Aurora Jiang was wearing a white silk shirt with a beautiful black bow on her chest, and a long black skirt that reached below her knees. Because when she went home, the hem of the skirt must cover her knees.

After getting off the plane, Aurora Jiang followed her driver directly into the car. She felt very uneasy. She often woke up from nightmares these days.

She was afraid that her family would find out about her affairs, and she didn't know how to explain it to her marriage partner...

Her heart was in chaos, after all, she was so old, she had never been in such a big trouble since she was a child, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

Aurora Jiang was sitting in the car, her hands on her legs, her long and curled eyelashes trembling slightly. Seeing that she was about to arrive home, her mood became more complicated and depressed.

This place is a huge prison for her. She wants to escape, but if she runs away, her mother's life will only become more difficult.

My mother was married to my father, and the two of them had almost no emotional basis, and it would be a bit reluctant to describe them as cold.

The car stopped in front of a single-family villa. It was a European-style villa covering an area of ​​500 square meters. There was a small garden in the yard with many flowers planted in it.

This is the season when flowers are in full bloom, and you can smell the aroma of flowers as soon as you get out of the car.

Candice Qin was watering the flowers. When she heard the noise, she raised her head and saw that her daughter Aurora Jiang was back. She smiled softly and said, "Our little baby is back?" As she said this, she put down the kettle for watering the flowers.

Aurora Jiang threw herself directly into Candice Qin's arms, pursed her lips and said coquettishly: "Mom, I will never go abroad again."

Candice Qin touched Aurora Jiang's head and whispered: "What's wrong? Aren't you having fun? Mom has put the certificate of the piano competition in your drawer. When your father comes back, just show it to him." "

Candice Qin knew that Aurora Jiang was going abroad to play, not to participate in any piano competition, so he prepared a fake certificate in advance.

Aurora Jiang felt a little guilty. On the way back, she kept thinking about whether to tell her mother what happened. Now that she thought about it, she might as well forget it. She already had enough worries, so it was better not to cause any more trouble for her.

"Mom is the best." Jiang Yi let go of Candice Qin, feeling a little sad. Growing up, her father didn't care about her at all. No matter how good her grades were, his father would only glance at her and never praise her.

Therefore, whether the certificate is true or false, my father will not look at it carefully at all.

"Your grandma is here too. She is having afternoon tea with your grandma in the living room. Don't talk nonsense when you go in, okay?" After Candice Qin finished speaking, his eyes were filled with distress.

If she had a choice now, she would definitely leave here with her daughter and never come back.

Aurora Jiang pursed her lips, she had enough things to do with grandma, and grandma was simply scarier than grandma.

Candice Qin took Aurora Jiang's hand and entered the living room...

Aurora Jiang's grandmother , Ella Jiang, is over sixty years old. Because she takes good care of herself, she looks no different from her forties.

"Grandma, grandma." After Aurora Jiang said hello, she slowly walked over.

Jiang Rongjuan glanced at Aurora Jiang and frowned slightly: "When you go out, you are the face of the Jiang's family. Why are you dressed like this, just like someone working in the workplace."

Sitting aside, an older-looking old man is Aurora Jiang's grandmother Freda Qin, who is in her seventies. She usually likes to echo Jiang Rongjuan's words. After all, the Qin's family still relies on the Jiang's family for help.

"You don't even know how to hold up your chest and raise your head when you walk. You have gone home, you are not a thief. Why don't you look like a lady like everyone else?" Freda Qin said sternly.

Aurora Jiang lowered her eyes and blinked her clean and clear eyes. She sighed deeply in her heart. She had long been used to it. Anyway, two people sitting together had to find something wrong.

Growing up, grandma always disliked her and her mother. It was probably because her mother was physically injured after giving birth to her and could not give birth to a son for the Jiang family. As a result, their mother and daughter's life in the Jiang's family was very difficult.

But my uncle is unreliable. Without the help of the Jiang's family, the Qin's family's company would have gone bankrupt long ago. So while grandma forced her mother, she also didn't forget to curry favor with grandma...

Candice Qin had a gentle smile on her face: "Mom, the child has just come back. Let her go back to take a bath and rest for a while."

"Mom is not telling you. This girl is old. If she doesn't educate her well, she will suffer the consequences." After Freda Qin finished speaking, he gave Candice Qin a hard look.

Candice Qin's expression never changed from beginning to end, always maintaining a smile and respectful attitude.

Jiang Rongjuan glanced at Aurora Jiang and said in an impatient voice: "Go upstairs to rest for a while and change your clothes. I will contact the etiquette teacher later to give you a lesson."

"Thank you, grandma."Aurora Jiang knew that she could only obey.

Otherwise, the mother would be caught in the middle and would only receive the blame.

