At the side, Father Xu and Mother Xu also showed some dissatisfaction on their faces.
If they were to come out dressed like this, how would others view their Xu family in the future?
They thought that they had harshly reprimanded her.
Mother Xu frowned and said, “Yueyue, take Wanwan to change her clothes tonight.”
She let out a long sigh in her heart. Toward this biological daughter, she knew from the start that she had embraced the wrong person. Moreover, living these past few years, Mother Xu’s heart ached and wanted to make it up to her.
However, this child was askew. She did not have the manner of a wealthy young lady at all compared to the well-read, gentle, and well-behaved Yueyue, who had been raised by her since she was young. Her feelings weakened a little.
Xu Yue replied sweetly, “Yes, Mother.”
As she spoke, she was about to hold Xu Wanwan’s hand.
Xu Wanwan laughed mockingly in her heart and directly avoided Xu Yue’s hand. “There’s no need.”
Xu Yue then staggered weakly. If Zhao Zixuan had not grabbed her waist in time, she would have fallen to the ground.
Xu Yue’s eyes immediately turned red. “Sister, why do you hate me so much?”
Father Xu shouted angrily, “This is outrageous!”
What biological daughter? She looked like she was purely here to collect a debt, bringing trouble for others on this joyous day!
Zhao Zixuan also said coldly, “What are you doing?”
He detested Xu Wanwan to the extreme. Others might not know, but Zhao Zixuan did. Xu Wanwan was the biological daughter of the Xu family. In fact, she even had the delusion of being engaged to him.
It was simply wishful thinking. His future wife could only be Yueyue.
Xu Wanwan looked at the harmonious appearance of this family, and the ridicule in her heart intensified.
Why didn’t she leave earlier in her previous life?
What biological parents? She didn’t care about them anymore in this life.
Her gaze then fell on Zhao Zixuan again and felt that it was ridiculous. This was the male protagonist in the book. He had doted on Xu Yue since she was young and wouldn’t marry her—unless she was Xu Yue. He was disdainful of women who came to his doorstep, especially toward a vicious woman like her.
How could she have been blind in her past life? She had no choice but to go to Zhao Zixuan. She had gone to him in all sorts of ways, only to be oppressed. It was probably because she had been bewitched by the aura of the female lead.
She looked at Zhao Zixuan coldly and retorted mercilessly, “None of your business.”
The usual Xu Wanwan would have tried to curry favor with Zhao Zixuan because she liked him. This was the first time she had spoken to him so coldly. Zhao Zixuan looked at her in disbelief and said angrily, “What did you say?”
Xu Wan did not see Zhao Zixuan’s angry expression at all as she was looking at Xu Yue instead. “You like that dress? Then I’ll give it to you. Oh right, you also like the Xu family and like being the little princess of the Xu family. Since that’s the case, then I’ll give them to you.”
Anyway, it was something that she could not keep, so she did not want it.
In her previous life, she had only lived for over twenty years. She did not want to die early, so she might as well leave soon.
“You, what did you say?” Xu Yue’s eyes flashed with a trace of joy as she asked incredulously.
How was that possible?
She had seen with her own eyes how much Xu Wanwan liked the Xu family. On her first day back, she had personally cooked for the entire family. She was usually even more enthusiastic than the servants when it came to serving tea and water. How could she not want it?!
The faces of Xu Wanwan’s parents were ashen as they looked at Xu Wanwan angrily.
Has she gone mad?
Xu Wanwan did not even look at them. “Everyone, please bear witness for me.”
Xu Wanwan’s gaze fell on the faces of the people around her. She smiled faintly and her words carried a sense of relief from the bottom of her heart.
“It’s me, Xu Wanwan, who doesn’t want the Xu family. I don’t want anything.”
After saying that, she walked out of the banquet hall without looking back.
Xu Yue stared at her back and said with tears in her eyes, “Father, Mother, is Sister angry with me? Don’t be angry. I’ll go and persuade her to come back now.”
These words made Father and Mother Xu feel that Xu Yue was much more sensible and obedient than Xu Wanwan, which made them even angrier.
Immediately, Father Xu roared angrily, “Don’t bother about her, tell her to get lost!”
How could he have ever given birth to such a bastard?
