The True Heiress And The Fake Heiress Ended Up Together - Chapter 23
Shen Jin Yu was hungry.
But he still didn’t want to enter the dirty house.
He couldn’t believe that such a place existed in the world. He knew his family was very wealthy, and correspondingly, there would be poor people in the world, but seeing it with his own eyes was still incredible.
The young master’s germ phobia flared up, and he just didn’t want to go in: “Why don’t you just bring the food out?”
As he spoke, his stomach rumbled.
Ji Han was good-natured enough to actually go and discuss it with the host family.
Would the host family be happy about that? They were kind enough to let them eat, and they were still being picky! The hostess immediately put on a stern face: “Eat it or don’t eat it!”
Ji Han was met with a slammed door, but he wasn’t surprised.
Who doesn’t have a temper? He turned back to look at Shen Jin Yu, realizing that he himself didn’t, or rather, didn’t dare to.
This was the young master of the Shen family. The company had repeatedly cautioned him to take good care of him. If Shen Jin Yu was dissatisfied with anything, Ji Han wouldn’t have any future resources.
With his prominent family background, Shen Jin Yu would try to get rid of anyone he disliked right from the start.
If it weren’t for the director saying that the contract had already been signed and he couldn’t be kicked out…
Ji Han felt exhausted: “It’s all like this here. If you don’t want to go in, you’ll have to go hungry.”
After saying that, he heard Shen Jin Yu’s stomach rumble again.
The two had been dawdling for a long time. Everyone else they encountered had already eaten and was enjoying happy conversations with their host families. Only he was burdened by the arranged young guest and hadn’t eaten yet.
What was there to be picky about! Ji Han was starting to get angry too.
Shen Jin Yu pursed his lips: “I want to find Qin Mianmian.”
He wasn’t willing to go into a house like this, and Qin Mianmian would definitely be even less willing. She must still be hungry now!
Shen Jin Yu was extremely worried.
Ji Han was speechless.
At the middle-aged woman’s house.
Qin Mianmian clapped her hands: “Little cake! Little cake!”
The cream was barely successful, and the rest continued to be a struggle.
To make a perfect little cake in a rural earthen stove, even a master chef would have to try repeatedly, especially without tools and with flour that wasn’t low-gluten.
But after Jian Ying An finished, it actually looked like something.
Jiang An Yan watched Jian Ying An make the little cake with her own eyes.
She exclaimed in admiration: “Wow, you’re really amazing!”
Thinking that she was not as capable as a six-year-old child, Jiang An Yan felt that this program was a bit of a loss.
After the show aired, she would be seen by the audience as a complete waste of space.
Her rivals would use this point to mock her.
She was so embarrassed!
Qin Mianmian didn’t understand Jiang An Yan’s mood; she wasn’t a girl group member. She was Qin Mianmian, who was very well taken care of by Jian Ying An!
So, she proudly shared the little cake: “My sister made it, isn’t she amazing?”
Jiang An Yan sincerely replied: “Amazing.”
She took a bite of the little cake. She had thought that since it was barely put together, the taste wouldn’t be very good, but the moment it entered her mouth, Jiang An Yan was completely conquered.
What loss? Try this little cake, it’s delicious!
This trip was not a loss!
Qin Mianmian tasted it in small bites, showing very good manners.
She sat in the courtyard, enjoying the sun and eating the little cake, feeling happier than on any previous day.
The tabby cat circled around, found nothing, and went to beg the human cub for food.
Qin Mianmian was a good child. She shared with the cameraman, with Jiang An Yan, and also with this chubby tabby cat. She tore off a small piece of cake and handed it to the tabby cat.
The country tabby cat wasn’t picky and immediately bit the cake.
The girl and the cat ate like that.
Jian Ying An was tidying up the kitchen when the middle-aged woman returned. She looked at Jian Ying An anxiously and quickly said that she would take care of the cleaning.
What a joke! Jian Ying An was just a child; how could she be allowed to work at the stove!
Those adults outside were truly something, the middle-aged woman grumbled as she snatched the bowls and chopsticks from Jian Ying An’s hand.
Jian Ying An didn’t insist, politely said thank you, and then left the kitchen.