When she was young, she was ignorant and always liked to confront her grandma. But once, she saw her mother kneeling on the ground to admit her mistake. From then on, she never contradicted her grandma again.

She was happy to act impulsively, but it was her mother who bore the consequences.

"Walk with your chest held high and your head held high," Freda Qin added sharply.

Aurora Jiang always walked with her chest raised and her head raised. Grandma was just deliberately looking for trouble, and she didn't know where she offended her again.

"Grandma, grandma, I'm going back upstairs first." Aurora Jiang said and took Candice Qin's hand: "Mom, go upstairs and help me choose a suitable dress. After all, I have an etiquette class later and I'm afraid of making a mistake. .”

Candice Qin smiled and followed Aurora Jiang and said politely: "Mom, I'll accompany Aurora Jiang upstairs first."

Jiang Rongjuan did not reply, but took a sip of black tea, with disdain and disgust on her expression. If it weren't for the fact that her losers could marry foreign nobles, she would have kicked them out long ago.

Seeing this, Freda Qin glared at Candice Qin: "After picking out the clothes, come down quickly. Aren't you going to make flower jam?"

After returning to the room, Aurora Jiang lay directly on the bed and kicked off her shoes: "Mom, what happened to my grandma?"

"Your uncle needs five million in working capital, but your father won't agree." After Candice Qin finished speaking, he opened the wardrobe, picked out a long dress that would not go wrong and put it on the bed.

Aurora Jiang curled her lips and said: "Mom, let's just leave it alone. We can't help at all. If uncle can't ask, he will ask grandma to come. If he refuses grandma, grandma will cause trouble for you and me. How can there be such a thing..."

"If I don't agree, your grandma will always live here, and you and I will still have a good life?" Candice Qin said and sat on the edge of the bed, her voice was gentle and gentle. She didn't care. In the end, she would only embarrass Aurora Jiang.

Aurora Jiang lay on the bed and hugged Candice Qin's waist. Her voice was a little dull: "Mom, don't agree. Grandma wants to punish her. Let her punish her. It's just kneeling for a few hours and scolding a few words. I can bear it."

"But mom can't bear it." Candice Qin patted Aurora Jiang's body twice: "Okay, get up, put on your clothes, and go downstairs with mom to make flower jam."

Aurora Jiang gritted her teeth. A bottle of flower jam cost more than 50 yuan, so she could get as much as she wanted, but grandma made it difficult for her mother and asked her to make it by herself.

Mother does many things at home, such as three meals a day and grandma's change of clothes. Although there are nannies, she dislikes them for not doing a good job and insists on mother doing it.

In her opinion, she just didn't like her mother and was deliberately looking for trouble.

"Mom, I've grown up. Why don't we two leave the Jiang's family? We don't want to be rich, just have food and clothing." Aurora Jiang looked at Candice Qin distressedly.

Candice Qin eyes dimmed and his voice became lowered: "If we leave, the Qin's Group will not be able to function. That is your grandfather's life-long effort."

"But I don't want to marry someone I don't want to marry." Aurora Jiang rubbed against Candice Qin's body, feeling extremely depressed.

Candice Qin smiled: "Don't worry, mom won't let you get married, trust her." Her life was ruined, but she would not let her daughter repeat this path.

But now is not the time...

Aurora Jiang wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by a knock on the door. Candice Qin opened the door, and there was a middle-aged man standing outside. He was wearing a white shirt and black suit pants, standing at the door with a sullen face.

"Dad." Aurora Jiang stood up and walked over with a smile.

Keith Jiang took out an invitation letter and handed it to Aurora Jiang: "There will be a dinner at the Hotel Sunshine at eight o'clock tomorrow night. Don't be late." As he said that, he turned and walked towards the stairs.

From beginning to end, he didn't say a word, and he didn't give the mother and daughter any extra glances. The whole person looked very cold.

Aurora Jiang turned her head and smiled bitterly at Candice Qin: "Mom, it seems that there is no need to show the fake piano certificate."

Candice Qin walked out, her voice gentle and not loud: "My daughter is already married, why do we have to go to the dinner party? She just came back, let her rest for two days?"

Keith Jiang was about to go downstairs. When he heard Candice Qin's voice, he stopped: "You have so much experience, lest you pounce on a man when you see him." After saying this, he had a mocking look on his face.

"Mom, it's better to go to the dinner than stay at home and let grandma find fault." Aurora Jiang consoled her.

Candice Qin lowered his head and said in a gentle voice: "You change your clothes first, and I'll go to the kitchen to make flower sauce."

Jiang Yi's eyes were red. She felt worthless for her mother. She had never seen her father enter her mother's room since she was a child. It was easy to see from her eyes and attitude that her father did not love her at all...

