Chapter 36: A Prick In The Heart
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Those few girls who were close to Ye Wanwan knew that Wen Ruan had been brought up by Ye Wanwan’s mother and that one day, Ye Wanwan’s mother would be part of the Wen Family!
Ye Wanwan’s mother treated Wen Ruan even better than she treated her own daughter!
Now that they heard about Wanwan and her mother being kicked out of the family, the girls started voicing out injustice on behalf of Ye Wanwan.
“Wen Ruan, when everyone on the forum said that you’re daydreaming and being unrealistic, Wanwan stood on your side and has even offered her notes to you, which people can only dream of getting their hands upon. She’s so nice to you always. How could you chase her and Auntie Liu out of the Wen Family?”
“How can you be so petty? Wanwan had already shared her mother’s love with you but you refuse to split your father’s love with her?”
“I heard that you were literally brought up by Wanwan’s mother. What an ingrate!”
Wen Ruan was not angry and did not even attempt to justify herself when she faced all the criticism. Her long lashes fluttered coldly and she said with a sweet smile, “I don’t have the capability to chase Wanwan out of the Wen Family. Besides, I’ve always been kinder to Sister Wanwan than to myself. Look at the diamond-studded Patek Phillippe watch on Wanwan’s wrist. There are only five of them in Yun City. I got up in wee hours just to queue up at the flagship store to get it for her.”
“Oh, and look at the hair clip on Sister Wanwan’s head. This was the last one left in the mall. I liked it a lot but since Sister Wanwan liked it as well, I gave it to her.”
Wen Ruan’s eyes turned slightly red. “It’s the decision made by the adults. How can I, a child, interfere in it?”
As she said that, she fluttered her lashes gently, looking as though she was reminded of something sad and was about to cry any time. “I think Dad would not have made them leave if Sister Wanwan did not push things too far that night.”
Ye Wanwan’s eyelids twitched and a hint of gloominess flashed past her eyes.
This Wen Ruan was getting more and more difficult to deal with ever since she managed to break free from the control of her and her mother.
The old Wen Ruan would have never refuted her words, no matter what she said. But now, she could easily sway people’s opinions.
The few girls who were standing by Ye Wanwan’s side looked at the latter a little differently.
In the past, Wen Ruan did treat Ye Wanwan well. Did Ye Wanwan really do something bad to cause her and her mom to be chased away?
“Wen Ruan, star student Ye and her mother were forced out of the Wen Family by you.” Ling Fei’er walked over.
She glared at Wen Ruan. “Your father took star student Ye and her mother to our restaurant for supper. I could see that your father loves her mother a lot!”
When Wen Ruan heard the word ‘love’, she felt a prick in her heart.
Liu Shuying was not fit for her father’s love at all!
Wen Ruan blinked and swept a cold glance at Ling Fei’er.
Ling Fei’er shuddered instinctively when she saw that Wen Ruan’s gaze had suddenly turned sharp and icy.
She frowned. How strange! She was actually intimidated by Wen Ruan’s glance?
“Wen Ruan, Ye Wanwan is pretty and kind. She isn’t calculative, stands up for you, and even lent you her notes. Even if you aren’t grateful for all of this, you shouldn’t be trying to sow discord. Are you jealous of her?”
Ling Fei’er’s words made Wen Ruan’s temples pulse. She was speechless for a moment.
Then, she smirked. “I’m jealous of her? Is her skin fairer than mine? Are her features more beautiful than mine? Is her family background better than mine?”
Since they had already reached this state, Wen Ruan could not be bothered to pretend that her relationship with Ye Wanwan was good anymore!
