Upon arriving at the police station, Yanling paid the compensation. Jiang Han was led out by the staff. Upon seeing her brother, she couldn't help but rush forward and throw herself into his arms, bursting into tears.
Jiang Xin watched the brother and sister from the side, her eyes filled with emotion; she also missed her brother.
It took Jiang Han a while to stop crying. She turned around and saw Jiang Xin beside her, and said shyly, "Hello, sister-in-law."
Jiang Xin was greatly pleased by the address of "sister-in-law," and her eyes crinkled into a smile: "Hello, my name is Jiang Xin. Let's go outside and talk."
Jiang Han took the tissue Jiang Xin handed her, wiped her tears, and followed her brother out of the police station.
Thinking of their uncle and aunt waiting for news at home, the three of them didn't linger and took a taxi home directly.
As soon as Jiang Han entered the house, her parents stopped her and asked her how she was doing. Her aunt kept saying, "You've lost weight, you've lost weight."
After saying that, he walked up to Jiang Xin and kept praising her, saying that she was a great benefactor to the family and that she was a good girl.
Jiang Xin blushed with praise, saying that she hadn't done anything wrong, and that she was just glad her sister was safe and sound.
That evening, Yanling was exceptionally patient with Jiang Xin, even tolerating his temper considerably.
Jiang Xin used the money left over from pawning her jewelry to buy several sets of clothes and bags. Before going home each time, she would remove the price tags and tell Yanling that these were discounted items.
Yanling gave her 200,000 yuan and didn't say anything about her little tricks, only reminding her to spend rationally.
Winter arrived quickly, and Yanling spent the time looking for a house.
Jiang Xin saw online that Ye Beichen was about to marry his fiancée Fang Ying.
Jiang Xin panicked for a moment; she couldn't believe it was true.
How could Ye Beichen get married?
How could he possibly get married!
Jiang Xin went to Chenguang to find Ye Beichen again, but before she could get close, she was surrounded by a group of security guards who politely asked her to leave.
She didn't get discouraged and persisted in waiting for Ye Beichen not far from the company.
However, instead of Ye Beichen, she was met by her mother, Shu Yuqing.
Jiang Xin and her mother were in a quiet tea room. Looking at the woman in front of her who exuded elegance in every gesture, Jiang Xin called out softly, "Mom."
Upon hearing her address, Shu Yuqing's expression turned cold. She picked up her teacup, took a sip, and then put it down before giving Jiang Xin a cold look.
"I'm not your mother, don't call me by the wrong name."
Shu Yuqing's voice was as cold as her expression.
Jiang Xin panicked; she knew her mother was truly angry.
She leaned forward, looking pitifully at Shu Yuqing: "Mom, you will always be my mom. Whether you acknowledge me or not, you and Dad raised me, and I can't forget that kindness."
Her weak and pitiful appearance had no effect on Shu Yuqing; Jiang Xin's pretentious manner disgusted her.
Jiang Xin in her previous life was like that; on one hand, she said she wanted to break with her family to pursue love, and on the other hand, she prayed that she would be given the opportunity to fulfill her filial duties.
To put it bluntly, they simply didn't want to truly leave the Ye family.
She wanted love.
She also wanted the property.
Jiang Xin is a hypocritical and selfish person.
If she were to completely sever ties with the Ye family for the sake of the freedom and love she speaks of, Shu Yuqing would think more highly of her.
But she was too greedy; she wanted everything but was unwilling to give anything in return.
Shu Yuqing was too lazy to talk to her anymore and directly took out the document that Jiang Xin had personally signed from her bag.
Shu Yuqing placed the photocopied document on the table and said in a cool, clear voice, "Take a look at this."
Jiang Xin didn't know what was in the file folder, but her intuition told her not to open it.
Seeing that she hesitated and refused to move, Shu Yuqing did not urge her and continued to patiently sip her tea.
Jiang Xin had never seen such a cold expression on her mother's face. She was scared; she was afraid that her mother really didn't want her anymore.
"mom......"
Shu Yuqing didn't even glance at her.
