Rebirth of the Evil Mother-In-Law

Chapter 120 – I know what is going through you and your mother’s mind (3)

She had been ShiZe’s assistant, but as Deng Lan would frequent the office, she worried that she couldn’t be able to refrain her emotions and exposed her feelings for Li ShiZe in front of Deng Lan. She had no choice but to reduce the number of times she went into the office and attend more extracurricular activities at school in order to distract herself.

Deng Lan felt better after learning that she wasn’t the reason for Li ShiZe’s bad mood. She must have just gotten there at the wrong time when ShiZe happened to be in a bad mood, which was why he had snapped at her. Besides, people always let their guards down around those that they were closed to. Did that mean that ShiZe was treating her more and more like someone that he was close to?

Deng Lan’s mood improved greatly from her own speculation. As though coated by honey, she felt a sense of sweetness.

She gave Jiang YaGe a look. It was a good idea to have Jiang YaGe on her side. She decided to give Jiang YaGe a bit of a reward. Jiang YaGe, who wasn’t as experienced as Li XinYun, was much easier to please.

She took Jiang YaGe shopping after dinner and bought her a set of clothes.

Every time Jiang YaGe accepted her gifts and thanked her, Deng Lan would feel a sense of accomplishment.

“Weather is starting to get cold. Why don’t you pick a scarf also?” said Deng Lan.

When Jiang YaGe wore the clothes that she bought her in front of Li ShiZe, that’d earn her extra brownie points anyway. It’s a win-win.

Jiang YaGe, following behind Deng Lin, looked to be docile and harmless.

“Deng Lan.”Halfway through their shopping trip, Deng Lan heard someone calling out to her. She turned around and it was her friend, Zhan Yun. They weren’t close friends. Plastic sisters at best.

“Zhan Yun.” Deng Lan nodded at Zhan Yun. Then, turning back at Jiang YaGe, she said, “Try this hat on as well. If it works well, I will buy it for you too. Eh? This top will look good with your skin tone. Why don’t you try it on too?”

Zhan Yun was a little bit surprised. Since when did Deng Lan become so generous? Her pocket money was only 10,000 yuan a month in the past. Now she would buy things for others?

“Is this a relative of yours?” asked Zhan Yun.

Watching Jiang YaGe walk into the changing room, Deng Lan put on a nonchalant look and said, “No, she’s ShiZi’s sister.”

“That’s not what Li XinYun looks like. Li XinYun is prettier than her,” said Zhan Yun. She recalled some of the rumors that she had heard from her mother recently and couldn’t help but enjoy Deng Lan’s downfall. She heard that Deng Lan had been seen with Li ShiZe a lot as of late as though they were a couple. But did Deng Li know that Li ShiZe also has a white moonlight girlfriend that he even offended his own mother over?

“She’s YaGe. Uncle Li’s adopted daughter. She’s very cute and I’ve always treated her like my own sister,” said Deng Lan.

YaGe?

Zhan Yun’s mouth dropped open. Did she hear it right? “Jiang YaGe?”

Deng Lan nodded. “Do you know her?” That made sense. Jiang YaGe has some fame online a while back, albeit not in a positive way. She felt that YaGe was a victim of Uncle Li in that incident. And, perhaps that was the reason that ShiZe had always tried to make up to her.

“Who told you that Jiang YaGe is Li ShiZe’s sister? They are boyfriend and girlfriend! Why did you think that Li ShiZe’s mother said she doesn’t have a son? It was because of Jiang YaGe. Everybody said that Jiang YaGe has her ways and was able to charm Li ShiZe so much. Why would you want to meddle in this?”

Waving her hands excitedly, Zhan Yun filled Deng Lan in on both Jiang YaGe and her aunt, not forgetting to embellish the stories with a lot of details while she was at it. Deng Lan went pale from her words and was barely able to remain standing on her feet.

Zhan Yun looked at the green hat that Deng Li had on with a look of pity. The green hat certainly went very well with Deng Lan right now.*

This was the very first time Zhan Yun saw a fool who’d take her love rival clothes shopping.
