How can such a bitter thing sell for more than forty yuan a cup? It tastes even worse than she thought. Is this how rich people torture themselves?
Zhu Xiangxiang suddenly laughed, “The higher you climb, the harder you fall.”
Tang Wan looked at her and smiled, “That’s true. Have you found any evidence?”
Zhu Xiangxiang shook her head, “It still needs time. Let her enjoy herself a little longer.”
Zhu Xiangxiang never expected that the person who snatched the opportunity from her was Zhu Mingjing.
Zhu Mingjing was born to be her nemesis.
If it weren’t for Zhu Mingjing’s interference, she would be the one who was famous all over the country now.
Liang Xiaohong couldn’t swallow her anger. She spread a lot of rumors on the internet, but they were useless. Everyone seemed to be bewitched. If anyone dared to say anything bad about Zhu Mingjing, those stupid fans would chase and scold them like eczema.
She had been so angry that she couldn’t eat for days, and she had lost a lot of weight.
“Didn’t the young master of the Zhus come to see you a few days ago? You two grew up together, so your relationship should be very good, right?”
Mentioning Zhu Shaodan, Zhu Xiangxiang’s expression softened.
“Shaodan and I have been close since we were young. Even though he knows I’m not his real sister, he still treats me the same. It’s quite comforting.”
Tang Wan’s eyes turned, “Could it be that he has other feelings for you? He’s at the age when his hormones are raging… ”
Zhu Xiangxiang was startled, then understood Tang Wan’s meaning and her face changed instantly, “What nonsense are you talking about? We are siblings.”
“There’s no blood relation between you two; anyway, the way I saw him treat you last time didn’t seem like how a brother would treat a sister.”
Zhu Xiangxiang said righteously, “Don’t talk nonsense. My relationship with Shaodan isn’t what you think. We are just innocent siblings.”
“I trust you, of course. But as for Zhu Shaodan…I can’t say for sure.”
Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart suddenly started pounding. Tang Wan’s words reminded her to think carefully about Shaodan’s attitude towards her later on.
Could it be true…
Zhu Xiangxiang couldn’t accept this for a moment, but Tang Wan was right about one thing – they had no blood relation.
If Lin Qing knew, would she be so angry that she’d die…
With this thought, Zhu Xiangxiang felt a hidden sense of vengeful pleasure.
Tang Wan stirred her coffee, giving Zhu Xiangxiang a glance. Seeing her face change with various emotions, Tang Wan couldn’t help but curl her lips.
The more she stirred the water, the muddier it became, and the more interesting it got.
The car drove into the Zhus’ residence, and Uncle Wen ran into the living room, “Madam, Granny, the young lady is back.”
Everyone in the living room sat neatly on the sofa, with an episode of the variety show ‘Three Meals a Day’ playing on the TV across the room.
In the scene, a girl in white was making noodles in the kitchen, even her movements in making noodles were elegant and beautiful. The big star Qu Feitai, squatting by the stove, had a dirty face, staring with innocent and pitiful eyes. With post-production special effects, the interaction between the two is very sweet.
This was also a classic scene that had been widely circulated on the internet. Although Qu Feitai’s fans tried to resist, they couldn’t stop the CP fans from emerging like spring bamboo shoots after the rain.
“This young man is not bad, quite handsome.” Granny Zhu couldn’t help but praise.
At first, no one in the Zhu family knew that Ming Jing was on a variety show. Zhou Bao, who loves surfing the internet, discovered it. She thought it was someone with the same name and went to watch it because of Qu Feitai. Unexpectedly, she saw Ming Jing on the show.
It wasn’t a coincidence; it was her!
The Zhu household exploded that night.
Lin Qing tried to call Ming Jing several times, but couldn’t get through.
Ming Jing had said she was going out for a few days and would be back in three to five days, but it had been more than ten days now.
Lin Qing was worried and angry. The girl was so distant from her that she couldn’t control her, but after being out for so long, the least she could do was to report to her family that she was safe.
Did Ming Jing even think about her own grandmother, mother, and sisters from time to time?
No one in her own family knew that she was even on a variety show.
Seeing how happy Granny Zhu, Zhou Bao, Ming Ti, and Ming Chen were watching the show, Lin Qing felt a coldness in her heart.
This girl had no heart from the beginning, she didn’t even bother to pretend.
When Granny Zhu heard that Ming Jing was back, her face lit up, and she looked down to straighten her clothes.
Ming Yi had already rushed out the door with excitement.
Ming Ti and Ming Chen looked at each other, stood up immediately, their faces barely able to contain their happiness.
Zhou Bao jumped up, her face shining, “Is my cousin back?”
Lin Qing glared at the door, and Ming Jing walked in with Ming Yi’s hand. In just over twenty days, she seemed to have grown a little taller, more mature, and more beautiful.
“Sister,” Ming Chen and Ming Ti couldn’t help but pounce on her, “Sister, I missed you so much.”
Ming Chen looked up pitifully, tears twinkling in her eyes.
Ming Ti didn’t say anything, but the emotion in her eyes was strong.
Ming Jing smiled and patted their heads, then walked over to Granny Zhu, “Granny, I’m back.”
Granny Zhu held Ming Jing’s hand, “My good child, it’s good that you’re back.”
Ming Jing touched Granny Zhu’s pulse with her fingers and withdrew her hand without a trace.
“Your mother is very worried about you, she tried calling many times but no one answered. You’re a girl alone outside, she’s afraid that something might happen to you,” Granny Zhu looked at Lin Qing and patted Ming Jing’s hand, “It’s good that you’re back now.”
Ming Jing looked at Lin Qing and asked indifferently, “How have you been lately?”
Lin Qing pursed her lips, “Thanks to you, I’ve been just fine.”
Granny Zhu glared at Lin Qing, the child had just returned; don’t lose your head now.
Lin Qing frowned and asked, “Where have you been all these days? Why did no one answer when I called you? Don’t you remember that you have a home, a grandmother, a mother, and sisters?”
Lin Qing became more and more angry as she spoke, all the expectations turning into disappointment.
Even now, as Ming Jing stood in front of her, she couldn’t see any concern in her eyes.
In Ming Jing’s heart, her own mother was probably no different from Madam Zhou, a nanny.
Ming Jing helped Granny Zhu sit down, “I was living a simple life in Hanshan Temple. There was no signal in the mountains, and I didn’t inform you beforehand. I’m sorry.”
Hanshan Temple?
This Hanshan Temple was very famous, and Lin Qing had heard of it before. As soon as she heard this, her anger grew even more.
“Zhu Mingjing, do you still think you’re a nun? You are now the young lady of the Zhu family, please remember that.”
