From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

Chapter 698: 358 Cause and Effect (Part Two)

“Dr. Bo, you’re too kind. These were just simple folk remedies. It’s good to hear that Madam is alright now. Dr. Bo, you’ve had a long day and it’s getting late. Why not stay in the room next door for the night? Tomorrow morning, I’ll have someone send you back to your hotel.”

“If you insist, I shall do as you say.”

Bo Yuxun left the room and saw Zhu Wentao and Zhu Xiangxiang kneeling outside the door, raising an eyebrow at them.

The manager approached respectfully, “Dr. Bo, please follow me.”

Bo Yuxun looked around but did not see the servant named Li Juan, thinking he could try again later.

The manager arranged a room next door, also a suite but slightly smaller than the presidential suite.

“Dr. Bo, if you need anything, just give me a call and I’ll be right there,” the manager handed him a business card with both hands.

Dr. Bo, who came from Jingzhou, had a great reputation and was said to be from a prominent family there.

“Thank you very much.”

After the manager left, Bo Yuxun went to the bathroom for a shower. As hot water ran down his body, the fog began to rise, and images of a woman’s expressions crossed his mind.

Finally, it turned into a pure and indifferent expression of a young girl.

Why would such similar faces exist in the world?

Why did those eyes always give him a familiar feeling?

What secrets lay hidden beneath this mysterious young girl?

──

Seeing Ming Xin and Ming Jing emerge, Lin Qing stood up subconsciously, her expression somewhat bewildered.

“Madam…” Ming Xin began.

“My daughter.” Lin Qing cried out heart-wrenchingly as she threw herself at Ming Xin, sobbing uncontrollably. “My daughter, it’s all my fault. I will never leave you again.”

Lin Qing looked at Ming Jing, who smiled and took her leave.

Ming Chen and Ming Ti witnessed this scene, wiping tears from their eyes, happy that their eldest sister had found her mother.

But where was their mother?

Ming Jing walked up to Ming Chen and Ming Ti and patted their heads.

“Second sister, you won’t leave us, right?” Ming Chen and Ming Ti hugged Ming Jing from left and right, drowsy Ming Yi rubbing his eyes while hanging on Ming Jing like a kangaroo.

“Please don’t leave us, Second sister.”

“Of course, I won’t leave you. But it’s late, and you should go to bed.”

Ming Jing led the three to the adjoining room, and after much effort, they finally fell asleep. It was already early morning.

Many people had a sleepless night tonight, and Ming Jing didn’t want to think about how lively it would be online later.

Leaving the room, Ye Jian said, “Miss, Master Xiao is still waiting for you.”

“Let him go first. Once I settle the matters with the Zhu family, I will return.”

“This…” Ye Jian glanced at Zhu Xiangxiang and Zhu Wentao not far away, bowed in response, and quickly turned to leave.

“Cousin.” Lin Ya came out of the room and said a bit embarrassed, “Grandma and Aunt told me that you’ll always be part of the Zhu family, and I should still call you cousin.”

“You’ve had a long day, too. Cousin, you should get some rest.”

“Indeed. So many things happened today. I still feel like I’m dreaming. Cousin, you should rest early, too.”

Lin Ya didn’t make any more small talk, having realized that her cousin was not a person who enjoyed chatting with others. Talking too much could make people impatient. Of course, her cousin wouldn’t show it, but Lin Ya needed to know when to stop.

As Lin Ya turned to leave, she couldn’t help but sigh when she reached Zhu Xiangxiang. In a kind voice, she advised, “Xiangxiang, just leave. No matter how long you kneel here, Aunt and Grandma won’t forgive you. The trouble you’ve caused this time is far too great.”

“Shut up! Who gave you the right to lecture me?” Zhu Xiangxiang gritted her teeth and spat angrily.

She was hungry and tired, but she couldn’t allow herself to fall.Lin Ya stopped in front of Zhu Xiangxiang, looking down at her and shook her head, “Why don’t you understand? Even if cousin Ming Jing is not the true daughter of the Zhus, it doesn’t change the fact that you’re a fake one. Between you and Ming Jing, who do you think aunt and grandmother would choose?”

“Get lost, don’t talk nonsense here, just get out,” Zhu Xiangxiang cursed.

Lin Ya shook her head with a sigh and left.

Zhu Xiangxiang clenched her fists, and as she raised her head, she saw Ming Jing approaching.

Zhu Xiangxiang’s face froze instantly.

Ming Jing ignored both of them and walked past them from behind.

This kind of disregard was even more unbearable than being slapped in the face.

“Stop,” Zhu Xiangxiang called out to her.

Ming Jing stopped in her tracks, but did not turn around.

The dim light in the corridor flickered uncertainly.

“You must be really pleased deep down that my father and I have fallen into your trap.”

Who would have thought she would turn out to be Ran Tengxiao’s aunt?

Just thinking about it made Zhu Xiangxiang tremble with fear.

“Those who persist in evil will only bring about their own destruction. Take care of yourself in the future.”

Understanding such a stubborn person was beyond Ming Jing, and without bothering to argue, she continued on her way.

Zhu Xiangxiang muttered, “Why is she Ran Bowen’s daughter?”

After falling for Ran Tengxiao, she had asked Zhu Shaodan to help her learn about the Ran family history. Naturally, she was no stranger to Ran Tengxiao’s father, Ran Bowen.

Everything that Ran Tengxiao had now belonged to Ran Bowen.

Just thinking about all of that eventually going to Ming Jing drove her mad with jealousy.

“Father, we’ve completely failed this time.”

“Hmph, you still have the nerve to say that,” Zhu Wentao wished he could strangle her.

Zhu Wentao had knelt for a while, tired, he got up and went to rest.

Zhu Xiangxiang stared at Zhu Wentao’s retreating figure with a gloomy gaze.

Li Juan secretly ran to Zhu Xiangxiang’s side, “Miss Xiangxiang, can you still give me the money you promised?”

Zhu Xiangxiang stared at her, suddenly remembering there was still something she hadn’t done. Even a temporary satisfactory thing would do.

Zhu Xiangxiang said, “Of course.”

“Then transfer the money to me now, and I’ll do it right away.”

Li Juan took out her phone, “I don’t want the house anymore, just convert it into money for me. Here’s the QR code for payment.”

Li Juan opened the VX payment code and displayed it in front of Zhu Xiangxiang.

Zhu Xiangxiang’s mouth twitched, “I’ll send you half first, and the other half after the task is completed.”

“That won’t do, what if you don’t acknowledge the debt afterward?”

“Why don’t you think about who brought you back to the Zhus?” Was she forgetting who helped her and thinking anyone could bully her now?

Li Juan smirked, “Miss Xiangxiang, just because I call you miss, doesn’t mean you’re still the daughter of the Zhus. You’re not even a Zhu anymore. Face reality. I’m willing to help you this one time out of old friendship, but if you don’t trust me, then forget it.”

Li Juan got up to leave, and Zhu Xiangxiang immediately grabbed her, “I agree, but I don’t have that much money on me. In my room at the Zhu’s, there’s a locked box in the wardrobe. The key is in the pocket of a doll on the bed. Inside, there are some jewels, which should be enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life.”

“Since Miss Xiangxiang is so sincere, I’ll help you this one time.”

Zhu Xiangxiang laughed triumphantly, since everyone in the Zhus’ family couldn’t tolerate her, she would make sure nobody got any peace.

Lin Qing, Lin Ya, Zhu Wentao, none of you will get away with this.

As for Ming Jing, she would settle the score with her later.
