Two hours had passed by the time Jiang Yuyan and the other three came out.

Jiang Muren wiped his sweat. "Wow, I thought I was going to get eaten alive by the old designer. His attitude was terrifying."

Seeing the younger sister's design drafts, he became more excited than when he saw a beautiful woman, and kept trying to grab her to discuss design aspects, which scared them so much that they quickly separated him.

After that, the contract with the garment factory went smoothly. The factory manager even directly asked to buy Jiang Yuyan's design drafts, but she refused.

Jiang Muyi asked疑惑地, "Little sister, why did you sign that contract with the factory manager for the right to use the design draft? That design draft is yours; if they use it too, wouldn't you be losing out big time?"

Jiang Yuyan shook her head. "Second brother, didn't you notice that there's a logo on all my design drafts?"

I plan to use this logo as our trademark from now on. That way, whenever people wear our clothes and see this logo, our store will be the first thing they think of.

Jiang Muxuan pondered, "If that's the case, then not only will the little sister not lose out, but the clothing factory will also promote her for free, and in the end, the little sister will be the one who benefits. You're really amazing, little sister, you thought of this so quickly."

Jiang Yuyan chuckled awkwardly, sweating inwardly. She couldn't very well say that she had seen it all before, but she did know some things.

As they walked, they got hungry and went to a nearby state-run restaurant for a meal.

After finishing their meal, the four of them were about to stroll home when a puzzled shout came from behind them.

"Lin Yuyan?"

At first, Jiang Yuyan didn't notice anyone calling her and continued walking forward. However, after only a few steps, she was pulled forcefully from behind, almost causing her to fall.

If Jiang Muyi hadn't been there to support her on her left, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Jiang Yuyan turned around and met Lin's mother, whose eyes were red with anger.

"Lin Yuyan, it really is you! Why are you in Beijing? Didn't you say you were going back to your biological family? You've lied to us again!"

Jiang Muyi pushed her away, and when he saw his younger sister's bruised arm, a dark look flashed in his eyes.

"Who do you think you are, old woman? My little sister can go wherever she wants, it's none of your business! Do you live by the sea? Why do you have to tell people where they go? What, is Beijing your home? Does everyone need your permission to come here?"

Lin's mother was so angry she almost vomited blood. Ignoring Jiang Muyi, she looked at Jiang Yuyan and sneered.

"Lin Yuyan, you're really something! I've seen through your despicable nature since we were kids. What a piece of trash! It hasn't been long, and you've already hooked up with other men again? This time, three of them?"

"Holy crap—" Jiang Muyi was so angry that he was about to rush over, but Jiang Yuyan pulled him back.

Jiang Yuyan walked up to Lin's mother, who looked a little disheveled, sized her up, and then suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.

"Oh, it's Ms. Lin. I knew it! Who in Beijing could be so rude, spewing nonsense like that?"

However, Ms. Lin, I thought I had witnessed your unreasonable behavior before, but I didn't expect that in such a short time, your unreasonable behavior has become even more egregious.

"Lin Yuyan—"

"Stop!" Jiang Yuyan raised her hand to stop her. "First of all, my name is not Lin Yuyan. I have been called Jiang Yuyan ever since I moved out of your household registration. Please don't call me by the wrong name next time, Ms. Lin."

"Secondly, I don't know who gave you this misconception, Ms. Lin, that I can't come to Beijing. What, did I say before that you're in Beijing, so you'll never set foot in Beijing again?"

Lin's mother: "..."

"No way? Ha, who gave you that sense of superiority, letting you grab me and start yelling at me? Bro, wasn't I just randomly yelled at on the street for no reason? If I report it to the police, can I get some compensation for emotional distress?"

Lin's mother: "..."

Coming to her senses, Lin's mother sneered, "All that talk is just asking for money, isn't it?"

He then took out a few dollars from his bag and threw them at Jiang Yuyan's face. "Take this money. Consider it charity from me. Don't come begging at my doorstep again. You're not welcome here."

After saying that, she turned to leave, but Jiang Muyi grabbed her arm.

"What? Do you want to act like hooligans in the street?" Lin's mother glared at her.

Jiang Yuyan picked up the money from the ground one by one, then took out a stack of money from her bag that was twice as thick as Lin's mother's, and patted Lin's mother's face.

"Ms. Lin, I didn't expect you to be so 'generous.' Giving away just a few dollars? Judging from your smug look just now, anyone who didn't know better would think you'd given away millions!"

"Pfft!" The onlookers burst out laughing.

Lin's mother turned pale, feeling deeply humiliated.

"Ms. Lin, although you are stingy, I am not that kind of stingy person. Here, I added a few dollars for you. With the few dollars you gave me, it should be enough for you to have a few meals. You're welcome."

They stuffed a wad of cash into her hand, and Jiang Yuyan and the others left laughing, leaving Lin's mother nearly driven mad with anger.

When she got home, Jiang Yuyan went to rest. After walking around for half a day, she felt physically and mentally exhausted, and her whole body ached. She didn't know what was wrong.

The three Jiang brothers, left behind, looked at each other in bewilderment. Afterward, they all went to Jiang Muxuan's room, closed the door, and wore serious expressions as if they had something to say.

Jiang Muxuan looked at his two hesitant brothers and sighed, "Speak up, didn't you see everything just now? Say whatever you want to say."

Jiang Muren was the first to speak, "Big brother, who was that old woman just now? She came in and started cursing at my little sister. Her expression and tone made it seem like my little sister was some kind of dirty, shameful thing. I wanted to punch her ugly face when I saw it."

Jiang Muxuan looked at Jiang Muyi.

Jiang Muyi's face darkened. "Is she... my little sister's adoptive mother? Jiang Yue's biological mother? Did she always verbally abuse my little sister like this before?"

Actually, judging from the old woman's cursing attitude, he already had a general idea of ​​the answer, but he wasn't sure.

I thought that since my younger sister was switched at birth with Jiang Yue, she would at least grow up in a wealthy family. As soon as Jiang Yuyan returned to the Jiang family, she showed that she was different from the country folk. Whether it was her temperament or her understanding, she was superior to everyone else.

If all of this was due to the younger sister herself—

Jiang Muxuan turned his wheelchair, opened the window, looked outside, and closed it only after confirming that no one was there.

Turning her wheelchair to face her two younger brothers, she said, "My second brother is right. That woman is my little sister's adoptive mother, and Jiang Yue's biological mother."

"I don't know much either; I heard it from Madam You. My little sister was never liked by that woman since she was little, and she even wanted to strangle her at one point...blah blah blah..."

The group talked for several hours. When they came out, Jiang Muyi and Jiang Muren had red eyes and faintly showed signs of anger.

Unbeknownst to Jiang Yuyan, who was fast asleep, she was having a dream—a strange dream.

In her dream, she was in a sea of ​​fragrant flowers, completely absorbed in the beauty, when suddenly a snake appeared out of nowhere, its mouth wide open, and lunged at her. Startled, Jiang Yuyan instinctively backed away.
