◎Belated debt◎
In these few short minutes, Jiang Mingyi felt as if his world had collapsed.
It turned out that all the beautiful things in his heart were just appearances.
When Tan Ru saw her son coming back, she suddenly panicked.
She walked up to her son and took his arm to explain, but was pushed away.
Jiang Mingyi said nothing and went straight to his room upstairs, where he met Jiang Lingxue's frightened eyes.
The brother and sister looked at each other for a moment.
Jiang Mingyi was in mixed emotions and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Jiang Lingxue's chest heaved violently. She had recently been trapped in the pain of her life passing away and unrequited love. She never expected that there would be an even heavier blow waiting for her.
It turned out that she was not Tan Ru's biological daughter, but her father's daughter with another woman.
how so?
Jiang Lingxue couldn't believe this reality.
She covered her heart and felt it beating rapidly, making her feel very anxious.
Then she felt dizzy and fell to one side.
"Sister, sister, what's wrong with you? Wake up! Dad, Mom, my sister fainted!"
Jiang Mingyi held Jiang Lingxue, his eyes full of panic.
Jiang Wenhe heard the noise downstairs, ran upstairs and called the family doctor urgently.
Tan Ru stared at all this in a daze. Normally, she would be extremely nervous if Jiang Lingxue felt a little unwell.
Now I just stand there stiffly, my heart feeling like it's being tangled by thousands of strands of tangled yarn.
On the one hand, she was still subconsciously worried, and on the other hand, seeing her husband and son in a panic, she was cruelly reminded by reality that the love and attention Lingxue received should belong to her real daughter Ninglu.
…
Something unexpected happened recently in the wealthy circle of Beijing.
Mr. Tan's daughter and son-in-law are getting a divorce, and it's causing quite a stir.
All the wives in the wealthy circle knew that Tan Ru was love-brained. She had recklessly married a man who was totally incompatible with her status and position. She knew that the man did not like to go home and that there was no love in the man's eyes, but she could still tolerate it for so many years.
Now I don’t know what’s got me going on, I’ve actually decided to get a divorce.
Jiang Ninglu heard about this from Chen Zhi.
Although Shen Zhi had left Jiang Lingxue's girlfriends group, she was still her good friend Shen Shanni's cousin, and her family also had business dealings with the Tan family. It was hard for her not to know about such a big thing.
Chen Zhi sighed in disbelief: "How could Aunt Tan divorce Uncle Jiang?"
From her perspective, this family has always been harmonious and happy. Uncle Jiang is always elegant and gentle to the younger ones, without the airs of an elder.
Although Aunt Tan has a bad temper and often speaks harshly, she really loves Lingxue and is also nice to them.
How could such a harmonious family get divorced?
Jiang Ninglu didn't care much about it and spent her free time browsing information related to house decoration.
She has already decided where to buy a house. After finishing filming the fantasy drama she is currently working on, she will finalize the house deal and then bring her adoptive father and brother over.
Jiang Ninglu imagined in her mind the beautiful scene of taking them out to play. Her brother would definitely be very happy to see so many new and interesting sights.
With all these exciting things in her mind, she didn't take what Chen Zhi said about her biological father to heart at all.
It has nothing to do with her, right?
Jiang Ninglu automatically filtered out everything related to the Jiang family.
However, on this day, when she finished filming and left the crew to return to her villa dormitory in Beijing, she found a familiar figure in front of the gate.
The first time, Jiang Ninglu thought it was a coincidence, but the second time, Jiang Ninglu felt a little suspicious.
Did she offend Tan Ru or Jiang Lingxue in some way, causing Tan Ru to come to her again and again?
Jiang Ninglu couldn't pretend not to see her because Tan Ru was blocking the door. If she didn't move away, she couldn't open the door.
"Ma'am, what can I do for you? This isn't the place for you, is it?"
Jiang Ninglu has always been resentful towards Tan Ru. The scenes of her treating her harshly when she was a child, and the words she used to mock and ridicule her, were like knives stabbing her heart.
Especially the embarrassment that his family brought upon him at his last birthday party. Jiang Ninglu will never forget that humiliating moment.
However, since she has made up her mind to stay away from this family, her life is on the right track and developing in a good direction. Jiang Ninglu doesn't want to bother with them for the time being, nor does she want them to affect her life.
As long as everyone keeps to themselves and does not interfere with each other.
Of course, if Tan Ru insisted on causing trouble for her, she would have no choice but to open her little notebook of grudges and settle both old and new accounts together.
However, when Jiang Ninglu was facing a great enemy, Tan Ru's next action made her usually calm and composed face show signs of collapse.
Tan Ru actually stepped forward, held her hand, and called her in a trembling voice: "Lu Lu."
Then came another sentence that shocked her: "My daughter, you have suffered."
Jiang Ninglu: “?”
Ji Xixi, who came out after hearing the noise, was also stunned, with an expression as if he had eaten something big.
