“Words don’t match the heart.”

Though she clearly cared for her mother, she pretended to be indifferent, adorably mischievous.

Only Yu Minglang could hear his quiet words, as his usually emotionless eyes curved ever so slightly.

“Young Master Lang, what did you say?” Yu Minglang’s secretary, Qiao Zhen, was befuddled.

At last, Yu Minglang removed his gaze from the one who looked like Zhou Zhiruo, surveyed his surroundings with his professional expertise, and decisively gave orders.

“The planning department is a mess at 3 o’clock direction; criticize them as the focus of tomorrow’s meeting!”

“Yes!” Qiao Zhen was fully obedient to the Scholar Boss, as was the entire company.

The Young Boss was a master of both pen and sword, with not a single blemish on his perfect record across all areas.

Before officially starting work, Yu Minglang took one last look at the now clean-handed Zhou Zhiruo lookalike.

Regaining his aloof expression, Yu Minglang reclaimed his title as the most impressive Scholar Boss in the entire department.

As Xiao Qian and her mother walked home, Xiao Qian had items she purchased from a ten-yuan shop in hand. 𝗳𝐫𝗲𝗲𝐰𝗲𝐛𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝐦

Jia Xiufang nagged the whole way like all menopausal women, consistently surrounding a central focus and going on indefinitely.

“Isn’t it just one dropped rank from university? There are plenty of alternatives like working or helping out with the family business, so why do you insist on marrying? You bought three basins for ten yuan; you’re just asking to be bullied by your in-laws…”

Xiao Qian’s ears were practically calloused from the endless chatter. freewe(b)novel.c(o)m

The incessant nagging exhibited by Chinese menopausal women was enough to drive anyone insane!

“Did I really fail to get into university?” A flash of brilliance ran through Xiao Qian’s eyes as she stared intently at her mother, attempting to glean clues from her reaction.

This year, after taking her college entrance examination, Xiao Qian had lost hope and reluctantly agreed to proceed with the arranged marriage proposed by her father when she didn’t receive an Admission Notice and was told by the Homeroom Teacher that she didn’t pass.

Failing to pass was an unexpected shock for the usually high-performing Xiao Qian, causing her great distress.

But what she never could have imagined was that Ni Jianren, a scumbag, didn’t react to women in the slightest – no, he wasn’t even worthy of being called a man!

He was born homosexual, only marrying a woman to appease his family. Xiao Qian was nothing more than a scapegoat!

Throughout their marriage, he had never consummated their relationship and beat Xiao Qian at any given time. Xiao Qian sought divorce but was unsuccessful due to her father’s interference.

The scumbag’s family had money, and Xiao Qian’s idiotic brother was prone to getting into trouble, so to keep the money coming, Xiao Qian’s father refused to let her divorce. At first, Xiao Qian held onto the belief that her family would support her.

But when she inadvertently discovered the truth about her top-scoring college exam results and her father’s conspiracy with the teacher to hide her Admission Notice, Xiao Qian felt utterly betrayed.

The ridiculous reason? He didn’t want to pay for his daughter’s education and wanted to save money for his son!

Upon learning the truth, a desperate Xiao Qian attempted suicide by the river but was saved by a kind stranger who, upon learning of her situation, offered her a substantial sum of money. She used the money to divorce Ni Jianren, retake the College Entrance Exam, and go to university. The kind stranger later sent money to her several more times through money transfers.

Later, Xiao Qian worked hard to complete her doctorate and sought to find the kind stranger but was unsuccessful.

After reincarnating and bringing up the matter of attending college again, she wanted to test whether her mother was involved in the scheme to hide her Admission Notice.

When Jia Xiufang heard Xiao Qian ask about this, her nagging expression immediately turned somber.

“Qian’er, I know you don’t want to hear me say this, but if you didn’t pass, then so be it. It’s been more than ten days, and you haven’t said a word since finding out. I’m afraid you might do something reckless. Your mother didn’t go to school either, but she’s still doing all right, isn’t she?”

Xiao Qian continued observing her reaction. “If I can pass, will you support me?”

“Nonsense! If you get in, I will support you even if I have to sell everything I own. When you wanted to go to high school, didn’t I nag at your dad until he agreed? He wanted you to go to vocational school and start earning money early. I believed you were smart enough to get into college, so there would be more prestige for me. But who knew that you…”

Just as she was about to say that her daughter had failed at this crucial moment, she couldn’t bear to hurt Xiao Qian’s pride and swallowed her words.

Based on the reaction, it didn’t seem like an act. Xiao Qian began to wonder: was it possible that her mother hadn’t been involved in her father’s scheme to hide her Admission Notice?

In her past life, Xiao Qian had cut ties with her family the moment she had accumulated wealth. She despised them for hiding her Admission Notice, a hate that spanned for many years.

When her mother was on her deathbed, she had gripped Xiao Qian’s hand and tearfully confessed that she had no knowledge of the hidden Admission Notice. Back then, Xiao Qian hadn’t believed her.

But now, seeing her mother’s reaction, she was beginning to waver.

Since she was reborn, she had to find her Admission Notice first and then get the tuition fees for school. As for her mother…

Xiao Qian glanced at the still-rambling Jia Xiufang and murmured to herself,

“I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

In her past life, Ni Jianren, the scumbag, had kidnapped her daughter and pushed her to suicide. It took Xiao Qian three years to meticulously destroy him from every angle.

Not only did she send him to prison, where he was constantly assaulted, but also, when he developed depression, she appeared as a doctor to provide him with “psychological counseling,” ultimately using psychological suggestions to drive him to the point of mental collapse and suicide.

That was the Villainess Boss’s most adept method. Just now, she had used her least favorite method of direct violence for her mother, lowering her own standards.

“What are you muttering about? Wait a minute; there’s a melon seller by the roadside. I’ll buy two; your brother loves them.” Jia Xiufang walked toward the melon stand.

Xiao Qian’s temporarily wavering eyes instantly turned icy.

Heh, her brother again? Just because he liked melons, did that mean she wasn’t allowed to? Was anyone ever concerned about what she liked? In their parents’ eyes, no matter how hard she tried, she was never as good as her brother. Even her right to attend college had been snatched away by him.

What expectations could she possibly hold for such parents? Her heart should remain cold, devoid of sentiment.

“The melons here are expensive; let’s go to that side.” Xiao Qian dragged Jia Xiufang away.

In her past life, her mother had done the same thing, which led to the bitterness and disappointment for Xiao Qian. Now, she needed to start changing her fate!

What Xiao Qian didn’t know was that her decision to drag Jia Xiufang away had a significantly changed her life’s course from the first day of her rebirth.
