Chapter 219: Transmigrated into the Republic of China's Tragic Fiancé (7)
Two years passed in a flash. Tonight, Ren Shufang carefully dressed up, put on her most exquisite dress, and waited at the door early.
After a long while, Mr. Ren finally came down with the second young lady.
The second young lady held Master Ren's arm and giggled. Master Ren's eyes also showed some kindness. Ren Shufang couldn't help but clench her fists secretly. Master Ren had never looked at her like this before!
But a girl born to a concubine actually dared to climb over her head!
Isn't it said that her father is an old-fashioned man? How come he can't tell the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children?
Master Ren looked over at her, and she quickly put on her brightest smile, "Dad, are you going out?"
Master Ren put away his smile and said, "Well, you haven't recovered from your cold yet, why don't you stay in your room?"
"Dad, I've recovered from my cold and want to go out and relax. And my teacher said I'm a pretty good dancer now. I, I want to go to the dance, too."
"Hey, sister, do you still want to go out dancing? Wouldn't my brother-in-law be angry? Oh, no, look at my mouth. What brother-in-law? It's obviously Brother Xiao. Hehe, Brother Xiao."
"you!"
Master Ren frowned, "Are you still associating with that Xiao? Do you know that his family has failed in overseas investments in the past two years and has become increasingly destitute, leaving only an empty shell. People who used to associate with them are now avoiding them! Take today's dance for example, no one invited them! Their family has fallen on hard times, do you still want to marry him and suffer with him?"
"Dad, I..."
Ren Shufang had never been close to her biological father, so when he questioned her again, she was speechless.
Second Miss Ren acted innocently, "Dad, don't blame me, it's because she and Brother Xiao have such a good relationship. It's called love is enough to satisfy your hunger, am I right?"
"Well, if you really want to, I won't care about you anymore."
This daughter is a hopeless case and has character problems.
When he adopted her, Mr. Ren wanted to thank her adoptive parents, because after all, they had raised his daughter to this age.
But when he proposed to take Ren Shufang to thank the other party, Ren Shufang kept trying to stop him, saying that the other party was not very kind to her, or that she had already made it clear to the other party and they would not bother each other in the future.
What a word!
The grace of raising a child is no less than the grace of giving birth to a child!
Besides, they obviously took good care of Ren Shufang, so it is hard to believe that they treated Ren Shufang badly.
Mr. Ren still sent someone to visit with generous gifts, and told them to come to him if they had any problems in the future, as he had some face here.
Unexpectedly, the people sent were kicked out and nothing was left behind. They said that as long as they had nothing to do with Ren Shufang in the future, they would be thankful, and no thanks were needed!
Master Ren felt even more uncomfortable. What kind of human nature could make her adoptive parents hate her so much?
His heart turned even colder. Well, he thought, he might as well give her a dowry before marrying her off, so that he wouldn't have to see her and be bothered by her!
So, he snorted coldly and walked in front with Miss Ren Er, and Ren Shufang followed shamelessly.
She kept Xiao Tianxiang's instructions in mind and took the opportunity to find an opportunity for his family during the dance. It would be best if she could find a suitable opportunity to mention him in front of his former friends and let everyone know that he was going to marry into the Ren family.
There was no way. His family's fortune was now depleted. Xiao's father said he was going overseas to discuss business, but the business failed. Not only did he lose a lot of money, he also became addicted to opium.
After coming back, he had no interest in his family business and spent his days smoking.
His company was considered as fat meat by other business partners, and each of them wanted to take a bite, so in just two years, it was almost out of the picture.
Xiao Tianxiang was willing to revive the family business, but he had not learned anything before. Others were polite to him only because of his father. Now that his father had lost face, who would care about him!
He can only rely on Ren Shufang to find opportunities.
Ren Shufang gritted her teeth and went to the dance.
She was not stupid. If she were in a normal environment and had two years to learn and see the world, she should be able to attend this ball with ease.
But with the "kind help" of several sisters, she felt that everything she did was wrong in such occasions, as if everyone was laughing at her, making her want to find a crack in the ground to hide.
But for Xiao Tianxiang, she had to grit her teeth and hold on, making others feel bad for her.
Eh, isn't it?!
Isn’t that Ning Ning!
Ren Shufang blinked, almost thinking that she had seen it wrong.
No, she was not mistaken, that was Ning Ning!
Why did he come here?
He looks like a young hero who is fully capable of handling matters!
At this time, someone was introducing Ning Ning, and she secretly pricked up her ears to listen.
Then, she was surprised to find that Ning Ning was actually an outstanding young talent. He not only owned a textile factory and a dye factory, but also a newly built woolen mill and silk weaving factory!
"Oh, you are Mr. Ning, you are really a young man to be feared! The fabrics produced by your textile factory are better than those produced by foreigners, and the dyes are not only cheaper than those produced by foreigners, but also brighter in color. You are really the glory of Chinese products!"
When people around her complimented her, everyone started laughing, except Ren Shufang, who was so nervous that she kept clicking her fingers with her fingernails.
Ning Ning is so powerful?
Although she had heard about Ning Ning's ambitions when she was engaged to her, and later when they broke up, she also heard that Ning Ning bought a small factory.
But she scoffed and put it out of her mind.
Doing business is not that easy. Ning Ning is just daydreaming!
Unexpectedly, in just two short years, Ning Ning has become a completely different person!
Oh no, Ning Ning must hate her deeply. What if she embarrasses her in public when she sees her later?
She was already nervous, and now she was even more tense. Her stomach felt like someone had squeezed it hard and she almost vomited.
But just when she was about to scare herself to death, Ning Ning's eyes swept over her, and then passed by calmly, as if she was a completely unrelated stranger.
Before she could relax, she felt mixed emotions.
Why does it seem like she is performing a one-man show!
She felt uncomfortable because Ning Ning hated her, and she felt even more uncomfortable because Ning Ning didn't hate her!
For a moment, she herself didn't know what to think!
But Miss Ren II leaned close to her ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Sister, this Ning Ning looks familiar to me. I feel like I've seen her somewhere before. Where exactly?"
She pretended to be thinking hard, and then suddenly it dawned on her, "Oh, I remember, he was your previous fiancé, and you dumped him after you hooked up with Xiao Tianxiang. Hey, old friends meet, he clearly saw you just now, why didn't he say hello? He couldn't be too lazy to talk to you. If you ask me, sister, you have really bad taste, you are so shameless that you insist on marrying that Xiao Tianxiang, you are really not worthy of carrying Ning Ning's shoes - ah!!!"
