Chapter 2

Li Shuo stood aside, watching in shock as his usually taciturn sister suddenly erupted in charisma, feeling extremely happy.

When her name was suddenly called, she immediately responded with excitement: “Okay, sister, wait!”

In a blink of an eye, Li Shuo took out the experimental materials from the kitchen.

“Beeswax is a special resin that sinks in water but floats in salt. Fakes made of plastic will sink in either salt water or fresh water.”

After saying that, Li Mo poured salt into the clean water, stirred it evenly, and then threw in two strings of beeswax.

The beeswax that Bai Jinzi gave her sank to the bottom of the cup, but Bai Zhibo’s beads, which were obviously heavier, floated up and would not sink no matter how hard he pressed.

Bai Jinzi shook her head in shock and sadness. “How could this happen? The boss clearly told me it was genuine. Why would he lie to me?”

Bai Zhibo was so embarrassed he was speechless when he saw this, but Du Huaizhou jumped out, fished out his mobile phone from his waist bag, and said angrily, “I know the owner of Fujintang. I’ll call him. We must get justice!”

“But I was able to buy it a year ago!”

“Don’t worry, that old man is very clever. He can find out everything that was bought ten years ago. I have checked it.”

Bai Jinzi: …

Seeing that he was about to make a phone call, she cried, “But…but I didn’t go through the boss’s hands!”

Du Huaizhou:?

“At that time, a woman said that she bought her beeswax at Fujintang and wanted to exchange it with the owner. I saw that the beeswax she had was of beautiful quality, so I bought it.”

Du Huaizhou:?

“Shh~”

Li Mo couldn’t help but sneer, “When you gave me the gift just now, you said you bought it specially for me at Fujin Hall. Then, when questioned, you changed your story and said you bought it a year ago and gave it to me. One moment you swore it was an authentic item from Fujin Hall, and the next moment you said it was a second-hand item from someone else. You really never lack for pocket money, and you never buy fakes. You’re a genuine and sincere daughter of a wealthy family!”

Seeing that Bai Jinzi’s face was already red enough to drip blood, she wished she could dig a hole in the ground to crawl into, but Li Mo was still slapping her face wildly.

“Bai Jinzi, you’re such a disgusting person. I didn’t ask you to give me a gift, so why are you being so hypocritical? I’m so embarrassed for you that I could dig out a three-bedroom apartment with my toes.”

Where had Bai Jinzi ever heard such sharp and sarcastic words?

She was already so sad that she burst into tears, but Du Huaizhou added: “What do you mean by being both a role and a role?”

Thinking that this is 1993, Li Mo patiently popularized the science: “I have to be, and also want to erect a memorial archway.”

“Li Mo, you’re going too far! How can you say that to Jinzi?” Du Huaizhou was angry.

“Did I say something wrong?”

Du Huaizhou was so angry that he was breathing heavily, but he didn’t know how to refute.

Bai Jinzi’s face was smashed and she was extremely angry, but she could only lower her head and cry in humiliation.

Damn Li Mo, not only did he rob her of her life, he also humiliated her!

Why don’t you just die?

“Momo, Daddy is here to take you home today. We felt so guilty and heartbroken when we lost you back then, but now, God has been merciful and we’ve finally found you. Please give Mom and Daddy a chance to make it up to you and come back to the Bai family with us, okay?”

Li Mo looked at Bai Zhibo with a gloomy gaze, which made Bai Zhibo feel uneasy.

He immediately changed his target and stuffed the bags of gifts in his hands into Li Mo’s adoptive mother Zhao Linya with an eager look on his face.

“Father Zhao, thank you for raising Li Mo over the years.”

Zhao Linya was startled and immediately declined, saying, “No, no.”

“Why not?”

Seeing them struggling to the limit, Li Mo walked over, took the things from Bai Zhibo’s hand, and put them inside. After coming out, he kicked all three of them out.

Facing Bai Zhibo’s eager gaze, she fiercely questioned, “For a gift that can fit in two hands, you want my mother to sell her daughter?”

Bai Zhibo quickly denied: “No, this is just to thank your adoptive mother…”

“Now that you’ve expressed your gratitude, let’s go!”

“But I’m here to take you home. Momo, just come back with me.” Bai Zhibo begged.

“It’s already sloppy enough that you came alone, and you even brought Bai Jinzi and Du Huaizhou to disgust me. Don’t you know that Du Huaizhou was pestering me half a year ago, telling me that he liked me and wanted to be my boyfriend, but now he’s secretly having an affair with your beloved adopted daughter?”

“ah?!”

Bai Zhibo glared and looked at Du Huaizhou.
