Chapter 2: Chapter 2: The Multi-Millionaire
These few WeChat ssages quickly triggered a certain mory inside the original host’s mind.
It turned out that the rotten idea of drugging Shen Jingxiu had been proposed by this person nad Qiao Kexin.
Following this mory, Wenyan discovered that all the original body’s foolish actions over the years couldn’t be separated from Qiao Kexin’s ‘brilliant plans’.
This Qiao Kexin was not any good best friend at all; she was a troublemaker who was jealous of the original body.
Because Qiao Kexin ca from a similar background as the original body, being a wealthy stepdaughter, her life was not easy, so she beca jealous of the original body who was treated well by the Shen Family. She constantly gave the original body terrible advice, wanting to see her be despised by the Shen Family.
Unfortunately, the original body was clueless, without any other friends to remind her, she was always hard by Qiao Kexin, ultimately leading her to her own ruin.
But now… Wenyan sneered, not bothering to tidy things up anymore; she leaned against the headboard and began ssaging Qiao Kexin.
‘No, you took that joke seriously? He’s my elder brother; how could I possibly drug him. Let’s not ntion this matter anymore, it won’t be good for you if my family finds out, understand?’
Wenyan didn’t curse at Qiao Kexin and block her right away because during the search of the original body’s mory, she found out Qiao Kexin had borrowed a lot of money from the original body.
Not just money, she had even ‘borrowed’ the original body’s bags and jewelry, so of which had not been returned to this day.
All this, Wenyan intended to take back when the opportunity arose.
That’s why she was temporarily keeping this plastic friendship.
On the other side of the phone, Qiao Kexin was waiting to watch a good show, but she didn’t expect Wenyan to pull such a move.
She beca anxious and imdiately called.
“Hello, Yanyan. What’s wrong with you? Wasn’t everything already planned out before, how co you suddenly changed your mind? It wasn’t easy to have your mother’s birthday banquet with your elder brother staying over; you might not get such an easy chance to run into him again. I’m doing this for your own good!”
Oh, she was in a hurry now.
Wenyan chuckled, “Kexin, I’m serious. Your stepfather’s birthday is coming up soon, isn’t it? Surely your stepbrother will co back for a reunion. Why don’t you drug him instead? I an this for your own good.”
“You, what are you talking about?” The voice on the other end paused, “Yanyan, why have you suddenly—”
“I won’t talk about it now, my mom is looking for .” Wenyan didn’t bother to talk more with Qiao Kexin and directly found an excuse to hang up the phone.
Qiao Kexin on the other end didn’t dare to call or ssage again when she heard Su Yang was looking for Wenyan.
Because Wenyan was right about one thing she hadn’t ntioned; if the Shen Family found out that it was her, Qiao Kexin, who instigated Wenyan to drug Shen Jingxiu, she definitely wouldn’t end well.
After ending the call, Wenyan imdiately began looking through the chat history between the original body and Qiao Kexin, then followed up by checking their bank transfer history, silently making a note of Qiao Kexin’s account.
Then, Wenyan’s gaze was fiercely drawn to a string of numbers in the asset column on the bank APP.
Tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands, hundreds of thousands—the balance in her bank account was actually more than nine million!
Nearly ten million in wealth!!
The original body was a multi-millionaire! All this was pocket money given by her foster parents; with so much money, why bother fighting with the legitimate daughters over nothing.
It made Wenyan start to think she didn’t want to leave the Shen Family; it seed like her foster parents could drop quite a sum even through the cracks of their fingers.
However, this thought quickly vanished.
She didn’t want to live off her foster parents; she had things she wanted to achieve that she hadn’t accomplished yet!
Before crossing into this book, Wenyan loved acting, but suffered from a lack of money and resources.
She, with a professional background, had signed with an agency during her school years. However, she had her principles and refused to accept any under-the-table deals, so she was shelved by her company even before officially debuting for offending a capital backer.
After enduring five years, she finally reached the end of her contract, but she could only appear in cheap short dramas. After one went viral, she beca a minor internet celebrity, but to make ends et, she still had no say in choosing scripts.
But now, she had money!
Once she had money, many problems could be easily solved, and she no longer had to bend for a small sum!
Exiting the banking APP, Wenyan imdiately started searching the entertainnt industry of this world online.
She wanted to see who the big players in this circle were now, which entertainnt companies were good, and if there were any drama troupes openly recruiting actors.
She searched all night, but at 22 years old, she was still young and full of energy; so when she got up at seven o’clock the next morning, Yanyan was still very spirited.
She even did half an hour of stretching yoga on her bed.
–
Eight o’clock was the Shen Family’s breakfast ti, a rule.
The Shen Family had a total of four sons, one daughter, and one adopted daughter.
Although the original person and the true daughter, Shen Zhirou, each had their own real estate, they both mostly lived here after graduating from university.
The four young masters each had their own careers to attend to and seldom ca back to live.
Just last night, only the eldest son, Shen Jingxiu, had stayed.
When Yanyan ca downstairs, Shen Yuan, Su Yang, and Shen Jingxiu had already taken their seats at the dining table.
But even after Yanyan sat down, the true daughter, Shen Zhirou, had yet to appear.
Years ago, the seat beside Su Yang usually belonged to the original person, but ever since Shen Zhirou returned, it had beco hers.
Today, Shen Zhirou was clearly late, and had it been the original person, she would probably have taken a seat next to Su Yang.
But Yanyan had no intention of competing for favor; she rely greeted everyone and quietly pulled out the chair next to Shen Jingxiu.
Yanyan had not dared to look at Shen Jingxiu properly the night before because she felt guilty; now, looking at him up close, she had to admit, he really did seem very conducive to sleep.
His good looks went without saying; given Shen Yuan and Su Yang’s one-in-a-million appearances, their child’s appearance wouldn’t be far behind.
Shen Jingxiu even combined all the best features of his parents. He had a great physique, broad shoulders, a slim waist, and long legs.
The only flaw was that he was as cold as a block of ice, the kind that even open flas couldn’t lt.
She couldn’t imagine where the original person got the courage to even think of drugging him.
But no matter what, he was her brother in na, and Yanyan harbored no improper thoughts towards him.
And just after she took her seat, her foster father, Shen Yuan, spoke up.
“Let’s eat. After breakfast, Yanyan will ride with
to the company.”
Are we starting the al now? Yanyan was sowhat surprised.
“But Dad, aren’t we waiting for Zhirou?” she asked.
“No need to wait for her,” Su Yang spoke, “Zhirou’s adoptive mother suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized last night, and she rushed to the hospital. She hasn’t co back yet.”
“Oh, I see, Zhirou really has it tough.”
After saying that, Yanyan couldn’t help but reflect internally.
[Mrs. Su even talks so gently, she truly is a good mother. But I wonder if she would think I was being childish if I changed my mind and said I didn’t want to go to the company to work later? After all, it was I who had insisted on joining the company before.]
However, seeing that Shen Yuan had already started eating, and even Jingxiu next to her was quietly drinking his porridge, Yanyan dared not speak.
Because the aura around the father and son was too cold, like two refrigerators.
Yanyan decided to wait until after eating to speak.
She bowed her head to drink her milk, completely unaware that Su Yang, sitting diagonally opposite her, looked incredulous.
Because Su Yang had heard Yanyan’s voice again.
But she clearly saw Yanyan had not moved her lips at all.
