Chapter 237: 082: Hidden secret for many years_7

"Beauty Chant?" Zhang Xianxian set down the cup in her hand, "Domestic product?"

"Mhm."

Hearing this, Zhang Xianxian scoffed contemptuously, "Mom, there’s no need to mention such an insignificant newcomer."

Their family distributed international luxury skincare brands.

Priced over ten thousand.

How could a minor domestic brand compare with them?

They were not even on the same level.

Hearing this, Shen Ruzhen frowned slightly, "Xianxian, don’t underestimate the enemy. I’ve heard that Beauty Chant’s reputation isn’t bad..." At least, the several ladies Shen Ruzhen knew were using it.

Moreover, they had all previously used exclusive luxury skincare products.

Zhang Xianxian continued, "Some domestic brands, in order to stand out in the industry, will use banned substances and excessive hormones in the skincare production process. These things will inevitably cause side effects if used for a long time."

Pausing there, Zhang Xianxian added, "I guess Beauty Chant has been established for less than half a year, right?"

Shen Ruzhen’s eyes widened, "Xianxian, you even know this!"

Beauty Chant indeed was an emerging brand.

It had only been established for five months.

Zhang Xianxian’s lips curled up slightly, "So, Mom, there’s no need to take domestic brands seriously. These shrimps and crabs are simply not our competitors."

When something is full, it overflows.

Sooner or later, skincare products like Beauty Chant will suffer the consequences of their inferior quality.

Shen Ruzhen felt that her daughter made a lot of sense.

Moreover, her daughter had been intelligent since childhood and had a talent for business, so Shen Ruzhen didn’t say much else, and then asked, "By the way, Xianxian, how is that illegitimate daughter doing now?" It was strange, considering Lin Wu’s character, she would definitely create a scene crying, making a fuss, and threatening suicide.

Shen Ruzhen had even made up her mind; if Lin Wu came again, she would have someone confine her.

But who knew...

Lin Wu had been quiet up to now and had not visited the Zhang Family again.

Shen Ruzhen always felt that Lin Wu was up to no good.

Hearing this, Zhang Xianxian’s lips showed a disdainful curve, "She’s just an ant, no need to pay her any attention."

Previously, Zhang Xianxian really wanted Lin Wu dead.

But now, it was no longer necessary.

Because sometimes, being alive could be more painful than death.

Besides.

Having that illegitimate daughter around to contrast with made her own excellence stand out even more.

Shen Ruzhen narrowed her eyes, "Xianxian, you mustn’t underestimate her. Although that illegitimate daughter won’t amount to much, she has the kind of face that seduces men. What if she hooks up with some powerful figure..."

By the end, Shen Ruzhen’s implications were clear.

Zhang Xianxian snorted coldly, "Even if she really hooks up with some influential person, her end will only be the same as her useless mother, trapped raising an illegitimate daughter who will never see the light of day."

What was Lin Wu?

Just an illegitimate daughter, she couldn’t possibly turn the world upside down.

Shen Ruzhen nodded her head.

Her daughter was right; Lin Guixiang had a pretty face, didn’t she?

But in the world of the wealthy, a beautiful face wasn’t worth mentioning.

What the rich cared about was never just the face.

Shortly after, Shen Ruzhen continued, "Well, I’m going to take Yaozu to his training class now."

Yaozu was Zhang Xianxian’s brother, Zhang Yaozu.

Although Zhang Yaozu wasn’t her biological child, Shen Ruzhen had raised him since he was a baby, and after seven or eight years, even a stone would develop affection.

Moreover.

Zhang Yaozu was Shen Ruzhen’s hope for her later years.

She felt like an empress who had been in the imperial harem for many years without any achievements of her own, regardless of who the child’s birth mother was—as long as he was raised under her name, who would dare not acknowledge her as the Empress Dowager in the future?

At this, Zhang Xianxian’s gaze fell on Zhang Yaozu, her eyes narrowed slightly as if wanting to say something, but in the end, she remained silent, "Go ahead."

Shen Ruzhen took Zhang Yaozu by the hand and walked towards the door.

Not until the backs of Shen Ruzhen and Zhang Yaozu disappeared outside the door did Zhang Xianxian turn around and go back to the bedroom on the second floor.

She used her thoughts to communicate with the System.

"Check who Lin Wu has been getting close to lately."

Although she didn’t think Lin Wu, that illegitimate daughter, could stir up any trouble, Zhang Xianxian still had concerns.

What frightened Zhang Xianxian was Lin Wu’s face.

If Lin Wu really got involved with some big shot...

[Alright, Host, please wait.]

Soon, the System retrieved Lin Wu’s recent whereabouts and the surveillance screenshot of Lu Ye dropping her off at her home.

Lu Ye was driving that Volkswagen.

Lin Wu was getting out of the backseat.

[Host, according to the investigation, the male she has most contact with besides her uncle Lin Bingqiang is Lu Ye.]

Lu Ye?

Zhang Xianxian’s lips curled up slightly as she looked up at the screenshot.

That’s right.

It’s the unwanted bastard of the Su Family.

In an instant, Zhang Xianxian narrowed her eyes, "Are you certain the data is accurate?"

The System replied: [Yes, very accurate.]

Zhang Xianxian’s smile broadened slightly.

As long as the data’s accurate, that’s good.

An illegitimate daughter and a little bastard, what a perfect match.

Zhang Xianxian continued, "What about Young Master Jiang?"

[Host, don’t rush, the System is still locating, and will carefully plan an encounter for you.]

Zhang Xianxian said no more.

In this life.

She must seize the right opportunity to marry the most prominent big shot.

She will make everyone in the Zhang Family look up to her!

——

Meanwhile.

Capital City.

Fang Hongyu arrived in front of an old house in the suburbs.

The door was closed.

From the surrounding scenery, it was evident that no one had been here for a long time.

In an instant.

Fang Hongyu pushed the door open.

Squeak.

As the door opened, a figure could be seen with their back to Fang Hongyu.

The person was wearing a large black cloak, their figure indistinct.

The face was even less visible.

Upon hearing the door, the person finally spoke.

"You’ve come."

Even the voice was processed through a voice changer.

"Yeah." Fang Hongyu just stood behind THEM, "Tang Qiushui isn’t dead."

Upon saying this, Fang Hongyu narrowed her eyes, "I don’t know if that person called Lin Guixiang is her, but all the other information matches. Should I get someone to issue a paternity test report?"

She was eager to know whether Fang Youling and Lin Guixiang were truly mother and daughter.

"No," the mysterious person cut off Fang Hongyu directly, "Once a test is done, it will inevitably leave a trace in the database."

Then it would lead to a situation where trying to steal a chicken results in losing the rice!

"So what should we do?" Keeping Lin Guixiang around was always a hazard, and Fang Hongyu was very concerned.

"Don’t worry, it’s all just your suspicion for now."

Upon hearing this, Fang Hongyu looked up at the mysterious person, confusion all over her eyes.

For anything related to Tang Qiushui, the mysterious person would never take it lightly.

But today.

THEY seemed so certain.

Why was that?

At that moment, the mysterious person laughed, "Do you think Tang Shaowei and Fang Youling can’t find out what you can?"

Fang Hongyu’s eyes widened, "You mean Tang Shaowei and Fang Youling have already done a paternity test with Lin Guixiang?"

The mysterious person nodded.

Having had one failed comparison, would they attempt a second one?

It was simply impossible.
