Chapter 356: Chapter 357: Jealousy
Translator: 549690339 |
Lingyue was originally quite beautiful. Even though she saw her own children through rose-coloured glasses, feeling that her twins were perfect in every way, she had to admit, Lingyue was even more beautiful than her two children.
This was one of the reasons she disliked Lingyue.
Her own children were smart and pretty too, but the moment they stood next to Lingyue, they were immediately outshone.
Whenever Lingyue stood with her children, people’s eyes were always fixed on Lingyue, praising her beauty, while giving no mention to her two children.
While her children were smart and clever, Lingyue was even more adept.
Despite coming from a small town, she had topped the school in her entrance exams.
What stepmother could accept that her husband’s former spouse’s child outclasses her own biological children in every aspect?
She couldn’t, which is why she loathed Lingyue, wishing her dead.
How could she willingly foster Lingyue?
Until yesterday night, she had wholeheartedly hoped that the Gu Family would foster Lingyue.
But today, as she followed Ling Fangzhou from the main entrance to the living room, she suddenly hoped that the Gu Family would not adopt Lingyue.
Even if Ling Fangzhou had not argued with her yesternight, had not forced her to take Lingyue back, she would take the initiative to bring Lingyue back herself.
The Gu family was too rich!
She knew that the Gu family were wealthy, but the extent of their wealth exceeded her imagination.
The entire journey from the main gate, with pavilions and terraces, small bridges and flowing water, blooming flowers throughout the yard, had been as beautiful as the imperial garden in TV shows.
Ling Fangzhou earned a monthly salary of over a hundred thousand, and with his annual bonus and project bonus, he earned millions a year.
She always thought she and Ling Fangzhou were wealthy, living an exalted existence, proud and aloof.
But today, having seen the Gu Family’s mansion, she realised that her imagination had been limited by poverty.
This was how the truly wealthy lived.
As beautiful as a castle.
The two-story western-style building that she took pride in was nothing more than economical housing compared to the Gu family’s mansion.
The person she hated most in the world lived in such a beautiful mansion.
Moreover, he wasn’t just living under someone else’s roof!
Judging by Lingyue’s attire and aura, in less than a month, she had undergone a transformative change as if she had ascended.
At that moment, Lingyue sat next to a beautiful young woman, elegant and noble, like a little prince.
Under no circumstances could she let such a family adopt Lingyue.
If an average rich family, or at least a family less affluent than hers, were adopting Lingyue, treating her the way they would a pet, she would be happy for Lingyue to be adopted by others.
But now, Lingyue was being adopted by this opulent family.
And this family was raising Lingyue like a precious little prince, just like their own biological children. How could she be pleased?
Her own biological children hadn’t lived such a good life. Why should Lingyue, a lowborn child, live like this?
Also, a child raised by such a family will undoubtedly be extraordinary and have a limitless future.
Lingyue was already smarter than her children, add to that being adopted by the wealthy Gu family. What astounding qualities will she develop as she grows?
One day, when Lingyue grows up and succeeds, will she seek revenge upon her and her children for the way they have treated her?
If Lingyue was just an ordinary person, protected by Ling Fangzhou, she would not be afraid of Lingyue’s revenge.
But with Lingyue having the backing of this formidable family of wealth, her rise to success in the future could be even more remarkable than Ling Fangzhou’s. When even Ling Fangzhou can’t protect them anymore, will she and her children still have a way to survive?
