Chapter 20 - You are a Vixen are Just Like Your Mother

Out of nowhere, an iron-like arm wrapped around my waist, and Fu Hansheng’s unique scent entered my nostrils.

I was so shocked I’d forgotten how I got into the car with him.

He stared straight ahead without blinking. The side of his gloomy face remained tense, and I could tell that he was in a terrible mood.

“Um… isn’t Su Li pregnant with your child?”

It took me a moment to ask.

After asking, I realized I’d made a mistake.

“Shouldn’t you be happy? That’s what you’ve been hoping for.”

“Don’t think that everyone is as petty as you. I’ve never bothered about your private life. Even if you really have a child, I can still accept it magnanimously.”

“I heard that childbirth is excruciating. I have to thank you for saving me the trouble.”

With that, Fu Hansheng’s face darkened even more.

He stepped hard on the accelerator till the engine was booming. I was terrified that I would fly straight into heaven while riding in his car.

Fu Hansheng sent me to school and left. I watched as the luxurious car drove further and further away before I turned around and headed to my department building.

I didn’t have any classes this week.

Psychological research was an unpopular course at my university, which emphasized scientific and engineering research. Therefore, few people chose my course.

As a result, I have plenty of free time.

Not until I received a call from Jiang Yu. My good mood instantly froze.

“Sis, let me inform you that my boyfriend and I will hold an engagement ceremony at the Royal Hotel this Saturday night. Please remember to come.”

Jiang Yu spoke anxiously.

I could actually hear something else in her tone.

Did she seem a little impatient?

“Don’t call me sister. I find it disgusting,” I sneered.

“You’ve only been back for a few days, and you’re already getting engaged. Jiang Yu, your foxy charm is just like your mother’s.”

There was a moment of silence.

In that instant, I seemed to hear my dad’s furious voice coming from the receiver.

“Jiang Ran, you’re a university teacher, after all. Can you not be so vulgar?! Little Yu is your biological sister. If you insult her, it’s equivalent to insulting me!”

I didn’t expect Jiang Yu to turn on the speaker.

She did it on purpose.

“Sis, I hope to receive your blessings.”

Jiang Yu sounded so aggrieved that my lungs were about to explode from rage.

“Biological sister? My mom couldn’t have given birth to such an ‘outstanding’ daughter. Dad, please take care of your health. How could I insult you? I’m still waiting for you to give us a younger brother.”

“Jiang Ran!”

“Isn’t it just an engagement ceremony? I’ll go.”

After hurling those words at them, I hung up the call without thinking.

If Jiang Yu wanted to make a move against me, I would react accordingly.

Let’s see what she could do.

…

Early on Saturday morning, I first went to the beauty salon to style my hair. Then, I went shopping with Qiao Qiao in the afternoon.

My extravagance surprised Qiao Qiao on that day. Usually, I paid little attention to brands. However, on that day, I didn’t even blink when I paid for luxury brands with my credit card.

“Jiang Ran, tell me the truth. Are you going to divorce Fu Hansheng? Divide your assets equally?”

By then, I was already wearing a rose-red gown.

“Stop cursing me.”

I looked at myself in the mirror and realized that the dress seemed to have been tailor-made for me. It perfectly displayed my graceful figure.

The spaghetti straps and low V-neck design accentuated my shoulders and collarbones. It also revealed a faint cleavage.

I wore the 10 cm high heels and crossed a leg to one side. As I swayed, my pair of snow-white long legs seemed like they could blind one’s eyes.

Qiao Qiao looked at me and clicked her tongue. She puffed her chest out and teased me, “Then you must be planning to seduce Fu Hansheng. Otherwise, why would you wear such a grand dress?”

I threw down the black card that Fu Hansheng had given me earlier on and said to the salesperson in a domineering manner, “I want everything that I tried just now.”

Then I turned my head again to Qiao Qiao. “I’m in a good mood today. You can buy whatever you want. This card has no limits.”

Qiao Qiao was like a money-grubber. She immediately pinched the card and flattered me pretentiously.

“Please excuse me then.. Although, since it’s your show of kindness, I won’t reject it!”
