The Duan Rulan followed Siyu into the house. As soon as she stepped into the entryway, she smelled a strong, bitter smell of Chinese medicine. She frowned immediately, and the disgust in her eyes could hardly be concealed.
It was the smell of Chinese medicine again. It was so disgusting. She had had enough of it 20 years ago! She didn't expect that this short-lived good-for-nothing was still alive and had even come to Jiangcheng … The Duan Rulan looked at Siyu's slender back and thought disdainfully. If she hadn't heard that her son had been very close to this good-for-nothing, she wouldn't have wanted to see her daughter again for the rest of her life because she was afraid that Ji Lin would do something wrong. She was also afraid that her current husband would hear the news and come looking for her in such a hurry.
This sickly daughter … was the stain of her Duan Rulan life!
The Duan Rulan's makeup was exquisite. Perhaps it was because she had been pampered for many years that she maintained her looks very well. She looked like she was only in her thirties, but her face still retained the charm of her youth. One could vaguely recognize that she resembled Siyu from her facial features.
It was a pity that when she looked at Siyu, the Duan Rulan's expression was too harsh, causing her face to distort for a moment.
But when Siyu invited her to sit down and talk, the Duan Rulan immediately restrained her expression and sat on the sofa leisurely, once again assuming the demeanor of a noble lady.
"Little Rain, it's been so many years. How have you been?" Just by listening to her voice, the Duan Rulan sounded like a very loving mother. She looked at Siyu and said affectionately, "I know that you must blame me in your heart, but I didn't have a choice at that time. You were still young at that time and didn't understand the situation. Your father passed away, and the family had no support. There were only two elderly people in their seventies and an orphan and a widow left. How were we going to survive? I had to find another way out for your own good. You see, now that my life is better, I came back to look for you, didn't I? "
The Duan Rulan spoke with sincerity, but Siyu only felt that it was funny.
For her own good? She really knew how to flatter herself! In the manga "Superstar Doting Marriage," part of the viciousness and madness of the supporting female lead, Zhou Siyu, came from her family background. Her mother, the Duan Rulan, was a girl from the countryside.... She was originally a factory worker, but the Duan Rulan was born with good looks and was an outstanding beauty at that time, so someone introduced introduced her to Zhou's father and became a full-time housewife.... and she was a full-time housewife......
The supporting female lead's family wasn't rich, but at least they didn't have to worry about food and clothing. However, after Zhou Siyu was born, the family found that she was born weak and sickly. She grew up soaking in medicine from a young age, and the money spent to buy medicine was like running water. The family, which wasn't particularly well-off to begin with, was soon strained. Later, the Duan Rulan had to find a job as a hotel attendant to reduce the family's burden.
In the beginning, the Duan Rulan didn't dislike her biological daughter, but she was very vain. Whether it was coming from the countryside or relying on her beauty to marry into a good family, it was all to make her life better. In the beginning, she still had tender love for Zhou Siyu, but when she found out that the family's savings had disappeared to buy medicine for her daughter, not only could it no longer guarantee her usual large expenses, but she also had to work hard every day to subsidize the family's expenses, this woman who always had to maintain a beautiful appearance resented her.
She resented this medicine bottle of daughter, resented her husband for putting his daughter first and ignoring her. She also resented the family she married into for not being rich enough. She felt that her life could end at a glance. With such a burden in the family, what good could come of it?
She had married to live a better life. Did she want her to lose the rest of her life? No way!
At that time, Ji Lin's father, Ji Wenhan, came to discuss business and stayed at the hotel where the Duan Rulan worked. The Duan Rulan was outstanding beauty, and after a few rounds, the two of them hooked up. The Duan Rulan even got pregnant. After Zhou Siyu's father passed away, the Duan Rulan decisively abandoned her family and ran to Jiang City with Ji Wenhan. After giving birth to her son, she successfully became Mrs. Ji.
The Duan Rulan got her wish to become a rich wife, but Zhou Siyu's grandfather was so angry that he fell ill and passed away, leaving Zhou Siyu and her grandmother to rely on each other. The Duan Rulan said that she left for her daughter, but nearly 20 years had passed. Had the Duan Rulan ever thought that she had a biological daughter?
