Chapter 88: One by One
At this moment, Xing Li felt like she was a joke. It was as if her fists had hit cotton. There was no point in staying any longer. She pulled Qin Xue and wanted to turn around and leave.
However, how could Qin Xue let go of such a good opportunity? She quickly said, “I think Sister is buying this shop’s best friend necklace. It would be great if I could wear it with Sister.” Her aggrieved expression and gentle tone made others think that she cherished her sister.
“If you want it, I’ll buy it for you.” One of her daughters was arrogant and domineering and ignored her. The other daughter was gentle and considerate and even probed her carefully when she wanted a necklace. Xing Li’s heart ached even more for Qin Xue when she compared them.
“Qin Ran, you heard what your sister said just now, right? When your mother buys the necklace, the two of you will each have one. No one will mind that you’re insensible. You have to learn to be grateful.”
Wear it along with Qin Xue? Wasn’t that disgusting enough? However, why was Zhao Fang interfering everywhere? Ever since she was brought into the Qin family, Zhao Fang was often by Xing Li’s side. She always called Xing Li Sister Lili, as if her family couldn’t afford to eat and she came to the Qin family to freeload.
“Godmother, forget it. I see that Sister has a friend beside her. She probably wants to wear it with her!” Qin Xue’s expression became even more aggrieved, and tears welled up in her eyes.
“Qingqing, let’s go. Why waste your breath on people with no manners?” Qin Ran didn’t let her stand up for her, so Su Nan could only think of a way to pull her away.
“Qingqing? So she’s your friend from the countryside! They’re all country bumpkins.” After Zhao Fang finished speaking, she even covered her mouth and laughed.
Qin Ran didn’t have many friends to begin with, so she cherished each and every one of them very much. She could ignore what others said about her, but don’t blame her for being rude if her friends were being slandered.
“Zhao Fang, you’re like a parasite, sticking to the Qin family every day. Is there a point to it? You’re just Qin Xue’s godmother. You’re just a nobody, so don’t think you’re that important! You don’t have the right to speak here.” Qin Ran’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was enough to make Zhao Fang’s expression change drastically, revealing a shrew-like expression.
“Sister, how can you say that about my godmother? Even if she didn’t dote on you, she’s still our mother’s friend. No matter what, she’s still your elder.” Zhao Fang was her biological mother, so Qin Xue naturally had to stand up for her.
“Elder?” Qin Ran sneered. “I’ve long severed ties with Xing Li. She’s no longer my elder, so what are her friends considered as?”
Su Nan knew that she had been really overthinking when she heard Qin Ran retort so beautifully.
“You wretched girl, you can forget the kindness of me being pregnant for ten months, but my blood flows in your body, and you have my genes. This can never be changed.” Xing Li’s posture could be described as cursing. She had no idea that Qin Ran had long been injected with Xuanyuan Seven’s reagent, and her genes had already changed.
“Sister Lili, you just mentioned being pregnant, didn’t I just remember that Qin Ran was pregnant? Whose child is this? Ranran said that the other party is a greasy old man.” Zhao Fang specifically said those unpleasant words.
“No matter whose bastard it is, quickly abort it!” Xing Li said to Qin Ran with disgust on her face and undisguised disdain in her eyes.
“My child has a father and a mother. How can he be considered a bastard? I think the real bastard is your adopted daughter, Qin Xue!” Even if this child had never existed, she would never allow anyone to insult him like this. Whoever dared to disobey, she would definitely retaliate.
“Sister, how can you say that about me? I’ve always respected you.” Qin Xue had cultivated good acting skills and instantly cried.
“Alright! Qin Ran, since you don’t care about your family, there’s no need for me to save your face.” Xing Li gritted her teeth and said, “Xiao Xue, your sister already said that about you, yet you’re still thinking about wearing a best friend necklace with her!”
Hearing Xing Li defend her, Qin Xue cried even harder. “I was too stupid. I never thought that I was a bastard in my sister’s heart.”
“Don’t cry, Xiao Xue. Mommy will buy the necklace for you. You can wear it with whoever you want. Qin Ran isn’t worthy.” After Xing Li finished speaking, she raised her hand to pay with her phone.
Qin Ran didn’t care if she wore this necklace or not, but since Su Nan liked it just now, she would definitely keep it for her friend. “First come, first served. We clearly took a fancy to this necklace first. We want this necklace. I see who dares to snatch it!”
