Shui Anluo held her spoon and gently drew a line in the bowl. She then softly remarked, “She’s quite pretty.”
“Heh, is she?” He Xiaoran sneered again.
Shui Anluo trembled. Her ex-mother-in-law’s temper can come and go just like that, it was too frightening.
Shui Anluo summoned her courage and nodded. “Very pretty.”
This was the truth. Otherwise, Yuan Jiayi would never have been able to enter the international modeling circuit.
“It’s all man-made.” He Xiaoran’s tone was as chilly as ever. “After what happened to her parents, Ningyi had brought her home. At the time, Ningyi was still in the armed forces. She had once stolen Ningyi’s father’s money and ran off to Korea for a face-lift.”
Shui Anluo’s mouth opened slightly as if she was shocked by the revelation. Yuan Jiayi had actually done such a thing.
No wonder He Xiaoran was so sick of her. “Isn’t Ningyi aware of this?”
“He was in the armed forces so how could I tell him? Later on, they had communicated on their own,” He Xiaoran replied bleakly. “Luoluo, I’ll admit that I don’t like you very much but, in contrast with Yuan Jiayi, I hope that you’ll be able to stay by Ningyi’s side.”
Shui Anluo lowered her head. Once, He Xiaoran had accepted her because she was still a woman compared to An Fengyang. Now, He Xiaoran had accepted her entirely because, when compared to Yuan Jiayi, she was more likable to the elders.
Hence, was the reason why her former mother-in-law never turned her back on her because she was much better when compared to the others?
“Yuan Jiayi is not what she seems. She’s a deeply scheming person so you better avoid interacting with her,” He Xiaoran requested.
Shui Anluo had never thought about contacting Yuan Jiayi but that arrogant pig, Chu Ningyi, had told Yuan Jiayi to look for her if she needed anything. Was that not just giving Shui Anluo more problems?
“Just because she had a face-lift?” Shui Anluo asked, curious. Does that determine whether a woman was good or bad?
“If it were merely due to the face-lift, these things would not be an issue.” He Xiaoran’s voice grew even colder. “She had bad grades and couldn’t even enter university. When she wanted to become a model, Ningyi’s grandmother resolutely opposed it but she still did it. How do you think a teenage girl like her would have managed to advance?”
Once Shui Anluo heard He Xiaoran’s piece, she saw the anger in her eyes and suddenly understood. After a while, she asked, “Is Director Chu aware of this?”
“What do you think?” He Xiaoran looked at Shui Anluo.
Shui Anluo quickly lowered her head and continued to chew on her spoon. How would I know?
“But…” Shui Anluo could not resist her curiosity and looked up again. “Knowing the Chu family’s reputation, as Director Chu’s girlfriend, wouldn’t that have been enough for her to gain fame?”
“The Chu family’s name isn’t for others to use.”
“Oh…” Shui Anluo smiled awkwardly, “But why are you telling me this?”
“I simply want to tell you, Shui Anluo, if you allow someone like that to defeat you, I’m really going to scrutinize you all over again.” He Xiaoran stared sharply at Shui Anluo.
Shui Anluo automatically shrank away. She had never thought about competing against anyone.
“Luoluo, out of the things I’ve told you today, you should be able to distinguish between what you can or cannot tell Ningyi,” said He Xiaoran. She then rose to her feet and gave the little darling back to Shui Anluo. “Do what you can in your job at the hospital. If you can’t manage it, just stay home to support your husband and educate your child.”
After Shui Anluo accepted the little darling, she stared at her former mother-in-law in horror. “About that, I…”
“I’m just reminding you, there’s no need to trouble yourself,” said He Xiaoran before she turned around and left.
