squeezed out from behind the wolf pack, her messy hair and wolf ears swaying excitedly. "You passed the interview!!"
Zhu Hao blinked slowly, staring at the red dot on Xiao Xue's earlobe, and hesitated before looking at Tang Song beside him.
【Huh!? Why is Xiaoxue out?! Wasn't she locked in her room doing homework?! Why was she let out?! And when will Xiaoxue change this habit of clinging to my cubs the moment she sees them?! I don't even cling to the cubs! Why does Xiaoxue always cling to them?!】
Zhu Hao's lips twitched, and he subtly pulled Xiao Xue's wrist, hiding her behind his back.
So what if it's hanging there?! It's a mutual thing between her and Xiaoxue!
Zhu Hao looked Tang Song up and down, his gaze quickly sweeping over the shirt that was stretched taut across Tang Song's chest, where he could vaguely see the smooth muscle lines underneath, which perfectly matched Tang Song's wolf king temperament.
Zhu Hao secretly pouted; Tang Song, such a huge wolf, hanging on her, could crush her!
Xiaoxue is so nice, such a soft and cuddly little wolf cub, you can pet and hug her, she's nothing like Tang Song, that straight man!
A completely straight man whose only thought is the heir to the wolf clan!
Zhu Hao let out a soft hum, turned her head, and pulled Xiao Xue into the living room. The wolves that had been lined up in a row just moments before suddenly surged forward, surrounding Zhu Hao in the center. They were excited and talking all at once. The more composed wolves even knew to keep her from getting tired, so they awkwardly used sign language.
"Best of luck! Anything interesting happened during your interview today?"
"Best wishes! Wolf Lord said you were amazing today! You fought those old men for a really, really long time!"
"Best of luck! Look at the gift I prepared for you if you pass your interview! It's a business suit!! I searched for a lot of clothes that humans could wear before choosing this one, you definitely have to try it on!"
"Best wishes! Best wishes! I also chose clothes that you can wear to work! Take a look!"
"Best wishes! Look! Look! This is a watch! You can keep track of time while you're slacking off!"
Zhu Hao gave an awkward smile, holding the gift from the wolf pack in his hands, and turned around with difficulty.
Wow!
She could no longer see Tang Song; the wolf pack had completely blocked her view, and she could only see excited faces, not Tang Song's poker face.
【Ah!! My cub!! Give me back my cub!! I only said it was a simple celebration, when did these wolves with no sense of boundaries prepare all this?! They've surrounded my cub again! And! What is that so-called business suit in Xiaoyan's hand? Just two folds of fabric!? Is it a decoration? It looks so strange!】
Zhu Hao paused, then curiously lowered her eyes and immediately noticed the two pieces of black fabric in Xiao Yan's hand.
Xiaoyan met her gaze and became even more excited. She quickly unfolded the clothes in her hands, as if to show off, "Take a look! Best wishes! Do you like it!? It's black, very formal!"
Two pieces of black cloth appeared completely in the eyes of Zhu Hao and all the wolves.
The upper body consisted of only one piece of fabric in the front and two ropes in the back, without even a neck strap. The lower body... consisted of only a triangular piece of fabric smaller than the palm of your hand, without even a thin rope.
The wolves' chattering stopped abruptly, and an eerie and awkward atmosphere filled the living room.
[Damn it! What is this thing?! I thought it was some kind of silk scarf or accessory, what is this?! Can I even wear it?! How have Tang Ting and Tang Chu been disciplining this little wolf cub all day?! Is that even a proper thing?!]
