CHAPTER 339: CHAPTER 339

Jiang Weiwei opened her tear-blurred eyes and, the moment she saw Suchen, it was as if she saw redemption itself, suddenly throwing herself into Suchen’s arms and bursting into loud sobs.

Suchen had not expected Jiang Weiwei to suddenly hold her and cry, and could not bring herself to push her away for a while.

Especially considering that her own daughter was out there somewhere, possibly feeling as uncontrollably upset as this, crying helplessly to strangers, a corner of her heart couldn’t help but soften.

So, Suchen even reached out to gently pat Jiang Weiwei on the back and softly consoled her, "It’s okay. I don’t know what happened to you, but everything that’s been going wrong will surely pass."

Under Suchen’s gentle consolation, Jiang Weiwei gradually calmed down.

But about the events of the day, Jiang Weiwei didn’t dare say a word to Suchen, for she was also afraid of disappointing her.

Noticing it was already late, Suchen suggested, "I’ll take you home. Get a good night’s sleep and you’ll feel better tomorrow."

But with downcast eyes, Jiang Weiwei said dejectedly, "I don’t know if that place is still my home. They said they couldn’t bear to let me go, that I should stay with them for a lifetime, but in the end..."

Jiang Weiwei stopped mid-sentence, as if realizing something, and hurriedly cut herself off.

"Aunt Suchen, thank you for advising me tonight. But I really don’t dare to go home now. I’ll just find a hotel nearby to stay in for a couple of days."

Jiang Weiwei then bowed to Suchen in thanks, but as she rose, her long hair obscured her vision, which she then brushed behind her ear.

At this moment, the palm print that Yu Man had left on her face became even more visible.

Together with Jiang Weiwei’s already red and swollen nose from crying, as well as her swollen eyes, she looked pitifully forlorn.

At that moment, Suchen thought of her own daughter.

If her daughter endured the same treatment in her foster home and was too afraid to return, would there be kind-hearted people willing to take her in?

So Suchen called to Jiang Weiwei, who was a few steps away, "Weiwei, stay at my place tonight."

Jiang Weiwei stopped in her tracks, her eyes brightening.

But when she turned to face Suchen, her eyes were once again dim, her voice hoarse, "It would be a bother to you."

Suchen quickly stepped forward, taking her hand, "Not at all. It’s just for one night, come with me."

She was willing to be kind to all the girls in the world, offering them a shelter from the wind and rain, hoping that someone would help her daughter in times of trouble.

Jiang Weiwei was taken back to Suchen and Lai De’s newly renovated villa.

"Here are some clothes I had someone find in your size. Try them on to see if they fit. If not, I’ll have a few more sets sent over."

Suchen settled Jiang Weiwei in a room on the second floor of the villa and also found her some clothes to change into.

"Also, on the table are skincare products that young girls like you might need. Pick a few that you’re comfortable using."

Jiang Weiwei looked at the skincare products on the shelf, all from the most luxurious brands, somewhat surprised.

Seeing Jiang Weiwei’s surprised look, Suchen smiled and explained, "Every time I buy skin care and makeup products, I’ll buy some that my daughter might use, thinking that if she comes back to me, she could use them."

Jiang Weiwei nodded, "Actually, being Aunt Suchen’s daughter is very fortunate. Even if she can’t be by her mother’s side, her mother’s love is always with her."

These words deeply touched Suchen’s heart.

Suchen then couldn’t help but chat with Jiang Weiwei for quite a while.

Only Suchen didn’t know that, as soon as she left Jiang Weiwei’s room, Jiang Weiwei took out her phone, snapped photos of the table filled with an array of skincare products, and then posted them to her social media.

"Thank you, Aunt Suchen. I never thought that, in such a sorry state, I could still receive so much love from you."

Of course, Suchen was blocked from seeing this social media post.

After sending the Moments’ post, Jiang Weiwei leisurely soaked in the bath.

Everything in this room was top-notch.

Even the bathtub had spa-grade massage features.

Jiang Weiwei enjoyed all of this and couldn’t help fantasizing about owning it all...

On the other side—

Members of the Jiang Family all had each other on WeChat.

Therefore, many members of the Jiang Family saw the Moments post Jiang Weiwei had just sent, including Jiang Tairan.

But Jiang Tairan didn’t stumble upon it while browsing Moments; it was Jiang Dinghai, the second son of the family, who saw it inadvertently and then called Jiang Tairan to inquire about it.

"Dad, did Weiwei move into Lady Suchen’s house?"

Jiang Dinghai had always been hoping that Jiang Weiwei would succeed and turn THE ONE Corporation into a Jiang-owned company, so that he, as her second uncle, could also enjoy the good life.

So when he saw the Moments post of Jiang Weiwei, he immediately could not restrain himself.

But Jiang Tairan countered his question, "Weiwei moved into Suchen’s house? Who told you that?"

"It was in Weiwei’s Moments post. It looked to me like she had moved in," Jiang Dinghai said.

Jiang Tairan quickly had someone bring him his phone and checked Jiang Weiwei’s latest Moments post, which indeed carried the implication Jiang Dinghai had mentioned.

"What’s going on here? Why didn’t anyone tell me about this?"

After scrolling through the Moments, Jiang Tairan went straight to confront Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man.

When Jiang Tairan’s call came through, Yu Man was still complaining to Jiang Guosheng about the embarrassing incidents of the evening.

"That damned girl obviously did not know Xie Ling, but insisted on acting familiar and made me lose face in front of Mrs. Liu."

Yu Man also said, "What infuriates me the most is that she thinks the mistake she made was caused by me. I really don’t understand how she has the nerve to say that."

Jiang Guosheng now also felt that there was a problem with Jiang Weiwei’s character, so he said, "Then don’t let her enter our house tonight; let her reflect properly on what she did wrong!"

It was at this point in their conversation that Jiang Guosheng received a call from Jiang Tairan.

"Weiwei moved into Suchen’s house, why didn’t any of you tell me?"

Jiang Tairan liked to be in control and felt that under his meticulous arrangement, everything would maximize the interests of the Jiang Family.

But his abrupt and stern questioning left Jiang Guosheng also bewildered.

"Weiwei moved into Suchen’s house? When did this happen?"

Hearing this, Yu Man was also confused, and even scoffed, "She’s probably just bragging again. She bragged tonight as well and caused me quite an embarrassment."

Jiang Tairan also heard Yu Man’s remarks on the side and hastily asked, "What bragging?"

"Dad, she was just saying it angrily. Mother and daughter had a few quarrels tonight, and they are still angry at each other!" Jiang Guosheng hurriedly glared at Yu Man, signaling her not to spill the beans.

There was no denying that there indeed was an issue with Jiang Weiwei’s character, but speaking about it would only embarrass them as her parents, making others think they didn’t educate her properly!

Moreover, if Jiang Weiwei had really moved into Suchen’s house, then they had even more reason not to publicize tonight’s incident.

In case Suchen learned how despicable Jiang Weiwei was and took a dislike to her, then all their previous intentions of using Weiwei to acquire THE ONE Corporation would be in vain, like fetching water with a bamboo basket.
