After leaving the wealthy family, the fake daughter became a sensation around the world

"A beautiful flower stuck in cow dung."

Shen Lu was just muttering to herself, but she ended up saying it aloud.

Sheng Yanran chuckled, and Hong Yiyao's face turned black then red, then red then black again.

He defended himself: "I'm not that bad, am I?"

How did it become cow dung?

"You look alright, but you're still a little bit inferior to my sister Yanran."

"In particular, my first impression of you was very bad."

Shen Lu mentioned first impressions, and Hong Yiyao suddenly felt he couldn't refute it.

Because he met Shen Lu in a particularly disheveled and decadent state.

Ironically, I initially thought she was just another girl trying to climb the social ladder.

Who would have thought she was the future sister-in-law?

This sister-in-law is not someone you should offend.

"It's okay to have a bad first impression, look at me now, I've changed it all."

Hong Yiyao defended himself: "At that time, I thought I had no hope of recovery and would have to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair, so I couldn't figure it out."

"After giving up on yourself for three years, your brain is really dull." Shen Lu mocked without any politeness.

Hong Yiyao didn't dare to complain: "Now that I think about it, I regret it. If I hadn't wasted my time, I could be going to school now."

Even if it's just academic classes?

Since the other person has already done a very thorough self-examination, Shen Lu is not in a position to scold them.

She decided to avoid seeing it and just get rid of it, so she had the acupuncture done and planned to leave.

So as not to be a third wheel here.

Sheng Yanran stopped him: "Lu Lu, could you teach him his rehabilitation massage techniques? I'll massage him when I have time."

Shen Lu couldn't bear to see her older sister suffer like this.

"Sister, you have a lot of strength. If the massage isn't done properly, it won't help your recovery."

"Didn't Hong Yiyao hire a professional rehabilitation doctor?"

"His rehabilitation training is being carried out according to plan, so you don't need to worry about it."

Is that right?

"Alright then." Sheng Yanran hesitated for a moment and then didn't insist.

It's good that she's not involved; Hong Yiyao has no shortage of rehabilitation doctors, so she doesn't need to go through all that trouble.

Although this is a good opportunity to cultivate feelings, she doesn't necessarily need this opportunity.

Shen Lu smiled knowingly when she saw that Sheng Yanran had figured things out.

Exactly, there's absolutely no need to lower yourself like that when you're in a relationship.

Offering help in times of need is a good thing, but adding to someone's already good fortune is optional.

Hong Yiyao, who was listening nearby, also breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't really want Yanran to give him a massage.

He knew his rehabilitation process was painful, and he didn't want Yanran to see it.

As for whether it was to protect his pitiful self-esteem or something else, he couldn't say.

The rehabilitation process is difficult, so it's best not to let Yanran see it.

But he can ask Yanran out to play after each rehabilitation session.

In this way, she became the sweet spot that kept him going through his rehabilitation.

"LuLu, why don't you stay and have dinner with us?"

"Later, Ayao and I are going to check out a popular restaurant."

In order to maintain her figure, Sheng Yanran cannot eat too much.

She'd been wanting to go to this popular restaurant for ages, but hadn't yet.

It was Hong Yiyao who persuaded her that since she usually exercises so much, if she didn't eat a few good meals, she would not only be letting herself down, but also her body.

Sheng Yanran then understood.

I still have to eat. At worst, I'll just have dinner earlier and then practice for two more hours when I get back.

"I'm not going. If I go and become a third wheel, you two won't have any fun."

"I'm having dinner with Lu Xingye, I won't invite Sister Yanran," Shen Lu joked.

Sheng Yanran thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.

However, Shen Lu looked at her again: "Sister Yanran, have the family matters been resolved?"

She's been so busy lately that she doesn't know anything about what's happening at the Sheng family's place.

Did Sheng Yanran's parents get divorced?

Does Xiao Biyu still want to sell her daughter?

"It's temporarily resolved."

Shen Lu noticed the momentary unease on Sheng Yanran's face.

Shen Lu remembered that Hong Yiyao was still there, so she didn't ask any further questions.

After leaving the Hong family, she called Shanshan.

Shanshan took the college entrance examination this year, and the results are out. She did very well and has received an admission letter from a university in Beijing.

However, he hid away as soon as he received the notice.

They didn't stay in the capital.

So much so that even when the Sheng family wanted to hold a celebration for Shan Shan's graduation, they couldn't find anyone to help.

Why do we need to hide?

It's because she's afraid of being caught by her biological mother, Xiao Biyu, and being flaunted around everywhere.

“I’ve gone into hiding. My sister must be suffering. But I heard from my mom that my sister has made something of herself and found a boyfriend with a very powerful background.”

"It's a pity he's a disabled person who uses a wheelchair."

Xiao Biyu's words in front of her son were truly unpleasant.

Shen Lu frowned as she listened.

Xiao Biyu was truly impolite. She had always liked to use her daughter for personal gain, and now she treated her daughter like an enemy.

"Sister Yanran must be very sad to hear that, right?"

Shen Lu doesn't have a mother, but she remembers feeling sad when she was little because she didn't get any attention from Lin Rou.

I figured it out later.

But Sheng Yanran is different. She probably didn't have a particularly bad relationship with her mother growing up. It was only later, when Xiao Biyu's actions became increasingly outrageous, that she gradually became disheartened.

Sheng Yanran may still have hope for maternal love.

It's just that Xiao Biyu didn't want this daughter on her own.

“I shouldn’t have told my sister that.”

"However, it's good that I heard it. Now that I know what kind of person my mother is, I won't bother with her anymore."

My parents are now separated.

"Their divorce is just around the corner."

Shan Shan is already eager for her parents to divorce.

Shen Lu felt that it was already quite remarkable that the Sheng family had tolerated Xiao Biyu for so many years.

Previously, Xiao Biyu had already displeased the eldest branch of the Sheng family by giving Shen Lu the things that her aunt had given to Yanran.

Furthermore, given Xiao Biyu's act of selling her daughter, the first wife's family could no longer tolerate her.

However, the first wife will not interfere in the second wife's marriage.

They will not encourage Sheng Mingqiao to divorce.

But Sheng Mingqiao could no longer tolerate it. He could indulge Xiao Biyu before, but now he could be ruthless.

In short, after separating from Xiao Biyu, Sheng Mingqiao insisted on never seeing her again.

Xiao Biyu initially tried to win back her husband's heart, but later she gave up entirely.

You want a divorce, right?

I won't divorce you!

Not only will I not leave, but I will also use the Sheng family's name to cause trouble outside.

Anyway, there will always be someone who will give her face.

Xiao Biyu has now become addicted to gambling.

The ladies took her to play cards, and the stakes kept rising. Several people were praising her so much that she lost her bearings.

"I reminded my dad after I found out, and he said he knew what he was doing and told me not to interfere."

Shan Shan was still just a child and had no idea that Sheng Mingqiao had ulterior motives when Xiao Biyu refused to divorce her.

You don't want to have a proper divorce, right?

Then don't blame me for resorting to underhanded tactics.

The Sheng family acts with integrity and uprightness, which applies to their fair competitors.

The methods used against those who are not exactly ethical are naturally different.
