Chapter 38 - The Female Lead Arrives (1)
It was the day Su Xiaofei had been anticipating. The day when everyone\'s lives would take a turning point that would forever change their lives. She wanted to convince herself that she was ready for this meeting and confrontation she would face with Ye Mingyu and her mother.
In her past life, this was the start of her downturn, losing the most important people to her one after another. She could only hope that Yun Qingrong would be able to brace the shock and humiliation she would receive today, as Su Xiaofei needed to exploit her mother\'s weakness for her to be able to step forward to protect the two of them.
She certainly cannot allow Ye Xing to convince her mother to accept Ye Mingyu as part of the Su family. In her past life, not only did Yun Qingrong accept Ye Mingyu in their own home, but willingly turned a blind eye to her husband\'s infidelity and betrayal when he embezzled the company\'s money in order to give Ye Xing proper treatment for her illness.
Su Haoran, such a shameless scum. Not only did he cheat on Yun Qingrong, but he also used her money to give his lover and illegitimate child better living arrangements. After he begged for Yun Qingrong\'s forgiveness, he had then taken advantage of her inability to conceive a child to force her to allow him to spoil his real daughter.
Yun Qingrong, although felt that she was wronged, could only lower her head and accept the shame her husband brought not only to her, but to their household. If it wasn\'t for Aunty Liu, Su Xiaofei would have no idea what had happened to their home during her absence.
Had she not thrown a fit after her heated argument with Mo Yuchen in the hospital, Yun Qingrong wouldn\'t have to face those two on her own. If she was there, Su Xiaofei knew, with her wicked and vicious personality in the past, she certainly wouldn\'t allow Ye Mingyu to live with them.
Because Su Xiaofei couldn\'t stand that she was being forced to accept this new \'older sister\' who arrived out of the blue, she had refused to live in the same house with Ye Mingyu and chose to live in her own apartment. She was so mad that she had refused to accept her mother\'s call and hear her explanation.
In Su Xiaofei\'s eyes, Su Haoran was such a disgusting person, while Yun Qingrong was a cowardly one.
Her departure had only caused more strain on her already complicated relationship with Yun Qingrong. Su Xiaofei had blamed her mother in the past, telling Yun Qingrong that she had been a coward and a fool for allowing another woman\'s child to live under her own roof.
Such mean words that she had thrown right at her adoptive mother\'s face, breaking Yun Qingrong\'s heart in the process. Not only did her husband turn his back on her, the child that she took in and cared to love came to despise her as well.
It only made Yun Qingrong more depressed than she already was. She had blamed herself for the shame her husband committed, admitted that her family\'s views towards her marriage had been true all this time, and although she loved Su Xiaofei dearly, her child refused to see her since Ye Mingyu\'s arrival in their lives.
A few months later, Ye Mingyu would meet Mo Yuchen through her and would be able to win his heart, making Su Xiaofei angry.
\'Would I be able to change the tide in my favor?\' Su Xiaofei questioned herself. She glanced at the time and wondered why waiting felt like an eternity for those who wait.
Not only did she expect Ye Mingyu and Ye Xing to appear today, but she was also expecting to meet Master Ouyang and Yun Xiang this afternoon, right after her meeting with the mother and daughter pair.
It was vital that these two men witness the grievances she and Yun Qingrong would receive today. Through them, Su Xiaofei expected that Master Ouyang, or better yet Yun Xiang, would report their situation to the head of the Yun family. She wanted to see how the Old Master Yun would react had he known that his only daughter was being bullied by Su Haoran and his mistress.
Su Xiaofei\'s expression darkened at the thought. She hoped that there wouldn\'t be any hiccups along the way, as she didn\'t want to make another mistake this time.
She stood up and washed her face clean before checking the wound on her side. It was healing well and the medicines Han Zijun prescribed were quite effective, which also lessened the discomfort she felt from it. She then changed her clothes into a casual, but an expensive dress, making sure that people wouldn\'t be able to easily ignore her presence.
Su Xiaofei wanted to gauge Ye Mingyu\'s reaction this time. She didn\'t know why, but she felt that something was off about Ye Mingyu, and she was becoming more suspicious of her. Meeting Master Ouyang and gaining his favor might be a coincidence, but Su Xiaofei couldn\'t overlook the fact that the poison that was meant to kill the old man was the same one that killed her in her past life.
In both scenarios, the common denominator was none other than Ye Mingyu. Su Xiaofei couldn\'t help but wonder how Ye Mingyu pulled such a scheme. Was someone helping her, or did she know something that anyone else wasn\'t aware of? It was as if Ye Mingyu knew who she should get acquainted with and how to utilize their connections in her favor, ruining Su Xiaofei\'s reputation in the process.
Su Xiaofei\'s thoughts were forced into a halt when she heard the front gate of their residence being opened. She sighed to herself and decided to wait and see how the play would unfold in front of everyone.. Now that the female lead was here, it was only proper to give her a warm welcome.
