Chapter 125 - 125 Change the Name
125 Change the Name
Zhao Hongwei was not even forty years old, and Xiao Meili was in her thirties, but his face was more beautiful than any woman in the residence. Time did not seem to have left any traces on his face, and instead, he had a more mature charm.
“Miss Jiang Xi, it must have been hard on you to come all the way here. I’ve troubled you these days. There’s nothing good in the mansion, but I hope you don’t mind. ” As she spoke, Xiao Meili took off a blood-red bangle from her wrist. The bangle was crystal clear and priceless. It could be considered a meeting gift for Jiang Xi.
“The gift is light but the intention is heavy, I don’t mind.” Jiang Xi’s rudeness made Xiao Meili so angry that her throat tightened. Tsk, if it were not for the empress, she would have killed Jiang Xi long ago! She did not expect that they would have the chance to meet again after more than a decade. However, things were different now. Even if the crown prince found out, she did not feel guilty at all. Xiao Meili looked at Zhao Panpan’s beautiful face and saw that it was even more beautiful than her own. Her lips curved slightly.
“Miss Jiang Xi, you’re really interesting. It seems that our residence will be more lively in the future. Miss Jiang Xi, do you still remember me?” Zhao Panpan had just come out of the palace today. She had dressed up to enter the palace. Her face was like a peach flower and her eyes were watery. If one was not careful, they would be attracted to her.
Jiang Xi nodded. Of course she remembered Zhao Panpan.
“We’re sisters from now on. You lived in Happy Village, and I used to live in Happy Town. Your name is Jiang Xi, and my nickname was Xixi.” Zhao Panpan’s fingers turned white as she looked at Jiang Xi and said, word for word.
Madam Zhu saw Zhao Panpan’s expression and immediately laughed,”It’s all fate. Our Miss Panpan will enter the palace in the future. If she does, it’s not appropriate for both of their nicknames to be called Xixi. It’s also not appropriate to change Miss Panpan’s name given her identity. I’ll have to make Jiang Xi suffer.”
With that, Zhao Panpan’s eyes lit up. She had saved the crown prince, and now, she had used this opportunity to get to where she was today. She would not allow any mistakes! The empress was too soft-hearted, saying that she was afraid that the crown prince would blame her when he found out the truth. However, how could the crown prince know about the past?
At this moment, Zhao Panpan glanced at Madam Zhu. Madam Zhu was delighted. She had guessed correctly. Zhao Panpan was a generous person on the surface, but she was selfish and overbearing on the inside. How could she tolerate Jiang Xi, a country bumpkin, using her nickname? Moreover, Jiang Xi was Zhao Ruifeng’s future wife. Everyone in the mansion knew that Zhao Panpan and Zhao Ruifeng had always been at odds with each other.
When Zhao zyingying heard this, her face suddenly turned green. “How can you change the name that her parents gave her? How can Jiang Xi lose her name just because of her marriage?”
Just as everyone was wondering if Zhao Yingying would dare to talk back, Jiang Xi raised his head and said, “Other than me, no one else is worthy of this name. If you know what’s good for you, you can change your name.” When she spoke, she looked like it was a matter of course. Zhao Panpan was so angry that she clenched her fists and her eyes suddenly became sharp.
“How audacious!” Xiao Meili slammed the table, and her smiling face instantly darkened.
“Wow, you’re just like an old witch in the village. You can change your face as you wish. Jiang Xi, you’d better not marry. I’ll take care of you.” Jiang Shan secretly tugged at Jiang Xi’s hand. His sister’s future mother-in-law was too scary. Jiang Xi would definitely be bullied in the future.
Jiang Xi chuckled. Who else could be worthy of this name except her? This woman, Zhao Panpan, had taken her identity and even wanted her name. She was really tired of living!
The atmosphere was tense. Xiao Meili was now the head of the Zhao family. Ever since she had joined the family, no one in the house had dared to talk back to her. At this time, Jiang Xi, who was just a country bumpkin, actually dared to go against her. Xiao Meili was furious.
“Miss Jiang Xi, you’re from a small family. Although the Zhao family has a high threshold, we don’t look down on you. However, Jing City was not like the countryside. The waters were very deep, and right and wrong were not up to you to decide. Let’s not talk about the fact that you will marry into our Zhao family in the future and be my future daughter-in-law and have to call Me ‘mother’. If you don’t know how to appreciate favors, I’m afraid that it will be difficult for you to survive in Jing City!” Xiao Meili snorted and looked at Jiang Xi coldly. She should not have spared Jiang Xi’s life back then!
