Chapter 12: The Ungrateful Daughter is Going to Make Trouble

“Anan, you’ve been out for so long, look at you…” you’ve lost weight.

Liu Cailan didn’t finish the sentence.

Shen Anan hadn’t lost weight; she looked even plumper.

Before, she was so thin that her face was all sunken in, looking unfortunate, but now, she looks a bit like a beauty.

Could she have eaten better working as a nanny than at home?

That shouldn’t be the case.

It seems she just blossomed as she grew older.

“It must be hard working for other people, right? It’s better at home, isn’t it?”

After saying this, she wiped her hands and stood up.

“Mom has said, although you’re not my biological daughter, I still treat you as my own!

Now that you’re earning money outside, you know it’s not easy for your parents to raise you, right? Your temper… you just wouldn’t give your job to Xiuxiu, and you ended up breaking ties with the family!

But who cares, I’m your mother! I don’t blame you!”

Liu Cailan wore a look of heartfelt concern.

“Have you received your salary? Give it to Mom first, to prevent you from spending it recklessly. Mom will save it for you, and use it to prepare your dowry later!

Don’t worry, even if I’m not your real mother, I’ll make sure you marry well!”

After saying that, she grabbed Shen Anan’s hand.

She had already planned it all out.

Shen Anan would earn at least ten or twenty yuan a month, right?

She would use that money to buy Yaozu some new clothes, and save the rest for his tuition!

Look, raising a daughter does have its benefits.

She would also find a way to get Xiuxiu’s salary, and with her husband’s recent salary increase after becoming a regular employee, she would receive three salaries a month. Saving it up, it would be enough for Yaozu’s wedding!

The more Liu Cailan thought about it, the happier she became.

But the next moment, she heard Shen Anan say in a low voice, “I didn’t get my salary, and I’m not working as a nanny anymore.”

“What do you mean?!”

Liu Cailan was stunned.

Why?

“Your biological daughter, after her last report failed, she reported the family I worked for as a nanny. Now I can’t work there anymore, I’m going to the countryside, are you happy?”

Shen Anan spoke word by word.

She wanted to see a little bit of heartache and concern on her mother’s face.

Unfortunately,

There wasn’t any.

Liu Cailan’s face only showed shock.

“So you’re going to the countryside now, but shouldn’t they pay you for this month’s work?!”

She only cared about Shen Anan’s salary for this month.

She didn’t care about what Shen Xiuxiu had done, or about Shen Anan being forced to go to the countryside.

“I’ve said it before, if I go to the countryside, I won’t let Shen Xiuxiu continue working at the supply and marketing cooperative.”

Shen Anan had given up.

On her adoptive mother.

The last bit of hope vanished at that moment.

Since she couldn’t have a better life, Shen Xiuxiu shouldn’t expect to keep her job!

“You—you’re so selfish! Xiuxiu has a good job, why would you ruin it?!”

Liu Cailan glared at Shen Anan.

Her face was full of hatred!

Yes, hatred!

In her opinion, Shen Anan was an ungrateful daughter. If she hadn’t been mistakenly adopted, she should have stayed in the countryside her whole life. What’s the big deal about going back to the countryside?

Now, just because she’s returning to her original life in the countryside, she’s going to ruin Xiuxiu’s job?

Selfish!

Vicious!

It’s simply unconscionable!

“I’m selfish?”

Shen Anan scoffed.

“The job is the one I passed the exam for! I gave it to her, and she repeatedly reported me, forcing me to go to the countryside. Who is selfish, me or her?!”

At this moment, she finally realized that Liu Cailan was impossible to reason with!

Before coming to the Shen family, she was still thinking that if her mother showed even a little bit of sympathy for her, if she was willing to scold Shen Xiuxiu for her,

She would have swallowed her anger and wouldn’t have bothered Shen Xiuxiu.

But no.

She even blamed everything on Shen Anan!

Calling her selfish, then she would be selfish for them!

Shen Anan directly threw off Liu Cailan’s hand and went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative in the north of the city.

After she left, Liu Cailan suddenly reacted.

Oh no!

That ungrateful daughter is going to make trouble!

She had to hurry and stop her!

But she was too late; Shen Anan had already boarded the bus.

She didn’t catch up.

Oh no!

Liu Cailan anxiously slapped her legs.

Xiuxiu reported her, fine, but if she had done nothing wrong, why would the report be successful?

She even blamed it on Xiuxiu? And she’s going to make trouble about her job?

How could Shen Anan be so vicious!

Shen Anan arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative and silently queued.

Most people were at work, so there weren’t many people buying things at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Soon, she was at the front of the line.

Shen Xiuxiu was chatting casually with a male colleague when she saw someone buying something, she asked without looking up, “What do you want?”

However, the other person didn’t speak.

Confused, she slowly turned her head.

And met a pair of hateful eyes.

Looking closely, it was… Shen Anan?!

Why is she here?!

Shen Xiuxiu felt a bad premonition.

“Do you have something to say to me? Let’s go outside and talk.”

She tried to smile.

Unfortunately, Shen Anan didn’t bother to respond.

She directly said to the male colleague beside her, “I want to see your manager, I want to… report someone!”

Report someone?!

For a moment, everyone’s attention turned to Shen Anan.

Report who?

Is there some gossip to watch?

The people queuing to buy things immediately stopped worrying and surrounded her, curiously watching.

Shen Xiuxiu gritted her teeth anxiously.

“Shen Anan, what are you trying to do?!”

She lowered her voice.

“What am I trying to do? You can report me, can’t I report you?”

Shen Anan finished speaking, then loudly said to the people around her, “I want to report this comrade named Shen Xiuxiu!”

Hearing this, a few saleswomen who didn’t get along with Shen Xiuxiu’s eyes lit up.

One of them quickly ran upstairs to find the manager!

They had long disliked Shen Xiuxiu, and finally, she was going to be punished!

The male colleague’s face darkened.

“Comrade, why are you reporting Xiu… our saleswoman?”

He had been pursuing Shen Xiuxiu for so long, and he was about to succeed, how could he allow someone to bully his woman?

“Are you the manager?”

Shen Anan directly asked back.

The male colleague’s face turned pale.

“I… although I’m not the manager, I’m one of the most senior salespersons here. You can tell me your problem.

We can talk in the office. This is a place for buying and selling things, don’t affect everyone else’s shopping!”

The male colleague tried to blame Shen Anan for disturbing everyone.

Who knew that an old lady immediately shouted, “What’s the big deal, it won’t take long! Little girl, just say it here, we’ll help you!”

The crowd echoed—

“Yes, just say it here!”

“Why hide? Afraid of people knowing something they shouldn’t?”

…

They were discussing noisily.

Those who came to the supply and marketing cooperative at this time were not at work, so they just did housework and gossiped.

Rarely seeing such a big scene, how could they not watch?

The male colleague didn’t know what to say.

Just then, the manager hurried over.

At a glance, he recognized Shen Anan.

The top scorer in the exam for this position, how could he forget her?

When Shen Xiuxiu came to work, he thought something was wrong, but she said Shen Anan gave her the job, and Shen Anan didn’t come later, so he didn’t care.

Now she’s here to report her, could it be…

“Hello, manager, this comrade Shen Xiuxiu stole my job. If you don’t believe me, you can check the exam papers, the signature section should be Shen Anan, not Shen Xiuxiu!”

Shen Anan’s words were like a thunderbolt from the blue.

The onlookers were boiling!

My god! Big news!
