“Mom, why are you here?” Jiang Meiqi put down the things in her hand, lifted her head, and said, “It wasn’t Weiwei. Weiwei rushed here after her magazine shoot and didn’t have time to buy these things. These were brought in just now by a nurse. They said someone came to see me, got to the door of the ward, but didn’t come in just left the stuff and walked away. I’ve been wondering who sent them.”
“I came to see you,” Old Madame Jiang said with a tense face, not knowing who she thought of, “Did the nurse say whether it was a man or a woman?”
Jiang Meiqi thought for a moment, “I think they said it was a young woman.”
A woman? And a young one at that? Old Madame Jiang’s face suddenly turned ugly, darkening as she said, “It couldn’t be that wretch Rong Yan, could it?”
“Rong Yan?” Jiang Meiqi’s expression quickly cooled, a hint of disgust seeping through her indifference, as if talking about a stranger, “What is she here for?”
“Humph! She’s most likely just putting on an act—what else would she come for!”
She had demanded over the phone that the wretch apologize to Weiwei, but that wretch was indifferent, her attitude so arrogant that she didn’t take it seriously at all!
“Did Weiwei just come by? You didn’t say something to Weiwei that she might have overheard, did you?” Old Madame Jiang asked, concerned.
Jiang Meiqi seemed very reluctant to hear Rong Yan’s name, turning her head to the side and coldly said, “So what if she heard? What could she possibly do!”
“I’m just worried that you couldn’t help but let slip that Weiwei is your biological daughter. If that wretch overhears and runs off to tell Nanfeng or expose it to the media, Weiwei will be in trouble,” Old Madam said worriedly.
Jiang Meiqi stiffened, her well-maintained face showing a resentful expression as she gritted her teeth, “If it wasn’t for Weiwei, do you think I would have tolerated her for so long? Look at how she treats Weiwei, opposing her at every turn! She is nothing but a foundling I picked up at the hospital; I’ve been more than generous to raise her all these years. What right does she have to oppose Weiwei!”
Her daughter was supposed to rightfully call her ‘mother,’ not like now, where despite being her biological child, she had to claim she was an adopted child of a friend to the outside world.
And that picked-up brat who was even pushed out still calls her ‘mom’ every chance she gets, occupying the place that belongs to her biological daughter!
Seeing her so emotional, Old Madame Jiang was startled and quickly urged her to keep her voice down, “Meiqi, don’t be so loud, be careful not to be overheard by people outside.”
“It just infuriates me. She’s just a brat of unknown origin, really thinks she’s my daughter. If it wasn’t for me picking her up and giving her an identity, who knows, she might have ended up in an orphanage long ago.”
She was just a baby abandoned in the hospital corridor. If it weren’t for her urgent need for a stand-in at that time, there’s no telling which orphanage she might be in now.
I owed her so much, yet that brat doesn’t appreciate me at all. Just because Weiwei stole a boyfriend from her, she opposes Weiwei at every turn.
Even if it’s true as she said, that Weiwei framed her to sleep with Mr. Huang, what does it matter? She got in Weiwei’s way.
Jiang Meiqi’s face was full of resentment as Old Madame Jiang sighed helplessly at her anger, “There’s no helping it. Since Weiwei isn’t your and Nanfeng’s daughter, to keep this from Nanfeng, you have no choice but to keep this secret. Otherwise, with Nanfeng’s temperament, he won’t let it go easily. If it causes a commotion, it’s Weiwei who will suffer in the end.”
