Sweet Beauty

Wei Xiaoqing stuffed the apple on a plate into her mouth with a fork. Chewing casually, she asked, "Didn't you go to play mahjong? Why did you come back so early?"

Jiang Huifang gloomily stared at Wei Xiaoqing. Seeing Wei Xiaoqing's eyes focused on the television, she couldn't believe that Wei Xiaoqing hadn't noticed the wound on her face even though she had been in the house for so long. Irritated and feeling wronged, Jiang Huifang brought her face closer to Wei Xiaoqing's face.

Pointing at her own face, Jiang Huifang said, "Look at my face. Just because of you, I had a fight with someone!"

Then Wei Xiaoqing casually looked at Jiang Huifang's swollen face. She couldn't help but laugh. "Mom, what's wrong with your face? Who did you fight with today? Don't tell me you lost too?"

"Who said I lost?! Mui Linlin and Zeng Shuang, they're both little bitches and not my opponents. Let me tell you this, your mother is great. I beat them both until they became steamed buns. Don't look at my face. You haven't seen their faces yet, they are much more pathetic than I am. Maybe they couldn't even go out to see people for a week!"

It wasn't as if Wei Xiaoqing had never seen how shrewd Jiang Huifang was.

She wasn't something that an ordinary woman could defeat.

Listening to Jiang Huifang's ramblings, Wei Xiaoqing glanced at her and interrupted her impatiently. "So ... why did you fight?"

Jiang Huifang thought about it seriously for a moment, and only then did she remember the real reason. "It was because of that bitch Zeng Shuang. She went on a blind date with Liang Jiahao and perhaps he didn't like her, so he did something inexplicable. That bitch went back and complained to her mother, saying extreme things about Liang Jiahao. Of course, I couldn't hear that, so I started fighting."

Wei Xiaoqing raised her hand and rubbed her chin while pondering seriously. "Liang Jiahao went on a blind date?"

Jiang Huifang grabbed Wei Xiaoqing's hand and continued. "You don't even know how bad they scolded you. Saying how many men slept with you, how you were abandoned by Hou Yingyi, how you shamelessly fell off from the top -"

Wei Xiaoqing immediately frowned and shouted in a low voice. "Shut up!"

Jiang Huifang: "..."

How could Jiang Huifang dare to argue with Wei Xiaoqing after being yelled at like that? Jiang Huifang even felt that Wei Xiaoqing was more assertive and tougher than Wei Guowei. Since Wei Guowei had left, their family had been led by Wei Xiaoqing. Everyone in the family had to listen to her and no one dared to say a word of protest or retaliation.

Jiang Huifang closed her mouth in embarrassment and looked at Wei Xiaoqing with wide eyes.

After thinking seriously for a while, Wei Xiaoqing suddenly asked. "Do you know the restaurant where Liang Jiahao and Zeng Shuang met?"

Jiang Huifang thought about it and said uncertainly, "It must have been at the Zen Garden."

Wei Xiaoqing laughed in amusement. "Looks like that damn old woman and Liang Zixuan are looking for a partner for Liang Jiahao. This is great."

Jiang Huifang looked at Wei Xiaoqing dumbfounded. "What's great?"

Wei Xiaoqing picked up her phone from the tea table. With a smile, she sent a WeChat message. "They are done."

Jiang Huifang still did not understand. Seeing Wei Xiaoqing chatting happily with her good friend and how Wei Xiaoqing completely ignored her, Jiang Huifang held Wei Xiaoqing's hand and asked anxiously. "Xiaoqing, tell me, what are you up to?"

"How can you be so stupid?" Wei Xiaoqing sneered. "Think about it carefully. Liang Jiahao doesn't lack anything now, he just needs a girlfriend. If his girlfriend is someone from our side, then won't Liang Jiahao be in our hands in the future? You want any loans? How much do you want? It all can be done with a snap."

Jiang Huifang thought about it seriously. It seemed to make sense.

She obediently sat at the side and watched Wei Xiaoqing chatting with her friend. After Wei Xiaoqing was done, Jiang Huifang quickly asked. "As for the matter of Mui Linlin and Zeng Shuang scolding you, are we really going to swallow it like that?"

Wei Xiaoqing stood up and said indifferently, "Their mouths are so cheap and no one can stop them from saying what they want to say. When everything in my hand is ready and I have a lot of money, Hou Yingyi and I will get married. At that time, you yourself would send an invitation to their house to slap their own faces. What's the point of arguing with them now?"

The more Jiang Huifang thought about it, the more she felt that Wei Xiaoqing had grown up and had a brain. She was no longer the little girl who was always whining and asking for money.

The current Wei Xiaoqing had the bearing of a CEO. She's a strong woman!

Jiang Huifang stood up contentedly and walked up the stairs with Wei Xiaoqing. She was very excited about the big cake Wei Xiaoqing had planned for their family and beamed with pride. "Yes, you're right. When you and Yingyi get married, I'll throw the invitation in their faces! Let's see what else they can say at that time."

Three days later, in the Zen Garden's washroom.

Wei Xiaoqing helped Guo Meixiu straighten the skirt as she reminded her, "Meixiu, remember what I've taught you these past two days. When we get out of here, you will fall at Liang Jiahao's feet. Don't worry, men have soft hearts for beautiful women. As long as you pretend to be pitiful and can get sympathy for him, everything will be fine."

Guo Meixiu was so nervous that she clapped both hands and brought them to her chest, feeling her heart beating like crazy. She swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "Didn't you say that Liang Jiahao is your brother? Why don't you just introduce me to him? Why do we need such scheming?"

The word "scheming" caused a hint of coldness to flash in Wei Xiaoqing's eyes. She slowly raised her head and looked at Guo Meixiu, sneering. "Guo Meixiu, how much prettier do you think you are compared to Zeng Shuang? My brother doesn't even care to look at a woman like her, let alone you! Let me tell you, if we don't do this, you won't even be able to touch his toes. If you don't want to listen to me, then you can scram. I can find someone else!"

Guo Meixiu was Wei Xiaoqing's schoolmate. She wasn't only introverted, but also a little stiff. Wei Xiaoqing felt that Guo Meixiu was easy to control, so she chose Guo Meixiu to seduce Liang Jiahao.

When Wei Xiaoqing sought out Guo Meixiu, she planted the seed in her mind, saying that Liang Jiahao was Liang Zixuan's brother. As long as Guo Meixiu could be Liang Jiahao's girlfriend, she would be Liang Zixuan's sister-in-law.

If she became Liang Zixuan's sister-in-law, then wouldn't she be able to obtain so many resources from the Han Group easily?

For a girl like Guo Meixiu, although her family was alright, she still had to find her own way to become an actress.. Her family didn't have that much money to invest in her, so she could only try through the back door.
