Chapter 84 – She Couldn’t Help But Feel Pity For Herself. How Did She End Up With Such An Evil Mother-In-Law? (3)
On the other end, Jiang YaGe was staring at the portrait of tradition women laid out in front of her. This painting was given to her by Fang JunRong when she first came to the Li’s. Jiang YaGe was very appreciative of it at the time and felt that her adopted mother was truly nice to her. No, she couldn’t call her her adoptive mother anymore.
She never would have thought that it was a counterfeit!
Fang JunRong used a counterfeit painting to trick her for her affection? Or that, she herself was a counterfeit as far as Fang JunRong was concerned? What she gave Zhong Yi was expensive jewelry!
Her eyes reddened. She had already spent the remainder of her money hiring appraisers to appraise the painting. She refused to believe it when the first appraisal result came. She had subsequently hired a few other appraisers and each and every single one of them told her definitely that it was a counterfeit and that it was done within the last five years.
Thinking about the look of disgust that she had received from all the others, her hatred from Fang JunRong started to rise. Why did Fang JunRong have to insult her so?
She wanted to tear the painting that had caused her such pain into pieces, but she also didn’t want to let Fang JunRong get away with it just like that. But the gap between herself and Fang JunRong was too big, plus Fang JunRong was ShiZe’s mother. If she didn’t handle it delicately, it might negatively affect her relationship with ShiZe.
Li ShiZe was the most elite person that Jiang YaGe has ever met in her life, and he happened to be fond of her. Especially after they had inadvertently become a couple, the two of them had been very closed with each other. She already saw Li ShiZe as her husband in her mind, which means Fang JunRong would be her future mother-in-law.
All of a sudden, Jiang YaGe became very torn.
That turned into self-pity shortly. Why did she have to run into such an evil mother-in-law?
“YaGe, what’s the matter?”
Jiang YaGe saw Li WangJin standing in front of her with a look of concern after she had recollected herself. She wiped away her tears and held herself back. “Nothing. Nobody has mistreated me.”
Li WangJin had been having a series of bad luck lately and his company has lost a few big orders. He had swarmed himself and didn’t really have that much time to comfort Jiang YaGe. He loosened his tie and said, “Good. We wouldn’t want anyone to mistreat you.”
Jiang YaGe tried and tried, but she finally couldn’t help herself. Feeling unjust, she said, “Dad, this painting that Mom gave me seems to be a counterfeit.
“Why would she do that to me? Did she hate me from the very beginning?” The more she thought about it, the more unjust she felt and she started crying all over again.
Li WangJin froze and looked over at the painting in question. His voice became louder. “That’s not possible! JunRong isn’t that kind of a person. Must be the appraisers that you have hired. All they want is to trick you for money. You shouldn’t fall for them!
“And why did you have the painting appraised for no reasons? Do you not trust us?” Thinking that his reputation would be ruined should it ever come to light, Li WangJin couldn’t think about anything else and his voice became very severe.
Jiang YaGe was startled by him and was dumbfounded. After she had recollected herself, she felt even more unjust. Why did her adopted father get angry at her? She was the victim here!
But she knew very well that she was only able to be a wealthy girl because of her adopted father. She sniffled and gave him her usual delicate smile. “Yes, I understand. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have misunderstood Mom.”
Even though she had said that, Li WangJin was still worried. With a solemn look, he said, “School is about to start soon. If you have time to goof around, you might as well do some studying at home. Did you say you wanted to pick up piano before? How’s that coming along?
“What about your calligraphy and painting? Maybe I can sign you up to a few classes.”
Perhaps it was precisely because Jiang YaGe has too much free time that she’d be messing around with this. He needed to fill up her schedule so she would stop thinking about all kinds of things. His heart almost popped out of his chest earlier.
Jiang YaGe reacted like she was stuck by lightning. Stuttering, she said, “No, no. That would not be necessary. I need to help ShiZe. I am now his assistant.” She quickly threw out Li ShiZe as her excuse.
Li WangJin was no fool. “Yeah right. You are not a professional. What could you do around him? Make him tea? You’d just distract him! I will hire a few tutors for you tomorrow.”
He was the one who suggested for Jiang YaGe to become Li ShiZe’s assistant and now he was the one who said it was a bad idea.
In the half an hour that followed, Jiang YaGe was bombarded with all sorts of classes. She was very unhappy. Finally, she walked back to her room, dazed. What had just happened? This was all Fang JunRong’s fault!
She happened to see the painting that she had brought back with her and got an idea. There was a very hot show lately that would appraise antiques live on the show. She could go on the show.
When the expert announced that this was a counterfeit, then it would have nothing to do with her. She wasn’t the one who gave it away as a gift; it was Fang JunRong who did that!
She might be a mild-tempered person normally, but she couldn’t just let this go. It’s now time to find justice for herself! Her aunty was right, she shouldn’t be a pushover. She needed to change.
