Chapter 408 The Hatred Buried in Her Heart Is Too Deep
Justice?
Shi Nuan could only sneer at that word.
Once upon a time, Shi Nuan thought she had a sweet and happy family; her parents were loving and harmonious, they cherished her, and her father’s career was flourishing with her grandfather’s support.
Shi Nuan’s childhood was spent in happiness. Her mother named her "Nu’an," probably reflecting her mindset at that time.
Her mother was a famous debutante in T City, both in looks and temperament, she was impeccable.
She chose a father whose conditions were average at best, and back then, Shi Nuan didn’t think much of it. Isn’t life about following your heart?
Choosing who you love, that’s not wrong!
But it wasn’t until after her mother passed away that she understood, it’s not wrong to choose who you love, but that person must also love you and be worthy of your love!
In the end, her mother chose the wrong person, loved the wrong person, and married the wrong man!
After her mother passed away, Shi Nuan found herself alone, with only a biological father to rely on. She once believed that this father, who had always doted on her, could be relied upon.
But reality proved her wrong.
Just three short months after her mother’s death, her father married Li Guirong, whom he had been involved with for years, brought back a newly-born son, and also brought back Shi Jiaojiao, who was a year older than herself.
From the first day Shi Jiaojiao arrived, she couldn’t stand Shi Nuan, didn’t like her, and wanted to compete with Shi Nuan for everything.
Shi Nuan was young then, and her father’s continuous lack of support repeatedly broke her heart, so she tolerated in many aspects!
She never felt it was out of fear. In fact, she didn’t like Li Guirong and her daughter, even hated them intensely, but since her father liked them, what could she do?
She was utterly helpless.
Shi Nuan was with Shen Zui because she liked him, but she had to admit that when she found out Shi Jiaojiao also liked Shen Zui, it gave her some satisfaction.
All along, it was Shi Jiaojiao who took away her things, made her life difficult, and now it was finally her turn to make Shi Jiaojiao uncomfortable!
Shi Nuan didn’t consider herself a kind person. Her previous two relationships, one with Shen Zui and the other with Song Yichuan,
were both impure and carried her selfishness and scheming.
She knew it was wrong, but the hatred buried in her heart was too deep. This depth had made her forget how to simply love someone!
Even now as she has feelings for Song Yansheng, could anything between them possibly be pure?
Shi Yuanbo said he would get her justice; she didn’t doubt him, but was he helping her because he pitied her as his daughter?
Or because he feared Song Yansheng’s intimidation?
Looking back at all those years, the latter was clearly more prominent!
Shi Nuan responded lightly, and Shi Yuanbo glanced with a smile at Li Guirong beside him.
Li Guirong was fuming inside, but she masked it well, sitting gracefully with an ever-present smile.
Noticing Shi Yuanbo’s gaze, she hurriedly took out a finely packaged box from beside her and smiled, "Nuannuan, I heard you did very well in your thesis defense last week. To congratulate you on your successful graduation, Auntie specially picked out a gift for you. Take a look and see if you like it. If not, you can tell Auntie, and I’ll find some time to take you personally to choose one!"
With that, she handed the box to Shi Nuan, whose expression remained calm and unruffled.
She reached out to take the box, opened it, and inside was a pair of Moyu Bracelets, which, judging by the jade quality and color, should be quite expensive.
