Chapter 1202: Begin Your Performance(10)
As expected, when Huang Ying saw the intimate interaction between Xu Cheng and Lina, her expression changed. Xu Cheng was not a child who was able to hide her emotions well. Therefore, the smile on her face was genuine.
Huang Ying’s heart tightened as she watched her biological daughter acting like a filial daughter to another woman. Although she had prepared herself, she still could not endure seeing this scene.
“Remember what I told you. You must endure it!” Eric reminded Huang Ying in a low voice. In his heart, he was yelling at the moron, Xu Cheng.
It seems like the idiot, Xu Cheng, had been blinded by Lina’s money. Normally, when someone encountered a situation such as this, shouldn’t that person be closer to their adopted mother?
Xu Cheng sure had it well. Ever since she walked out of the elevator, she had been intimately holding Lina’s arm. Even Lina saw Huang Ying, yet Xu Cheng did not look in Huang Ying’s direction at all. Her entire heart was set on sucking up to Lina.
This moronic woman!
After all of this ended and he got control of everything, he would definitely humiliate her greatly, or else it will be very hard for him to relieve the annoyance and disgust he felt in his heart!
It wasn’t until they walked into the lobby area that Xu Cheng saw the upset Huang Ying, and she casually called Huang Ying “mom.”
This clear distinction in treatment created a huge pain in Huang Ying’s heart.
Xu Cheng supported Lina to the seat across from Huang Ying. She only sat next to Huang Ying after Eric’s reminder.
At this time, Huangying also felt very bad. She did not think that there would be such a significant change in Xu Cheng. She didn’t dare to imagine what it would be like in the future.
“Are you Miss Huang Ying?” Lina asked despite already knowing the answer.
“That’s right. I am,” Huang Ying weakly answered.
Huang Ying’s heart felt complicated as she looked at Lina, who was sitting across from her. That was because this was a woman who was just as bright and splendid as w.a.n.g Yazhi. Similarly, they were both middle-aged women. Although Lina, who was almost 50, was much older than her and w.a.n.g Yazhi, she still looked like a young woman.
When she walked over with Xu Cheng from afar, it looked more like they were siblings rather than mother and daughter.
Huang Ying clenched her teeth. Whenever she saw w.a.n.g Yazhi, she would be jealous of w.a.n.g Yazhi. Now, upon seeing Lina, she also began to be jealous of Lina.
Lina observed Huang Ying’s complicated expression, and she said, laughing, “Don’t just sit there. This is the consumer region. We can order a couple of things as afternoon tea. We can chat as we eat.”
When he heard Lina’s words, Eric, as the a.s.sistant, was about to call over a server when someone else beat him to it.
Xu Cheng waved at a waitress who was nearby and shouted in a cold voice, “Waitress!”
The waitress walked over with the drink menu and the regular menu. “What would you guys like to order?”
Xu Cheng took the menu and directly ordered the most expensive four-person combo for afternoon tea without asking for anyone else’s opinion. “We’ll have this one.”
“Okay.” Just as the waitress was about to leave, she was called back by Lina. “Wait, I don’t like the black tea that comes with the combo. Just give me a cup of lemon and honey water.”
“Okay.”
After the server left, Xu Cheng finally realized her carelessness. Her face tensed up, and she apologized to Lina, saying, “I didn’t know that you don’t like black tea.”