No! She was so happy as a rich wife that she didn't want to think about home. She couldn't wait to bury her previous marriage in the ground.
Therefore, Siyu treated the Duan Rulan's words as nonsense. She smiled and said, "What are you talking about? I didn't have a mother when I was young. How could I have another mother?"
As an author, Siyu didn't think much of it, but when she faced the Duan Rulan, she felt disgusted. How could such a person be worthy of being a mother?
The Duan Rulan was very strong-willed. She didn't mind Siyu's words. She looked at Siyu as if she was looking at a naughty child and continued to persuade her, "Little Rain, I know you're angry. Mother is here to make it up to you …"
"Don't. I don't plan to acknowledge a mother casually, and I don't need any compensation." Siyu interrupted her. "Madam, I don't understand what you're talking about. I'm afraid you've found the wrong person. Take care."
Si Yu wasn't the least bit courteous towards this kind of person. However, she felt that it was a pity that Duan Ru Lan's luck was still good. After all, in the manga, Duan Ru Lan was Ji Lin's biological mother. After the second female lead's crazy revenge, Duan Ru Lan still stood on the side of justice, placing righteousness before family and enjoying a lifetime of glory.
Siyu thought self-deprecatingly that she had made the second female lead's life so miserable. In the end, she really suffered retribution. She transmigrated into Zhou Siyu and accepted everything that belonged to the second female lead.
However, the difference between her and Zhou Siyu was that she didn't care about the Duan Rulan's attitude, and she didn't have any thoughts of taking revenge on the Ji family. She just wanted to live her life peacefully. Therefore, no matter what the Duan Rulan said, Siyu didn't want to pay attention to it.
"It's almost time for me to take my medicine. Madam, my body isn't very good. If I get agitated, I might faint. I don't think you want to bear the medical expenses, right?" Siyu's eyes turned cold. She pointed to the door. "I'm a little dizzy, so I won't see you out."
"You … How can you say that to Mother!" Duan Ru Lan probably didn't expect that she would encounter such a tough nut to crack. She had prepared a lot of excuses before, but they were all blocked by Si Yu. She suddenly felt a burst of suffocation in her chest.
At this point, the Duan Rulan couldn't keep up her loving facade anymore. She had already reached her limit by speaking nicely to her annoying daughter for so long. Therefore, the Duan Rulan forced a smile and said, "Calm down. Mother will come to see you next time." Then, she hurriedly left. However, no matter how one looked at her back, it was obvious that she was flustered and exasperated.
After Siyu watched the Duan Rulan leave, the expression on her face slowly became serious.
Her biological mother suddenly appeared. She must have panicked because she knew that Ji Lin was trying to get close to her.
After all, 'abandoning her husband and son and eloping to marry another man' wasn't a good reputation. If this was exposed, the Duan Rulan's reputation would be ruined in the upper-class society. She valued her reputation so much. How could she allow this to happen?
Therefore, the Duan Rulan came this time for two reasons. First, she wanted to use the family card to shut her daughter up. Second … Siyu sneered. She was probably trying to force her to leave Jiangcheng and go back to her hometown. Only when she wasn't in Jiangcheng would the Duan Rulan feel at ease.
If she guessed correctly, the Duan Rulan came prepared today. She might have even wanted to use money to send her away. Unfortunately, she didn't give her any face, so she couldn't continue.
Siyu didn't take this matter to heart. After all, she didn't want to follow the path of the supporting female lead. She also didn't want to take revenge on the Duan Rulan and the Ji Family. The Duan Rulan would know how to retreat after a few more setbacks.
At first, Siyu thought so. However, she underestimated the Duan Rulan's hatred for her. As the Madam of the Ji Family, the Duan Rulan immediately found another method to bribe her.
Less than a week later, Siyu suddenly received a notice from the modeling agency saying that she had breached the contract. They wanted her to pay 20 million yuan for breaching the contract and leave immediately.
