Chapter 520: 142: Lin Fang and her daughter’s dream of a wealthy life is shattered_1
Beijing University is a key project 985 school, and with Chang Yue’s current grades, there should be no problem.
Hearing this, Shangguan Dehui nodded in satisfaction.
Being a university professor, he liked students with excellent scores.
Lin Fang was very satisfied with Chang Yue’s performance. After being around Shangguan Dehui for so long, Lin Fang knew that his approval of Chang Yue had been granted.
The car was swift and in no time, they arrived at the Shangguan’s residence.
The Shangguan’s house was a real mansion, in front of it was a magnificent villa, and behind lay a line of servant rooms.
In order to enter the villa’s main entrance, one needs to cross an artificial pond, which wasn’t too big, around twenty to thirty meters wide. A narrow bridge crossed over the pond that was home to water lilies, and beneath the lily pads, koi carp of red and white darted back and forth.
Crossing this stone bridge, you could see two majestic stone lions standing at the front of the villa.
When had Chang Yue ever experienced such grandeur? Even on TV, she had never seen anything like it!
Just the thought that the villa, the fish pond, and these giant stone lions will all be hers one day elated her beyond measure, and she couldn’t suppress her smile.
Lin Fang was also visiting the Shangguan’s house for the first time. Despite mentally preparing herself beforehand, she was still unable to control her shock!
The Shangguans were freaking rich!
But Lin Fang managed to keep her emotions under control, striving not to resemble a naive countrywoman and to avoid becoming a joke, like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
“Xiaoyue.” Lin Fang quietly grabbed Chang Yue’s hand and whispered a reminder.
Chang Yue, being younger, couldn’t control her facial expressions as strictly as Lin Fang, but after Lin Fang’s warning, she quickly composed herself and stopped glancing around impertinently.
“This way.” Shangguan Dehui took the lead, unaware of the interaction between the mother and daughter.
“Alright.” Lin Fang replied with a smile.
As they approached the main entrance, a servant greeted them and took the car keys and coat from Shangguan Dehui, “Sir, you’re back.”
Shangguan Dehui nodded and introduced, “This is Lin Fang, and this is her daughter Chang.”
The servant respectfully greeted them.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Fang and Chang Yue were both slightly taken aback; this was their first time interacting with a servant.
And to have a servant greet them with such respect.
The superior feeling was quite satisfying!
Chang Yue didn’t know how to respond, but Lin Fang quickly replied, “Hello.”
Although the person was just a servant, she was visiting the Shangguan’s house for the first time and didn’t want to leave a poor impression.
Leading them deeper into the house, Shangguan Dehui showed them around the grand and glittering mansion, resembling an ancient palace.
At this point, Lin Fang couldn’t contain her astonishment anymore and was on the verge of exclaiming in wonder.
Chang Yue had her eyes wide open, not missing a single corner.
The villa was enormous, and it took a while for Shangguan Dehui to lead them to the main hall.
There were a few people sitting on the sofa in the main hall.
Seeing Shangguan Dehui bring people in, Shangguan Xi immediately welcomed them and said, “Dad, Aunt Lin. This must be Chang Yue, right?”
Lin Fang quickly replied, “Xiaoyue, this is your sister Xi.”
Chang Yue came forward and grabbed Shangguan Xi’s hand, “Sister Xi, my mom has long told me how beautiful you are, but you’re even more beautiful in person than I imagined.”
Who doesn’t enjoy being complimented?
Especially for being pretty.
Shangguan Xi had a quite good first impression of her potential sister, “Chang Yue, you’re very beautiful too!”
In fact, Chang Yue was indeed a beauty; with her standard almond-shaped eyes, oval face, and slender figure.
“Furong, Sister Xu, this is Lin Fang, and her daughter, Chang Yue.” Shangguan Dehui went on to introduce Lin and Chang to the two women on the couch.
One of them was Shangguan Furong.
The other was Xu Fen’s older sister, Xu Lian.
When Shangguan Dehui remarried, as an aunt to both Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi, Xu Lian certainly had to be present to oversee things.
Some stepmothers harbor bad intentions.
Moreover, the Shangguans were such a renowned family, she couldn’t let others deprive her niece and nephew of what should be theirs.
Xu Lian examined Lin Fang openly.
Indeed, from the moment the mother-daughter duo entered the hall, she had begun to size them up.
How should she put it?
She felt that the mother and daughter had a bit of an unsophisticated aura, as if they wouldn’t fit in high society.
Lin Fang followed behind Shangguan Dehui, exchanging pleasantries.
“Xiaoyue, you just call them Aunt and Aunt Xu.” Shangguan Dehui directed at Chang Yue.
What do you think?
