Granny Zhu was in the habit of strolling through the garden in the morning; sne nad just returned to see tms scene unt01d1ng.

Her icy gaze swept over Zhu Xiangxiang who was screaming hysterically, hair disheveled, causing Zhu Xiangxiang to shrink back slightly.

In the whole Zhu family, the one she feared the most was Granny Zhu.

“Granny, I need to tell you, there’s been a major incident.” Zhou Ying ran over and quickly summarized the situation. In the end, she managed to throw some shade on Zhu Xiangxiang: “We can’t really blame Xiangxiang, after all, despising the poor and loving the rich is ingrained in some people. Who can blame her for not having our Zhu family genes, unlike cousin, who never abandoned her junior sisters, even when she became successful. It’s all in the contrast, isn’t it?”

Granny Zhu glanced at Zhao Xiaohui, which made her even more nervous. This old lady seemed even tougher to deal with than Madam Zhu.

“Xiangxiang has been raised in our family for sixteen years, not lifting a finger to do any chores. Do you think she can handle a hard life with you?”

Zhao Xiaohui quickly responded, “Though our living conditions may not be as good, my love for Xiangxiang will never change. She is my own flesh and blood that I carried for ten months, if I don’t treat her well then, who would I treat well? I only fear that no matter how much I try, I might never be able to make up for the sixteen years I owe her.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing’s gaze wavered, and she stood rooted to the spot.

Yes, such a simple logic, why did it take her so long to understand it?

Zhu Xiangxiang’s very existence was an injustice against Ming Jing; she was wrong from the very beginning.

With this realization, Lin Qing’s gaze hardened. Without any room for argument, she said, “Xiangxiang, you know how I’ve treated you these sixteen years, as you do what you’ve done. My silence was to preserve our dignity. Just leave. I’ll transfer a sum of money to your account, enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life. Consider it your early dowry. From today, our bond as mother and daughter is severed. When we meet again, let’s act as strangers.”

Lin Qing’s calm voice extinguished the last bit of hope in Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart.

So, Lin Qing had known all along. Was it Zhu Mingjing who told her?

At this moment, Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart inflamed with rage. She despised Lin Qing’s heartlessness, Zhu Mingjing’s existence, and even more, the cruel jokes fate played on her.

What sins had Zhu Xiangxiang committed in her past life to deserve such constant ridicule from fate in this life?

Zhu Xiangxiang no longer pleaded or caused a scene, she respectfully knelt down before Lin Qing and kowtowed three times.

“Mom, this will be the last time I call you mom. After I leave, take care of yourself. I admit I’m not a good daughter compared to Ming Jing, but I’m relieved to know that she’ll be with you.”

Lin Qing turned away, not looking at her anymore.

Zhu Xiangxiang also came before Granny Zhu and solemnly kowtowed three times.

“Granny, I won’t be there to take care of you anymore, please take care of yourself.”

Granny Zhu wasn’t a heartless person, seeing the situation, she took off the jade bangle from her wrist and put it on Zhu Xiangxiang, patting her hand gently, “Settle your mind in future, don’t be so headstrong and impatient. Sometimes you just need to let go, and you’ll see a different world. It’s not fate that’s playing tricks on you, it’s you clinging onto fate.”

Coming from an old woman who had seen her fair share of life, these heartfelt enlightening words echoed in the room.

Ming Chen and Ming Ti exchanged looks, filled with reverence for Granny Zhu.

Zhu Xiangxiang kept her resentment at bay, nodded and replied, “I understand,

Granny.”

Zhao Xiaohui joyfully came over and held Zhu Xiangxiang’s hand, this time Zhu Xiancxianc didn’t Dull it back.

Madam Zhou wiped her tears, “I’ll pack Xiangxiang’s luggage.”

Zhu Xiangxiang wanted to keep her aloofness, but she couldn’t. Going back with Zhao Xiaohui, she could already envision their pinched future. She had to ensure her own life remained unaffected.

While packing her stuff, Zhou Ying kept following her, mumbling annoying words into her ears.

By this time, Zhu Xiangxiang had nothing left to argue about.

She took just a few basic necessities and some change of clothes. Madam Zhou said she would have a driver deliver the rest.

As she picked up her suitcase and walked out of the room, the door across remained firmly shut.

Zhu Xiangxiang’s gaze darkened, her teeth gritted.

Throughout this, Zhu Mingjing hadn’t shown up once. That was just her style, avoiding any chaotic crowd.

Even in this joyful occasion of her disgracefully leaving the Zhu family, she didn’t come out to add insult to injury.

Zhu Mingjing ah, always so disinterested and contented, like a banished immortal.

Zhu Xiangxiang lowered her gaze, was all this really a coincidence?

Zhu Mingjing, are you really as indifferent as you seem on the surface?

All of this is just an act, I too was almost deceived by you.

Just wait, I will personally tear off your mask of deceit and watch you being kicked out of the Zhu family.

My usurping someone else’s life was due to fate while you knowingly played a dead man’s part, deceiving the Zhu family and the world.

You deserve punishment.

Lin Qing ordered the driver to send them home. When Zhao Xiaohui got into the luxurious car for the first time, her eyes darted around, touching here and there, her behavior made Zhu Xiangxiang frown.

“Xiangxiang, don’t worry, I’ll surely treat you well.” Zhao Xiaohui patted Zhu Xiangxiang’s hand and saw the exquisite jade bangle on her wrist.

Zhao Xiaohui’s eyes flickered, murmuring, “That old Madam Zhu really is generous to give you this fine jade bangle just like that. It must be really expensive.” She reached out to touch it.

Zhu Xiangxiang pulled her hand back before she could touch it, turning to stare outside the car window, giving Zhao Xiaohui a cold profile.

Zhao Xiaohui wasn’t annoyed and continued smiling, “The girl who led me in must be the true daughter whose life you’ve been living, no wonder she’s more favored by Madam Zhu and Granny Zhu. She’s not only beautiful but also socially adept. Compared to her, you stand no chance.”

Zhu Xiangxiang couldn’t take it anymore. “I know I’m no match for Zhu Ming

Jing, can you stop reminding me about it?”

Zhao Xiaohui was taken aback, “Alright, alright, I won’t push you. Let’s go home first, your dad and your little brother are waiting for you.” Zhu Xiangxiang gritted her teeth, ‘Who is my biological father?”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaohui’s face turned pale, “Why mention that heartless bastard? Just think of him as dead. If he hadn’t deceived me, I wouldn’t have secretly given birth to you, and your grandma wouldn’t have hidden it from me and secretly sent you away, causing us to be separated for so many years.”

Zhu Xiangxiang took in a deep breath; her birth mother was seriously a chatterbox, talking her ears off.

Zhou Ying knocked on Ming Jing’s door, “Cousin, you missed out on a really good show. If you had seen Zhu Xiangxiang’s dejected look when she was kicked out of the Zhu family, you’d have been ecstatic.”

There was no response from the room. Zhou Ying pouted her lips. Well, her cousin was too nice to enjoy others’ misfortune..
