Chapter 3: That Unfortunate Mouth

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Xibei was silent for a long moment. Then, he said, “You…”

As the word left his lips, he realized how dumb his question was and stopped. If Baby Rong was in the country, Rong Yan was here to stay.

“Did you know Rong Weiwei was awarded the Golden Eagle’s Most Popular Actress?” Lin Xibei paused for a moment. “I heard Chairman Rong and the wife were overjoyed and spent a million bucks on the celebration party. Even the Shi family was impressed. I predict there’ll be auspicious news about her and Shi Mufeng soon.”

Rong Weiwei and Shi Mufeng were names Rong Yan had not heard in a long time. Their names made her zone out for a moment. She snapped out of it soon enough and replied, “Don’t tell me you want me to pass them a red packet? No, I don’t want their money but I’ll take a life.”

Rong Yan was being annoying—Lin Xibei almost wanted to puke blood. “I’m reminding you to be careful. If your sister knows you’re back in the country, who knows what she’ll pull? Previously, she dragged you down by burdening you with a family. This time, she might swallow you alive!”

Rong Yan thought about entertaining him but there were people heading in her direction. She quickly spoke into the phone, “There’re people, can’t talk. I’ll call you again.”

“I’m not done here. Demon Rong! Don’t you dare hang up! I—”

“That’s all. I’ll call you again.”

“Don’t! Hey!”

Rong Yan decisively ended the call and kept her phone into her bag as she prepared to leave.

When she raised her head, she realized she had run head first into a group of people.

Shi Mufeng walked among a crowd of pot-bellied men like a crane among chickens. The expensive suit he wore fitted his tall stature. Compared to the balding middle-aged men, Shi Mufeng stood out like a radiant light. Beside him, Rong Weiwei wore the latest dress on the market from the season’s limited edition collection. She exuded the aura of a lady from the upper crust, her arm intertwined with Shi Mufeng’s as if worried others would overlook their relationship.

Rong Yan made a constipated expression.

F*ck.

Lin Xibei jinxed it. That unfortunate mouth.

She had just hung up the call and here she was, faced with Rong Weiwei and Shi Mufeng. An inevitable clash between enemies?

To think that Rong Weiwei was once Jiang Weiwei, the daughter of Rong Yan’s mother’s friend who died in a car accident.

At the age of ten, Weiwei joined the Rong family and became Rong Yan’s sister.

Since the beginning, Rong Yan’s mother had always reminded her to take care of Rong Weiwei as the girl was new in the city.

Rong Yan obeyed her mother’s wishes and looked out for Rong Weiwei like an idiot. She even introduced the girl to her own circle of friends and her boyfriend.

In the end, Rong Weiwei had walked all over Rong Yan’s good intentions to get into the entertainment industry. After milking every drop of benefit, Rong Weiwei had seduced Rong Yan’s first boyfriend, Shi Mufeng. Rong Yan had stumbled upon their passionate make out session as per Rong Weiwei’s plan.

After that, Rong Weiwei went a step further and drugged Rong Yan.

Under the influence of the drug, Rong Yan accidentally had sex with Li Shengxiao. Reporters caught wind of her visiting the hospital and rumors spread like wildfire.

Then, Rong Weiwei accused her of pushing their grandmother down the stairs and the false accusation led to her banishment. Rong Yan’s reputation was thoroughly soiled.

The funniest part was Rong Yan’s birth mother was on Rong Weiwei’s side despite Rong Yan’s efforts in explaining the truth. The whole ordeal got Rong Yan thrown out of the country like she was trash.

In contrast, Rong Weiwei enjoyed her life in the Rong family after Rong Yan’s departure. Rong Weiwei took Rong Yan’s place and used the Rong family’s resources to attain success in the entertainment industry. She basked in the limelight and even stole Rong Yan’s ex-boyfriend, Shi Mufeng…
