Chapter 395 Painstaking Efforts
After Mr. Sheng’s birthday banquet ended, all major media reported on it the next day.
[A wild girl from the slums changed her fate and became the eldest daughter of the Sheng family! ]
[A phoenix landed in a chicken coop. Is it a real phoenix or a fake one? ]
[The marriage between the Sheng and Chu families is in turmoil again. Why did Young Master Chu bring it up in public? 】
There were a few blurry photos next to it. The media were invited to attend the birthday banquet, which was specially invited by Mr. Sheng to clear his name for Jiang Wanrou.
If it weren't for the tacit approval of the people behind the scenes, the relevant media would not dare to break the news with such a fanciful headline, let alone draw public attention to the private lives of Jiang Zhiyue and Chu Junyue.
The public had mixed reactions to this. On the first floor: [What the hell? My favorite top student, the hope of us common people, turns out to be a descendant of a famous family? Isn't this just a melodrama? ]
Third floor: [I would rather accept the fact that Jiang Zhiyue changed her fate by herself and married into a wealthy family! I cannot accept that she is a rich girl! Don't get me wrong, I am definitely not jealous of her, it's just that feeling... can you understand? It's the feeling of loss when you find that the image of a role model that was originally high and mighty in your heart suddenly collapses. ]
Fifth Floor: [Does it mean that in their world, only people with status can be recognized? Do we have to struggle for their acceptance and recognition throughout our lives? ]
....
1900th floor: [How could Jiang Zhiyue be the eldest daughter of the Sheng family? She and I have similar backgrounds. My mother also worked as a servant in a wealthy family. Jiang Zhiyue had just been admitted to Wharton College. There were many rumors online, saying that she cheated and that she got in through the back door through the Gu family's connections. She never came out to clarify anything. In the end, the facts proved that she was well-rounded in morals, intelligence and physique.]
[Everyone knows how serious the bullying in the aristocratic college is, and how much psychological pressure she has to bear. I remember someone posted a message online, betting that she would drop out if she couldn't last a week, but what was the result? She always exceeded our expectations.]
[I will also take the college entrance examination next year. My dream is not to enter Wharton. I just hope to be like her, who moves forward unswervingly no matter how many criticisms and challenges she faces, and never forgets where she came from no matter where she is.]
[Whether she is a fake phoenix or a real phoenix, the phoenix she has become is by no means the halo given to her by her status. She herself is the light, the hope in the eyes of many people with similar fates as her. She proves to us that the theory of birth is the most ridiculous argument. As long as you are willing to work thousands of times harder than ordinary people, everyone can rewrite their own destiny! Let those theories of bloodline and wealth go to hell! ]
[Those nobles have no right to define us based on our origins! They also have no right to conclude that every one of us ordinary people cannot achieve greatness! ]
This comment received millions of likes and reached Jiang Zhiyue's eyes.
Even Sheng Huaian agreed with this comment.
For the first time, a photo of a girl appeared on his personal social media page.
——The moment the girl lowered her eyes, a tear slid down uncontrollably, shattered like a pearl, and slowly flowed down her beautiful face.
Under the crown, she is extremely beautiful.
This photo, which is worthy of being called a god, was taken by the official chief photographer of the State of Monterey and became the top picture on Sheng Huaian's homepage.
He introduced her with just a few words, "My princess."
This photo broke LINS's record for likes over the years, and the comment section was flooded with comments.
The comments with the most likes were from Sheng Huaian’s good friends, [Brother, my good brother, please introduce your princess to me, I am willing to be your brother-in-law. ]
[Huai'an's princess is our princess. If you are still good brothers, please send me your sister's contact information.]
[Sheng Huaian, you are so mean. You hid this from your brothers and even hid her from your follow list. If anyone knows this sister, please tag her so I can send her a gift.]
Sheng Huaian was too lazy to deal with this group of frivolous people. He clicked on the latest notification, his eyelids drooped slightly, and he made an unhappy "tsk" sound.
Mu Liansheng and Gu Zhaoye both liked this post, and the latter even directly stole his picture and changed it into his avatar.
.......
The Sheng family’s old house is shrouded in dark clouds.
There was a loud "crash" sound!
Lin's mother smashed the antique vase on the table to pieces.
Fragments flew everywhere, and the servants knelt down in horror, hastily cleaning up the mess on the ground.
Mother Lin was furious. She ordered the servants to kneel on the sharp fragments in a cold voice.
Old Mrs. Sheng leaned back in the soft chair. After taking the sedative, she just calmly watched Lin's mother vent her anger.
After Lin's mother had finished venting, Old Lady Sheng spoke up, "Your father saw you torturing the servants and was afraid that he would say that you were not as good as Jiang Wanrou."
"Mom, even at this time, you still want to dig up old things to blame me!" Mother Lin's eyes were blazing with fire.
Old Madam Sheng waved her hand and dismissed the maids around her, leaving only the mother and daughter in the room.
Mother Lin was filled with anger, and her voice trembled as she said, "Jiang Wanrou and I are only one year apart in age. You had to falsify my age to cover up the shameful affair between you and your father! You went to so much trouble, were you trying to hide my identity as an illegitimate daughter, or to cover up the fact that you were her lover?"
"You've become more capable now. You've learned how to blame your mother who gave birth to you." Old Mrs. Sheng gave a weak smile. The pain on her forehead was an indisputable fact. She was willing to sacrifice her life to escape judgment.
I'm afraid that Mrs. Lin hasn't learned even a third of how cruel and ruthless Old Lady Sheng is.
"If you don't tell us and your father doesn't tell us, who would know that you are an illegitimate daughter?" Mrs. Sheng asked back.
Mother Lin choked.
Old Madam Sheng was the caregiver of the original wife. After giving birth to her eldest son, the original wife became ill. The birth of Jiang Wanrou made her condition worse.
Mr. Sheng disliked her inability to carry out a normal married life, and he and Mrs. Sheng fell in love with each other as early as the first time he stepped into her ward.
Old Mrs. Sheng takes care of the original wife during the day and accompanies Old Mr. Sheng at night.
After Jiang Wanrou was born, she lived in the main house, but after Lin's mother was born, she could only live in the house outside that Grandpa Sheng had arranged for her and her daughter.
In Lin's mother's memory, the thing that Mrs. Sheng repeatedly reminded her the most was that she should keep her identity strictly confidential, not play with other children, and not easily reveal who her father was.
When she met Mr. Sheng for the first time, Mrs. Sheng also carefully told her to call him "Mr. Sheng".
