Chapter 276 - 115 Our Departure is Only Temporary_3
Mrs. Qian’s face finally showed a smile. While saying, "Why are you doing this? How much can a child eat?" she stretched out her hand and took the money.
Qian Rouxuan rolled her eyes inwardly. Her mother had always been like this. Only money could earn her a good attitude. Back then, if she hadn’t had money on hand, her mother wouldn’t have bothered traveling to the United States under the pretense of taking care of her during her postpartum month.
Thankfully, there were other hired nannies at that time who could help care for her child. Otherwise, expecting anything from her mother? That would have been utterly foolish. Before returning to China, her mother wrung quite a lot of money out of her. In the end, that money was just spent on her son.
Whatever she thought inwardly wasn’t important; Qian Rouxuan maintained a smile on her face. "Isn’t my elder brother and sister-in-law here too? John is here, and it wouldn’t be good to disturb them. Buying some good food is the least I can do!"
Mrs. Qian was pleased upon hearing this, her chatter flowing: "John is quite well-behaved, but your brother and sister-in-law, as you know, have had a tough life! They failed twice with IVF; their days at home are truly hard to bear!"
These same old laments were things Qian Rouxuan had heard too many times before. Seeing that John was settled, she quickly found an excuse to leave.
Walking out of the somewhat run-down apartment building, she turned back to look at the fourth floor window of her home, her heart swelling with bitterness. Sometimes she deeply resented why she had to be born into this family.
At the same time, she envied Li Si even more. Her background was worse than hers—no parents—yet now she had managed to secure the Leng family’s favor.
How was she any worse than Li Si? No matter from which angle, wasn’t she better than Li Si?
With a sigh, she sat in her car, hesitating for a moment before seemingly making up her mind and dialing a number.
