Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 76: Multiple Gains

    

bly kept. She spent a sleepless night filled with anxiety. When she saw Lian Yi again, her face was distorted, but under Xuan Si's smiling gaze, she immediately lowered her guard and adjusted her expr...Zhao Xianrou held the well-behaved little boy in her arms, and her confidence grew. She hadn't returned home for four years abroad, even taking a year off from school, all to give birth to this child. She was also waiting to return to Shanghai, to reclaim what belonged to her.

After the truth about her not being Zhao's biological daughter came out, although her friends didn't say anything particularly harsh, they clearly kept their distance from her, making her realize the coldness of human relationships.

Originally, she planned to wait until Lianyi arrived in Shanghai so she could use her advantages to completely overwhelm her, making her feel inferior to the dust. Unfortunately, Wu Lianyi was very self-aware and didn't come to Shanghai. She continued to study in that small place, which ruined her plan, but also gave her a sigh of relief.

So, after returning to Shanghai, she went to find Yang Ziyi. On the one hand, she proactively confessed her own background and wanted to see his reaction. On the other hand, it was also a test of the Zhao couple. But the result left her very disappointed.

Yang Ziyi felt that she wasn't worthy of a marriage alliance, but she didn't say it directly. She only said that she would listen to her parents' arrangements. At the time, saying she wasn't angry was a lie. This was the man who had grown up with her since childhood, and he only cared about interests, which made her feel that he wasn't someone worthy of her lifelong commitment.

At that time, she had already given up on Yang Ziyi. Giving this kind of person to Wu Lianyi would be fine too. He could sacrifice her for the benefit of the Yang family now, and he could also sacrifice Wu Lianyi for other benefits in the future.

But then Wei Xin Yi jumped out, wanting to take her place. After watching the scene specially arranged for her, she had a vague idea, but it wasn't complete because Wu Lian Yi had never been to Shanghai during high school, leaving her with no starting point.

So, whether on the surface or in private, she kept her distance from Yang Ziyi. She never proactively approached him or made contact with him again. This approach, in turn, earned her praise from everyone, and her foster parents also approved of her actions.

Instead, Yang Ziyi took the initiative to call her several times, wanting to maintain a good relationship with her as classmates before the marriage was settled. This made her feel sick and further exposed Yang Ziyi's selfish nature.

When they were about to go their separate ways after graduating from high school, the class monitor suggested a get-together. Ci Rou felt this might be her chance because she saw Wei Xin Yi privately talking with the monitor, offering to host the reunion for free at a hotel related to her family.

She immediately sensed that Wei Xinyi might be about to take action. After all, for the whole year of high school, although Wei Xinyi had been around Yang Ziyi, showering him with affection, Yang Ziyi remained indifferent and never gave her a response. This must mean she was getting desperate.

Because Qian Rou and Wei Xinyi were classmates, she had been keeping an eye on Wei Xinyi privately and even asked a male classmate who liked her to keep tabs on Yang Ziyix's whereabouts.

And she unexpectedly discovered that Wei Xinyi went to a private club and bought something from a waiter, then went to the hotel where the gathering was held a day in advance and confirmed with the staff that no one would be in her suite on the day of the gathering, and left with a smile.

Xiā and the squad leader greeted each other. As the organizer of the event, she openly went to finalize the details for the next day's gathering. Then, as if casually, she said:

"That day, we'll definitely make it a little later. We also need to book a room so that students who are uncomfortable can rest there temporarily."

"Don't worry, classmates. Miss Wei has already vacated room 110 in the long package house."

The waiter said with a smile.

"Then it's settled, there's no need to book a room anymore."

Satisfied with what she had learned, she left the hotel cheerfully and even reported back to her squad leader upon returning, saying that everything concerning the hotel was arranged.

At the gathering the next day, a lingering glance from Xianrou's eye caught Yang Ziyi. Upon noticing something amiss with him, she surreptitiously poured a small bottle of mango juice she had prepared earlier into her own mixed fruit juice. Once an allergic reaction took hold, she retreated to her room with the help of her classmates.

...and she wanted room 111, right next to room 110. This was because she had an allergy after drinking the hotel's drinks, and the hotel didn't want this incident to be publicized. They immediately processed her check-in, helped her to the room to rest, and repeatedly asked if she needed to go to the hospital for treatment.

"It's fine, I just took a sip and realized something was wrong so I didn't drink any more. The symptoms are mild, I just drank more water and it will be metabolized."

She said in a gentle and understanding tone.

"I am so sorry, we didn't do a good job and made you feel unwell."

"It's alright, it was my carelessness. I didn't tell you guys in advance that I'm allergic to mangoes. I usually pay close attention, but the mango smell was masked by other fruits in the mixed juice, so I didn't notice it."

She smiled gently and said,

The hotel staff, seeing that the person involved wasn't pursuing the matter, breathed a sigh of relief and immediately left the room to let her rest.

Once the target left, she kept an eye on the next-door room. When Yang Ziyi and Wei Xinyi entered the room, she became anxious and immediately contacted her accomplice, a waiter who pushed a food cart. She asked him to go directly to knock on the door, interrupting the two's intimate moment, so that she could then appear and rescue Yang Ziyi.

Unfortunately, plans can't keep up with changes. Yang Ziyi actually managed to escape Wei Xinyi and stumbled out of the room on his own. Such a good opportunity, she naturally wanted to seize it, so she immediately changed her plan, causing the waiter to accidentally bump into Yang Ziyi and then slip the key card through the door crack.

The service staff who benefited naturally knew what to do. They helped Yang Ziyue up, picked up his room card that "fell" out of his pocket, and sent him into Room 111 before retreating with their mission accomplished.

Not until she heard Pu Li's disdainful words did she realize that she couldn't use this incident to get into the Yang family. So, she insisted that she was forced. After entering the hospital, she began to ponder how to maximize her own interests.

After much deliberation, she decided to retreat in order to advance. She resolutely cut off all ties with the Yang family and then used this incident as an excuse to flee abroad. Knowing her parents felt guilty, they certainly wouldn't abandon her. This way, she could legitimately refuse to return to the Wu family.

Furthermore, due to this accident, it's even more impossible for Lian Yi and Yang Ziyi to marry. Even Wei Xinyi is out of the running now. It can be said that this incident has benefitted everyone.

What she couldn't get, the other two couldn't get either, and she was still the victim. The Yang family didn't even have a reason to lose their temper at her. For their son, they could only lower their heads and apologize. Looking at Pu Li's face, she felt very satisfied inside.

So she immediately rejected the other party's proposal, and her foster parents were very supportive of her. They sent her abroad according to her wishes, and the school she attended was also excellent. The only unexpected thing was that she became pregnant. to Mom."Yu Meifeng touched her stomach.
