Ch 287: Daughter of the Republic VS Chinese Opera Singer (11.19)

Du Shu was a little puzzled. Just now, from the time Hai Tang had returned, she’d been continuously weeping. She did not ask, and Hai Tang did not say.

She’d mentioned ShuRong, then hemmed and hawed, then mentioned Xiao Mi.

Then after persistent questioning, she said ShuRong hit her because she saw that Hai Tang was with Xiao Mi, and was afraid she’d tell Xiao Mi about her past.

Du Shu thought that ShuRong and Xiao Mi had a really good relationship, so she could understand this kind of thing happening.

She also didn’t think there was any problem when the previous words were said.

Nian ShuRong was angry, but also found it laughable. What a good pity play.

“Auntie, Mom, do you know how this person cursed MeiMei? Hai Tang, you know how to complain. Why don’t you talk about your conduct and deeds? What? You don’t dare?”

She’d never seen such shamelessness. She was truly gaining knowledge and experience.

Ji Jinwen heard that there were things they did not know, and her expression became bad. “What the hell is going on?”

Nian ShuRong watched as Nian Xue’er’s face became more and more pale, and expressed she was very pleased.

Without missing a word, she told the two people about everything that happened at FuRong Restaurant, putting special emphasis on Hai Tang entering the Nian family while driving XunMi out, as well as her words cursing XunMi.

She was a good elder sister, and bullying her little sister was the same as bullying her.

Ji JinWen didn’t know what to say for a moment, so she directly dragged Nian ShuRong away.

Du Shu, who was left behind, looked at Nian Xue’er with a complicated expression. Anguished, hurt, sad, and disappointed.

“Child, what we owe you, we will return to you. If you want something, we’ll satisfy your desires. But you need to know, Xiao Mi is my daughter, and always has been.”

After she finished speaking, she heartlessly turned around and left, leaving Nian Xue’er some quiet space to think.

Nian Xue’er pulled at her dress with her fingers that were pale and almost transparent, the veins underneath clearly visible.

She clearly knew that Nian Xue’er was her own daughter, yet didn’t treat her well as some fake goods. She didn’t understand.

Her tears flowed down faster and more fiercely, and her heart felt like it was caught by something, making it hard to breathe.

XunMi was not aware of the Female Lead’s situation. At this moment, she was ridiculing this plane’s consciousness with BaoBao.

Looking at the correct script in her hand, she really didn’t know what to say except, what the fuck?

How could there be such a pit for the Host? The Female Lead was reborn. Even if she clearly realized she was reborn, she was still reborn into the lifetime XunMi arrived in.

However, BaoBao, this idiot, threw her in at an earlier date, leading the Female Lead to stupidly think she was still abroad. She didn’t show up immediately, so she didn’t discover something was wrong right away.

But now that she wanted to come, she understood why BaoBao said it was too late.

Weakly lying on the leather sofa, XunMi only felt that life was hopeless.

[Host, BaoBao knows it was wrong, and absolutely will not make this type of mistake the next time.]

BaoBao pulled at its white fur and crouched on the armrest of XunMi’s sofa, in a manner of admitting its errors.

Really, what sort of master had what sort of pet? This skillful way of acknowledging wrongs, it had studied well.

XunMi still couldn’t resist reaching out and pinching BaoBao’s body, and saying between gritted teeth: “When will your IQ be online for once?”

Goddamn, she was increasingly doubting BaoBao’s intelligence. This state of affairs had not been normal since the beginning!

BaoBao felt it had been wronged. It hadn’t been intentional. Who let the world consciousness urgently call out for assistance, and then swindle them like this?

“Wife, I’m back!” As soon as XunMi was about to get up, she was grabbed and pressed down again.

Fortunately, this sofa was very soft, otherwise XunMi would definitely suffer internal injuries.

Ziju BaiLin embraced his wife and incessantly pasted kisses all over her face while his hands moved about.

If they weren’t in the hall, it is estimated this guy would directly stage a forbidden 18+ scene.

XunMi moved her body a little. Okay, she couldn’t move. She simply laid back.

“What happened with the matter I asked you to investigate before?” If she hadn’t met with the Female Lead, she nearly would have forgotten she’d asked her husband to investigate her original body’s matters.

Ziju BaiLin paused for a moment, seemingly thinking.

After a long while, he suddenly realized, “Eh, Wife, didn’t I already tell you? In that year, there was a mistake. The midwife who delivered you for your mother had just become a grandmother herself. Her daughter-in-law had just given birth to her son’s daughter. Abandoned, she ran away, and her son joined the military. That midwife could only bring her own granddaughter with her. Then, who would have imagined, when she was helping your mother give birth, your father was given the wrong baby, and the midwife didn’t notice. Just like this, the midwife never saw her son before she died, and the baby was raised by the leader of the acting troupe next door.”

It was a very simple thing, and there was no shameful secret behind it, nor anything intentional.

“Ah, but Wife, I discovered that your cheap dad seems to have muddled along in positions neither big nor small, and is at this time the commander of the Northeastern Region.”

Originally he just wanted to take a look to see whether or not that man had died, but the result turned out to be that not only had he not died, he was still living, and living very well.

“He later married a wife and had a son.”

XunMi was speechless. She really didn’t know what to say. It was really a dog blood plot, ah.

“I’m exhausted. Quickly get up. I’m hungry.” XunMi pushed the person on top of her, and couldn’t help acting coquettish.

Ziju BaiLin heard that his wife was hungry. How was that acceptable? This became the top priority, and he immediately went to the kitchen to get something for his wife to eat.

Very soon, he came out with a large bowl of plump glutinous rice dumplings.[1] Fortunately, there was always food prepared to eat in the kitchen, else the hungry wife would not be happy.

Sitting in front of his wife, he ladled out a dumpling and brought it to her mouth before blowing on it, and then carefully feeding her.

“Come, Wife, open your mouth.” He looked at his wife expectantly.

XunMi’s felt her cheeks heat up. My husband is really… too… but her heart was beating quickly.

She opened her mouth and bit down on the rice ball in the spoon. The black bean paste flowed down onto her bright red lips. The white coating of the rice ball spun on the tip of her moist tongue, and she watched as Ziju BaiLin’s throat moved.

He suddenly felt that he was a little hungry. The more he fed his wife, the more hungry he got. He couldn’t bear it. He scooped one into his mouth.

After that, one for her, one for him, and they quickly finished off the large bowl of rice balls.

As XunMi softly chewed, she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. She felt that eating handmade glutinous rice balls tasted really great.

Not only did it look white and crystal-clear on the outside, the insides gave one an appetite. This was not to say in any way she resembled glutinous rice balls!

A satisfied XunMi felt her stomach and couldn’t help but sigh. Really refreshing.

Ziju BaiLin put down the bowl and turned around to see the young lady sitting languidly on the sofa, her dress white, and her long hair loosely draped over her shoulders, her appearance incomparable.

Especially those eyes, proud and arrogant, as if they had obtained a treasure. Her half-closed eyes fluidly moved into a curve, appearing particularly affectionate and beautiful.

At that moment, his heart was bewitched again, and he slowly leaned down and kissed the tender pink, diamond-shaped lips.[2]
