After Yang Shushu finished her meal and took a shower, she went back to her room and took a nap. She slept for the entire afternoon and was not woken up until dinner time.
It was not Liu Ma who woke her up, but a somewhat familiar face. Actually, it was not just somewhat familiar, but quite familiar, because this face looked a bit like her, and she had seen it in a video not long ago.
The woman looked more refined and elegant than in the video. When she woke up, she smiled. The smile was actually quite sweet, but different from Yang Shushu's sweetness with a hint of chili. This sweetness was a bit deliberate and a bit greasy.
"Ah, Qiuqiu, you're awake. Look at your little face, it's been bruised from sleeping. You're a girl, but you don't know how to take good care of yourself. Look at your rough skin. Oh, tomorrow mom will take you to the beauty salon to fix your skin. If people see my daughter's skin is so rough, they will laugh at me. Tell me, are your parents who raised you particularly mean to you? They don't even want to buy you cosmetics?"
Jiang Lina's face was full of heartache, as if her heart was broken.
Yang Shushu looked at her indifferently, her eyes even a little cold. "Mrs. Ji, my parents are very good to me. As for what you said about my skin, I'm sorry, but I have a lot to do and learn every day. Unlike you, you spend 24 hours a day on your face. Unfortunately, time is always fair."
After she finished speaking, she tilted the corner of her mouth upwards and witnessed Jiang Lina's expression changing from annoyed to furious. She even saw a hint of contempt on her face. Then, as if she thought of something, she suppressed her anger and replaced it with a sad face.
"Qiuqiu, Mom knows you have resentment in your heart, but Mom and Dad have been looking for you all these years. I don't know how many missing person notices we have posted. The Internet is so developed now, I don't believe your couple didn't see it. They definitely don't want to return you to us easily. I heard from your brother that he was reluctant to tell you the truth at first, and only relented after you took 20 million. To put it bluntly, it was all about the money. Qiuqiu, Mom really missed you all these years."
As she spoke, she stretched out her arms and hugged Yang Shushu, but Yang Shushu dodged her directly, got off the bed, poured herself a glass of water, drank it, turned around and saw Jiang Lina still awkwardly maintaining the same posture. She couldn't help but laugh and said sarcastically: "Madam Ji, you are not the same as others in this world. You think money is the most important thing, but it doesn't mean that others do too. Don't judge others by your own thoughts. The tens of millions you gave me, my parents have already paid it back, our family doesn't owe that little money. As for what you said about thinking about me and crying, hehe... then I really have to thank you."
When she said the last sentence, her smile suddenly disappeared. Jiang Lina turned around and saw it. When she saw such a cold expression on a face that looked similar to her own, she was inexplicably startled and fell onto the bed. Unconsciously, she used her usual method of pretending to be weak. She put her hand on her chest and was about to cry: "Qiuqiu, how can you say that about your mother? I am your biological mother."
Yang Shushu was a little annoyed by her exaggerated hypocrisy: "Come on, stop acting. If it weren't for the fact that you gave me life, I really want to slap you twice. You are so disgusting."
Why is everyone in the Ji family so disgusting? Ji Chenru barely tolerated it, but this woman, with a face similar to hers, showing such a disgusting expression, was really annoying. If it was sincere, even if there was no emotion, at least she was willing to acknowledge this mother for her original body, but this——
She just wanted to kick him away.
Jiang Lina probably didn't expect that the method she had used for decades had always been successful, and even Ji Chenru, who had been her husband for decades, fell for it. Her own daughter actually had such an attitude.
She wiped her face, sat up straight, and didn't bother to pretend anymore: "Okay, if that's the case, then I don't have to pretend to be a loving mother and daughter. I'll just have to trouble you to act in front of others."
Yang Shushu curled her lips and said, "I actually look a lot better now, Madam Ji."
Jiang Lina was choked by her laughter again: "You also said, after all, I gave birth to you, calling me mom, you don't feel any loss, right?"
"Well, like you said, I have to give you some respect in front of others, right?"
As she spoke, she sat down in the place where Jiang Li's daughter had just sat. She found that Jiang Li's daughter was easier to deal with than Ji Chenru. Ji Chenru was an old fox. No matter how she disdained him, he always looked like a kind father. But Jiang Li'na, she could reveal her true nature with just a few words, which was a good opportunity for her to take advantage of her.
"Since Madam Ji has already spoken out, why don't we talk a little more openly? What is the purpose of calling me back? You have to let me know so that I can cooperate, right?"
Jiang Lina was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that she was actually quite sensible. Unlike Ji Chenru, she didn't think comprehensively and long-term. All she wanted was endless wealth to squander and a life of superiority forever.
Since Yang Shushu expressed her willingness to cooperate, she told her directly.
"The old man, your grandfather, had a strange dream one day. He dreamed that his ancestors said that only the eldest granddaughter could make the Ji family prosperous. He then remembered you who had been lost that year and began to search all over the world. Since this year, the old man's health has been getting worse day by day, but he still thinks about the ancestral foundation of the Ji family. He wants to find the eldest granddaughter so that the Ji family can prosper and prosper. How is it? Suddenly knowing that you are the heir to such a big family, do you feel a little panicked?"
Yang Shushu looked at her calmly, as if she were a fool, and then she smiled: "Yeah, I was quite panicked."
It's ridiculous that a dream determines the future of a family. She thinks the Ji family is really doomed this time. Zuo Jinheng told her before that the Ji family is actually just like the Jia family in Dream of the Red Chamber, with only flourishing flowers and scorching oil.
Jiang Lina looked at her and nodded with a half-smile on her face, with an unhappy expression. She didn't like this daughter. Even though she knew she was her own daughter, she just couldn't like her. She looked so pretty, but her eyes made people feel irritated. It was as if every corner of her heart had been scanned by her, making people feel embarrassed and unable to avoid it.
"Pack up and go have dinner. Tonight is just a family gathering. There will be a banquet tomorrow to officially announce your identity. You don't need to be nervous. Just smile when you meet people. I'll take care of the rest."
Jiang Lina stood up, and the forced affection of family was gone from her face. She looked like a proud peacock. To be honest, her face didn't really suit her.
Yang Shushu stretched in front of her, holding her stomach and stood up: "I'm hungry, let's go."
Jiang Lina watched her movements and pursed her lips in dissatisfaction: "How did the Mu family choose you as their daughter-in-law? You are so vulgar."
Yang Shushu smiled back at her: "Who said you fell in love with me? We are getting divorced soon."
