The longer Ding Weiwei stayed at the Lu family's house, the more anxious she became.
Tang Li seemed to belong to their world, like an intruder who had suddenly barged in, completely out of place.
Despite her best efforts to make her behavior and speech appear more like that of a lady from this wealthy estate.
But there's still a comical feeling of trying to draw a tiger but ending up with a dog instead.
She couldn't distinguish between different types of red wine, didn't know how to match colors in her clothes, and had no idea how to appreciate piano music.
If she couldn't learn it or remember it, then she would find a way to destroy the order of the manor and throw it into chaos.
Early in the morning, Lu's mother rushed out of the bedroom, shouting loudly, her face full of panic, covering her face, and still wearing her pajamas.
"Tang Li, what's wrong with you?!"
She stormed into the living room in a huff.
"Bang!"
Lu's mother threw a bottle of face cream on the coffee table in the living room, glared at her daughter-in-law, and her face was full of anger.
"There's something wrong with the skincare products you gave me. I'm having such a terrible allergic reaction. You're not trying to hurt me, are you?!"
She scratched herself a few more times, the itching was unbearable, and her skin was red and swollen. She had arranged to play mahjong with some wealthy ladies that morning.
"Where's my family doctor? Where's the doctor? I'm so frustrated! How did I end up with someone like you? Did you try to save money and buy a fake product?"
Tang Li's cold gaze swept over the red marks on Lu's mother's face, unmoved.
All the chaos and disaster in this manor today was brought back by Lu Chengyi; it has nothing to do with her.
"Mom, I bought genuine products from department store counters, so they can't be fake."
After a pause, Tang Li smiled and said, "However, whether someone is behind this or not, we don't know."
"What do you mean by that? There are things left in our house, and people..."
Thinking about all the messy things that had happened recently, yesterday afternoon, Lu's mother even invited a fortune teller to come home and have his fortune told.
The master said that her son and daughter-in-law were incompatible and not suitable to live together. If the two of them were together, they would definitely cause unrest in the family.
Looking back now, some of those statements were actually correct.
Mother Lu was thinking to herself that she needed to get Tang Li away as soon as possible.
Little did she know, that "master" was a charlatan whom Ding Weiwei had bribed in advance for a few hundred yuan.
Tang Li slowly stood up. "It's hard to guard against a thief within the family. It's not surprising that I installed a lot of cameras in my house. It just so happened that they recorded this!"
As she spoke, she took the tablet from Aunt Wu's hand, swiped it open, found the surveillance video, and placed it on the dining table.
Now everyone could see clearly that Ding Weiwei had sneaked into Tang Li's bedroom and added something to the face cream.
"Smack!"
"ah!"
The slap from Lu's mother left Ding Weiwei dizzy and disoriented, causing her to fall to the ground.
"Ding Weiwei, what are you up to? You want to kill me?!"
Ding Weiwei's eyes filled with tears. Tang Li was so scheming, even installing cameras in the bedroom. It seemed she would have to be careful in everything she did from now on.
"I didn't, madam, I just... I just..."
Tang Li snorted coldly, "You just wanted to harm me. Unexpectedly, by a twist of fate, I gave that brand-new set of skincare products to my mother-in-law. Miss Ding, you are really clever!"
The raging anger emanating from Ding Weiwei's eyes almost set Tang Li ablaze.
"Tang Li, you knew there was something wrong with that skincare product, yet you still gave it to Madam to use. You're the most wicked one!"
Tang Li casually fiddled with her nails. "If the skincare products hadn't caused the problem, I wouldn't have thought to check the security camera footage. Besides, I bought those for my mother-in-law in the first place!"
"Ding Weiwei, you're dishonest yourself and you're trying to pin it on someone else. I told you you're not allowed in my room, have you forgotten?"
As she spoke, she strode up to Ding Weiwei, looked down at her, and smiled coldly.
If you want to climb higher, you have to see if you're worthy of it.
"Mom, are you sure we want a nanny who's dishonest?"
Lu's mother looked impatiently at her reflection in the mirror she was holding.
"Whatever, you little bitch! I'm the one who's really unlucky. Why isn't the doctor here yet? He's so slow and indecisive, it's so annoying!"
Ding Weiwei panicked. If she were kicked out of the Lu family now, wouldn't all her previous efforts be in vain? All her hard work over the past few years would be for nothing!
She hurriedly crawled to Madam Lu's feet, looking at her with a pleading expression, "Madam, you can't send me away. I have something to tell you, it's very important, and I need to tell you alone."
"What can I possibly say to you!"
Lu's mother turned away from her with disgust, as if she had touched something dirty on her leg and wanted to avoid it at all costs.
When Lu's mother saw Ding Weiwei's hand suggestively touching her belly, she seemed to realize something.
She glanced at it impatiently. "Come with me."
Lu's mother's bedroom.
Ding Weiwei honestly confessed, "Madam, I am pregnant, and the child in my belly is Chengyi's."
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Lu's mother felt a surge of joy.
If Cheng Yi has a child and Lu Jianshen doesn't remarry and has no descendants, then his billions in assets will belong to his nephew!
Ding Weiwei coaxed in a flattering tone, "Madam, you're going to be a grandmother!"
Lu's mother hurriedly helped her up, and the anger in her heart instantly vanished.
"Then you must take good care of yourself during this time, and you absolutely cannot have any problems!"
Ding Weiwei looked on expectantly, "Madam, I will definitely protect your precious grandson, but I want to stay by Chengyi's side."
She wasn't wrong; this child was her biggest trump card.
Lu's mother patted her hand, "Don't worry, I'll handle things outside. Just don't cause any more trouble like this in the future!"
