Xia Wei sat back with a proud look on her face, thinking she had already won.
Inside her heart, her thoughts were much darker.
'Once Lian Rou marries Chen Wen, she'll have to leave this house. When that happens, I'll finally get my place back in the Xia family. No more pretending. No more hiding. I'll be their perfect daughter again.'
She smirked silently.
'And Lian Rou… once she's out of this mansion, I'll have plenty of chances to attack her. Maybe even… kill her. Then she'll be gone forever.'
She thought her face was calm and unreadable. But Gu Jin saw right through her.
Gu Jin watched her with a blank face, but inside, she was already recording everything, not just on her phone, but in her mind.
'You think I'm stupid enough to believe you?' she thought.
Still, she didn't say anything. Instead, she yawned and rubbed her forehead.
"I'm tired," she said flatly.
