Jiang Xue looked at Shen Xi suspiciously. “What nonsense are you talking about? I’ve never owned anything. Other than being poor, I have nothing.”

“Aren’t you curious about where my tuition fees came from? I’ll tell you the truth. It came from the things you threw away.” Shen Xi laughed.

“The thing I threw?” Jiang Xue muttered with a confused expression.

“Do you remember that my mom gave you a box full of jewellery, diamonds, and gold?” Shen Xi kindly explained. “Do you still remember the box of keys my dad gave you? Although I haven’t seen what type of yacht and helicopter my dad’s keys are for, I used my Mom’s jewellery and sold a few of them. I successfully went to school.”

Jiang Xue’s body trembled slightly and she staggered a few steps back. She still questioned in disbelief, “Impossible, are you lying to me?

Shen Xi smiled brightly. “Why would I lie to you? Otherwise, where would I get the money to go to school? You’re the one who doesn’t want it. You can’t blame others, Jiang Xue. If you had cherished my Mom’s kindness and didn’t throw it away, you wouldn’t have let me off so easily. If you cherish my Mom’s kindness and take these things away as mementoes, my mother will never take them back even if she knows that you’re not her biological daughter.”

Jiang Xue was stunned and her head was buzzing. That big box of jewellery and that golden gold bar, she actually thought that they were fake and even threw them away.

But she could not be blamed for this. At that time, the Shen Familys situation was very poor. If anything of high value suddenly appeared, normal people would think that it was plastic from somewhere. Who would believe that it was real jewellery?

Jiang Xue muttered, “No normal person would believe that so many valuable things would appear in a poor family.”

Jiang Xue raised her head and looked at Shen Xi as if she wanted to get the same answer as Shen Xi. She asked, “You won’t believe it either, right?”

Shen Xi smiled and said, “Indeed, I don’t believe it either. But this is a gift from my Mom. I cherish it. Even if it’s fake, I’m still very happy.”

Lu Shan did not expect Shen Xi to not believe that the items were real either. However, she still carefully kept those items that Shen Xi thought were fake.

This made Lu Shan feel warm in her heart.

Jiang Xue looked at Shen Xi, then turned to Lu Shan and said, “Since I didn’t get what I deserve, Mom, why don’t you make it up to me? Two days later, you and I will be interviewed by the reporters. Tell everyone that you are Lin Lu, that those paintings were my ideas, and that you plagiarized them, okay?”

Shen Xi angrily stepped forward and blocked Lu Shan, rebuking Jiang Xue, “Jiang Xue, you’re delusional.”

Jiang Xue raised her gaze slightly and said to Shen Xi, “And you, Shen Xi. I didn’t want your jewellery, so you could take it and enjoy it. In the end, it was still mine in the beginning. How about this, in order to thank me for the wealth I left you, you help me draw. You can paint for me for the rest of my life. Consider it an exchange. You won’t lose out.”

As if she suddenly thought of something, Jiang Xue continued, “Also, if you help me, you won’t be able to draw using your own name in the future. The people at Pingxi Appraisal Center were very smart. They would be able to identify it. So, I’ll use that box of jewellery to exchange for your painting skills for the rest of your life. It’s a good deal, right? After all, some artists might not be able to earn that much money in their lifetime.”

The three of the Shen family never expected Jiang Xue to say such shameless words. Not only did she want Lu Shan to admit that she had plagiarized, but she also wanted Shen Xi to help her paint for the rest of her life.

Shen Yan said rudely to Jiang Xue, “Impossible. Jiang Xue, don’t go too far. Otherwise, don’t blame me for disregarding our eighteen years of friendship and being impolite to you.”

How could Shen Yan tolerate bullying his wife and child? He really did not expect that the child he had educated for eighteen years would turn out to be such a shameless person. This made Shen Yan feel mixed feelings and very uncomfortable.

Jiang Xue suddenly pushed away Shen Xi and Shen Yan, who were blocking Lu Shan. She knelt in front of Lu Shan and begged with tears in her eyes, “Mom, I beg you. Please help me. For the sake of our 18 years together, please save me. Otherwise, I’m really done for this time.”

Lu Shan looked at the girl kneeling in front of her with a troubled expression. This was the child she had brought up. From the time she staggered to the time she stood tall and slim, her daughter had always been by her side.

Shen Xi saw Lu Shan’s expression and knew that things were going to be bad. Lu Shan’s heart softened..