Aurora Jiang is extremely afraid of marriage. If she could, she would never want to get married in her life...

Next, there is etiquette class, how to sit, how many chairs to sit on, and when is the right time to sit. Because Jiang Rongjuan and Freda Qin are watching, Aurora Jiang does not dare to be lazy.

"Why are you so stupid? Why can't you always remember such a simple thing?" Jiang Rongjuan stood up and left angrily.

Qin Chun glanced at Aurora Jiang: "Just like you, if you marry abroad, you will have to be called back within two days."

The etiquette teacher frowned slightly. Sometimes she couldn't tell who should take the etiquette class...

Aurora Jiang sat on the chair, with tears in her eyes. Finally, she took a deep breath and whispered: "I'm sorry, teacher, let's continue."

After three hours of etiquette classes, an extremely depressing dinner, and two hours of piano lessons, Jiang Yi finished washing up after nine o'clock in the evening. Aurora Jiang sat on the edge of the bed with a sad look on her face.

The pencil case she used to go to school cost more than 4,000 yuan, and the shoes she wore cost five figures. She had a driver to take her to and from school, and the cars she drove were all luxury cars. Her classmates were extremely envious.

But she wanted to escape. She lived like a dummy all day long. Being at home during the holidays was simply painful. The classes from morning to night gave her a headache.

At this time, Lambert Bai was sitting on a sofa imported from Italy in the five-star luxury presidential suite, holding a cigar between his slender fingertips and looking at his nephew with a serious expression.

Behind him stood several foreign men, each wearing a suit, with their hands behind their backs.

"Uncle, just go there for me. I have an appointment tomorrow and I really can't leave." Lewis Bai sat on the armrest of the sofa, holding the pipe in his mouth.

Lambert Bai doesn't like parties, and as soon as he got off the plane, he was stared at, which made him very disgusted and uncomfortable.

After all, with his identity here, it is normal for Country A to fully monitor him.

"Brother-in-law, just go for me. It's not a gentleman to keep a beauty waiting." Lewis Bai said and blew out a smoke ring.

His frivolous appearance has nothing to do with being a gentleman.

Lambert Bai was annoyed by Lewis Bai ink marks. He raised his arm and pointed at the door: "Get out."

Lewis Bai saw this and put the invitation directly on the coffee table: "Uncle, don't forget to Hotel Sunshine tomorrow at eight o'clock tomorrow evening."

Lambert Bai glanced at him and leaned on the sofa with his strong body. He was dressed very casually. The buttons of his black shirt were slightly open, revealing his delicate collarbone, and his prominent Adam's apple made him look even sexier.

After Lewis Bai left, the foreign man beside him handed a piece of information to Lambert Bai : "I found out that the woman in the grove that day was the daughter of Keith Jiang of the Jiang's family family. She started her business in lumber in China and now wants to start a business. Go abroad.”

Lambert Bai smoked a cigar and looked at the information. In the photo, Aurora Jiang smiled as brightly as the sunshine in spring, with clear eyes and a delicate face.

Unexpectedly, he actually slept with his nephew's marriage partner.

Lambert Bai breathed a long sigh of relief. It was difficult to deal with it this time. Sometimes it's hard to explain fate.

"Boss Bai, should we bring her over..." The foreign man behind him said with a lewd smile.

Lambert Bai turned his head and took a puff of his cigar: "I don't like playing with women, and this is country A. Remember this. Otherwise, if something happens, don't blame me for not reminding you." His voice was cold, and his expression followed suit. sank.

"Well, Boss Bai, we also found that woman's contact information. Do you want it?" The foreign man behind him bent down and whispered in Lambert Bai's ear.

Lambert Bai thought for a while and handed over his mobile phone.

After a while, a number was saved on his mobile phone with the note "Xiao Shulin". After Lambert Bai saw it, he frowned and changed it to "Little Girl".

Aurora Jiang was lying on the soft big bed, holding ice cream in her hand, which she had secretly taken while her grandma was resting.

Grandma wouldn't let her eat food that was too cold, saying it was bad for her health. It was originally a caring statement, but it would have been better if she hadn't said "Don't let her have a cold palace and not be able to have children".

While Aurora Jiang was eating, shaking her legs and watching the short video, she suddenly received a call from an unknown person and she hung up immediately.

She didn't have many friends. Most of the people she called and texted were promotional or scam calls, and she was too lazy to answer them.

At this moment, Aurora Jiang received a message on her mobile phone. She glanced at it and saw that there were only three simple words on it: "Return the call." She hesitated for a moment.

Aurora Jiang: "Who are you?"

Lambert Bai was wrapped in a bathrobe. After taking a look at the message, he dialed the phone. The little girl was quite vigilant. She just liked to go out for walks at night...
