FSC [QT] Chapter 34.1

“Ah Heng, your sister is tired. Let her rest for a while.”

The plan was successful, but Bai Xinyue felt guilty again as she looked at her slightly weak daughter who was resting with her eyes closed.

“This time, your sister suffers on your behalf. You must remember your sister’s kindness and show mercy to her more in the future.”

Bai Xinyue often played old tricks. Xiao Heng almost rolled her eyes when she heard this familiar sentence.

Again, she was giving in to her younger sister again. They were both sisters with front and back legs. Why should she give in to her? Her mother was too partial.

Xiao Heng never thought that although Bai Xinyue and Xiao Donglai always said these words, all they did was wronging Xiao Wu and indulging their elder sister.

“Okay, didn’t you like Bvlgari’s snake head bracelet? Mom will transfer the money to you later.”

Xiao Heng and Xiao Wu were both college students. Even though their family was well off, Xiao Heng rarely owned jewelry with a unit price of more than six figures. When she heard that her mother was willing to buy her a Bvlgari snake head bracelet, Xiao Heng immediately beamed.

“Thank you, Mom. Mom is the best.”

Xiao Heng looked at Xiao Wu proudly, but Xiao Wu seemed to be asleep with her eyes closed. Her demonstrative look was like throwing it to a blind man.

“Lu Su agreed. She agreed that we would change the candidate for marriage to Ah Wu.”

Bai Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, the cooperation between Xiao and Han families was preserved.

“It’s just that I concealed the true situation of Ah Wu. I don’t know if Lu Su and Han Guoan will investigate. To be on the safe side, it would be safer to destroy Ah Wu’s previous inspection records.”

The Xiao family’s external rhetoric was that Xiao Wu’s body was relatively weak and needed more careful conditioning. No one knew that the Second Young Lady of the Xiao family was actually a medicine jar and might die at any time.

The Han family was generous enough to accept Xiao Wu as their daughter-in-law. However, they might not accept a woman who may die at any time to marry their son.

Therefore, in order for this engagement to continue, Xiao Wu’s true situation must be concealed.

“I know.”

Xiao Donglai had been worried about this matter during the day.

He hoped that the Han family would agree because in this way the cooperation between the Han family and the Xiao family could continue and the beloved eldest daughter could choose a new spouse and marry a healthy man.

On the other hand, Xiao Donglai hoped that the Han family could refuse so that he would not have to feel ashamed of his little daughter.

But now that the Han family agreed, Xiao Donglai could only put away his faint guilt and focus on the engagement between Xiao Wu and Han Yang.

“Be nice to Ah Wu. Buy her whatever clothes and jewelry she likes. Whatever she wants to eat, as long as it’s not taboo, don’t hold her back.”

After much deliberation, Xiao Donglai could only compensate his younger daughter in material terms.

“You don’t need to tell me. Ah Wu is also my daughter. She is not in good health. I have always loved her the most, and for this reason, I have ignored Ah Heng.”

Bai Xinyue said angrily, but thinking about the unkind thing she was doing now, her words were obviously not convincing, so she quickly added a few more words.

“The reason why I asked her to marry Han Yang was not because I was partial to Ah Heng, but because her body was not suitable for marriage. Now it is just right for her to marry Han Yang. She doesn’t have to fulfill the obligations of a wife, and she can still have the Han family as her backer. Moreover, if Ah Heng takes advantage of her this time, she will definitely feel more guilty, and she will be able to take more care of Ah Wu as her younger sister in the future.”

Bai Xinyue kept brainwashing herself for such reasons. As she kept saying it, she believed it herself.