She saw Qin Mianmian teasing the tabby cat in the courtyard.
The tabby cat was really fat, and it was teased until it rolled on the ground, exposing its soft belly for Qin Mianmian to pet. Qin Mianmian tentatively reached out, and finally placed her hand on the cat’s belly.
The tabby cat was not afraid of strangers and even purred.
Jiang An Yan hadn’t helped at all and felt a bit frustrated.
Seeing Jian Ying An come out, she couldn’t help but ask: “You can actually cook. How did you learn? And that was an earthen stove. I don’t even know how to make a fire…”
Jian Ying An had started the fire, and she also watched over the flames while cooking.
In contrast, Jiang An Yan really hadn’t helped with anything.
Those who can participate in the show are city kids; never mind cooking, just not causing trouble is enough.
Yet, Jian Ying An cooked so well, and she used an earthen stove.
Jiang An Yan thought: She’s only six years old.
Shouldn’t a six-year-old child be like Qin Mianmian?
Innocent, pure, and full of vitality.
A little girl like a white, glutinous rice ball, with clear and bright eyes, clever and lovable.
Jian Ying An was also good-looking; her features were lovely, and it was obvious that her parents had good genes.
But so what? If a child is this independent, it’s likely because her parents didn’t take good care of her. Jiang An Yan frowned, feeling very unfond of Jian Ying An’s parents. As parents, they lacked all sense of responsibility…
How dangerous it was for a child to learn these things!
If they weren’t capable of raising a child, why did they have one!
Jiang An Yan saw Jian Ying An’s gaze fixed gently on Qin Mianmian, seemingly not having heard her words.
She couldn’t help but feel envious.
With a sister like this, Qin Mianmian must be incredibly happy.
Jian Ying An withdrew her gaze: “You were speaking, I heard you.”
Jiang An Yan was startled: “Oh, I just asked how you learned to cook…”
Jian Ying An secretly curled her lips.
She made sure Qin Mianmian couldn’t hear before leaning closer to Jiang An Yan and saying: “Because my parents left me in the countryside since I was little, not caring if I lived or died, and they only came to find me this year.”
Jiang An Yan’s expression was stunned.
Jian Ying An spoke, pretending to be sad, distressed, yet strong.
While speaking, she also kept an eye on Qin Mianmian.
She was a little worried that Qin Mianmian would hear, but then she thought, wasn’t showing off a skill in front of the camera specifically for this moment?
Many viewers watched this show in her previous life, and there wouldn’t be much less this time around.
She wanted all viewers to know! How horrible her parents were! To abandon a six-year-old child and force her to learn to survive on her own!
Jian Ying An wanted to pave the way for the future.
But she couldn’t let Qin Mianmian hear.
Qin Mianmian was actually very meticulous and sensitive; she already knew a lot of things.
The last time in the room, Qin Mianmian had said many sad things that made Jian Ying An feel very uneasy. She couldn’t let Qin Mianmian be sad again; even if she had to hide it, she would hide it until she was a teenager!
But Jian Ying An wouldn’t let the Qin couple off easy.
Regardless of whether the couple watched the program when it aired, saying it out loud was always right!
Jian Ying An wouldn’t sell pity; she always carried things on her own.
But saying these things out loud suddenly made her feel lighter. She wanted to expose the true faces of the Qin couple in front of everyone! So Jian Ying An acted with genuine emotion.
Things that had actually happened sounded particularly real when spoken.
She was only six years old. If her parents hadn’t truly abandoned her, where would she have learned to cook? That was a rural earthen stove! It wasn’t as simple as boiling water or making instant noodles in the city!
Jian Ying An’s words were very convincing.
The cameraman and Jiang An Yan were stunned.
They had a guess, but they never expected these parents to be so inhumane!
Jian Ying An: “They left me with a nanny, who played Mahjong outside all day long. It was common for her not to come home for days. When there was no rice at home, I could only knead dough with flour. I wasn’t very good at first, and the result was very unappetizing, but being full was more important than anything.”
“Even if the nanny came back and hit me, and then didn’t give me food, I told myself that the future would get better…”
“It was really hard at first; I couldn’t even lift the wok spatula…”
Jiang An Yan: “That’s too much! Your parents are simply inhuman!”
