Dressed as a sickly villain, he seduces the innocent heroine

"Where do I get the money now?"

Chen Cuilan sighed. She had just recently paid off her ex-husband's debts. Although they were divorced, there were still many IOUs...

She wrote it when she was ignorant and believed that her husband could still be saved, so she can only pay it back herself.

Chen Cuilan is a woman who likes to accept her fate.

Even though her marriage was unhappy, she gritted her teeth and endured it because in her mind divorce was not a good thing and rural people always liked to gossip about divorced women.

So no matter how many times she wiped away her tears in bed at night, she endured the pain inflicted by her gambling husband.

In the end, she had no choice but to divorce. She wanted to give her daughter a better environment, not a smoky and chaotic home.

By taking this step, she had already made a great effort, because it was a fight against the environment in which she had lived for most of her life.

But after the divorce, she realized that the sky is high and the world is so vast.

That's why she was able to find a decent job in Haiyue City. After so many years of hard work and effort, she finally paid off the loan and all the money she spent on her daughter's schooling.

Chen Dingchuan's parents had indeed been entrusted by her to help take care of Shen Anxue, which was why Chen Cuilan couldn't make up her mind and cruelly rejected them.

As a servant of the Lin family, she certainly knew why Chen Dingchuan declined rapidly. The fundamental reason was that his financial sponsor, Lin Wanju, no longer liked him.

Now the target has changed to his own daughter.

It really made her feel mixed emotions.

If Shen Anxue hadn't acted so happy and contented, Chen Cuilan would have thought that even if she lost her high-paying job, she would still take her daughter away from this big house.

Anyway, her debt has been paid off, so she doesn't have so many worries.

"Then where are they now?"

Shen Anxue thought for a moment and asked, she liked the eldest lady, but that didn't mean she would abandon her previous cognition.

This is also the part that is most difficult for Lin Wanju to change.

She did not travel through time from the heroine's childhood.

It is not possible to save each other from childhood.

“Outside…”

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Cuilan finally spoke out. Seeing her daughter putting on her coat and about to go out, she reached out and grabbed her.

"You can't go. You know what Miss's temper is like. If she knew you went to meet Chen Dingchuan's parents secretly without her knowledge, she would definitely be angry."

Even the dullest person can sense that something is amiss.

What's more, Chen Cuilan has been working as a maid in the Lin family.

Through gossip from various sources, we also know that the eldest lady is very concerned about the fact that Chen Dingchuan and Shen Anxue were childhood sweethearts.

The kind that makes you so angry that your lungs are about to explode.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, she chose Shen Anxue for this reason in the beginning.

Nothing can make someone more sad than having their childhood sweetheart taken away.

I can only say that the eldest lady's move was indeed vicious.

"It's raining now and they are outside, so do they have an umbrella?"

When Shen Anxue heard her mother say this, she hesitated and felt her heart was torn apart. She had experienced this feeling once before when she was in the high-rise building.

"No…"

"I was going to bring them an umbrella."

Shen Anxue took a step back, her clear and bright eyes trembling slightly.

"Mom, they're not stupid. They don't hold umbrellas because they want to...use a trick to inflict pain on themselves."

Shen Anxue knew where the Lin family kept the black umbrellas, because every time they went out, they saw bodyguards or drivers coming to take them.

The rack for the black umbrellas was also very exquisite. Shen Anxue took out two umbrellas from it and handed them to her mother.

"Won't the young lady be angry if you go to see them privately like this, An Xue... Although you don't want to tell me a lot of things, it's also because you don't want me to worry."

"But I've heard it from other people."

"The young lady's control over you is extraordinary..."

Chen Cuilan felt a little depressed when she said these words. In fact, she should have realized long ago that her daughter's every word and action was manipulated by others.

Even though all this was done voluntarily by my daughter.

But for her, it was as painful as a knife cutting into her heart.

Whether it is voluntary or not, no parent in the world wants to see their child being controlled.

"Mom, I know."

Shen Anxue nodded.

"But simply running away isn't the problem. Can I let them kneel there all day? I want to ignore them, to completely ignore them. That would be too much."

"I can handle your mother."

Chen Cuilan's tone became more hurried, and it seemed that she really wanted to share all this with her daughter.

"Mom, what are you going to do?"

"You owe someone a favor... I don't want you to be gossiped about in the village. You've been hurt so badly by Shen Shuming."

The reason why Shen Anxue did not change her name was because her grandparents were quite good to her, and she could not put all the blame on her father's family just because of her father's evil deeds.

Since her grandparents care about this surname, she will not change it.

But this does not mean that you have to follow other people's wishes.

For example, her grandparents hope that she can get married and start a family as soon as possible, but that is something she can never do.

"I was the cause of this matter, and I will handle it myself."

Shen Anxue's tone was firm and did not allow for rebuttal.

...

The raindrops hit the black umbrella surface, making a crackling sound, as if the raindrops were playing a piano piece.

The entire neighboring mansion was shrouded in rain and fog.

The already cold air in Haiyue City was covered with a layer of sticky mist.

Shen Anxue walked forward step by step with firm steps. Finally, she walked out of the carved gate of the Lin family and saw two people not far away.

The security guard had his hands behind his back, holding a black electric baton in his hand and wearing a blue raincoat. He seemed speechless about the two people who could not be driven away no matter what.

The most important thing is that they were not completely close to the Lin family's territory.

The two men were kneeling, their bodies shivering and wet from the rain, but luckily they were wearing raincoats, so they didn't look so miserable.

"Uncle Chen, Aunt Li, please get up."

Shen Anxue reached out and helped the person up, with some worry in her eyes. He was so old, and who knows what problems might arise if he got caught in the rain.

"An Xue... you finally came out. You must save Dingchuan. He is completely useless now!"

The man spoke with a strong rural accent, which always reminded people of their childhood. However, Shen Anxue didn't say anything.

Her feelings for Chen Dingchuan have faded.

"Are you short of money? If so, I can lend it to you."

Shen Anxue seemed to just want to resolve the matter and then leave.

"No, we don't want your money."

"This is a debt our son owes himself. We have to pay it back ourselves. What's the point of borrowing money from others?"

The man shook his head in refusal.

"But... Dingchuan is going to be like your father, and start drinking every day. It's okay for a man to drink a little, but it's different when he's immersed in a jar of wine!"

"You two had the best relationship when you were little, you must persuade him..."

Seeing Shen Anxue pursed her lips and said nothing.

The man knelt down immediately.

"I beg you, An Xue... We paid a lot of attention to you when you were a child. I hope you can save my son. He only listens to you now..."

"If you don't care about him, he will become a person like your father..."

"I beg you……"

"I beg you……"
