Ying Lu Wei was her sister-in-law. How could she just leave her in the lurch?
Didn't she hire a therapist to cook for her?
Why couldn't her biological daughter understand her better? Why did she have to hurt her instead?
"Madam, please calm down." The butler paused for a moment before comforting her. "Perhaps Miss Ying is in her rebellious phase."
"Rebellious phase?" Zhong Manhua laughed out of anger. "When has she ever followed my wishes? She's so insensible. Now she's even ignoring me. Does she not want to acknowledge me anymore? "
She was furious at the mention of this.
After teaching her for so long, she couldn't learn how to play the piano, couldn't write, and even stuttered when speaking English. She didn't look like a socialite at all.
The more Zhong Manhua thought about it, the angrier she got. "When Moyuan brought her home a year ago, I thought she was very obedient. Who knew that she would do such a thing?"
Family Ying was utterly disgraced!
Now she was seducing Fu Yunshen.
Who was Fu Yunshen?
He was a well-known playboy in Hu City. He couldn't do anything except for his face.
When the time came, he would be sold off and count the money for others.
The butler didn't know what to say. He could only remind her, "Madam, it's half past ten. Miss Ying is still waiting for your call."
Looking at the sad and angry Zhong Manhua, he shook his head and sighed.
Family Ying's Miss Ying wasn't Mrs. Ying's biological daughter. She was adopted.
But an adopted one was still more caring than a biological one.
Fortunately, Old Master and Old Madam were reasonable and announced that Miss Ying was only an adopted daughter. Otherwise, if the other three noble families knew the truth, they would definitely mock her.
He had been in Family Ying for more than 20 years and had served Old Master Ying and Old Lady Ying. He knew a little about what happened back then.
Fifteen years ago, Family Ying had a big business deal that involved the capital. Everyone in the company was so busy that they didn't sleep for several days and nights. Fortunately, they signed the contract in the end.
On the day they signed the bill, Ying Zhenting and Zhong Manhua went out to socialize. When they came back that night, they found that the baby was missing from the cradle.
There was no trace of him at all. It was as if he had disappeared into thin air.
The housekeeper was also puzzled. He had only gone to the kitchen for a few minutes. How could something like this happen?
The baby wasn't even a year old, so it couldn't have run out on its own.
Family Ying mobilized a lot of people to look for her, but to no avail.
Zhong Manhua broke down at that time and almost went crazy. During that time, she was in a trance. When she saw other babies on the street, she would rush over to hug them and cry.
Ying Zhenting couldn't bear to see his wife like this, so he had to think of a way to adopt a child.
This child was very similar to the little daughter they had lost. She was less than a year old and had not developed at all. If one did not personally raise her day by day, one would not be able to tell the difference.
A few months later, Zhong Manhua's mental state finally stabilized. Later, when she found out about Ying Zhenting's actions, she did not blame him.
During this time, her motherly love was also transferred to this adopted child. She took good care of her every day, and the more she looked at her, the more she liked her.
Of course, Ying Zhenting still sent people to look for the missing baby in secret. However, after two years of searching, they still couldn't find her. Over time, they gave up.
Wealthy families never lacked descendants, and they had a lot of illegitimate children.
Ying Zhenting suppressed this matter, and warned those who knew about it not to reveal a single word about it.
After all, Family Ying was one of the four wealthy families in Hu City. Every move they made was crucial. If this kind of scandal was publicized, it would cause a lot of turmoil.
Therefore, other than the housekeeper and a few other people, even the young master of Family Ying didn't know that his biological sister was missing.
After more than ten years, everyone gradually forgot about this matter.
The housekeeper also knew what Zhong Manhua was worried about. Her family was harmonious, and she had a pair of outstanding children. She was an elegant lady in front of everyone and was envied by everyone.
In the end, the real daughter was suddenly found. This should have been a cause for celebration, but the real daughter was from the countryside. She did not know etiquette and could not do anything. She even did some embarrassing things. She really did not deserve to be the young lady of Family Ying.
However, the blood of Family Ying could not be left outside, even if it was a stain on their reputation. Therefore, in the end, they adopted her and brought her back.
Whether it was Ying Zhenting or Zhong Manhua, they did not think that there was anything wrong. After all, the second daughter was not as good as the first daughter.
Family Ying in Hu City was not comparable to a small county. It was the real daughter's fortune to be able to step into the upper class. She should not be greedy.
"Look at my memory, how could I forget such an important thing?" Zhong Manhua rubbed her temples. She picked up her phone and dialed a number. When she heard the voice on the other end, she immediately smiled. "Hello, Xiao Xuan. It's Mom. How are you today?"
"Good, good, good. That's good. You can focus on your studies in Continent O. If you need anything, just tell Mom. Mom doesn't mind the trouble …"

In the room.
Ying Zijin looked at the old desktop computer on the table. Her fingers casually tapped on the keyboard a few times. The screen froze. "Tsk …"
Although she had never touched a computer, she knew that this was the worst product.
She did not look at it anymore. She lowered her head and took out a bank card from Qingshui County from the wallet in the drawer. She calculated.
Five hundred sixty-two dollars and eight cents.
It was a little little, but it was just enough.
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes. With a push of her hand, she flipped over and jumped down from the nine-meter-high third floor. She landed lightly on the ground and left the Family Ying Mansion from the right.
The housekeeper, who was closing the window, caught a glimpse of the girl's figure. However, when he looked again, he could not see anything.
The housekeeper rubbed his eyes and said to himself suspiciously, "Maybe I saw wrongly."
Sure enough, his eyes were playing tricks on him. He actually thought that the Second Miss had sneaked out.
The housekeeper shook his head. After closing the door and windows, he went to the kitchen to prepare some warm milk for Zhong Manhua before bed.

Because of Fu Yunshen's interruption, Nie Chao did not tell her the exact location of the underground market.
However, for Ying Zijin, as long as she knew the name of a place, she could calculate the location.
She looked at the crooked letters hanging on the door — HERMIT. Her gaze froze for a moment. Then, she put on her mask and walked in.
The underground market was even more chaotic than Hu City at night. It was brightly lit and filled with debauchery.
This was an area that even the Four Great Clans could not control. The people who came in would more or less hide their identities.
The girl's entry did not attract the attention of others. A gaze came from behind and fell on her. It was a little more interesting.
In Starry Sky Bar, the bartender behind the counter noticed the man's abnormality. He looked up and asked, "What are you looking at?"
