Chapter 1205: I Am Your Father-in-Law（3）
When Xucheng returned home, she happily began to unload the things that Lina had given her from Eric’s car. However, she couldn’t carry it all by herself, so she asked Eric and Huangying to help her.
“Mom, Eric, come over and help me!”
Between the three of them, only Xucheng was in good spirits. Huangying and Eric were both in a foul mood.
Huangying ignored Xucheng and walked straight into the house.
“Hey! Mom! Help me carry a few things!” Xucheng shouted at Huangying.
“I don’t care!” Huangying didn’t even turn around.
Xucheng looked at Eric and said coquettishly, “Eric, help me carry it. It’s too much.”
Eric only felt disgust when he saw how Xucheng was acting. He walked forward, took all of Lina’s things out of the trunk, and threw them onto the ground.
“Hey! What are you doing?” Xucheng shouted. She turned around to pick them up, but Eric grabbed her wrist.
“After everything that happened today, you still have the heart to pick up those lousy things?” Eric said in frustration.
“Lousy things? How are they lousy things? These are all luxury goods. Together they’re worth millions of dollars. They’re all expensive!”
Xucheng wanted to pull away from Eric’s grip, but he wouldn’t let go. Xucheng became frustrated. “What do you want?”
“You’re this happy over things that are only worth a couple million dollars?” Eric glared sinisterly at Xucheng. “Do you know how much wealth Lina has? Hundreds of billions of dollars! Hundreds of billions!”
“Of course I know, but these luxury goods are right here, and the inheritance isn’t! Besides, it’s not like I can inherit Lina’s fortune right now…”
Eric was furious with Xucheng and suddenly pushed her away. “I’m begging you, in the future, think a little before doing things and look at the bigger picture! Lina’s right. You really are inferior to Ling Tianya.”
When Xucheng heard this, she immediately exploded. “That’s right! I am inferior to Ling Tianya. Why did you want me to pretend to be Ling Tianya, then? It was you who came up with the idea, and it was you who forced me to do it, but now you don’t think I’m good enough?” As Xucheng spoke, she glared at Eric. “Do you like Ling Tianya? Have you been seduced by her good looks? So, now you’re just like Lina and don’t like me either, right?”
Eric sighed. Xucheng was being unreasonable. Xucheng had always been straightforward, unable to mince her words, but now she had entirely exposed her stupidity and greed.
Perhaps it was because the Xu family’s lifestyle had made too deep of an impression on her. She had thought about herself too highly for too long.
After they interacted with the Ruan family, Xucheng’s self-esteem was hurt, and she became stuck in a vicious cycle she couldn’t get out of. Now, replacing Ling Tianya and becoming Lina’s daughter had unleashed her true nature, which she had suppressed for so long.
“You’re being unreasonable!” Not wanting to talk to Xucheng anymore, Eric went into the house to talk with Huangying.
Earlier today, Huangying had not performed well in front of Lina. Many times, she made mistakes in her speech and nearly exposed their scheme. That wouldn’t do.
When she saw Eric walk back into the house, Xucheng pouted unhappily. “If you guys won’t help me, then I’ll do it by myself!”
Xucheng struggled to lift the luxury goods, brooding angrily. When she and Lina returned to Europe and she received Lina’s inheritance, she would definitely make Eric suffer!
