“To put it bluntly, as things stand, the Second Miss has no sense of shame at all! If we were forced to choose, I prefer Second Miss who wears the cold and distant dead-person persona everyday . ”
Zhong Qianqian turned her attention to Jiang Shuwan, asking, “Mum, she hasn’t found out about anything, has she?”
Jiang Shuwan was scared out of her wits . “That… that can’t be!”
“Then why is she behaving this way all of a sudden?”
“Humph . If she has changed, so be it . Even if she finds out that I’m not her mum, what can she possibly do?” Jiang Shuwan put on a look as if to say that she had nothing to lose .
“If she knows that you’re not her mother, what awaits you may well be imprisonment! You can choose not to become a good mother to her, but if she ever learns the truth, don’t expect me to bail you out!”
The main door was not closed . Zhong Kuijun had a meeting at the administrative office and came home earlier than expected . He had only just entered the house when he heard the three women whispering behind Zhong Nuannuan’s back .
Jiang Shuwen nearly jumped out of her skin . She rubbed her chest and stood up whilst saying, “Oh my god, you scared me . Why are you back so early today?”
“Jiang Shuwan, I’m warning you . You better not let Nuannuan notice that anything is amiss and perform your duty as a mother well . If she notices that anything is wrong, don’t blame me for disregarding our relationship as husband and wife when you’re eventually caught!”
Jiang Shuwan was uncomfortable at getting reprimanded . She also held some fears in her heart . Thus, she explained sheepishly, “I know, I know! I’ve been doing well, haven’t I? I even bought her a 300-thousand-bucks gown today! Just earlier, she swindled me out of 3000 bucks, claiming that she wants to buy a phone . In the end, she kept the money in her purse . ”
“3000? What sort of phone can you buy with 3000? Don’t you know that a low-end S5 model cost more than 5000?”
“She’s only a student . Why does she need such an expensive phone?”
“So, is Qianqian not a student then? Why is Qianqian using an S5 then? She even bought two!”
Zhong Kuijun shoved her finger at Jiang Shuwan’s nose and growled, “I’m warning you, Jiang Shuwan . Nuannuan is my biological daughter! I’ll let bygones be bygones . I won’t blame you for what you’ve done in the past, but since you’ve inherited the money, you should treat her and my daughter well . Don’t put her in unfavorable situations when it comes to petty things like this! I hope during moments when you grow tired of her, you will recall the time she saved Qianqian when she was little .
“This will be the last time! If I find out that you’re deducting Nuannuan’s pocket money again, mark my words, I’ll cut off your brother and his family’s income immediately . ”
Jiang Shuwan and Zhong Qianqian paled . They clammed up sulkily .
After this, Zhong Kuijun turned his attention to Aunty Zhao . “And you! You’re merely a servant in the Zhong family . If you’re a servant, you must behave like one . If I hear any of those words coming out of your mouth again, you can pack up and get lost . ”
After saying this, Zhong Kuijun went upstairs and into his study . With a loud bang, he slammed the door shut .
“Second Miss, someone’s asking for you downstairs . ”
When the sound of Aunty Zhao’s footsteps reached the door, Zhong Nuannuan quickly switched the screen .
“Who?”
“It’s Sir Ning . Master is already downstairs keeping Sir Ning company . ”
“I got it . ”
Upon hearing that the person was Ning Wenhao, Zhong Nuannuan hurried downstairs .

“Nuannuan, First Lieutenant Ning is looking for you . He says that Chi Yang has sent him to hand something over to you . ”
When Ning Wenhao saw Zhong Nuannuan, he immediately stood up and greeted her, “How are you doing, sister-in-law!”
Although Chi Yang was not the one standing in front of her eyes, she was delighted .
“Hello . Why are you here alone? Where’s Chi Yang?”
