Translator: 549690339

It was the second time Zhou Bao had seen Ming Jing in a little over a month.

When she first came back that day, she wore a filthy robe and had a shaved head. Though she had a pretty face, it didn’t catch anyone’s interest.

Today, she was wearing a shoulder-length wig and a white cotton long skirt, making it seem as if she was glowing. She looked unbelievably gentle and beautiful.

As her gaze swept over in a faint manner, Zhou Bao’s legs weakened without saying a word.

“Co… Cousin, you’ve become so much prettier,” Zhou Bao stuttered and squeezed out a sentence, staring at her face with envy.

Ming Jing was much more beautiful than Cousin Zhu Xiangxiang. It was clear that everyone had the same two eyes, one nose, and one mouth, so why did they look so good on her face?

Upon a closer look, Ming Jing was not wearing any makeup, her face was completely natural. Her skin was immaculate and could burst with a touch, and Zhou Bao’s stomach filled with envy.

Ming Jing walked past her towards the upstairs, and Zhou Bao immediately followed: “Cousin, I have something very important to tell you.”

Ming Jing took a glance at her, her eyes were pitch-black and deep like an abyss, filling people with an inexplicable fear.

Zhou Bao shuddered for a moment, but in the end, she mustered the courage to say: “Uncle… Uncle is having an affair, Aunt knows about it now, she’s very sad. You should try to comfort her, and you and Aunt must be strong. Don’t give the mistress any opportunity, even if you divorce, you must protect your property. ”

The young girl’s eyes were filled with pure worry and sincerity.

Ming Jing glanced at her, and this time her eyes softened considerably.

This little girl remained untainted by her mother’s influence, which was a miracle.

“Thank you.” Ming Jing walked past her and went upstairs.

Zhou Bao watched Ming Jing’s retreating figure, wanting to talk more with her, but for some reason, she was a little afraid of her.

Before Zhu Xiangxiang knew her true background, she always thought she was the world’s happiest princess, with loving parents and a wealthy family. All she had to do was study hard and maintain her elegance as the top lady, and she practically didn’t have any worries in life.

In less than three months, everything collapsed.

It was bad enough that she was a fake princess, but at least her foster parents had feelings for her and nothing would change if she continued to be dutiful to them. But now, even her parents’ love was fake.

Her father, whom she had always admired like a mountain, had cheated on her mother.

Zhu Xiangxiang was both angry and sad. As a woman, she could completely understand her mother’s feelings.

“Mom, who is the mistress?” Zhu Xiangxiang calmed herself down, their priority right now was to get rid of the threat.

She Imew very well that she could stay in this house thanks to Lin Qing. If Lin Qing were gone, who would rely on a stepmother to be kind to this fake daughter? That’s just wishful thinking.

Lin Qing would never show any weakness in front of her daughter, so she didn’t shed a tear because tears were useless.

“She’s your father’s secretary, she’s been here for three months, and I saw her at his office today.”

“Only three months? There shouldn’t be much feelings. Mom, don’t worry, maybe Dad is just playing around? He wouldn’t dare to do anything and jeopardize the decades of love you and he shared.”

Lin Qing shook her head with a bitter smile: “You don’t understand men, and that woman is not simple.”

Zhu Xiangxiang clenched her teeth: “Well, then give her a sum of money and have her leave Dad voluntarily.”

“Too naive.”

Lin Qing said: “Leave this to me, don’t let these messy things affect your studies. I promise you that no matter what happens, I will never leave you.”

Zhu Xiangxiang cried and threw herself into Lin Qing’s arms: “Mom, I will always be with you and be your obedient daughter for the rest of my life.” Alter leavmg Lin Qing?s room, Lnu Niangxlang tnougnt aDOut It ana KnocKea on Ming Jing’s door.

Ming Jing opened the door, and Zhu Xiangxiang looked at her with teary eyes:

“Such a big thing happened at home, and you don’t care at all?”

Ming Jing turned away, leaving her with a back view: “The world’s joys and sorrows are not shared, and all the self-righteous pain is just the disturbance of mediocrity.”

Her voice was so calm that it was excessive, like an onlooker standing in the clouds.

Zhu Xiangxiang sneered: “You are really cold-blooded. This is your home, your parents. If they get divorced, will you still have a foothold in this family?”

“I give this sentence to you, I have no attachments and can live anywhere. And you… without the Zhu family, you have nothing.”

Zhu Xiangxiang was resentful: “Are you deliberately taking revenge on us, taking revenge for stealing your identity, taking revenge on my mother for treating you poorly?”

Ming Jing said indifferently: “Are you even worthy?”

Zhu Xiangxiang was choked, and it took her a while to find her voice: “If you still consider yourself part of the Zhu family, don’t be a spectator. All of us are actors in this play, and you are no exception.”

With that, she slammed the door shut and left.

Ming Jing played with the Buddhist beads on her fingertips and said leisurely: “Senior, what would you do if it were you?”O

At seven o’clock, Zhu Wentao came home.

Zhu Wenjie immediately rushed up to tattle, wishing Zhu Wentao would divorce Lin Qing immediately, so she could go out and set off fireworks in celebration.

Zhu Wentao was in a low pressure, he scolded at Zhu Wenjie: “What nonsense are you talking about? Go home now.”

Zhu Wenjie said with grievance: “Brother, I’m doing it for your own good.”

Zhu Wentao couldn’t be bothered to deal with her and waved to the housekeeper: “Let the driver take her home.”

After saying this, he went directly to Granny Zhu’s room to play the dutiful son. Zhu Wenjie stomped her foot in anger, ‘You all just wait.”

That night, the couple slept on the same bed as usual, but with their backs facing each other.

Decades of affection were not enough to withstand a moment of indulgence.

Lin Qing shed a tear in her sleep.

The next day was a Monday, the day when the exam results were posted.

Ming Jing got up and meditated, visited Granny Zhu, and had breakfast before leaving the house. Zhu Xiangxiang was sitting in the car, and when she saw Ming Jing coming out, she coldly told the driver: “Let’s go.”

Ming Jing raised an eyebrow, walked down the hill, and took the bus, then transfered to the subway. It was still early.

When she arrived at school, the scoreboards were crowded with people both inside and outside. Ming Jing glanced at the crowd and headed towards the first-year teaching building.

No one knew who had sharp eyes and saw her, but they immediately pointed at her and said: “That’s Ming Jing.”

In an instant, all eyes flooded towards her like a rising tide..
