CHAPTER 286: CHAPTER 266: STOP YELLING, I’M WRITING—IT’LL BE DONE BY TOMORROW

Xu Yun was completely furious, her body trembling with anger: "Jiang Ruan, you dare curse me!"

Jiang Ruan shrugged, nonchalant: "What are you talking about, why would I curse you when I’m bored? It’s you who first said as long as you’re alive, you won’t let me in."

"I meant to tell you, don’t speak so confidently, if the result isn’t what you expect, you’ll be the one embarrassed."

"You agree, right, Miss Xu?"

Xu Yun was quite angry: "No need to be sharp-tongued here with me, I came to find you for two things."

"First, from today onwards, I’m going to live here. This is my son’s home, I’ll stay if I want to."

"Second, give me Bao Ye’s phone number."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruan burst out laughing, her stomach aching from it.

"So you don’t even have your own son’s phone number, Miss Xu?"

Xu Yun’s face turned unpleasant, she gritted her teeth: "You’re shameless to say that, who knows what kind of seductive whispers you filled Bao Ye’s ears with, now he doesn’t even recognize his own birth mother."

"If this gets out, what would happen to Bao Ye’s reputation?"

Jiang Ruan wiped the tears from the corner of her eye, finding it amusing: "How are you so sure it was me whispering that made him not recognize you? Is Bao Ye such an easily influenced person?"

She’s shameless to call herself the birth mother.

When Bao Ye nearly had a plane crash, she begged her, how did she treat her, how did she treat Bao Ye?

Completely indifferent, even told her to get lost.

Now she knows she’s his birth mother, come here to make her presence known.

Does she have the right?

"If you want the phone number, go ask him yourself, if he doesn’t give it to you, it’s useless coming to me, I won’t give it to you."

Jiang Ruan’s laughter faded, continuing: "As for you wanting to live here?"

"I can only tell you one thing, not happening."

"This is my son’s house. What right do you have to stop me from staying?" Xu Yun said.

Saying that, she ordered the servant she brought along: "Go move all my things in."

The servants: "Yes."

Then they went.

"You..."

Jiang Ruan gritted her teeth with anger, wanting her own servant to stop them.

Yet if Xu Yun makes a fuss, it’s going to be a headache.

If something happens, it won’t be good.

Xu Yun looked at her smugly, almost saying, what can you do to me?

Jiang Ruan was completely speechless.

Forget it, we’ll talk when Bao Ye returns.

Thinking this, she turned and went straight upstairs.

Wondering if Bao Ye will be surprised or shocked to know about this biological mother’s arrival tonight.

Jiang Ruan is also curious.

Not even giving Xu Yun the phone number shows how cold Bao Ye is towards her, she clearly doesn’t want to get close to her.

Thinking this, Jiang Ruan wasn’t angry anymore, let her stay if she wants, what’s it to her, she’ll go about her business.

Downstairs, Xu Yun picked through and eventually chose the east bedroom on the second floor, albeit reluctantly.

But she was very dissatisfied with the bedroom decor, she told the servant: "Get me a designer tomorrow, take down this mirror facing the bed, it’s so odd."

The servant: "Yes."

Everything settled, Xu Yun took a bath, and had the servant massage her shoulders.

She hummed lightly, saying: "Bao Ye thinks he can avoid me? If he won’t come to see me, I can come to see him."

"After all, I was pregnant with him for ten months."

The servant beside her comforted: "Yes, madam, don’t be angry, maybe Mr. Bao has been too busy lately..."

"Too busy?" Xu Yun scoffed, quite angry: "She finds time to go to the countryside with that wild girl to record a show, yet won’t come to the old house to see him, he’s clearly bewitched by that vixen Jiang Ruan."

"Stop making excuses for him."

The servant immediately fell silent.

"Yes."

Meanwhile, Jiang Ruan had slept in her bedroom, her back feeling sore.

Nestled in bed, she bit her fingertip, pondering.

After thinking it through, she climbed out of bed and left the room.

Passing by, the servant: "Miss Jiang."

Jiang Ruan pulled her over to ask: "How’s it over there now?"

No need to ask, she knew it was about Xu Yun.

The servant said: "Moved into the bedroom on the east side, Mrs. Xu said it’s the biggest, has floor-to-ceiling windows, and the air is good."

Jiang Ruan was surprised, clicked her tongue: "The east room?"

Isn’t that...

"Yes, but Mrs. Xu was very dissatisfied with the design inside, especially the mirrors facing the bed, and the ones in the bathroom, she said to find a designer to dismantle them and redesign tomorrow."

Hearing this, Jiang Ruan coughed lightly to stabilize her unnatural expression.

"I see, thanks for letting me know."

"Go get busy."

Servant: "Okay."

Watching her back, Jiang Ruan bit her lip, glanced towards the room, certain uncontrollable memories flooded back.

It’s so! Embarrassing!

The mirrors, what they’re for.

No one knows better than her.

Who would have thought, she hadn’t been here long and a certain dog man had such quirks.

They’ve stayed in that room quite often.

Now Xu Yun moved in.

Jiang Ruan couldn’t help but feel awkward thinking about it.

Coming down from upstairs, she saw unfamiliar servants in blue clothes carrying various boxes up.

