Chapter 403: Chapter 368: Is the Birth Mother Indifferent Like a Chrysanthemum? The Young Mistress Sabotages Effortlessly 8_2
Su Zhiruan pushed everything to the side and stood up to open the door.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw the old grandmother holding a bowl of sweet soup and a few pieces of pastry, and at that moment the old grandmother looked at her with a kind and benevolent expression, “Ruanruan, I don’t know if you’re hungry, but please eat something. These are your usual favorites, I brought them especially for you. Now that Madam has left, you can eat boldly, no one will see!”
While speaking, she stuffed all the food into Su Zhiruan’s hands, looking around anxiously, “Alright, alright, eat up quickly, otherwise it will get cold and won’t taste good. Hurry up and eat, and then I’ll clean up, so Madam won’t know anything!”
Su Zhiruan didn’t even have time to thank her before the old grandmother hurriedly closed the door.
Looking at the sweet soup and pastries in her hands, Su Zhiruan placed them on the table.
Perhaps the reason the original host deteriorated later was that there was still some flickering light sustaining her.
Without them, she dared not imagine what the original host would be like now, what kind of person she would have become?
Su Zhiruan hadn’t eaten much at noon, so not wanting to let the elderly lady down, she picked up the sweet soup and spooned it down mouthful by mouthful, and she also put away the pastries properly.
After she finished eating, the old grandmother knocked on the door in a rush. Su Zhiruan then handed her the dishes, and the old grandmother’s face quickly brightened with a smile. Nodding her head, she said, “Ruanruan, go back to your studies, study hard!”
“Thank you, I understand!” Su Zhiruan thanked her.
After returning to her room, Su Zhiruan didn’t lie back down on the bed. Instead, she unpacked all the clothes that Su Qin and Zhu Manqing had accompanied her to buy today. Then she removed all the plain black, white, and gray clothes from the wardrobe and replaced them with the colorful ones she had picked out today.
It was only after she saw that the wardrobe was filled with beautiful, bright clothes that she felt a little better.
Just then, a new message popped up on her newly purchased phone, with the contact name listed as Dad.
[Dad]: [Ruanruan, Dad has made an appointment for you with Dr. Xie, on next Thursday. I will take you there myself.]
Su Zhiruan tapped on the phone, replying with a simple “Okay.”
Today is Sunday, tomorrow is Monday, and on Monday she will have to go to school. That means by next Thursday, she would meet the ‘son of the different realms.’
Su Zhiruan knew the first thing she had to deal with was the mess the original host had left at school; she had been bullied in various ways by everyone. But now, having been replaced by someone else inside, she naturally wouldn’t let them do as they pleased anymore.
Su Zhiruan felt eager, almost unable to wait to give them a beating right then and there.
And just like that, the day passed quickly.
Su Zhiruan wasn’t the original host anymore. Knowing well that she was the actual young mistress, she casually went out for a stroll, exploring the villa. The villa was beautifully constructed, with a small garden at the front, and the main entrance to the villa at the very center. Around it were many pretty flower beds with lots of flowers and plants blooming profusely and brightly.
The second and third floors were their living areas, generally for Su Qin and Ning Fu, along with their precious son, the original host’s younger brother. The second floor was where Su Qin had his office, as well as a dressing room for Ning Fu’s brand-name cosmetics. Although she claimed that she did not care for gold and wealth, considering them external possessions, in reality, she was not indifferent to her face-saving jewelry and accessories.
Beyond that, the second floor also included a playhouse dedicated to Ning Fu’s precious son, as well as a media room and other multi-functional halls.
This was quite ironic. As the Su Family’s young mistress, the original host could only squeeze into a room with the servants on the first floor, whereas, on the second floor, so much space left unused was all decorated with rooms for entertainment purposes, which she seldom entered even once a year.
As for the third floor, that was where Su Qin and Ning Fu’s bedroom was. The bedroom was very large, and it even included a huge dressing room. Ning Fu’s dressing room alone was big enough to be three times the size of the room Su Zhiruan was living in.
Despite this, Ning Fu often berated the original host, calling her a thankless wretch.
Su Zhiruan now seriously wondered whether the original host might not actually be Ning Fu’s child at all. After all, even if the relationship wasn’t that close, it wouldn’t be this bizarre, would it?
If Su Zhiruan and Ning Fu were indeed mother and daughter, how could the relationship between mother and daughter be so antagonistic?
