Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhuang Xian had just arrived, and they were already so eager to send a young general to play the vanguard. They were in such a hurry that they didn’t even know how to hide their ugly faces.
Zhuang Jie hated it the most when others mentioned her changing her surname. This was her mother’s ambition, to begin with. Zhuang Jing refused to let go of the Zhuang family’s assets easily, which was why there was a Zhuang Jie who followed her surname.
In this way, Zhuang Jie was also considered a descendant of the Zhuang family, and she had a good reason for doing so.
However, no one in the Zhuang family was stupid. Zhuang Jing’s move was rather shallow, so it was often used as a joke.
Zhuang Xian pretended to understand. “I see. This is the first time I’ve heard of such a thing.”
Zhuang Jie was so angry that her breathing became heavy. She looked at Zhuang Xian with a dangerous expression.
After a long time, she turned around and said to Lin En, “Mom asked me to bring you some things. You can take a look.”
Lin En smiled and nodded. She got up and said, “Sure, let me go and see.”
It wasn’t right to bully a child, but this girl was too much. She didn’t even have a lock on her mouth. How could she let her precious daughter, who she had just gotten into her hands, be bullied so openly and secretly? Naturally, she could not.
Zhuang Xian and Lin En looked at each other, and there was a tacit understanding.
Lin En took the things to the kitchen, leaving only Zhuang Xian and Zhuang Jie in the living room.
Zhuang Jie held the cup in her hand and looked at Zhuang Xian coldly. “What kind of drug did you give Uncle and Aunt? Why are they so good to you?”
Zhuang Xian looked up at her innocently. “Sister, why do you have such a strong hostility towards me? Have I ever offended you?”
“You’re calling me sister? Are you even worthy?” Zhuang Jie sat up straight and looked Zhuang Xian up and down with her haughty eyes. The disdain in her eyes was obvious. “What kind of poor person are you? How dare you try to have any relationship with me! I’m the only lady in the Zhuang family. Who do you think you are?”
At home, Zhuang Jie had been spoiled rotten by her mother. As someone who was more arrogant than the sky, she naturally looked down on Zhuang Xian, who had come from an orphanage.
This was the same scene as in her previous life. Zhuang Jie was full of sarcasm and insults toward Zhuang Xian, who had just arrived at the Zhuang family. From the first time she saw Zhuang Xian, she did not like her, especially her face, which was much more beautiful than hers. Just looking at her made her feel annoyed.
Zhuang Xian wasn’t angered by her words. Only an incompetent person would be anxious and bluffing.
“If your position as the ‘lady of the Zhuang family’ was stable, would you still be in such a hurry to declare your sovereignty?” Zhuang Xian looked at her with a smile.
Zhuang Jie was hurt by the sarcasm in her eyes and said angrily, “You!”
“What did I do?”
Zhuang Jie’s eyes turned red from her words. She would not allow this cheap woman to humiliate her like this. She casually picked up the coffee on the table and splashed it at Zhuang Xian.
Zhuang Xian dodged it, but her shoulder was still touched. The coffee was dark in color, and when reflected on her white clothes, it looked a little scary.
“What are you doing?”
“What’s going on?”
Two surprised voices came from behind her. When Zhuang Jie heard them, she was shocked. She turned around to look at him and Lin En, she panicked a little and her voice became a little unhappy.
Zhuang Xian looked at her shoulder and then at Zhuang Jie, without saying a word.
Lin En stepped forward to check on Zhuang Xian’s condition. “How are you? It didn’t burn you, right? Quickly let mommy see!”
Zhuang Xian shook her head. “I’m fine. The coffee was not hot.”
Lin En saw that her expression did not appear to be fake, so she turned around and shouted, “Zhuang Jie, what’s wrong with you? Why did you splash the coffee on Xian? Are you crazy?”
“Aunt, I …” Zhuang Jie was still holding the cup in her hand. She was unable to refute Zhuang Xian’s words. She looked at Zhuang Xian and pointed at her. “It’s her fault! She was the one who scolded me, so I poured it on her!”
“Really?” Zhuang Xian asked. “What did I say?”
“She scolded me…Scolded me …” Zhuang Xian was a little flustered as she looked at the people in front of her. Lin En was frowning at her, and Zhuang Hang was also looking at her indifferently with a hint of disgust in his eyes. The calmest person in the entire process was Zhuang Xian.
“It was her, it was her fault! Aunt, how can you care for an outsider?” Zhuang Jie said excitedly as she looked at Lin En.
Lin En used to dote on her a lot.
Lin En felt that Zhuang Jie was a little confused about the current situation. She was the one who had come to their house and bullied her daughter, so how could she have the face to blame her?
Sighing, Lin En said, “Even if Xian scolded you, you shouldn’t have splashed coffee on her! What if you scorched her? You’re both girls, how could you be so cruel?”
