Reborn as a Fake Heiress Marrying the Tycoon novel Chapter 994

Chapter 994: Have a Little Fun in Bed

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At that moment, Lin Miao felt a pang of sympathy for her biological mother, Zhang Mei. After all, being betrayed and losing the man she loved was something Lin Miao could deeply empathize with—it was happening to her too.

Trying to comfort her mother, she said softly, “Mom, don’t get so worked up. What would I do if you made yourself sick? You’re the only family I can truly rely on now.”

As she spoke, Lin Miao’s eyes carried a complex emotion. She couldn’t understand how everything had come to this point.

In her previous life, Gu Zi had married Gong Zhan, and as far as she could recall, there was no incident involving Gu Shan having a mistress, nor did Mo Li ever have a chance to get close to Gong Zhan.

But now, in this lifetime, she was the one married to Gong Zhan, and suddenly, everything had changed. Why?

She clenched her fists unconsciously. She had so little now, with Zhang Mei as the only person standing on her side. Yet Gu Zi—Gu Zi had so much. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

It wasn’t fair. Lin Miao was the one who had been reborn. She should be the protagonist of this story… shouldn’t she?

Meanwhile, Gu Zi and Su Shen were basking in their newfound happiness before heading off to eat.

Su Shen soon left, citing pressing matters at his factory. Gu Zi had just finished her slightly off-schedule meal when the sound of the front door opening caught her attention. Su Jing had returned, her voice carrying through the house long before she was visible.

“Sister-in-law, I’m back! Guess who I ran into today?” Su Jing’s tone was filled with mischief.

Gu Zi stepped out of the kitchen, glancing at her sister-in-law. Su Jing had come back loaded with bags, some filled with her own purchases and others with groceries—meat, eggs, milk, and vegetables.

Gu Zi helped Su Jing carry the bags into the kitchen. “Who did you see?” she asked casually.

Su Jing grinned mischievously. “I ran into Li Li outside the hospital. Guess what? She was holding a gynecology report! She didn’t see me, though. Looked like she was trying to stay low-key—headscarf, big sunglasses, practically sprinting like she was guilty of something.”

Gu Zi froze for a moment, her thoughts flashing back to the instructions she had given Gong Xin earlier. By now, the entire housing compound probably knew about Li Li’s affair with Gu Shan. It wasn’t surprising that Li Li was acting so skittish.

Gu Zi’s brow furrowed slightly as she pieced together the scene. It wasn’t hard to guess their motive. After Su Shen had cut off the pork supply to their housing complex, they had been forced to source meat elsewhere at higher prices.

For these families, who were far from wealthy, the savings they’d enjoyed from buying Su family pork had been significant. Now, having realized the consequences of offending the Su family, they were here to apologize.

As soon as Gu Zi appeared, the crowd perked up. Pressing their faces against the iron gate, they greeted her with exaggerated enthusiasm.

“Gu Zi, dear, we’ve come to apologize for everything that happened earlier. It was all our fault—we spoke out of turn, and we deeply regret it. Please, help us convince your husband to resume supplying pork to the housing complex. You’re such a gracious lady; surely you wouldn’t hold a grudge against us.”

“Yes, yes! I even gave my son a stern talking-to! When your husband gets back, we’ll drag those kids over to apologize properly. Please accept this dried fish—it’s the best from our family. We hope you’ll take it.”

The crowd surged closer, each trying to hand over their gifts first.

Gu Zi hesitated to open the gate, worried they might overwhelm her. Just as she was about to speak, the roar of a car engine cut through the chatter.

A taxi pulled up across the street, and from it emerged Lin Miao and her mother, Zhang Mei.
