The truth is, wealthy families are pretty chaotic, even in a small second or third-tier city like Jiang City. Like Feng Huaijin’s dad, who knows how many won he’s got outside and how many illegitimate children he’s fathered.
Couples as loving as Chu Hongyuan and Zhou Rong are rare in Jiang City’s high society. Other wealthy n, more or less, cheat, or keep a mistress.
Lu Xiaomian had heard about it — don’t those mistresses just want a promotion? Why doesn’t the daughter imdiately change her last na to Xu, and instead uses her mother’s surna?
Xu Haohao sneered, "That’s the brilliance of her mom. She makes her daughter take her surna so that every ti my dad ntions Shen Shuang’s na, he rembers the hardship she once endured as a poor girl with a living dad but following her mom’s surna."
Lu Xiaomian was dumbfounded upon hearing this. What a clever move...
The more cheerful and carefree Shen Shuang appeared, the guiltier Mr. Xu felt.
Xu Haohao said with disgust, "The year before she was brought back, there was a fire in the house my dad secretly bought for them mother and daughter where he kept her hidden away. She almost died in it. The scars you’ve seen on her arm are from that incident, which is why my dad insisted on bringing them both back to live and eat with right after my mom died."
Lu Xiaomian finally managed to say, "Every family has its own troubles."
Xu Haohao sighed and looked at Su Li, "Xiao Li, although you’ve gone through upheavals, at least now you’re independent. Sigh... Poor still can’t be financially independent, having to be nauseated by those two won every day."
After sending a few boys away, Shen Shuang was just outside the door holding a basketball when she heard this.
Shen Shuang couldn’t help but laugh.
Her mom indeed was skillful, otherwise she wouldn’t have brought her from a poor girl to a phoenix.
As an illegitimate daughter, the pocket money Mr. Xu gave them mother and daughter was actually very little because he wanted to consider Xu Haohao’s mom. Now that they officially moved into the Xu Family, they didn’t need to skimp anymore.
Hearing Xu Haohao grumble with her best friend inside, Shen Shuang couldn’t help but feel a bit pleased inside.
Xu Haohao lay on the bed hugging a pillow and sighed, "Eh, if only I could win the lottery jackpot, I’d also move out then."
Lu Xiaomian covered her mouth and chuckled, "You think too much."
Xu Haohao’s luck is unbelievably bad; she’s bought lottery tickets so many tis and hasn’t even won five bucks, yet she dreams of hitting the jackpot?
Su Li’s eyes lit up. Right on topic, Su Li coughed slightly and said, "Haohao, I visited a master on the mountain a few days ago and asked him to calculate a set of lucky numbers for . How about you take it and try your luck with the lottery?"
Xu Haohao didn’t believe in this at all, but not wanting to reject Su Li’s goodwill, she smiled and said, "0931X2... Alright, I’ll buy this number next draw!"
Anyway, it’s not like she’ll win, no matter what number she chooses.
Listening outside the door, Shen Shuang raised an eyebrow, this number?
Su Li recalled Tuanzi saying that Xu Haohao thought she lost him, cried so much at the Hot Spring Villa she almost passed out, constantly saying she was unlucky.
Su Li secretly thought as she watched Xu Haohao, if she wins the big prize this ti, she’d probably be over the moon, wouldn’t she?
Su Li and Lu Xiaomian spent the whole day at the Xu house before finally preparing to leave.
Xu Haohao escorted the two out, watched as Su Li’s car left, and only then did she leisurely take out her phone, open the lottery app, and purchase the number Su Li ntioned.
"This number’s been bought?" Xu Haohao was a bit surprised, then indifferently muttered to herself, "I’ll just change one digit then."
As for winning the lottery? Heh, she never counted on it.
