Chapter 236: Urgent Matters
Fang Xinxin could not be bothered to listen to her nonsense any longer. She stood up and headed for the second floor.
Earlier, she had worked out in the gym for three hours and was covered in sweat. Her body felt very sticky and she wanted to take a shower desperately.
Fang Lilan glared at her backview and raged. “Xinxin, you are becoming more and more impudent. How dare you leave before I’m done speaking? How much money did your brother give you in total? Where did you find the money to sign up for the gym membership?”
But Fang Xinxin turned around the corner on the second floor without a care in the world. Fang Lilan’s teeth nearly fell out from the way she was grinding them in anger.
“Mom, stop asking.” Fang Manxue understood the fatty’s attitude. “That dumb trash has no intentions of answering you anyway!”
“This is all because you are useless!” Fang Lilan jabbed her finger against her forehead and reprimanded her. “If you had succeeded in seducing Bai Qinghao, would I have to suffer that wench’s arrogance?”
Fang Manxue was similarly frustrated. “Stop blaming me! Aren’t you similarly helpless against her? You were clearly scheming against her, yet you returned with a ‘gift’ of red wine. Does your hand still hurt from that injury?”
“It’s mostly healed.” Fang Lilan finally calmed down a little. But her expression was dark. “My daughter, that fat wench used to be easy to control. Unfortunately, it isn’t easy to deal with her now.”
“Hmph.” Fang Manxue sneered. “Isn’t that because she is taking advantage of Bai Qinghao’s support? Once she leaves Bai Qinghao, she won’t have anything!”
“That is why, you must snatch Bai Qinghao from her.” At the thought of becoming Bai Qinghao’s mother-in-law, Fang Lilan was extremely excited. She could only think of the glory and honor she would receive.
“Isn’t it time for our mid-term examinations soon?” Fang Manxue smiled mockingly.
“Fang Xinxin’s grades have always been poor. She is almost always ranked the last in class. The two of us have set up a bet. Whoever performs worse will have to kneel down in front of the winner in the presence of Bai Qinghao and address the other party as her grandmother! Think about it, Bai Qinghao is such a powerful man. How could he possibly accept a fiancée who addresses someone else as her grandmother? Bai Qinghao’s face would be totally lost!”
“If the Bai family’s elders learn that Fang Xinxin knelt down in front of you and addressed you as an elder, how could they possibly still accept her into the family?” At the thought of this, Fang Lilan became pleased.
“Manxue, you have to perform better than her! Then, the role as the Bai family’s lady will surely become yours!”
Fang Manxue’s expression was arrogant. She was completely unconcerned about the upcoming challenge. “Her grades are really poor, while your daughter is a genius. I’ll definitely crush her under my foot!”
“Still, you can’t lower your guard.” Fang Lilan instructed her. “From tomorrow onwards, you have to go to school everyday. Take your lessons and revise diligently. Put everything else aside. It’s important that you do better than Fang Xinxin.”
“I got it.”
Fang Lilan smirked and the corner of her eyes wrinkled in pleasure. “When Fang Xinxin loses to you and kneels down in front of Bai Qinghao to address you as an elder, I’ll definitely arrange for a reporter to take pictures of the event secretly. I’ll let the entire city know about this. This way, she’ll never be able to lift her head up for the rest of her life!”
On the second floor, Fang Xinxin was about to head downstairs to retrieve something and coincidentally heard her words.
Fang Lilan intended on making it impossible for her to raise her head for the rest of her life?
Very good.
The next morning, at 7.00a.m., the Fang family’s doorbell rang incessantly.
“Manxue, Manxue!” Lou Yuna called Fang Manxue’s name repeatedly. “Quickly come out. I have something urgent to tell you.”
