Master Head of the Dragon Soul

Chapter 182

As soon as she mentioned Chu Feng, Zhou Ying’s face flushed and her eyes brimmed with tears. She was moved and she felt extremely thankful.

“Your brother? Oh, I remember now. I heard the Zhou family had adopted a kid by the name of Chu Feng, and I heard that the both of you were childhood sweethearts?”

Tang’e took a quick glance at Zhou Ying who looked embarrassed and smiled coldly. “What is this? Do you still have feelings for him and planning to get back with him? Are you planning to cheat on Mingxuan?” Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

Sun Mingxuan looked extremely distressed; he had long since suspected that something was going on between Chu Feng and Zhou Ying. Now that he had seen it for himself, how could he not be furious?

“No, it's not like that.” Zhou Ying was panicking as she tried to explain herself.

“It's not like that? Then take it off now!” Tang’e imposed her will on Zhou Xuan as she pointed at the necklace and her eyes were filled with greed. “Didn’t you say this was from your brother as your wedding gift? Since it’s a dowry, then hand it over to us, we will help you to take care of it.”

She had taken a glimpse at all the jewelries. All those were high-end products and each of them could easily cost several hundred thousands. Even as the matriarch of the Sun family, she only owned a few of such accessories.

Wouldn’t it be a waste if such high-end beauties were given to a little girl like Zhou Ying?

Zhou Xuan bit her lips and hung her head as she held onto the necklace that was on her neck tightly; she was feeling upset and sorrowful.

This necklace wasn’t just an expensive jewelry, it was also a memorabilia which Chu Feng had given to her. There was a significance behind this necklace for Zhou Ying.

She mustered all her courage and said, “Aunty, I cannot give you this necklace. My brother—”

Smack! Tang’e raised her hand and gave Zhou Ying a slap across her face. Zhou Ying staggered backward and a red handprint emerged on her cheeks instantly.

“You slut, you keep mentioning about your brother again and again. Does Mingxuan even have a place in your heart? Don’t you have any sense of propriety?”

Tang’e scowled at Zhou Ying and stared her down as she reprimanded her shamelessly, “How could you marry into the Sun family while wearing a jewelry that was given by another man? How could you be such a slut? Don’t you have any dignity left inside of you?”

“Yingying.” At this moment, Sun Mingxuan ran over to Zhou Ying and helped her up. He then grumbled softly, “You’ve asked for it, all of these wouldn’t have happened if you had just given mum the jewelry. Mum only wants what’s best for us. She is just helping us to take care of it, it's not like she won’t return it to you. Don’t be so stubborn.”

Zhou Ying clutched her bruised face and she was tearing up. At this moment, she had already gone numb with disappointment that she just mechanically nodded.

“Humph, you worthless scamp! Those who spare the rod, spoil the child.” Tang’e clapped her hands and she was feeling satisfied. She waved to the saleswoman who was in a state of shock and instructed her, “Go, take these, and these, and all the other jewelries and help me to wrap them up.”

She even yanked the priceless diamond necklace off Zhou Ying’s neck and put it onto herself, looking pleased. She even did a few twirls in front of the mirror, showing the necklace off.

The other two aunties also started laughing and flattering her by saying, “Sister, the necklace looks good on you. The design and style look like they had been tailor-made for you.”

“That’s right, sister. On the day of Mingxuan’s wedding, you will surely be the centre of attention when you make your appearance.”

Tang’e became more smug as she tried on all the accessories that were given by Chu Feng to Zhou Ying one by one, as if they all belonged to her. After that, her mood improved significantly.

Indeed, these high-end jewelries were only fit to be worn by a lady of her status and reputation.

How would a tramp like Zhou Ying who came from a lowly family be worthy of wearing them?

A tramp who came from a dirt-poor family was already considered to be lucky to be able to marry into the Sun family, surely she shouldn’t ask for more?

“Come, let's go and buy some custom-made dresses and cheongsams to match these jewelries with. These high-end jewelries must not lose their value.”

Tang’e felt content as she squinted her eyes and admired the jade bangle on her wrist. Zhou Lie had given the Sun family three million in dowry anyway and that amount was enough for her to splurge.
