The next day happened to be a weekend, and Jiang Ning woke up very early, broke free from Lin Chen's embrace, got out of bed, and tidied herself up.
The style of dress in the capital is completely different from that in the countryside. You can wear a beautiful dress every day in different styles without looking out of place.
She picked out one to change into, but thought it was too bright, so she changed into a plain one.
This was the first time Lin Chen had seen her so flustered, and he hugged her with heartache.
“Honey, I know you want to tell Mom what happened, but you’re afraid she won’t be able to accept it. But one day she’ll find out the truth. It’s not your fault, so don’t blame yourself too much.”
Jiang Ning had told Lin Chen that Jiang Rou was Jiang Jianguo's biological daughter, and she even asked for his opinion last night.
Lin Chen agreed with what she said.
Now that they have money, taking care of Feng Shuyao is no problem.
Even if she and Jiang Jianguo have a falling out, she can just come and live with them.
Jiang Ning was very touched, but she felt inexplicably uneasy.
Thinking back to how Feng Shuyao ignored and blamed her when she was at home, she felt resentment.
"Ah Chen, why don't we not go back and just live our own lives? I really don't want to face them."
She snuggled into Lin Chen's arms and acted coquettishly.
As a son-in-law, he didn't visit his parents-in-law or give them anything; this behavior was appalling. But since Jiang Ning said so, he patted her back and said:
"Alright, then we won't go. The capital is where you grew up, so why don't you show us around today!"
Jiang Ning immediately broke into a smile.
"Okay, then let's take Mom and Xiaoqiao to the Forbidden City and the Summer Palace. There are so many fun places there..."
Actually, there were many places she had never been before, but as long as she was with them, she felt happy and joyful no matter where she went.
She immediately changed into a pale yellow dress, put on white sneakers, let her hair down, and wore a headband, looking very fashionable and trendy.
Lin Chen also changed into a new shirt and polyester pants. The two of them standing together looked very pleasing to the eye.
"Do I need to change into new clothes too?" Wang Xiufen asked excitedly as she rummaged through her bag after hearing that they were going out to play.
They had a lot of luggage, and they brought all the clothes they could.
Since they were clothing manufacturers, they brought two large bags of clothes with them.
However, compared to the clothes in the capital, the patterns and colors of the clothes are still a bit monotonous.
Jiang Ning decided to take them to the department store again in the next few days.
The report was dated September 12th, so they still have plenty of time to make the purchases.
Of course, she also discussed it with Lin Chen. They decided to take advantage of the free time these few days to look at houses, whether to buy or rent, they needed to find a place to stay, as they couldn't keep living in guesthouses.
In the late summer in the north, the heat is not so intense anymore, but the weather is still hot.
After visiting the Forbidden City all morning, they were hot and tired, so they went to a nearby state-run restaurant for lunch.
The two children, dressed in their lightest bibs and carried the whole way, didn't seem tired at all. Instead, they were full of energy, babbling and curiously looking around.
Jiaojiao was a little better; she was relatively quiet, nestled in Lin Chen's arms, sucking her fingers and playing. Tongtong, on the other hand, was more mischievous, hugging Jiang Ning's neck and kicking her legs non-stop.
Lin Chen had no choice but to give Jiao Jiao to Wang Xiufen and let him hold Tong Tong so that Jiang Ning could rest for a while.
"Okay, I'll go order."
In the restaurants here, you order directly from the menu displayed at the window.
She ordered four dishes and a soup, which cost a total of three yuan and sixty cents.
In a county town, the same dishes would cost a maximum of three yuan. Prices in the capital are simply higher than elsewhere.
Just as she finished paying and was about to return to her seat, she glanced at someone at the next table, and her heart felt as if it had been struck by lightning, leaving her numb with pain.
At the other table, the person laughing and talking with a man—wasn't that Jiang Rou?
I never expected that she would run into him so soon.
In her past life, she could never forget the way Jiang Rou and Lin Tao laughed wildly as they talked about those wicked deeds behind her back.
It wasn't until her last breath that she learned that none of her children's or relatives' deaths were natural; they were all orchestrated and planned by them.
The children are so young, how could she do that?
When I see her again now, she still looks the same as when she was young, her appearance has not yet become ugly and tainted by evil.
But she also wanted to grab her by the neck and teach her a lesson.
No, she wouldn't kill her so easily; instead, she would make her experience the pain of loss step by step.
The man sitting opposite her should be Li Jiabao.
Since Lin Tao has become a fugitive and can't come to the capital to keep Jiang Rou occupied, let's let her cause some trouble!
After finishing her meal, Jiang Ning asked Lin Chen to take everyone back first, as she needed to go buy some things.
Actually, she went to a secluded place and entered the space.
She used her online space to imitate Lin Tao's handwriting and wrote a letter to Jiang Rou. Then she found a child and had the letter delivered to her.
Jiang Rou had just finished her date, and Li Jiabao had just taken her home.
She took the letter and eagerly began to read it.
In the letter, Lin Tao boldly confessed his feelings to her and promised to come to the capital to find her when he made a lot of money, telling her not to date Li Jiabao.
Jiang Rou had a predestined relationship with Lin Tao in their past life and had corresponded for a long time. When she heard his passionate confession, she immediately blushed and was at a loss for words.
After writing to him last time, she didn't receive a reply and thought that the two of them would never cross paths again. Unexpectedly, he said he wanted to come and find her.
One is a close and understanding man I can talk to, and the other is a student from Tsinghua University. It's such a difficult choice!
To sway Jiang Rou, Jiang Ning sent her another package, filled with trendy clothes, hair clips, face cream, and other nice things that could only be bought at the Friendship Store.
This made her even more certain that Lin Tao was rich and willing to spend money on her!
She began dating Li Jiabao while also confiding in Jiang Ning, who was pretending to be Lin Tao.
The letters were quickly delivered to Li Jiabao by Jiang Ning.
Li Jiabao was furious. He had given her his whole heart, but she was two-timing him. In a fit of anger, he wanted to break up with Jiang Rou, and the two had a fierce argument.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning finally felt relieved.
As long as Jiang Rou isn't protected by someone like Li Jiabao who will eventually have absolute power, she won't pose a threat.
She wanted to show her how she had grown stronger step by step, and how she had trampled her into the mud!
Over the next few days, Jiang Ning led the group to visit several major attractions in the capital and enjoy a lot of delicious food.
Wang Xiufen was getting old and her physical strength couldn't keep up, so she stopped going around and instead took on the task of taking care of the children, letting Jiang Ning and the others find a place to live outside.
They wandered around many hutongs near Tsinghua University, many of which were large courtyards with more than a dozen families living together, making it noisy and chaotic, which they really disliked.
Upon arriving near Shangyang Gate, Lin Chen suddenly remembered the note and said to Jiang Ning:
"Should we go check out number 89?"
