268~ Miss Song~
Song Siya, who was her mother from her past life. Unfortunately, she was a woman who would disregard everything for the sake of profit, including her own flesh and blood.
Thinking of her mother after her reincarnation... the difference between the two could only be said to be from completely different dimensions.
One willingly went to her death to protect her, while the other endlessly exploited her.
She had already severed all ties with her family in her past life long ago. She just hadn't expected Song Siya to suddenly come looking for her now.
No matter what reason she had for seeking her out, she wouldn't provide any help.
"Are you my son's friend?"
"You are?"
"Oh, I'm Xu Hanhai's mother. I heard you're my son's friend, so I came..."
"So you came to ask me for money?"
"Ah, yes, yes... No!"
Song Siya, who hadn't been able to react in time, suddenly realized that this Miss Mo in front of her already knew the purpose of her visit?
"Even after his death, you still want to squeeze out the last remaining value from him?"
"Who told you such nonsense? When have I ever done such a thing?"
Song Siya furrowed her brows and questioned.
"Xu Hanhai."
"That little brat told you that?"
"Please don't insult my friend in front of me, thank you."
"Miss, the tea is ready."
"Mm."
The Little Princess tapped the table a few times, indicating that the tea could be set down and she could leave.
Everything went as she had thought. Only she and Song Siya remained in the living room.
"Please."
Although she greatly disliked Song Siya, her identity as a member of Glaze Nation's royal family prevented her from cursing directly or having Maid Xiao Xi throw her out.
She wanted to thoroughly humiliate this woman who had backstabbed her for profit in her past life and then abandoned her, subsequently continuing to extract her value bit by bit, and even now after her death still wanted to drain the last bit of value from her.
"I heard you're a noble who returned from overseas?"
"Yes, does Miss Song have any questions about this?"
"Which country's nobility?"
"Great Britain."
"Great Britain?"
That was a country where nobility was very prosperous. So it seemed this Chinese noble who returned from Great Britain had absolute status and position?
That meant she could rake in a lot, a lot of money!!!
"How long have you known my son?"
"Not long, about two years."
That was around the time in her past life when she was discarded after being used up.
......
Damn it! How could she throw her away before completely draining her value!? If she had known that bastard she gave birth to could actually befriend a Great Britain noble, she should have kept her around a bit longer and established connections first!
"So what do you think of my son?"
"Pretty good, it's just his family that's not so great."
His family's not so great?
Thinking about it, that made sense. A noble from Great Britain finding her slightly wealthy ordinary family inadequate was quite normal. They were nobles after all!
"I'm referring to you parents not being any good."
The Little Princess said disdainfully.
"We..."
The parents aren't any good?
"Miss Mo can say I'm not a good mother, but isn't Miss Mo's appearance and tone a bit too disrespectful?"
"Is there a problem with what I said? If it weren't for you people, would he have ended up in such a state? If it weren't for you people, he would have already achieved his ideals. I think there's nothing wrong with what I said. Is there a problem with saying you're no good?"
If it weren't for this woman and that father who completely didn't care about her, how would her past life have ended with her dying alone from overwork in that rental apartment without anyone knowing?
"Ring ring ring~"
"Hello?"
Temporarily ending her conversation with Song Siya, the Little Princess answered the phone.
"Hello? Is this Miss Mo?"
"Mm."
"Oh, we're from the funeral company. I'd like to ask what kind of coffin Miss Mo is planning to purchase? We have many models here..."
"Just the most expensive ebony one. I hope my friend can have some dignity when being laid to rest."
Even though it had rotted and been gnawed on until only some tissue and skeletal remains were left, and had no real value to herself, in the end it was still her past life.
Giving her past life a dignified burial, there was no problem with that, right?
Anyway, the Empress could produce however much money was needed. If there wasn't enough, she could just randomly take out an accessory from her storage space, and it would be enough to exchange for money that ordinary people would take over ten years to earn.
Moreover, she also had a Magic Space Ring in her possession that likewise stored many high-value accessories.
"Ebony..."
Ebony was bog wood, right? That priceless timber?
"Ah, Miss Mo, it's like this. Our ebony coffins are divided into five grades. You see..."
"I want the best one. Money is not an issue. Just get me the best. As for the design... carve a phoenix and a dragon on it. Everything else is up to you."
Anyway, no matter what, the best would be right.
"Alright! I'll handle it right away!"
The receptionist seemed to realize this was a big order from which she could get a lot of commission, and immediately ran off to handle things for the Little Princess...
"Does Miss Mo have such a good relationship with my son?"
"I suppose."
Casually brushing her off, the Little Princess continued the conversation.
"Also, no matter what, the coffin lid and coffin body must fit together seamlessly."
"Yes, yes, yes! Rest assured, Miss Mo, we'll definitely arrange everything perfectly for you!"
......
"Miss Mo, I think since my son and you were so compatible, why not meet his older brother?"
"Xu..."
The Little Princess was about to call out that name, but when it reached her lips she swallowed it back. She was afraid saying that name would be too inauspicious.
It was that guy who made her past life's father completely disregard her, and her mother continuously backstab her...
The grievances suffered in her past life, the source of all calamities, were all because of that guy!
"No thanks. What I found interesting was Xu Hanhai's soul. There can't possibly be a second Xu Hanhai in this world."
As she spoke, she deliberately controlled her tone to be somewhat lower.
"So, could I trouble Miss Song not to compare my friend with other people anymore?"
She knew very clearly those little calculations Song Siya was making in her heart. Wasn't it just that she had her eyes on her current wealth, wanting to introduce that guy to her, taking the opportunity to bring them together, so she herself could soar high and become Great Britain nobility?
Unfortunately, she wasn't any Great Britain noble, and she wasn't that naive either.
"I apologize... But is Miss Mo really not going to consider it? My other son is much more outstanding!"
"Outstanding...? Are you referring to the kind of waste who climbed up by stealing his younger brother's achievements, while actually being completely worthless himself? Don't think I don't know what you've been doing all these years! Miss Song."
"My goodness, what are you saying, Miss Mo? How could I possibly harm my own flesh and blood?"
