Chapter 282: Chapter 282: It’s the Second Young Mistress_1 Chapter 282: Chapter 282: It’s the Second Young Mistress_1 In the villa’s living room, He Rongxi was taking off his suit jacket as he addressed Little Tao, “Where’s the young lady? Call her out, it’s time she met her sister.”
Little Tao, her innocent face lifted, her big eyes full of admiration as she looked up at He Rongxi, whispered, “The young lady’s sister?”
He Rongxi wore a cold expression, but after all, He Jinlan was his own flesh and blood. No matter how hard-hearted he was, he couldn’t cast her out at this time, he could only swallow his pride.
“Yes! Call the young lady out.”
Little Tao looked surprised, her eyes widened as she saw He Jinlan entering the door. She bore a striking resemblance to Jing Tong; she was the young lady’s sister…Doesn’t that mean she was also Mr. He’s daughter?
And was she even older than the young lady?
Wouldn’t that mean Mr. He had been involved with Mrs. Jing Tong for a very long time?
Upon this realization, Little Tao felt a surge of hateful betrayal, coupled with a subtle thrill and excitement. If Jing Tong could turn from a mere sparrow to a glamorous phoenix, why couldn’t she?
Furthermore, she had the support of the young lady’s uncle, which was far better than Jing Tong had!
All along, Little Tao had been trying to curry favor under Jing Tong, barely surviving. Now suddenly, she might be able to overthrow the one who had once trampled on her, the thought was incredibly stimulating.
“Sir, the young lady has gone back to school. Oh, and she’s attending a school in Qi Li Town now, no longer the private school she used to attend.”
Upon hearing this, He Rongxi was furious, “Nonsense! Didn’t I forbid her to go? How did she end up there?”
“It was her uncle who drove her there.”
He Rongxi’s face softened a little. He waved his hand and said, “Alright! Since it was arranged by her uncle, let it be!”
He couldn’t afford to offend the Leng Family right now.
Little Tao glanced at He Jinlan, feeling strangely proud. Although she was just a servant, she felt she was far superior to an illegitimate child.
Upon entering, He Jinlan spotted the good looking Little Tao, and shot Jing Tong a surprised look. Her own mother, who had managed to deftly deflect an investigation, left her in awe.
Why would she keep such a dishonest person around?
Jing Tong merely sent back a cold laugh, before informing her in a whisper, “Only dishonest people can do good deeds for you. What can an honest person accomplish?”
He Jinlan couldn’t agree more.
“Good day, ma’am. Good day, young lady’s sister.” Little Tao greeted them with bowed head and respectful tone.
Upon hearing her, Jing Tong’s face darkened, and she scolded, “What nonsense are you uttering? What did you call ‘the young lady’s sister’? Who gave you such audacity?”
But really, when Jing Tong scolded the He Family’s servants, she carried an impressive air of authority.
Although Little Tao was ambitious, she was inexperienced. Being scolded instantly made her as timid as a quail.
“I’m sorry, ma’am… I’m not sure what to call her.”
“She’s our He Family’s second young lady, Sha Sha’s little sister.” Jing Tong coldly rebuked, “Remember this, if you dare to address her wrongly, don’t blame me for being ruthless. I’m tolerant of many things because I’m a kind person. But I don’t tolerate mistakes in someone’s title. Do you understand?”
Jing Tong smiled, gently turning to He Rongxi and said in a charming tone, “Darling, don’t you agree? Jinlan is clearly the second young lady! When did she become the young lady?”
He Rongxi, who in his anger had been confused just now, hastily nodded in agreement. He put on a patriarch’s demeanor and formally declared it so.
