Lijuan laughed happily and said, "I am not in kindergarten dad. I will beat them up if someone tries to bully me!!"
"Yeah, that's my girl". Lee Jianguo gave a hug to both his daughter and his wife and told them good byes. He was already late to office but it was a good discussion and made his day happy. He went out of the house where his secretary and driver were waiting for him near the door, his aura changed to the "great business tycoon Lee Jianguo" from the sweet father he was a minute before. His soft side was only shown Infront of his wife and daughter. To everyone else he was strict and cold business man.
Lijuan bid farewell to her father and gave a tight hug again to her mother and went back to her room. After closing the room door, Lijuan felt relived. She didn't tell the truth nor did she lie to her parents. Now she can make a smooth growth without making anyone suspicious about her behavioral change. If anyone asks, she will tell that her parents become stricter because now she is in senior high-school and she has to show her full potential. Afterall, she is the only daughter of Lee Jianguo and Hua Mulan, she has two big empires to take over.
Ivy, was just watching the show and felt somewhat emotional seeing the family reunion, but when it heard the final thoughts of Lijuan it couldn't help but wonder how fast would this woman's thoughts change.
Ivy said, "I see, no wonder you wanted to act like coming clean Infront of your parents. You even chose the day when Meirong was away to speak with your parents and rebuild the bond".
"Yes. How can I let a third person to enter into my family's affairs. I will slowly show that Meirong, what it feels like being beaten in her own game, that too by a fool whom she has never seen as an opponent", replied Lijuan.
Once again, Lijuan went into a deep thought. If she remembers correctly, then today was the day Meirong went out to welcome her childhood sweetheart Li Chen. During this time, Li Chen's family moved from Guangdong Province to Capital City. Li Chen's family owns the "Chen industries Ltd" which is a medium size retail food company. Li Chen's father Li Daoming is a shrewd business man, he can do anything to achieve his goals. He has taken down majority of the retail food processing companies in Guangdong to make enough development to move to Capital city. No matter how shrewd Li Daoming is, developing a business in Capital city without any connection is near to impossible. The reason why Li Daoming let Li Chen have contact with Meirong all this year is for this reason. But he didn't know that even though Meirong is staying with us since she was 8 years old, I am not counting her fake age she told me when we met. She is in the same class as me and her age is given as 6 years and I was 5 years old when I met her in Guangdong province. Basically, my parents agreed to support her living and gave her education like I wanted but she could never enter the household register. She is still Lu Meirong and my parents never agreed for adopting her into the family. She was just my study companion.
Lu Meirong believes that she is part of the Lee family and orders people around. She acts more like a real daughter of the Lee family than me. Since she as able to control me however she wanted, she is kind off real daughter with power only. The same was also believed by Li Chen and his family. With the support of Lee family Li Daoming's business wouldn't suffer. That's what happened in previous life. Lijuan begged her father to support Li Chen's father so that she can fulfil the promise made by Lu Meirong. And then she also forced her father to let Li Chen to study in the International School of Beijing the top school in Capital City with best education, best teachers and best environment for students. It's indeed a school for rich people but the principle and the founder of this school are very strict with the rules, money can't get you a seat or special treatment. Only the students IQ, knowledge and hard work matters. It's pride in the upper circle of the Capital city if their kids are studying in this school. And here she was forcing her father to get Li Chen admission to the school, even if her dad was big business man, still he can't get to say anything that school. But it was not very difficult get Li Chen a seat as he was a good student with good profile. So, the school excepted her father's suggestion and gave a seat for Li Chen and her father had to donate money for building new hostels and libraries in the back side of the school area as a compensation for asking the Favor. However, this and all did not matter to Lijuan in her previous life. All she wanted was to reunite Lu Meirong and Li Chen to be happy. And this was the beginning of her down fall. Because of what she did for Li Chen, he wanted to meet her and thank her personally, and then they started to talk, study together, and got closer. She herself helped them to set up a trap and willingly went and fell right into the trap which ended her life.
Lijuan slowly recovered from her memories and started to think about the events that would happening today. In another half and hour to one hour, Lu Meirong will be back with a sad face and the story will begin. Lijuan was preparing for the next drama that was about to take place and Ivy was also curious about the things that are going to happen. As Lijuan was waiting an hour passed, finally the made opened the door and Lu Meirong entered the house with a smug smile. Remembering her sweet time with her sweetheart and the plan they both made to take down Lijuan made her extremely happy and she could not wait to sow off her acting skills. She hated Lijuan to the bones.
