Chapter 286 - Make Any Difference
"Enjoy your breakfast!" Fu Ling said with a smile as he got up and left, leaving the shocked FangSu by herself.
FangSu thought she didn't hear clearly and had to confirm the breaking news from a servant that came to clear YingPei and Fu Ling's plates.
FangSu lost her appetite immediately. She felt she had swallowed something bitter after receiving the worst news ever.
She hit her palms on the table but it hurt so much that she had to blow on them with a big frown on her face.
"Aish! That bitch!" FangSu cursed in a low tone as she walked out of the dining area. She was so pissed off with the situation and more so, she was unhappy that her mother didn't mention anything to her.
FangSu was thinking of how to get the message across to Bai Jun without knowing that the latter has already seen Fu Hua's post and was shedding tears in her bedroom.
In the Bai House, Bai Jun was shedding tears of pain, anguish, jealousy and envy.. She was so heartbroken when she saw Fu Hua's post.
She couldn't believe that Jia Li has given birth. Who knows what she was thinking before.
Bai Fen tried to comfort her but Bai Jun wasn't ready to listen to her.
"That woman has bewitched brother Hua! She is nothing but a poor woman but she managed to climb the highest ladder in the society!" Bai Jun cried out.
"I've told you to stop crying! I also wished that bitch lost her child but since it didn't happen, I won't kill myself over it." Bai Fen said as she tried to comfort her.
"Mum, you've been telling me not to worry for a long time now until when will that end? What kind of plans do you have for me?!" Bai Jun asked angrily.
"I know you're angry but you should stop screaming. What if someone hears you. I've told you several times not to worry too much about Fu Hua because I already have a solution. That bitch just gave birth to a girl and not a boy. Wait till you get pregnant and give birth to a son for the Fu family and see if they won't make you Fu Hua's wife." Bai Fen said with confidence.
"Mum! The problem is how am I going to cross paths with brother Hua when I can't even get into FJ! My application had been rejected twice now, what do I do?!" Bai Jun cried out.
She has applied to get into FJ twice but she was rejected all those times. She felt unlucky and thought Fu Hua must have ordered it but there was no way Fu Hua would know she wanted to get into FJ, so that possibility was canceled.
"I will help you but you have to rely on your charms when you get into FJ. You have to win over your superiors." Bai Fen advised.
Bai Jun did not look relieved even with her mother's assurance. "Mum, help me get into FJ already! That's the most important aspect. I need to get a foothold there before that bitch joins!"
Bai Fen smiled and patted her hands. "That bitch is nothing compared to you, you don't have to worry too much. I trust you. Fu Hua has still not revealed her identity because he is not proud of her. Once he releases her picture, her identity and family background will be revealed. Do you think Fu Hua would want a taint his name? He is quite a proud young man."
"But look at what is going on the internet. She is already so popular and a lot of attention is on her as everyone is addressing her as 'The Hidden Wife'. Ah! The thought of this is killing me!" Bai Jun said with tears in her eyes.
"Stop crying already. If tears could solve all the problems, would you still be here? Wipe your tears already!" Bai Fen said with a frown. She was starting to get annoyed with the fact that her daughter was weak and kept crying instead of thinking of solutions to climb the ladder of the higher-ups.
Back at the Fu House, FangSu was impatiently waiting for her mother to come back so she could complain about leaving her in the dark.
And when Fu Hee returned, she dragged her to her bedroom and locked the door.
"Why are you in a hurry?" Fu Hee asked with a frown.
"Mum, how could you do this to me? That woman gave birth and you didn't tell me about it!" FangSu ranted.
"How could I have told you about it when I was in a hurry to leave with ChunHua. And you were sleeping by the time. Now that you know about it, does it make any difference?" Fu Hee asked as she went to sit on the bed.
"Mum, how can you be like this! How will Bai Jun feel if she learns of this news?!" FangSu said in an annoyed tone mixed with worry.
Fu Hee immediately shoot her a glare. "I have told you countless times to stay away from the Bai family but you won't listen. Can't you see the situation you're in?"
"The only situation I can see myself in is that I'm about to go crazy! I can't afford to give up helping my best friend get what belongs to her!"
"Is your brother an item that belongs to just anybody? You want to help your friend? Do you know what situation you're in? Your family is against you and you have lost everything. You have fallen out of favor. You've lost everything that took you years to build. Even if you were given 50 years more, you might never be able to recover them because you chose to be a slave to the Bai family. Can't you open your eyes and see what I've seen?!"
Fu Hee really wanted to open her daughter's head and see what was inside. Seeing her grandchild today and not being able to hold her was so painful. She just discovered that she has lost a lot while fighting blindly.
She didn't want her daughter to make the same mistake that she made and end up like her but her efforts were in vain
