Chapter 4: Provocation

As soon as she said that, there were a few soft chuckles.

Le Yao’s expression darkened. She turned around and looked at the beauty who spoke. “In Miss Yang’s eyes, all the goods in this shop are street goods? Then I’ll have to talk to Jue. How can the Nangong Corporation produce street goods?”

This brand was owned by the Nangong Corporation. It was a little ridiculous to say that it was cheap. These clothes were above average, but compared to the high-end clothes of those rich ladies, it was indeed a little inferior.

Yang Tongtong simply wanted to humiliate this woman. She didn’t despise Jue. She instantly felt anxious.

“Also.” Le Yao didn’t give her a chance to speak. “No matter what, I’m in the same household register as Nangong Jue. As long as I don’t agree, no one can replace me. Miss Yang, it’s useless for you to be jealous. Aren’t you angry?”

“You…” Yang Tongtong’s eyes were red. She was about to die of anger.

“Sister.” Han Xueqian hurriedly took a step forward. “Tongtong is just joking with you. You can’t be so aggressive. It’s not good-”

“Han Xueqian.” Le Yao’s expression darkened. “Your mother remarried you to my father, which made you the eldest daughter of the Han family. Your father was unknown in the past. In other words, you’re eating and drinking using my money now. What right do you have to criticize me? Why are you so shameless?”

Han Binglan had been kidnapped by human traffickers when she was two years old. Her biological mother, Cui Na, had racked her brains to find her daughter. In the end, she was killed in a car accident. Her biological father, Han Guosheng, had pretended to grieve for three years before marrying Zhou Yunmeng.

Han Guosheng said that although Zhou Yunmeng was a widow, she had been working hard with her daughter and had taught her especially well. Such a person was worth marrying. Even if his daughter returned in the future, she would definitely treat her well.

For this reason, the Cui family was touched and even helped to organize their wedding. Zhou Yunmeng’s virtuous image was especially good, so all these years, the Cui family had also been helping Han Guosheng. Otherwise, how could a poor boy like him have risen to the rich circle of Xiling City in just a few years?

However, Le Yao was someone who knew the truth. Han Guosheng and Zhou Yunmeng were just fooling everyone.

The two of them had grown up in the same village. When they were in their teens, they had an affair in the haystack at the back of the village. Later, the poor boy, Han Guosheng, wanted to make a name for himself, but it was too difficult for him to work hard alone. He unintentionally saved the eldest daughter of the Cui family, Cui Na, who had gone to the countryside to gather popularity at that time. Then, he started pursuing her.

Later, the eldest daughter of the Cui family married down with a generous dowry and supported Han Guosheng to establish the Han Corporation.

However, Han Guosheng and Zhou Yunmeng had never broken up. She even got pregnant around the same time as Cui Na.

Han Guosheng had been using Cui Na’s money to cheat on her.

Although there was no description in the book, Le Yao had reasons to suspect that Cui Na’s death was related to these two people. Even Han Binglan’s disappearance was probably their doing.

Of course, she had no proof, so she couldn’t do anything to them for the time being.

However, if Han Xueqian wanted to show off in front of her, then she would not hold back. She was not the real Han Binglan. She would not foolishly treat this woman as her elder sister. She was Le Yao – a pro at the art of provocation.
