Chapter 435: Master, Laugh Once More!

“When I was fifteen, I was hospitalized. The doctor said I was not biologically related to my parents. That feeling was like… getting struck by lighting on a bright and sunny day… During that whole period, they kept talking about wanting to search for their biological daughter, and I would eavesdrop at the door. My mum didn’t want to look for their biological daughter. She said she was willing to settle for what they had then and leave the mistake as it is. She wanted to continue treating me like their biological child, but my dad insisted on looking for her. My mum has always obeyed my father’s words. Surprisingly, for some reason, she insisted on her stand, and the two of them argued for days. During that time, I felt terrible. I didn’t want my family to be torn apart because of me, so I convinced my mother to look for their biological daughter. When I found out that she had been growing up at the orphanage and living in hards.h.i.+p, I felt really guilty deep down.

“I still can’t forget that feeling. When she returned to the Shen Family, I was guilty yet… envious. I was envious that she had such great parents. I was envious of her… if she was willing to be my sister, I would have really been willing to be a nice and obedient younger sister to her. If I had anything, I was ready to give it to her. If we were on good terms all the way until we grew up, I wouldn’t mind helping her with designing. I was ready to give her everything she wanted from me.

“As long as our family was peaceful and nice, I really wouldn’t mind anything, but it’s such a pity that life did not go as I had wished. Back then, Grandma was still alive. Grandma treated me really well. Although she knew that I wasn’t her biological granddaughter, she still treated me really well, and she was biased towards me. During Chinese New Year, there was always more money in my red packet than Shen Lin’s. When she went out with her friends, she would give me a better present than Shen Lin’s. Back then, Shen Lin was already pretending to be mature. She never made a fuss about it, but she always found trouble with me in private. There was once when she tripped me over and I fell down from the second floor. I almost suffered a concussion. My parents wouldn’t believe that she had tripped me over, but Grandma made her kneel down and spanked her with a belt. Back then, I was hospitalized, so I didn’t know. She was badly beaten, and my mother blamed me for complaining to Grandma. Speaking of it makes my heart hurt. When Grandma pa.s.sed on, she was worried about me, so she kept reminding mum and dad to take good care of me. Sadly, my relations.h.i.+p with my parents had already faded slightly at that time. The old lady gave dad all her inheritance but left some private money and jewelry in a safe at the bank. She then pa.s.sed me the key to the safe secretly.

“When I was kicked out of my home, I had already coincidentally received an acceptance letter from Paris Art School. Mom gave me ten thousand dollars, but that by itself wasn’t enough for anything. I didn’t know what to do, so I went to get Grandma’s money. I’m so grateful for her. She was my life savior. I was the person she would miss the most when she died. But for Grandma, I had to repay her kindness. If it was not for this amount of money, I wouldn’t have gone to Paris. I wouldn’t have met you, Master.”

Ye Ling laughed softly. Shen Qianshu first felt a little embarra.s.sed and shy. Then, those emotions changed into anger. She punched his chest and said, “What are you laughing at?!”

After all that anger, she realized something and crawled up suddenly. Her body was on Ye Ling’s. She stared at him as if he was a new world. “You laughed.”

“Get off me.”

“No.” Shen Qianshu put her two hands on his face and tried to entice him while smiling. “Laugh again.”

Ye Ling remained silent. He was really cool. He had always been so cool, and he rarely got close to people. When he did not speak, he was like an ice statue. His smile was like a Kadupul flower. When it was over, it was over. She had never known that a person’s smile could be such a national treasure.

“What were you laughing at?”