The commotion was quite boisterous.

But just moving in like this, she was quite displeased.

So, Jiang Ruan turned on the living room TV, a TV that hadn’t been turned on in ages.

She went back upstairs, changed into yoga clothes, and got a yoga mat.

Turned the TV volume to max.

Energetic DJ workout.

Then she started jumping around.

"Three circles to the left, three circles to the right, twist your neck..."

The noise instantly traveled upstairs.

Xu Yun, applying a mask, frowned, getting angry: "What is that noise."

"So noisy."

"Go tell them to shut it off."

Xu Yun ordered.

She liked peace and quiet.

The kind of loud music annoyed her the most.

It gave her a headache.

"Yes."

But soon, the servant returned, looking at Xu Yun who was lying on the sofa, hesitantly saying, "Madam, it’s Miss Jiang exercising downstairs."

"Exercising so late? And such loud music?" Xu Yun said, "She’s doing it on purpose, thinking this would chase me away."

"Did you tell her it’s too loud and ask her to shut it off?"

Servant: "I did, but Miss Jiang said... she said..."

"Say what? Just say it directly."

The servant said, "Miss Jiang said this is her territory, you can’t control it. If you don’t like it, go back to the old house."

The servant imitated her perfectly.

Xu Yun’s face turned sour.

Her expression instantly darkened, she sat up and tore off the mask on her face: "She dares to speak like that."

Xu Yun was so angry that she was breathless: "Fine, very fine."

Downstairs, Jiang Ruan was dancing, sweating profusely.

She hadn’t worked out at home for a long time and suddenly realized it worked just as well as going to the gym.

While dancing, she saw Xu Yun coming downstairs with a servant.

Jiang Ruan raised her eyebrows, simply pretending not to see.

Xu Yun went straight to the TV, picked up the remote, and turned it off.

The music stopped instantly.

Jiang Ruan paused, wiping her sweat: "What are you doing?"

Xu Yun commanded: "No more music at night affecting my rest."

Clearly acting like the lady of the house.

Jiang Ruan laughed in anger and said: "What if I do play it?"

"What can you do to me?"

Xu Yun cursed: "Uneducated wild girl."

"Bao Ye is my son, I’m his mother. You’re not afraid he’ll find out about your insolence towards me?"

Jiang Ruan mocked: "He’s probably not interested in your affairs."

"Besides, I’ve been impudent many times, one more won’t matter."

"Give me the remote." Jiang Ruan raised her hand.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yun smashed the remote without a word.

"Bang!"

Jiang Ruan’s heart skipped a beat; she frowned and looked at Xu Yun: "What are you doing?"

Xu Yun sneered: "Now you better not dance."

"If you dare to dance again, I’ll smash the TV as well. Let’s see who’s tougher."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Just speechless.

After threatening, Xu Yun went upstairs with her entourage.

Jiang Ruan withdrew her gaze, looked at the broken remote, walked over to pick it up.

It was already broken.

The servant who witnessed everything comforted her: "Miss Jiang, don’t be angry."

"Why should I be angry." Jiang Ruan said: "I was doing it to annoy her."

"The remote is broken, let’s replace it."

Servant: "Okay."

"There are spares at home, I’ll get one."

Soon, a new remote was brought.

"Will Miss Jiang continue dancing?"

Jiang Ruan stretched her waist and legs and smiled: "No more dancing."

"If I dance again, the TV won’t survive."

And this, a supposed noble lady from a prestigious family.

Hmph.

Always smashing things.

What’s the difference from a street shrew?

But born lucky, in the Xu Family, just gold-plated.

No wonder Mr. Bao’s father preferred to walk away with nothing to divorce her; everything has a reason, not necessarily just one person’s fault.

At night.

The car door opened, Bao Ye stepped down, his sharp features tired. But thinking of the woman in the bedroom, his furrowed brows eased a little as he strode towards the villa.

"Mr. Bao." The servant at the door greeted politely, though their expression seemed odd.

The living room lights were blazing.

Bao Ye responded with a "Hmm," keenly noticing a servant approaching who wore different clothes from the house staff.

And a strange face.

The man spoke coldly: "Stop."

The servant immediately halted: "Mr. Bao."

"Who are you?" Bao Ye asked.

"I..." The servant, stared at directly, was immediately intimidated by Bao Ye’s presence.

Looking at his unrivaled demeanor, Bao Ye was a bit impatient and was about to speak.

The butler’s voice sounded.

"Mr. Bao is back."

Bao Ye looked toward the approaching butler, his face slightly improved, and asked lightly: "Newly hired staff?"

Butler: "No, it’s someone Mrs. Bao brought in."

Bao Ye’s face changed: "Her?"

"Why did she bring people here?"

The man was already a bit angry.

The butler was a bit embarrassed: "Mrs. Bao said she would live here from today, already moved upstairs. Originally, she intended to call you, but Miss Jiang said not to disturb your work and to tell you when you came back."

Such words made Jiang Ruan seem especially considerate.

But Bao Ye’s face was still dark.

His lips tightened.

At this moment, Xu Yun came down after hearing the noise.

"Bao Ye, you’re back." Her voice was softer than usual.
