CHAPTER 422: CHAPTER 423: IT’S HARD

Shi Mei let out a soft laugh, expressing her approval, "You’re quite self-aware."

"Motherfucker!" Shi Yunchang was unable to contain his anger, while Shi Xuebai and Wang Quanxia, the couple, had already darkened their faces.

From the fullness of joy just moments ago, to the emptiness now, such dramatic upheavals had left them extremely irritated.

But Wang Quanxia was still seasoned. She held Shi Yunchang back and softened her tone, "Shi Mei, don’t mind your brother, he’s been in a terrible mood lately because of the debts he’s been pressed to pay. We currently owe the bank over thirty million, and have to make monthly repayments, which is not a big deal. The real problem is with the high-interest loans—we’re dealing with genuine desperadoes. If we anger them, they might even kill someone!"

"That terrifying?" Shi Mei covered her mouth.

Sensing an opportunity, Wang Quanxia quickly played the victim, crying out, "It’s true, it’s horrible. I’ve been losing sleep over this, worrying all day, my hair’s falling out. If it weren’t for you, I’d rather be dead..."

"It’s alright," Shi Mei said in a tranquil voice.

Hearing this, Wang Quanxia was elated, "Indeed, a daughter is her mother’s little..." padded jacket.

Before she could finish, Shi Mei interrupted, "You can just go ahead and die now, there’s no need to use me as a shield. Those who want to die can’t be stopped."

Shi Mei’s words made Wang Quanxia’s face turn even darker, her expression changing drastically, "Are you crazy, Shi Mei? I am your mother!"

"It seems you haven’t quite grasped the situation," Shi Mei settled comfortably on the office sofa and clicked her tongue leisurely, "It is you who are asking me now, not the other way around. Speaking so harshly and still wanting to take advantage of me by being my mom, where do you get such a good deal?"

Shi Xuebai’s face also turned sour, "You ungrateful daughter, do you know how much we suffered to raise you? Now you think it’s us taking advantage of you just to call us mom and dad? We should have let you burn to death with that doomed couple!"

Shi Mei’s smile faded slightly, and she spoke indifferently, "Digging your own grave."

Then, she actually hung up the phone!

Hung up???

No one expected that Shi Mei would now have such a temper!

Hang up the phone just like that after a disagreement?

In the past, she would never hit back when struck, never talk back when scolded, and would never dare hang up the phone first.

Has she really turned the world upside down?

Wang Quanxia trembled with rage, throwing her phone violently, she bellowed, "She’s grown wings now, daring to talk back to me. I’ve been so soft on her, what an ungrateful creature! No wonder her mother abandoned her, serves her right!"

Shi Yunchang, upon hearing this, was all astonishment, "Mom, didn’t you say her parents died in a car explosion? How could her mother abandon her?"

"What a joke!" Wang Quanxia no longer wanted to hide the truth, "The ones who burned to death were your second uncle and aunt. This little bastard was brought back by your second uncle; he said it was his boss’s daughter, who really knows the details!"

Shi Yunchang’s eyes widened in disbelief, "The boss? My second uncle’s boss from Wall Street, that famous one internationally, who was it?"

"It’s him!" Wang Quanxia gritted her teeth.

Shi Yunchang found it hard to believe, "But isn’t that man very old? How could he have such a young daughter? And you’re lying to me, aren’t you? If Shi Mei really is that man’s daughter, why don’t you send her back? Then we wouldn’t worry about money."
