Murong Rui has always held a strong opinion against Song Qiao, you could even say Murong Rui harbors hatred for Song Qiao.
Part of the reason is that her parents died because of Song Qiao’s parents, even though in this matter, Song Qiao is innocent, yet Murong Rui still hates Song Qiao for it.
Another reason is because Song Qiao married Lu Jingchen, while Murong Rui, from childhood to adulthood, never considered Lu Jingchen her brother. Instead, she harbored a thought of marrying Lu Jingchen when she grew up.
Additionally, because Lu Jingchen is about ten years older than her, especially since when she was young, Lu Jingchen treated her exceptionally well, giving her a sense of security she never had before. It was from that ti that Murong Rui’s feelings for Lu Jingchen quietly began to blossom.
However, later on, when Lu Jingchen got together with Zuo Yuqing, Murong Rui realized the great distance between herself and Lu Jingchen. Especially whenever Lu Jingchen stood in front of her with Zuo Yuqing, she felt an inferiority complex. It was at that mont that she actively requested to study abroad, wanting to grow slowly in a relatively unfamiliar environnt.
Later, a few years ago, upon hearing that Lu Jingchen and Zuo Yuqing broke up, Murong Rui felt hope again. However, at that ti, she happened to be admitted to Columbia University, so she didn’t return ho imdiately. She didn’t expect that because she didn’t return imdiately, when she returned once again, she found out Lu Jingchen had already married soone else.
And that woman was Song Qiao, the daughter of the person responsible for her parents’ death. The most important thing is that Murong Rui knows Song Qiao is from the Song Family, a family with an empty title, yet she is very unpopular. Even her college graduation was only from a dostic university.
Although that university is quite famous dostically, considered a first-rate university, compared to Columbia University, it’s clearly far behind.
Thinking of this, a sense of reluctance and anger surged in Murong Rui’s heart, making her deeply understand she could no longer sit idly by.
The surrounding servants have always been cautiously observing Murong Rui sitting on the living room sofa, suddenly noticing she looks very unsightly and terrifying, couldn’t help but begin discussing softly with the maid next to them.
"Hey, I heard that is the master’s sister? Why does she not look as good as the master?"
The servant looked at Murong Rui’s appearance and couldn’t help but start whispering with the maid beside them.
Having been accustod to seeing Lu Jingchen and Song Qiao, a couple with striking appearances, and even having seen Lu An’an, Lu Jingchen’s cousin, suddenly soone claiming to be the master’s sister appeared, looking okay but not exactly a great beauty. Naturally, they felt a bit puzzled.
When the maid next to them heard these words, she was slightly taken aback, then glanced at Murong Rui sitting there, directly speaking, "The master’s surna is Lu, and that young lady’s surna is Murong, perhaps she’s not his biological sister, likely an adopted sister or sothing."
Upon hearing this, the servant spoke with a bit of mystery, "If it’s an adopted sister or sothing, then it’s even more remarkable. Haven’t you heard? Wealthy n often like to acknowledge so-called adopted sisters, but in reality, it’s not that simple..."
The maid was stunned by these words. Being no newcor to society, she naturally understood the implication, but maintaining decorum, she spoke, "The master and madam get along well, and it’s obvious the master loves the madam, so there shouldn’t be anything between the master and this Miss Murong."
"We also know the master loves the madam, but recently, the madam hasn’t been paying much attention to the master..."
The maid beside was wiping the large vase placed in the living room and suddenly fell silent.
Though the two servants spoke quietly, Murong Rui intermittently heard so parts, even if not comprehensively, hearing people discussing her, her face imdiately turned uglier, and she forcefully threw the cup towards those two servants, "Do you servants not understand a bit of decorum? What were you gossiping about just now?"
It’s uncertain if Murong Rui used too much strength, the cup directly flew towards the vase the servant was wiping.
Seeing an unknown object flying toward them, the servant was startled and instinctively used her body to block, to prevent the cup from hitting the vase in front of her.
The vase in front, which Lu Jingchen bid over a ten million for in an auction last ti, so the servants were very cautious when handling it. Many items in the living room are expensive, such as the vase in front of them, a piece beside the sofa not far away, a painting on the wall... Things worth at least hundreds of thousands, at most several million.
From outside, the villa doesn’t look very large, belonging to a mid-sized villa type, but once you enter through the gate surrounding the villa, you’ll find apart from the villa itself, the surrounding land area of this villa is quite large, especially with a backyard and swimming pool, and even a pavilion that Lu Jingchen had soone build.
It must be said, Lu Jingchen, besides being ticulous at work, actually knows how to enjoy life quite well, especially after marrying Song Qiao, he paid more attention to ordinary monts of life.
Previously, the backyard hadn’t hired a specialized florist for care, only having so robust flowers and plants, with most being trees. After marrying Song Qiao, Lu Jingchen had Assistant Xue specially hire an experienced florist at a high price to manage the backyard, even having so beautiful and suitable foreign flowers transported for the environnt here.
Song Qiao, during usual tis, when not working, loved going to the backyard the most, preparing a pot of flower tea, and then reading or handling work there, staying for hours at a stretch.
Everything in the villa, except so little ornants that Song Qiao picked up while shopping, is expensive, even the tea cup Murong Rui was drinking from is worth tens of thousands.
Once, when Song Qiao found out that cup is actually worth tens of thousands, she couldn’t help but ridicule the extravagance of capitalists. In the past, she only used a cup worth a few yuan for drinking water, but Lu Jingchen, a cup worth tens of thousands, that’s just... The evil of capitalism.
Too wasteful.
The servant also knew the price of that vase, so seeing Murong Rui throw the cup this way, instinctively used her body to block.
