Chapter 16 Waiting for the Best Price



"What's it to you?"

Song Ning rolled her eyes at Qin Boyan.

"The person standing next to me is my sister-in-law. What business is it of mine?"

Qin Boyan glared at her angrily: "Don't think I don't know you're plotting against my sister-in-law. I'm warning you, you'd better keep your little schemes to yourself!" His gaze swept over Song Ning and Luo Yueqin, and then he said to Song Lan: "Sister-in-law, let's go back to the living room. There's no need to waste any more words with them."

"Second Sister!"

This was Song Jiaojiao's voice. She walked in from outside the Qin family's courtyard gate and happened to see Qin Boyan calling Song Lan back to the living room. Her eyes flickered slightly, and she called out to Song Lan.

However, Song Lan merely glanced at her indifferently before turning her gaze away and walking forward with Qin Boyan.

"Second sister, can you please listen to me for a few minutes?"

Judging from Luo Yueqin and Song Ning's expressions, Song Jiaojiao knew that the two hadn't accomplished their task. She was both dissatisfied and felt that Luo Yueqin and Song Ning were useless. However, she didn't show much emotion on her face. Instead, she quickly took a few steps to shorten the distance between herself and Song Lan, and said in a tone of "for your own good," "I suppose Second Sister already knows why Mother came to see you today."

To be honest, whether you believe it or not, we just didn't want to see you suffer, so we kindly offered you some advice..."

Before Song Jiaojiao could continue, Song Lan stared at her with a cold expression: "You've gone to such lengths to persuade me to get a divorce, do you think you're the only smart ones and everyone else is a fool?"

As the sound faded, an invisible aura suddenly spread out around Song Lan, and this aura was unstoppable, like a thousand troops galloping past.

Song Jiaojiao involuntarily took two steps back.

She felt the aura and pressure emanating from Song Lan, and inexplicably felt terrified.

"You...you're my second sister?"

Her voice trembled slightly as she spoke, and Song Jiaojiao involuntarily recalled what she had been pondering these past two days: the changes in Song Lan, or more precisely, the changes that had occurred in Song Lan's courtyard that day.

She was suspicious, yes, she was suspicious that Song Lan was from the same background as her: not the original!

Song Jiaojiao didn't think she was just imagining things.

reason?

That day in the Song family courtyard, Song Lan's temperament suddenly changed.

"You are you, and I am me. Please don't try to establish any connection!"

With a cold and calm gaze, Song Lan said, "I'll say it one last time: I will not get a divorce. Do whatever you want, but there's absolutely no way you'll force me to comply!"

Hearing her words, Luo Yueqin suppressed her anger and said, "Lanlan, why are you so stubborn?" Is this the daughter she has raised for more than ten years? The aura that the brat exuded just a moment ago was truly astonishing, and even now she is still apprehensive.

"Whether I'm stubborn and unyielding, or you have ulterior motives towards me, you know better than anyone else!"

Song Lan's tone was cold, showing no mercy to Luo Yueqin: "Before Song Jiaojiao appeared, I was indeed pampered at home, but wasn't that just you waiting for the right price? You thought I was good-looking and obedient, so that I could marry into a wealthy family and bring you benefits after I came of age! Aunt Luo, do you agree with what I'm saying?"

"How could you think of your father and me like that? We love and pamper you simply because you are our daughter, and we have never had any ulterior motives involved!"

Yes, she and the head of the household doted on their youngest daughter because she was beautiful, smart, and quick to learn, and that she would be able to marry into a good family and bring benefits to the household. But she would never admit it, especially not in front of that brat!