If I remember correctly, doesn’t Lulu have a mother?
I live with my father and my brother.
Then why would this noble lady, who was dressed in luxurious clothes and covered in jewels, call her daughter?
Could it be that Lulu has another identity?
While Ji Xixi was imagining all kinds of melodramatic plots in her mind, Jiang Ninglu struggled to regain her sanity.
She looked in disbelief at the woman in front of her whom she once hated, not understanding what she meant.
Also, could you please stop looking at me with those tearful eyes? It's so weird!
Tan Ru was stung by Jiang Ninglu's disgusted reaction.
But there was nothing she could do, this was all her own fault.
During this period, she lived in extreme pain and self-blame every day. When she thought about how her daughter was living a hellish life while they gave endless love to another girl, her heart felt like it was burning on fire.
So as much as Tan Ru loved Jiang Wenhe in the past, she hates him now.
Of course, what she hated most was herself.
She divorced Jiang Wenhe regardless of the consequences, even though she was skinned alive in the process.
That bastard Jiang Wenhe took away half of her assets without a care in the world. If her father hadn't been wary of him, he would have emptied the entire family.
The funny thing is that I still thought that one day I would be able to warm him up, I had high hopes for him, and I even helped him raise another woman's daughter.
It would be fine if she just raised someone else's child, but she actually hurt her own daughter for this.
"Lulu, I'm sorry. It's Mom's fault."
Tan Ru held Jiang Ninglu's hand, tears streaming down her face. She was no longer the sarcastic and mean person she always was when Jiang Ninglu saw her.
Jiang Ninglu was even more puzzled, thinking that Tan Ru had taken the wrong medicine and was going crazy, or that she had mistaken her for Jiang Lingxue.
But it doesn't seem to make sense.
But soon, Jiang Ninglu's doubts were answered.
Tan Ru told her that she was her biological daughter, but was switched by Jiang Wenhe with bad intentions, leaving her in the dark for so many years.
Afraid that Jiang Ninglu wouldn't believe it, Tan Ru even took out genetic comparison.
Jiang Ninglu stared at the string of data, petrified on the spot.
One second she was immersed in the beautiful vision of a family of three, and the next second, she felt as if she had swallowed a fly.
She actually has such a ridiculous and disgusting life story!
Jiang Ninglu has a certain yearning for her biological mother.
Although she had never seen her, she always thought that if her mother were by her side, she would be gentle and kind, and love her children like other mothers.
She even wondered if her mother had been around, she would not have been bullied as a child, kidnapped, or locked up in a dark room without any light.
But now, Tan Ru tore her only fantasy apart with her own hands.
She never imagined that the gentle and loving mother in her mind would be the one who hurt her again and again.
Jiang Ninglu couldn't accept this truth.
After experiencing a period of dramatic ups and downs, her mood calmed down and she tore up the appraisal report in front of Tan Ru.
Then he told her in a cold tone: "Besides my father and brother, I have no other family. You are not my mother, you never were, and you will never be. Don't come to me again. I will not recognize you, and I don't want to have any contact with your family."
"Little Deer—"
Tan Ru panicked and grabbed Jiang Ninglu's hand again: "I know I was wrong, but can you give mom a chance? I will definitely make it up to you. What do you want? As long as you want it, mom will definitely satisfy you. I heard that you want to buy a house recently. Mom has a lot of assets, and I will give them all to you. You can pick any house you like. And your adoptive father and brother, I will also compensate them and treat them well so that they can live a good life. Please give mom a chance, okay?"
When Tan Ru finished speaking, her voice was filled with tears again. Anyone who saw her begging would be moved. Instead, they would scold Jiang Ninglu for being ungrateful.
But Jiang Ninglu just pushed her hand away coldly, and said in a cold tone: "I don't need what you said. I can afford the house myself, and I am earning assets myself. As for Dad and brother, you don't have to worry about them. They are doing well now and will get better and better in the future."
After saying that, Jiang Ninglu opened the door of the villa, walked in, and then closed it heavily. No matter how Tan Ru begged and asked her to stay, she remained unmoved.
Ji Xixi witnessed the whole thing.
She wasn't deliberately gossiping, she just overheard it by accident.
She liked to read novels in her spare time and had seen plots about real and fake daughters and the wrong baby being taken away, but she never imagined that one day the novels would become reality and such a bloody drama would happen to someone she knew.
Although they didn't know who this noble lady was, judging by her attire and demeanor, it was clear that she belonged to a class they couldn't reach.
And just based on the phrase "you can pick any house you want"——
Ahhh, why didn't anyone say this to her?
Should she go back and ask her parents if they are hidden wealthy people?
Ji Xixi glanced at the woman standing at the door who was reluctant to leave, and then glanced at her roommate who exuded an apathetic air.
In the end, he said nothing and followed him into the house.
The author has something to say:
Mom's Crematorium√