You’re throwing a tantrum? If you have the guts, then don’t come back ever again!
–
Twenty minutes later.
“Hu…”
As Xu Wanwan walked on the road, her vision turned black, and she had no choice but to stop.
She had been careless.
She had left the Xu family in one breath, but in the end, she had forgotten that she did not know the way.
She had no choice but to squat down on the spot, hugging her school bag tightly, trying to suppress the discomfort.
However, her body was too weak. The more she sat, the colder it became, and she gradually lost consciousness.
She didn’t know how long it had been, but a pure black car was quickly approaching her. When it was a few meters away from her, the driver suddenly saw that there was someone on the ground. He suddenly stepped on the brakes, and the car stopped with an ear-piercing screech!
Bang!
“What happened?”
Sitting in the back seat, Li Jingran had closed his eyes and was pretending to be asleep. Having been caught off guard, he bumped his head against the back of the front seat. He covered his forehead and said in an unhappy tone.
“Sorry… CEO Li, someone fainted on the road,” the driver replied awkwardly.
Fainted?
Li Jingran pinched the bridge of his nose. His face was slightly cold. He had also just fainted on the way home. What a coincidence.
In order to get close to him, they’re willing to sacrifice a life?
He said coldly, “Bring him up. Let’s go to the hospital.”
The hospital.
Xu Wanwan looked at the snow-white ceiling blankly. As the cold medicine flowed into her body, she tried hard to recall what had happened.
She… fainted?
Did some kind-hearted person send her to the hospital?
“You’re awake?”
Suddenly, a low voice came from the side. Xu Wanwan looked toward the source of the voice and her vision blurred.
The man had a handsome face and deep eyes. There was not a trace of fluctuation in his deep eyes. Leaning lazily against the bed, his limbs were long and slender. Even the simplest shirt and trousers were elegant and high-class. He looked extremely oppressive.
However, Xu Wanwan’s attention was completely attracted by the faint layer of golden light wrapped around his body.
The son of Fate!
This word popped up in her mind, and then she was stunned.
Li Jingran saw the girl in front of him staring at him in a daze. She looked like she was dumbfounded, and he was extremely displeased.
Therefore, in an indifferent manner, he said, “Since you’re awake, leave by yourself.” After saying that, he got up and was about to leave.
Xu Wanwan’s heart skipped a beat, and she grabbed the man’s sleeve.
“Huh?” Li Jingran raised his eyebrows and looked back at her with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
As expected, she had other intentions.
This was the first time Xu Wanwan had done such a thing. She was a little flustered, but she wanted to live even more.
She came up with an idea in a hurry and carefully met the man’s gaze.
“You, do you know me?” Xu Wanwan’s brows were slightly furrowed. Because of this expression, her youthful and cute face looked even more pitiful. “I don’t remember who I am.”
‘Don’t remember who I am?’
Amnesia?
This scamming tactic was too funny.
Li Jingran felt helpless and said in a low voice, “Find a more reliable excuse.”
Xu Wanwan turned a deaf ear and tried her best to look at him with the most innocent and ignorant eyes that then came to a sudden realization. “I know! You’re my older brother!”
“I don’t have a sister as big as you,” Li Jingran said in a low voice.
Xu Wanwan did not care at all. This person in front of her was the son of Fate. The closer he was to her, the luckier she would be, even if it was just to hug his thigh.
Therefore, she immediately put on her best acting skills. She raised her head with tears in her eyes and looked at him pitifully. “Brother, don’t abandon me… I’ll be obedient. I won’t run around anymore.”
Li Jingran pinched the space between his eyebrows and said coldly, “Let go.”
Using the cover of the quilt to pinch her thigh hard, she said with a sobbing tone, “I don’t remember anything. I’m so scared. Brother, do you really not want me anymore? No matter what I’ve done, it’s my fault, okay? Don’t abandon me. I’m scared!”
She was determined to hold on to the other party. She did not hide her crying at all and even admitted her wrongdoings. She kept saying “Brother” to the other party. Anyone who heard her would know that it was her sister who made her brother angry, but her brother would not forgive her.
“I’m really convinced. Why would a man be angry with his sister?”
“That’s right. The little girl cried so miserably. She must have realized her mistake..”
