Female Novel
Chapter 182
As soon as she mentioned Chu Feng, Zhou Ying’s face flushed and her eyes brimmed with tears. Shewas 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 ChuFeng, 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? Doyou still have feelings for him and planning to get back with him? Are you planning to cheat onMingxuan?”
Sun Mingxuan looked extremely distressed; he had long since suspected that something was going onbetween 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 thenecklace and her eyes were filled with greed. “Didn’t you say this was from your brother as yourwedding 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 couldeasily cost several hundred thousands. Even as the matriarch of the Sun family, she only owned a fewof 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 toher. 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 staggeredbackward 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 placein 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 couldyou marry into the Sun family while wearing a jewelry that was given by another man? How could yoube 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 grumbledsoftly, “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 returnit to you. Don’t be so stubborn.”
Zhou Ying clutched her bruised face and she was tearing up. At this moment, she had already gonenumb with disappointment that she just mechanically nodded.
“Humph, you worthless scamp! Those who spare the rod, spoil the child.” Tang’e clapped her handsand 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, lookingpleased. 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 looksgood 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 whenyou make your appearance.” novelbin
Tang’e became more smug as she tried on all the accessories that were given by Chu Feng to ZhouYing 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 intothe 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 hadgiven the Sun family three million in dowry anyway and that amount was enough for her to splurge.
