She quickly stepped aside, leaving that person lunging at nothing.
Under the dim light, Chiang Qingzhu, no, Chen Zhuâs face appeared pitiful.
Now the weather is cold, and there are large temperature differences between morning and evening. At this time, outside, the cold wind is already howling. Chiang Qingzhu was wearing a pair of pointed high heels, a skirt, and a thin windbreaker, her face pale and lips bloodless from the cold.
She looked like a delicate, pitiful roadside flower.
However, in Chiang Xiaoâs eyes, Chiang Qingzhu was never pitiful.
"What are you doing here?"
Chiang Xiaoâs cold tone made Chiang Qingzhu shrink back again. She looked at Chiang Xiao, feeling very sad and very confused, seemingly not understanding why Chiang Xiao was so indifferent.
Wasnât she her biological mother?
"I came to find you, Little, but I donât know which house you live in. No one has come out, and I donât dare to knock on peopleâs doors casually, so Iâve been waiting here for so long, so cold, so hungry."
She looked eagerly at Chiang Xiao, seemingly thinking that after saying this, Chiang Xiao should immediately take her home, give her a coat, and make her a hot meal.
But upon hearing her words, Chiang Xiao suddenly laughed.
"Chen Zhu," she called out directly, "I say, you are really strange. What are you doing here looking for me for no reason? Youâre cold, go back to the Kong Family. Youâre hungry, go back to the Kong Family. Whatâs it got to do with me?"
If it werenât for the fact that going over now would quickly let Chiang Qingzhu see where she lived, fearing sheâd keep pestering her, or see Ah Liu, she would have long pushed her aside and left directly.
Where would she still be here wasting words with her?
Hearing Chiang Xiao call out the name "Chen Zhu," Chiang Qingzhuâs face turned even paler. She looked at her in disbelief, her voice trembling: "Little, how can you, how can you call me that? Iâm your mom."
"Mom your ass!" Chiang Xiao couldnât hold back anymore, "I tell you, stop randomly claiming relations. My mom died a long time ago, and youâre even pretending to be a dead person! Get lost quickly, donât force me to hit you."
Chiang Qingzhuâs eyes widened.
Chiang Xiao wasnât like this before. Clearly, she had acknowledged their relationship, and she had gone back to see her parents. Why is she now saying her mom died a long time ago?
"Little, are you angry? Angry about me with Brother Kan..."
"Stop." Chiang Xiao looked as if she wanted to vomit, "Donât bring up your disgusting affairs with Kuang Kanzhi in front of me, alright?"
"I, I wonât mention it if you donât want, but Little, Iâve been having such a hard time at home these days, Xiao Fang never lets me have a full meal..."
She doesnât eat fatty meat or spicy food. Yet these days at home, every meal was fatty meat, and even the vegetarian dishes were cooked spicy. She liked eating rice, not noodles. These days, at home, they wouldnât cook rice, only noodles.
While Kuang Kanzhi wasnât home, Xiao Fang actually teamed up with the family cook to bully her like this!
Chiang Qingzhu had been miserable at the Kong Family for several days and couldnât get in touch with Kuang Kanzhi; it was as if heaven wouldnât answer and earth wouldnât heed her calls.
Then she thought of Chiang Xiao.
As for who told her Chiang Xiaoâs address, it was actually Kuang Qingqingâs kindness.
Moreover, Kuang Qingqing also told her that she would definitely find a surprising discovery at Chiang Xiaoâs home.
Thinking that Chiang Xiao was at least her biological daughter, Chiang Qingzhu came.
Chiang Xiao really didnât expect Chiang Qingzhu to actually come to her to complain, and even to speak ill of Xiao Fang, but seeing Chiang Qingzhu like this now, she found it very amusing.
