Chapter 839: Chapter 839: What Are You Looking for Her For?
Rong Yan said expressionlessly, “You know exactly why you picked me up and reluctantly let me stay in the Rong Family. Of course, I don’t deny that you raised me, but over the years, how many disgusting things Rong Weiwei has done to me, and how many traps the Old Madam has set for me, do I need to list them all out for you again? I’ve never bothered with any of these; it has long settled any debt of gratitude I had towards you!”
The most ridiculous part was that Jiang Meiqi had no affection for her whatsoever. People say that even raising a dog for over ten years can foster some feelings, but in Jiang Meiqi’s heart, she was even less than a dog.
Apart from the fact that Jiang Meiqi had to acknowledge her as ‘Rong Nanfeng’s daughter’ and keep her at the Rong Family for her own benefit, she wished she could kick her out, seeing her as a thorn in her side. She always thought that she had taken Rong Weiwei’s place, preventing Rong Weiwei from enjoying the treatment of a ‘wealthy young lady.’
In reality, she was a ‘wealthy young lady’ who lived in a room with the servants, who had to work part-time jobs to earn every penny she spent beyond food and school.
In Capital City’s high society, she was an utter joke.
Many people took her story to be a topic of gossip after meals, a spectacle that her ‘birth mother,’ the well-off Mrs. Rong, couldn’t wait to witness.
Jiang Meiqi even looked down on her more than others, cursing her behind her back with much worse words.
Jiang Meiqi’s face turned red with rage, and, taking advantage of her age, she stepped forward to grab Rong Yan’s clothes tightly, refusing to let go, “Just by saying you don’t owe anything, that settles it? Money, what about the money? Other than consuming my care, didn’t you need money for food, clothing, and schooling? You’ve spent so much money from the family; you can’t just say you don’t owe anything with a slip of the tongue. There’s no such easy deal in this world. If you want to separate yourself from me, fine, but you’ll have to repay every penny I spent on you, then we can barely consider you don’t owe me!”
That’s how it should be. This little bastard, posing as her daughter, had enjoyed the life of a wealthy heiress for so many years for free. Were these debts something she could just clear away with a few words? Wishful thinking!
“Finally, you’ve come to the point,” Rong Yan looked at her coldly, “Mrs. Rong came here today for money, right? Are you in need of money?”
Jiang Meiqi wished she could tear this despicable girl’s mouth apart, but she couldn’t refute her since she indeed desperately needed money, which is why she came to block this despicable girl at the entrance of KT Entertainment, “Whether I am lacking money or not is none of your business. You were the one who claimed you don’t owe me anymore; I’m telling you, if you want to define clear boundaries with me, you’d better repay everything I spent on you. Otherwise, don’t act as if I owe you anything in front of me.”
Rong Yan tugged at her own clothes, her expression indifferent, “It seems to me that all my past expenses for food, drink, clothes, and school fees have nothing to do with Mrs. Rong; if I owe anyone, it’s Mr. Rong. Mrs. Rong doesn’t seem to have earned a single cent herself!”
“As for my debt to Mr. Rong, I’ve already settled that by helping him rescue Rong Mu last time. Mr. Rong himself has no objections.”
Jiang Meiqi didn’t know that she had met with Rong Nanfeng privately, which made her even more furious and caused her complexion to change, “Did you run to your dad and talk nonsense, didn’t you?”
“…” Rong Yan didn’t understand her at first, but quickly caught on and said with a laugh, “Does Mrs. Rong really think that after all this, you can still hide the truth from Mr. Rong?”
