“I’ve already guessed that.”


“Frankly speaking, I’ve also gotten a private investigator to do a background check on you. I found out that your family background… is far worse than mine. I’m not trying to mock you or anything. What I’m trying to say is, if Yan Ge’s parents are dissatisfied with a background like mine, there’s no way they’ll accept yours. There won’t be a future for you guys if you’re incompatible in terms of status and background.


Not wanting to argue with her, Fang Erlan said, “Ms. Yu, in due time, you’ll find out what the exact situation is. If there’s nothing else you have to say to me, please go back. There isn’t much for us to talk about, Ms. Yu.”


There was no point for Yu Caiwei to stay any longer since Fang Erlan had already made things clear.


She stood up and drawled, “You’re making it sound as if I’m being nosy. Forget it.”


Yu Caiwei left while Fang Erlan leaned against the door and watched her enter the elevator. In the blink of an eye, the door opposite hers opened.


Standing by the door, Yan Ge asked, “What did she say to you?”


“You saw everything through the peephole?”


“She wanted to see me but I didn’t let her in. I then saw her going inside your apartment. What did she say to you?” he asked, remaining cool and composed.


“She said some really strange things to me and she seemed to really have believed the rumors on the news. She also told me that you two used to be in a relations.h.i.+p but your parents objected to it because of her family background and that your parents definitely wouldn’t accept me.”


“Did she say anything else?” he asked with a frown.


“No.”


“How did you answer her?”


“What else could I possibly say? I just told her that she’ll get the clear picture in due time. But…” Fang Erlan paused before continuing, “Did her parents and yours really oppose to your relations.h.i.+p and made you two break up with each other?”


“That’s only one of the reasons for our breakup.”


“Oh. I’m going back in,” she said sluggishly.


He did not utter another word and watched as she entered her apartment.



It was Bu Xianxian’s first time seeing s.h.i.+ Bao’er again ever since the pesticide incident.


Staring at the seven-year-old, Bu Xianxian gritted her teeth and questioned, “Tell me, why did you add pesticides to my cosmetic products?”


s.h.i.+ Bao’er retorted, “You shameless hussy, I really want to ruin that face of yours!”


Bu Xianxian smirked smugly and said, “Well, but you didn’t get your wishes. I really didn’t expect you to be so vicious at such a young age. Your mother has remarried, and I may not be your mother but I’ll discipline you on your father’s behalf. I’ll teach you to have manners and obey instructions.”


s.h.i.+ Bao’er completely disregarded her words and retorted, “You may not be my mother, but you’re staying in my house and pestering my father every day. You’re not a member of my family and yet you’re living in my house. I’ll let you know what the rules are.”


It was rather amusing to hear such words from a young child, for it came off as senseless and frivolous.


Bu Xianxian gibed in amus.e.m.e.nt, “Seriously? You?”


“Yes, me.” s.h.i.+ Bao’er did not say anything else.


Not bothered by her at all, Bu Xianxian headed upstairs to take a nap. She locked the bedroom door from the inside.


Just as Bu Xianxian stepped inside the room, s.h.i.+ Bao’er made her way downstairs.


Due to the pesticide incident, s.h.i.+ Shaochuan had instructed the servants to store all the poisons and pesticides properly in a place that’s out of s.h.i.+ Bao’er’s reach.


Thus, s.h.i.+ Bao’er could not find any weapons that she could use, even after taking a walk around the house.


After racking her brains, she finally came up with a feasible plan to deal with Bu Xianxian.


Knock, knock. “Who’s there?” asked Bu Xianxian, who had just lain down in the bed.


“Auntie, it’s me.”


Bu Xianxian was dumbfounded to hear her polite greeting. She was so rude and brazen with me just a moment ago, why does she seem like a completely different person now?


She answered the door and stared at s.h.i.+ Bao’er. “What do you want?”


“Auntie, my stomach hurts. Could you take me to the hospital?”


“Oh? You decided to stop being so sharp-tongued just because your stomach hurts? Didn’t you say that I’m an intruder and that you’re going to teach me what the rules are? You’re just a kid and yet you’re speaking like an adult. Is this how your mother taught you since you were young? Well, she can’t be any better since she gave birth to a child like you.”


s.h.i.+ Bao’er pursed her lips and instinctively wanted to retaliate. However, she decided to suppress her emotions at the thought of her plan.


“I shall change my clothes and be so kind as to take you to the hospital.”


Bu Xianxian then headed to the dressing room to get changed.


Upon the sight of her entering, s.h.i.+ Bao’er stealthily hid inside the bathroom.


Bu Xianxian exited, only to discover that s.h.i.+ Bao’er was no longer in sight. Thinking that the latter must have gone downstairs, Bu Xianxian went out of the room. Meanwhile, s.h.i.+ Bao’er took the chance to sneak into the dressing room.


Bu Xianxian still did not see s.h.i.+ Bao’er when she got downstairs and thought that she had probably gone outside to play. Thus, she did not think much of it or bother looking for her. After all, s.h.i.+ Bao’er was not her own daughter.


She returned to her bedroom, switched on the air conditioner, and lay in bed to take a nap without removing her clothes.


Due to the long night she’d had the day before, she felt extremely sluggish and lethargic today.


Her nap gave s.h.i.+ Bao’er the chance to take action.


s.h.i.+ Bao’er decided to teach her a good lesson and came out of the dressing room after Bu Xianxian had fallen asleep.


After taking a few glances, she moved all of Bu Xianxian’s clothes onto the bed and piled them up.


It took s.h.i.+ Bao’er several trips to and from the dressing room before she finally surrounded the sound-asleep Bu Xianxian with clothes.


She then walked toward the dressing table and grabbed a bottle of perfume whose contents she then poured all over the clothes. She was taught in cla.s.s that perfumes were flammable products.


Finally, s.h.i.+ Bao’er let out a sinister smile and set the pile of clothes on fire with a lighter. She then swiftly scurried back to her own room and leaned against the door to listen for any sounds.


Not long after, she heard the sounds of Bu Xianxian shrieking in terror.


s.h.i.+ Bao’er smiled smugly, closed the door, and locked it from the inside. She then stayed in her room and began snacking alone.


Bu Xianxian was covered in flames from head to toe. She was frightened out of her senses at the sight of the glaring fire. She immediately ran out of the room and yelled, “A fire broke out! Someone, hurry, there’s a fire!”


She zoomed to the first floor to look for Uncle Lin. Thick white fumes rose up and filled the air as soon as the fire was put out.


The air was filled with an overwhelming stench.


“Ms. Bu, just what happened?”


“I have no idea, I must check the surveillance camera footages.”


“Ms. Bu, did you forget that you insisted we remove the surveillance cameras in your and Young Sir’s bedroom? You said that you wanted privacy.”


“Show me the footages from the surveillance cameras along the corridor. Oh right, Bao’er… Hurry and show me the footages, step on it!” Bu Xianxian hollered, shocked out of her senses.


“Alright, please give me a moment.”


“I’ll go with you.” Bu Xianxian followed him out to view the footages.


She was overwhelmed with exasperation and pique after watching the footages. She stormed upstairs in a huff and headed straight to s.h.i.+ Bao’er’s bedroom. Banging on the door, she hollered, “Open the door! Open up! You imp, I’m going to beat you to death!”
